And so, Duan Ye was sent to the hospital again. This time, with Duan Ze by his side, he went straight into the operating room to have the chip removed.
Luo Qingyuan waited outside.
In the hospital corridor, people came and went, and Luo Qingyuan sat there quietly. Apart from her stunningly beautiful face that attracted frequent glances, there was nothing else about her.
Even Duan Ze thought that Luo Qingyuan had calmly accepted this fact.
until...
Duan Ze called Luo Qingyuan several times, but she did not respond.
Duan Ze could only walk over and pat her on the shoulder: "Qingyuan."
Luo Qingyuan then came to her senses: "Huh? Brother..."
Duan Ze then noticed the bloodshot in her eyes and immediately felt a pang of unease.
Duan Ze sat down next to her and said, "I won't say much more. After Xiao Ye finishes his surgery, if you want to divorce him, I will help you persuade him."
Luo Qingyuan lowered her head: "Why?"
"Why what?"
Why would you try to persuade him?
Duan Ze said, "Although he is my younger brother, your life has indeed become a mess because of him. If you can't accept it, then we respect your choice."
Luo Qingyuan smiled, then fell silent.
Duan Ze thought that Luo Qingyuan would not speak again.
Unexpectedly...
"But when I barged into his life, I didn't ask him if he wanted to, did I?"
Duan Ze was somewhat surprised, not expecting her to say such a thing.
"I oversimplified things. Duan Ye is my first love. I've never been in a relationship before, so I don't really know how to manage one. I just followed my brother's example and gave all the good things to the person I like."
"I never imagined that this would lead to my grandmother's death."
"So all along..."
"The one I cannot forgive is myself."
Duan Ze didn't know how to comfort him for a moment, but soon, a familiar voice rang out.
"But have you ever thought about why Grandma didn't tell you about her illness back then, and why she insisted on attending your wedding despite her illness?"
Duan Ze and Luo Qingyuan looked up at the same time and saw Luo Shuyang.
"elder brother..."
Luo Shuyang also sat on the other side of Luo Qingyuan.
"Sometimes you're just too rigid."
"Was Grandma's situation solely your fault? No, Grandma knew long ago that her days were numbered, which is why she didn't want her situation to affect your marriage."
Luo Shuyang looked out the window. It was already seven o'clock in the evening, and it was completely dark.
"Qingyuan, have you ever considered that by punishing yourself in this way, aren't you also punishing Duan Ye and Grandma?"
"Grandma has lived most of her life, and her last wish is for you to be happy."
After speaking, Luo Shuyang looked towards the operating room.
"Once Duan Ye recovers, you two can have a proper talk."
"It hasn't been an easy journey."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Luo Shuyang saw Chen Manhua carrying a food box walking from the end of the corridor.
His expression suddenly softened considerably.
"Qingyuan, do you remember? Your sister-in-law used to be so irritable. She even slashed my shoulder, and the wound is still there."
Duan Ze was immediately taken aback. Was it really that powerful?
Luo Qingyuan suddenly remembered that her brother and sister-in-law's marriage was actually arranged. They seemed to be doing well on the surface when they got married, but they had been secretly fighting each other for a long time. The worst fight they had ever had resulted in both of them ending up in the hospital.
My brother was slashed on the shoulder by my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law was also covered in injuries.
These two are practically sworn enemies.
Even Luo Qingyuan couldn't stand it anymore and helped persuade Luo Shuyang to get a divorce.
What did Luo Shuyang say in the end?
"Divorce? Don't even think about it. She's ruined me like this, and she thinks she can just walk away? Ha."
Later, she went to persuade Chen Manhua.
"Divorce? Let your brother go and harm other people? I'm here, I hope he dies every day, life is so much more hopeful! Why would I get a divorce?"
Luo Qingyuan was still a student at the time, and the impact of these two on her was enormous.
Therefore, she strongly disliked arranged marriages.
Who knew that Luo Shuyang and Chen Manhua would fall madly in love a few years later? And now they even have a child together.
The nemesis truly became the wife.
Luo Qingyuan laughed and said, "I remember. Who would have thought you were such a love-struck person back then?"
Chen Manhua happened to walk over, and upon hearing this, she laughed and said, "What do you mean by 'love-struck'? It just happens to be the right person."
Luo Shuyang stood up, his smile deepening: "Yes, my wife is right."
Chen Manhua blushed slightly, but still ignored him, simply handing the food box to Luo Qingyuan: "Mom made this, have a taste."
Luo Qingyuan stared blankly at the food box.
"That's true, but as I said before, whatever decision you make, your family will support you."
After a few words, Duan Ye was pushed out.
However, he was still under anesthesia and had not yet woken up.
"Doctor, how is my husband?"
"Don't worry, the chip has been removed from his body, but he'll need to recover for a while."
Soon, Duan Ye was moved to the best single room in the hospital.
Luo Qingyuan: "I'll stay here and keep watch. You all go back."
Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to leave one after another.
Luo Qingyuan sat down again. The only sound in the room was the beeping of the instruments. Duan Ye was still wearing an oxygen mask and had an injection in the back of his left hand. Because no one caught him when he fell, he also had several abrasions on his face. Luo Qingyuan's eyes reddened as she looked at him.
