Chapter 395: Chaos
The person who had slapped Su Wan was not Sheng An’ning, but Xu Ziyao, the mother of Jiang Xuecheng?
This kind of mother-in-law was too unreasonable!
Xu Ziyao even said that teaching her daughter-in-law a lesson was none of her business!
Lin Fei’er’s bright face was instantly filled with a trace of shock. When she came back to her senses, Lin Fei’er sneered, and her bright black eyes were full of sarcasm.
“I’ve always heard that the mother of Jiang Xuecheng is an intellectual. I thought she was some great figure. The so-called intellectual is actually so unreasonable!”
When Su Wan saw Lin Fei’er standing up for her, her heart was bitter and touched. She held Lin Fei’er’s hand and wanted her to stop talking.
However, Lin Fei’er refused. When she saw Su Wan’s swollen right cheek, her eyes could not help but show some tenderness.
Lin Fei’er comforted Su Wan by caressing her palm. Then, she looked away and fixed her eyes on Xu Ziyao, wis.h.i.+ng that she could poke two holes in her body.
“Madam Xu, you are Su Wan’s mother-in-law, but can this be a reason for you to slap someone? Su Wan’s parents have never hit her, and her husband has never hit her. What right do you have?”
Xu Ziyao stared at the sharp-tongued Lin Fei’er and sneered coldly.
Xu Ziyao was a little regretful now. Why didn’t she oppose Jiang Xuecheng from marrying Su Wan back then? Jiang Xuecheng’s feelings for Su Wan were too deep. He would always give in to her and let her do whatever she wanted. It was easy for him to lose himself.
Wasn’t taking his life as a joke, foolishness?
If she had known that Su Wan would one day bring harm to Jiang Xuecheng, Xu Ziyao would rather let Jiang Xuecheng marry Sheng An’ning.
At least Sheng An’ning knew everything and it would be easier for her to control things. She would not let things develop to such a state!
Jiang Haoxuan stood at the side. Watching how Lin Fei’er protected Su Wan, he somehow had a new opinion of this woman.
Although Jiang Haoxuan did not agree with Xu Ziyao’s att.i.tude this time, Xu Ziyao was his mother after all. When he saw Lin Fei’er about to argue with Xu Ziyao, he could not sit back and ignore.
“Miss Lin, this is a family matter of the Jiang family. Don’t say too much.”
Lin Fei’er glared at Jiang Haoxuan coldly and pushed him away with her hand.
“That’s right. It’s true that you’re Wan’s relatives, but I’m also Wan’s friend. I can’t let you bully her like this. Your Jiang family is indeed powerful, but this is not a reason for you to be unreasonable!”
“Who’s being unreasonable? Say that again?”
It was rare for Xu Ziyao to throw a cold face at Su Wan. Sheng An’ning felt that her position in the Jiang family was at stake these days. It would be a waste not to show her loyalty with such a good opportunity.
Sheng An’ning walked angrily toward Lin Fei’er. Her beautiful eyes were like daggers dipped in poison, with a malicious glint in them.
Lin Fei’er clenched her fists tightly. She stared at Sheng An’ning and raised her chin arrogantly.
“I’ll say it again. You’re being unreasonable by bullying Wan like this.”
Sheng An’ning’s beautiful eyes were red with anger. She couldn’t help raising her hand, wanting to hit Lin Fei’er.
Su Wan was shocked and quickly stepped forward to grab Sheng An’ning’s hand.
Her eyes were as cold as ice. Her voice was neither high nor low, but it was like the frozen lake water in early spring. It was bone-chilling.
“This is a hospital ward. Xuecheng is still recuperating here. It’s not a place for you to fight!”
Sheng An’ning glanced at Su Wan in disdain. She glanced at the bright red palm print on Su Wan’s face and did not hide the disdain in her eyes at all.
Heh, why didn’t Su Wan resist when Xu Ziyao hit her?
Now Su Wan was lecturing her?
Jiang Haoxuan felt a little strange when he saw Sheng An’ning’s arrogant expression.
He pulled Sheng An’ning to the side and asked in a low voice, “An’ning, what’s wrong with you today? Why are you talking so harshly?”
Sheng An’ning was shocked when she heard that. Her beautiful eyes were filled with resentment. She raised her slender hand and pointed at the sleeping Jiang Xuecheng in the middle of the ward.
“Brother Xuecheng is in this state. Haoxuan, I’m very scared. I can’t control my emotions.”
Jiang Haoxuan sighed. He followed Sheng An’ning’s hand and examined Jiang Xuecheng. He couldn’t say anything else.
The ward suddenly fell into an awkward silence. Xu Ziyao didn’t say anything else. She just silently walked to Su Wan’s original chair and sat down.
She reached out and caressed Jiang Xuecheng’s face. Her beautiful eyes seemed to be shrouded in a layer of autumn morning mist, with faint tears.
“Xuecheng, don’t scare me. I’m old and I can’t bear to be scared…”
This son had caused Xu Ziyao a lot of trouble from the moment he was born. Until now, she hadn’t been able to stop worrying about him.
When Jiang Xuecheng was eight years old, he saw a meteor shower like this. He was seriously ill for half a month. At that time, the doctors said that Jiang Xuecheng couldn’t live anymore. Only heaven knew how Xu Ziyao wished she could die in her son’s place during that period of time.
This kind of illness was really too strange. Xu Ziyao and Jiang Wei had also looked up a lot of information, but after scouring the entire medical world, who could be like Jiang Xuecheng?
Later, after Jiang Xuecheng woke up, his body inexplicably recovered. Moreover, he became more and more robust. His five senses were even sharper than ordinary people, and his movements were also more vigorous.
However, under the shadow of the early years, Xu Ziyao still did not dare to relax on her care for Jiang Xuecheng. She had raised her eldest son until now with fear and trepidation, and she really felt that it was the blessing of the heaven that her son was still alive!
However, now, something similar had happened to Jiang Xuecheng again!
How could she not be afraid?
Su Wan stood at the side and saw Xu Ziyao’s mournful expression. Her heart was filled with sorrow.
Su Wan did not want Jiang Xuecheng to become like this. If Jiang Xuecheng had made things clear, she would not have brought him to see the meteor shower no matter what.
Just as Su Wan wanted to ask Xu Ziyao something, Lin Fei’er pulled Su Wan’s hand, indicating that she should ignore that crazy woman.
Lin Fei’er pulled Su Wan aside and opened the millet pumpkin porridge that she had bought earlier.
“Wan, you haven’t eaten anything. Eat some porridge to fill your stomach. Don’t tire yourself out, okay?”
As soon as the lid of the insulated box was opened, the fragrance of the millet pumpkin porridge gushed out. It filled the air and drove away the smell of disinfectant.
“Fei’er, I’ll leave it for now and eat it later.”
Su Wan gave a pale smile. From yesterday until now, she had no appet.i.te at all when she saw the state of Jiang Xuecheng.
“How can you not eat it? You mustn’t let someone’s anger harm your body…”
Hearing Lin Fei’er’s words, Sheng An’ning, who had been sitting next to Jiang Haoxuan, could no longer sit still.
She stood up in anger and walked up to Lin Fei’er angrily, giving her a pus.h.!.+
“Your name is Lin Fei’er, right? Whose daughter are you? Why are you so uneducated?”
“You…”
Sheng An’ning didn’t use much force, but Lin Fei’er suddenly felt a little dizzy.
Her eyes blurred, and the world spun around her. She fell straight to the ground…
