Mrs. Fu, please be mindful of the appropriate boundaries.

Need to ask her something? What is it?

Zhong Wanxiu was completely baffled. What could possibly make the old lady come to her door without even making a phone call?

Even if it's urgent, the younger generation will rush over after just one phone call.

But now Zhong Wanxiu is also anxious.

But no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't push the old lady away, so he could only say, "Mom, what's wrong?"

The old lady noticed she was still checking her watch and looked anxious. She frowned slightly and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry? What's the matter?"

"I'm going to Huanan Hospital. I asked Shenghua to help me get an ear surgery for a child. The surgery was scheduled for a few days, but it seems there was some misunderstanding and they said they wouldn't do it anymore. I want to go and see." Zhong Wanxiu told the truth, but she also automatically ignored the fact that Xu Qingcheng had asked her to find someone.

"Ear surgery?" the old lady repeated. The information said that the little baby had a problem with his left ear, a congenital condition.

"Um."

Zhong Wanxiu helped the old lady inside, and Jiang Wenyu asked her, "How much do you know about Qingcheng's situation?"

Zhong Wanxiu was taken aback. Did the old lady come by smelling the aroma?

"I don't know much. She's a designer at X now. She contacted me a while ago, asking me to introduce her to Shenghua, because her relative's child has hearing problems. Just now, Shenghua called to say that they're not doing the surgery anymore, so I thought I'd go and see."

The old woman stopped abruptly in her tracks. "Whose child is this? A relative's?"

……

Xu Qingcheng was taken to the police station. The hospital's surveillance video captured the entire conversation, but the conversation between the two could not be heard at all.

The facts are clear: assault is wrong. The fact that the person assaulted is a doctor elevates the offense to another level, resulting in administrative detention.

Xie Yin arranged for someone to bail Xu Qingcheng out. "Why did you get into a fight with Wen Fei? If you don't like her, don't hit her in the hospital. If you're going to hit her, at least put a bag over her head. How could you do this, hitting her under the surveillance cameras?"

Xu Qingcheng had a headache; her mind was buzzing. In that situation, she hadn't been calm at all, and she hadn't thought about surveillance or the possibility of being held accountable and criminally prosecuted for disrupting medical services.

"Brother Yin, take me to the hospital." Xu Qingcheng sat in the car, feeling somewhat weak.

"What are we going to the hospital for? The nanny and Xu Yuan have already gone home." Xie Yin started the car. He didn't know that Wen Fei was Pang Shenghua's student. His friend at the police station said that Qingcheng couldn't accept the surgical risks mentioned by the doctor. But Xie Yin felt that Qingcheng probably harbored resentment towards Fu Jingting's fiancée.

"Take me there." Xu Qingcheng didn't explain. She was in a state of confusion. Even if she were imprisoned, she wouldn't regret hitting Wen Fei.

However, when I received a call from Dr. Pang, he refused to perform the surgery on Yuanyuan. The surgery time had already been set. The examination was done today, the admission procedures were completed tomorrow, and the surgery could be performed the day after tomorrow.

Xu Qingcheng's eyes were red. She was fine with herself, but she didn't want Xu Yuan to suffer any injustice.

Why couldn't you have been a little calmer?!

Upon arriving at the hospital, Xu Qingcheng didn't wait for Xie Yin to stop the car. She got out and headed straight for Dr. Pang's office, but was stopped outside. This was understandable, as Dr. Pang didn't see patients herself, and her office wasn't open to the public.

The news of Xu Qingcheng assaulting someone has now spread throughout the entire hospital, and every medical staff member who recognizes her looks at her with prejudice.

Xu Qingcheng had no choice but to call Dr. Pang, but he didn't answer.

A short while later, Xu Qingcheng saw Dr. Pang come out, and she quickly followed him.

"Dr. Pang, you were the one who decided on Xu Yuan's surgical plan the whole time, and the surgery is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, so why the sudden change of doctors..."

