Chapter 1555 - 1555 The Best Friend Is the Mistress

1555 The Best Friend Is the Mistress
Zhao Ni said indignantly, “Then I won’t go back! Even if I have to become a beggar, I won’t return to your house! You can give up that thought!”

Qian Wang grabbed Zhao Ni by the hair and slammed her onto the floor. The wounds, which had just healed, split open again and Zhao Ni yelled so loudly from the pain that she almost lost her voice. When the guards at the door heard the noise, they immediately rushed into the room to stop Qian Wang.

When Qiao Mei and Qian’e heard the commotion, they immediately rushed over. Even though they took all precautions, they still did not manage to cover all the scenarios. It was nobody’s fault though. Qian Wang was more familiar with this hospital than any of them.

“You bunch of animals! You all framed me and set me up! I won’t let you off! Just you wait!” Qian Wang kept cursing even as he was dragged away by two guard team members.

Zhao Ni fell unconscious and her wounds bled profusely. The department chief hurriedly sent Zhao Ni to the operating theater for emergency treatment. All the wounds on her body needed to be stitched up again. It took more than an hour before she was pushed out of the operating theater safely.

“Xiao’e, you’re here too,” the chief said.

“Uncle Sun, how’s my mother?” Qian’e asked agitatedly.

“Xiao’e, calm down first. Your mother is out of danger for now, but her injuries are really quite serious. The prolonged fever has caused some inflammation in her lungs, but these are minor issues. As long as she is well taken care of, she will definitely be able to recover,” Chief Sun said.

“Thank you! Thank you! Uncle Sun, can you please save my mother? Please…” Qian’e said helplessly.

Chief Sun sighed. He had watched Qian’e grow up and always thought that Qian’e had a tough life, but he did not expect Zhao Ni to be in such dire straits all this while. Both mother and daughter had such tough lives!

“Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to treat her. You have to take good care of yourself too.” With that, Chief Sun went to do his rounds in the other wards.

Yao Nian’s investigation had also yielded results. For many years, Qian Wang’s two checkup slots for family members were given to Huang Meng and another woman. They always turned up to do the checkups every year, with all the forms filled up and filed away. It was Qian Wang’s signature on all the forms.

“Are you sure you didn’t miss out on anything? Is that all?” Qiao Mei asked cautiously.

“You’re questioning my capability? Why would I lie to you? What’s the point of lying to you? If I do that, I won’t get paid! If there’s even one document missing, you can sack me, how about that?” Yao Nian said resignedly.

Qiao Mei handed the documents over to Qian’e. There were also photos of Huang Meng and that woman in the stack. Qian’e took a closer look at the person in the photos and thought that she looked very familiar.

“This… this is my mother’s best friend!” Qian’e said in shock.

“What? Best friend?” Qiao Mei found it hard to believe. She did not expect to witness a television drama plot come to life. So it was true that art was inspired by real life.

The name of the woman in the photos was Ke Chu. She had been Zhao Ni’s good friend since elementary school. Ke Chu was very outstanding and had studied in university overseas. She remained single ever since she returned after graduation. When she came back, Zhao Ni had just gotten pregnant with Qian’e.

Zhao Ni went to university in the capital and married Qian Wang once she graduated. She never had a job and did not know anything about the dangers of society. The only thing she cared about was to take good care of the small family she had with Qian Wang. However, it was very likely that Qian Wang had already started lying to Zhao Ni from her university days.

Zhao Ni had even advised Ke Chu to marry a man like Qian Wang and even listed out his strengths and merits in detail. She could never have imagined that the affair started right after Qian’e was born.

Qian’e always thought that because Ke Chu had returned from overseas, she was more avant-garde and so she did not find anyone suitable after returning home. Looking at the situation now, perhaps Ke Chu had planned this all along.

Qian’e and Zhao Ni had not seen Ke Chu for so many years. They only knew that Ke Chu had a house in the capital, but they did not know if she actually lived in the capital.

“Let’s go and confront her!” Qian’e said angrily.

“These are just a few forms and medical reports. You can’t prove anything with these. Isn’t it a very common practice for hospital staff to give up their slots to other people? This doesn’t prove that Qian Wang had an affair. You need to have stronger evidence,” Qiao Mei said as she looked at Qian’e seriously.
