Chapter 151: Hospital Visit

~17 min read 3,353 words

"The first one is the hospital. You can be kind enough to tell Ji Xiaoling her new title."

"You really are wicked!"

Ji Xiaoling was struck by lightning yesterday. Not only did her face have problems, she even lost all her hair and was currently receiving treatment at the hospital. If she got so angry hearing this news that something went wrong with her?

That would be wonderful!

Ye Shu almost wanted to jump up and run over to the hospital. As long as no one stopped him, he could recite it in Ji Xiaoling's ear all day long!

"What about the second one? I already can't wait to go to the hospital and explain things to Ji Xiaoling!"

"Qin Yuanjun caused trouble last time and gets kicked out of his house every day to kneel at the door — it's become a sight to see!"

If the Qin family didn't only have Qin Yuanjun as their sole heir, and he didn't have a good mother, with all the things he'd done, he would have long been cast out of the house, keeping only the child and losing the father.

"After visiting the patient, go see the sights — hmm, very reasonable!"

Ye Shu eagerly rushed out of the office and drove to the hospital. On the way, Su Yu, worried that he'd get kicked out before he could finish speaking, called him and came up with a good idea. Ye Shu thought it was somewhat useful, so he had his newly assigned assistant handle a few things, and he and the assistant would meet up at the hospital.

Carrying the pink gift box the assistant gave him, Ye Shu pressed the elevator button and arrived at the floor of Ji Xiaoling's ward. He had only taken a few steps out of the elevator when he was stopped by bodyguards.

"Hello, this is the VIP ward. Unauthorized persons may not enter!"

"I'm here to visit a patient! Isn't Ji Xiaoling on this floor? Did she transfer hospitals again?"

The bodyguard looked at Ye Shu's hand holding only a pink gift box, not quite believing him. Previously, several reporters had sneaked in and disturbed the employer. Therefore, anyone visiting a patient needed to make an appointment with the employer's family. The person before him was dressed very well, but no appointment had been mentioned.

The bodyguard was just about to turn hostile and drag him into the elevator when he saw Ye Shu walking toward the elevator.

"Ah, Old Ren, thank goodness you're here! This bodyguard won't let me in! I'll carry them! I'll carry them!"

Ye Shu saw Ren Tandu step out of the elevator, wearing a sour face and radiating an aura of "cross me and die," and he immediately went over and grabbed hold of two flower baskets.

Ren Tandu was in a bad mood. Seeing Ye Shu volunteer to be the little brother carrying flower baskets, he let go, but didn't answer him.

"Slap!"

Ren Tandu slapped the appointment card onto the desk.

Ye Shu leaned in to take a look and thought to himself, no wonder these bodyguards had such bad attitudes — so you needed an appointment to come here!

The bodyguard checked the appointment card, which had the Tang Family and the Ren Family written on it. He immediately opened the barrier behind him. "Please, gentlemen!"

Ye Shu, who clearly saw the bodyguard's action:...

With such a big production, he suspected he'd caused trouble — could he really leave in one piece?

Having come all this way but not being able to fire off a few verbal jabs, Ye Shu felt absolutely miserable!

From the corner of his eye, Ye Shu caught a glimpse of the box and felt a bit more at ease.

Good thing he had a backup plan!

Ye Shu cheerfully followed Ren Tandu inside. Ren Tandu stood expressionless not far from Ji Xiaoling's hospital bed, reciting the script his family had given him.

"Miss Ji, I'm very sorry. Children don't know any better and like to talk nonsense. She didn't do it on purpose. On behalf of..."

Looking at Ren Tandu's deadpan face, which looked like he was reading a eulogy, Ji Xiaoling was so angry she covered herself with the blanket on the spot. But that cold voice still drilled into her ears!

She endured it for a while, but simply couldn't take it anymore! Was he trying to apologize or to torture someone?

"That's enough, please leave!"

She even suspected the Ren Family and Tang Family of doing it on purpose!

Deliberately sending Ren Tandu, a hell-level sharp-tongued person, to apologize to her — were they planning to have Ren Tandu anger her to death if she didn't forgive them?

If they genuinely wanted to apologize, they should have called Tang Can over and let her, the wronged party, dish out the punishment!

Hearing these words, Ren Tandu didn't hesitate for even a second. He turned around and left.

Hearing two sets of footsteps receding, Ji Xiaoling lifted the blanket and looked over to where the gifts were placed — there were now two flower baskets and a pink box.

