The matriarch has returned; that spendthrift son is truly daring!

The man's punch missed, and he staggered forward, his brow furrowing in surprise. This little girl is so quick.

Duan Muqing looked at Song Shuyue, shielded Duan Muli behind her, and said coldly, "Why did you hit my brother for no reason?"

Seeing that the person in front of her was dignified and handsome, Song Shuyue told him what had just happened.

Duan Muqing denied it, saying, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. My brother would never provoke you for no reason. Miss Song, you must apologize to my brother."

He knew his brother's character very well; he would never do anything indecent. Besides, his brother was stupid and didn't even understand the relationship between men and women, so how could he possibly think of touching a girl's clothes?

Song Shuyue: "Whether you believe it or not"

Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Qianyun interrupted, "Cousin, it's all my fault. I had a grudge against this Miss Song before. She harbored resentment towards me. When she saw that my cousin was mentally challenged, she took her anger out on him and kicked him hard. You can see that my cousin is still in pain. It's clear that the kick was quite severe. My poor cousin suffered for me."

Duan Muli started sobbing, "Brother, brother, it hurts so much, it hurts so much! My tummy hurts so much."

Duan Muqing's face suddenly turned ashen. "Miss Song, no matter what your reason is, you hit my brother, and I will never let you get away with it!"

Song Shuyue snorted coldly, her eyes clear. "I told you, it was your brother who laid a hand on me first. I kicked him out of self-defense. Are you deaf? Can't you understand what people are saying? And the person you should be questioning is your cousin. Ask her why she instigated him to offend me."

"Shut up! Song Shuyue, you're talking nonsense. It was clearly you who hit someone for no reason. Cousin, you can't let her off easily."

Huo Linyu pushed the wheelchair over, her voice clear and bright, "Mr. Duan, they all saw Miss Jiang Qianyun say something to Duan Muli, and then Duan Muli walked towards Miss Song. Miss Song was sitting in a blind spot, but Miss Jiang Qianyun was not. This is the surveillance footage I had someone pull up. Also, as far as I know, because he is worried about Duan Muli's safety, he should rarely go out. So why is he here today?"

Every word Huo Linyu uttered made people think deeply and suspiciously. Duan Muqing's expression changed slightly, and his gaze fell on Jiang Qianyun.

Jiang Qianyun felt like she was being pricked by thorns and retorted loudly, "Huo Linyu, shut up! What nonsense are you spouting? What do you mean I instigated it? It's clearly Song Shuyue's fault, that shameless, despicable woman! Our two families were engaged. Now you're taking Song Shuyue's side at every turn. Huo Linyu, you're truly ungrateful! Think about it, after you got into trouble, it was I who was generous and kind enough not to break off the engagement with you immediately. You didn't become a laughingstock in our circle, and instead of thanking me, you're standing on this despicable woman's side."

Jiang Qianyun's words were extremely harsh, turning white into black, yet she became Huo Linyu's great benefactor.

Duan Muqing was not stupid or dull-witted; he was capable of judging situations and assessing people and matters.

Who is Huo Linyu? It's absolutely impossible for him to lie.

He probably already knows the truth in his heart.

Let's give Jiang Qianyun some face since she's a girl.

"Mr. Huo, Ms. Song, I am truly sorry. My younger brother was out of control and offended you. Please forgive him this time, considering his mental disability."

Song Shuyue nodded. "Mm."

She never blamed Duan Muli. Although he was mentally challenged, his eyes were innocent and pure. He hated Jiang Qianyun, that woman, for always causing trouble and targeting her.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qianyun was stunned for a moment, then shouted in a sharp voice, "Cousin! It's clearly her fault, yet you're apologizing to her? Are you crazy? Is your Duan family so afraid of the Song family? You're willing to suffer for your own brother, yet you still rush to please this woman. What's so good about her, or have you fallen for her too?"

Duan Muqing's face darkened, his brows furrowed, and he suppressed his anger. "Shut up, Jiang Qianyun, go home."

Jiang Qianyun looked at Duan Muqing and then at Song Shuyue, then sneered, crossing her arms and her eyes full of mockery.

