Qin Hao and Hu Mengling were also surprised by their quick return, and were both embarrassed and angry.

Hu Mengling immediately stepped forward and pulled Qin Yanshu back, glaring at Gu Yueming: "That's our own business, what does it have to do with you!"

Gu Yueming: "You..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Sheng stopped him.

She glanced coldly at the disheveled Qin Hao and Hu Mengling: "Do as you please."

He paused, then looked at Qin Yanshu: "Are we leaving or not?"

Qin Yanshu was completely taken aback when Qin Sheng took the initiative to speak to her. She was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered.

She didn't think that Qin Sheng would sympathize with her or help her given their relationship. She felt that Qin Sheng was deliberately making a fool of her, and she was extremely embarrassed and angry: "Mind your own business!"

Qin Sheng's expression softened, and she leaned against the wall, not giving Qin Yanshu another glance.

The pity and heartache that had just risen in Gu Yueming's heart vanished instantly. She glared at Qin Yanshu angrily and said irritably, "Fine, I was meddling. Do whatever you want!"

Qin Yanshu's heart tightened, and she subconsciously wanted to explain, but when she glanced at Qin Sheng beside her, her gaze turned cold.

What difference does it make whether I explain or not?

No matter how well she does, no matter how close her relationship with Gu Yueming was in the past, in Gu Yueming's heart she will never be as good as her biological daughter!

She's just a hypocritical and pretentious woman; why should she explain herself to her?

Qin Yanshu snorted coldly and looked away.

Seeing this, Hu Mengling's anger finally subsided a bit, and she couldn't help but proudly raise her chin at Gu Yueming.

Gu Yueming, who had absolutely no idea what she was trying to say: "..."

It's really confusing.

Not wanting to make a fool of herself in front of Gu Yueming and Qin Sheng, Hu Mengling only glared fiercely at Qin Hao before suppressing her anger.

Just as they were about to say something to ease the awkwardness, the door to the ward not far away suddenly opened, and two equally tall and slender figures walked out of the room.

Hu Mengling and Qin Hao's eyes lit up, and they quickly stepped forward to push past Qin Zheng and his son, trying to enter the room, but were stopped by the two of them.

Qin Hao's expression changed: "Qin Zheng, what do you mean?!"

Qin Zheng said in a cold, deep voice, "Dad doesn't want to see you."

"Impossible!" Qin Hao said firmly, many guesses flashing through his mind. Finally, his eyes widened suddenly: "Has something happened to Dad? Qin Zheng, are you stopping me because you don't want me to see Dad one last time? Do you want to completely seize the Qin family's assets?!"

"I'm telling you, don't even dream about it!"

Family fortune! Family fortune! Family fortune!

Qin Zheng felt the anger he had just suppressed surge up again. He pressed his tongue against his cheek, raised his hand and threw a merciless punch, sending Qin Hao flying.

Still not satisfied, he chased after him and kicked him twice more, Qin Hao even heard the sound of his bones breaking.

His eyes were about to burst: "Qin Zheng!"

Qin Zheng looked at him expressionlessly, his gaze sharper than Qin Hao had ever seen before.

Suddenly, he reached out and picked up Qin Hao, stepped into the ward two rooms away from Qin Yu's, and threw him onto the bed.

"Shi An," Qin Zheng called out.

Qin Shi'an understood, opened his phone and tossed it next to Qin Hao, and a clear conversation immediately came through.

Qin Hao and Hu Mengling, who had followed him in and was about to start cursing, froze, their expressions changing drastically.

After all the audio and video recordings were played, the two of them turned pale and their bodies were trembling uncontrollably.

"It's fake...it's all fake!"

Qin Hao suddenly looked up at Qin Zheng and hurriedly explained, "Second brother, these are all fake! Someone forged these things to sow discord between us brothers. Someone is framing me!"

"You must not believe it, you must not be deceived by outsiders!"

"Brotherly affection." Qin Zheng smiled coldly. "Is there such a thing between us?"

Qin Hao was so scared that he didn't care about anything else. He immediately got up from the hospital bed and grabbed Qin Zheng's hand, saying, "What do you mean, 'no'!"

"When I was little, I didn't have time to finish the homework my father assigned me, and you secretly helped me finish it!"

"When I started school, my grades weren't good, and you were the one who highlighted the important points for me and explained the exercises."

"Later, when I joined Qin's company, when I didn't know anything at first, it was you who guided me in doing projects and taking on clients."

"And me, when you were seven or eight years old, someone tried to bully you, and I was the one who rushed to protect you!"

He gripped Qin Zheng's hand tightly, his voice trembling without him even realizing it: "Second brother, we're less than two years apart, we're brothers who grew up together. Believe me, I really didn't do it!"

Hu Mengling also realized the situation and, for the first time, put aside her prejudice and stepped forward to plead, "Second brother, believe your eldest brother. He has always been the most honest one and would never do anything like murder!"

"Someone must be slandering him!"

"Honest?" Qin Shi'an suddenly laughed. "Aunt, you probably have some deep misunderstanding about your husband."

Hu Mengling paused, then asked, "What do you mean?"

Qin Shi'an gave Qin Hao a meaningful look: "It's nothing. If you're interested, you can ask him yourself."

Qin Hao trembled, and his already pale face turned even whiter.

Hu Mengling initially thought Qin Shi'an was trying to sow discord, but seeing Qin Hao's reaction, her suspicions immediately rose uncontrollably. She stared at him and asked, "Qin Hao, are you hiding something from me?!"

Qin Hao immediately denied it: "Don't you know my situation? What could I possibly hide from you?"

Once suspicion arose in her heart, it was uncontrollable. Hu Mengling simply didn't believe him: "Are you going to tell me or not!"

"I said no, so don't overthink it!"

Seeing that the scene had turned into the couple arguing again, Qin Zheng couldn't help but tap the table to interrupt them: "You can argue about your own business at home. Now we're talking about you plotting to harm my daughter."

Hu Mengling glanced at Gu Yueming and Qin Sheng, who had just entered from outside, her eyes darted around, and she suddenly straightened her back: "What do you mean we murdered your daughter? I'd like to say Qin Sheng murdered us! If anyone should give an explanation, it's you two!"

As if struck by a thought, she muttered curses under her breath and pulled her phone out of her bag, sneering, "Don't think you're the only ones with evidence, I have it too!"

As she spoke, she found a folder and clicked on it. Before she could even feel smug, Hu Mengling was dumbfounded: "Where...the video recording is?"

Qin Sheng strolled in slowly, her delicate face radiating coldness. She glanced at Hu Mengling and said, "Look again carefully?"
