Sweet Beauty

They stood at the entrance of the residential complex, quarreling with each other until their faces were bright red. Passersby and unrelated uncles and aunties in the residential complex all came to join in the fun.

Luo Yanyun's voice was not inferior to Jiang Huifang's. She was not like a woman who has lived for over seventy years. Having lived in the nursing home for a long time, there's a lot of grievances in Luo Yanyun's heart.

Seeing Luo Yanyun defending her granddaughter and complaining that Jiang Huifang had shamelessly stolen her son-in-law and forced her daughter to her death, everyone who was watching the commotion started to point their finger at Jiang Huifang.

Jiang Huifang immediately grabbed Luo Yanyun's arm, wanting to drag her to a quiet place where no one could hear them.

Unexpectedly, when Luo Yanyun saw that Jiang Huifang was forcefully pulling her, she suddenly let out an "Aiyo!" before slowly falling to the ground in front of everyone.

While she was falling, she didn't forget to hold Jiang Huifang's hand, saving herself from the pain of falling.

As soon as Luo Yanyun fell down, she burst into tears. "Aiyo, everyone come quickly and take a look. This shameless woman had already forced my daughter to death, but now she's trying to force an old woman like me to death! Everyone, look! She actually attacked me, aiyo ~ My weak arms and legs, it hurts so much."

Jiang Huifang was dumbfounded. She did not touch Luo Yanyun at all!

Luo Yanyun held onto her, crying out loud. "Aiyo. Everyone, look! She's trying to kill me. My body hurts so much. Please save me."

Jiang Huifang's face turned pale as she cried out for help. "Luo Yanyun, don't wrongly accuse me!"

The surrounding uncles and aunties pointed their fingers at Jiang Huifang's face and scolded her. 

"I saw you pushed her with my own eyes! How dare you not to admit it?"

"She is very old, yet you still wanted to torture her. What kind of woman are you?"

"That's right, she really is a snake and scorpion woman!"

"She is a shameless bastard!" Luo Yanyun immediately said to the surrounding uncles and aunties who had just arrived beside her. "She had stolen my daughter's husband and forced my daughter to death. Now she's here to kill me, an old woman. How could her heart be so vicious?!"

When a young man heard this, he immediately took out his cell phone and called the police.

Jiang Huifang was terrified. She just wanted to warn Luo Yanyun and scare her so that she would tell Liang Zixuan to resign. She didn't think Luo Yanyun was a two-faced woman.

By this time, everyone had already reported the incident to the police.

"Don't listen to her blabbering. I didn't force her daughter to die! I'm innocent!"

How could Luo Yanyun let her get away just like that? She was just an old grandmother; she was not afraid of losing face. Her hand held Jiang Huifang tightly as she refused to let her go.

"A murderer, someone, please save me! She wants to kill me in public. Everyone, come and see!"

After a while, an ambulance and a police car arrived at the same time.

The police officer walked over. When they saw this scene, their first thought was that Jiang Huifang had bullied Luo Yanyun.

"Old Woman, what did she do to you?"

Luo Yanyun looked at the police officer as if he was her savior. She let go of Jiang Huifang's hand and grabbed the police officer's hand, "Police Officer, this woman wants to kill me! I'm not lying to you. Just now, so many people saw her attack me. I'm really scared. Police officer, you must protect me!"

Jiang Huifang was so angry that she cried. She immediately explained to the police officer, "Don't listen to her. I did nothing--"

Before she could finish it, the surrounding uncles and aunties came out to testify for Luo Yanyun. "She did it. We all saw it!"

The police officer looked at Jiang Huifang with a frown. Jiang Huifang still wanted to explain, but the police said, "That's enough. If there's anything you want to say, say it at the police station. Follow me to the police station now."

She can't go to the police station.

How embarrassing that would be!

Jiang Huifang unknowingly wanted to run away but she was stopped by another police officer. "Didn't you say you're innocent? If you've been wrongly accused, then explain it clearly to us when we get back to the police station."

Jiang Huifang was forced into a police car by the police officer. Another police officer asked Luo Yanyun concernedly, "Old Woman, let this nurse check on your injury."

When Luo Yanyun heard this, her first thought was that going to the hospital meant she needed to spend money. Right now, her life with Liang Zixuan was difficult. She didn't have much money to go to the hospital. And just now, she was pretending to be in pain.

Seeing Luo Yanyun's troubled expression, the police officer smiled. "Don't worry. You don't have to pay for anything. It doesn't matter if you're all right or not, the woman who hit you will pay for all the cost."

When Luo Yanyun heard this, she immediately handed her hand to the nurse who was waiting for her. As the nurse helped her to the stretcher, she said to the nurse, "Check my whole body. Please make sure the cost is expensive. I feel sore all over my body."

The nurse: "..."

Liang Zixuan had just started working when she received a call from the police. When she heard that Luo Yanyun had been admitted to the hospital, she was so scared that she quickly put down her work and rushed to Xiang Zedong's office to request leave.

"Supervisor Xiang, my grandmother is in the hospital, I'm taking a day off."

Xiang Zedong's eyes shifted slightly from the computer screen and glanced at her. He scoffed, "You're going to take time off on the second day of work. Do you still want your job?"

Liang Zixuan was really anxious and even cried as she spoke. "Supervisor Xiang, my grandmother is old, and my mother is dead. She only has me. Can you do me a favor?"

Wasn't Liang Zixuan so against him yesterday?

Xiang Zedong was very pleased with himself, seeing how Liang Zixuan came to beg him so soon.

He tapped his finger on the desk and arrogantly said, "Liang Zixuan, I already told you yesterday that you won't leave unscathed if I don't give you a way out. When something happens, don't blame others for not giving you a way out. Plus, this is only your second day, and you already asked for leave, which is ridiculous. Qin Yu's album is rushed, so if you take leave today, you would also take leave tomorrow and the day after, delaying her album. At that time, all the blame would be pushed on me. Do you think that's appropriate?"

Liang Zixuan's eyes gradually turned red. She did not regret her actions yesterday. She was just sad because Xiang Zedong was actually getting personal revenge against her.

She controlled her temper and said kindly, "Supervisor Xiang, I promise I won't delay Qin Yu's album. Even if something happens, I won't let you take the blame. Can you help me?"

"Of course!" Xiang Zedong nodded.

Liang Zixuan was overjoyed. Just as she was about to say thank you, she heard Xiang Zedong say, "Even if you want a full holiday, you can take it. I won't be able to control you. But once you stepped out of the company, you can't ever come back again."

Liang Zixuan finally understood. No matter what she said, Xiang Zedong would never agree to her request.

He was purposely making things difficult for her.

Liang Zixuan forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart and laughed mockingly, "Alright! If you don't agree, then I'll talk to Director Zhu."
