Inside the ward,
Upon seeing Zhou Na suddenly appear, Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan's brains went blank for a full five seconds.
They never expected Zhou Na to suddenly appear.
So, upon first seeing Zhou Na, both of them were at a loss and instinctively exclaimed in surprise.
Zhou Na stood silently in front of the two hospital beds, her eyes fixed on Zhou Ling.
Zhou Ling realized that it was probably Uncle Hat who contacted Zhou Na, and Zhou Na should know about their kidnapping, so she rushed over.
Thinking about how she had dumped Zhao Xiaoya on Zhou Na and then disappeared, Zhou Ling knew that Zhou Na must be furious at this moment. She didn't dare to look Zhou Na in the eye, afraid that Zhou Na's anger would burst forth.
But they had no choice but to bite the bullet and face it all.
So, Zhou Ling forced a stiff, fake smile and deliberately brought up the kidnapping to win Zhou Na's sympathy. "Second sister, although those bandits captured us, we are not in any danger. You don't need to worry about us."
Zhou Na had no idea that the two had been kidnapped. Listening to Zhou Ling talk about these things, she had no interest in them and didn't want to know anything.
Compared to these trivial details, she only wants to ask one question now.
"Zhou Ling, you dumped your own child on me and ran away. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Zhou Na spoke up.
Zhou Ling opened her mouth, but was speechless. Sure enough, Zhou Na had come to interrogate her.
But she couldn't just say what was on her mind, because that would only further enrage Zhou Na.
Little did she know that her silence would only make Zhou Na angrier.
"Xiaoya is your daughter, how can you be so heartless? You don't even want your own daughter, are you even human?"
Instead of helping your daughter raise money for surgery, you dumped her on me, leaving me to suffer the psychological torment. You don't deserve to be a mother; someone like you doesn't deserve to have children.
Every word Zhou Na said was like a fine needle piercing Zhou Ling's heart.
Zhou Ling's face grew increasingly pale.
Knowing she was in the wrong, she was powerless to refute.
Because, in this matter, she really did something wrong.
"Second sister..."
Zhou Chuan stood to the side, wanting to speak up and offer some advice.
"Shut up, you have no right to speak here."
Zhou Na's icy gaze instantly made Zhou Chuan shrink back in fear.
“You stood with your third sister and lied to me together. You betrayed my kindness to you and you have disappointed me greatly.”
Zhou Na coldly glanced at Zhou Chuan, and upon hearing these words, Zhou Chuan quickly explained, "Second sister, it's not what you think, you've misunderstood, I..."
"You were spying on me with Zhou Ling, how did I misunderstand you? What have I, Zhou Na, done to wrong you that you conspired with Zhou Ling to deceive me?"
This rebuke left Zhou Chuan speechless.
How did Zhou Na know that he and Zhou Ling were secretly spying on him?
When were they exposed?
Zhou Chuan's mind was in turmoil.
“Zhou Ling, Zhao Xiaoya is your daughter. I’m returning her to you now. I have no obligation to raise your daughter for you. Also, I hope you remember that from now on, our sisterly relationship is severed. You should never appear in front of me again. I don’t want to see you, and I don’t have a sister like you.”
Zhou Na looked at Zhou Ling again, placed Zhao Xiaoya on the bedside table, and at the same time uttered the harsh words of severing their sisterly bond.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling's expression changed again.
"Second sister, you..."
"And you, Zhou Chuan, you are no longer my brother."
"Never appear in my world again."
Zhou Na hated the two people in front of her with a passion. They were her closest relatives, yet they conspired to deceive her and secretly monitor her. If it weren't for that mysterious phone call that told her all this, she would still be in the dark.
We'd rather not have younger siblings like that.
While everyone is present, make things clear and don't bother me again.
Completely sever ties; there will be no more connection.
For some reason, Zhou Na couldn't help but think of Zhou Chen, and at the same time, she thought of the scene when Zhou Chen completely cut ties with the three siblings. Zhou Chen's feelings must be similar to hers now.
So this is what it feels like.
There was heartache, and there was relief...
That doesn't seem quite accurate either. Zhou Chen knew perfectly well that the three siblings weren't his biological brothers or sisters, so Zhou Chen's pain probably wasn't as intense as hers.
She was the one who was truly betrayed.
Not wanting to recall what had happened, Zhou Na immediately suppressed her thoughts, gave Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan another cold glance, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
From that moment on, she had no further connection with Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan.
From this day forward, she will be free to soar like a fish in the sea and a bird in the sky; no one can stop her from pursuing her own future.
Zhou Na clenched her fists and let out a long sigh.
However,
Just then,
A casual glance from her froze her expression, for she saw a face so familiar it was almost unrecognizable.
What...how did he get here?
That's right.
Zhou Na saw Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen didn't look away, but met Zhou Na's gaze in silence. The former brother and sister stared at each other silently.
Zhou Na finally realized something, looked away first, and then quickly fled.
Because she thought of what she had just said in the ward, and wondered if Zhou Chen, sitting in the corridor, might have heard it.
What are Zhou Chen's thoughts when he learns that she has severed ties with Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan?
They must be laughing at him, right?
Isn't she ridiculous?
When these thoughts popped into her mind, Zhou Na just wanted to disappear as quickly as possible. She was afraid of Zhou Chen's calm, seemingly indifferent gaze.
Only after leaving the hospital and glancing back to make sure Zhou Chen was no longer there did Zhou Na stop.
At this moment, she couldn't help but wonder why Zhou Chen was in the hospital, and coincidentally outside Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan's ward. Was it a coincidence?
impossible
There must be something she doesn't know. Also, what Zhou Ling said when she first entered the ward, something about kidnapping or something, what was that all about?
Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan's faces were swollen. What had they been through?
Zhou Na frowned in thought.
Also, who called her that mysterious phone call she suddenly received?
How did the other party know that Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan were secretly monitoring her?
Who would pay so much attention to her?
Could it be...?
Zhou Na suddenly thought of something.
If it were him, then all of this seems to make sense.
But why did he help her? Why did he tell her?
He still cares about her, about his former second sister?
Once this thought popped into my mind,
Zhou Na herself was startled.
She quickly shook her head, thinking it was impossible. But if it wasn't for that reason, what was it?
She couldn't understand it.
Only if he still considers her his sister and cherishes that sibling bond would he help her like this.
This left Zhou Na with mixed feelings.