She pressed the call button at the head of the bed. "Come here!"

A nurse timidly ran to the ward door, then tiptoed over. "Miss Ji, what are your instructions?"

"Bring that flower basket and the pink box over here!"

The nurse respectfully placed the two flower baskets and a box in front of Ji Xiaoling. Ji Xiaoling rummaged through the flower baskets — just some fruit and decorative flowers.

She knocked the flower baskets to the floor. "Disgusting!"

Saying apologies with their mouths, but not necessarily meaning it in their hearts!

Ji Xiaoling angrily picked up her phone and dialed a number back. "Grandpa, the Tang Family and the Ren Family have no sincerity at all! They just gave me a lousy flower basket!"

Several people from their circle who had just arrived at the ward entrance, carrying the same lousy flower baskets:...

To be honest, this time Ji Xiaoling could be said to have brought it upon herself. They came to visit her only out of politeness and normal social interaction between families, bringing a flower basket as a token gesture.

The Tang Family child had a sharp tongue, but what she said made a lot of sense! The two Lin Family children's actions were truly excessive. If it were the Ji Family, could the Ji Family tolerate it?

If the Ji Family truly felt the Tang Family child was wrong, why not release the video and let public opinion correct the Tang Family's parenting methods?

"Grandpa, they're just looking down on me! Waaah, ah, ah~ah!"

Everyone present who heard Ji Xiaoling's crying uniformly shuddered. What sins had they committed to have to listen to this demonic crying?

Something might have been said on the other end of the phone, because Ji Xiaoling closed her mouth and didn't make that strange wailing cry anymore. She smiled smugly, put down her phone, and began unwrapping the pink box. She tossed the pink wrapping paper onto the floor with a look of disgust!

"Mentally problematic"

"What are you all blocking the way here for?"

Two voices rang out at the same time. The former stopped abruptly, and the owner of the voice snapped their head around.

The latter was the Qi family's eldest daughter-in-law, Wei Huan. She had come on her parents-in-law's orders to visit this prospective third younger sister-in-law. The Qi family had calculated well. Ji Xiaoling's reputation was so poor right now, and their Qi Yinghao wasn't unworthy of her either. From the looks of it, it would be a bit difficult for Ji Xiaoling to find someone with better conditions than Qi Yinghao, so the two families might as well make do.

From far away she saw this group of people standing at the door, and when she got closer they were still at the door. Was there something special inside the room? Or had something happened?

Wei Huan, considering herself one family with Ji Xiaoling, shouted very loudly.

Ji Xiaoling stared grimly at the group of people standing outside with uncomfortable expressions for over ten seconds, then viciously hurled the pink box at the nurse's face. "Have you gone mute? There are guests and you don't know how to receive them!"

"I'm sorry! It's my fault! I'll go make tea right away. Please wait a moment, everyone!"

The nurse clutched her struck face and rushed out quickly. The people who had been blocking the doorway made a path for her.

Wei Huan walked in along the path that had been cleared for her and saw two smashed flower baskets on the floor. She was holding the same kind in her hand...

Ji Xiaoling followed Wei Huan's gaze downward, then saw the preserved flowers that had fallen out of the box.

Ji Xiaoling instantly connected them to her face and her backing. "Trash! Ye Shu, you bastard!"

Ji Xiaoling's shrill scream echoed through the entire hospital.

Wei Huan was startled by her. Those preserved flowers looked quite nice. From the label on the box's outer packaging, this should be that brand's preserved flower gift box. All in all, giving this kind of gift was reasonable. She didn't understand why Ji Xiaoling was screaming and shouting?

The people standing outside didn't understand either!

A new batch of patients arrived, and seeing the army of patients blocking the way, they had a bad premonition. Sure enough, before they could even walk over, they heard shouts of "Doctor, nurse! Emergency!"

"What happened?"

Those who came later found a familiar friend to ask for news.

Someone whispered in their ear.

"What? Then we still have to wait here?"

"Don't know!"

Some held high status at home, weren't afraid of Ji Xiaoling, left their flower baskets or fruit baskets there and left. Some feared Ji Xiaoling would cause trouble and could only stay here and wait.

Wei Huan also wanted to leave. But after she called her parents-in-law and explained the situation, they wanted her to stay and take charge.

Wei Huan looked at the ladies and young ladies with faces full of reluctance, feeling bitter inside. Take charge? Getting dirty looks was more like it!

