Seeing that her boss's face was about to turn dark again, Lan Xuegui immediately pulled her aside and whispered, "Aunt, if you still want to make trouble, I don't mind telling Aunt Lin that Lan Chunrou was detained."

"You dare?" Aunt Lan shook off Lan Xuegui's hand and glared at her.

Lan Xuegui's face was indifferent, "Do you think I dare?"

Aunt Lin is a real gossip. Many people's affairs in the village can spread far away after she says so, and she can turn white into black.

If she knew that Rouer was in the detention center, Rouer's reputation would definitely be ruined.

Finally, for the sake of Lan Chunrou's reputation, Aunt Lan glared at Lan Xuegui and left angrily.

Lan Xuegui looked at her leaving back, and his thoughts suddenly drifted away.

She recalled that when her father had just passed away, no one in the village said that her father was a murderer.

Until one day, she learned from others that it was Aunt Lin who spread the news that her father was a murderer. As a result, the adults and children in the neighborhood were very afraid of her and did not dare to play with her at all.

Once a child came to her, within seconds, the parents of those children would come over and pull them away, and then tell them that she was the child of a murderer.

But she knew that her father was not a murderer!

It was raining heavily that day and Dad was driving the truck, so he must have driven very carefully.

But she never knew why her father suddenly changed the direction of the car, drove in another direction, and then hit and killed a pedestrian who was waiting for the traffic light.

These were the images she saw when she followed her mother to the police station. Although she was very confused, the police had not found out anything, so she could only give up.

Lan Xuegui slowly pulled herself back to her senses, walked up to the hotel owner, and apologized sincerely, "I'm sorry, if my aunt offended you just now, please forgive me."

The hotel owner was a middle-aged man in his fifties. Although he looked fat, he did not look greasy. After hearing Lan Xuegui's words, the anger in his heart eased a little.

His store was suddenly harassed and many of his employees were injured. He was feeling very depressed.

Then he heard Aunt Lan talking about the compensation in front of him, and it was impossible for him to say that he was not annoyed.

He looked down at Lan Xuegui, who was younger than his daughter, apologizing to him sincerely, and his heart softened a little. "It's okay."

Lan Xuegui breathed a sigh of relief when she heard him say that everything was fine.

He said "Thank you" again.

Then she stood aside and saw Aunt Zhang who called her. She got along well with her mother, so she knew her.

Lan Xuegui called out, "Aunt Zhang."

"How is my mother now?"

Aunt Zhang sighed and soothed, "Your mother is still in the operating room, don't worry."

Lan Xuegui's heart was filled with anxiety and tension at this moment.

She looked at the still-lit operating room, her face full of worry.

Suddenly, Aunt Zhang said "Huh" and asked Lan Xuegui, "Xuegui, do you know that person?"

Lan Xuegui then looked in the direction she pointed, and saw Qin Qiushi standing not far away, looking at her.

She frowned. Why did he come here?

She said something to Aunt Zhang, and then walked towards Qin Qiushi.

"What brings you here?"

Qin Qiushi glanced at her sideways, "Can't I come over and take a look when I'm free?"

Lan Xuegui choked and glanced at him, "It's up to you."

The hotel owner also noticed Qin Qiushi at this time. He felt that this man looked familiar and looked at him curiously for a few more times. He always felt that he seemed to have seen him somewhere before.

But for a moment he couldn't remember.

After a while, the door of the operating room opened and the doctor came out.

Lan Xuegui immediately ran forward.

"Doctor, how is my mother?"

The doctor took off his mask and said, "The patient's arm was fractured and has been fixed with a plaster. He needs to rest in the coming time and come for follow-up visits regularly."

"Okay, thank you, Doc."

At the same time, Mother Lan was pushed out from inside.

"Mom!" Lan Xuegui immediately ran forward, put his hand on the edge of the bed, and looked at his weak mother with red eyes.

When Mother Lan saw her daughter coming over, she smiled and comforted her, "Mom is fine."

"Family members of the patient, I will send the patient to the ward first." The nurse interrupted the conversation between the mother and daughter.

Lan Xuegui did not dare to neglect it at all, "Okay."

The group moved to the ward, but fortunately the doctor said that after waiting for Mother Lan to observe the patient for a while, if there was no problem, the discharge procedure could be arranged.

Lan Xuegui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yingxiu, you should rest at home during this time. I will pay for the hospital expenses this time, and I will ask the finance department to compensate you later."

The hotel owner said to Mother Lan.

Mother Lan nodded, "Okay, Boss."

She looked down at her left hand which was fixed with plaster, her eyes dimmed a little. She didn't know whether her boss would want her to go back to work after her injury healed.

The hotel owner said a few more words of comfort and left to check on the other injured employees.

This incident was quite serious and the hotel will probably need some time to be repaired.

Aunt Zhang saw Lan Xue coming back, so she said to Lan's mother, "Yingxiu, I have something else to do at home, so I'll go back first."

Mother Lan nodded. "Well, you can go back. Thank you."

Lan Xuegui also immediately said, "Thank you, Aunt Zhang."

Aunt Zhang waved her hand and left.

Qin Qiushi has been acting as a background board beside.

"Mom, are you hungry? I'll go buy you some food."

Mother Lan waved her hands quickly, "I'm not hungry, no need to buy anything."

Lan Xuegui knew at a glance that her mother said she was not hungry because she wanted to help her save money.

So she toughened her attitude a little, "Mom, I'll let your son-in-law buy it, you can't refuse."

Having said that, she looked at Qin Qiushi standing aside and signaled him with her eyes to take over the conversation. But how had Qin Qiushi ever bought meals for others?

His face suddenly turned stern, but he couldn't say he wouldn't buy it in front of Lan's mother, so he could only say to Lan Xuegui: "You come with me."

Lan Xuegui was about to retort when she heard her mother say, "Okay, you two go together."

Mother Lan, who originally intended to save money, changed her mind immediately when she heard that the couple could go shopping together to enhance their relationship.

Seeing her mother's expectant look, Lan Xuegui swallowed her words of refusal.

In the end, he had no choice but to go out with Qin Qiushi, who had not said anything the whole time.

Mother Lan looked at the two people's backs as they left with satisfaction and a smile appeared on her face.

Lan Xuegui was still angry about Xia Pingle's matter, so the two of them didn't say anything along the way. But when they reached the first floor, they met an unexpected person.
