Just as Mrs. Chu finished speaking, she took out her phone and prepared to go live.
She had gained quite a few followers on her account after a previous interview.
Some of these followers sympathized with her, while others were waiting to see the final outcome of the events.
Mrs. Chu believed that by utilizing these followers, she could gain the upper hand in public opinion.
Just as she raised her phone, Chu Yin laughed.
"Go ahead, start your live. I’d like to see if your followers would be curious about why I’m in the hospital."
"Mom, how should I explain it? Should I say that Dad accidentally pushed me into the river, causing my assistant to be in a coma now?"
"Or tell your followers that Lin Zhiyi was also in my car—she’s the daughter of Second Madam and a member of the Gong Family. Who would dare offend the Gong Family?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chu’s hand trembled.
Her expression was filled with the same dread as when Father Chu was taken away.
"You, you had someone from the Gong Family in your car? How come?"
Seeing her expression and combining it with Father Chu’s demeanor, Chu Yin had guessed most of the situation.
She asked back, "Was it Chu Wu who told you I reported it to the police? She must have asked around about my whereabouts. Do you think she wouldn’t know that Lin Zhiyi was in my car?"
Mrs. Chu: "..."
Chu Yin continued, "Anyone with a bit of sense would know that this was not the time to act against me. Yet she made a sick father drive into us and got you to pressure me. What’s going on? Has she really broken her leg?"
"You, you stop talking nonsense!" Mrs. Chu instinctively retorted, but her voice was weak.
Chu Yin pointed in a direction.
"Over there at the end is Zhiyi’s room. Does Chu Wu dare to go and apologize? Or did she tell you to force me to apologize to Zhiyi and Third Young Master for all the wrongdoing?"
Mrs. Chu opened her mouth but said nothing.
Obviously, Chu Yin had guessed Chu Wu’s next move.
Chu Wu appeared harmless in public and liked letting others handle matters.
Mrs. Chu, being Chu Yin’s mother with a position to uphold, knew that the old Chu Yin would indeed ask for Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen’s forgiveness.
She would silently endure all grievances and responsibilities.
But not anymore.
Mrs. Chu also realized the change in Chu Yin at that moment.
She became more displeased, warning in her tone, "Chu Yin, we are your parents. It’s true you’ve become famous, but a father in jail will cost you your future."
"Are you concerned about my future or Chu Wu’s? At least I’ve debuted and am a victim, but Chu Wu is different. The moment Dad’s incident goes public, her debut hopes are dashed as no family, including the Mo Family, would want her as a daughter-in-law."
"You..."
Mrs. Chu finally understood the change in Chu Yin.
She’d gotten smarter.
Chu Yin chuckled lightly, "Why are you looking at me like that? Think I’m smart? Actually, no, I just refuse to be someone who silently endures."
"..."
Mrs. Chu choked.
But thinking of her husband still at the police station, she grew inexplicably agitated.
She reached out to grab Chu Yin, trying to pull her off the bed.
Having narrowly escaped from underwater, Chu Yin didn’t have much strength.
Mrs. Chu easily pulled half of her body off the hospital bed.
"Come with me to the station, tell them it was all a misunderstanding, then go plead with Third Young Master and your company, even if you have to kneel, just don’t let your father go to jail, otherwise..."
"Or else what!" Chu Yin screamed with all her might, "Come up with another way to kill me? I am your daughter too! I’m human too!"
Mrs. Chu paused for a moment and started pulling again.
She had no other choice.
Just as Chu Yin was about to fall off the bed, the door was forcefully pushed open again.
A figure like the wind pushed Mrs. Chu away with force.
Mrs. Chu fell to the ground. When she got up to push the door, it had already been locked from inside.
"Chu Yin! Chu Yin! Open the door for me!"
"What’s going on here!"
Li Huan happened to hear the noise, and as he came to check, he saw the middle-aged woman who resembled Chu Yin.
He immediately changed his tone, sternly interrupting her shouting.
"Madam, this is a hospital. If you continue like this, I’ll call security."
