Ning Yichu's tense emotions almost broke down at this moment.
The sour feeling at the tip of my nose spread like an ink dot in the water, and I couldn't help but hug my mother tightly.
"No, I left my school uniform in the classroom. I just need to put it on tomorrow."
Ning's mother was stunned.
A moment of clarity appeared in the originally cloudy eyes.
"Chuchu, Mom's health isn't good. I've made you laugh at other students and held you back. But Mom will do her best and listen to the doctor. I'll try to recover soon so you can attend your parents' meeting in good health! So..."
With a complicated expression, he touched her back and said, "When I am confused and can't take care of you, you must take good care of yourself and your body. Don't let yourself get wronged, otherwise mom will be really, really sad."
Ning Yichu's eyes couldn't help but turn red where she couldn't see.
But he still tried his best to maintain his composure, "Mom, don't worry, your daughter is very powerful now, no one dares to bully me..."
"That's good. Don't let others bully you, but you are not allowed to bully others either!"
Ning's mother began to explain in a mumbling manner.
Ning Yichu nodded and listened to her teachings with great patience.
The night outside is getting deeper.
Ning Yichu coaxed his mother to sleep, tucked in the quilt for her, and then walked out.
"Doctor Zhang, thank you for taking care of my mother while I'm away. If you need anything, just give me a call. By the way, is it time to pay this quarter's treatment and hospitalization fees?"
It just so happened that she was here today, so I just did it all at once.
The attending physician paused briefly before answering truthfully, "No need, Miss Ning. The last time Special Assistant Xu came, he paid all of your mother's expenses for the next three years in full, as instructed by Mr. Li. You don't need to worry about this anymore."
“???” Ning Yichu was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Li Lingyang not only replaced the hospital's equipment and found a doctor for his mother, but also paid all the fees...
After chatting with the attending physician for a while, I walked out of the mental hospital with mixed feelings.
It may be that today’s mother’s memory is stuck in middle school;
So her thoughts were also pulled back, and she couldn't help but think of the time when she was bullied...
If the Shen Jiangqing incident had not happened five years ago, perhaps their current ending would really be different.
Looking at the friends in the VX list, after hesitating for a few seconds, he finally typed a string of words.
"Um...thank you for my mom's matter. I'll transfer the total amount you spent to you!"
However, there was no reply from the other end...
It’s so late, he must have gone to bed a long time ago.
Ning Yichu was about to put the phone away, but the next second, Li Lingyang's voice call popped up.
The ringing sound kept lingering in my ears, and my mood seemed to change slightly. After hesitating for a few seconds, I picked up the phone.
"What's wrong?"
This woman, how dare she ask him what's wrong?
Li Lingyang had just come out of the shower when he saw her message about wanting to pay back the money and draw a clear line between them, and his heart suddenly felt blocked.
His face was as cold as ice. "Ning Yichu, have you forgotten that your mother is also my mother? These are things that I, as a son-in-law, should do!"
“…” He is good at flattering himself!
Ning Yichu was speechless. As he walked, he said, "Li Lingyang, how many times do you need me to remind you that we are divorced? What kind of son-in-law are you? Besides..."
She snorted and complained, "Why didn't I see you being so attentive when we were married before!"
It's not like she doesn't know how to make money, so why does she need his belated concern?
Li Lingyang thought of the 'good things' he had done in the past, and the expression on his face changed slightly.
Her white bathrobe opened slightly as she sat directly on the sofa. She answered as a matter of course, "Precisely because things are different now, I want to make amends and do more for Mom. When you go over today, how is Mom's condition?"
Ning Yichu's eyelids twitched violently, "Li Lingyang, do you have any shame? That's my mother, what does it have to do with you!"
Li Lingyang could imagine her furious expression even through the phone, and couldn't help but smile.
"We have two children, and the bond between us isn't something you can just say it's okay. And I sincerely hope Mom can recover soon so she can enjoy the joy of family."
Ning Yichu's teeth itched, "Thank you so much."
"I'm doing this for Mom's own good. If there's anything they need help with, please feel free to ask. I've also sent Special Assistant Xu to look for effective neurological medication these past few days to see if it can help Mom fully recover."
When it comes to his mother, Ning Yichu's heart can't help but soften.
"My mother's condition is quite complicated. It's not like she can recover easily. Anyway, for this matter...thank you."
The last sentence was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
His face was filled with discomfort.
The curve on Li Lingyang's thin lips deepened, "I didn't hear what you said."
"Didn't you listen to the reckoning?" Ning Yichu just couldn't tolerate his bad habit.
"It's getting late. I need to go home. I'm hanging up now..."
"You're still in the hospital?!"
When Li Lingyang heard this, his handsome face suddenly changed, and he immediately realized that she had just gone there at this time.
"No," Ning Yichu glanced at the hospital building and curled his lips, "I left a long time ago. I'm only a few steps away from returning."
It is better to have less trouble than more.
How could Li Lingyang not understand her?
She clearly doesn't want to see me!
Looking at the time when the text message was sent, it seems that the person just came out of the hospital...
"Just stand there and wait for me!"
"Why—"
Before he could finish his words, the other end of the line had already hung up and the screen went dark.
Three black lines appeared on Ning Yichu's face. It was the middle of the night, this guy must be crazy!
He took a step forward and hurriedly hailed a taxi on the side of the road.
But God seemed to be against her. She kept hitting the ground for a long time but didn't see a taxi.
In fact, it is normal here in the mental hospital.
After all, it's far from the city and a bit remote, so few people would come here to solicit customers...
Ning Yichu planned to walk to the intersection behind to take a taxi.
When she was about to arrive, suddenly, a cool white Tesla stopped next to her!
The black car window rolled down, and Li Lingyang's stern face appeared in his sight. He said in a deep voice, "Didn't I tell you to wait for me here?"
"How do you know my location?" Ning Yichu was shocked.
"I guessed it," Li Lingyang raised his eyebrows, slowly curled his thin lips, and smiled arrogantly, "It's cold today, hurry up and get in the car!"
Ning Yichu pursed her lips, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
A free driver, don’t waste it!
