Poor Li Tingyan, still gravely injured, yet there wasn’t a single person who sympathized with him.
At this mont, the uninvited guest Chu Huan barged in. She had been in a bad mood these few days and spent her ti wildly playing in dance halls.
As soon as she got ho, she heard from her parents about Li Tingyan’s accident, so she rushed over imdiately, seeing this as a great chance to prove herself.
"Auntie Li, Uncle Li, I’ve co to see Brother Tingyan!"
Chu Huan called out sweetly, intentionally panting and wiping the sweat from her face, pretending to be particularly concerned about Li Tingyan.
Shang Wan and Li Zhenhua nodded without speaking. After Chu Huan lied last ti, they weren’t as warm towards her as they had been before.
Not to ntion, Nianyang is their daughter-in-law, and they know how to prioritize.
In front of their daughter-in-law, it’s best not to be overly affectionate with a woman who covets their son; it’s better to keep it superficial.
Yet it was Chu Zhan who spoke first, "Chu Huan, who allowed you to co over!"
Chu Huan complained, "Brother, Brother Tingyan is hurt, why didn’t you tell ? I only found out by asking Mom and Dad."
As she spoke, her gaze landed on Nianyang, and her hands went to her hips,
"Gu Nianyang, after you crippled Brother Tingyan’s leg, how do you still have the face to stay here?!"
She had specially inquired about Li Tingyan’s condition from the nurse when she arrived. The nurse said Li Tingyan had a comminuted fracture in his right leg, and the doctor said it was beyond saving, but his fiancée insisted on performing the surgery herself...
The nurse was called away by a patient halfway through speaking, leaving Chu Huan to fill in the rest with her imagination.
Even the hospital doctors said Li Tingyan’s leg was gone, so how could Nianyang save it? The operation must have failed.
Seeing that Li Tingyan’s leg was in a cast, she assud it had been amputated and quickly demanded answers.
Ha, finally a chance to trip Gu Nianyang up.
Little did she know, upon saying this, everyone looked at her as if she were a fool.
Shang Wan and Li Zhenhua’s faces darkened slightly; why hadn’t they realized before how stupid Chu Huan was?
Talking nonsense without finding out the facts first, their son was perfectly fine, what nonsense about a crippled leg!
"My wife is no fool like you. She never makes mistakes when treating patients." Li Tingyan was awakened by the noise, and upon hearing Chu Huan’s words, instinctively defended his wife.
Chu Huan bit her lip, "Brother Tingyan, stop speaking for Gu Nianyang, she’s the reason you’re like this..."
Shang Wan lost her patience, "Chu Huan, haven’t you said enough? Who said Tingyan’s leg was crippled? Yangyang has already healed it!"
What?
Healed?
Chu Huan was dumbfounded, instinctively looking at Chu Zhan, receiving only a roll of his eyes, finally realizing she had said sothing stupid.
In her mind, she was roaring, how could this be, how could Gu Nianyang even perform surgery, there’s no such thing as superstition like this!
She squeezed out a smile uglier than crying and said,
"Sorry, I didn’t know. I was too worried about Brother Tingyan and said the wrong thing..."
Li Tingyan sneered, "Worried about ? Your words really touched . If you were really worried, when the earthquake in Lincheng was broadcast everywhere these past few days, why didn’t you co to the disaster area to help? Now you show up after the fact as if you can fool us?"
Chu Huan’s face instantly lost all its color.
She stood there helplessly, under Li Tingyan’s piercing gaze, her lips quivering and unable to utter a word for a long ti.

(I think the male lead has appeared too often, so I’m going to reduce his scenes moving forward. After all, this is the female lead’s domain, wouldn’t you agree?)
