Chapter 289 Madam Shen certainly has a knack for raising her daughter.
However, Ji Ying didn't give Shen Ruofu a chance to react. She grabbed her collar and dragged her into the empty ward next door in full view of everyone.
The door slammed shut.
Madam Shen was about to step forward when Liang Yizhi stepped in front of her.
“Yizhi…” Madam Shen frowned deeply.
Liang Yizhi remained calm. "Let them talk alone."
Seeing that he was intentionally showing favoritism towards Ji Ying, Madam Shen clenched her fingers anxiously...
Inside the ward, Shen Ruofu was completely overwhelmed by Ji Ying's sudden assertiveness and lost all confidence.
She forced herself to remain calm, "I just saved your friend, you owe me a favor..."
Snap!
Before she could finish speaking, another slap landed on her face.
"If a weasel pays a New Year's visit to a chicken, should I thank you?" Ji Ying said coldly.
Shen Ruofu panicked.
Did Ji Ying discover something?
Even Xiao Chang didn't notice, so how could she know?
Thinking of this, she regained some confidence and said, feeling wronged, "Xiao Chang was there, and he didn't say anything..."
Ji Ying slapped her again, "I'm not reasoning with you!"
She didn't play by the rules, and Shen Ruofu was terrified by the repeated slaps. She said in a trembling voice, "My mother is outside, and Yizhi is here too. How dare you hit me like this?"
Ji Ying gave a fierce laugh, "I dare to drag you in here in front of them, I don't care what others think!"
Shen Ruofu was so intimidated by her aura that she was speechless.
Ji Ying looked down at her and said, "Listen carefully, from now on, if Xiao Xia's condition fluctuates even slightly, no matter the reason, I will hold you responsible!"
Shen Ruofu seemed to have no other choice, and could only tremble as she said, "You...you can't wrong an innocent person."
"Are you a good person?"
Ji Ying's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.
“You used Shen Aizhu as a pawn, and I used her as a pawn too. Now that pawn is in prison. Don’t you think this is a warning to you?”
Shen Ruofu's face immediately turned pale.
Looking into Ji Ying's icy gaze, she felt fear for the first time.
She lowered her head, her voice weak, "Shen Aizhu got to this point because of her bad character; she brought it upon herself. I am not like her."
Ji Ying gave a cold, emotionless smile.
"You're just a little smarter than her, you know you need a brush to clean the toilet."
After saying that, she opened the door and went out.
Madam Shen anxiously looked into the ward, where she saw Shen Ruofu, her face flushed, trembling as she stood up from the ground.
She called out "Ruofu" with heartache, then turned to Ji Ying, her tone reproachful.
How could you beat her like this!
Ji Ying paused, turned to look at her, her eyes filled with a cold indifference.
"You hit your precious adopted daughter, and you feel bad about it?"
Madam Shen was stunned by her words.
Ji Ying raised an eyebrow and continued, "When Shen Aizhu was harming me, why didn't you say a word of justice? It seems that Madam Shen really knows how to raise her daughters. All of these adopted daughters have been raised so well by you."
Su Zhi couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to defend Madam Shen, saying, "How dare you! How can a junior speak ill of an elder like that?"
Ji Ying glanced at her lightly and gave a mocking smile.
"Now that I think about it, your Shen family's precious daughter who didn't grow up by Madam Shen's side is really lucky. Otherwise, she would have learned to be so corrupt and like her parents. That would have been truly shameful."
"You've gone too far!"
Su Zhi couldn't stand it at all.
But as soon as she raised her hand, Liang Yizhi stepped forward and pulled Ji Ying into his arms.
"Madam Shen, I must return to my ward. Excuse me."
After saying that, he took Ji Ying and left.
This time, Ji Ying did not object; instead, she helped him up.
Seeing the thin layer of sweat on his forehead, I knew he had been forcing himself to keep going.
"Does it hurt?" she asked as she helped him back to his ward.
Liang Yizhi smiled, "If my wife feels sorry for me, then I won't feel sorry for her."
"You're just being cheeky," Ji Ying said, suppressing a laugh.
Watching the two figures leave, Shen Ruofu wiped away her tears and took her mother's arm.
"Mom, I didn't..."
Madam Shen wiped away her tears and didn't say anything more about pursuing the matter. She just said with heartache, "Go and let the doctor take a look at you."
Shen Ruofu was secretly surprised that not only did no one intend to seek justice for her, but even her mother was not retorted after being scolded like this.
Who exactly is Ji Ying?
Shen Ruofu's eyes darkened almost imperceptibly, and she nodded obediently.
The mother and daughter headed towards the doctor's office.
I passed by Xiao Chang.
Xiao Chang gave Shen Ruofu a fierce look, "I'll remember you."
Although he didn't notice Shen Ruofu's tampering during the entire process of rescuing Xiao Xia, Xiao Chang still trusted Ji Ying.
Ji Ying was convinced that Shen Ruofu had a problem, so she couldn't escape responsibility.
Startled, Shen Ruofu hurriedly grabbed Madam Shen's arm and quickened her pace to leave under his hostile gaze.
Madam Shen noticed her unusual behavior and patted her hand, saying, "It's alright, Mom is here."
...
Back in the ward, Liang Yizhi was forced to change into a hospital gown and lie on the bed.
The doctor treated his wound again and sighed, "If he hadn't left the hospital without permission, it would have scabbed over by now."
Upon hearing this, Ji Ying immediately said to Jiang Ran, "Go and get the strongest iron chain, the kind that can firmly tie him to the hospital bed."
Liang Yizhi turned his head in surprise and looked at his wife who was looking very serious. He didn't have the courage to argue, so he could only soften his tone and say, "Yingying, I promise that I will never leave this ward without the doctor's and your permission. Don't lock me in."
Ji Ying looked at him lightly, her eyes repeatedly saying, "Your bail is worthless."
With a fawning smile, Liang Yizhi said, "Really, as long as you stay here and watch over me, I won't go anywhere."
Ji Ying stopped looking at him and gave Jiang Ran a wink, indicating that they should give up.
Liang Yizhi instantly switched modes, turning his attention to the doctor who had just spoken frankly.
"Were you a husky in your past life? You're always breaking up couples' harmony and ruining the peace in the hospital ward?"
"Liang Yizhi!"
Ji Ying scolded him.
The man shut his mouth.
The doctor gave an awkward laugh and made an excuse to leave.
Ji Ying watched as this man, who was "bullying the weak and fearing the strong," quickly regained his footing, and a barely perceptible smile flashed in her eyes.
I never expected Liang Yizhi to have such a childish side.
"Jiang Ran, you can leave," Liang Yizhi instructed.
Jiang Ran immediately closed the door for them.
“Yingying,” Liang Yizhi said, lying on the hospital bed, raising his eyebrows and speaking with a hint of coaxing in his voice.
Come here and let me kiss you.
"Come on."
This side of Liang Yizhi did make her feel a little uncomfortable.
"My back hurts. A kiss from you will be more effective than anesthesia."
Ji Ying finally couldn't stand his behavior and reluctantly walked to the bedside.
Upon seeing this, Liang Yizhi immediately tried to step aside.
"Don't move."
Ji Ying was afraid that he would aggravate his wound, so she quickly bent down and pressed him down.
In that instant, the man looked up, and his warm lips pressed against mine without warning...
Liang Yizhi was immersed in the pleasure of his victory when the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
