Xia Enruo directed Zhao Minghui and Zhao Mingyan to lead the company employees to distribute leaflets on the streets for three consecutive days.
Chen Youliang and Cai Minghua, a married couple, have completely lost face in the city.
The despicable things that Chen Yan and her family did became common knowledge and a topic of conversation among the people of Yongning City.
Due to the extremely negative impact, the mailboxes of the two individuals' workplaces were flooded with complaints and reports from the public.
The company had no choice but to suspend the two individuals from their duties pending investigation.
Things have calmed down a lot these past few days, and no one has dared to cause trouble in the ward anymore. They've finally realized they're not to be trifled with and are completely scared.
Outside, a fierce wind was blowing, and the oppressive heat and suffocating atmosphere that had been hanging over the sky for days vanished with the arrival of a heavy rain.
Raindrops the size of black beans pattered against the glass of the hospital room.
"Mingyan, come out with me for a bit."
Xia Enruo straightened her clothes in front of the mirror and said.
"Boss Xia, is it raining so hard???"
Zhao Mingyan looked out the window; a series of muffled thunderclaps ripped through the leaden-black clouds, flashing with pink light.
Xia Enru smiled faintly.
"I'm not leaving the hospital to see an old friend. To see how Chen Yan is doing these past few days?"
Oh, and bring the new mirror you bought me too.
Zhao Mingyan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Xia, I thought you were going outside."
She walked over to the bedside, tucked the blanket around Zhang Zhicheng, and followed Xia Enruo out with the newly bought glass mirror in her hand.
Due to family arrangements, Chen Yan did not share a hospital room with other patients.
Zhang Xin and the second-floor woman were at the other end of the corridor on the same floor.
At this critical juncture, the group naturally stayed quietly in their rooms, not daring to move around freely.
Now all the medical staff and patients' families in the hospital know about the three men's scandalous deeds, and when they see them in the corridor, they inevitably hurl insults and humiliations at each other.
Xia Enruo walked ahead and pushed open the door to Chen Yan's ward.
At this moment, Chen Yan lay blankly on the hospital bed, looking out the window, with no one else around.
The dim light shone into the ward, making it resemble a prison for an emperor in an ancient costume drama.
What brings you here?
Chen Yan turned her head, glanced at Xia Enruo and the other person, and said in a slightly frivolous tone.
"Of course, I want to see old friends and see how you're doing."
Chen Yan snorted.
"You just want to see if I'm dead or not, don't you?"
"The dead cannot speak."
Chen Yan, aren't you afraid? You've done so many wrong things, aren't you afraid of divine punishment, of being struck by lightning?"
Chen Yan's slightly smirking, disdainful expression disgusted Xia Enruo.
"A guilty conscience? I, Chen Yan, believe I have never done anything guilty."
Including that article that was published about you, Xia Enruo, you are definitely not an innocent person. Your uncle and aunt are right.
You're a blood-sucking bastard. See? Even your own family says this about you, so you can't be any better.
"If it weren't for someone pulling strings behind your back, the outcome would have been very different!"
Xia Enruo sat in the chair, watching Chen Yan's angry and rebuking expression.
A chill ran through me; such a dark and twisted person would never suddenly come to their senses.
He's probably thinking about how to harm people next.
"Chen Yan, you're at the prime of your youth, you could find any kind of man, why do you have to keep fixating on Zhang Xin?"
He has a wife and children, and he's not particularly good-looking. What exactly did you see in him?
"Zhang Xin is talented and rich? What's wrong with that? So what if he has a wife and kids? He still likes to be intimate with me in bed."
If it weren't for that old hag Ge Qiuqin and her four little brats clinging to him, we would have been together long ago.
Even Zhang Xin's mother likes me, can't you believe it? Is Ge Qiuqin destined to always be some lowly, uncouth country bumpkin?
Xia Enruo almost burst out laughing upon hearing this, but she managed to suppress a snort.
Is Chen Yan really that stupid or just pretending? How could she say something like that?
He seems like a smart person, but he's actually a complete idiot.
"Zhang Xin is rich? Chen Yan, you must have misunderstood something."
"What do you know? Zhang Xin has plenty of money. If it weren't for Ge Qiuqin squandering it everywhere, the Zhang family would be living a very comfortable life."
Ge Qiuqin not only squandered money on herself and her children, but she also used brand-new bills to help her own parents.
Zhang Xin said that Ge Qiuqin, that haggard woman, had squandered all the family's money.
Ge Qiuqin didn't divorce him because she was after Zhang Xin's wealthy family.
That damned bastard, fearing that my child would compete with his son for the Zhang family's property after birth, actually caused my child to die before even being born and seeing the world.
Ge Qiuqin must die. I must avenge my unborn child. Her daughter deserved to be trafficked, and that little bastard deserves to never see her family again.
It would be better if she were sold to a brothel, so she could experience the agony of being violated in bed for the rest of her life and die a horrible death!
Hearing her words, Xia Enruo clenched her fists in anger, really wanting to stand up and slap her twice.
But a small act of impatience could ruin a great plan. She calmed herself down and finally sat back down in her chair.
"Pah! Pah! Pah! You're such a wicked woman! Be careful, or you might really be struck by lightning!"
Zhao Mingyan, standing to the side, found the words extremely malicious and retorted indignantly.
"Hahaha. You're so naive, little girl, you actually believe in ghosts and gods."
If lightning could really strike people, those I hate would have been struck several times over by now.
The lightning and thunder outside the window, along with bursts of light, shone on Chen Yan's distorted face.
Her hair was disheveled, and she seemed to have long lost the delicate beauty she had when she worked at the newspaper.
The words "slut" were prominently displayed on her cheek, already scabbed over with blood, flashing like dancing musical notes, glaringly obvious.
Compared to Ge Qiuqin, she has long lost her former winning appearance.
Or rather, at this moment, she is not even half as good as Ge Qiuqin.
Xia Enruo felt utterly disgusted by her smug and unrepentant appearance.
"Although the new society does not talk about monsters and feudal superstitions, those who do bad things will eventually suffer the consequences and will be punished."
Xia Enruo's words were stiff and awkward.
"Hmph... Mr. Xia, did you come here today just to see me make a fool of myself?"
"If you want to see me, Chen Yan, fail miserably, that person isn't even born yet! And it's certainly not your turn."
Chen Yan leaned back against the headboard, her eyes fixed intently on Xia Enruo as she spoke.
"Whether you want to laugh or not, Chen Yan, you're already a laughing stock in the whole city. Didn't you even read the flyers?"
Your family has suffered a huge disgrace! I heard your parents are so embarrassed they haven't gone to work for days and haven't dared to leave the house!
What flyer?
Chen Yan asked thoughtfully.
When Chen Yan was taken to the hospital, she had lost too much blood and was unconscious for two days, so she was unaware of what was happening outside.
"Mingyan, show it to her."
