Chapter 152 152 It’s in the Newspaper
Sensing Wang Hong's panic on the other end of the line, Jiang Lili immediately comforted her, "Calm down. What you need to do now is take the child to the hospital. As for who is right and who is wrong, that's not something we need to argue about right now. Take the child and their parents to a nearby hospital. I'll be right there."
"Okay, Lili, I'll take them to the hospital first." Hearing her words, Wang Hong calmed down.
Until the person on the other end of the phone hung up, Jiang Lili could still hear the noise and argument coming from the other end. She quickly got up and prepared to go to the hospital.
On Lu Hongzhe's side, the old man had just set up the chessboard. He caught a glimpse of Jiang Lili, who was about to leave in a hurry. He couldn't help but step forward and said, "What happened? I just heard you say you were going to the hospital. I'll drive you there."
"Some kids got hurt in a fight in the store." This was the first such case since the opening of Baby Paradise. All the hard objects in the store had been cleared away, and soft padding had been used on the corners. In theory, minor bumps and bruises wouldn't cause bleeding. Now, in addition to comforting the injured child's parents, Jiang Lili went to the hospital to understand the whole story.
"Let Hongzhe go with you, otherwise people will see you two little girls and blackmail you severely." Jiang Jianyi said quickly.
Jiang Lili hadn't thought of this, but she was prepared for the worst, so she nodded and said, "Grandpa, that makes sense. Maybe we should call two more people?"
"Not yet. It would be best if it can be resolved peacefully. I remember there are surveillance cameras installed in your store, right?" Lu Hongzhe shook his head.
"Yes, there is surveillance." This is also one of the reasons why Jiang Lili was not so panicked.
"Even if there is surveillance, someone has to follow." Jiang Jianyi has seen too many people who lie with their eyes open for profit.
"Okay, then Brother Hongzhe and I will go over first. Grandpa, you and Tongtong stay at home." Jiang Lili said as she hurried outside.
"Do you know which hospital it is?" Lu Hongzhe asked while fastening his seat belt.
"The Second Hospital." Jiang Lili said.
Arriving at the hospital, Jiang Lili went straight to the emergency room, which was packed with people. Lu Hongzhe, who was following behind her, spotted Wang Hong on the other end of the room and said, "Lili, over there."
"How is it now?" Jiang Lili asked.
"That kid is getting stitches in there. I heard he needs several stitches. Sister Lili, their fight should have nothing to do with us, right?" Wang Hong was a little worried that they would blackmail the store.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Where are the parents of the other family?" Jiang Lili asked.
"They are inside too. When I first came to the hospital, I forgot about this. It was Lele's parents who brought them here together." Lele was the injured child.
"Do you know what happened?" Jiang Lili asked.
"I'm not too sure. I heard crying and went over to see blood on Lele's forehead. Congcong was also crying beside him." Wang Hong shook her head.
"Where did they fight? Do you know what Congcong used to injure Lele?" This is what Jiang Lili is most curious about. There shouldn't be such a "weapon" in the store.
"I was so panicked at that time that I was only concerned with comforting Lele and didn't care about anything else." It was the first time Wang Hong encountered such a thing and she had no experience in dealing with it.
"It's okay, let's wait until they come out. Don't worry too much. There are surveillance cameras in the store, and they can't blackmail you if they want." Jiang Lili comforted him. Of course, this was also the reason why she was calm. If the negotiation could not be completed, she would just call the police and make compensation according to the division of responsibilities shown in the surveillance.
After waiting for a long time, Lele's mother finally came out with Lele in her arms. The little guy leaned against his mother's arms, tears still hanging on his eyelashes. Jiang Lili stepped forward and asked about his injuries: "How is Lele? What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor said there will be a scar, so you must be responsible." Lele's mother didn't say anything. The person next to her should be Lele's grandmother. The grandmother looked at them with an unhappy expression.
"Yes, your amusement park must be responsible. The two children were just playing together. Now Lele is like this, it is your amusement park's responsibility." Congcong's mother directly shirked the responsibility.
"Don't worry, we will never shirk our responsibility. There are surveillance cameras in the store. Let's go back and see what happened?" As for calling the police, we can do so only if we can't reach an agreement through negotiation.
Hearing about the surveillance footage, Congcong's mother frowned and then yelled, "No matter what, this happened in your amusement park, you should be responsible, right?"
"Of course, we will definitely take responsibility for what we should be responsible for." Similarly, she would naturally not get involved in responsibilities that were not hers.
At this time, Lele, tired of crying, fell asleep in his mother's arms. Seeing Jiang Lili's good attitude, they quickly nodded and said, "Then let's go back to the store and check the surveillance. We are not unreasonable people. Whoever is responsible should bear the responsibility."
"Of course." Jiang Lili smiled.
One car definitely couldn't accommodate so many people, so Jiang Lili asked Lele's mother and Congcong's mother to take their children to Lu Hongzhe's car, and the rest of them took a taxi to Baby Paradise.
Wang Hong kept her head down along the way, her face full of self-blame. Jiang Lili patted her shoulder to comfort her. The hospital was not far from Baby Paradise, only a ten-minute drive. When they arrived, everything was normal inside. Except for the clerk, the people inside seemed to be unaffected. At this time, the gauze on Lele's forehead attracted a lot of people.
