Within a few minutes, Chen Yuxi's grandmother slowly opened her eyes.
She had the breathing tube removed and looked at the world with a dazed expression.
"Water... I want to drink water..."
"Alright Grandma, I'll go get you some water!"
Zhang Mo responded, then picked up the water cup from the table and walked towards the hot water room.
Just then, three or four tough-looking men entered the hospital.
"Ganggan just informed me that Huzizi and his lackeys were all nabbed by the police."
"I didn't expect this little girl to be as ruthless as her father at such a young age."
"It's fine, I already warned this little girl that if she dared to call the police, I would make sure her family would never have peace!"
"Isn't the old lady hospitalized? Let's go give her a reminder of how her son died!"
The leader, a man with a scar on his face, said mockingly.
Assaulting and killing people in the hospital were illegal.
But telling stories in the hospital was not, and even if the old lady fainted from mental shock, it would still be her own body's problem.
The hospital's surveillance cameras only captured video, not audio, so it was impossible to know what they had done.
Since there was no physical contact, the old lady would directly faint, and the footage couldn't serve as evidence, so the police couldn't do anything to them.
The few men walked into the VIP ward, shaking their heads, and pulled up chairs to sit beside Chen Yuxi's grandmother.
"Who are you people?"
The nurse sensed that these men were not good people. Moreover, Chen Yuxi's family had to have Chen Yuxi handle even the payment of medical fees, which showed that there were no adults in the family, so these people must be up to no good.
"It's none of your business, don't cause trouble!"
One of the thugs pointed at the nurse's nose and yelled.
The scar-faced man quickly pushed the thug aside and said with a smirk,
"Miss Nurse, we are friends of Chen Yuxi's father, here to visit the old lady. We'll leave after a while!"
The nurse didn't believe them, but she was no match for these thugs. She quickly ran out to get reinforcements.
At this moment, Dong Guizhi, lying in bed, still found it difficult to believe. She originally had presbyopia and astigmatism, only able to see a blurry outline of things.
Now, everything appeared clearly before her eyes.
As long as she willed it, she could even see the faint gray patterns on the ceiling with perfect clarity.
Moreover, it felt as if boundless energy was flowing within her.
"Am I going to die?"
Dong Guizhi muttered to herself.
She knew that some people, when they are close to death, suddenly become very clear-headed, as if nothing is wrong.
This was actually called a last burst of energy, indicating that life was about to reach its end.
"Old lady, do you recognize me?"
The scar-faced man asked Dong Guizhi, his face not smiling genuinely.
"No... are you here to take me away?"
Dong Guizhi asked with a bewildered expression.
"Haha, take you away? Old lady, you're so funny!"
"If your son was as funny as you, he should have gone into stand-up comedy instead of provoking people he couldn't afford to offend!"
"Do you know how your son died? A car accident!"
"I know the driver. He wasn't drunk driving at all. He had been drinking, but he was perfectly lucid when he crashed into your son's car."
"He intentionally aimed for your son's car to crash into it, and he even got a woman in return, making a profit!"
"Traffic manslaughter and drunk driving are indeed severely punished, but it was too worth it for two lives!"
"He told me that when your son crashed the first time, he wasn't dead yet, and he was begging them to save his wife."
"I didn't expect him to be so naive, thinking the driver was just drunk driving! That driver then hit him three or four more times before he finally stopped moving. His bones are really damn hard!"
The scar-faced man said with a laugh, describing such a brutal event as if it were an amusing anecdote.
"You killed my son!"
Dong Guizhi felt rage filling her chest, about to erupt at any moment.
"Don't say that. It wasn't me. We're just responsible for making sure you and your granddaughter are unhappy for the rest of your lives, and live in pain forever!"
"That person said that killing you directly is too boring. This kind of torture is more interesting!"
The scar-faced man continued to say with a grin.
"I'll fight you to the death!"
Dong Guizhi felt that since she was going to die anyway, she might as well take one of them down with her.
Whoosh!
The nearly eighty-year-old, white-haired old lady instantly jumped from the bed.
With a five-finger grasp, she immediately left five bloody gashes on the scar-faced man's face, the deepest wound even revealing bone!
Bang bang bang!
She didn't know how to fight, so she just grabbed the opponent and started punching and kicking.
However, strangely, these young men in their twenties had bodies as fragile as paper, completely unable to withstand Dong Guizhi's attacks.
With a punch from her, a thug immediately twisted his face, spun 360 degrees in mid-air, spat out a tooth, and fell heavily to the ground.
Another two thugs had their knees broken by Dong Guizhi's kick, and one was grabbed by the hair, tearing off a piece of his scalp, leaving it bloody.
"Holy crap, it's a ghost, a real damn ghost! The old lady has turned into a zombie!"
The scar-faced man roared like a pig.
In his opinion, Dong Guizhi absolutely could not have such fighting strength, otherwise how could she have made Huzizi and the others blockade the door for a month without daring to go out?
And someone who had been sent to the emergency room, how could she be so fierce?
The only possibility was that Dong Guizhi had already been angered to death by them, and now she had turned into a zombie seeking revenge.
"Hmm, this is..."
Zhang Mo returned after fetching the hot water and was stunned by what he saw.
Afterward, the nurse, along with the hospital security guards, also rushed over.
And then, they witnessed a scene that would be unforgettable for the rest of their lives:
In the VIP ward, a critically ill patient in her late seventies, who had just come out of the emergency room, was beating up several thugs, leaving them rolling on the ground in pain.
"Grandma?"
At this moment, Chen Yuxi also returned after paying the bills, looking unbelievably at her grandmother, who had one foot on the scar-faced man's back.
"My illness seems to be... cured!"
"And my body is even better than before. Yuxi, Grandma can finally see your appearance clearly!"
"You're so beautiful, you'll definitely be a great beauty when you grow up. You've worked hard taking care of Grandma all this time!"
"Grandma feels like she's gotten younger. She can live at least another 30 years. I will definitely take good care of you, watch Yuxi grow up and get married. Then I can help you with your children, and I'll have a great-granddaughter!"
Dong Guizhi scooped Chen Yuxi up in her arms.
She even tossed Chen Yuxi high into the air and caught her steadily.
Just watching this move, the security guards felt a dull ache in their lower backs.
This old lady was completely a fitness coach disguised as an old lady!
In a corner of the crowd, Zhang Mo lightly covered his forehead, his expression embarrassed: "Oh no, I didn't control the energy well. It seems like I made Grandma's body a little too healthy!"
