Chapter 1159: Chapter 1159: Kicked Out

Zhang Lanxiang couldn’t allow his words to leave even a hint of disadvantage against An Hao.

"It was my fault, it was jealousy," Ruan Fangfang admitted her mistake.

"Look, everyone, look at this young girl; her envy is quite strong. Unable to surpass others, she devises schemes to harm others. Do you think our community has room for such a person?" Zhang Lanxiang raised his arm and called out, and the family members responded one after another.

"Drive her out."

"Don’t ever let her back in, lest she harms someone."

The people on the first floor were noisily discussing.

Downstairs.

Hen Zhiyuan brought Ma Mei back home.

He had dinner at the old colonel’s house and seeing the relentless rain outside, he went directly to pick her up from the hospital.

The couple could hear the hubbub inside as soon as they were under the staircase.

Just arriving at the second floor, they saw a crowd blocking the way to the third floor.

"What’s happening here?" Ma Mei asked, puzzled.

The neighbors, seeing the couple’s return, began blaming Ruan Fangfang in succession: "Look, your well-kept niece is wandering around late at night scaring people. The chief of staff’s pregnant wife is very frail; if her pregnancy is weak, it could seriously harm her because of your niece."

"What? Am I hearing this right?" Ma Mei’s head buzzed.

What was wrong with Ruan Fangfang?

She went to bother the chief of staff’s wife, whether she had met her before or not.

"Who could deceive you? You should hurry up and see for yourself."

Ma Mei pushed through the crowd and rushed to the third floor, seeing both her home and the opposite door crowded with people, including Zhang Lanxiang’s wife.

She was holding Ruan Fangfang by the collar, speaking vigorously: "This is what everyone thinks. I think the same. Let’s drive her out."

"Ah, sister-in-law!" Ma Mei quickly grabbed Zhang Lanxiang, trying to sweet-talk her, "Please don’t be like her; she is young, doesn’t understand anything, and is a few frames short of a full reel! Whatever damned things she’s done, you have to bear with her!"

"Why should we bear with her?" Zhang Lanxiang glared at Ma Mei, "Even if I’m willing to bear with her, ask if my sister-in-law is willing or not?"

Saying this, she pointed at An Hao.

Ma Mei had rushed up here in a panic, solely to help Ruan Fangfang out of this predicament.

There was no discussion about it tonight; he turned his head and saw An Hao standing at the opposite doorway, arms crossed, leaning against the wall, a cold smile playing on her lips as she watched him.

"An Hao?" Ma Mei was stunned, all these days they had been discussing, the chief of staff discussing An Hao, and yet he had never connected the two together.

"Doctor Ma, what a coincidence, we live opposite each other," An Hao said with a forced smile.

Coming back to his senses, Ma Mei quickly apologized to An Hao: "I’m really sorry! Ruan Fangfang has caused trouble again. This child is thoughtless, having been raised without parents from a young age, following me around pitifully. It’s my fault for spoiling her."

In this situation, Ma Mei had no choice but to play the family card.

Letting others know that her niece was actually a pitiful child.

Hoping to stir up some sympathy so that they might let her off the hook.

"Obviously, you are responsible," An Hao coldly looked at her and said, "You not only fail to educate her, but you also scheme with her. I was too soft-hearted before, only to find out that the one you kept letting go was a malicious wolf constantly wanting to harm me."

Ma Mei hadn’t expected An Hao to say such things, leaving her completely stunned.