"You can also consider other hospitals or other doctors. This is not an urgent surgery, and it doesn't have to be done now. You have enough time to make a choice." Dr. Pang's tone was harsh, completely lacking the gentleness and enthusiasm she had shown before. Xu Qingcheng knew that she was angry about her hitting someone, and she had made it very clear on the phone before.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Pang, I acted impulsively, but..."

"The person you should apologize to isn't me, it's the person you hit," Pang Shenghua interrupted Xu Qingcheng sharply. "I have other things to do, don't bother me anymore."

"Dr. Pang."

Xu Qingcheng caught up with Pang Shenghua, tears streaming down her face. "I'll apologize to Dr. Wen, and I'm willing to take responsibility for any compensation I might be required to do. But could you please continue performing the surgery on Xu Yuan?"

Pang Shenghua stopped in her tracks, frowning as she looked at Xu Qingcheng's tearful eyes. "It's not that I'm heartless, you should know I'm not taking on these cases anymore. I told you about the risks of the surgery before, how could you..."

Pang Shenghua was genuinely angry, not because Wen Fei was her student, but because of the seriousness of the medical disturbance, which truly threatened the lives of frontline medical staff.

They are on the front lines of treating and saving lives; it is their duty. They never expect anything in return, but at the very least, they deserve respect.

"I'm so sorry, but please continue with the surgery I requested." Xu Qingcheng bowed deeply to Pang Shenghua, tears streaming down her face and falling to the ground.

The hospital floor gleamed, and tears were clearly visible on it.

The hospital was already crowded, and everyone gathered around to look. Pang Shenghua's face was not good. He turned to leave, but suddenly heard an old and powerful voice, "Girl, straighten your back."

Pang Shenghua turned her head and saw Zhong Wanxiu helping an old lady over.

The old man didn't even linger on Pang Shenghua; instead, he slapped Xu Qingcheng on the back.

Xu Qingcheng straightened up, her eyes brimming with tears, and looked at the person who had suddenly appeared before her. She wiped away her tears, her voice still choked with sobs, "Grandma?"

The old lady patted her back and sighed softly, "Don't bend over carelessly, or you won't be able to straighten up again."

The old lady's words brought tears to Xu Qingcheng's eyes. She was willing to bend over countless times for Xu Yuan.

"Why are you crying? Are your tears worthless?" Jiang Wenyu scolded with a stern face.

Xu Qingcheng wanted to tell him not to cry, but she couldn't control herself.

"Wipe your tears first, you don't look good crying." Zhong Wanxiu handed her a tissue and patted her hand. "Don't rush."

Pang Shenghua had never met Jiang Wenyu before, so she turned to Zhong Wanxiu and asked, "Wanxiu, who is this?"

Zhong Wanxiu quickly introduced, "Shenghua, this is my mother-in-law. She came along when she heard I was coming."

Upon hearing that she was an elder, Pang Shenghua quickly greeted her, "Auntie."

The old lady nodded. "There are too many people here. Let's not be laughed at. Let's find a place to talk for a few minutes."

"Come to my office," Pang Shenghua said hastily.

The old lady nodded.

Xu Qingcheng was still clueless and didn't know whether she should follow. Zhong Wanxiu tugged at her arm, "What are you standing there for? Let's go."

Xu Qingcheng hurriedly followed, "Auntie, I..."

"We'll talk about it later."

Zhong Wanxiu stepped forward first to help the old lady, and Xu Qingcheng followed behind them.

Upon entering Pang Shenghua's office, she quickly went to pour water for the old lady, saying, "Auntie, I didn't know you were coming. Otherwise, I should have come out to greet you."

"I just happened to hear Wanxiu mention it, so I came along. Please don't think this old lady is bothering me."

"How could that be?" Pang Shenghua said with a smile.

"I came here for one thing," Jiang Wenyu said bluntly. "I still need to trouble you with Xu Yuan's surgery."

The old lady has already lowered her stance enough. Given the Fu family's circumstances, at their age, there are very few things that Jiang Wenyu would need to do.

