Chapter 184 You Slapped Me

    Chapter 184 You pped Me


    "Mrs. Qi, please don''t worry about it. Mr. Elian has explicitly ordered his care. This is an important


    patient for our hospital and I''ll definitely take good care of him, " The nurse gently smiled at Jean to turn


    down her offer to pay her well.


    "Thank you very much for all your trouble. I need to go back home and fetch some stuff. I promise I will


    switch duties with you as soon as I am back." An indebted Jean thanked the caregiver and began


    walking towards the entrance of the hospital.


    Just before she arrived at the entrance, Jean saw Winner. He seemed to be sneaking around as he


    was walking in hurried steps in her direction.


    Jean moaned to see him. After the exhaustion of the past 24 hours, she certainly didn''t want to be


    entangled with the Wens.


    Especially, not Winner! He was like a viper, full of hostility and ready to attack her any minute. And


    there was no stopping his bullying once he started it.


    In the sh of a second, Jean took cover behind a wide ornate pir. Once safe, she peered at him


    cautiously.


    Apparently, Winner didn''t see Jean around. Instead, he was on the look out for a familiar doctor or


    nurse. When he found himself among strange faces, he sighed with relief and doubled his speed. By


    the time he reached the corridor, he whistled and had a swagger in the way he walked.


    "Hey, Mister. This is a hospital. Please maintain decorum. The patients are resting." A senior nurse


    scolded Winner for his ungainly behaviour.


    This ruffled up Winner. But he remembered that he was in the hospital and didn''t want to draw attention

    to himself by causing a scene. He red hard at the nurse and spat out the words: "You old ugly hag,


    why don''t you go to hell?"


    Obviously, the nurse didn''t hear his talking back as she continued to devote herself into work.


    Jean stayed where she was until she saw Winner disappear from her sight. Seeing him at the hospital


    had got Jean confused.


    It was ate hour for Winner to show up at the hospital. There must be something wrong.


    ''Perhaps Henry was in this hospital?''


    Thinking on these lines, Jean approached the nurses'' station.


    "Excuse me? Does the young man who just went paste here frequently?" Jean politely smiled and


    asked the nurse.


    The woman across the desk lowered her sses and moved her pile of files aside to get a better view


    of the young woman who wore a dirty stained white shirt. After looking Jean from head to toe, she said,


    "Who are you?"


    "I''m his half-blood sister. To be specific, I''m here to ask if Henry Wen is here in this hospital." Jean


    replied without any haste. The smile on her face got bigger and she tried her best to be morepliant


    and pleasing.


    "Henry Wen?" The nurse suddenly realized something and gave Jean a despising look, "Yes. He has


    already been here for more than half a month. Speaking of that, are you really his daughter?"


    The hint of disdain in the nurse''s words was obvious. She just stared at Jean without batting an eyelid.


    Jean''s face flushed but she soonposed herself and answered with a smile, "I am just back from a


    business trip and reached the hospital in a hurry. Do you know how he... my dad is now?"


    "How do you think he is? He was half dead. He is alive now but still suffering." The nurse seemed to


    believe what Jean had said but she didn''t have any sympathy for the daughter of a man who was on


    his deathbed. She nonchntly picked up her files and got up to make her rounds of the wards.


    Half dead...


    Jean didn''t realize that Henry''s situation was this bad. She was stunned by the news and took a step


    back, still staring at the spot where the nurse was a minute ago.


    She had thought that it was another trick by the Wens to tell her that Henry was in the hospital. She


    had thought they made it up just to win her sympathy and then ask her to persuade Zed to give them


    thend.


    After all, they could stoop to any level and do all kinds of wicked deeds just to get thend.


    But now, when Jean saw Winner turn up at the hospital at such ate hour, she began to wonder


    whether things were really for the worse as she had been told. It was only after she asked the nurse


    that Jean reached the truth.


    Dad...


