Soon, Xia Xiaoqiu brought Xia Chengye and Su Hui over.
"Weiliang! Weiliang, how are you?"
"Daughter, daughter, are you injured? You scared your mother to death..."
Su Hui's voice was choked with sobs, and Xia Chengye's eyes were red with anxiety.
"Dad, Mom, I'm fine, just a few superficial wounds."
Seeing the wound on her arm, although it was a superficial wound that had been disinfected and left open, her fair skin made the wound look particularly frightening.
Xia Chengye exclaimed, "You call this fine?"
Su Hui's tears instantly fell, "How could you be hurt like this? Who could be so heartless?"
"Weiliang! Don't be afraid, Dad will get justice for you! Anyone who dares to hurt my daughter, I'll cripple him!"
The two of them were focused entirely on Xia Weiliang, completely oblivious to the other people in the hospital room. The most awkward person there was Xia Yiran, as this was the first time she had seen the Xia couple since being kicked out of the Xia family.
Bao Fang and Liu Yaozong were too ashamed to lift their heads. Liu Wan Quan was lying in bed, pulling the covers up to his head, pretending not to see or hear anything.
"Dad, Xiao Yi will handle this matter, so please don't get involved."
Upon hearing that it was Xiao Yi, Xia Chengye did not object, as the Xiao family's influence was considerable, and things would certainly be more efficient. However, if it were someone else, Xia Chengye would have certainly taken matters into his own hands. After all, it was his daughter, and he would be the one to vent this anger!
"Dad, Mom, I asked Xiaoqiu to bring you here because there's something I need to confirm with you."
She turned her head and looked directly at Xia Yiran, "Today, someone slandered me, saying I had malicious intentions and deliberately used the 'victim' persona to gain attention. I've been thinking, since my kindness has been misinterpreted, then I shouldn't be kind anymore."
Xia Chengye blinked in surprise, and Su Hui also started, then quickly reminded, "Weiliang, no swearing!"
Xia Weiliang chuckled twice, "I'll be careful next time!"
Turning around, she said to Xia Yiran, "Originally, I didn't intend to waste my time on you. Your boss and agent have both pleaded with me not to ruin your career."
Xia Weiliang curled her lips mockingly, "It wasn't me who ruined your career, it was you yourself."
"Alright."
Xia Chengye suddenly spoke up, "Actually, I had already prepared the lawsuit materials and preserved the evidence. I was just waiting for your word." Su Dan Novel Network
Su Hui was also very surprised, "You..."
Xia Chengye then cast his gaze towards Xia Yiran, then at Bao Fang and Liu Wan Quan, and slowly said, "Human nature is insatiable."
Therefore, he had long foreseen that this family would not cease their trouble so quickly.
It was just that Xia Weiliang had publicly stated on the program that she would not pursue their responsibility, and Xia Chengye respected her decision.
Now, it seemed his decision back then was the right one.
Bao Fang lowered her head, her eyes red. Her emotions were much more stable at this moment, and she said softly, "I said before that I would accept whatever you decide to do."
"Yes!" Liu Yaozong also said, "Me too! I'll bear any cost! Then I can live with my head held high!"
Seeing her son's progress, Bao Fang was truly gratified.
Looking at these two, Su Hui felt a pang of sympathy, but she said nothing at the moment, waiting for Weiliang's decision.
Xia Weiliang knew what she was doing. Even if she were to pursue responsibility, it would be Liu Wan Quan. As for Xia Yiran, the kidnapping incident had just occurred, and she had rushed to the hospital immediately. Who knew if she had a role to play in this?
If she did, then she would settle the score with her as well!
Xia Yiran's expression was very unpleasant. She suddenly sneered, "So, you're all ganging up to bully us? You want to hold us accountable? Alright, let's talk about it! Mr. Xia, Mrs. Xia, when you found out that Xia Weiliang wasn't your daughter, what did you do? You unceremoniously kicked her out of the Xia family! You also cut off all her financial support, turning her from a carefree young lady into someone who fell from heaven to hell! Compared to me, you didn't seem much more affectionate!"
Her words left the Xia couple speechless, and Su Hui felt an overwhelming sense of guilt, lowering her head and quietly wiping away tears.
"I'm sorry... Weiliang, I'm sorry..."
Xia Weiliang was involuntarily drawn back to that memory. Xia Yiran had used the words "heaven to hell" accurately.
Hearing Su Hui's continuous apologies, Xia Weiliang quickly said, "Mom, I enjoyed so many years of your love and grew up happily, all thanks to you! So, don't listen to her, she just wants to stir up more trouble and add fuel to the fire!"
Xia Yiran let out a light chuckle, "Everyone knows the truth. Now that you're famous and Xiao Yi is protecting you, they've eagerly come to recognize you as their daughter! If you were struggling, they wouldn't bother acknowledging you at all! So, Xia Weiliang, don't be foolish!"
Xia Xiaoqiu, who had been listening, had remained silent but was filled with anger!
She both resented Su Hui's instigation and felt she wasn't wrong. Uncle and Aunt at that time indeed hadn't treated Xia Weiliang as family. After all, their "biological daughter" had returned, so why would they pay attention to their adopted daughter?
They even publicly supported Xia Yiran when she targeted Xia Weiliang!
How could this not leave Xia Weiliang disheartened?
But no matter how right Xia Yiran was, she couldn't fall into her trap!
So, Xia Xiaoqiu couldn't help but say, "What you're saying is distorting the facts! How my Uncle and Aunt treated Cousin is their business, but can that be compared to your family repeatedly slandering Cousin? In the end, weren't they deceived by you? They even dared to tamper with the genetic testing report. What a detailed and thorough plan!"
Her words jolted Xia Chengye. His expression turned serious, "That's right! We wronged Weiliang, and we will compensate her. But your family's fraud is an undeniable fact!"
"Who defrauded whom?!" Liu Wan Quan suddenly threw off the covers and sat up, "Don't you dare spew slander! Don't think we'll be afraid just because you're rich. I believe in the power of society, I believe in the power of the masses!"
Xia Weiliang rolled her eyes. With such loud slogans, had he consulted society or the masses?
"Dad!!" Liu Yaozong felt utterly embarrassed, "Can you stop being so muddled and useless? Do I have to say it out loud for you to understand? You hurt Sister Weiliang like this, and you're still, still looking for society? Is society my grandfather? Or are the masses my grandmother? They'd be lucky if they don't throw rotten eggs at you. Can you think before you speak?"
"You—you unfilial son! You're not helping your father, you're colluding with outsiders to bully me? Did I raise you just for you to anger me to death?!" Liu Wan Quan was truly angered.
Liu Yaozong waved his hand, "You're welcome. Seeing you so lively and energetic, I know I don't have the ability to anger you to death!"
