"It's so rude. Didn't she never teach you to use honorifics when talking to your elders?" Chu's mother was disgusted. When she thought of Lin Xiangwan's blood on Ye Nan's body, she felt sick and uncomfortable. If not
Chu Di doesn't have any other children right now, so she won't spend so much time entangled with this kid.
"You are a bad person! I ignore you! You said bad things about mom, you are a big bad person!!" Ye Nan screamed and ran behind the flowers. There was a small stone platform where gardeners usually put their tools. He shrank up.
, hid under the stone platform, and decided not to come out until he saw Lin Xiangwan. Chu's mother sent people to catch him, but the place was too small, and Ye Nan was very flexible, so several bodyguards went over and pounced on him.
Several times, all failed.
"Hmph, it doesn't matter if you don't want to come out, but if you can, never come out! Don't give him food, and don't give him water! I think he's too hungry and thirsty to come out!" Mother Chu ordered.
, leaving a few bodyguards to guard Ye Nan while she went back to her room to rest.
Ye Nan hid in the corner. At first, he could still look around vigilantly. Whenever the bodyguard made any move, he tried to shrink himself smaller. But later, tired and hungry, he finally lost it.
The ability to resist gradually faded away.
When Lin Xiangwan arrived at the Chu family's old house, it was almost four o'clock in the morning. This was the darkest time of the day. The moonlight and starlight were extinguished, and the dawn was still in the unknown distance.
She got out of the taxi and before she reached the gate, the door opened.
Lin Xiangwan followed the silent maid to the main room.
Sitting on a fabric sofa covered with Victorian patterns, she was on pins and needles. Chu's mother refused to come out to see her. She didn't know what was wrong with Ye Nan. She wanted to rush in to find Ye Nan, but standing beside her was black.
The iron-tower-like bodyguard told her that if she dared to shout loudly or do anything detrimental to Chu's mother, then she would never want to see her son again.
So she could only endure, endure, the painful suffering. Her heart felt like it was being put in a frying pan, and life was worse than death.
It wasn't until the first rays of the morning sun shone through the window, and until the early birds sang their cheerful cries, that she saw Chu's mother appearing in front of her in all her glory.
Lin Xiangwan could hardly stand up. The night's suffering had left her legs paralyzed and her whole body stiff. Her face was as pale as a trace of blood. She was now like a paper doll, and would fall down if blown by the wind.
The only thing she could hold on to was one belief. She wanted to find Ye Nan and see that Ye Nan was fine. She could not fall until he was safe.
"Where is Ye Nan? Where is he? I'm here, let Ye Nan go." Lin Xiangwan said to Chu's mother word by word. She said each word with great force, as if she wanted to say something.
It's like biting something to pieces.
Chu's mother combed her meticulously combed hair with her hands and said, "Ye Nan is very good here. I just invited you to come, but I didn't promise you. Once you come, I will let him go."
"What do you want?!"
"I want the children of the Chu family to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan. Don't you want to do that, Miss Lin? Oh, by the way, you really don't want to. If you did, Chu Di wouldn't put on such a good show for me."
As Chu's mother spoke, she came to the window in a wheelchair. The morning sun was warm and golden, and her whole body was illuminated with a golden light. Compared with Lin Xiangwan's embarrassment, Chu's mother looked like an all-female woman.
She is a model with perfect makeup and outstanding temperament. She caressed her right hand, and the huge emerald ring on her finger showed an extremely beautiful light under the sunlight.
"That was his own decision. I didn't ask him to do anything. Chu Di didn't want to keep Ye Nan at the beginning. I lied to him. This matter has nothing to do with Ye Nan. If it is said that someone must be responsible for it,
If you are angry, then just come to me, Mrs. Chu, I beg you, don't touch Ye Nan." Lin Xiangwan said, slowly stood up, then took two steps forward and knelt behind Chu's mother.
For Ye Nan, Lin Xiangwan could give up all his pride and dignity. If there is anything worth holding on to in this world, it would be Ye Nan.
Chu's mother turned around and glanced at her with a sneer, "Ms. Lin, what do you mean by this? It seems like I'm forcing you to do something. In fact, I should thank you for allowing me to have some hope after being extremely disappointed.
Comfort is better than nothing... I know it was not you who asked Chu Di to find someone to lie to me, otherwise you would not be here now, but... Miss Lin, you are also a mother. If one day, your son
, what would you do if he deceived you because of a woman? You didn’t ask him to do anything, and he was already willing to go through fire and water for you. If one day, you asked him to do something, for example, because of what happened back then,
, suddenly she doesn’t like me..." Chu’s mother said, laughing softly, "Then I, an old woman, can’t even sleep well?"
