After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1133 Confrontation

“I originally planned to bring a gift, but then again, I don’t think you lack anything here. I’m just here to take a look at Yang Xin. If you insist that I must bring a fruit basket to enter this ward, then I’ll ask my friends to send over two baskets now. As long as it makes you happy,” Xu Lan said with a cold smile.

Looking at Xu Lan’s expression, she did not look like she was talking about giving a fruit basket at all. It sounded more like she was talking about getting prayer items delivered! If she also asked a couple of funeral musicians to come by, it would be like giving Yang Xin a sendoff! The next step would be to hold the funeral procession!

“Look at you, that’s not what we meant! Chief Xu, you’re thinking too much,” Bian Ding said.

“This child looks quite well to me. I supposed she has almost fully recovered?” Xu Lan walked to the foot of the bed and picked up the doctor’s notes. It clearly stated that the patient had an ankle sprain, slightly ligament strains and soft tissue contusions.

Even though these phrases made her condition sound quite serious, in layman’s terms, it meant that Yang Xin had sprained her ankle. It was nothing serious at all and she did not even need to be confined to the bed in the hospital. The Bian family’s uncle and nephew duo had asked Xu Lan to come over purely because they wanted to demand a sum of money from her for the medical fees.

“Still far from it! The doctor says that if the injury is not treated well, her foot might not heal properly and she won’t be able to dance anymore,” Bian Ding said with a tinge of regret. As he spoke, he even wiped away his tears and put on a hypocritical act for Xu Lan!

“Alright, I’ve already seen what I need to see. Yang Xin is unable to go on stage in her condition. I’m afraid that Yang Xin will have to miss this performance. I’ll go back and tell the rest in the troupe to practice well so that we don’t delay the progress of the performance.” After saying that, Xu Lan prepared to leave.

Bian Zhuo hurriedly blocked Xu Lan’s path and said fiercely, “You want to leave? No way! You must get Xia He to come and apologize to my wife! Otherwise, don’t even think about walking out of this door! You also have to compensate our family. Do you think that the medical, hospitalization and nutrition fees for the past few days don’t cost money!”

“I wonder what mistake my daughter has made to have to come and apologize personally? You can go and ask for money from whoever caused this to happen,” Xu Lan asked evenly, in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing.

“Xia He injured my wife. You have to apologize and compensate us,” Bian Zhuo said stubbornly with his arms crossed.

Xu Lan pointed at Yang Xin, who was on the bed, and said, “You were the one who attacked my daughter first and now you want my daughter to apologize to you. There’s no such logic. Besides, Yang Xin’s injury is a sprain, not wounds from a beating. There’s no way I’m going to let you push the blame on my family!”

“So many people saw your daughter pressing my wife to the ground and yet you still want to quibble?” Bian Zhuo said.

“Then surely there must be people who saw that Yang Xin hit Xia He first. We can’t just listen to your one-sided argument,” Xu Lan said.

“Don’t spout nonsense here! Zhou Ling already said that Xia He was the provocateur!” Bian Zhuo said.

Xu Lan looked at Yang Xin, who had been cowering on the bed and not daring to make a sound. Then she looked at the arrogant Bian Zhuo and then at Bian Ding, who was watching the show at the side. She turned around and sat on the sofa opposite Yang Xin.

“You know very well whether everything you’re saying is true.” Xu Lan looked at Bian Ding and said, “Regarding the extra money you paid to my daughter, I’ve already repaid it to the troupe out of my own pocket. Don’t think that I don’t know about those sneaky things that you have done.”

“You’re mistaken. I just feel that since we’re friends, I should take good care of Xia He,” Bian Ding said guiltily.

It was Yang Xin who asked him to pay Xia He a full month’s salary. Her goal was to make it difficult for Xia He to defend herself. She wanted to get Xia He expelled from the military art troupe. As long as Xia He had such a stain on her reputation, she would never be able to succeed in anything for the rest of her life.

None of them expected Xu Lan to see through this plan. If the plan had succeeded, not only would Xia He be affected, but the entire Xia family as well. At that time, the Bian family would be able to go to the He family to claim credit.

“My daughter’s behavior is always aboveboard and she doesn’t need anyone to take special care of her. You know very well how you managed to become the troupe leader. I’m not considered very old yet. I can still stay active in the troupe for another five to six years,” Xu Lan said politely.

“Aye, aye… I understand…” Bian Ding said fearfully.

Bian Zhuo spat at Bian Ding. What a timid thing!This person was a lousy relative to have. It was so embarrassing that he surrendered after just a few words from someone else!
