“Of course I’m here to get diagnosed. Aren’t you a genius doctor?” Wei Ying’s presence was threatening and her tone was intimidating, to say the least.
“Wei Ying, do we have some sort of beef or misunderstanding between us?” Huo Mian took off her black frames and looked at the assertive young woman before her.
“What do you think?” Wei Ying glared at Huo Mian.
“You’re here to talk about Huo Yanyan, right?” Huo Mian guessed the reason for Wei Ying’s visit.
“So… don’t you have some sort of explanation for me?”
“Honestly, I do know Huo Yanyan personally, but that doesn’t mean I can invade her privacy. In this kidnapping case, she risked her life to protect my daughters and suffered beatings that broke her ribs. I have to help her. As for her relationship with your husband, I really have no idea what’s going on there.”
“So you’re protecting her then? You’re denying everything?”
“No, I don’t even know what I’m denying. Shouldn’t you ask your husband?” Huo Mian couldn’t understand why Wei Ying kept asking outsiders to explain her husband’s cheating ways or his wish for a divorce.
What kind of logic was that?
At the mention of her husband’s affair, Wei Ying grew even more emotional. “Mingxi wasn’t like this before. He was always so great to me and he always called Huo Yanyan clingy. It’s Huo Yanyan who has no shame, stepping into my marriage… My husband never responded to her advances. I don’t know why it turned out like this. After we got married, everything changed… He’s no longer invested in me, even skipping my birthdays, saying he’s busy… But he has the time to drink afternoon tea with that bitch Huo Yanyan?! How is she not at fault? Huo Mian, I don’t understand why you’re helping that bitch instead of me. Logically speaking, my brother and sister-in-law are good friends with you, so you shouldn’t be treating the Wei Family like this, right?”
Wei Ying seemed to have held some sort of grudge towards Huo Mian. Her voice was agitated and she couldn’t stop criticizing Huo Mian.
“I’m friends with your brother and your sister-in-law, that’s true… But that has nothing to do with this. I was originally not that close with Huo Yanyan. I only helped her out that one time because she was in trouble. This time, if it wasn’t for her help, I wouldn’t even have that much contact with her. I don’t care about your relationship with Huo Yanyan. As far as I’m concerned, she saved my daughter’s life and I’m very grateful for that. Still, I’m not going to invade her privacy.”
“Stop bullshitting me. Tell me where Huo Yanyan is right now!”
Wei Ying went to the First Hospital first thing in the morning, but Huo Yanyan was already released from the hospital.
She then looked for Huo Yanyan in her old residence but discovered that the latter had already relocated.
As far as Wei Ying was concerned, Huo Mian definitely knew where Huo Yanyan was, and hence, this early morning drama.
“She was released from the hospital. I have no idea where she went.”
“You’re lying! How could you not know? You definitely hid her somewhere. Someone even saw!”
“Yes, that’s true, but she wasn’t out of the hospital at the time. I was only helping her take care of her daughter. Also, I did make her living arrangements but she didn’t go. So, I really have no idea where she is. I also have no reason to lie to you. Instead of yelling at me, why don’t you ask Shen Mingxi?” Huo Mian was beginning to feel irritated.
“If I could ask him, do you think I’d be here asking you?” Wei Ying was livid.
“Then I have nothing for you. It’s none of my business. Please leave, I need to get back to my work.”
In the face of Wei Ying’s unreasonable rudeness, Huo Mian had no choice but to send her out.
