Chapter 611 The target of public criticism
"what--!!!"
The scream was so shrill that it made one's scalp tingle.
The violin music that was being played suddenly stopped, and the guests stopped talking and looked in the direction of the sound.
Except for Miss Liu, who was obviously the victim, the remaining three, Xu Weiwei, were scrutinized by everyone.
Old man Marin didn't care about avoiding suspicion at this time. He ran over anxiously to help his little lover up, shouting "Call a doctor!", and then he and the servant carried the man to lie on the sofa.
Gina came to her dazed daughter, stroking her arm to give her strength: "It's okay, it's okay, Susu... What happened? Tell mom..."
The originally inconspicuous little corner instantly became the center of the storm, and the crowd of onlookers gathered here and surrounded the three people.
"Excuse me."
"Please give way."
The Sifuss couple walked to the front of the crowd. They just stood there, saying nothing, exuding an inviolable majesty. The crowd's discussions unconsciously quieted down. Xu Weiwei's heart no longer felt like she was walking on clouds.
"What just happened? Can anyone explain it to me?" It seemed that these words were spoken to everyone, but Lin Yaozong's gaze fell on the man alone.
"It's none of my business! I didn't touch the pregnant woman at all! She was the one who knocked the person down! Someone of you must have seen it, right?!" the man hurriedly clarified.
His instinct to avoid danger led him to place all the blame on Xu Weiwei. The "sorry" he had just spoken had long since dissipated into thin air.
"That's not the case," Xu Weiwei argued. "You didn't touch her directly, but you bumped into me, and that's why I accidentally ran over the pregnant woman."
"Who, who bumped into you?! Don't slander me! You are talking nonsense just because your family is powerful!" The man said in a timid manner.
"I was just busy chatting with Su Mang and didn't notice you at all! You must have stepped on your skirt and fallen, and then you saw me and blamed me. I was so kind as to help you up..."
Xu Weiwei was shocked by the man's ability to confuse right and wrong. She tilted her head and stared at him. After listening to what he said, she commented, "That's ridiculous!"
"You're the villain who made the first move and then turned the tables! With your storytelling skills, it's a waste of talent not to be a screenwriter! It was you who bumped into me! Su Mang can testify!"
Xu Weiwei had his back to the two of them and was not aware of the specific details, but Su Mang, who was facing him, must have seen it.
The focus suddenly shifted to Su Mang, and her heart skipped a beat. Not because of fear, but because of excitement.
Is there anything more satisfying than seeing Selvie, who has always been the center of attention and praised to the sky, fall down and be tarnished?
If she didn't step on her hard and crush her into the mud, she would be doing a disservice to all the injustices she had suffered during their long time together!
Su Mang bit her lip, looking hesitant and embarrassed.
Gina hugged her and encouraged her, "It's okay, daughter. Just tell me what you saw. Don't be afraid."
Su Mang glanced at Xu Weiwei quickly, then quickly looked away, as if she was very afraid of her. Then she heard her lower her head and say weakly, "I don't know..."
"I was chatting with a new friend at the time and didn't pay attention to what happened next..."
The guests around all showed understanding expressions when they heard it, and looked at Xu Weiwei with eyes full of condemnation.
The two of them gave the same testimony. How could they have moved around and bumped into someone while chatting peacefully? The young woman from the Marin family clearly couldn't get past her conscience, so she evaded the question and said she didn't know. But in fact, it was already obvious.
Xu Weiwei's angry expression suddenly disappeared. She looked at Su Mang in a daze. After a few seconds, the emotions in her eyes gradually dissipated like the tide, and her face became expressionless.
Disappointment is inevitable, but there's also a sense of relief. It's like a box of potato chips that you couldn't bear to throw away long after it expired. Today, you open it and find that it's indeed bad. Although the packaging is intact, moisture has penetrated the inside, causing it to deteriorate.
It is certainly painful to have your expectations dashed, but at the same time, it frees up more space in your backpack to carry other things, allowing you to hit the road again with a lighter step.
"Since she's not paying attention, why don't we ask the person involved? The doctor hasn't arrived yet, and I think the lady is still conscious." Mrs. Sivers said calmly.
Everyone turned around and looked at Miss Liu, who was lying on the sofa not far away and moaning. Old Ma Lin squatted beside her and held her hand. There was no need to guess what the relationship between the two was.
Hena resisted the urge to tear the two apart, and her tone didn't improve because of Miss Liu's condition: "Hey, how did you fall just now? Speak."
Miss Liu's lips were pale, her forehead was sweaty, and she no longer had the energy to think. Moreover, everything just now happened in a flash, and she could only see Xu Weiwei, who was closest to her.
"It's her...it's her who hurt me!"
Miss Liu raised her head with all her might and pointed at Xu Weiwei to accuse her.
Mrs. Seaforth frowned, not expecting that this "testimony" would be unfavorable to her daughter.
Seeing Miss Liu's miserable appearance, it was hard for everyone not to be moved, and they felt even more dissatisfied with Xu Weiwei.
"Why are you so unstable? This is a life, ah..."
"It's okay if you do something wrong, but you still don't admit it."
"She's still treating patients like this. Who would dare to go see her? She's just using hunger marketing. I've been fed up with it for a long time..."
Xu Weiwei was temporarily isolated and helpless, which made Su Mang, who was watching the show, feel very happy.
Even if she tells what happened later, she is not afraid. People are prejudiced. Who will believe her now? They will only think that she is just biting people by any means necessary.
"Everyone, please be quiet." Lin Yaozong raised his voice.
"I'm sorry that you didn't have a great time today. Let's get together again when we have time. Please keep today's events a secret and don't tell anyone else. Miss Selvie didn't mean to do that. We have other things to do later and can't entertain you. Sorry, sorry."
The guests waved their hands in understanding. After witnessing such a commotion, they felt their trip had paid off. Satisfied, they prepared to leave.
However, a voice behind him shouted clearly and resoundingly, "Wait a minute!"
"What do you mean, Mr. Lin? Are you saying that I'm the culprit by pleading for me? That's a bit arbitrary."
Xu Weiwei stood there with her hands hanging naturally, her posture casual. The aura she exuded was calm and firm, completely different from before.
Su Mang bit her lip anxiously, not understanding what she was going to do.
The people who had just turned around and were about to leave also retracted their steps, returned to their original positions with great interest, and even moved closer.