But ultimately, it's the doctor who performs the surgery; where and how the knife is placed is entirely up to the doctor.

Jiang Wenyu was naturally still polite.

When the old lady mentioned wishing, Xu Qingcheng was stunned. Then she realized that Aunt Zhong must have told her.

Regardless, Xu Qingcheng was filled with gratitude; she had truly been on the verge of a breakdown. If Dr. Pang had simply refused to perform the surgery, she didn't know what she would have done.

Pang Shenghua was stunned, not expecting the old lady to bring up this matter. She looked at Zhong Wanxiu.

Zhong Wanxiu nodded to her, "Shenghua, for the sake of the old lady and me, you still have to take on this surgery."

Pang Shenghua was a little confused, but since the old lady had spoken, she had to give her face, otherwise Wanxiu would be in a difficult position. However, "You know, this matter has caused quite a stir in the hospital. Everyone is saying that I stopped seeing patients and then started again... This has caused such a commotion. The video is right there, right? You have to give us an opinion."

"What kind of attitude?" the old woman asked sternly. "An apology?"

The old lady gave him a look, and Pang Shenghua fell silent.

Fearing the situation would escalate, Xu Qingcheng quickly spoke up, "Dr. Pang, if you can help Yuanyuan with the surgery, I..."

"What?!" Jiang Wenyu cut off Xu Qingcheng's remaining words with an unfriendly tone.

"One video doesn't prove anything." Jiang Wenyu looked at Pang Shenghua. "On the way, I saw the video you sent to Wanxiu. Ask Wen Fei what her conditions are later."

"Auntie, Wen Fei really didn't mention any conditions, she even forbade her colleagues from calling the police. Wanxiu knows Wen Fei well, she knows her character, but you..." Pang Shenghua was puzzled. The old lady didn't ask any questions, she just protected her to the end. What was going on?!

Zhong Wanxiu knew Pang Shenghua's temperament all too well, but the old lady was also stubborn. She was used to giving orders all her life, and she didn't want anyone to disobey her once she said something.

"Mom, let's talk to Shenghua clearly. We need to deal with the child's matter as soon as possible." Zhong Wanxiu looked at Jiang Wenyu.

Jiang Wenyu nodded, and only then did Zhong Wanxiu dare to speak, "Shenghua, Xu Yuan is my granddaughter and the old lady's great-granddaughter. You have to help me this time no matter what."

Pang Shenghua was stunned when Zhong Wanxiu said this. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but then swallowed it all back.

surprise.

But it didn't seem too surprising.

That child... is a carbon copy of Xu Qingcheng, but she doesn't say it, and Pang Shenghua is unwilling to pry into other people's privacy.

Let alone an outsider being surprised, even Zhong Wanxiu froze when the old lady mentioned it. She had her doubts, but ultimately she still felt it was unlikely.

The two of them had such a fierce argument back then that Jingting, a grown man, even had tears in his eyes when he heard that she had aborted her child.

Even though Zhong Wanxiu had her suspicions, she didn't dare to think that way.

Pang Shenghua finally relented, "The surgery went according to plan, and I'm fine. However, Wanxiu, the hospital isn't my own place, and this matter could have serious repercussions, so we need to handle it carefully."

The old lady frowned, turned to Xu Qingcheng and asked, "Girl, let me ask you, why did you hit Wen Fei?"

Xu Qingcheng sat next to her, her mind completely blank.

Make a wish...

She was nervous, overwhelmed by a flood of emotions, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

"Tell me the truth, I don't believe what they're saying about the risks of surgery. You've taken Xuyuan to so many hospitals; it's not like we only found out about the risks today."

The information the old man had someone look up was laid out clearly. The old woman had lived most of her life, and she saw things more clearly than others.

Let bygones be bygones, discarding all the trivial details and ignoring the rights and wrongs involved. Xu Qingcheng's prenatal checkup records are meticulously documented there. If she didn't have some ulterior motive, why would she risk her life to have a child with a dead man?!

