Zhao Ping quickly seized the opportunity to express his plan, “Granny Lin, I think it’s better for Kang Wei and me to talk to Ah Zhen about this. After all, we are good friends and peers. He might be more receptive to what we say.”

Lin Wei nodded in agreement, “You’re right. What we elders say may not necessarily get through to him. It’s crucial to rely on you, his friends, to remind him.”

“Yes,” Kang Wei chimed in, seeing the situation was favorable, “Although we had a bit of a disagreement earlier, I’m sure Air Zhen won’t take it to heart. I’ll make sure to apologize to him sincerely. Once he calms down, I’ll talk to him about this matter properly.”

Lin Wei patted his shoulder with relief, “I’m truly grateful to have you two good friends by Ah Zhen’s side. So, I’ll leave this matter of comforting Ah Zhen to you two, and as for dealing with that despicable woman, leave it to me.”

“All Ling,” Lin Wei turned to the maid, “help me call Detective Wang. Ask him to find out who went out with Ah Zhen today, and make sure to find out before the end of the day. I must have a word with that girl!”

“Yes,” the maid responded promptly and hurried off to fulfill the task.

Feeling somewhat relieved, Lin Wei directly called Li Si in front of Kang Wei and Zhao Ping.

At first, both of them were a bit apprehensive, especially when the call was answered. Zhao Ping felt like his heart was in his throat.

“Hello, Granny, why are you suddenly calling me?” Li Si’s slightly anxious voice came through the receiver.

Lin Wei snorted coldly, “Why am I calling you? If I hadn’t, were you planning to keep Ah Zhen’s injury from me?”

“You already know?” Li Si was briefly surprised, then chuckled, “I was just about to call you. Ah Zhen is fine now. The doctor said he needs to stay in the hospital for observation for a while. Fortunately, although he hit his waist, it’s not life-threatening, and there won’t be any lasting effects. So, please rest assured.”

Lin Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good. Which hospital are you at? I’m coming over now.”

Li Si mentioned the name of the hospital, then asked, ” Who told you about this? Was it Uncle Kang?”

As Lin Wei walked out, she urgently said, “No, it was Zhao Ping and Kang Wei who came to admit their mistakes to me. Zhao Ping even brought his mother along. I thought it was just some minor squabble between kids. As long as Air Zhen is okay, it’s fine. But that girl mustn’t be let off!”

Li Si’s mouth hung open, full of astonishment, “What girl?”

Lin Wei said, “The girl who went out with Ah Zhen. I don’t know her name, but I’ve asked a private detective to investigate. Don’t tell Ah Zhen about this. I’m afraid he’ll throw a tantrum again. I’ll just quietly teach her a lesson to make her remember, and keep her away from our Ah Zhen in the future!”

Li Si hurriedly said, “No, no, no, you mustn’t do that!”

Lin Wei wondered, “She got Ah Zhen into a fight with his friends for her, then just walked away. How can I not teach her a good lesson? As the elder brother, you should advise your brother more often. He’s in his adolescence now, inevitably he’ll be attracted by those flashy and unserious girls. You have to keep an eye on him for me, don’t let him pick up any bad habits from them, understand?”

Li Si nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and glanced in the direction of Mei Shu, who was still leaning against the wall nearby. “Mrs. Lin, you’ve misunderstood. That girl didn’t leave. She’s been waiting here for Ah Zhen to wake up. Please don’t hire a detective! ”

Lin Wei couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this. “Alright, that’s great! Saves me the trouble. You keep an eye on her for me. I want to see what kind of scumbag could lead Ah Zhen astray like this. I’m going to give her a piece of my mind right now!”

Upon hearing this, Kang Wei tugged on Zhao Ping’s sleeve with some concern. “Shouldn’t we still call Brother Li Si and have him take Mei Shu away? I’m afraid Grandma Lin will see through our lies, and then we’ll be in trouble!”

However, Zhao Ping looked unconcerned. “Oh, it’s fine. We just told a little white lie. When Mei Shu was first brought here by Li Zhen, we really didn’t know who she was! Don’t worry, Grandma Lin probably doesn’t recognize her either. Ignorance is innocence. We’ve already apologized to her. What more does she want?”

Kang Wei still couldn’t shake off his worry. “Can we really get away with this?”

Zhao Ping reassured him, “Just relax. When we get to the hospital, Grandma Lin might even scold Mei Shu on our behalf. She’s so old, Mei Shu wouldn’t dare argue with her face-to-face. So even if Grandma Lin finds out later that she offended someone important, it doesn’t matter. She’s an elder, what harm could a little scolding to Mei Shu do?”
