Han Xi smirked with derision, her clear eyes showing impatience: "Mr. Lin, please don’t impose your filthy thoughts on me. Because of Lin Weiyang’s mother, I’ve already endured a lot. If you all continue to make unreasonable trouble, I don’t mind telling Jing Han about you and your daughter’s visit to me."
Lin Dongyang’s eyes grew dark and tense; he hadn’t expected this woman to be so hard to deal with, no wonder his daughter couldn’t handle her.
But ultimately, Lin Dongyang still feared Lu Jinghan, so he could only give Han Xi a furious glance before leaving.
The office door had been slightly ajar, and Chen Zheng, standing in the corridor, had heard some of their conversation.
Han Xi felt exhausted; in the morning, Lin Weiyang had caused a scene in the hospital, and now her father came asking her to take money and leave Lu Jinghan.
Do this father and daughter think she’s easy to bully because she has no family?
Han Xi got up and walked to the window, watching the sky grow dark, suddenly remembering she needed to stay on duty at the hospital tonight. She took out her phone from the lab coat pocket and sent a WeChat message to Lu Jinghan.
[I’m on duty at the hospital tonight, won’t be going home.]
A few seconds later, she received Lu Jinghan’s reply [Can I come to the hospital to keep you company?]
[Don’t be silly, remember to pick me up tomorrow morning.]
After turning off her phone, Han Xi went to the hospital’s cafeteria.
In the evening, Li Manman was dragged by Xu Lan and Li Shitian to a restaurant for dinner. Though it was called dinner, it was actually a disguised matchmaking.
Xu Lan had heard at the mahjong table that Mrs. He’s son was about the same age as Li Manman and worked in the prosecutor’s office. So Xu Lan and Mrs. He planned this meal for the two kids to meet.
At the dining table, Li Manman politely greeted everyone, casting a discreet glance at He Yu. This man was the scholarly, fair type, not at all her type.
After greeting, Li Manman turned into a little invisible person, mindlessly sitting beside Xu Lan, eating with her head down, while listening to the various flattering and courteous exchanges, feeling goosebumps all over.
Feeling bored, Li Manman excused herself to the restroom for some air, stepping out only to hear someone in the corridor cursing Han Xi. She moved closer, patiently leaning against the wall to continue listening.
"Dad, I must marry Jing Han. Didn’t you say you’d go see that shameless vixen this afternoon? Did she take the money?"
Unsure what was said on the other end of the line, the woman facing away from Li Manman spoke ominously: "As long as she doesn’t leave Jing Han, I’ll keep causing trouble for her until she can’t hold her head up to work in the hospital."
Upon hearing this, Li Manman finally understood that the woman was Lin Weiyang.
She picked up her shoulder bag, and with all her strength swung it toward Lin Weiyang, her face filled with unbearable anger.
Completely unguarded, Lin Weiyang got hit hard, her face frozen in a daze like she’d been struck by lightning, followed by a piercing scream.
"Who are you? Why are you hitting me?" Lin Weiyang turned to look at Li Manman, raising her hand to hit back.
Before Lin Weiyang’s hand could reach, Li Manman quickly kicked her: "I, your granny, am hitting you, you shameless little b*tch! Bullying Han Xi, huh? I’ll show you what bullying is. I’ll beat you to death."
Li Manman cursed as she swung her bag at Lin Weiyang.
