Chapter 938 - 953: No Way to Deny Responsibility
"Tong Ze..." Li Manman and Han Xi almost shouted in unison.The security guards who just rushed over pressed the girl to the ground and snatched the knife from her hand: "We’ve already called the police, you’d better behave."
Li Manman pressed on Tong Ze’s stabbed abdomen, blood continuously flowing out: "Xiao Xi, hurry up, hurry up... he’s bleeding."
"Send him to the operating room immediately." Han Xi shouted to the nurse beside him, then turned to Li Manman: "He’ll be okay, don’t worry."
Tong Ze’s face was already a bit pale, but he smiled faintly as he moved his lips: "With Xiao Xi here, I’ll be fine, don’t worry."
Li Manman nodded anxiously; if Tong Ze hadn’t blocked that stab for her, she might have been the one injured.
......
In the hallway outside the operating room, Li Manman sat on the bench, her hands covered in blood, feeling constantly uneasy, fearing that something would happen to Tong Ze.
The parents of that girl also arrived, and they looked at Li Manman and spoke apologetically: "We’re sorry, it’s our fault for not raising our daughter properly, we’re truly sorry."
Li Manman lifted her head, her tired voice carrying displeasure: "If anything happens to my friend, your daughter will have to pay the price."
Being inexplicably accused of stealing someone else’s boyfriend was one thing, but now the girl had actually stabbed Tong Ze; she was just too reckless.
The girl’s mother sat down next to Li Manman, crying: "I beg you, please don’t press charges against my daughter; she’s still young and doesn’t understand. If she goes to jail, her life will be over."
Li Manman suddenly let out a cold laugh; this couple hadn’t said a single word of concern for the patient, only pleaded for their daughter.
"You better hope nothing happens to my friend, otherwise I will definitely press charges against your daughter."
Li Manman’s voice, as calm as water, carried obvious impatience.
The girl’s father took a bank card out of his pocket and handed it to Li Manman: "Consider this card as a token of our goodwill. Please, on account of our daughter’s young age, don’t hold it against her. Could you speak to the police to have her released?"
Li Manman stood up from the bench, took the bank card in her blood-stained hand: "I’ll take the card. It’s your daughter who stabbed him, so it’s only right for you to cover the medical expenses and also..."
Li Manman’s lipstick-adorned lips curved into a cold smile resembling the desolate late autumn as she paused and continued: "I will definitely press charges against your daughter. Goodbye, I’m not seeing you out."
"Young lady, you can’t just take the money and pretend you don’t know us. My daughter can’t go to jail."
Good heavens, Li Manman suddenly felt this family was truly bizarre, with some abnormal way of thinking.
"This card is meant for my friend’s surgical fees, medical expenses, and future treatment costs. These are your responsibilities. Moreover, your daughter’s actions constitute intentional assault. Even hiring a lawyer won’t help, especially with so many witnesses and surveillance cameras in the hospital observing everything, you can’t escape this."
The girl’s mother suddenly sat on the ground crying, clapping her thighs incessantly, behaving no differently from a shrew on the street: "I can’t live, you’re trying to take my life! I only have this one daughter, if she goes to jail, I won’t live either."
Li Manman watched coldly, unmoved by her crying and chaos, growing more irritated the more the woman carried on.
