Uncle Liu held Bai Yuejie’s hand, clearly feeling her pulse, and felt slightly reassured in his heart.
Upon hearing what Bai Yuejie said, Uncle Liu’s eyes flashed fiercely, "That man, I’ll flay him one day!"
Bai Yuejie thought of the discussions and insults, and felt a stabbing pain in her heart, tears streaming down as she cried out, "This person is too hateful. He said he was Tang Wu’s assistant and even produced a pile of evidence. I didn’t know how to answer. Why weren’t you there at that time..." Bai Yuejie sobbed uncontrollably, "If you had been there, I definitely wouldn’t have been scolded by so many people. Now everyone knows I plagiarized Tang Wu’s work, and that song, I didn’t even know Tang Wu wrote it for me. If only I knew... If only I had just said it was a song Tang Wu wrote for me, it definitely would have been more popular than it is now."
Uncle Liu, distressed, stroked her head and said, "Silly child, how many times have I told you, don’t regret what has been done; you only need to look forward. No matter what you did in the past, it was right."
"But now so many people are scolding me..."
"Then let them shut up!" Uncle Liu’s face hardened, "They want to judge by the works, right? With Tang Wu’s little ability, she can’t even compare to you. You’ve also written songs over the years; release them, and I refuse to believe they will be worse than Tang Wu’s!"
Hearing this, Bai Yuejie sobbed, "It’s useless, they’ll still scold me. Even if I show them my works, they’ll still say I plagiarized and copied..."
"It’s okay, leave it all to me," Uncle Liu reassured her softly, "You rest well and take good care of yourself. This kind of thing isn’t worth getting angry over."
He had already lost her mother, he couldn’t lose her as well.
These people who had humiliated her, they all needed to pay a price!
The hospital room door was knocked.
Soon after, Grandma Shi’s somewhat worried voice came through, "Has Yuejie woken up?"
Uncle Liu, hearing this voice, was displeased, "She just woke up and needs to rest quietly. You go back."
Grandma Shi’s voice obviously carried more guilt, "Yuejie, I didn’t know this was going to happen. If I knew, I wouldn’t have invited you to that kind of public event. Can you forgive me?"
Bai Yuejie instantly remembered Grandma Shi’s disappointed expression, and felt even more uncomfortable.
This old woman had already believed that Jason’s words; why bother with pretenses here?
Bai Yuejie found her utterly hateful.
"Sister Bai, that bad brother has already been arrested by the police!" Shi Mei’s voice permeated from outside, "Sister Bai is the best, Sister Bai is the best person in the world, and that bad guy will go to prison, hmph!"
Bai Yuejie finally felt somewhat relieved, her voice nasal, "You guys go back first, I’m tired."
"Okay," Shi Mei sounded very disappointed, "then Sister Bai, get well soon. Although we can’t be friends who share husbands, I’ll send you a Peppa Pig doll!"
Bai Yuejie’s mood, which had finally calmed down, felt like she had swallowed a fly once again.
From outside came Grandma Shi’s scolding voice, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid? You only know how to blabber!"
"Wuwu, it was that bad brother who said that friends have to share husbands; I don’t want to be friends then!"
"One more word and I’ll spank you!"
"Wuwu, Grandma is bad! I’m going to find Hubby, wuwu..."
Finally, the people walked away, but Bai Yuejie felt as if a thousand-pound weight were crushing her heart, making it even harder to bear.
How about that extra jab from Shi Mei~
Hahaha, is tormenting Bai Yuejie enjoyable? If anyone has more vicious ideas, feel free to share!!!
