Chapter 82 - Huangpu Shao Beat Mu Sifa
Presently, chaos erupted in the vicinity of Mu Sifa's location. This tumult arose because, upon entering the hospital, Huangfu Shao had unceremoniously delivered a punch to Mu Sifa, right before the eyes of everyone.
“What's happening here? Isn't that Huangfu Shao? We're from the most prominent Wealthy Class family in China.”
“Indeed, it's him! Why did he suddenly strike the hospital dean?”
“Aren't they friends? Or did something go wrong?”
“I sense something serious is afoot.”
“Why is there so much drama lately? Just last night, the dean's wife caused a scene, and now his friend is fighting.”
“What happened last night?” A curious staff member inquired.
“Well, I heard that the principal's mistress came looking for him. The dean's wife caught sight of her and lost her temper instantly. And you know what's more astonishing? That mistress is a man. What's even more shocking is that he's the Principal's wife's elder brother. It's truly bewildering.”
“Oh my goodness! So the dean is this capricious? And he attacked his wife's brother?”
“Who can fathom the truth? In any case, it's enough to leave one shaking their head. ‘To know one's own face but not one's heart,' as they say, what a beast.”
“This is getting too frightening. We should steer clear of the dean from now on.”
The staff members delved into gossip once more, even revisiting the events of the previous night.
Hearing this, Huangfu Shao's eyes grew colder. He grasped Mu Sifa's collar and demanded, “You better start explaining. What exactly is happening with Xiaojie?”
Mu Sifa anticipated that Huangfu Shao would resort to violence upon learning the truth, so he displayed little surprise.
He released Huangfu Shao's grip on his lapel, wiped away the blood from his mouth, and said, “Let's head to my office! This isn't the place to discuss it.”
Huangfu Shao had no desire to linger amidst the office gossip, so he suppressed his anger and trailed behind Mu Sifa.
His anger stemmed from his recollection of the doctor's revelation about Shang Xiaojie's sexual assault at the hospital. Moreover, Shang Xiaojie was a close friend of his beloved brother, so he couldn't simply let it slide.
Jia Tianxia, fearing that the two might engage in an altercation in the office, hurriedly followed suit. Before departing, he instructed the security personnel to caution the staff against spreading the news, warning of consequences if they failed to comply.
“Go ahead! If you want to know, I'll tell you.”
Mu Sifa closed the door and addressed Huangfu Shao, who was regarding him with a furrowed brow.
“What transpired with Xiaojie? Didn't you marry Shang Minjie? What does it mean to be entangled with Xiaojie? How do you expect Xiaojie to face the future?”
Mu Sifa couldn't help but laugh wryly at Huangfu Shao's query. “So, on that day at the hospital, you left me to converse with Xiaojie because you were aware that Shang Xiaojie was Shang Minjie's brother!”
It was truly a pity. Only the two of them were unaware of each other's true identities.
Huangfu Shao was taken aback. “Why are you bringing this up?”
Mu Sifa let out a sigh, his brow furrowing. “What do you think it means? I didn't know who he was when we were intimate, nor did I have any inkling that he was Shang Minjie's brother. Had I known, do you think I would have touched him?”
“The doctor mentioned that Xiaojie was sexually assaulted. Is that accurate?”
At this juncture, perhaps what concerned Huangfu Shao most was this particular issue.
“It's true, but it might be a misunderstanding. When he interacted with Nong Mobai on the Artillery website, I mistakenly assumed he was that sort of person, which led to my use of force against him.”
Compared to his initial incredulity upon learning of the incident, Mu Sifa was now in a state of reflection.
