Upon hearing the voice, Ding Huizhu instinctively tensed up and looked up: "Madam."
However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she saw Old Madam He raise her cane and fiercely strike the girl next to her on the head.
The force of that blow was extremely heavy, and the old woman's fierce eyes were frightening.
Ding Huizhu was startled and instinctively wanted to step forward to stop her, but she gave up in an instant.
If she tries to stop her, she will definitely be seriously injured as well.
Anyway, Xie Li deserved to suffer these consequences, and only in this way could the He family's anger be completely quelled.
In that instant, many people's hearts were in their throats, and even the dean instinctively shouted, "Madam, don't hit people!"
How could Old Mrs. He listen to him? She was used to being domineering, and her eyes gleamed with a sharp light. She was determined to give this girl who had injured her grandson a good beating!
However, the cane never came down.
Xie Li grabbed the cane with one hand, glanced at Old Madam He, and asked, "Why did you hit someone?"
Madam He took two heavy breaths, trying to press down harder, but found that Xie Li's wrist, which looked slender and weak, was surprisingly strong. She was so angry that her face turned red and she couldn't move an inch. She was so angry that she almost fainted.
This turn of events caught everyone off guard, leaving them stunned for a moment.
Ding Huizhu, on the other hand, reacted quickly. She stepped forward and scolded Xie Li, "Xie Li, let go right now! If something happens to the old lady, can you afford to pay for it?"
Xie Li: "No, she's going to hit someone." This old lady looks old, but she's very healthy and won't die of anger anytime soon.
If she really let go, given the strength in Old Madam He's hands and the hatred in her eyes, she would probably hit her with a cane right away.
Seeing that Xie Li refused to let go, Ding Huizhu felt increasingly angry, and Old Madam He's eyes were filled with even more rage.
"I told you to let go! Who told you to be so rough with your hands!" She looked at Xie Li's wrist, her heart pounding with fear. She had experienced Xie Li's strength firsthand.
In her anger, she didn't even have time to call for help; she went straight forward and pulled Xie Li's hand away.
Seeing that Ding Huizhu insisted, Xie Li obediently let go of her hand and took a step back.
In that instant, a glint flashed in Old Mrs. He's eyes. She loosened her grip on her cane and immediately swung it down heavily.
"Ah!" Ding Huizhu screamed in agony.
Because she was at the front, Grandma He's cane hit her shoulder directly, and she immediately burst into tears from the pain.
In that instant, she could hardly believe it. She felt both pain and anger in her heart. Why was she the one who got beaten up?
Xie Li: "I told you she would hit people." Unfortunately, Ding Huizhu wouldn't listen and insisted on helping Old Madam He.
According to her plan, she would simply throw away the old woman's cane, and then the other woman would lose her power.
Grandma He glared at Xie Li with hatred: "If anything happens to my grandson, ten of your worthless lives wouldn't be enough to compensate for it!"
Xie Li remained silent for a moment. She felt that she had already shown great respect to the elderly by not retaliating.
"Can't you be reasonable?"
"Thank you!" Ding Huizhu knew from her opening line that it wasn't a nice thing. Although half of her shoulder was numb and aching from being hit, and her eyes were brimming with tears, she still forced back her tears and said to Old Madam He, "Madam, please don't be angry. We came here to apologize to you..."
"Apologize? What's the use of apologizing? Will an apology wake my grandson up right away?" Old Mrs. He pounded the ground with her cane, refusing to back down.
“Yes,” Xie Li suddenly said. “I can wake him up immediately.”
