Chapter 209 Not Accepted
Ye Wanxi's voice was still weak and feeble, but at this moment, echoing in the huge ward, it gave people a chilling sense of etherealness and determination.
Xiao Baihui and his companion unconsciously recalled the night they first met Ye Wanxi and the bizarre and unfortunate events that had befallen them, and both of them shuddered at the same time.
Especially Xiao Baihui, what happened that night was enough to make this tough man shed a tear of sorrow.
Zou Yiluan unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. He and Xiao Baihui already felt guilty towards Ye Wanxi because of what happened in Beicheng, but for various reasons, they had no choice but to bring He Qiyuan on this trip.
Unexpectedly, after this person arrived, he repeatedly tested their bottom line, and even insisted on removing the bandages from Ye Wanxi's hand to confirm it for some ulterior motive.
They hadn't considered that this dissection might worsen the wound infection, causing Ye Wanxi's injury to become more serious, or at the very least, leave a scar.
Despite being a meritorious official who had made great contributions, he was treated so harshly because of suspicion, fear, and some nascent attempts to exploit him.
Zou Yiluan, having reached her limit, finally decided to stop: "Mr. He and this doctor, if you want to die unexpectedly after returning home today, you might as well try touching Miss Ye's hand."
"What do you mean? Are you threatening me?"
No one likes to hear others curse them, and He Qiyuan was no exception.
"It's not a threat, it's a well-intentioned reminder." Zou Yiluan took a deep breath. There were some things that Xiao Baihui shouldn't say, but he didn't have much of a qualm.
"Revealing heavenly secrets would have killed an ordinary person a thousand or eight hundred times over for that. Although Miss Ye was seriously injured, she did not die. Moreover, because she saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Beicheng, she gained countless merits that an ordinary person could not accumulate in a lifetime. Do you know what this means?"
What does it mean?
"It means that Heaven only wanted to use this incident to give Miss Ye a warning, so that she would behave herself and stop doing things that reveal heavenly secrets and are thankless. It does not mean that it can allow others to fawn over the powerful and bully the weak, and to bully its own daughter at will."
He Qiyuan's face was ashen, but it was clear he was still unwilling to give up.
"It's one thing for God to punish Miss Ye, but it doesn't mean that anyone else can lay a finger on her under His nose. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"You're clearly exaggerating; these supernatural and bizarre things are simply..."
"What is this? Fake?" Zou Yiluan interrupted him loudly. "Don't tell me you're an atheist who doesn't believe in these supernatural things. You saw what happened in Beicheng this time. Facts speak louder than words. It just goes to show that heaven is watching what people do. Some things can't be explained, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. You'd better have some reverence for this."
"I've also heard about the female celebrity you mentioned who was struck by lightning. As far as I know, the reason she was struck by lightning was because she repeatedly targeted Ms. Ye on the show and said some very inappropriate things when Ms. Ye was struck by lightning."
It's quite an interesting story. Ji Yuanting's fans were initially gloating over Ye Wanxi being struck by lightning, and even openly celebrated by giving out red envelopes in the super topic.
Unexpectedly, karma came so quickly. They had just finished distributing the red envelopes when their very target was struck by lightning.
In particular, although the production team was unable to record Gu Shaoling's sarcastic remark to Ji Yuanting later because the camera exploded, they did record Ji Yuanting's strange and implied remark when Ye Wanxi left that she had done something wrong and was therefore struck by lightning.
After the incident, some people who didn't like Ji Yuanting to begin with, eager to stir up trouble, cut out this short video clip and watched it together with the news that Ji Yuanting had been struck by lightning and hospitalized. It was quite a slap in the face.
After the incident blew up, the entire internet was so angry that it wanted to send their fans a "The clown is actually me.jpg" meme, which angered many fans who were originally worried about Ji Yuanting's health to the point that they unfollowed her on the spot.
Ji Yuanting's acting career was effectively over because of this incident.
"Besides this female celebrity, you should know better than us what happened to those who tried to get close to this ward and secretly pulled some dirty tricks. I can say with certainty that none of this is accidental."
"Since Miss Ye was seriously injured and hospitalized, she has never left the hospital, never left her ward, and hasn't even gotten out of bed. Their affairs could not possibly have anything to do with her, so what exactly has caused them to have such bad luck lately?"
As Zou Yiluan watched He Qiyuan's increasingly wavering and even fearful expression, a sense of satisfaction welled up inside him: "Just having a thought, and the consequences are so severe. Mr. He, how long do you think you'll be in trouble for what you did today? Not to mention what serious consequences you would face if you had hurt Miss Ye today? Would you be struck by lightning, or..."
Zou Yiluan paused for a moment, then concluded meaningfully, "That's all I have to say. Take care."
Ye Wanxi was lying in bed when she heard this and almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Who would have thought that this middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes could be a bit wicked?
Nothing is more terrifying than knowing you might be in for some bad luck, but not knowing what kind of bad luck it might be.
Mr. He is probably going to have nightmares for days after he gets back.
He Qiyuan's expression changed several times after hearing Zou Yiluan's words, but in the end he couldn't withstand the threat of "sudden death." His face turned ashen, and he turned and left.
Seeing this, Dr. Wang quickly followed suit.
His departure immediately eased the atmosphere in the ward.
The bloodshot in Feng Tianyu's eyes faded slightly, but he held Ye Wanxi's hand even tighter.
Ye Wanxi pursed her lips and tentatively moved her fingers to interlock them.
She had no doubt that if Zou Yiluan's last words hadn't inadvertently pleased Feng Tianyu, none of the people in the room today would have escaped.
Shi Lang looked disappointed: "You're just leaving like that? You came and went so easily, you have no manners at all."
After He Qiyuan and his companion left, Xiao Baihui and Zou Yiluan, who had come with him, felt a little awkward.
The two stood there for a while, then Xiao Baihui suddenly walked to the bedside, bowed deeply to Ye Wanxi, and solemnly said, "I'm sorry."
This apology was not only for what had just happened, but also for failing to clear Ye Wanxi's name, which forced her to suffer criticism and condemnation.
Ye Wanxi stared at him for a while, then drew a line on Feng Tianyu's palm with her finger. She knew he understood what she meant.
As expected, the next second, Feng Tianyu replied in a cold tone: "I don't accept it."