Jiang Wenyu truly felt sorry for this girl. Regardless of whether there was evidence or not, she would believe Xu Qingcheng even if she made up a lie.

Just considering the fact that Xu Yuan is Zhong Wanxiu's granddaughter, Pang Shenghua would still have to perform the surgery no matter what. Her desire for careful handling wasn't out of personal motives, but because the hospital also took this matter very seriously. It wasn't about how it had to be handled; just expressing an attitude, even an apology, would be enough to settle things peacefully. She would also have Wen Fei make a statement later, finding some excuse to say it wasn't a medical dispute, in short, to make a big deal out of a small one and a small one disappear.

But the old lady clearly didn't think that way; her question was obviously meant to lead.

It's practically saying, "Girl, say whatever you want. I don't believe what they say, I only believe what you say. As long as you say it, no matter how far-fetched the reasoning is, I'll believe it."

Pang Shenghua had a headache. She looked at Zhong Wanxiu as if asking what was wrong.

Zhong Wanxiu reassured her with a look, saying they would talk about it later.

"Grandma, Dr. Pang is willing to perform the surgery on Yuanyuan. I don't want to say anything more." As she spoke, her nose started to sting again.

This is the first time someone has asked Xu Qingcheng this question, not based on the video they saw, not on Wen Fei's one-sided account, and not on the testimony of medical staff.

Xu Qingcheng bit her lip, holding back her tears.

Wen Fei said those things to her, deliberately trying to provoke her.

Without concrete evidence, her words would be futile. Even if some people believed her, most would side with Wen Fei. Who would have thought that a nurse could so viciously curse a child?

"Let's have the surgery first, and we can talk about the other surgeries later," Jiang Wenyu concluded.

He added, "I will speak with Lu Zhenxiong and make sure this doesn't put Dr. Pang in a difficult position."

Lu Zhenxiong is Lu Jingzhou's grandfather. Huanan Hospital is a private hospital founded by the Lu family, and it is currently in charge of Lu Zhenxiong's second son.

Upon hearing this, Pang Shenghua thought, "Alright, since even the old master of the Lu family has been brought up, I won't say anything more."

Jiang Wenyu stood up and stared at Xu Qingcheng standing next to her, only looking at her.

The old lady's gaze was sharp, making Xu Qingcheng almost unable to lift her head, like a child who had made a mistake, obediently standing there waiting to be scolded.

Jiang Wenyu sighed inwardly, feeling both angry and sorry for him; he had kept it a secret very well.

Finally, the old lady instructed Dr. Pang, "We don't want outsiders to know about the Fu family's affairs for the time being. Please also keep the matter of making a wish a secret, Dr. Pang."

"That's natural."

……

After leaving Dr. Pang's office, Zhong Wanxiu refused to let Pang Shenghua see her off, telling her to go about her business.

Even so, Pang Shenghua still escorted him to the first floor.

As they exited the hospital's outpatient building, Zhong Wanxiu tried to help the old lady, but Jiang Wenyu refused.

She pointed at Xu Qingcheng, "Come here."

Xu Qingcheng quickly stepped forward, behaving very politely, and said, "Grandma."

"Where are the children?"

Knowing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Xu Qingcheng was quite certain that the old lady knew everything about Xu Yuan, but... she didn't understand how she could know for no reason.

They haven't had any contact in the past two years, and the Fu family has never interfered with her life.

"at home."

"Take me to see the children."

Before Xu Qingcheng could respond, her phone rang. She saw it was Song Chang calling, probably because Xie Yin had told her about what was happening here.

As soon as the call connected, Song Chang's loud voice boomed, "What's going on? The news about you hitting Wen Fei on short videos is going viral! Who the hell is so shameless as to expose your name?!"

Song Chang had no idea what was going on with Xu Qingcheng; she only called after seeing the short video.

The news, labeled as a medical dispute, went viral. Song Chang initially treated it as news, but when she saw that someone had exposed Xu Qingcheng's name, she became furious.