    Jean felt herself tangling in a knot of emotions. She flipped her hair and exhaled softly as she turned to


    walk in the direction Winner had taken a couple of minutes ago.


    Not knowing the ward and unable to ask the nurse who left in haste, Jean began searching ward by


    ward.


    Fortunately, there was a piece of ss on the door of each ward and she was able to take a peek


    inside to search for Henry.


    By the time she reached the fifth ward, she heard an excited and familiar voice a few paces ahead of


    her.


    "Winner, how can you ask me for money? Do you know what''s happening to our family right now? If


    you really have the guts, go and ask Jean for money. She married the billionaire Zed. As long as you


    are convincing, you can get as much money as you want out of her..."


    It was Shirley''s voice. She sounded riled up and seemed to be having a heated discussion with Winner.


    On a peaceful morning, her voice echoed exceptionally loud down the corridor.


    Jean paused to look for a ce to hide and slid in a nook under the shades. Her eyes followed the two


    figures in front of her.


    "Sis, I really need the money for an emergency. Can you please do me this favor? If I can''t give them


    the money immediately, I won''t live through tonight." Winner pleaded with an edginess in his voice.


    "Save it." Shirley snorted and put her hands on her hips. She looked at him in hatred and said, "You


    have used that excuse a hundred times. Aren''t you still alive and standing right here to piss me off in


    my face? If you really get caught by them, it will be great. At least, I won''t get angry because I will


    thankfully not see you ever again."


    Shirley was annoyed and left with no patience for Winner. She turned around to go inside the ward.


    "Shirley Wen, stop." A nervous Winner reached out his hand to grab Shirley by the arm.


    How could Shirley allow herself to be touched by his dirty hand? He mustn''t have had a decent bath in


    days. Shirley swerved back and flung her palm right on to Winner''s cheek. The p sounded hard and


    loud in the quiet hospital. A panting Shirley looked Winner square in the eye for daring to touch her.


    "You... you pped me?" Winner didn''t expect Shirley would p him all of a sudden. He was startled


    and froze in ce with his hand touching the spot where Shirley pped him a few seconds ago. He


    furrowed his brows in anger and silently red at Shirley.


    "So what? It''s a shame for the Wens to have such an ignorant and useless son like you." Shirley stared


    back at him as if he were a filthy cockroach. Her face was full of disdain.


    "Shirley, don''t think that I don''t know what your n is." On hearing what Shirley had just said, Winner


    couldn''t hold back himself any longer. He shouted at her, "The Wens are so unpeaceful all because of


    you. You made us miserable. When Jean was still in our family, you tried your best to bully her, set her


    up and make her sacrifice for our family.


    Now she''s gone. When you see that she married a sessful man like Zed, you get jealous and envy


    her deep in your heart. You have no one to bully now so you take it out on me, don''t you? Listen up. I


    am not Jean. I''m not that soft to be bullied by you. And I am the son of the Wens. You are just the


    unprofitable daughter. It won''t be long before you get out of our family too. What belongs to the Wens is


    all mine. There isn''t a penny left for you."


    Winner''s eyes flushed with rage. He shouted out loud with all his strength.


    "You''d better argue with meter about the inheritance of our family estate when you still have your life!


    Besides, don''t you know what''s happening in ourpany right now? Even if you take it over, it won''t


    be more than a mess." Shirley soon turned to go back and left Winner frozen in his ce.


    Winner was still wet behind the ears. On hearing what Shirley had just said about the Wen Group being


    in a sordid mess, he copsed on the ground with no strength left.


    Observing them from a distance, Jean couldn''t help but shake her head. She let out a sigh.


    It wasn''t hard to understand why Henry was so angry for getting admitted to the hospital. Shirley and


    Winner had already started to fight over the Wens'' property even before he was dead.


    Jean felt she had got to know enough for today. Her mind was abuzz and her eyes hurt with fatigue, so


    she headed for the entrance of the hospital.