Ji Xiaoling was soon wheeled out. The people present waited for her to wake up, each offered a word of comfort, then ran off, afraid that if they were too slow they'd be forced to listen to Ji Xiaoling's veiled insults!

Wei Huan stayed until the end. "Miss Ji, I—"

Ji Xiaoling snapped, "Get out!"

Wei Huan, who had just helped Ji Xiaoling pour water, identify people, and record visiting guests:...

She really deserved to die!

Why did she have to be so proactive in helping? Wouldn't it have been better to tell her parents-in-law that she'd been kicked out?

If Ji Xiaoling became her third sister-in-law, she might gain another mother-in-law to serve!

Wei Huan felt suffocated just thinking about it. She planned to go home and discuss it properly with her husband. If Qi Yinghao really married Ji Xiaoling, would the Qi family still be his Qi family?

"Madam Qi, I'm truly sorry. Our child is too thoughtless. Thank you for your hard work just now!"

After Xiao Fang finished speaking, she tried to slip onto Wei Huan's wrist the bracelet that the Ji Family had passed down for daughters-in-law.

Wei Huan looked at the famous "gentle and virtuous" Mrs. Ji in their circle, the hair on her back standing on end.

"No need, Mrs. Ji. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first!"

Xiao Fang watched Wei Huan flee as if flying, her expression dissatisfied. "So rude!"

"As if anyone can't see through your little calculations!"

Ji Xiaoling hated her mother the most! If she had a family background comparable to her Third Aunt's or brothers as formidable as her Second Aunt's family, the one to inherit the vast Ji Family estate should be their first household! After inheriting the family fortune, as the legitimate daughter of the first household, would she still need to worry about marriage?

"I'm doing this all for you! Only the title of family head's wife is worthy of you! If you don't suppress Wei Huan now, how will you have a good life after marrying in?"

"I don't want to marry that scum!"

Xiao Fang didn't want her daughter to marry Qi Yinghao either, but they had no choice now. The paths they'd chosen before were all blocked!

"Be good. If you don't like it, you can always divorce!"

Xiao Fang spoke as she picked up the documents that had been pushed to the corner.

"What is this? Read it to Mommy."

Ji Xiaoling rolled her eyes with a wooden face. "Useless, after all these years you still can't read?!"

"If Mommy knew everything, where would your grandfather's guilt toward our family come from?"

Xiao Fang called a nurse in and asked her to adjust Ji Xiaoling's hospital bed and prop her up. During this, Ji Xiaoling got angry and furiously pelted the nurse's face with fruit from the fruit basket by the bed.

Seeing the nurse finish her work, Xiao Fang hurriedly held Ji Xiaoling back. "Alright, baby, I know you're sick and short-tempered, but don't hurt others!"

The nurse standing in place didn't feel grateful to Xiao Fang at all. What did it mean for this old woman to come out and say that after she'd already been hit?

After the nurse left the ward, Ji Xiaoling casually grabbed a page. "Saintly Mother of a Wealthy Family, Ji?"

Ji Xiaoling snatched those papers into her hands and read through them carefully! She didn't believe it! This wasn't real!

After reading with trembling hands, Ji Xiaoling's eyes rolled back and she fainted on the spot.

"Doctor!"

"Nurse!"

"Someone come!"

Su Clan Group

Su Yu heard Wulongcha's broadcast and laughed heartily inside.

【Hahaha! Get angry, anger her to death! Best that her face gets twisted from anger and never recovers!】

Su Yu thought, if she weren't afraid of innocent people being retaliated against, she'd want to loop the video of her face-changing in front of Ji Xiaoling every single day. That would be so satisfying!

【What a pity, the Ji Family arranged bodyguards. Can't get in now.】

Wulongcha nodded and also felt it was a pity. Thinking of the current situation, it said, 【I wonder if the reporter still wants to risk sneaking into the hospital. It's quite chaotic to manage right now!】

Ji Xiaoling looked down on those flowers and fruits, but someone appreciated them!

While Ji Xiaoling was in surgery, a habitual hospital thief slipped into her ward, stuffed a sack full of fruits and gift boxes as if stocking up, disguised himself as a cleaner, and prepared to leave.

Unfortunately, he was too greedy. One fruit rolled out and was spotted by a bodyguard.

