Shi Nuan’s chest tightened, her breathing became difficult, and it was as if all the strength had been drained from her body in an instant.
She made an effort to stay clear-headed, her fingertips slowly contracting, digging into the flesh of her palm.
Yet, she couldn’t feel the pain in her palm, because the most excruciating pain was in her chest, in her heart.
She looked at the girl in front of her, covering her mouth and sobbing uncontrollably, trembling eyelashes heavy with tears, aching to offer words of comfort.
But it was as if her throat was clogged, unable to utter a single word.
Before this, Shi Nuan had never known she could feel such deep sorrow for a stranger; she didn’t understand what was happening, but she suddenly wanted to cry.
The girl wiped away her tears with a hand and continued, "Please leave, all of you just go. My brother and I never want to see any of you from the Shi family again, please just leave quickly!"
Shi Nuan’s white teeth lightly bit her rosy lips, trying hard to control her emotions, until the pain in her chest eased slightly, and she slowly spoke, "Then... what if I said that just like your brother, I am also a victim?"
The girl was stunned, a flash of confusion in her eyes, "What do you mean by that? You’re a victim? You hit my brother, yet you say you’re a victim? What are you a victim of? Losing a car?"
"No..." Shi Nuan bit her lip and said, "I am indeed the owner of that car, but the person driving it that day who hit your brother wasn’t me..."
After hearing this, the girl’s tears could not help but fall again, "Do all rich people like doing this? Cause trouble, then give some money to clean your hands of it? How shameless can you be!"
The girl didn’t actually want to scold Shi Nuan; Shi Nuan looked so fragile and pure, not like a bad person at all!
But all this time, she had been taking care of her brother, watching him turn into what he is now, and it hurt too much inside, and this pain had been suppressed for too long!
Especially after the incident, the only person from the Shi family to come around twice was Shi Yuanbo. Even though they apologized, after her brother yelled at them to leave, they never returned.
Even the subsequent issues regarding compensation were handled by lawyers directly.
Their family were all honest, straightforward people, wanting to live good lives, and trying to earn a lot of money through their efforts, but they never thought about getting it in this way!
If that money could bring back her brother’s leg, she’d rather be poor for life without any regrets!
Shi Nuan took a deep breath and said, "...I’m really sorry, but I’m telling you the truth; I am indeed not the person at fault... In other words, maybe you can understand: someone drove my car that day, hit your brother, and tried to frame me..."
When the girl heard this, she was stunned, "What... what do you mean? Who hit my brother? And why frame you?"
Shi Nuan pursed her lips, her dark eyes clear, her expression much calmer than before. fr\(e)ew(e)b.(n)o (v)(e)l.com
She looked at the girl and said, "I want to talk to your brother... Is that okay?"
Song Yansheng arrived at the hospital at 10:20 in the morning.
He was twenty minutes earlier than Shi Nuan.
However, he did not go to the patient’s ward but went to Qu Yuzuo’s office.
Actually, Qu Yuzuo was not on duty today. It was just that Song Yansheng had called him before coming to Shangming Hospital, asking him to make sure to come.
Qu Yuzuo was initially unwilling, but Song Yansheng had said, "My stomach problem acted up last night, and I want to get it checked... You know, you do my check-ups personally every year!"
