Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

Chapter 358 - Culpability

Chapter 358: Culpability

“She’s my third sister-in-law and has always been hostile to me. If I join the treatment team, it won’t be good for her. After all, she has a grudge against me and it won’t be good for her recovery,” Huo Xiaoran said calmly.

Li Zecheng and Li Ze’en were silent, but their expressions showed disappointment.

Huo Xiaoran patted Li Ze’en’s shoulder gently and said, “Don’t worry, Uncle is also a doctor. It’s his duty to save lives. He won’t use his position to take revenge. If I can help, I’ll be generous.”

Li Ze’en lowered her head and said very humbly, “Thank you, Uncle.” For some reason, she was especially cautious in front of Huo Xiaoran.

The doctor led them into the ward. Third Madam was almost like a mummy, her entire body fixed. She couldn’t move her neck, only her eyes moved slightly.

When she glanced at her children, tears streamed down her face.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Her brain is clear, and the prognosis s very optimistic.”

Li Ze’en cried.

“Mom, why were you so stupid? Why didn’t you wait for me to come back before doing such a stupid thing? Have you forgotten that I have connections to the underworld? I have hundreds of ways to make her life a living hell. There’s no need to jump off a building and ask for trouble.”

Third Madam’s mouth opened slightly, and she looked very excited. But she couldn’t say a word for a long time.

At this moment, Huo Xiaoran said to Li Zecheng and Li Ze’en, “Your mother has just woken up and can’t be too agitated. You guys go out first and call the doctor in.”

Li Zecheng and Li Ze’en walked out.

Soon the doctor arrived.

Huo Xiaoran instructed, “Find a way to make her speak.”

The doctor was stunned. “Then we can only inject the medicine.”

“Okay.”

Soon, the doctor injected Third Madam with medicine.

Huo Xiaoran slowly turned on the phone’s recording function and chose an angle to ask Third Madam.

“Third Sister-in-law, I suspect that you didn’t commit suicide by jumping off a building. If you really wanted to commit suicide, you wouldn’t have chosen to jump from the third floor but from a higher floor. Moreover, you wouldn’t have chosen to jump off a building in the hospital. After all, the hospital is the most timely place for help.”

Third Madam’s dark eyes were filled with surprise.

Seeing her reaction, Huo Xiaoran said, “Looks like I guessed correctly. However, Third Sister-in-law, if you don’t want to suffer for no reason, work hard to cooperate with me and identify the murderer. If I guess the right answer, blink. How about that?”

Third Madam blinked.

Huo Xiaoran paused and continued, “When I left the hospital yesterday, the first, second, and third branches of the Li family were all present. They were all waiting in front of the Master’s ward. Every one of them is suspected of pushing you.”

Third Madam blinked.

Huo Xiaoran’s heart instantly sank. Although this kind of internal strife was common in wealthy families, Huo Xiaoran felt ashamed for the Li family.

Huo Xiaoran adjusted his mood and continued, “In the waiting hall in the corridor, because there were too many people, the murderer didn’t have a chance to attack you. And you happened to want to go to the bathroom, so you got up and left. At this time, did you notice who was following you?”

Third Madam did not react.

Huo Xiaoran was also certain that she did not react. If she had discovered that someone was following him, she would definitely have been more vigilant and not easily pushed down.

Huo Xiaoran said, “When you came out of the bathroom, you leaned against the French window beside the bathroom to rest because you were in a bad mood. Did anyone approach you at this time?”

Third Madam was surprised by Huo Xiaoran’s intelligence. Then, her eyes suddenly dimmed.

It was obvious she knew someone had approached her.

But she didn’t react.

Huo Xiaoran understood that she was a patient and did not press her. After all, maintaining her mood was the foundation of saving her.

“This person is Third Brother?”

Huo Xiaoran tried to ask.

Third Madam still did not react.

But her finger flicked.

Huo Xiaoran saw her reaction. He turned off the recording and comforted the patient. “Third Sister-in-law, rest well.”

Then he got up and left.

After coming out of the ward, Qiao An and Li Ze’en surrounded him. “Uncle, how’s my mother?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Don’t worry. She’s recovering well.”

Then, he glanced at Li Zecheng meaningfully. “Zecheng, call the police.”

Li Zecheng widened his eyes in surprise. “Uncle, you suspect that my mother was pushed down?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Your mother has already admitted that someone attacked her. However, the police need to investigate who it is.”

Li Zecheng suddenly glanced at the window at the end of the corridor. At this moment, the confusion in his heart was finally clear. No wonder his mother jumped off the building on the third floor of the hospital.

Li Zecheng said, “Then did my mother tell you who the murderer is?”

“She seems to have the intention of hiding it.”

Li Zecheng was not stupid. If his mother was unwilling to identify the murderer, it could only mean that the murderer had a beneficial relationship with her.

And that person was most likely his father, Li Tingfeng.

Because it was Li Tingfeng, her mother did not dare to send him to jail. After all, his mother loved them very much. She had only lived for them in her life. She definitely did not want their lives to be stained with crime.

When Li Zecheng thought of this, he was so angry that his veins bulged.

“I understand.”

Huo Xiaoran stopped.

He turned to look at Qiao An. This girl had been accompanying him since early in the morning and had not eaten breakfast. Now, she looked hungry.

Huo Xiaoran reached out and Qiao An held his hand with a smile. She was weak. “Brother Xiaoran, can we go eat now?”

Huo Xiaoran smiled gently. “Yes, what do you want to eat?”

‘I want good food and lots of good food. Your treat.’

“Sure, my treat.”

They drifted away.

Li Ze’en looked steadily at Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran, then glanced at the dejected Li Zecheng and said, “Brother, is Qiao An with Uncle?”

Li Zecheng said sadly, “They were a couple to begin with. I stole two years of their time.”

Li Ze’en was slightly stunned.

“Are you regretting divorcing Qiao An?”

Li Zecheng smiled bitterly.

Li Ze’en said, “Brother, it wasn’t easy for you to be with Sister-in-law Wei Xin. You can’t let her down.”

Li Zecheng looked at his sister and said, “Do you know that time will tell? Missing out on Qiao An is our family’s greatest loss.”

Li Ze’en was stunned.

“What’s so good about Qiao An?” she muttered.

But she could tell that Qiao An was different today from the Qiao An who had once been a full-time housewife in their family. She bloomed with feminine charm.

While Third Madam was recuperating in the hospital, Li Tingfeng never appeared again.
