The Ye Family had already been pushed to the brink of bankruptcy by their father and son, and still, Xu Zhiye dared to use Ye Che's life to threaten an old man in his declining years.
Xia Weiyi's anger and resentment completely erupted at that moment. She suddenly pushed open the door to the hospital room, strode toward Xu Zhiye, and without a word, in front of so many people, she violently slapped Xu Zhiye across the face.
"Slap—" The sound crisp and loud, Xu Zhiye's face was turned slightly to the side by the sudden slap, frozen there.
The grandparents were all expecting Xu Mao's answer and hadn't noticed Xia Weiyi's entrance until they heard the slap, and only then did they turn their gazes to her, speechless.
His own son being struck by a woman, Xu Mao certainly couldn't swallow his pride. He jumped up, wanting to teach this ignorant woman a lesson, but before he could utter a word, Xu Zhiye had already reached out to stop him, shaking his head.
