Let alone promotion, no one has made things difficult for Ye Zhanying over the years, all because of Chief of Staff Ye's influence.

"Grandma, could you please keep your voice down? We're already at the door. It would be so embarrassing if someone heard us. Please, just for the sake of the leader, give us some face. Please, please."

Ye Zhanying rolled her eyes at him: "Look at you, so useless. I don't even know what to say to you."

She put one hand on the doorknob, then paused, hearing the sounds inside.

"Since you're not satisfied, why are you even here at the hospital? My brother is not worthy of your service. Who knows if you've poisoned the water? You've already ruined him like this, what more do you want?"

Before either of them even went inside, they heard Xie Wanying scream loudly from inside.

She saw Shu Ying bring over something that looked like a straw cup, pour water into it, and immediately snatched it away to pour it out.

"Your family's political background is problematic to begin with. Who knows if the water the capitalists spilled will cause any problems? I'll take care of my brother. Don't let me see you in the hospital!"

Shu Ying was so angry that she laughed. At first, Xie Wanying would pretend, but after Shu Ying saw through her act without any mercy, she stopped pretending altogether.

Shu Ying strode over, snatched the water glass from her hand, drank the water in it clean, and suppressed her anger, lowering her voice to say:

"Are you relieved now? If I really wanted to poison him, I had a thousand, ten thousand ways. Are you a medical student, or am I? If you don't know anything, don't get in my way!"

Xie Wanying reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, instantly bristling with anger.

"What do you mean! You look down on me? Don't think you're so great just because you studied medicine abroad. All that money your family has isn't from honest sources! You've ruined Zhiyan so badly, and now you're putting on this act. I'm not buying it!"

Shu Ying sneered and stepped closer: "I hurt him so badly? Which eye of yours saw that? You only saw how hard your brother was doing, but what makes you think it's easy for me to raise two children?"

"The children are not bullied because they don't have a father. My family is a scholarly family, and every time someone passes by my house, they call me a widow. I am indeed more comfortable materially, but based on that alone, you think I am living a carefree and idyllic life? Is it that your understanding is narrow, or are you blind and insensitive?"

Ye Zhanying, standing outside the door, turned to look at Wang Zhande beside her, puzzled.

"Child? What child?"

Wang Zhande scratched his head: "My sister-in-law got pregnant not long after she married the leader. She gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. The boy looks exactly like the leader."

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Ye Zhanying's face. She had thought that Shu Ying was just a scheming little white lotus who would try to climb the social ladder, but she never expected that even after her parents passed away, she had managed to keep her two children safe and send them to the army.

“I just took Xie Zhiyan’s pulse. Although his pulse is weak and shallow, his heart pulse is strong and powerful. The fever is just a symptom. As long as the fever goes down, the chances of him waking up will be higher. If you really care about him, then step aside. Are you not his sister? You’re just making trouble here!”

Xie Wanying's fragile self-esteem was trampled upon, and she covered her ears, refusing to listen to anything:

"Stop spreading rumors here. You just want to harm Zhiyan. In his current state, he's in danger of choking even when he drinks or eats. I won't allow a murderer like you to get near him!"

Ye Zhanying was extremely annoyed by Xie Wanying's affected voice. She got goosebumps just listening to it from outside and really wanted to slap her.
