Huo Zhendong, who was making a phone call outside, entered the room. "What's going on?" He looked at Bai Yan suspiciously, then went to hug his crying daughter while also addressing his emotionally agitated wife.

“Heartfelt…”

"Who is Sister Li?!" Bai Xinmo's eyes were bloodshot, and her voice was hoarse with extreme grievance and anger: "I'm not dead yet, and someone has already replaced me?"

"Zhendong, you said you'd always love me?" Her voice trembled. "Were all those promises just lies?"

Huo Zhendong covered his head, a fleeting moment of guilt followed by annoyance: "It's Li Xinyi, the student you sponsored before. She knows you're in the hospital and not in good health, and that Jiaojiao has no one to take care of her, so she said she'd come to be our family's nanny to take care of Jiaojiao in order to repay you."

Bai Xinmo bit her lip: "Repay me? Does she want to repay me or take everything from me? Did you hear what Jiaojiao said, that she'd be my stepmother after I die?!"

"Xinmo, don't always overthink things."

"Jiaojiao saying that proves that she usually treats Jiaojiao very well. Shouldn't you be happy?"

"Cough cough..." Bai Xinmo almost coughed up blood.

"Xinmo, are you alright? Don't scare me!" Huo Zhendong rushed forward.

Bai Xinmo struggled to lift her pale face, her words becoming incoherent: "Fire...fire her! Don't...don't let her go to the Huo family!"

Seeing her barely breathing, Huo Zhendong was frightened: "Alright, alright, I promise you everything!"

Bai Xinmo: "Did you... have anything to do with her...?"

"I swear!" Huo Zhendong said, "If I have anything going on with her, may I be punished with a terrible death!"

Bai Xinmo reached out and covered his mouth, trembling as she said, "Don't say it, don't say it like that."
