Ye Yanni's hospital room.
Ye Jingyi stared at her phone, which was now giving off a busy signal, and after a moment of shock, she turned to Zhou Ru and the others, "Jiang Chen isn't answering his phone."
"That ingrate, he's nothing but trouble, causing so much suffering and then running off, he's a complete bastard!" Zhou Ru cursed fiercely.
Ye Jianxiong said angrily, "That bastard, once he's cured Yan Ni, we should never let him into our home again."
While they were all cursing Jiang Chen, the sound of footsteps could be heard, and Zhang Long walked into the hospital room with Wu Nini.
"Lord Long?! President Wu?!"
The members of the Ye Family were startled upon seeing the two.
"Lord Long, President Wu, what brings you here?" Ye Jianxiong asked with a forced smile.
Wang Dongyang and Ye Yanni glanced at Zhang Long, and their hearts jumped, fearing that Zhang Long had been sent by Jiang Chen to deal with them.
Ye Jingyi was taken aback when she saw Zhang Long; she knew that Jiang Chen was acquainted with Zhang Long, but she didn't know what he was here for. Could it be that Jiang Chen had informed Zhang Long to seek revenge on her sister and brother-in-law?
The two ignored Ye Jianxiong and went straight to Ye Jingyi, where Wu Nini suddenly knelt down in front of her.
"What... President Wu, what are you doing?" Ye Jingyi was startled and quickly reached out to help Wu Nini.
Wu Nini hastily backed away on her knees, dodging Ye Jingyi's hand, and said urgently, "Miss Ye, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm here to apologize to you and to explain."
"Explain what?" Ye Jingyi was confused, and the members of the Ye Family watched Wu Nini with perplexity.
Wu Nini quickly continued, "Miss Ye, when you were drugged by Tu Feng in my shop, I didn't help. Later, Mr. Jiang came and rescued you, and I even tried to stop him from saving you, I'm not a good person!"
"Later, I was afraid of getting caught up in Xue Tu's mess, so I told Xue Tu that you were Mr. Jiang's family, which led him to cause trouble at Wang Dongyang's construction site and set a trap, leading Wang Dongyang and Mr. Jiang into Xue Tu's trap."
"Fortunately, Mr. Jiang is skilled, and he managed to fight off Tu Feng and the others."
"But then, for some reason, Wang Dongyang actually advised you to go and accept an apology, and as a result, Xue Tu took the opportunity to kidnap you and then called Mr. Jiang to negotiate in my shop."
"It was Mr. Jiang who subdued Tu Feng and found out where you were being held, and then he went to rescue you."
"Now, Xue Tu and his people are finished, and I don't want to die. Please forgive me; don't let Mr. Jiang kill me."
"I'm kowtowing to you!"
As she spoke, Wu Nini began to kowtow to Ye Jingyi.
"Did Mr. Jiang say he would kill you? He just asked you to apologize and explain, stop trying to slander Mr. Jiang here," Zhang Long reprimanded coldly.
Wu Nini shivered and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Jiang didn't say he wanted to kill me, no, I misspoke."
Ye Jingyi was dumbfounded.
So this was what had really happened? All this was Jiang Chen helping, and he himself, alone, risked everything to save them, while her sister and brother-in-law had lied!
I, I misjudged him again!
"Jiang Chen is that formidable?" Zhou Ru was somewhat taken aback.
Ye Jianxiong paused and muttered softly, "I hadn't realized that guy was so capable."
Wang Dongyang and Ye Yanni's faces were flushed with embarrassment, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into.
The more Ye Jingyi thought about it, the guiltier she felt, and thinking of Jiang Chen's sorrowful and heartbroken expression when he left, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
"It's done, Miss Ye, we'll be leaving now," Zhang Long said softly, glancing at Wu Nini before both of them walked out of the hospital room.
The room fell into a solemn silence.
Ye Jingyi turned her head to look at Wang Dongyang, anger in her voice as she spoke, "Brother-in-law, why would you lie? Do you find it amusing to twist the truth like this?"
