Chapter 8 Don't Be Unreasonable
The security guards at the top private hospital were no pushovers. Upon noticing the commotion coming from Xia Lili's side, two tall and sturdy security guards immediately rushed over with explosion-proof steel forks and electric batons.
Xia Lili was currently tugging at the woman's arm, "Is this child yours?"
The woman's sunglasses hid the surprise in her eyes. She glanced at the two security guards approaching and feigned anger, "You actually suspect I'm a human trafficker?"
"My son is a senior executive at a listed company, worth over 100 million yuan. Do I really need to be a human trafficker?"
The woman looked Xia Lili up and down and sneered, "But you, wearing a digital watch worth a dozen dollars and worn canvas shoes, are actually able to stay in Huajin Hospital. Are you a scammer who is trying to scam rich people?"
"You're talking nonsense!"
When Xia Lili heard the woman making up stories about her, she increased the strength of the fingers that pulled the woman's arm. She was very strong, which she had gained from working all kinds of hard and tiring part-time jobs during the summer vacation after graduating from high school.
The woman felt pain and was about to hit Xia Lili with the brand-name bag in her hand when a strong male voice interrupted.
"You slandered the girl with empty words. She was injured and stayed in the hospital to save me."
Jiang Yun appeared at the entrance of the hospital lobby. The boy was wearing a white training T-shirt and jeans, looking clean and refreshed. He was holding the food he bought for Xia Lili in his hand.
There was anger in his eyes, his chin slightly raised. Although he was young, his aura was sharp and powerful. When his narrow, almond-shaped eyes were narrowed, he inexplicably gave people the impression that he was not to be messed with.
"What happened to the hospital bill I paid for her?"
Jiang Yun walked quickly to Xia Lili's side, like a tall statue, giving her a sense of security.
When the woman saw Xia Lili's friend coming, a thin layer of sweat appeared on the palms of her hands holding the child.
She kept on nagging, "Humph. And your girlfriend even accused me of being a human trafficker!"
"Security, you two need to take care of this crazy girl!"
"She's crazy, she's holding me and won't let me leave!"
The two security guards' eyes wandered between Xia Lili and the woman holding the child.
The woman was dressed in jewels and designer clothes, which was consistent with the attire of the wealthy ladies they often saw in the hospital. Xia Lili wore a pair of canvas shoes that were brushed white under her hospital gown and held a thousand-yuan mobile phone in her hand.
Both security guards subconsciously thought there was something fishy about Xia Lili, but out of caution, they still asked the woman, "Madam, which pediatrician did you make an appointment with? And what time did you make the appointment?"
"What?! You really believe her!"
The woman adjusted her sunglasses and said arrogantly, "Dr. Liu Ying from the Pediatrics Department, the appointment is for 10:00 this morning."
She showed her phone, and the appointment record was on the screen: "This is my appointment record."
The woman even swiped the screen to prove that her photo was not photoshopped.
She said in a very pompous manner: "If you don't believe me, I'll call Dr. Liu and ask her to come down and tell me in person."
The woman made a phone call, and Dr. Liu Ying from the pediatric department came down and said to the security guard, "This is Ms. Wang. I saw her this morning. The hospital surveillance cameras recorded her, and there were witnesses."
Dr. Liu Ying, a woman in her thirties with neat short hair, said sternly, "I know your security work isn't easy, but how could you be so careless as to believe what others say and cause this kind of trouble to our VIP customers?"
At this time, another security guard came over. He had just contacted his colleague who was watching the surveillance video and said, "This woman was holding her child when she entered the hospital. No one has reported their child missing to the front desk yet."
Xia Lili was stunned when she heard this. Could it be that this time she was hallucinating? She recalled the fragment of the future she had seen, in which the woman had switched babies. So the child she had brought into the hospital was not the same one she was holding!
The security guard and Dr. Liu were already apologizing to the woman: "Ms. Wang, I'm so sorry!"
Seeing that they were about to let Ms. Wang go, Xia Lili became furious and grabbed the woman again, shouting at the security guard, "She didn't just steal the child, she switched the child!"
Newborns are wrinkled when they are one month old, and their facial features have not yet fully developed. It is not until they are four or five months old that their facial features will have clear features.
The woman probably wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters!
After Xia Lili shouted this, the woman's expression froze, but soon turned arrogant: "What are you still messing around with? It's really unlucky for me to run into you today!"
"The surveillance and the doctor both proved that I was just taking my granddaughter to see a doctor. What else do you want?"
The woman was a little overwhelmed: "Take your dirty hands away! Don't disturb my granddaughter's sleep!"
"Security, come quickly! This woman is going crazy. I'm in a hurry to take my granddaughter back and give her medicine."
"My son is a senior executive at Lin's Pharmaceuticals. If anything happens to my granddaughter, can you afford to offend her?"
Lin’s Pharmaceuticals is a partner and supplier of Huajin Hospital.
The security guard remembered that their hospital's big boss, Mr. Tang, had been coming to the hospital from time to time to accompany his wife recently. If Mr. Tang saw this chaotic scene, they would lose their jobs!
Two security guards surrounded Xia Lili and said sternly, "Miss, if you continue to act unreasonably like this, we will hold you legally responsible and make you compensate for the damage to our hospital's image!"
"I……"
Xia Lili was so anxious that she almost cried, but she had no choice but to let the woman go.
She has no evidence now, and in the eyes of others, she is the one with the problem.
There were already a lot of people gathered in the lobby on the first floor of the hospital, all there to watch the fun. There were even several patients who were receiving intravenous drips, holding their medicine bottles and watching the fun.
Jiang Yun didn't know why Xia Lili was arguing with this woman, but Little Frog must have her reasons for doing so.
She frowned, trying to find some clues from the woman. He noticed that the baby in the woman's arms had not cried at all despite the big commotion just now, and had been looking sleepy.
"You're lucky today. I'm in a hurry and don't have time to bother you!"
Ms. Wang snorted coldly, turned around and walked towards the hospital gate while holding her child and wearing high heels.
Looking at Ms. Wang's departing back, Xia Lili felt flustered for some reason. She was anxious and aggrieved, tears and broken beads fell, and her fingers unconsciously grabbed the corner of Jiang Yun's clothes.
His hallucinations had been confirmed twice before, so it was unlikely that anything would go wrong this time.
But without evidence, am I just going to watch this woman take the child away?
The corner of Jiang Yun's clothes was grabbed. When he lowered his head, the girl's eyes were as red as a rabbit's, full of grievance and anxiety, looking extremely pitiful.
Jiang Yun's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly squatted down beside Xia Lili, speaking in a gentle and patient tone, "Little frog, what happened?"
He wiped away the tears from Xia Lili's eyes with his fingertips: "Can you tell me?"
