"Brother, calm down. What Xiao Chi did was too much. If he truly planned the car accident, shouldnāt you say something to him?"
"Second brother, I know Xiao Chi went too far, but the most urgent thing now is to settle the kids down first, then we can slowly deal with their issues. I canāt just watch Xiao Chi drag Xiao Yi down from the army, nor can I let Xiao Yi send Xiao Chi to jail."
Mei Shuqing also showed a worried expression. This situation isnāt good, and itās not good for either of them.
Speaking of the two nephews, he slightly favored Xiao Yi a bit. If the Z City military people come and see Xiao Yi beat Mei Langchi like that, expulsion from the army is certain, even with mediation, the lightest would be a demotion punishment.
Now Xiao Yi is in his development phase; if heās demoted, having a stain on his record will greatly hinder his future promotion.
Also, thereās actually some room for maneuver on Xiao Chiās side; there are still some issues with the evidence, otherwise, the police wouldnāt let Mei Langchi stay in this hospital.
"You do this first: go talk to Xiao Chi, see what heās really thinking. Iāll talk to Xiao Yi here. The old man has woken up, nothing serious, can be discharged soon. Donāt let the two old folks worry about this; theyāre too old to handle it."
"Okay, Iāll go find Xiao Chi now; you try hard to persuade Xiao Yi. This matter is time-sensitive." Mei Shuping is now like an ant on a hot pan, already a mess.
After talking with him, Mei Shuping quickened his pace towards Xiao Chiās ward.
Mei Shuqing sighed standing in place, took out a cigarette from his pocket, frowning in thought for a long time, didnāt hurry to find Han Yi. Instead, he went to the nurseās station and made a phone call.
....
Now, Liang Qian is in the old manās ward, taking care of Mr. Mei. Heās awake now, just short of breath and fainted earlier; now heās fine and doesnāt need hospitalization.
Mei Shuqingās intention was to have the old manās throat checked again; since last time, his throat hasnāt recovered, becoming more hoarse.
After completing the examination, Liang Qian prepared to take him home since the old lady is still at home, and the two old folks need looking after. Without a nanny, the home really canāt be without someone for even a moment.
This year, the orderlies are on vacation as well, coinciding with an especially busy year; itās truly worrying.
Over at Lin Wanās side, in the ward were both moms, Liang Hongmei and Shen Qing. After Hu Lijuan was discharged, she had been busy with matters her brother assigned.
Sheās now waiting for the police to convict and then for the prosecutors to review and approve. She doesnāt need to make an appearance now; she can only stay home and play with Little Star.
...
While Mei Shuping was having a heart-to-heart with Xiao Chi.
Xie Lingzhi, unknown when, called her family, and without warning, seven or eight men and women directly stormed into Lin Wanās ward.
They came to thrash Han Yi brutally.
"Itās him, the illegitimate child Mei Shuping had outside. Since coming to the Mei family, pretending to be one way outwardly but scheming behind othersā backs. First beat Xiao Chi down so he couldnāt get out of bed, today saying our Xiao Chi tried to harm him." Xie Lingzhi said, suddenly pointing at Shen Qing in the room, "Also, this charming woman. Itās her, this bitch, too."
"Xie Lingzhi, what are you doing? You want to incite a mob brawl in broad daylight?" Seeing this, Liang Hongmei frowned, stepping protectively in front of Xiao Wanās bed.
"Stop putting labels on me. Today, I just want to straighten out these two bitches, let them taste some suffering, otherwise they wonāt know the heights of the sky or the depths of the earth. Bullying my son, they also need to know what the consequences are." Xie Lingzhiās eyes were aflame, looking at Han Yi and Shen Qing, already impatient.
"What do you plan to do? I dare anyone to touch my son." Shen Qing saw that they came with bad intentions, each holding a stick. She looked around the room, grabbed a hot water kettle to shield Han Yi.
"Beat them, beat these two shameless beings to death." Xie Lingzhi was waiting for this moment, and with one command, several men stepped forward to grab Shen Qing.
Han Yiās face was cold and inscrutable, full of frost; he pulled Shen Qing behind him, shielding Liang Hongmei and Shen Qing "All of you stay behind, donāt move."
He dodged, avoiding a punch thrown from one of the men in front.
After dodging, Han Yi took away the wooden stick from his hand, pushed them out across the doorway.
Then promptly shut the ward door, pointed at this group, his voice cold, "Today, letās see who dares to lay a hand on me."