"What does this have to do with me?"
Wang Dongyang looked unhappy, but still forced an argument, "If it weren't for Jiang Chen messing with Xue Tu, would we have all these problems? Would we be the ones in bad luck? Moreover, Jiang Chen is just a live-in son-in-law, a man living off a woman, and still so arrogant. Isn't that too much? Where does he put our family? With all the trouble he causes, he'll get us killed sooner or later!"
"That's right, this loser can't handle real business, but is a pro at causing trouble, and you still take his side? Go back and educate your good-for-nothing husband!" Ye Yanni glared at Ye Jingyi with a blaming look.
Zhou Ru also nodded and chimed in, "Exactly, Dongyang and Yanni are correct. It's all Jiang Chen's fault. If it weren't for him, Dongyang wouldn't have been beaten up, and Yanni wouldn't have almost been assaulted. It's all that bastard's fault."
Ye Jianxiong's expression was also dark, "That's right. He thinks just because he can fight, he can cause trouble everywhere. Sooner or later, this family will be destroyed because of him."
Not a single person in this family wanted to see Jiang Chen do well. If Jiang Chen was doing well, they would feel uncomfortable, feeling inferior to a live-in son-in-law, their faces unable to hang on to their pride, they all began to curse Jiang Chen one after another.
Ye Jingyi, with her chest heaving in anger, gritted her teeth and responded, "By saying this about him, do you not want him to come and cure sister of the poison?"
The people were stunned, caught off-guard.
Zhou Ru shouted, "Of course, he must cure the poison! Call Jiang Chen right now, tell him to hurry back and cure Yan Ni. If he doesn't come back, he's not welcome in our home anymore."
"Right, make him hurry back, a guy living off a woman and still daring to show attitude—get him back here immediately!" Ye Jianxiong said with a dark face.
With no choice, Ye Jingyi shook her head and turned to look at Wang Dongyang and Ye Yanni, "I can call him back, but you must apologize to him."
"I am your sister…" Ye Yanni began to protest.
"Alright, alright, I know. Just hurry up and call Jiang Chen," Wang Dongyang pulled Ye Yanni back, speaking impatiently.
Left with no other choice, Ye Jingyi took out her phone and made the call to Jiang Chen.
"Hello?" The phone connected, and Jiang Chen's drunken voice came through the handset.
Ye Jingyi paused for a moment, then asked softly, "Jiang Chen, where are you?"
"Imperial Bar."
"Bar? Why did you go to a bar?" Ye Jingyi asked in surprise.
"Drinking, is that not allowed?"
Ye Jingyi paused again, then realized that due to her misunderstanding, coupled with her family's scolding, Jiang Chen perished with sorrow in his heart and went to drink his troubles away.
"Don't drink too much. I'm coming to find you!" Ye Jingyi advised before hanging up.
"He went to drink? Does he have no conscience? Yan Ni is still lying sick in bed, and he runs off to drink?!" Zhou Ru heard Ye Jingyi on the phone and cursed out loud.
Ye Jianxiong said coldly, "This Jiang Chen, he's really worthless. Make him come back immediately!"
Ye Jingyi glanced at Ye Jianxiong and the others, frowning slightly.
"What are you waiting for? Ye Jingyi, what are you standing there for? Do you want to see something bad happen to me?" Ye Yanni saw Ye Jingyi standing still and scolded her angrily.
Zhou Ru gave Ye Jingyi a shove, "What are you doing standing around? Hurry up!"
Ye Jingyi looked at Zhou Ru, then turned to Wang Dongyang and Ye Yanni, confirming with a serious expression, "Are you sure you'll apologize to Jiang Chen when he comes?"
"Ugh, yes, we're sure. Are you annoying or what? Just hurry up!" Ye Yanni glared at Ye Jingyi.
Zhou Ru pushed Ye Jingyi again and said angrily, "Why so many words? Hurry up and bring him back, and if you can't bring him back, don't come back yourself!"
Helpless, Ye Jingyi looked back at her family and then turned to leave the hospital room.
