Qiao Huizhen stayed at her parents' house for one night. After sending her son, Xiao Huzi, to school, she returned to the hospital early in the morning.
She saw that the food she had ordered yesterday was untouched, and Ding Haotian was still lying in bed, not yet awake, so she angrily pushed him.
"You've really grown up now. If you don't want to eat, I'll just stop serving you food altogether."
Ding Haotian was still grumpy when he woke up; what happened yesterday had left him feeling uneasy.
"Take it or leave it. What's the difference between getting food and not getting it at all?"
Qiao Huizhen was furious when she saw that her husband was ungrateful.
“Ding Haotian, if I hadn’t taken care of you every day, you wouldn’t have recovered so quickly. If it were Xia Enruo, you would probably have starved to death long ago.”
Qiao Huizhen's mention of Xia Enruo only made Ding Haotian angrier.
"Shut up! How dare you talk about Xia? Your cooking is no match for hers. You're just making up stories for me. I think you're just jealous of her because she's good-looking and has good cooking skills."
Ding Haotian didn't give her any face and retorted.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Huizhen was furious that Xia Enruo was better than her. In her eyes, that unemployed country bumpkin was actually daring to ride roughshod over her; it was an insult.
Qiao Huizhen angrily picked up the lunchbox and threw it out the window. Luckily, no one was downstairs. The lunchbox landed on the lawn below, spilling soup all over the ground.
"Ding Haotian, how dare you use Xia Enruo to insult me? If you like that peasant so much, why don't you go with her?"
Qiao Huizhen shouted and punched him.
Enraged by the beating, Ding Haotian forcefully pushed her to the ground.
Qiao Huizhen cried loudly, attracting the attention of the nurse in charge of her bed, who then pulled her out of the room.
Qiao Huizhen trembled with anger, wiping away her tears with a towel at the nurses' station. She thought that Xia Enruo, that bitch, must have bewitched Ding Haotian while she was away. That woman was so slutty; she probably saw that Gu Shaoxuan had no future and went to seduce her man.
We must teach her a lesson.
Xia Enruo was wiping Gu Shaoxuan's body, her ears burning. She was unaware that Qiao Huizhen was cursing her.
She felt that Gu Shaoxuan's gaze towards her had been strange these past two days, that lecherous look made her want to slap him across the face with a towel.
"Is there something on my face?"
Xia Enruo asked as she wiped.
"More beautiful than flowers. Enruo, you should change your tune."
"Change your address? Change what?"
Xia Enruo had no idea what Gu Shaoxuan and she were talking about.
"When you had that argument with Ma Dandan, didn't you call me your husband?"
Gu Shaoxuan wanted Xia Enruo to call him that.
"Well... that's just a matter of words flowing too fast. Besides, legally you are my husband. Otherwise, what I'm doing now would be pure harassment."
"Actually, I can do that in real life too. I like it when you act like a hooligan."
Gu Shaoxuan said with a blush, "The more I look at Xia Enruo, the more I like her. How can my wife be so beautiful?"
He reached out and pulled Xia Enruo's arm forcefully, drawing her to his chest and kissing her cheek. So fragrant! Xia Enruo's face smelled wonderful.
What are you doing?
Xia Enruo's heart pounded wildly as Gu Shaoxuan kissed her. What was wrong with him lately? Wasn't he so disgusted with her that he wanted a divorce? And now he was acting like this? He was making a fool of her, but why wasn't she angry at all? Instead, she felt a little shy.
She picked up the basin and hurriedly went outside.
Gu Shaoxuan felt a warm glow in his heart as he looked at her shy expression.
Xia Enruo carried a basin to the water room to pour water. As she passed the nurses' station, Qiao Huizhen followed her angrily.
"Xia Enruo, you slut, what did you say to my old Ding? Are you taking advantage of my absence?"
Qiao Huizhen disregarded her reputation at work, entered the water room, pointed at Xia Enruo's nose, and cursed. The doctors and nurses who were fetching water in the water room also stood aside and watched the commotion.
"Sister-in-law Huizhen, you're really on fire today. What did I do to offend you so much that you're cursing me like this?"
"You little vixen, you slut, you've been cheating on me with all sorts of women, and now you've messed with my family. You've made my life miserable, drugged Ding Haotian, and made him beat and curse me. Xia Enruo, you're such a shameless woman."
Qiao Huizhen was so angry that she uttered harsh words, completely disregarding her identity as a doctor, which made the patient frown.
That female doctor really speaks rudely!
"Sister-in-law, I've tolerated your slander for a long time. You say I'm having an affair, which eye of yours saw that? What evidence do you have to defame me?"
Xia Enruo wanted to laugh at Qiao Huizhen's tantrum!
“I saw it with both eyes. You were running off with other men every day behind Gu Shaoxuan’s back, and now you’re coming to see my Lao Ding. You really can’t stand being alone.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Enruo knew that she must have been gossiping behind Gu Shaoxuan's back when she and Wu Shaojun went out to buy groceries, causing Gu Shaoxuan to misunderstand her. That woman was truly wicked.
"Qiao Huizhen, I, Xia Enruo, do everything uprightly. On the contrary, you can't stand to see others doing well. You talk about me having an affair in front of my husband, Lao Gu, and then you try to get me to divorce him behind his back."
"Xia Enruo, you should divorce him quickly. Don't let him drag you down, or you'll be eating nothing but chaff and wild vegetables every day."
Xia Enruo imitated Qiao Huizhen's tone and repeated what she had said to herself, and she did it quite well.
Hearing her tone and considering Qiao Huizhen's usual character, her colleagues realized that she really could utter such heinous nonsense.
"Xia Enruo, you...you're talking nonsense! Watch me expose your conspiracy, and you'll turn the tables on me!"
Seeing her exasperated expression, Xia Enruo paused, then said:
"You say I seduced Brother Ding? What did I see in him? Did I see him because his position is lower than Gu Shaoxuan's? Did I see him because he's been tortured by you until he's pale and thin and then I'm overflowing with love? Or did I see him because he can't even walk properly and last night when he had no water to drink, he shakily went out to fetch hot water by himself?"
Those around them pursed their lips and pointed at Qiao Huizhen.
Qiao Huizhen looked around as people pointed at her, her mind in turmoil.
Xia Enruo added another sentence:
“Since they were hospitalized, I haven’t even been inside your ward. Yesterday, Yuan Qiang helped Brother Ding back home. Should I call him over to be a witness?”
Qiao Huizhen was truly at a loss and didn't know how to respond. It was she who had come to provoke Xia Enruo.
"You two are in cahoots, what's the proof? Xia Enruo, you're just a slut."
Qiao Huizhen snatched a basin of water from the side and splashed it directly on Xia Enruo's head, soaking her completely.
"Xia Enruo, you unemployed country bumpkin, do you even deserve to stand shoulder to shoulder with me and talk? Go back and drink your foot bath water."
Qiao Huizhen's eyes turned red; she went berserk, now wanting to stab anyone she saw.