Those in the media know best what it means to take things out of context. If this is continued, Qingcheng's work and life will be affected, not to mention Xu Yuan.

Some people are even tagging official media outlets demanding a statement; is this a sign that things are about to escalate?!

Song Chang didn't know the whole story, but she knew that things couldn't go on like this. She first called Song Xingzhi and pleaded with him to help her deal with it.

That's when they called.

Xu Qingcheng's forehead twitched violently. "How did it spread so quickly?"

"In the era of social media, the speed of information dissemination is incredibly fast. Don't worry, I've told the guy to handle this quickly, to deal with as much as possible, and not to make a big fuss. And what's going on here? Didn't you know to avoid the cameras when you hit someone?!" Song Chang was really anxious. "If you get someone to dig up information about Xu Yuan, you'll regret it."

Xu Qingcheng thought to herself, even if I don't expose it, some people already know.

"Don't show your face these next few days if you can avoid it. If the media catches you, they'll be furious. Don't look at anything online either. Tell Yin-ge to prepare X for being attacked too," Song Chang instructed her. "I think this was intentional, even exposing your name. That video doesn't look like it was just taken casually; it must have been recorded from surveillance footage… Seriously, how did you end up fighting with Wen Fei? My brother said that day that she and Fu Jingting weren't engaged at all, it's all fake. Did she say something to you? How could you fight alone? You should at least have called me!"

Song Chang was muttering to herself and couldn't put her phone down. Zhong Wanxiu and Jiang Wenyu were still waiting beside her, so Xu Qingcheng had to interrupt her first, "Changchang, I have something to do, I can't talk to you now."

Before Xu Qingcheng could even hang up the phone, Zhong Wanxiu received a call from Pang Shenghua, who said that the fight had gone viral online and the hospital was handling the situation urgently.

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Wanxiu told Jiang Wenyu that the old lady's face had fallen. "Call that kid Jingting and tell him to handle it. Make sure this matter is handled cleanly and not a single word gets out."

Fu Jingting knew nothing about what was going on. First, he received a call from Song Xingzhi, and before he could hang up, his mother called again and gave him a thorough scolding, telling him to clean up the matter of Xu Qingcheng and Wen Fei fighting on the internet completely, without leaving any trace.

Xu Qingcheng and Wen Fei got into a fight?

Fu Jingting found it unbelievable, but he still quickly had people contact major media outlets to remove the video, and at the same time temporarily blocked searches for terms related to "Xu Qingcheng" from search engines.

The man stared at the video of Xu Qingcheng slapping Wen Fei across the face. He subconsciously turned to the side and touched his left cheek.

Xu Qingcheng is quite skilled at hitting people.

The Fu family's public relations efforts were very swift.

When Xu Qingcheng finished talking to Song Chang and went to the parking area with the two elders, almost all the videos on the internet had been taken down.

Xie Yin saw Xu Qingcheng and rushed over, "How is it? You didn't answer my calls, so I waited for you here."

After speaking, he noticed the two ladies beside her and politely greeted them.

Xie Yin had met Zhong Wanxiu once, but he didn't recognize the other one.

Xu Qingcheng didn't know how to introduce him, so she just pulled him aside and said, "Brother Yin, I have something to do. Thank you for today. You can go back first, and I'll talk to you later."

Xie Yin looked behind her. "Who's that? Why are your eyes red? Did something happen to you?"

"No. There's no time to explain now. You should go back first."

Xie Yin nodded. "Alright, feel free to contact me if you need anything."

Jiang Wenyu looked Xie Yin up and down, then got into the car and frowned as she asked Zhong Wanxiu, "Did that girl find someone?"

"She said he was her boss, her senior brother..." Zhong Wanxiu also found it hard to say what their relationship was. Although Xu Qingcheng said he wasn't her boyfriend, this was the man who stayed by her side when things went wrong.

The old lady snorted, "It's good that you found him. I think this young man is quite good."
