Liu Yaozong was stubborn. Seeing Liu Wan Quan raise his hand, he tilted his head and deliberately pushed his face forward. "Come on! Hit me here! Hit me!"
Liu Wan Quan gnashed his teeth in anger and raised his hand to slap him hard—
Xia Wei Liang shot up, grabbed Liu Yaozong behind her, and kicked Liu Wan Quan in the stomach. "A man who bullies his wife and children is the most useless!"
Liu Yaozong was stunned. Looking at Xia Wei Liang, who stood protectively in front of him, his eyes welled up, and tears threatened to fall again.
He sniffled hard, holding back his tears.
Liu Wan Quan, kicked squarely in the stomach, sprawled on the floor. "Ouch!"
Bao Fang, seeing her husband fall, started to reach out to help him, then quietly withdrew her hand.
"Dad!"
Xia Yi Ran deliberately called out loudly, "Dad! How are you? Doctor! Doctor!"
Hearing this, Liu Wan Quan immediately understood. He clutched his stomach and began to cry out, "It hurts so much! Where is the doctor? No, I'm dying… Ouch…"
Liu Yaozong's eyes were practically blue with anger. "Dad! What are you doing? Are you not embarrassed enough already?"
Bao Fang also anxiously tried to persuade him, "Wan Quan, don't do this, get up quickly! You…"
"Shut up!" Liu Wan Quan glared at her fiercely, as if blaming her for everything that had happened today.
Bao Fang bit her lip and lowered her head, falling silent again.
Xia Wei Liang sneered, walking past them to pull the door wider. "Security guard, please call a doctor."
The hospital director had already been alerted. Xia Wei Liang was associated with Fourth Master, and whatever she said had to be obeyed.
After all, the entire hospital was萧 family property. Who would dare offend the future young mistress?
Soon, a doctor arrived.
Many people were gathered in the hallway, and Xia Wei Liang was generous, letting them gawk.
Xia Yi Ran was still loudly accusing, "Xia Wei Liang! My dad is an old man, why did you deliberately kick him? If you have any anger, take it out on me! Why trouble an elderly person?"
Whispers began to spread through the crowd.
Xia Wei Liang simply shrugged, making no move to defend herself. Instead, she looked down at her phone, typing a message.
"Call the police! Daughter, call the police quickly!"
Liu Wan Quan lay on his son's hospital bed, letting the doctor examine him from head to toe. "You must examine me thoroughly! If anything happens to me, Xia Wei Liang will be sued!"
The doctor frowned and indifferently pressed his stomach. "Does it hurt here? Does it hurt here?"
"Ouch, it hurts! It hurts!" Liu Wan Quan cried out. "It's here! Hurry, call the police! She kicked something out of place!"
The doctor sneered, "This is a pressure point; it hurts no matter who presses it. Why don't you just call the police and have me arrested too?"
A burst of laughter erupted from the hallway.
Liu Wan Quan's face changed, and he pointed an accusing finger at the doctor's nose, yelling, "You're in on it together!"
"Sir, am I the doctor or are you? Am I to be wrongly accused if I don't diagnose as you wish? I don't know what grievances you have with this young lady, but I am responsible for my patient! If you disagree, you can file a complaint with my superiors, and I will accept any investigation. However, if this is all your baseless accusation, I will also use the law to protect my rights."
The doctor's impassioned speech was met with a round of applause.
"Support!"
"Yes, support! Doctors work so hard, and some people, just because they are patients, act like their fathers possess them! They're the ones who ruin the doctor-patient relationship!"
"Look at him lying there shouting so loudly, perhaps he needs surgery? Doctor, arrange surgery quickly! Don't delay and let him die here, or his family will come back to pester you! I think his daughter is no good either, you need to be careful!"
The doctor smiled kindly at the crowd. "Thank you all. I do my job with professionalism and a clear conscience, and I'm not afraid of them making trouble."
"Good!"
"Well said!"
Xia Wei Liang watched from the side, a slight smile on her lips.
The doctors at this hospital were quite something! This was clearly someone who came prepared with their words!
Unbeknownst to them, this particular doctor was known for his sharp wit and had been specifically assigned by the director to assist.
Liu Wan Quan's face turned a mixture of red and green from the doctor's words, while Xia Yi Ran clenched her fists, glaring at the doctor and then piercingly at Xia Wei Liang.
Liu Wan Quan boomed, "Yi Ran! Call the police!"
Liu Yaozong's face flushed red with anger. "Fine, you call! I can prove that Sister Wei Liang didn't do anything! You fell yourself!"
Bao Fang gritted her teeth. "I can also testify."
Liu Wan Quan stared at them in disbelief. "You two ungrateful wretches! Are you siding with outsiders to bully me?"
"Don't say any more, let the police handle it!" Liu Yaozong knew his father's temper too well. He wouldn't shed tears until he saw the coffin, so he decided to confront him head-on!
Outside, people chimed in, "Do you need witnesses? I can also testify! He fell on his own!"
"That's right, I saw it too!"
"Me too!"
Liu Wan Quan trembled with rage. "Good! Yi Ran! What are you standing there for? Make the call!"
Liu Wan Quan was determined to press the issue to the very end, but Xia Yi Ran hesitated.
The situation was unfavorable to her, and Liu Wan Quan's excessive display was creating a bad impression among the bystanders, which would reflect poorly on her.
So, she changed her tune and said softly, "Dad, let's forget it. Miss Xia might be in a bad mood. Considering she helped Mom, let's just let it go."
Liu Wan Quan frowned. Though extremely reluctant, he nodded. "Since you're pleading for her, then…"
"No! Don't let it go! Please don't!"
Xia Wei Liang raised her hand, interrupting the father and daughter's performance. "And don't talk about pleading or anything. I don't need any favors. Let's deal with things separately. My helping Aunt has absolutely nothing to do with you, and you don't have that much influence! Before you put yourself on a pedestal, please measure your face size!"
Laughter erupted from outside. "Well said!"
Xia Wei Liang continued, "Xia Yi Ran, how many times have you visited your mother since she was hospitalized? On the contrary, it's your so-called useless brother who has been busy taking care of her! I heard I was here and you rushed over. How could I not know that I'm more important to you than your own mother? Since that's the case, I'll discipline you on behalf of Aunt, I don't mind."
"Xia Wei Liang, don't take advantage of me!" Xia Yi Ran hated her immensely. "Our family is falling apart because of you!"
Liu Wan Quan also resentfully declared, "I've never seen such a vicious girl!"
Xia Wei Liang smiled. "Alright then, I'll show you what true viciousness is. Originally, I wasn't planning to pursue your slander and fraud. Since you're strongly requesting it, let's pursue it a little."
Xia Yi Ran's face changed. "What… what do you want to do?"
It wasn't just her. Bao Fang and Liu Yaozong also looked worried, glancing at Xia Wei Liang with concern.
Liu Wan Quan was a little panicked now, but he still stubbornly said, "Hmph, do whatever you want, old man isn't afraid!"
Xia Wei Liang lowered her gaze, her smile becoming even fainter. "If you make a mistake, you have to pay the price."
