Zhong Wanwan and Su Ying were both taken aback. Why did Li Duo come at this time?
"Uncle, why are you here now?" Zhong Wanwan immediately made a gesture of supporting her waist, a standard posture for pregnant women, universally applicable.
Li Duo walked in from outside, glanced at Zhong Wanwan, and said, "Sit down."
Su Ying quickly helped Zhong Wanwan sit down, and then said, "You two chat, I'll go get you some water."
Pouring water was a pretense; her real intention was to avoid him. Su Ying was still somewhat afraid of Li Duo.
Only Li Duo and Zhong Wanwan remained in the living room. Zhong Wanwan glanced at him nervously and asked, "Uncle, is there something you need?"
Li Duo looked at the still steaming bird's nest soup on the table and said, "Eat it."
Zhong Wanwan obediently picked up the small bowl, ate what was inside, and carefully placed it on the table, saying, "Uncle, I'm done eating."
Li Duo sat opposite Zhong Wanwan and asked, "Do you still have any money?"
Zhong Wanwan was overjoyed, but immediately complained, "My dad has frozen all my bank cards, and I only have three thousand yuan on me. I wanted to buy a pair of shoes today, but Aunt Su gave them to me."
Li Duo nodded. Controlling her finances wasn't enough; he also needed to control Su Ying's side.
When was the video taken?
Zhong Wanwan was taken aback, then feigned ignorance: "What video?"
“Wanwan,” Li Duo said, “Your mother was a very kind person when she was alive, and I don’t want to disappoint her.”
Zhong Wanwan opened her mouth, "Uncle, what do you mean by that?"
“You know exactly what I mean. I’ve always felt that some things and some words don’t need to be said too explicitly; it’s better to leave it at that. But you’ve disappointed me.”
Zhong Wanwan didn't dare to say a word.
"I don't mind people using certain methods to achieve certain goals, but if it goes too far, it becomes illegal and criminal."
Zhong Wanwan's hands began to tremble, "Uncle, I...I..."
Do you know why I made her apologize to you that day?
Zhong Wanwan looked up at him, "Because she seduced..."
Meeting Li Duo's gaze, she changed her words: "My uncle wanted to avenge me."
"Yes, I made her apologize, hoping to vent your anger and appease your resentment."
“She apologized in public, losing all face and self-respect in front of Jiang Yuanchao. They both knew that there was no possibility between her and Jiang Yuanchao anymore. I thought that would satisfy you and make you let it go.”
Zhong Wanwan felt a little flustered, "Uncle, I was just confused for a moment..."
“Wanwan, you’re going to ruin a woman’s and her child’s life. Don’t forget, Jiang Yuanchao has been secretly in love with her for years, and it was you who interfered and ruined their relationship.”
"Besides, Jiang Yuanchao isn't a gigolo. Pushing him too far or driving him crazy won't do you any good."
With red eyes, Zhong Wanwan said, "Uncle, I was wrong. I'll never do it again!"
“Wanwan, I’ve always hoped you could be like your mother, not necessarily as kind as her, but at least an upright person, but…”
Li Duo didn't finish his sentence, "I had the video taken down."
"I see."
Li Duo reached out his hand: "Give me your phone. How many people did you send the video to? I need to make sure no one was missed!"
Hospital.
When Wen Shu pushed Rou Rou to the ward, she found that her grandmother was not in that room, and the original double room had been changed to a single room.
Wen Shu hurriedly asked the nurse, "Excuse me, where did the other patient in this room go?"
"Oh, this room has been converted into a single room, and the other patients are in the next room."
Wen Shu rushed to the next room and found that her grandmother's bed was placed across the wall in the double room.
Grandma lay there all alone, without even a curtain to block out the light.
Wen Shu's eyes immediately reddened, "Grandma!"
Grandma opened her eyes, smiled and waved her hand, comforting her: "It's okay, that hospital belongs to them. It's normal for their eldest grandson to care about his grandma. Besides, the hospital has apologized. Don't be angry."
Holding her grandmother's hand, Wen Shu choked back tears and said, "Grandma, please bear with me a little longer. Give me a chance to grow up. I promise I'll make sure you have a good life and that no one will bully you..."
Grandma nodded: "Great! I'm waiting for Shushu to make something of herself and take Grandma with her."
Without a bed, there are no curtains; without curtains, there is no privacy.
Wen Shu could only get warm water to wash her grandmother's body and change her clothes after the curtains for the other two patients were drawn.
She saw Rou Rou sleeping soundly in the stroller and felt glad that she had made a stupid decision to bring Rou Rou in the stroller today, otherwise Rou Rou would have had nowhere to sleep tonight.
Without a fixed bed, there is naturally no corresponding bed for family members to accompany the patient.
Wen Shu adjusted the stroller to make it flat, trying to make Rou Rou as comfortable as possible.
The little one has grown taller, and the stroller is a bit small for the chubby baby who is lying flat.
As for herself, she threw a piece of cardboard on the ground, placed the chubby stroller between the hospital bed and herself, and sat down against the wall to doze off.
Li Duo hadn't planned to come; it was already quite late when he left the Zhong family's house.
Zhong Tingsong offered to stay overnight, but Li Duo refused.
I decided to stop by and take a look since I was passing by the hospital.
"Is Second Grandma asleep?"
He glanced at the empty bed and asked with a normal expression.
The caregiver whispered, "She's asleep. The old lady has been put in the next room."
Ever since Grandma Li learned that the old lady in the next bed had a granddaughter who was pregnant out of wedlock, she had refused to share a ward with her.
Taking advantage of Li Duo's absence, they forcibly drove him away.
The reason given was that her eldest grandson felt sorry for her and didn't want the child in the next bed to disturb her; her eldest grandson insisted on this.
The eldest grandson is the hospital's biggest investor. The second grandmother's commotion alarmed even the hospital director. Since there were no single rooms available, the patients in the same room had to make do.
