When Mama Zhang arrived, Hai Xiaotang was leaning on the headboard, lost in thought.
"Miss, what happened? How did you get injured?" Mama Zhang asked with a combination of surprise and concern.
Hai Xiaotang smiled, "I just ran into some trouble..."
She then briefly recounted the incident.
Mama Zhang shivered after hearing what happened, "Miss, please avoid going out alone at night in the future. It's too dangerous."
"Mm, I won't," replied Hai Xiaotang, nodding slightly.
"Miss, did they catch the culprit?"
"I'm not sure, I don't think they have yet." Hai Xiaotang's response was cut off by the arrival of Qiao Ning.
"Xiaotang, how are you? Are your injuries serious?" Qiao Ning rushed over with concern evident in her voice.
It was not her fault for being late.
She had not been able to fall asleep the previous night, and then overslept this morning.
Hai Xiaotang laughed, "I'm fine, it's just a minor injury. What about you? Are you hurt?"
