I'm My Ex's Mother-in-Law

At my ex-boyfriend's engagement banquet, I appeared in full attire. He thought I was there to cause trouble, but I smiled very kindly and said, "We'll all be family from now on, no need...

Chapter 969: Things that can be solved with money are the simplest things

It was not until he finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep with his little hands still unconsciously resting on Ultraman that Wang Jiayou's parents gently stood up.

"Uncle, aunt, and Jiayou, thank you so much.

Xiaoxuan is very, very happy today. I haven’t seen him so energetic in a long time.

Thank you for coming all the way here.”

Wang Jiayou's mother's eyes instantly turned red. She quickly wiped the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, her voice choked with sobs: "Don't say that. Seeing this child so sensible and so seriously ill, my heart... is really worried.

He’s still so young…” She couldn’t continue and pursed her lips tightly.

Wang Jiayou's father also sighed, patted his wife's shoulder gently, and said to me, "It's a pity that we are too far away, and we don't pay much attention to the news of our child's former classmates.

If I had known earlier... I should have let the children come to see him.

If we can help in this small way, we will feel better.”

"That's really enough," I said sincerely, "For Xuanxuan, being able to see Jiayou, chat with him, and share his favorite things is the greatest satisfaction for him.

This kind of thought is more important than anything else."

"Sister, will Xia Yixuan die? This hospital is so advanced, they can cure him, right?" Wang Jiayou looked at Ming Chenggang and me eagerly.

Ming Chenggang felt a little uncomfortable when he saw his little look. "All of us doctors will do our best to cure him. Let's all wish him a speedy recovery, okay?"

Wang Jiayou nodded vigorously, "I will come to see him next time!"

After seeing them off, the ward returned to silence, leaving only Xia Yixuan's faint breathing and the regular ticking of the monitor.

Xiao Yang quickly sent me a message saying that someone had sent the family back home and asked me not to worry.

I then called my mother and told her the truth about Ye Qiwen and Xia Yixuan.

After hearing this, my mother was silent for a long time. Finally, she said slowly, "What a pity! That child could have been saved. This is really a sin for the parents."

I couldn't say anything about this, so I had to change the subject, "How is my dad now?"

"He recovered better than expected, and his life was saved. As for recovery... we'll take care of him slowly in the future."

I understand what my mother means. No matter what, as long as I survive, it's good.

After temporarily putting my mind at ease, I began to worry about Fang Dongmei's situation again.

After getting in the car, I didn't go home, but drove directly to the action center.

In the monitoring room, everyone except Wen Congwu was there. The huge screen no longer displayed a single map, but was divided into several screens: a real-time updated satellite map, a monitoring perspective of a city block, and several data windows with complex parameters jumping around.

Luo Yong was wearing headphones and whispering something into the microphone with a serious and focused expression.

After he finished the call and took off his headphones, I greeted him, "Brother Luo, how are Captain Wen and the others doing?"

The satellite image of the area around the Avar training base on the screen was enlarged, and several inconspicuous light spots were moving.

"We have successfully reunited," Luo Yong said concisely, "The mercenary team that President Xiao hired is experienced and very familiar with the local environment.

Team Wen is now resting in the safe house, replenishing their equipment, and receiving the latest intelligence."

"When do they plan to take action?" My voice was a little anxious. I was hoping that they would end the battle quickly and decisively. I was always worried about them if they kept dragging it out.

“It’s not certain yet, we need to wait for the most appropriate opportunity.

Timing is everything in this kind of operation; there is no set timetable, only a moment to stand by.”

It seems I have to continue worrying about Fang Dongmei. "Can you notify me before the operation? I want to come to the monitoring room to watch. Waiting for news at home is too painful."

Xu Wenjie joked, "How about having Captain Wen do a live broadcast while he's on the move? It'll definitely increase his followers!"

Luo Yong glared at him, and Xu Wenjie curled his lips and calmed down.

"There will be intense firefights and possibly gory scenes during the action, so I guess it's not suitable for you.

You should wait at home. I will tell you the result when the time comes. What if I scare you to death and Mr. Xiao stops sponsoring us? "Luo Yong said seriously.

I crossed my arms and threatened him, “If you don’t notify me, the sponsorship will be cancelled next time. I’m Mrs. Xiao now.”

Mrs. Xiao's identity is still very useful, at least it made Luo Yong change his mind.

After getting the confirmation, I went home with peace of mind.

In the next few days, I kept traveling back and forth between City T and City A. Although the distance was not far, I felt exhausted.

I originally planned to visit him only once to provide some humanitarian comfort, but every time I saw Xia Yixuan's joy when he saw me, I insisted on visiting him once a day.

"Oh, it would be great if my dad and Xia Yixuan were hospitalized together. That would save me so much worry." I complained to Xiao Shiqiu.

This was not a big deal in his eyes. "Then why not just bring your dad over?"

I was so moved that I asked my mother, but she rejected my idea outright, "If you want your father to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair, let him do it."

Forget it, just torture me, I’m tough!

Xia Yixuan is getting weaker day by day. I know there is nothing I can do to save him, but I still can't help feeling sad.

Sometimes I wish he were a bad-tempered kid, so I could hate him with a clear conscience and at most just pay his medical bills without having to worry about him so much.

But he is a simple, sensible and beautiful child. I even imagine what he will look like when he grows up, and how many girls he will charm.

When he asked me about his parents and saw my embarrassed look, he never mentioned it again.

He is so sensible that it makes me feel distressed.

I asked Su Yi privately if there was any way to pay people to donate a kidney.

Su Yi told me regretfully that his body could no longer withstand such an operation.

Now it's not just a kidney problem, other organs are also slowly failing. All they can do now is to prolong his life and reduce his pain.

I now deeply understand what Xiao Shiqiu said, things that can be solved with money are the simplest things.

Compared to Xia Yixuan's passing, my father's condition is getting better day by day.

Just when I was struggling over whether to discuss with my mother and when to tell him the truth about the car accident, Captain Feng found me first.

"Mrs. Xiao, your father is the victim in this case, so we need him to cooperate in recording his statement. The doctor said that he is in good condition to be questioned.

I would like to ask for your opinion on what time would be appropriate."
