Qiao Weiyang turned to leave, but Old Madam Qiao grabbed her clothes. âYouâre not allowed to leave! Qiao Weiyang, you caused something to happen to Jierou.
Youâre not allowed to leave!â
Qiao Weiyang couldnât argue with Old Madam Qiao, who was already on the verge of collapse. She couldnât push her away either. She only stopped in her tracks and was pulled into the car to go to the hospital.
Qiao Jierou was sent to the hospitalâs operating room. (Xiao Jierouâs cries quickly came from inside.
Mrs. Lin was extremely anxious. âWhatâs going on?â
Old Madam Qiaoâs face was ashen. âIf anything happens to Jierou, Qiao
Weiyang, Iâll make you pay the price!â
Qiao Weiyang watched coldly, wanting to see what else Qiao Jierou was up to.
It had to be said that it was amusing to expose Qiao Jierouâs little trick in public.
Qiao Jierou was pushed out.
She lay on the hospital bed, her face pale. There was still a fresh scar on the right side of her face.
âDoctor, howâs my daughter?â Huang Shumin asked anxiously.
âHowâs the child?â Mrs. Lin was also very concerned about the situation. âIâm sorry, but the child couldnât be saved,â the doctor said, shaking his head.
âAh!â There was a burst of disappointment.
At this moment, there was not only the Qiao family around. Many guests who had come to pay their respects today had also followed the family to the hospital out of concern for the situation. They were very worried.
Hearing that Qiao Jierouâs child was gone, everyone was very disappointed.
âOld Master Qiao just passed away, and Jierouâs child is gone too. Why are such things happening to the Qiao family one after another?â
âWhat a pity. Children are the hope of this family. Now, oneâs gone just like that.â
âSigh.â
Qiao Jierou suddenly sat up agitatedly and pointed at Qiao Weiyang. âSister, youâre so ruthless! If you resent me, just come at me. Why must you harm my child?! My son!â
Mrs. Lin couldnât help but say, âQiao Weiyang, what did you do to my grandson?â
Huang Shumin also rushed over to hit Qiao Weiyang, but she was stopped by Song Hanzhi and the nurse. âWhat are you doing? This is a hospital, not a market! Calm down!â
âWeiyang, come sit in my office for a while,â Song Hanzhi suggested.
âNo one is allowed to leave until the matter is clarified!â Old Madam Qiao shouted sternly.
Qiao Weiyang had no intention of leaving either. She said calmly, âAlright, letâs make things clear. Let everyone see the truth.â
There were no good relatives and friends standing around. Since the matter had already happened and would be explained clearly, it was a good opportunity for everyone to publicize it.
Madam Lin was the first to ask, âJierou, tell me what happened just now.â
âJust now, I saw Sister looking for Brother Heng to talk in the mourning hall.
After a while, even the servants were told to go out. I was worried and went to take a look, but Sister chased me out unhappily.â
Everyone looked at each other, obviously not expecting Qiao Weiyang and Lin Heng to have a private conversation.
Qiao Jierou was pregnant, but they were still acting like that. Just listening to it made people find it unbearable.
They looked at Qiao Weiyang with more condemnation.
âMy sister chased me out and started arguing with me. During the argument, she slapped me and pushed me to the ground. I was in a daze and fell. When I reacted, I was already bleedingâ¦â
Qiao Jierou cried pitifully. She kept calling out for her son, earning the tears of the onlookers.
She was not afraid of Qiao Weiyangâs retort. Anyway, these were all facts. At least, they were irrefutable facts.
Huang Shumin said angrily, âIâll beat you to death, you shameless b*tch!â She rushed toward Qiao Weiyang, but she was still blocked by Song Hanzhiâs men.
She refused to give up.
Qiao Qijie also pointed at Qiao Weiyang. âUnfilial daughter! How did the Qiao family give birth to such an unfilial daughter like you?! Youâre driving me to my grave!â
Qiao Weiyang remained calm among these people. Song Hanzhi could not help much and could only worry.
Qiao Weiyang said calmly, âQiao Jierou, do you have any evidence that I slapped you?â
âYou hit me! You wore the ring Grandpa left for you today and hit my face, which left a scar!â
Qiao Jierou pointed at Qiao Weiyang and said.
The others couldnât help but feel that Qiao Weiyang was vicious. âShe made her sister lose her child and even disfigured her. Sheâs truly despicable!â
âThatâs right. Theyâre sisters, after all. How could she do that?â
Qiao Weiyang showed her finger and said, âEveryone has seen that the ring is on my right hand. Logically speaking, if I wanted to slap you, it would only leave a mark on the left side of your face. Why is it on the right side?â
Qiao Jierou said, âWho can know for sure that you didnât wear it on your left hand before changing it back to your right hand?â
This was a good reason.
Qiao Weiyang smiled. âAfter Grandpa passed away, the three of us put on the rings he gave us. The rings are of the same style, so Iâm sure we wonât be able to get any results even if we check the injury. After all, the rings are of the same style and texture, right?â
âSister, what are you trying to say?â Qiao Jierou asked.
âYou said that my ring scratched your face. Logically speaking, there should be traces of your skin on my ring, right?â
Qiao Weivang reached out and showed the ring. âOr are you going to accuse me of swapping rings with someone after slapping you?â
Song Hanzhi immediately said, âThatâs right. Weâll know whatâs going on once we check if there are any skin particles on the ring. The incident is still fresh. If youâre worried, we can call the police to witness and verify it!â
Qiao Jierou subconsciously retracted her hand.
In order to act better just now, she had slapped herself. Now, there must still be traces of her skin on her ring. If they did this, she would be exposed.
She didnât dare to say anything else.
Huang Shumin said angrily, âSo be it. Why would we be afraid?â
Qiao Jierou stammered, âI⦠Iâm not sure if it really was my sisterâs ring that hurt my face. The situation was very chaotic at that time. Maybe my own ring touched my faceâ¦â
âQiao Jierou, did my ring touch your face or yours?â Qiao Weiyang asked.
âI-I-Iâm not too sure.â
Her attitude made everyone suspicious of her. How could she suddenly not know?
âJierou, tell us. We can all help you!â a relative said.
âJierou, are you mistaken? Youâre injured on the right side of your face, and
Weiyangâs ring is on her left hand.. Did she slap you from behind?â
