Chapter 37 What's wrong with me hitting my sister?
Ye Zhen was somewhat surprised to see the police officers suddenly appear.
Could it be that Zhou Chi'an called the police?
Ye Chengdong stepped forward and stood in front of Ye Zhen, looking at the police: "Is this a mistake? There's no case here, we're all family."
Ye Zhen felt Ye Chengdong glance at her, his eyes clearly carrying a hint of warning.
That's right, Ye Zhen knew that Ye Chengdong always valued the Ye family's reputation the most and especially didn't want to cause any trouble.
Ye Zhen covered her still throbbing face: "Someone did beat me up."
"Ye Zhen, think it over before you answer."
Ye Chengdong didn't want the matter to escalate to the police station.
Ye Zhenzhu immediately followed up, saying, "Sister, both Fourth Brother and you were wrong in this matter, why make such a big fuss? I never expected you to secretly call the police."
Liu Qing immediately retorted: "What do you mean by secretly calling the police? You guys broke the law by assaulting people, so why can't we call the police to arrest you?"
Ye Chengbei replied matter-of-factly, "But she is my sister."
Zhou Chi'an sneered and looked at the policeman, saying, "Is it illegal to hit your sister?"
The police officer replied very seriously, "No matter who it is, it's wrong to hit someone. Especially since she's so young, and her face is almost swollen."
Ye Chengbei immediately retorted, "Isn't that because she wanted to offend me?"
"No matter what, she didn't hit you, did she?"
Ye Chengbei fell silent.
The police officer looked at Ye Zhen: "Young lady, although this is your family matter, how do you intend to resolve it?"
Liu Qing quickly said, "Arrest him and put him on record."
"no!"
Ye Chengdong was the first to object, and he quickly looked at Ye Zhen: "Isn't that unnecessary?"
Ye Zhen looked up and sneered, "You're saying it wasn't necessary for me to be beaten like this?"
"So what do you want?"
Ye Chengdong thought Ye Zhen was very immature! She made a fuss over such a small matter and called the police, causing trouble for the family.
Ye Zhen suddenly looked up at Ye Chengdong, raised her hand and slapped him hard, so hard that his gold-rimmed glasses flew off.
The scene was very quiet for a time.
Ye Zhen rubbed her wrist: "That evens things out."
Ye Chengdong turned his head to look at her, his eyes filled with darkness.
Ye Zhen could tell that Ye Chengdong was angry. After all, he was a rich second-generation CEO, and it was impossible for him to be slapped in the face.
Ye Zhen's eyes were filled with sarcasm: "Didn't you want to settle this peacefully? Then you should at least pay a price."
Ye Chengdong clenched his fists, feeling extremely ashamed.
Ye Zhenzhu quickly went over to help Ye Chengdong up: "Sister, now that you've vented your anger, you won't hold Fourth Brother responsible, right?"
Ye Zhen nodded: "Yes, I won't pursue it."
The police heard what Ye Zhen said and left without doing anything.
Ye Chengdong bent down to pick up his glasses, his gaze towards Ye Zhen was complicated: "I want to see how far you can go on your own."
Ye Chengdong left as soon as he finished speaking, without pausing at all, though his steps were somewhat exasperated.
Ye Zhen knew this person cared about saving face, so she did it on purpose.
He Baizhou frowned: "Ye Zhen, how could you hit your older brother? Luckily, he didn't hold it against you."
Zhou Chi'an clicked his tongue: "I heard that you rich people like to arrange marriages, so you find someone like this?"
The tone was utterly sarcastic.
"What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"
He Baizhou's anger flared up instantly; this guy was really arrogant.
Ye Zhenzhu pulled He Baizhou, saying, "Sister, come with us."
Ye Zhen coldly refused: "I'm not going."
Liu Qing took Ye Zhen's hand: "She's going to the infirmary now."
"Brother Baizhou, let's take Fourth Brother to the hospital together first. Eldest Brother was also angered by Sister and left. I can't manage alone."
He Baizhou looked at Ye Zhen: "Do you want to go with them, or come with me?"
Ye Chengbei, leaning on his cane, said, "Ye Zhen, are you sure you want to get involved with these ordinary people? You're from completely different worlds."
Ye Zhen said sarcastically, "Not from the same world? Then aren't you human?"
The Ye family is wealthy and powerful, and their arrogance is innate.
So in their past lives, they all looked down on their sister who had been living away from home, thinking that she was inherently poor and uncouth and could not be presented in a respectable manner.
Ye Zhen looked at Liu Qing and said, "Let's go."
Zhou Chi'an maintained his cold expression; he had never liked wealthy people.
Ye Zhen walked away without looking back.
Ye Chengbei and He Baizhou both stared at Ye Zhen's retreating figure, their gazes filled with complex emotions.
Ye Zhenzhu gritted her teeth: "Fourth Brother, don't worry about your sister. The most important thing for you now is to go to the hospital to treat your leg. Your sister is just being stubborn; she will come back."
After being rejected by Ye Zhen, He Baizhou also felt embarrassed: "Let Ye Zhen think it through herself."
He just couldn't understand why Ye Zhen wouldn't obediently listen to him.
——
Ye Zhen went directly to the infirmary.
Liu Qing was still indignant: "Your family is simply too much. You are clearly their biological child, yet they treat that man so well. Are they out of their minds?"
"After all, I haven't been back for long, but Ye Zhenzhu has been with them for so many years, it's normal that I can't compare."
Ye Zhen smiled at Liu Qing: "Don't be angry anymore, I'm not angry at all now."
"You can still laugh."
"Because I don't care about them, I won't stay angry."
Ye Zhen's fair face carried an indifferent expression, her almond-shaped eyes curved, making her look both delicate and pitiful.
Zhou Chi'an touched his cheek with the tip of his tongue. For some reason, he felt a little pain in his face.
Could it be a lingering effect from being elbowed while playing basketball earlier?
Zhou Chi'an said impatiently, "Are you done yet? I need to go to the hospital."
Ye Zhen looked up: "You guys go first, I'm fine."
Liu Qing hesitated for a moment: "Can you manage on your own? Plus, you've had such a falling out with your family, I'm really worried you'll be abused when you go back!"
"Don't worry, they are respectable people. Someone has already called the police today, and they won't do it again."
At this point, Ye Zhen looked at Zhou Chi'an: "Oh right, I haven't thanked you for calling the police yet."
Zhou Chi'an said expressionlessly, "I didn't call the police."
Now it was Ye Zhen's turn to be surprised. Wasn't it Zhou Chi'an who called the police?
Liu Qing asked, "Who is that?"
Ye Zhen shook her head: "I don't know either. But you should go to the hospital now. I hope your grandmother's surgery will go smoothly."
Zhou Chi'an responded calmly, his expression softening slightly.
Liu Qing looked at Ye Zhen and said, "We'll be going now. Call me anytime if you need any help later. Zhou Chi'an is a really good fighter."
Zhou Chi'an frowned at Liu Qing: "If you want to do good deeds, don't drag me into this! I hate dealing with rich people the most."
Ye Zhen felt a little better after watching Liu Qing and Zhou Chi'an leave.
Does she count as having made a friend?
"What are you standing there for? Doesn't your face hurt?"
A familiar, cold voice rang out.
He Hanjing walked into the infirmary and saw the handprint on Ye Zhen's cheek. His eyes darkened instantly.
If he had known she would get hurt, he shouldn't have left.
