Chapter 792 Shameless
Bai Yi also came to the hospital today. She bought some things and wanted to visit He Fen.
I also chatted with her about her relationship with Wang Ye.
Bai Yi knew that He Fen did this simply because of her; she wanted to tell He Fen her thoughts so that she would stop putting pressure on Wang Ye.
She was standing in front of the nurses' station, about to ask He Fen which ward she was in, when she heard Zhou Yi's voice.
"Nurse, may I ask you something..."
Bai Yi turned her head and saw that it really was Zhou Yi. She looked surprised and asked, "Attorney Zhou, what are you doing here?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Yi's eyes, and he said, "I've come to visit a colleague. What about you?"
“My husband’s mother is in the hospital, and I came to visit her.”
The two chatted briefly, and just then the nurse told Bai Yi which room He Fen's ward number was. She then said to Zhou Yi, "Then, Attorney Zhou, I'll be going now."
"good."
Bai Yi turned around, but before he could even move, he saw He Fen and Zhou Hui standing a few meters away.
Just as Bai Yi was wondering why Zhou Hui had come, He Fen, whom she was supporting, rushed up without saying a word and slapped Bai Yi hard across the face!
"I knew you were up to no good! Sure enough, now you've shown your true colors, daring to be all lovey-dovey with some random man in broad daylight! Do you really think our Xiao Ye is dead?!"
He Fen's slap was quite forceful, and the loud sound startled everyone else.
Zhou Hui, who was standing behind her, felt her heart skip a beat.
However, her gaze quickly followed He Fen's words about a "wild man" and turned to Zhou Yi beside her.
Zhou Yi happened to glance at her, and even though they were far apart, Zhou Hui could clearly see how somber his expression was.
Zhou Yi only glanced at her before looking away. He took two steps toward Bai Yi and asked her with concern, "Are you alright?"
Bai Yi was stunned by He Fen's slap and it took him a while to recover.
The handprint on her fair cheek was particularly noticeable.
She tucked the stray hairs that had fallen across her face behind her ears, trying to suppress her trembling voice, "Auntie, I didn't do anything to betray Wang Ye."
Like a shrew, He Fen pointed angrily at Zhou Yi behind her and demanded, "No? Then who is this man? Do you really think I'm blind? Can't you two have seen how close you were just now?"
"We're just colleagues. We only exchanged a couple of words. With so many eyes watching, what do you think I could do?"
"Do you need to stand so close to talk? Do you think I'm a fool? I'm warning you, Bai Yi, if you want to hook up with other men, I won't stop you. You'd better get a divorce from my son as soon as possible. You can do whatever you want, hook up with as many men as you want! But if you cheat on my son in broad daylight, I will definitely not let you off easily!"
Bai Yi couldn't help but clench her fingers.
He Fen slandered her without distinguishing right from wrong, showing no regard for her feelings, leaving her so embarrassed that she could hardly lift her head.
But compared to that, it was her slander of completely unrelated people that made Bai Yi feel even worse.
She took a deep breath, and even though He Fen didn't believe her, Bai Yi wanted to explain clearly.
“Auntie, I’ve already said that I didn’t do anything to wrong Wang Ye. If you insist on using this to convict me, then I have nothing to say. The innocent are innocent, and I won’t explain anything further.”
As more and more people gathered to watch, Bai Yi decided he didn't want to be laughed at any longer.
She quickly composed herself, intending to leave first and apologize to Zhou Yi later.
He Fen had finally caught Bai Yi red-handed, so how could she let it go so easily?
She grabbed Bai Yi, preventing her from leaving, "Where are you going? Are you feeling guilty?"
Bai Yi said weakly, "I explained, but you wouldn't listen."
"If you have nothing between you and him, do you need to explain? You say you have nothing between you and him, but is that really true? Can you guarantee that he doesn't have those kinds of feelings for you?"
Bai Yi stared wide-eyed in disbelief. She quickly glanced at Zhou Yi, then said to He Fen, "Auntie, Lawyer Zhou and I are just friends. You can say whatever you want, but isn't it disrespectful to speak to an innocent person like that?"
It would have been better if she hadn't said anything; He Fen took her words as an excuse to cover up the truth.
At the same time, she was certain that what she said was correct.
"They say it takes two to tango, and flies don't land on eggs without cracks. If you really have no feelings for her at all, why would she have feelings for you? Stop making excuses and tell me honestly, when exactly did you start cheating on my Xiaoye?"
Bai Yi was speechless and Zhou Yi was still standing there. He was unjustly slandered by He Fen, which made Bai Yi feel very ashamed.
Seeing the conflict escalating, Zhou Hui, who had been standing behind He Fen, quickly stepped forward.
She pulled He Fen away to ease the tension between them. "Auntie, you've misunderstood Miss Bai. She's not that kind of person. I know Miss Bai's friend too; she's not the kind of person with questionable character. Besides, Miss Bai is already married to Wang Ye, how could she possibly do such a thing?"
In front of Zhou Hui, He Fen showed no respect for Bai Yi. Instead, she said to Zhou Hui, "Huihui, you don't understand my daughter-in-law at all. Ever since she married Xiao Ye, men have been coming up to her every few days. There's her ex-boyfriend, the biological father of her child, and now a so-called colleague. You might say it's a coincidence once or twice, but is it a coincidence every time?"
He Fen glared at Bai Yi and said through gritted teeth, "It must be because she hasn't completely broken off with those men that they've come after her!"
To embarrass Bai Yi so much in front of everyone is worse than slapping her across the face.
Zhou Hui gently advised, "Auntie, you're overthinking it. It's normal for Miss Bai to know more people because of her work. You know, I meet far more men every day than Miss Bai, but that doesn't mean I have anything going on with them!"
"It's not surprising that you don't even have a boyfriend and know a lot of men, but she's different. She's married and still does things like this. That's shameless!"
Bai Yi clenched his fist tightly, his nails digging deep into his flesh.
"Okay, Auntie, don't be angry. There are so many people here. Let's talk about it back in the ward, okay?"
He Fen's expression softened considerably after Zhou Hui's words of advice.
She glared at Bai Yi and said sarcastically, "Do you see clearly? This is what a proper young lady should be like. If you can't get rid of your bad habits, you should divorce Xiao Ye as soon as possible. There are plenty of people who want to be with our Xiao Ye!"
