Chapter 1454: Stop Right There, You Damn It

The deputy battalion commander Qi's wife, seeing her son spitting out water, lunged forward: "Son, Zixuan, how could you..."

Before she could finish, Fu Yan Cheng grabbed her by the back of her collar: "Let him recover first."

At this moment, the several officers who had come with Fu Yan Cheng also spread out and all rushed up to help.

After a while, Qi Zixuan had spit out most of the water in his stomach; hearing his mother's voice, he let out a "Wa!" and burst into tears.

Only then did Fu Yan Cheng release the deputy battalion commander Qi's wife's collar.

She immediately threw herself forward and hugged the child: "Son, you scared your mother to death. Is there anywhere else that hurts?"

Saying this, disregarding what others might say, she directly took off her outer robe and wrapped it around her son, angrily saying: "Didn't I tell you not to play near the water? Why wouldn't you listen?"

But seeing the child's pale little face, her heart ached terribly: "Alright, it's mom's fault. I shouldn't have scolded you. Mom will take you home right now to change clothes."

At this time, another small child also woke up under the relay efforts of the crowd; the child in the water was also rescued and brought up by someone.

Another officer took over, following the young doctor's instructions to perform rescue measures; after all, this was a physically demanding task, and the young doctor had not yet recovered by then.

The crowd, which had been chaotic just moments ago, now all held their breath; after all, among the four children who fell into the water, this child had been submerged the longest.

Even the deputy battalion commander Qi's wife, at this moment, was shivering all over as she clutched her son tightly, staring over here.

Standing in the crowd, Liu Chuxue was also extremely anxious; seeing the child's eyes tightly shut, many women around were wiping away tears.

Liu Chuxue knew this child was likely in grave danger and ultimately would not pass the mental hurdle; she stepped forward a few paces to the child's side; because her belly was too large to squat, she could only kneel on one leg there.

Fu Yan Cheng was startled seeing her like this: "Wife."

He quickly squeezed over: "Wife, what are you doing? Let me handle it."

While they performed CPR on the child, Liu Chuxue used the opportunity to check the child's mouth, intending to let some space-water enter the mouth to test if she could save this child.

However, as soon as her hand touched the child's mouth, a woman squeezed in and slapped Liu Chuxue's hand away: "What are you doing?"

Immediately afterward, she reached out to push someone; if Fu Yan Cheng had not acted fast enough, Liu Chuxue would have been in danger.

Fu Yan Cheng instantly flew into a rage: "You damn it, stop right now!"

Saying this, he stood up and helped Liu Chuxue up from the ground: "Wife, are you alright?"

At this moment, that woman was also held back by others: "What is wrong with you, comrade woman? They are saving a life, and you come up and start hitting people?"

That woman looked at the child still unconscious on the ground: "She's just a woman; what does she know? She just wants to win a good reputation."

After speaking, she pointed at those performing rescue: "On what grounds, when both fell into the water, did you save others first and only save my son last? If anything happens to him, I won't let you off."

As soon as she said this, the onlookers instantly exploded: "Does this woman have a problem with her brain? Who is she?"

At this moment, someone in the middle of the crowd said: "This is the second wife of the eldest son of the Zhang family in Baifu Village."

"So she's a stepmother?"

"No wonder she didn't care about the child first upon arriving."

"This must be an attempt to extort money using the stepson?"

"If it weren't for the soldier comrades diving into the water to save them, all these children would have perished in the river; with so many people watching, how could she extort anything?"
