Chu Lan and Qiao Xi went to the restaurant to have lunch. "Are you hungry? You've been making trouble all morning. Ignore them. If they dare to make trouble with you again, I will kick them out of the hotel."

Qiao Xi took a sip of water. "There must be something hateful about pitiful people. This time Shen Ruyue must pay the price! Otherwise, anyone can come and push me."

Chu Lan smiled and said, "You're right, that's how it should be. However, you didn't even tell me that you were pregnant. Isn't that a bit unfriendly?"

Qiao Xi gave a bitter smile, "I have my own difficulties."

Chu Lan moved closer, "I know, I was joking, but now a lot of people should know that you are pregnant, you have to be careful."

Qiao Xi's eyes darkened, "I want to see who else dares to harm me!"

In the blink of an eye, I saw Shen's mother walking towards me stealthily.

Chu Lan's face darkened. "This old lady hasn't given up yet? Don't pay attention to her. I'll take care of it!"

There were many customers in the restaurant, and Shen's mother just wanted to take advantage of the crowd to cause trouble. At most, she could just fall to the ground and bump into someone. I believe everyone would sympathize with the old lady.

He came up to Qiao Xi tremblingly.

Before she could speak, Chu Lan shouted, "What do you want to do now? Didn't I tell you that we can't help you with your daughter's matter?"

The old lady was confused. She hadn't even opened her mouth yet, so how could the other party take the initiative? She looked around at the guests around her with a sad face.

Just as she was about to cry, Chu Lan said coldly, "If you don't want everyone to know what bad things Shen Ruyue did, you'd better stay away from us!"

Shen's mother was ready to play tricks, "Mrs. Long, please let my daughter go, I beg you, she just pushed you, you are not hurt, why are you so cruel to her?"

This immediately attracted the attention of the guests nearby.

Mother Shen had her back to everyone. She took Qiao Xi's hand and continued to plead, "We all promised to compensate for your medical expenses. Can't you just let her go?"

Qiao Xi wanted to pull her hand out, but the old lady pulled her hand hard and pushed it towards her. Then she leaned back and fell backwards. She even calculated the distance and her head just hit the corner of the table next to her.

She fell to the ground with a dizzy spell. She fell backwards with great force on purpose. The back of her head was bleeding. She fell to the ground groaning in pain.

Seeing this, Mr. Shen fell to the ground, hugged the old woman and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Someone's dead, come quickly, who can save her?"

Then he glared at Qiao Xi, "Why did you push her?! She just wanted to ask you to let my daughter go, I didn't expect you to be so cruel."

From the perspective of the guests at the table across from her, it seemed that the old lady was pushed by Qiao Xi. Several guests gathered around and looked at the old lady's injuries. Someone called the emergency number.

The restaurant was in chaos.

Someone was accusing Qiao Xi, "How could you push an old man with such great strength?"

Father Shen continued to cry, "We are almost 70 years old, how can you be so cruel, just because you are rich and powerful you can do whatever you want, you can beat people at will?

How could you be so cruel to an old man? "

Qiao Xi was also confused, but she quickly calmed down and watched their performance quietly. She didn't even try to lend a hand or check on Mother Shen's injuries.

Originally, she could give Shen's mother a few injections and give her a pill to make the old woman feel better.

But she knew very well that if she did so, Shen's father would definitely take advantage of the situation and accuse her of wanting to harm others, so she might as well just watch the show.

Chu Lan said angrily, "Can't you see that this old woman is trying to scam me? She was clearly the one who pulled my friend's hand and pushed it towards herself."

"Her daughter did something heinous and was arrested by the police. She came to my friend to plead for mercy, but my friend didn't agree. So she played a trick on me. Can you believe this?"

Father Shen touched the blood on the back of Mother Shen's head with one hand, and spread his palm to show everyone, crying and cursing.

"Are you still a human being? She hurt my wife like this, and you actually accused us of scamming her? This is the imperial capital, under the feet of the emperor, and there are such arrogant people!"

People generally sympathize with the weak. "I saw it. It was indeed the grandmother who held the young lady's hand. But I didn't see clearly whether she fell on purpose or the young lady pushed her."

"You're already old, who would play such a joke with their own life?"

"It must have been that woman who pushed her. Look, she still doesn't show any remorse. She sits there with a calm face, as if it had nothing to do with her?"

"It's really a bit outrageous. Even if she didn't push him, he fell because of her. Shouldn't she at least show some concern?"

"She's an old lady. A fall like that must be very serious. Let's see how she ends up!"

Chu Lan glared at them, "It is because of people like you who cannot distinguish right from wrong that some unscrupulous old people are encouraged to commit fraud. They are disrespectful to the elderly and do not deserve any sympathy at all!"

Mother Shen did fall hard, but she was still conscious and hadn't fainted yet. She hoped to take this opportunity to win everyone's sympathy and force Qiao Xi to withdraw the case.

He opened his eyes and looked at Qiao Xi, then turned sideways and struggled to crawl towards Qiao Xi. However, his head was aching and he felt dizzy, so he could not move forward. He stretched out his hands to grab Qiao Xi's clothes, but he could not reach them.

She could only look at Qiao Xi pitifully, "Mrs. Long, I don't blame you for pushing me down, but I just ask you to let my daughter go. I will use half of my life in exchange for your forgiveness of her, okay?"

Some people were filming with their phones, accusing Qiao Xi of being cold-blooded and ruthless, being so harsh on the old man. Sympathy for the weak is common, and Qiao Xi's cold face when facing the old man she pushed down further angered everyone.

Qiao Xi, "If everyone is like you, you can get a criminal off the hook by playing a trick, what is the point of the law?"

Father Shen insisted that it was Qiao Xi who pushed him, "You are committing a crime just now, you are intentionally causing harm! You said my daughter hired someone to push you, but you are intact, what crime did she commit?

What about you? You are a nearly 70-year-old woman who pushed her down and killed her, isn't that a crime?!"

Mother Shen held her breath and said, "Mrs. Long, how about this, we are even, okay? If you let my daughter go, I won't bother with you anymore.

I know that you are powerful and it would be as easy for you to crush us to death as it is to crush an ant. We are all miserable people. Please don't make things difficult for my daughter, okay?"

Qiao Xi glanced at the food on the table. "It's so boring. It's a pity that these delicious dishes have made me lose my appetite! Chu Lan, let's go and eat somewhere else."

As soon as Chu Lan stood up, he was stopped by several guests who were full of justice.

"You can't leave! You want to leave after hurting people like this?"

"Yes, I have called the police, and they will be here soon."

Someone stared at Chu Lan's work badge and asked, "Are you the lobby manager here? How could the lobby manager of Wilson Hotel allow his best friend to hurt someone in the restaurant?"

"And you can still scold others with a clear conscience after hurting others? And you can still leave with a clear conscience?"

"Wilson's is one of the most luxurious hotels in the capital. Is this how they train their employees?"
