The atmosphere in the quiet corridor became tense, and the air was thick with the smell of gunpowder.
The doctors and nurses wanted to step forward to dissuade them, but seeing this situation, they looked at each other and no one dared to take a step forward.
Pei Zhao roared, "If any of you dare to touch Sister Ming, I'll fight you to the death!"
He shielded Mingyao completely behind him, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
Meng Yan grabbed Pei Zhao, furious at his lack of self-control: "You brat, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"Are you going to oppose the First Madam?!"
Pei Zhao shook off Meng Yan's hand: "Mom, the First Madam is trying to harm Grandpa!"
"Why are you still taking her side?!"
Pei Zhao couldn't understand.
Anger flared in Meng Yan's eyes: "You brat, how dare you talk like that?"
"The First Madam never intended to harm anyone!"
Meng Yan grabbed Pei Zhao's arm, turned to Wei Ning and smiled, "Madam, he's just a child, don't take his words to heart."
"I'll give him a good talking to when I get back!"
Before he could finish speaking, Pei Zhao unceremoniously shook off Meng Yan: "In my heart, she is a murderer!"
"Heh, they're trying to make things difficult for Sister Ming while Uncle is unconscious so they can take over the branch company!"
"I'm putting my words right here!"
"Anyone who dares to bully Sister Ming is going against me!"
Pei Zhao's firm tone and resolute attitude made the faces of the Pei family members present grow increasingly grim.
On one side was Wei Ning, and on the other was her own son.
Meng Yan was caught in the middle, feeling completely overwhelmed.
Wei Ning didn't care about anything else and sneered, "Pei Zhao, if you insist on protecting her, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Meng Yan panicked and looked at Wei Ning in disbelief: "Madam, this is my son!"
"You can't lay a hand on me!"
Wei Ning ignored Meng Yan's words and directly ordered his bodyguards to take action.
Meng Yan shoved aside the bodyguards who were closing in on Pei Zhao and glared angrily at them.
"If you dare touch my son, I'll fight you to the death!"
"Madam, don't go too far!"
Wei Ning looked at Meng Yan with disdain and sneered, "Arrest them all!"
Meng Yan was stunned.
She never expected Wei Ning to be so ruthless, actually ordering someone to take action!
She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth: "I've finally seen through you!"
"You've never treated me like family; you've always been using me!"
Wei Ning remained expressionless, not even glancing at Meng Yan.
Wei Ning came prepared this time, bringing three times the number of people as Ming Yao.
Even with her bodyguards fully armed, they couldn't outnumber Wei Ning's three-fold numbers.
The atmosphere grew increasingly tense, and just as the other side was about to make a move, an angry shout rang out.
"What are you doing!"
Li Haonan glared at Wei Ning with a sinister look: "Mrs. Wei, this is a hospital, not a place for you to cause trouble."
"If you continue to act recklessly here, I will have no choice but to call the police!"
Li Haonan's father also came over, followed by Wang Zhouheng and the director of the Central Hospital, as well as other high-ranking doctors.
Mayor Li happened to witness this scene during his visit to the Central Hospital today.
A hint of resentment flickered in Wei Ning's eyes.
She couldn't afford to offend the mayor, and Haichang Technology Company was also one of the participants in the technology exhibition.
"Mayor, please don't misunderstand."
"I just brought a lot of friends to wait for news."
Wei Ning forced a smile.
She clenched her fists, trying hard to maintain the smile on her face.
Why did the mayor have to come at this time of year?
Wei Ning had no choice but to dismiss his men, and Li Haonan walked to Ming Yao's side.
"Miss Ming, how is the old man now?"
"They are still trying to save him."
Mingyao still feels lingering fear when she thinks about it now.
If she hadn't arrived in time, the old man's fate might have been...
At that moment, the doctor came out of the emergency room: "The patient is out of danger."
"But you should remember to get some rest."
“As patients get older, intense emotional fluctuations can have a very serious impact on their health.”
The old man was moved to a regular ward, and Mingyao breathed a sigh of relief.
When evening came, the old man slowly woke up.
Wei Ning and the rest of the Pei family were the first to rush forward.
Wei Ning, in particular, had red eyes with tears welling up in the corners of her eyes, looking utterly pitiful.
"You're finally awake!"
The old man struggled to lift his eyelids, glanced at Wei Ning, and then indifferently looked away.
The old man's indifferent attitude froze Wei Ning's smile on his face.
"Get out of the way!"
The old man said with difficulty.
The Pei family members looked at each other in bewilderment and then walked away.
The old man's gaze passed over the crowd and landed on Mingyao's face not far away.
A faint smile appeared on his stern face.
"Good child, come here quickly."
The old man raised his hand and waved to Mingyao and Pei Zhao.
The two people approached and half-squatted beside the bed.
The old man coughed lightly twice and gripped Mingyao's hand tightly.
His eyes welled up with tears, and he choked out, "I know it was you who saved me."
"Thank you, dear child."
The old man's body was shaking violently due to the intense emotional fluctuations.
Wei Ning began to use this as an excuse to make a fuss.
"What are you doing!"
"Let go of the old man!"
The old man glared at Wei Ning with a sinister look.
Wei Ning choked up and had no choice but to take a half step back.
She clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with a stern light.
The old man leaned close to Mingyao's ear and whispered a few words, which even Pei Zhao couldn't hear clearly.
Mingyao was stunned: "Grandpa, are you sure you want to do this?"
The old man nodded vigorously: "I was the one who treated you badly before."