Now the bodyguards were catching thieves in the hospital, and a large crowd of visitors was squeezed at the VIP ward entrance, queuing for verification. Some people impatiently tossed fruit at the bodyguards and just left.

【The reporter wouldn't see much even after getting news and entering the hospital, right? Didn't they say the bodyguards are still guarding the door and not letting those visitors in?】

Su Yu couldn't understand it. With Ji Xiaoling having bodyguards block things like this, wasn't she afraid of offending people?

They throw things, and the bodyguards will pick them up and put them in the hospital room. Clever reporters can mix in there and slip in devices like cameras.

Wulongcha, you've learned to be bad!

I just found this method online!

Su Yu felt that there must be another way.

What's Ji Xiaoling like with the doctors and nurses? Can reporters bribe the doctors and nurses?

I don't know!

Wulongcha was in low spirits; its method, Su Yu obviously didn't want to use. Su Yu wasn't happy either, since she hadn't gotten the good news of Ji Xiaoling's disfigurement.

Did Ye Shu go to mock Qin Yuanjun?

He went, and he still wants to bring the video back to show you!

……

Ye Shu discovered that Ren Tiandu, who had been kicked out by Ji Xiaoling, had a wooden, dazed expression, and as he went downstairs he kept worrying about his brother's mental state.

What kind of torment does it take to agree to copy the manuscript?

Ye Shu wanted to watch the spectacle, but Ren Tiandu himself wouldn't cooperate, not speaking to him at all.

"Stop, you really don't intend to go watch the spectacle with me, do you!"

"Not going!"

Ren Tiandu said he wasn't going, but in his heart he wanted to. Going home he'd have to watch Tang Can stick to Tang Tang, which is really annoying!

Ye Shu pulled him, not letting him get in the car, "Come on, let's go!"

"At the hospital entrance, don't tug!"

Many people looked at their pair with strange eyes. Ren Tiandu really wanted to say, his sharp tongue wasn't entirely his fault! Look at Ye Shu's behavior—isn't he just asking for a scolding?

And not long after Ye Shu stopped tugging with Ren Tiandu, he received a message from his older female cousin.

"Hahaha, knowing she's unhappy makes me feel relieved!"

Ye Shu thought, in such a short time, if it could be confirmed as his gift, it was probably those fake flowers? Ye Shu really hoped she would stomp the box to pieces, so no one would know the box had been tampered with!

Just thinking about what comes next, Ji Xiaoling might still get angry, and Ye Shu became excited, trembling all over!

He had carefully placed the things Su Yu specifically entrusted to him, keeping them for Ji Xiaoling to see later. Now the box is gone, so basically no one will know who put it there!

Ye Shu felt happy, so he went up to ask Ren Tiandu, "I see you're also in a bad mood—why don't you want to go with me to watch the spectacle of Qin Yuanjun? After watching Ji Xiaoling's spectacle, my mood improved a lot!"

Ye Shu didn't understand. Before this guy came, he didn't know what torment he had suffered; after much persuasion, he only managed to spit out two words: "Not going."

Afterward, his speech was back to normal!

He used to be a venom-spraying machine—whoever dared to speak, he'd spray them; now he's as silent as someone practicing closed-mouth meditation, not opening his mouth.

Ren Tiandu gave Ye Shu a sideways glance, "I've been tired of it for a long time!"

"What, are you not my brother? You're tired of it and didn't even call me!"

Ren Tiandu was about to scold Ye Shu, but thinking about why he came here, he forced out a stiff sentence: "Aren't you busy getting married?"

"Brother, your skills have declined lately; if it were before, you'd have scolded me!"

Ren Tiandu fell silent. He thought, as long as he corrected himself and stopped being sharp-tongued, there wouldn't be Tang Can learning from him, and the one getting beaten wouldn't be him!

"Come on, let's go—being tired of it doesn't matter, we can watch again! If you're in a bad mood, go scold him! If you scold him, Uncle Qin will even thank you!"

Ren Tiandu not being sharp-tongued made Ye Shu a little afraid. Could this brother of his have some psychological problem?

Indeed, the stifled Ren Tiandu felt it made sense, and followed Ye Shu to the outside of the Qin family's main gate to watch the spectacle.

"Yo, this time there are two of you?"

Ye Shu opened his phone to record a video. Even if his wife doesn't like to watch, Su Yu doesn't either, but there are still netizens! Sending it to Meng Xianle for them to operate, it's another big scoop!
