"No need! Master Jiang, we’re here specifically to visit Jiang Lei."
Wu Pingjing was smart, gaining Jiang Honest’s favor at this moment could achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Jiang Lei looked at himself, then at the room full of people, what status did he really hold?
He was surprised that he was in such high demand.
"Master Jiang, since you have guests, we’ll leave first!"
Li Caiqi hurriedly pulled Liu Mengxin, ready to leave.
They couldn’t afford to provoke these imposing people.
"Wait a minute! Why rush off so quickly? The matter isn’t settled, and you’re leaving? That’s not appropriate!"
Xu Meng was going all out for her son.
The Wu family had never feared anyone in their life.
Just a small hospital director daring to be so arrogant—if they didn’t take him down a peg or two, it’d be a waste of the god-given opportunity.
An opportunity to earn points in front of Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Li Caiqi paused; there was no way this would end peacefully.
Liu Mengxin might have seemed arrogantly domineering just now, but she was typical of bullying the soft and fearing the hard.
Bullying Jiang Lei and Jiang Honest was one thing; she thought they posed no threat to her.
But in front of Xu Meng, she immediately chickened out.
Li Caiqi spoke politely.
"May I know how to address the three of you? What relationship do you have with Jiang Lei? After all, this is our private affair, and it has nothing to do with you."
Neither servile nor overbearing, after all, he was someone who had seen the world.
They didn’t offend people, but that didn’t mean they were afraid of offending people.
The people in front of them didn’t seem fearsome enough, so Li Caiqi decided to ask the other party their identity before deciding what to do next.
Xu Meng smiled and said, "Well then, you’re truly mistaken. What do you mean by private affair? The things you said just now aren’t private. Your son brazenly committed a highway robbery, stabbed someone, and wanted to bribe the victim to change their testimony.
That’s a private affair? I really didn’t know private matters were defined this way."
Jiang Lei and Jiang Honest realized these people were confronting the opposite side without hesitation, all for the sake of their father and son.
Finally, someone spoke a fair word.
Li Caiqi’s expression darkened after being called out.
"Comrade, you’re neither public security nor police, and weren’t at the scene to see the truth. Neither you nor I saw what happened at the time, but my son clearly stated that it wasn’t highway robbery at all.
They simply had a minor dispute that escalated into violence. My son certainly wouldn’t lie."
Li Caiqi had eloquence.
Jiang Lei angrily replied, "You trust your son, so you mean I’m lying? Let me tell you, your son did commit the highway robbery, he was holding a knife at the time and shouting at us to leave our goods. Don’t think no one saw, there were so many people that day, if the police round them up.
Someone will testify about what happened that day, and there were plenty of onlookers; I don’t believe no one can testify. Also, you just tried to bribe me to change my testimony, which is a fact. If your son didn’t do anything wrong, why would you try to bribe me? Isn’t that obvious?"
At this moment, Jiang Lei inexplicably found his courage.
Xu Meng looked at Jiang Lei and felt very satisfied; they needed to back Jiang Lei, but he also had to stand up himself, otherwise, they couldn’t justly take advantage of their influence.
That would truly be bullying with power.
"We weren’t bribing; we saw you were injured and out of sympathy, wanted to provide some assistance. You mustn’t twist the facts."
Li Caiqi thought about quickly finding someone to fill in the gaps in Jiang Lei’s story.
"How am I twisting the facts? It’s clear that I was the most seriously injured, on the brink of life and death, saved by the doctors. And your son merely had a fracture, lying in the hospital pretending to be in a coma with a fake certificate.
Who are you fooling? Wasn’t it just because you said earlier that your father-in-law is the director of this hospital, that’s why you dared to falsify things so blatantly?"
Jiang Lei was furious, wronged and suffocated.
Liu Mengxin glared at Jiang Lei, refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit.
It seemed she was right all along; if she hadn’t prepared early on, they might really be caught by these people.
"Don’t you talk nonsense. My father-in-law, though a director, doesn’t meddle in these trivial matters. Moreover, my father-in-law is upright and honest, he’d never do what you’re accusing to protect his own child."
Liu Mengxin was confident, her son’s medical report was signed by another doctor, having nothing to do with her father-in-law.
In this matter, her father-in-law had never intervened from the beginning to the end.
"Isn’t this simple? Whether your son faked the medical report, I’ll just go find Dean Feng. Let them do an examination, so many experts are here now, with a consultation, they can tell with one glance what your son’s situation is.
One person can falsify, but not all the experts can be bribed to falsify by your family."
Xu Meng wasn’t worried; regarding her son’s treatment, her family had spent a lot on this matter, indeed the hospital had invited numerous experts, many from out of town, arranged in guesthouses, ready for consultation at any time.
Li Caiqi broke out in a cold sweat.
The other party seemed very familiar with Dean Feng from the way they spoke.
If true, wouldn’t he be causing trouble for his own father?
"No need, really no need to go to such trouble."
Secretly thinking this was a tough situation.
Wu Pingjing smiled, "Wu Fei, go find your Grandpa Feng. This matter concerns the reputation of Dean Feng and their hospital, it must be thoroughly investigated, otherwise anyone can use their family’s influence to falsify medical reports in the hospital, wrong others, and invert right and wrong.
Such matters, if spread in the future, could ruin your Grandpa Feng’s lifelong reputation. We can’t sit and watch your Grandpa Feng be deceived ."
Wu Fei responded readily, "Alright! Third Uncle, you wait!"
Li Caiqi hearing this, thought it was bad.
"Mr. Wu, can we have a word in private?"
Hearing him call out to Wu Fei, Wu Fei calling him Third Uncle, this person must be surnamed Wu.
Wu Pingjing shook his head, "Anything you have to say can be said here, there’s nothing that can’t be shared."
This person lacked discernment.
Did he really think that with his background, he could suppress himself, forcing him not to mind this business?
Li Caiqi saw the situation escalating, hurriedly apologized.
"Mr. Wu, earlier it truly was a misunderstanding. Though my son is in a coma, the doctor said it’s nothing serious. He’ll wake up soon. No need to trouble Dean Feng for such a small matter."
If they do call Mr. Feng, what good would that do him?
His own father would be implicated.
If they didn’t bow now, it wouldn’t just be a matter of bowing later.
"Misunderstanding! Haha, then you explain to Dean Feng yourself."
Wu Pingjing made it big on purpose to let Jiang Xiaoxiao know.
They weren’t afraid of blowing things up.
They were prepared to do anything for Jiang Lei.
