Sun Xue thought the old man was in a bad mood. After all, his son was still unconscious in the hospital, so it was understandable that the old man was sad.

"Uncle, are you in trouble?" Sun Xue asked gently.

The old man looked her up and down, and suddenly said angrily, "Stop being so hypocritical. You know better than anyone what you've done. What I hate most is people who say one thing in public and another behind their backs."

Sun Xue: “…”

The old man's sudden words startled Sun Xue and she was speechless for a long time.

No, why is she so hypocritical? Why is she saying one thing in front of others and another behind their backs?

When Boss Pan said that his mother had no money for hospitalization, she gave him 100,000 yuan without saying a word. When Boss Pan had surgery, she took the risk to sign the operation form and then paid a large sum of medical expenses. She gave her love, but in the end she ended up being a hypocrite.

She felt very aggrieved, but she tried her best to control her emotions. She knew that there must be a reason behind the old man's sudden change of mood.

The first thing that came to her mind was that someone must have said something bad about her in front of the old man, otherwise the old man would not suddenly say such unkind words.

She also speculated that her sudden arrest by the public security authorities must be related to this.

She asked tentatively, "Uncle Pan, did someone say something in front of you?"

The old man's tone was still cold. "Don't worry about what others say. Ask yourself, what did you do to my son?"

Sun Xue looked bewildered, "I...didn't do anything to offend Boss Pan!"

The old man's eyes flashed with anger as he asked:

"Then let me ask you, how did you manage to defraud my son of his project? They say the project is worth tens of millions, and you only gave him a few million. Isn't there a conspiracy here? Also, how did my son faint? You should know that better than anyone, right? Don't think you can get rid of me just because you paid tens of thousands of yuan for his medical expenses! No way! I'm telling you, I've hired a lawyer, and I'm determined to get justice for my son, even if it costs me my life!"

The more the old man spoke, the more excited he became, and his facial expression became distorted.

"Why do you treat him like this? Is it easy for him to live for this family? He hasn't had a good night's sleep or a good day in the past year. Our family has broken up, our relatives and friends are avoiding us, and debt collectors often come to threaten us. He lives in fear. If he didn't still care about us two old people, would he still have the courage to live..."

The old man was in tears and his voice was choked with sobs, unable to speak.

Every word and sentence made Sun Xue feel extremely uncomfortable.

She could understand Boss Pan's situation very well and could also feel the old man's inner indignation and despair.

The nurse beside her understood what was said and stared at Sun Xue with a suspicious look on her face.

Sun Xue endured the grievance in her heart. She stepped forward to hold the old man's arm and comforted him softly:

"Uncle Pan, don't get excited. Someone with ulterior motives must have fabricated this story in front of you. They're coming for me, just to discredit me. Don't let them use you. I've never framed your son. Everything I did was for his good. I have a clear conscience."

The old man had already been brainwashed by the strange man. He could not listen to anything Sun Xue said at this time. In his mind, the image of Sun Xue had been branded as a "liar".

He shook off Sun Xue's hand with a look of disgust, speaking in a cold and abusive tone:

"Do you think I'll believe your sweet talk? You liars, what utterly unscrupulous things wouldn't you do for money? I'm telling you, you'll have to hand over the project you cheated my son on. My son is unconscious from all the anger you've caused. You'll take full responsibility!"

The old man was shaking with anger, as if he had used up all his strength. Sun Xue staggered a few steps and bumped into the wall of the corridor.

"What do you want to do?"

The nurse at the side couldn't bear to watch it anymore, she stepped forward and pushed Sun Xue, asking in a cold tone.

"Old man, don't be angry. Don't get yourself hurt by anger. Let's go."

The nurse helped the emotionally agitated and trembling old man to sit on a bench not far away, and it was unknown what he was saying to the old man.

From time to time, he turned his head and glared at Sun Xue.

Just as the old man was scolding Sun Xue, a lot of noisy people gathered around them.

Seeing the old man trembling with anger, everyone looked at Sun Xue strangely.

Sun Xue had been deliberately controlling her emotions. The moment the old man pushed her away, all the grievances in her heart surged into her heart like a tide.

Her nose felt sore, her emotions broke down instantly, and tears streamed down.

She knew that the old man was being used, but the words he said hurt her heart deeply and made it difficult for her to accept it.

She closed her eyes, feeling desperate and helpless.

She always thought she was strong inside, but at this moment, she was still defeated.

A few minutes later, Sun Xue wiped the tears rolling down her cheeks, turned around and went downstairs.

Since she couldn't change the old man's opinion for the time being, she decided to find out the real mastermind behind the scenes and find the person who fabricated the facts and framed her.

After leaving the hospital, she contacted a well-known local lawyer to assist her in handling the case.

After contacting a lawyer, she returned to the hospital.

Seeing Sun Xue looking a little distraught, Zhu Biao asked with concern:

"What happened? Is Boss Pan awake?"

Sun Xue shook her head, her tone filled with helplessness, "Uncle, do you think it's so difficult to be a good person these days?"

Zhu Biao could hear something behind Sun Xue's words, "Xiao Sun, is it that Boss Pan's father is blaming you for Boss Pan's affairs?"

Sun Xue sighed, "Someone must have told the old man something. He's now insisting that I cheated Boss Pan out of his project and caused him to be hospitalized. From the way he spoke, I think he was the one who reported the case."

Zhu Biao cursed angrily, "How dare he say such things? Isn't he afraid of his conscience being condemned? Is he crazy? He believes everything others say!"

"Xiao Sun, I warned you a long time ago, but you just wouldn't listen. Now, you've done a good deed, but you've gotten yourself into trouble. You're just too young!"

Sun Xue felt very aggrieved. She said angrily, "I have hired a lawyer to help me with this case. I will never let those who spread rumors and framed me go!"

Zhu Biao shook his head. "You're overthinking things! You shouldn't have signed the surgery form in the first place. What if Boss Pan doesn't wake up? What if the person who spread the rumors can't be caught? Who would you turn to for justice?"
