The bruise on Shen Qianshu's back was hurting badly in the afternoon. If she stood too long, it hurt. Furthermore, some equipment used required her to bend forward, making it hurt very badly. Physiological pain naturally made people's temper worse. What was more, she heard nasty comments. That naturally made her furious.
Shen Qianshu took leave from work and went home straight away.
After changing the ointment, she fell into a deep sleep.
Tong Hua returned home and brewed some soup. He did not wake Shen Qianshu up until the soup was brewed. Her mood became much better after the nap. The ointment Ye Ling gave had miraculous effects. The pain was no longer as strong.
"Mommy, are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Shen Qianshu said, smiling while touching Tong Hua's nose. "Don't worry. Mommy's fine."
Tong Hua looked at Shen Qianshu seriously and said, "Mommy, when I'm older, I'll definitely protect you well. Nobody can bully you."
