Now they are telling me to pay the hospital bills, so their purpose in deceiving me with so much effort is probably self-evident.
That means they want to take advantage of themselves.
"Don't worry, Mom, I think my brother should have paid the hospital bills for these few days long ago.
If my brother is short on money and can't come up with anything for the time being, I'll cover it for him as long as he asks."
When Mother Qin heard this, she became a little anxious and angry:
"Oh, my dear, do you really have to wait for your brother to pay? Why don't you just go and pay the hospital bill directly? It would be best if you could pay for one or two months at a time. That way, even if something happens and you leave later, you'll have peace of mind, right?"
Seeing this, Qin Wan quickly patted Qin's mother's shoulder gently, with a faint smile on his face, and comforted her:
"Mom, please don't get involved in this. Ultimately, this is a problem that my brother and I should discuss and resolve, so don't worry about it.
We are siblings, even if our bones are broken, we are still connected! If something happens to you, isn't that a big thing that we both need to face and deal with together?
So, just focus on arranging the payment details and let us handle the rest."
In fact, Qin Wan knew very well that this old woman wanted to spend more money and at the same time wanted her precious son to have a good reputation as a filial son in the eyes of others.
Humph, she would not grant the old woman's wish so easily!
Two days passed, and Qin Wan arrived at her workstation as usual to take over her shift. However, to her surprise, the only person who came to take over her shift was her younger sister, Qin Jing.
Qin Wan looked at Qin Jing with doubts in his heart, and couldn't help asking:
"Where's Qin Ruanruan? Why can't I see her? I haven't seen her in the past two days."
Qin Jing's originally calm face now looked particularly solemn. He lowered his head slightly, sighed softly, then slowly raised his head and answered in a low and slightly hoarse voice:
"She's missing. Last time we left your house, we were supposed to take the train back home together, according to our original plan.
At first, everything was normal. Everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious. But who could have imagined that, while the train was moving, without any warning, Qin Ruanruan suddenly disappeared without a trace!
We were so scared that we searched all over the train car for her, searching every corner, even under the seats and on top of the luggage racks.
We also hurriedly contacted the train crew and asked them to help search for her, but unfortunately, we found nothing. In desperation, we had no choice but to call the police and contact organizations that specialize in combating human traffickers, hoping to find Qin Ruanruan with their help as soon as possible.
But until now, there has been no news about her..."
Qin Wan listened to Qin Jing's words quietly, and was stunned for a moment, as if time had frozen at this moment. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but found that her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and she couldn't make a sound.
An indescribable complex emotion surged in my heart.
To be honest, I am not as happy as I imagined. To be honest, I am not happy, but the revenge of the original owner has been avenged.
Qin Jing silently looked at Qin Wan who was silent in front of her. Her furrowed brows and dull eyes all revealed the knot in her heart that had not yet been untied.
Her thoughts involuntarily drifted back to what had happened in the past. Even Qin Jing herself had to admit that what her mother and Qin Ruanruan did at that time was indeed a bit too much.
Not to mention that the stubborn second sister would be extremely angry about this, even if anyone else was in such a situation, they would probably be furious!
"Wanwan..."
Qin Jing sighed softly, then spoke softly,
"I know you must be feeling incredibly upset right now. Looking back on what happened back then, what Mom and Ruanruan did was truly wrong. How could they force you like that? They even tried to take away the job that was yours."
As she spoke, Qin Jing's tone revealed a hint of apology and deep helplessness.
After hearing his brother's words, Qin Wan finally raised his head and turned his gaze to Qin Jing.
An indescribable complex emotion flashed across her eyes. Then, she took a deep breath, as if trying to calm the surging emotions in her heart, and then she slowly said:
"Brother, let the past be the past. I have my own job now and live a pretty good life. Compared to them, my life is not worse than theirs, so this is enough."
After hearing this, Qin Jing nodded slightly, indicating that she agreed with what her sister said.
"I naturally know that you have always had your own unique pursuits and ideas. Perhaps Mom and Ruanruan can't truly understand you, but please believe that no matter when and where, I will always stand by you and support you.
After all, we are blood-thicker-than-water siblings, and we are a loving family!"
"Brother, tell me the truth, is Mom really critically ill?"
Qin Jing widened her eyes and stared at her brother, her face full of disbelief and anxiety.
Hearing his sister's question, Qin Jing suddenly became a little embarrassed. His face flushed instantly, and after hesitating for a moment, he stammered:
"Well...actually, two days ago, if I didn't send you a telegram, Mom would have gone on a hunger strike! I really had no choice, so I sent it to you."
After hearing this, Qin Wan frowned and said with a look of dissatisfaction on his face:
"Brother, you've spoiled our mom too much! She always cries, makes a scene, and even threatens to commit suicide. How could you let her control you like this? You have no principles at all!"
After a pause, Qin Wan sighed and said:
"But now that I'm here, I won't say much else. As you know, your brother-in-law is very busy at work, and he has four children to take care of at home. I can't spare any time.
Since Mom isn't seriously ill, I'd better hurry back. I'll leave you 100 yuan this time. You can either find someone to take care of her, or you can do it yourself.
Anyway, no matter what, don't let the old lady cause any more trouble."
After saying this, Qin Wan took out a hundred-dollar bill from his pocket and handed it to Qin Jing.
