Looking at Su Lin's increasingly ferocious face, Ning You felt only disbelief.
"Even now, do you still not realize your mistakes? Have you forgotten all the harm you caused Wanwan?"
"What did we do wrong? What did we do wrong?" Su Lin retorted, "Which parents don't hit their children when they were young? We raised you with so much hardship, changing your diapers and feeding you, and now it's all our fault?"
"Look at you two sisters. Now one of you is with the Lu family and the other with the Shen family. You'll have plenty of good days ahead of you, so why can't you take care of your own family and your parents?"
Hearing Su Lin's words, Ning You laughed instead of getting angry: "So you think that we are lucky enough to marry into the Lu family and the Shen family? It's a blessing we've accumulated over several lifetimes?"
"Otherwise what?" Su Lin retorted, "If I hadn't carefully nurtured you since you were little, do you think Lu Chen would have even looked at you?"
"If I weren't so old, I could also..."
"Shameless!" Ning You clenched her fists, trembling with anger.
She opened the door to the room, not wanting to look at Su Lin again: "Get out! If you ever show your face in front of me and Wanwan again, I will never let you off the hook!"
Seeing that she had angered Ning You, Su Lin finally realized the purpose of her trip.
She quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "Youyou, it's Mommy's fault, Mommy just..."
"roll!"
Seeing Ning You's undisguised disgust, Su Lin gritted her teeth in anger: "Fine, fine, so this is how you all treat me. Ning You, you have no conscience at all!"
He had already humbled himself so much to beg her, yet she still humiliated him like this.
"You just wait, if I don't have a good time, none of you will have a good time either!" After saying this harshly, Su Lin left indignantly.
Ning You leaned weakly against the door, slowly sliding down to the floor: "Why...why would anyone be so selfish?"
Lu Chen slowly walked over from the other side of the corridor.
He crouched down and gently placed his hand on Ning You's shoulder: "Human nature is inherently complex, this is not your fault."
“Not all parents love their children, and not everyone is qualified to be a parent,” Lu Chen said. “Actually, sometimes I wish Youyou could be a little selfish.”
"Don't live for anyone else, and don't make decisions out of guilt. There is no law that says children have to love their parents."
"You can be a little selfish, you can think more about yourself. Live the life you want, experience the life that belongs to you. Don't be tied down or troubled by anyone, not as a wife or a mother, just yourself."
"Lu Chen, you..."
Lu Chen's words sent a shiver down Ning You's spine.
She involuntarily gripped his sleeve tightly: "Do you know something?"
"Know what?" Lu Chen asked knowingly. "I'm sorry, but I didn't go through your drawer on purpose, nor did I see that study abroad application letter on purpose."
Upon hearing about the study abroad application, Ning You actually breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought he had discovered her rebirth...
Ning You lowered her head and said weakly, "...I haven't decided whether I want to go or not."
Once you go abroad to study, the time you're away can range from a few months to several years.
She was worried about An'an, and even more worried about Ning Wan.
"Do you remember what I said before?" Lu Chen leaned down and gently kissed her forehead: "With me, you will never need to have any worries. Do whatever you want to do, and leave the rest to me."
Lu Chen could sense that Ning You felt a great deal of guilt towards her family. He had long wanted to take her out for a walk.
“The Lu family recently signed a multinational cooperation agreement. I happen to be planning to go to Little Life Country to investigate the market.” Lu Chen arranged everything in an orderly manner: “An’an can be entrusted to Mom and Grandpa’s care. If Youyou is worried, we can also take her with us to Little Life Country.”
Ning You was silent for a moment, then asked, "What about Wanwan?"
From childhood to adulthood, Ning You could only do a handful of things for Ning Wan. She couldn't possibly abandon her now.
“It will take some time to process the paperwork for going abroad, so there’s plenty of time to deal with this matter now,” Lu Chen comforted her. “Ning Wan is an independent and strong person, and besides, she has Shen Fu by her side. I know Shen Fu’s character. With him around, no one will dare to bully Ning Wan.”
Lu Chen was very considerate, taking into account every aspect of Ning You's needs.
The anxiety that had been weighing on her heart slowly subsided, and Ning You hugged Lu Chen tightly: "Thank you~"
Lu Chen said gently, "Between husband and wife, there is no need for thanks."
"But I still want to thank you."
Lu Chen chuckled for a moment, and asked softly, "Alright, what would Youyou like to thank me for?"
Ning You looked into his deep eyes and said with a serious expression, "Thank you for choosing me to be your family."
Your family of origin is a fact that you cannot change from the time you are born.
But marriage is the only opportunity you can personally choose your family.
Ning You was glad that she hadn't made the wrong choice back then.
Now, her family has given her enough courage and determination to make a change!
...
Grandma Chen regained consciousness the day after the surgery.
Although the hospital equipment showed that Grandma Chen's vital signs were gradually returning to normal, this ordeal nearly took her life.
After learning that Grandma Chen had woken up, Ning Yanshu and Wang Zihao insisted on visiting her.
After observing and confirming that Grandma Chen was in good health, Ning Wan finally agreed to their request on the fourth day.
The two little ones, one on the left and one on the right, stood around Grandma Chen's hospital bed, apologizing.
"Grandma, I'm sorry. It's all my fault..."
Wang Zihao rarely cries.
This time, he was truly terrified.
"I'm the one who should apologize." Ning Yanshu's eyes were also red. "It's Xiaoshu's fault."
Grandma Chen smiled.
She raised her hand with some difficulty and stroked their little heads, saying, "Grandma doesn't blame you, Grandma isn't angry. Grandma is so happy to see you safe and sound~"
"But you can't do such dangerous things anymore. Mom and Dad will be scared..."
The children nodded and solemnly promised.
After staying in the ward for a while, Wang Jun took the two children back home first.
Ning Wan stayed behind to take care of Grandma Chen.
She went to the boiler room to get a kettle of hot water, and when she returned to the ward, Grandma Chen was sitting up, staring blankly out the window.
The view outside the window is really beautiful.
Green leaves covered the branches, and small pink flowers bloomed. Birds would occasionally perch on them, affectionately preening each other's feathers.
Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the branches, dappling the windowpane.
Like a dazzling gemstone, it shines brilliantly.
Grandma Chen murmured, "Spring is almost over..."
