Chapter 496 A hopeless idiot

Xia Luoluo was completely devastated!

She said tremblingly, "I'm easily frightened, please don't joke with me, Mr. Li. I'm easily scared."

"You're really bold to do something like harming someone behind their back. Since you brought it up, it means you must have a foolproof plan. I'd like to know what you're planning to do?" Li Yancheng asked.

Xia Luoluo bit her lip tightly. She wasn't stupid. If she continued to argue with Li Yancheng about this issue, wouldn't that confirm his intention to harm Xia Ningxi?

Given Xia Ningxi's current status in the capital, not to mention whether Huo Nanxiao would be furious if he found out about this, Qiu Shiming would definitely not let her off the hook if he did. Xia Luoluo wouldn't dare to cause trouble for herself.

"I don't know what Young Master Li is talking about, please don't make things difficult for me." Xia Luoluo's tone was very firm.

Li Yancheng sneered: "That's true. It's normal for an idiot like you who can't stand up to scrutiny to be stupid. It's not normal for you to forget what you said as soon as you turn your back."

Xia Luoluo's lips twitched, and her whole face turned extremely ugly. This was the first time in her life that she had been humiliated like this. She was so angry that her face was stiff and her fists were clenched tightly.

Xia Wanwan knew her sister was wrong, but even so, it was none of Li Yancheng's place to criticize her.

"Are all members of the Li family as sharp-tongued as Young Master Li?" Xia Wanwan asked.

Li Yancheng laughed: "It's none of your business what you two sisters did."

"What did we do? What gives Young Master Li the right to slander us? Do you have any evidence?" Xia Wanwan questioned.

Li Yancheng sneered: "Want evidence? It's easy. If I want to, I can easily access the hospital's surveillance footage. What you two just said will be clear in no time."

"What was said is not important. What is important is that we did nothing. Xia Luoluo was certainly wrong, but the lesson I, as her older sister, have taught her is enough. There is no need for outsiders to interfere." Xia Wanwan was very protective of her.

Li Yancheng's gaze shifted from Xia Luoluo to Xia Wanwan, "Why are you so determined to come to the hospital? Who are you trying to impress?"

Xia Wanwan also lost her temper: "Li Yancheng, I don't think I've ever offended you. I haven't even settled the score with you for throwing me into the water to feed the fish last time. How dare you cause me trouble?"

“You haven’t offended me, but unfortunately, Huo Nanxiao has. As retribution, it’s not unreasonable for me to target you.” Li Yancheng said calmly, not feeling that he had done anything wrong.

Xia Wanwan was furious: "Is this how the Li family bullies others?"

“Yes, that’s how I bully others, so what’s the problem?” Li Yancheng retorted.

Xia Wanwan's haggard and pale face was forced to turn a little blood red by Li Yancheng's anger, the kind of anger that rises to the heart and rage over the heart!

"Luo Luo, let's go, don't bother with people like this." Xia Wanwan called out to Xia Luo Luo and prepared to leave.

Li Yancheng watched the two figures leave, let out a cold snort, and entered the elevator.

Yao Qing followed closely behind, adding, "Young Master Li, the operating room is on the second floor. Shall we go now?"

"Hmm," Li Yancheng responded indifferently.

Yao Qing pressed the floor button.

The elevator doors closed.

Xia Wanwan and Xia Luoluo didn't go far. Knowing that Li Yancheng was going to see Xia Ningxi for surgery, they were both very worried.

Xia Luoluo asked, "Sister, will he tell Young Master Huo?"

"He's a grown man, he shouldn't be gossiping behind people's backs. And you, really, how could you talk nonsense outside? Now you've been caught red-handed!" Xia Wanwan scolded her.

Xia Luoluo lowered her head: "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, but Li Yancheng really is a gossip. He can cause trouble for us, so he will definitely spread what he heard just now. It's okay that I was scolded by Young Master Huo, but I'm afraid my sister will be implicated as well."

Xia Wanwan: "Forget it, let's turn back and see what Li Yancheng is planning."

The two turned back.

As expected, Li Yancheng was waiting outside Xia Ningxi's operating room, and Huo Nanxiao was also there. The two stared at each other, not knowing what they were doing, and the atmosphere around them was strange and tense.

The dean knew the two had a grudge, and stood between them, wiping away cold sweat.

“Young Master Li, I’ve arranged a lounge for you. Why don’t you move there and have a seat?” the dean suggested.

Li Yancheng asked, "How much longer will Dr. Xia's surgery take?"

The dean said, "There should be about seven or eight hours left."

"So long?" Li Yancheng asked in surprise.

The hospital director said, "This surgery is quite complex. It involves connecting the patient's nerves, blood vessels, and muscles. Every step must be done correctly, so it will take a very long time."

"No wonder you're so shameless, inviting so many media outlets for interviews, just to promote how amazing your hospital is, right?" Li Yancheng asked.

The dean choked and bit his tongue, thinking to himself, "Is Li Yancheng doing this on purpose?"

He gave a forced smile: "Young Master Li has misunderstood."

"What misunderstanding? If that's not what you meant, why make such a big fuss? Aren't you afraid of the surgery failing and you'll be laughed at? Well, it's not like you're the one on the operating table, so even if the surgery fails, it won't be you who's embarrassed." Li Yancheng retorted sarcastically.

The dean wiped away his cold sweat, feeling extremely aggrieved, but he didn't know how to refute it, because everything Li Yancheng said was true. He could only force himself to nod and laugh awkwardly, "Young Master Li is right. I did not consider this point. There are many people here. Why don't you come to my VIP room to sit?"

“Okay.” Li Yancheng readily agreed. He knew that Ninghai Hospital’s VIP room had a holographic projection system that allowed patients to view the surveillance footage from inside the operating room.

The doctors in the operating room were all wearing surgical gowns, their backs to the camera showing how busy they were. Apart from Xia Ningxi, the surgeon, they couldn't tell the others apart or understand them, so they simply didn't bother to look.

Li Yancheng raised an eyebrow and glanced at Huo Nanxiao, saying, "What are you doing here?"

"Xia Ningxi is my wife. Is there a problem with me coming to see her for surgery?" Huo Nanxiao retorted.

Li Yancheng: "Tsk tsk, you even brought your white moonlight with you, you're so affectionate."

"You saw Wanwan?" Huo Nanxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Li Yancheng snorted coldly: "I've seen her. This Miss Xia is really quite capable and has some tricks up her sleeve. No wonder you've taken a liking to her."

"What did she do?" Huo Nanxiao sensed the hidden meaning in his words.

Li Yancheng tilted his head and asked lazily, "You really want to know? I can tell you..."

The last sentence had barely left her lips when the VIP room door was pushed open, and Xia Wanwan, who had returned, appeared outside, looking nervous. She was probably afraid that Li Yancheng would reveal what had just happened, so she had rushed over at top speed.