"So that's how it is! Duan Muqing, I thought you were genuinely kind to your younger brother, but it turns out you've forgotten him for the sake of a pretty girl. You're useless, a piece of trash, Song Shuyue! Don't be too smug. I will tell my aunt the truth about what happened today. I will stand up for my cousin!"

Song Shuyue took two steps forward. "You keep saying you're doing this for your cousin's sake, that you want to stand up for him, but you haven't said a single word of concern to him the whole time. Instead, you've been targeting me and arguing with me. Mr. Huo just said that you instigated your cousin to come here. Jiang Qianyun, I'm very curious how a shameless woman like you can still live in this world."

"You, Song Shuyue, you..." Jiang Qianyun gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with malice and viciousness as she glared at her.

Song Shuyue interrupted, "Jiang Qianyun, you even use your own cousin. This is the first time I've ever seen someone like you. If you dare say another bad word about me, you'll lose all face today."

As Song Shuyue spoke, she pretended to reach out and hit her. Jiang Qianyun was so frightened that she quickly shrank her head, which made everyone burst into laughter.

Jiang Qianyun felt as if countless humiliating slaps were sweeping towards her, and she clenched her fists tightly.

I will remember Song Shuyue's humiliation today.

I will never let you go.

I will definitely kill you!

Jiang Qianyun gritted her teeth and left. Several slender, elegantly dressed women were standing on the second floor.

Looking down at the scene below, his eyes were filled with disdain.

"Jiang Qianyun is really stupid to think of using her own cousin. Isn't that just making her look foolish?"

"What an idiot, let's not talk about him anymore, let's go!"

Duan Muqing nudged her younger brother, "Apologize to Miss Song and say sorry."

Duan Muli timidly hid behind Duan Muqing, tugging at his clothes like a child, "Brother, brother, I'm scared! She hit me, it hurts, it hurts so much."

Song Shuyue's brows relaxed, and a smile bloomed on her cool face as she softly said, "I won't hit you anymore. Here's some candy for you."

Upon seeing the candy, Duan Muli was about to rush forward, but upon seeing Duan Muqing, she cautiously asked, "Brother, can I eat it?"

Duan Muqing nodded, and Duan Muli happily ran over, grabbed the two candies from her hand, unwrapped them, and held them to Duan Muqing's lips, her childlike voice ringing out, "Brother eats, brother eats first."

Duan Muqing felt a pang in her heart, her nose inexplicably stinging. She gently rubbed his head and said softly, "Alright, brother doesn't want to eat it, you eat it! You eat the candy."

Duan Muli insisted on giving him some, so Duan Muqing had no choice but to take a bite. It was sweet, had a cantaloupe flavor, and was delicious.

"Thank you, Miss Song. I will definitely treat you to a meal another day when I have the chance."

"it is good."

"Hiss!" As he spoke, Huo Linyu gasped, grabbed his leg, and felt a sharp pain. It felt as if his muscles and bones were twisting and turning. Huo Linyu frowned, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead from the pain.

Song Shuyue sensed something was wrong and quickly took his pulse. "Find a room, I'll give you a few acupuncture treatments. This is normal, a sign that you're about to recover."

Duan Muqing offered to push his wheelchair, saying, "There's a private room on the second floor, Mr. Huo. I'll take you up there."

Huo Linyu: "Thank you, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Duan Muqing glanced at Song Shuyue. She was actually a doctor?

But looking at her young age, it really proves the saying that you can't judge a book by its cover.

Huo Xiaoyu ran back breathlessly. She had searched around but couldn't find her older brother at all. She figured that the man must have been lying. Sensing something was wrong, she quickly ran back.

Hearing them discuss what had just happened, Huo Xiaoyu was furious. It was indeed Jiang Qianyun who was behind it.

Huo Linyu was settled on the bed, and Duan Muqing stood to the side with her younger brother. Duan Muqing noticed Huo Linyu's legs moving slightly and was extremely shocked.

I heard that his leg is completely useless. It's been three years, and even Jiang Fusheng's personal treatment has been in vain. In the end, everyone has their own fate.

But now he saw his foot twitch.

Unable to contain his curiosity, he asked, "Has Mr. Huo's leg improved? I wonder which renowned doctor treated him?"

Huo Linyu smiled, a look of gratitude on his face. "It's Miss Song. Miss Song has been treating me with acupuncture for half a month now."