"Let's watch the surveillance first." Jiang Lili said directly.
The parents in the waiting area were a little surprised when they heard this. They didn't seem to realize that the store actually had surveillance cameras. The surveillance quickly showed that the wound on Lele's head was caused by Congcong hitting him with something. Jiang Lili paused the video and probably realized that Congcong had hit Lele with a car, not something from their store. She looked at Congcong and his mother and said, "Mom, Congcong, this is the toy you brought in yourself, right? To avoid such accidents, the store has already announced that no toys are allowed to be brought in."
"Don't talk nonsense, we didn't bring anything in." Congcong's mother shook her head and denied it. Jiang Lili was too lazy to argue with her and continued to check the surveillance. Sure enough, after Congcong had played in the play area for about twenty minutes, he took out a car from his pocket.
"Lili, I found this at the hospital when Sister Wang and the others went there." At this time, another clerk in the store took out the "murder weapon". The car should be made of alloy, and there was blood on the handlebar near the door. She guessed that Lele was scratched at this place.
"Le Le was injured because Cong Cong did not follow the store rules and brought in other toys, so our store is not responsible for this matter. But out of humanitarianism, we will not ask for back the medical expenses we paid in advance for the hospital. At the same time, we will give Le Le a one-week membership. Le Le's mother, what do you think?" Jiang Lili said and looked at Le Le's mother.
"We have no objection." Lele's mother nodded quickly. After watching the surveillance video, she naturally knew who to hold responsible.
"I don't agree. How can you be fine for what happened in your store? You are responsible for 70% and I am responsible for 30%." Congcong's mother looked unhappy. She originally wanted to step forward and grab Jiang Lili, but gave up after seeing the tall Lu Hongzhe behind her.
"Judging from the surveillance footage, Congcong is fully responsible. Our store also reminds customers not to bring toys from outside. If you feel it is inappropriate, we can choose to call the police or file a lawsuit." Although Jiang Lili's tone was gentle, her attitude was firm and she refused to give in.
"I agree with the boss. It was your son who started it first." Lele's mother also felt that this matter had nothing to do with the store. After all, before this, Lele had a lot of fun every time he came here.
"If the two of them can't reach an agreement, we'll probably have to call the police for mediation." Lu Hongzhe said in a low voice.
"Then call the police. We have already paid for today's medical expenses." Lele's claim was for other expenses. Even though the child was still young, there would definitely be scars where the stitches were made. The only thing to be thankful for was that the spot was close to the hairline, so the hair could cover it up in the future.
"Congcong's mother, we all live nearby, and now we have watched the surveillance footage, so we should have a good talk about the follow-up issues, right?" Lele's mother said directly.
"It's impossible for me to bear all the responsibility anyway, so let's just call the police." Congcong's mother didn't want to bear it alone, so she asked Lele's mother to call the police.
So they moved their position to the Public Security Bureau. The Public Security Bureau also focused on mediation and finally suggested that Lele's mother sue directly. At this time, Lele woke up. Perhaps because the wound on his forehead was too painful, Lele kept crying. Seeing this, the originally gentle Lele's mother directly took their advice and chose to sue Congcong's mother.
At this time, everyone subconsciously felt that going to court was a bad thing. Seeing Lele's mother's attitude, Congcong's mother hurried forward to remedy the situation and wanted to mediate privately.
"Let's go, let's go back first. You handled today's matter very well." Lu Hongzhe's tone was full of praise.
"I wonder if they will come to the store to cause trouble again." Jiang Lili reviewed her attitude in handling the matter just now in her mind. She felt that she could do better.
"It shouldn't happen. The Lele family seems to be sensible, but not weak. The other one is just a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong." Lu Hongzhe concluded.
Jiang Lili thought about it and felt that what he said made sense: "Well, let's see how they deal with it later."
After dealing with this little incident, the two came out of the Public Security Bureau and it was already completely dark. Jiang Lili took out her cell phone and found that she had several missed calls, all from her family. She quickly called back and said that the matter had been handled and she was on her way home.
"Everything that happened today is thanks to you." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lili expressed her gratitude to the people around her.
"I didn't do anything. You solved it all by yourself. You did a great job." Lu Hongzhe's eyes were full of admiration.
"Then shall we go back first? My mom said they are waiting for us to go back for dinner together." Jiang Lili realized that this sentence was very ambiguous after she said it. She thought that if she explained it further, it would seem more deliberate, so her eyes darted around.
The meal was spent in the care of family members. Lu Hongzhe guessed that they should have a lot to talk about, so he said goodbye directly after the meal.
"The family of the injured child is a reasonable one. When I suggested that they don't have to return the medical expenses they paid today and give them a one-week membership in Baby Paradise, they accepted it. The family that beat the child was not happy at first, but when they heard that the other party was going to sue, they quickly agreed to settle it privately. In the future, we will remind them not to bring their own toys." Jiang Lili just shook her head when she thought of the bloody car. It was too dangerous.
"That's good. Fortunately, the injured family are reasonable people. Some people will get involved even if they are unreasonable. It's also thanks to Hongzhe that he went with you." Jiang Jianyi said with emotion.
"Indeed, it's my luck to meet Lele's family." Jiang Lili also nodded.
I originally thought that this matter was over, but unexpectedly, two days later, Jiang Lili saw it in the newspaper.
