Li Fanxing ran her fingers through her hair in an elegant move and smiled. “It’s not that your father didn’t want to be a doctor, but he wasn’t fit for the job! He is — a murderer!”
An Xiaxia was furious. Was this woman ever going to stop?
“Li Fanxing, leave my family out of this!”
Li Fanxing rolled her eyes. “Don’t flatter yourself. Fine, I’ll tell you. Your dad was negligent during an operation. A patient died and the entire medical circle despised him for it! It then forced him into retirement!”
An Xiaxia swayed, unable to process what she had just heard.
How could that be possible…
However, her senses were telling her that Li Fanxing wasn’t lying…
Otherwise, why would Papa An stop being a doctor and open a coffee shop instead?
“The patient your father killed was my grandfather!” Li Fanxing’s face twisted. “Back then, we didn’t have enough evidence, but we’ve found all the necessary witnesses and physical evidence now. An Xiaxia, go home and tell your dad, he’s dead!”
An Xiaxia felt the hair stand up on her back and panic overtook her. “No… that’s impossible…”
“It’s alright if you don’t believe it, but you can’t run away from karma!” Li Fanxing said in an aggressive tone. Sensing Sheng Yize looking in their direction, she softened her tone and her face was as mesmerizing as a poppy flower blossoming in the dark night. “I’ll see you in court!”
After that, she trotted toward Yin Qinghan, her high heels clicking rhythmically on the ground.
Sheng Yize came over with a frown. “What did she say to you?”
An Xiaxia grabbed his arm with a pale face. “Sheng Yize, take me home! I want to go home!”
–
The An family.
As soon as the car came to a stop, An Xiaxia said goodbye to Sheng Yize and ran into the house.
Papa An had gone to the back and An Yibei was in his pajamas and drinking water in the living room. An Xiaxia walked in at that moment.
He froze when he saw An Xiaxia. He then snorted. “Who said you could come back?”
That tone couldn’t mask the concern in his voice.
An Xiaxia rushed to him in a flurry. “Brother, do you know what happened to dad?”
An Yibei frowned. clearly having no idea what she was talking about.
Something then dawned on An Xiaxia. She ran downstairs and opened the mailbox.
She found quite a few letters inside, one of which was from the court.
An Xiaxia opened it with shaking hands and her mind went blank.
A summons! The court had issued a summons! And it was for Papa An!
Sheng Yize hadn’t left yet. Seeing her reaction, he got out of the car. “What’s wrong?”
An Xiaxia didn’t want him to worry, so she shook her head. “It’s nothing… I’m going back upstairs.”
“Get some rest. I’ll check up on Jiayu in the hospital,” Sheng Yize said. “Call me if you need anything, ok?”
“Sure!” An Xiaxia gave him a bright smile. Sheng Yize rubbed her hair and left.
An Xiaxia went back upstairs with the letters. An Yibei was sipping water as he leaned back against the sofa. He asked grumpily, “What’s with all the fuss?”
“Brother… was dad accused of malpractice before?” An Xiaxia asked in a trembling voice.
An Yibei narrowed his eyes. “Who told you that?”
An Xiaxia said nothing, and only handed him the summons.
An Yibei’s expression turned bone-chillingly cold when he saw what it was. “Don’t worry. I’ll defend dad!”
“But…”
“No buts! Go to bed now!” An Yibei snapped. An Xiaxia cringed, looking aggrieved.
An Yibei rubbed his forehead. “I’ll tell you about it one day.”
