Chapter 166 Visitors from the Zhou family
Chapter 166 Visitors from the Zhou family
"Xiaoyue, how are you feeling today? Are you feeling any better?" Even though he knew he wouldn't get any answer, he would ask this question with great anticipation every time he came to visit, as if hoping that a miracle would happen in the next second.
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard, and the door to the ward, which was originally closed, was violently pushed open in an extremely rough manner!
Immediately afterwards, a group of bodyguards dressed in black suits with cold faces surged into the room like a tide. They escorted several people with extraordinary demeanor and obviously distinguished status as they filed in.
The one walking at the front was Boss Zhou. His narrow eyes, like cold stars, swept coldly over everyone in the room, finally fixing his gaze on Lin Yue, who was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face.
"Hmph, this must be the fourth brother's illegitimate daughter who can't be seen in public, right?" Boss Zhou's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile, his tone full of disdain and mockery.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mu, who had been guarding the bedside, instantly flew into a rage. He stepped forward and blocked the bed, his eyes fixed on the uninvited guests with vigilance and hostility.
Lin Mu caught sight of Zhou Laosi in the crowd—the man who had never fulfilled any responsibility in his life, and who was also his biological father. In an instant, Lin Mu's face turned extremely gloomy, as if it could drip water.
"You scoundrels aren't welcome here! Get out of here right now!" Lin Mu roared through gritted teeth, his voice deafening. Seeing this, Yun Xiling was extremely anxious and quickly reached out to grab Lin Mu's arm tightly.
However, faced with Lin Mu's angry rebuke, Boss Zhou merely sneered indifferently, then slowly said, "Kid, don't be so stubborn. You're just the fourth brother's illegitimate son, do you really think you're something special? Get out of our way, or don't blame us for being impolite! Today, we're taking her away no matter what."
"Dream on!" Lin Mu roared furiously, veins bulging on his forehead and eyes blazing with anger. At the same time, Yun Xiling beside him trembled slightly with nervousness, but she still held Lin Mu's hand firmly and refused to let go.
Li Yuetian stepped forward, taking a step ahead and righteously questioning, "What right do you have to bring people here so arrogantly and unreasonably?"
At this moment, Zhou Lao Er slowly stepped out from the crowd. He looked at Li Yuetian with a forced smile and replied slowly, "Little friend, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with you. To tell you the truth, we need her heart to save my nephew's life. As the saying goes, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda, so you'd better not meddle."
"This is utterly absurd! How can you treat life like dirt and trample on it so wantonly?" Yun Xiling roared furiously, her beautiful face flushed red with anger, and her eyes burning with rage.
Seeing that things were not going well, Li Yuetian quickly moved in front of Lin Yue and at the same time sent a quick message to Li Yuejiao on his phone.
At this moment, a man slowly walked out from the crowd; it was Zhou Laosan. He had a forced smile on his face, but the smile seemed incredibly hypocritical and disgusting.
He calmly pulled a check from his pocket, waved it lightly, and handed it to Lin Mu: "This is 100 million. Use it to treat your sister's illness or improve her life, as long as you give us your sister's heart. Anyway, she's in a vegetative state now, and it's still unknown whether she can wake up. Why not use her heart to save my precious son? That way, it can be considered her last contribution to this world."
"And listen carefully," Zhou Laosan continued, "as long as my son can successfully receive a heart transplant and survive, I can make sure the Zhou family acknowledges you and your sister as the young master and daughter of the Zhou family. From then on, you can enjoy wealth and luxury to the fullest."
Lin Mu revealed a mocking sneer. He suddenly reached out and snatched the check, tearing it into pieces without hesitation and throwing it forcefully into the air.
The scraps of paper fell like snowflakes, as if mocking Zhou Laosan's shameless behavior.
"You greedy people, do you really think money can buy everything in the world? How utterly ridiculous!" Lin Mu's voice was icy cold, like a biting wind in the dead of winter, making people shiver.
His deep eyes were now even colder than iron, staring intently at Zhou Laosan, as if trying to see through his body to the dirtiest corner of his heart.
Zhou Laosan looked shocked, clearly not expecting Lin Mu to treat him like this. His face instantly darkened: "You little brat, you dare to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! Hmph, don't forget, you're nothing but two illegitimate children who can't be brought into the light. Having the opportunity to donate a heart to my son is a blessing she's earned over many lifetimes! Don't be ungrateful!"
"Third Uncle! Why are you still arguing with this kid? Let's just get straight to the point and take him away!" A furious shout rang out, and it turned out to be Zhou Lao Si's two sons—Zhou Sha and Zhou Zhenglong—who, with faces full of hostility, led a group of fierce-looking bodyguards who rushed up like wolves and tigers.
The ward was small to begin with, and the space was quite cramped. Seeing this, Lin Mu and the others stepped forward without hesitation, standing in front of them to firmly protect the person behind them.
Although Lin Mu, Zhou Sha, and Zhou Zhenglong are half-brothers, it is clear that neither of them acknowledges this brother or Lin Yue as their sister.
"Try taking another step forward!" Li Yuetian shouted, his eyes wide as he stared intently at the approaching group.
"Oh ho! There's actually another meddlesome guy who doesn't know his own mortality? What, are you that little bastard's lapdog? Hahahaha..." Zhou Sha threw his head back and laughed wildly, the laughter echoing in the narrow ward, sounding particularly jarring.
"Shut up! How dare you insult her like that!" Li Yue was so angry that he trembled all over and his face turned ashen. He suddenly swung his fist and smashed it hard into Zhou Sha's arrogant face!
With a muffled thud, Li Yuetian's fist landed solidly on Zhou Sha's nose. Instantly, blood gushed from Zhou Sha's nostrils, splattering everywhere.
Caught off guard by the sudden and devastating blow, Zhou Sha screamed in agony, instinctively clutching his bleeding nose with both hands, while still cursing incessantly: "Damn it! How dare he lay a hand on me! What are you all standing there for? Beat him to a pulp! Beat him to death!"
The bodyguards were about to rush forward when a loud shout suddenly came from the door of the ward.
"stop!"
Hearing the noise, everyone turned to look and saw a graceful woman leading a group of people hurriedly approaching. This woman was none other than Li Yuejiao!
Li Yuejiao's gaze swept quickly over the Zhou family members present, and she sneered, "You all have quite the nerve, daring to act so presumptuously here!"
When Zhou Zhenglong saw that the newcomer was a beautiful woman, his eyes lit up, and a lecherous expression appeared on his face. He stared at Li Yuejiao up and down without any attempt to hide it, and began to tease her: "Oh ho, this beautiful lady, do you also want to meddle in other people's business? Hehe, but do you know who we are?"
Li Yuejiao merely snorted coldly at Zhou Zhenglong's frivolous words: "I am the director of this hospital. No matter who you are, if you dare to cause trouble in my hospital, you must pay the corresponding price!" When she said this, Li Yuejiao's face was solemn, making people dare not easily question her authority.
Old Zhou frowned, "Young lady, you can't just say things like that. Lying comes with consequences. Don't think we don't know, the hospital director is clearly an old man!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yuejiao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a disdainful sneer. She continued, "That's all in the past. Just one minute ago, I bought this hospital! So from now on, I am the director of this hospital!"