"Mrs. Chu, you are serious. In Chu Di's heart, you are the most important person to her, and he will not hurt you for anyone. And..." Lin Xiangwan gritted his teeth and said, "What happened back then,
You have almost forgotten."
"Oh? Really?" Chu's mother showed a surprised expression, "I thought you would always be brooding over your father's death."
"No...no...my father passed away because of poor health. I also asked the forensic doctor to do an autopsy at that time. He died of a normal death..." Lin Xiangwan said these insincere words and felt like in his heart
It was being torn back and forth by a rusty saw.
"So that's it... No wonder I'm still thinking about how you left here." Chu's mother suddenly realized, but then she leaned down and continued in Lin Xiangwan's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
, "Ms. Lin, do you know that there is a medicine that has just been launched in the past two years, called Lufenmian?"
"Luosha Xingfenmi'an?" Lin Xiangwan was puzzled. She didn't know why Chu's mother suddenly mentioned this medicine as she was talking.
"Ah, yes, that's the name. It's really hard to pronounce. I'm old and can't remember these strange names. But it's really a good medicine. Although it's just been launched, it's selling very well. Miss Lin,
Don’t you know, this drug was actually funded and developed by the Chu family. The hospital where your father lived at that time was the clinical base of this drug. By the way, what is this drug used for? Muscle relaxation? "
Lin Xiangwan's heart made a loud noise with Chu's mother's words, and the past rushed towards her crazily like a bursting tide. She suddenly thought of an extremely terrifying possibility. She widened her eyes and asked
, "You mean...you mean my father..."
"Yeah, that's what I mean. Chu Di, this kid, still had some tricks back then. He's not as soft-hearted and procrastinating in everything he does now. When Chu Di said he wanted to use that medicine on your father, I was still worried.
It will be seen by you. After all, you are also a medical student. This kind of thing is only for laymen to watch, and for experts to see the door. If you find out, the Chu family doesn’t know what kind of trouble they will get into. But Chu Di said it’s okay. Originally
It’s just a new drug, and the dosage is not large. Even if you really go and check it, you won’t find anything..."
"No!!! No!!! No!!!" Lin Xiangwan covered her ears with her hands. Chu's mother's words one after another were like sharp swords piercing her eardrums, rushing down her ear canals.
It penetrated her body and stabbed her to pieces.
Why did the autopsy later find no abnormalities in Ye Zhong's death? If there is a drug that does not exist in the world and has not been produced at all, who can guess what effects and residues it will have? Ye Zhong did die suddenly.
He had a heart attack, but if it weren't for the long-term injection of muscle relaxants, he might still be able to call for help when he got sick, or he might be able to take self-rescue measures, but...
They made everything that might have been possible impossible.
Lin Xiangwan seemed to see his old father. He was lying alone on the hospital bed, convulsing in pain. He wanted to press the call for help less than half a meter away from him. As long as he pressed the red
A small button and he can survive.
However, his body did not obey his command at all at this moment. He could only wait in pain, feeling the pain of his heart being completely crushed and the blood flowing backward, until the shadow of death completely enveloped him.
Her poor old father... died inexplicably in a conspiracy carefully laid out by others...
And she.
Lin Xiangwan suddenly stopped shouting, and looked out the window with dull eyes. Just a few hours ago, she was with Chu Di. Just a dozen hours ago, they were still rubbing each other's ears, and he was still holding her in his arms.
Tell her, give me another child.
How could she be so stupid, how could she be so mean, how could she trust him so much...
She hated, not others, but herself. She wished she could take a knife to cut herself open right now, and then completely wash away the stains that belonged to him.
Lin Xiangwan's calmness surprised Chu's mother. For a moment, she even thought that this woman was crazy because she could not bear such a heavy reality.
But after a moment of silence, Lin Xiangwan turned his eyes back to Chu's mother again. When Chu's mother met her eyes, she couldn't help but shudder.
What a pair of eyes they were, there was no light in the amber color, just like the darkest hour before dawn, but she could never wait for the moment when the sun rose.
"You tell me this, if you just want me to leave Chu Di, then you are trying too hard. For me, his existence is just an accident. If you don't want me to appear next to him, I will take him with you right away.
Ye Nan leaves this city and will never appear in front of you again, Mrs. Chu, is this okay?" Her voice was as calm as a thousand-year-old well, unfathomable.
