Upon hearing this, Lin Wei’s face immediately darkened.
Just by looking at the fate of Lin He’s husband and mother-in-law, one could tell that Mei Shu was definitely not someone to offend lightly.
For Zhao Ping to want to bully her along with Kang Wei, what difference did it make from courting death?
Thinking about Zhao Ping’s mother suddenly bringing both of them to visit her at home and their earlier conversation, Lin Wei instantly understood that she had almost been used as a pawn!
They intentionally didn’t mention that the girl was Mei Shu, but she might inadvertently offend Mei Shu!
Seeing Lin Wei’s increasingly displeased expression, Zhao Ping quickly explained, “Grandma Lin, things aren’t as she said. It’s really a misunderstanding. I don’t even know her!”
Suppressing her anger, Lin Wei still chose to intercede for them to Mei Shu, “Miss Mei, 1 know today’s matter must have been their fault, but I still hope that you can forgive them based on our previous relationship. I can make them apologize to you immediately.”
At this moment, Zhao Ping’s mother no longer kept up appearances and quickly spoke in a conciliatory tone, “Yes, Miss Mei, it’s all the fault of these two naughty boys. They were thoughtless and accidentally offended you. Please don’t stoop to their level. Zhao Ping has always enjoyed teasing others since he was young, but he really didn’t mean to do anything like that to you.”
Only then did Mei Shu look at her directly and raised an eyebrow knowingly, “You’re Zhao Ping’s mother?”
Zhao Ping’s mother nodded, “Yes.”
Mei Shu raised her eyebrows in understanding, “No wonder. You’re so eager to defend your son. Even when he’s lost his mind and wants to force a strange girl into bed, you can still pass it off as teasing. No wonder he’s developed such behavior.”
No mother could tolerate someone speaking ill of her child in front of her.
And Zhao Ping’s mother was no exception.
But thinking about how Lin Wei was being so cautious around her, she endured this anger and said impatiently, saying, “Miss Mei, I didn’t mean to cover for him. If he really did something to you, I will do my best to compensate. But you’re fine standing here now, why hold on to this matter?”
Mei Shu smirked and glanced toward the direction of the bed behind her, “I’m fine, but the one not fine is over there.”
Zhao Ping’s mother firmly said, “Since that’s the case, let me just ask directly, what do you want in order to let this matter go?”
Mei Shu replied, “Originally, 1 didn’t want to make things difficult for him, but it’s interesting how you, as a mother, are. Let me remind you, your son is not a child anymore. He’s already an adult.”
“Today, he harassed a girl he doesn’t even know in front of so many people. Tomorrow, he might do that to a girl on the street to satisfy his desires. If you don’t want your son to really commit illegal acts in the future, it’s best to discipline him strictly now.”
After saying that, Mei Shu looked at Zhao Ping’s mother with a sarcastic smile, “Of course, saying this might be pointless. He really didn’t cause me any substantial harm today, but it doesn’t mean he won’t cause trouble for you in the future. Let’s wait and see.”
Mei Shu’s words were full of irony, which changed Zhao Ping’s mother’s expression several times.
“You don’t need to bother.” Zhao Ping’s mother was still trying to be tough, unwilling to scold Zhao Ping even a word.
Mei Shu glanced meaningfully at Lin Wei, “You don’t need to intercede for them. I’ll remember Li Zhen’s favor today and will repay it in the future.”
After that, she didn’t linger any longer, turned around, and left.
Lin Wei watched her figure thoughtfully until the ward door clicked shut before retracting her gaze.
Zhao Ping’s mother breathed a sigh of relief and disdainfully rolled her eyes, “My own son, I’ll discipline him myself. Who does that little girl think she is, sticking her nose in other people’s business? Really, she even came here to lecture me! Auntie Lin, do you think she’s being too meddlesome?”
Lin Wei didn’t say anything, avoiding her hand and walking straight to Li Zhen’s bedside, sitting down. Then she slowly said, “Alright, what Ah Zhen needs most now is rest. It’s not good for him to have too many people around him. You should take Zhao Ping and them back first.”
Zhao Ping’s mother quickly smiled and said, “Then we’ll leave first. If you need anything, feel free to call me anytime.”
“Mm.” Lin Wei endured her impatience and closed her eyes, nodding slightly.
Zhao Ping’s mother pushed her son again.
Only then did Zhao Ping react and said, “Grandma Lin, 1 really was wrong today. Please don’t be angry. 1 didn’t mean to let you take the fall. 1 really didn’t know who she was. If you’re really angry, you can scold me or hit me. I’ll accept it.”
“Enough!” Lin Wei’s voice couldn’t help but deepen a bit. “Let’s just leave it at that. I don’t want to bring it up again. You guys can go back.”
“Okay!” Zhao Ping agreed, looking relieved. He then looked at Li Zhen with a relaxed expression. “Ah Zhen, Kang Wei and I will come see you again tomorrow. Rest well today.”
“Okay, goodbye, Auntie Zhao,” Li Zhen politely bid them farewell..
