‘If that’s the case, then Xi Cheng already knows my secrets. Why did he only take Han Yuan away and didn’t come to confront me?’
Lin Yu’s legs gave out, and couldn’t keep her standing any longer. She sank to the floor on her knees and carefully protected her belly as she panted heavily.
Lily ran over and shouted in panic, “Young Madam! Young Madam! What’s wrong? What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Tell me what’s wrong. Don’t scare me like this!” Lily and two nurses following behind her helped Lin Yu up and into the ward.
Lin Yu fought back her discomfort, looked at the two nurses and asked, “Where’s my mother? Where did my mother go?”
One of the nurses softly and patiently answered as she helped her onto the bed, “Mrs. Xi went for an MRI scan on her head. The director personally came to pick her up. We ordered in new and more precise equipment that happen to be suitable for Mrs. Xi’s condition. The fact that Mrs. Xi hasn’t recovered yet has been chewing at the director so he’s decided to handle her case personally this time, stating that he’ll do his absolute best to treat Mrs. Xi.”
Lin Yu grabbed the young nurse’s wrist and yelled anxiously, “No, you guys can’t do that! How can the hospital director bring my mother to a checkup when we, her family members, aren’t there with her? Can you guys take the responsibility should anything happen?”
The two young nurses didn’t expect the usually gentle and amiable Lin Yu to suddenly be in such a temper and were a little intimidated. The other nurse quickly tried to reassure Lin Yu, “Don’t worry, nothing will go wrong. Rest assured, with our director personally supervising the situation, everything will be fine!”
The nurse Lin Yu was still holding onto also chimed in, “Calm down, ma’am! Relax! The director brought along quite a few doctors and nurses with him. All of them are our hospital’s elites. They’ll definitely ensure that Mrs. Xi will be fine! If things go well, Mrs. Xi might be able to speak when she comes back later!”
This last sentence angered Lin Yu completely. She slapped the nurse and snapped, “Who do you think you are, fooling me like this? My mother is Madam Xi of the Xi Corporation! What gives you the right to gossip about her?”
Lily was also intimidated by Lin Yu’s sudden anger and hurriedly came over to placate her, “Young Madam, there, there. Don’t be mad. Lie down and have a rest first. I’ll go and check on Madam immediately. I’ll personally bring her back after she’s done with the examination.” At a loss, the nurse held a hand to her slapped cheek as Lily spoke.
Lily promptly smiled and reassured Lin Yu, “Don’t worry, Young Madam. Madam will surely be fine. You need to take care of Little Master first so leave Madam’s matters to me. Don’t worry, everything will be fine.”
Lin Yu knew this wasn’t the time or place so she reined in her temper and let Lily help her lay her down on the hospital bed. Ignoring the nurses, she grabbed Lily’s hand and said, “Don’t worry about me. Go check on Mother. Don’t startle her. She’s prideful and strong-headed, so she would definitely hate being gawked at in a wheelchair. Take a scarf with you and cover her up on your way back.”
Lily readily agreed, picked up a scarf, and gestured for the young nurses to leave quickly with her. After everyone left, Lin Yu leaned against the pillow and gradually calmed down.
‘I can’t keep Han Yuan around anymore. She has to die. It’s just too risky letting her stay alive,’ Lin Yu decided. She turned her head to look at Han Yuan’s empty bed at the side and slowly reached under her bed to take out a small ampule holding a faint yellow liquid, the color so faint you could barely see it.
‘Han Yuan will die in her sleep tonight. Her life holds no value anymore,’ Lin Yu thought. She picked up her phone and made a call. It was picked up after two rings, and Lin Yu calmly uttered, “Everything’s ready on my side. You can make your move.”
There was a pause on the other end before they briskly answered, “Alright, as long as you’ve thought it through. I’m good to go any time on my end.”
Lin Yu’s hand holding her phone slowly slid down to hang limply as she stared into space in a daze, eyes empty. Her stomach felt a little too stretched taut—it was uncomfortable. Lin Yu quickly put her hand on her belly and said softly, “There’s nothing to worry about, my child. Calm down, take it easy. Mommy will have everything prepared and sorted out for you. I won’t let you suffer like Mommy did.”
‘My mother must’ve loved me like this once upon a time, right? She must’ve wanted all the best for me,’ Lin Yu mused. Unfortunately, her incompetent father and uncles couldn’t manage to hold onto their family wealth, and she fell from grace to grass. She had no choice but to extremely carefully hunker down and keep a low and humble profile in the best years of her youth. In order to survive, she curried favor with Han Yuan, thinking that Xi Cheng and the Xi family could give her a carefree life.
‘However, you can’t rely on anyone but yourself in this world,’ Lin Yu inwardly sighed. She was a little tired from today’s events and fell asleep before she knew it. She came to when she heard the sounds of a wheelchair and slowly opened her eyes, slightly muddleheadedly watching Lily push Han Yuan into the ward.
Lily excitedly informed her, “Young Madam, Madam’s check-ups are all done. The doctor says that Madam’s recovery is progressing well, she may recover her speech functions any time now, and advise us to talk more to Madam.”
