Chapter 1428: You Really Have No Shame
Early the next morning, Fu Yan Cheng accompanied Liu Chuxue to the city.
At the entrance of the Rolling Steel Mill Hospital, they met Xia Qiu, who had brought breakfast to replace Xiao Fu: "Sister."
Having received news from her cousin Xiao Wanxia, Xia Qiu was full of gratitude upon seeing Liu Chuxue and her husband: "Liu Chuxue, Fu Yan Cheng, my husband's situation has caused you trouble again this time."
Liu Chuxue saw the smile on her face and knew she had recovered somewhat: "Between sisters, there is no need for such politeness. Let's go and see how my brother-in-law is doing."
"Dad stayed by the bedside last night and asked me to go back to keep Junjun company, fearing he might cause trouble at night."
"Sister, did any of the families who beat him come to apologize?"
Xia Qiu shook her head: "I didn't see anyone before I left yesterday."
As soon as the two entered the Zhuyuan Force, they heard a commotion upstairs: "They were also misled by others. Besides, we all work in the same factory; we see each other every day. How can you be so heartless?"
Hearing this, Xia Qiu's expression changed: "Liu Chuxue, stay back a bit. I heard these people are targeting my brother-in-law. I'll go up and check first."
Liu Chuxue was not in a hurry, after all, given her current situation, she couldn't rush.
Fu Yan Cheng, in his military uniform with a straight posture, said: "Wife, why don't you rest on the chairs over there? I'll go up and see what's happening."
Liu Chuxue felt a bit uneasy: "No need. Let's go up together. With you here, what is there to fear?"
Fu Yan Cheng, however, held her back: "Your situation is special right now. If a conflict breaks out upstairs, I'm afraid you might get bumped or hurt."
Liu Chuxue looked down at her large belly: "Alright, then you go up. I'll wait for you on the bench over there."
Fu Yan Cheng did not go straight upstairs but escorted her to sit first: "Just wait here. I'll come back to get you in a moment."
Watching him leave, she immediately released her spiritual power and saw a crowd gathered in front of the ward on the second floor, near the middle: "Comrade Qiu, we know it's a bit improper to come begging you today, but the factory department said that unless you soften your stance and agree to forgive them, they will be punished according to the rules. The old and young in our families are all waiting to eat. If the three-month bonus is deducted, the family will have nothing but the northwest wind to drink. Please, be kind and agree."
Hearing these words, Xia Qiu was furious: "What are you doing? Is this how you bully people?"
Just moments ago, your men beat my man, and now you are all ganging up to force him to beg for mercy. Your men are human; are we not? Are your eyes blind? Can't you see what state my man was beaten into? How dare you come here to beg?"
"You are not welcome here. Get out immediately."
If it were before, Xia Qiu would not have had the courage to scold people, but she was so angered by these people's shamelessness, and with her sister and brother-in-law right behind her, she had the confidence.
Originally, Qiu Shaofeng had suffered an undeserved disaster, and she was already furious. These people didn't even come to apologize; instead, they wanted to make things difficult for an injured person?
Xiao Fu had been scolding for a while, and now hearing his daughter's words, he said: "Exactly. You really have no shame."
In just this short while, many people had gathered in the corridor, all discussing how these families were acting inhumanely.
One woman, with a crying voice, said: "I would like to buy nutritional products for Comrade Qiu, but my family doesn't have the means. So I brought some vegetables sent by my sister-in-law from the countryside. It is at least a gesture of goodwill from our family."
Among the onlookers, someone with sharp eyes said: "You can't fool people without them seeing. Look at the vegetables in your hand; they are withered. How is this a gesture of goodwill? It's clearly bullying."
