Qi Yunfan stepped forward and helped Lin Yueqin to her feet.

He looked at Ye Chuyi, frowning deeply, “Chuyi, how can you treat your mother like this? She disciplines you for your own good, doesn’t she? And I heard that Aunt Lin’s hand was also injured by you? Why did you do that?”

“My affairs are none of your business.”

Ye Chuyi glanced at him indifferently and then turned to Hen Peizhu, a hypothesis slowly forming in her mind, “Madam Qi seems to be quite ill. To be so sick and not stay in the hospital, what are you doing here?”

Even when ill, Hen Peizhu still looked down on Ye Chuyi with arrogance, “I am about to become in-laws with Lady Wen; my presence here is more justified than yours. Moreover, Lady Wen arranged a meeting for me today with the renowned Doctor Anxin. I am here for medical treatment. Shouldn’t I be here?”

With her suspicion confirmed, Ye Chuyi sneered, “So it was you.”

“What do you mean ‘So it was you’? Of course, it’s me.”

Hen Peizhu looked disdainfully at her, “I was invited by Lady Wen. How did you get here? Surely you didn’t overhear something and purposely come to meet Doctor Anxin, did you?”

“My son told me you’re working as a doctor at Dome? And you know Doctor Anxin? Don’t tell me you’re lying to my innocent and kind-hearted son? A servant’s daughter like you, a doctor?”

“Show me your medical license. Let’s see if you’re a doctor or just trash. That will tell us everything!”

Ye Chuyi replied coolly, “You’re not worthy to see it.”

“What did you say?! I’m not worthy to see? I bet you don’t have one at all!”

Lin Yueqin also chimed in, “Xiaoyi, when did you become a doctor? Why didn’t I know? You shouldn’t fabricate such things. It’s not good to lie to flatter yourself, claiming to be a doctor at Dome Hospital. Haven’t I always taught you not to lie, to be honest and kind? Why don’t you ever listen to me?”

Qi Yunfan was swayed as well, “Chuyi, did you really deceive me? You’re not actually a doctor at Dome Hospital? But that day, you were clearly wearing a white coat only a Dome doctor would wear!”

Hen Peizhu scoffed, “She must have stolen it! You know how strict and high the standards are for hiring at Dome; how could she possibly become a doctor there? She must be dreaming!”

Lin Yueqin was full of shame, “You see the mess she’s made. It’s all my fault for not raising her right. She’s full of lies, always has been since she was little. Madam Qi and Young Master Qi, in the future, don’t believe anything she says.”

Hen Peizhu glanced at her hand, “And your hand was injured by your daughter? To be so cruel to your own mother, she really is poisonous. I never noticed before; I thought she was just after power and wealth. I didn’t realize she would harm her own mother, such a heartless creature!”

“Ah, to tell you the truth, my daughter has completely gone astray. I can’t control her anymore. Now, all I can do is guard the villa’s gate for Madam, to keep Chuyi out and prevent her from harming Madam and Miss.”

Hen Peizhu looked at Ye Chuyi, “Your mother might be a mere servant, but she seems a hundred times stronger than you. Why are you still standing here? You’ve got some nerve, thinking of squatting here? I bet you’re still carrying a torch for my son, trying to ensnare him.”

When Qi Yunfan heard her say that, he felt inexplicably pleased, “Chuyi, did you come just to see me? However, today I’m here with my mother to see Doctor Anxin. I’m afraid I won’t be able to attend to you. You’d better leave now!”

Lin Yueqin eyed Ye Chuyi, barely able to hide the smugness in her eyes, “Did you hear that? Young Master Qi is also telling you to leave. He doesn’t like you. So, stop pestering him already.”

Ye Chuyi suddenly smiled faintly, “You all want me to leave?”

Hen Peizhu snorted, “Do you even need to ask? Can’t you understand Chinese? Stop making a spectacle of yourself; just go! You’re blocking the doorway. When Doctor Anxin arrives, he won’t be able to enter because of you!”
