Chapter 82 The Madness of the Rich Family and the Fake Heiress 26
The Ye family is considered a small but prominent family in Sihanoukville. This series of events has attracted the media like wolves eyeing meat, and they rush to report on even the slightest disturbance. The news can't be kept secret.
Moreover, with so many doctors, nurses, patients, family members, and surveillance cameras in the hospital, such a commotion spread almost instantly.
In the video, a 70-year-old woman is holding a rusty kitchen knife with many nicks. She first hides the knife in her waistband behind her back, and because she is wearing loose clothing, it is not easy to spot. After entering the hospital, her goal is very clear.
They went straight to Lin Meijuan's ward. After confirming that the person lying on the bed was Lin Meijuan, they called out to her to avoid mistaking her. The old woman never hurt anyone by mistake. She pulled out two kitchen knives from her waistband and started hacking wildly, followed by deafening screams.
Shen Jixue watched the video circulating online. Lin Meijuan, who was already missing an eye and an ear, was hacked and bleeding profusely. She turned her head away, feeling a little sad because it was too bloody.
Even if you're with someone every day, if there's no affection, there's no affection; she just has mixed feelings.
In a corner out of Shen Jixue's sight, Butler Liu nodded slightly to Shen Ci. This was his pledge of loyalty, proving that although he had worked for the Ye family for so many years, he was not an undercover agent sent by the Ye family.
Butler Liu had no children and had worked for the Ye family for most of his life, only to be humiliated into a lowly servant by Ye Canxing with a single slap.
This slap brought Butler Liu to his senses instantly.
"Evil people will be punished by evil people. Lin Meijuan gave money to someone to steal the child, and then took the money back, which led to Qiu Ping's son, who was waiting for surgery fees, ultimately not being saved."
The sins committed will always have to be repaid. She was bitten by Qiu Ping in prison and slashed by Qiu Ping's mother-in-law in the hospital—it's all retribution. It has nothing to do with you; you are also a victim. If you're scared, then don't watch.
Shen Ci turned off the video for her. Even if Granny Qiu Ping was an old woman who could hurt people quickly, the security guards would arrive just as quickly. She was too old and too easy to catch. However, she had the opportunity to take revenge, so she was willing to be caught.
They got revenge and also solved the problem of retirement.
At that time, Ye Canxing was making her debut performance. With the Ye family investing in her, coupled with her own good qualities, and the media attention and fans she brought, her debut was relatively smooth.
"Sister Canxing, something's happened!"
The assistant held the phone. Ye Canxing had just finished singing and dancing and was panting heavily when she saw the video. She was stunned! The water glass in her hand crashed to the ground.
"My mother...something happened to her!"
Ye Canxing stared at the screen in horror and unbearable pain. Why did this have to happen now of all times? This was such an important moment for her! She was peacefully receiving treatment in her hospital bed, how could something like this suddenly happen? Is the hospital's security really that bad?
"Sister Canxing, the next show is about to start. Are you... going to the hospital now?" the assistant asked, observing her expression.
Ye Canxing was hesitating, wondering whether to choose her future or her family. If she went now, Lin Meijuan would still be in a coma and probably still needing emergency treatment. What good would it do? She wouldn't be able to say a word.
"Sister Canxing, the phone."
Looking down, Ye Canxing saw it was his older brother. With a heavy heart, he answered the phone and was met with a barrage of scolding from Ye Heng.
"Mom had an accident, didn't you know? Why haven't you come yet?"
"Your mom loves you so much, why aren't you at the hospital right now!"
Ye Canxing's initial five points of hesitation had dwindled to only two. "It's almost my turn to go on stage, I can't leave now..."
"Don't you have a heart? That's your own mother. Get to the hospital right now, or you're not allowed to enter the entertainment industry anymore, and the family will no longer support you."
Ye Heng is used to being a dictator; once he takes over, his word is law. This younger sister, on the other hand, has always been exceptionally obedient and listens to them. At a time like this, instead of coming to the hospital to care for her family, she's thinking of continuing her performance?!
"What's the point of making me go to the hospital? I'm not a doctor. Will Mom get better if I go? She's probably in emergency care right now. What can I do if I go?"
I've already said that this is a crucial time for my career, so why don't you support me and instead threaten me?
If I go there now, Mom will get better immediately, and I will definitely rush over without hesitation. Brother, aren't you there?
I'll come over as soon as I'm done here.
Ye Canxing got annoyed, quickly finished her rambling and hung up the phone immediately. She wasn't worried much about her mother, only annoyed at being disturbed. Wasn't this putting her in a difficult position?
Then, as usual, she went on stage to perform. Shen Ci, who was watching the video at home, tapped the screen and said to Shen Jixue, "See? What did I tell you?"
Even my own daughter isn't worried or burdened by this, so you, a child stolen by human traffickers, shouldn't feel anything is inappropriate."
After the performance, Ye Canxing bowed deeply to the audience and tearfully confessed her guilt, claiming that she had performed with a heavy heart and hoped that everyone would like it. She said she had just learned that her mother had an accident and needed to go to the hospital immediately. This move gained her even more fans.
Ye Canxing dared not lose the support of the Ye family, but he also did not want to give up his acting career easily. It was only just beginning. Although he had returned to the Ye family, things were not as wonderful as he had imagined.
Her parents said they loved her and liked her, and on the surface, the family seemed happy and harmonious. They would give her pocket money, but that was far from enough for her. As for more important things, they didn't give her company shares, real estate, or a car.
With no one around and his mother in the emergency room, Ye Heng, exhausted, pressed his forehead, looked at his phone again and again, and finally dialed an unfamiliar number.
"Silent Snow..."
Can you come to the hospital to see Mom?
"Mom might... not make it this far. She came to see me one last time."
Before Ye Canxing arrived, Ye Heng called Shen Jixue. Shen Jixue neither agreed nor disagreed; she was in a state of confusion. She had many expectations for the Ye family, but had also suffered disappointment and abuse there.
She wasn't happy living in the Ye family, but for some reason, seeing Lin Meijuan slashed and near death didn't make her happy either. She told Shen Ci how she felt, and thankfully, she wasn't all alone now.
"That's because you're kind. You're a kind child. Even if others treat you badly, you can't bear it."
"Change your clothes. We're going to the hospital now. Bring plenty of bodyguards. As long as we protect ourselves, we can do whatever we want."
If it were a true villain, they would take advantage of your weakness to kill you, but Shen Jixue did not.
