Chapter 80 Victim No. 2
As soon as Cui Jueyan entered the room, he noticed Du Lianshuang who had woken up. He was overjoyed and went forward to hold her hand, but Du Lianshuang dodged him first out of fear.
This has never happened before!
The smile on Cui Jueyan's face froze slightly, and he subconsciously clenched his outstretched hand after retracting it, but he still patiently cared about the other person.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Du Lianshuang also realized her own gaffe and bit the tip of her tongue again, letting the pain bring her back to her senses.
"I've been feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath these past two days. I fainted today. My sister-in-law is worried that I might run into an emergency after returning home, so she asked me to stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation. I can only go back when I'm sure I'm fine."
Du's mother quickly realized that Du Lianshuang didn't want to go home and sleep alone with Cui Jueyan, so she held her hand and squeezed it to comfort her.
"Lianshuang has always been in good health. It's hard not to worry about her suddenly having so many problems, such as fainting and chest tightness. After all, our family is one of the shareholders of this hospital, so it's not a big problem for them to reserve a ward for Lianshuang. Just observe her for a few days and let her go back when she's better, so we can feel at ease."
Since both of them had made this decision, Cui Jueyan didn't know what to say. However, when he heard Du Lianshuang say that she felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, a light flashed in his eyes.
Instead, Duanrao tilted his head in confusion.
[When did mom and aunt discuss hospitalization? Why didn’t I hear it just now? Did I miss it because I was too absorbed in my thoughts? ]
Du Lianshuang and her mother froze at the same time, sweating profusely as they thought about how to make amends and get away with it.
Du Anrao had already found a reason for them.
[Maybe the two of them just got together to whisper, right? These adults always like to whisper in front of the younger generation, and they always think that the younger generation is too young to understand, tsk…]
Two adults who like to whisper: “…” Okay.
No matter what, it was better for Du Lianshuang to stay in her own hospital now than to go home and stay with the man who was ready to drive her crazy. This was also the main reason why Du Anrao did not continue to worry about it.
Since you need to be hospitalized, someone must be with you in the hospital.
Du Lianshuang really didn't know how to face her husband, so she sent him away on the pretext of asking him to go back and pack his clothes.
Afterwards, on the grounds that Cui Jueyan had to stay in the hospital with her and the two children had no one to take care of them, she asked the two children to stay at Du's house for a while and would pick them up when she was discharged from the hospital.
This proposal was quite appropriate for the two children. After all, even Du Lianshuang, an adult, didn't know how to face Cui Jueyan at the moment, let alone two underage children.
If the two of them couldn't hold back and Cui Jueyan discovered the clues, then some of the things they wanted to know would probably become a secret forever.
Before the Du family left, Du Lianshuang pulled Du's father, hoping that he could stay and accompany her for a while longer.
When Du's mother saw this, she knew that the two siblings must have something to say, so she packed up everyone and took them away with great tact.
Once the door of the ward was closed, only the brother and sister were left in the room. Du Lianshuang finally couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears.
"Brother, how could this happen? How could he do this? My dad...my dad is so good to him, almost treating him like his own son. In the past few years, whether he wanted to do investment or academic research, as long as my dad could do it, he never treated him unfairly. How could he...how could he have the heart to do this...did his conscience get eaten by a dog?"
She could accept everything else. Even if she knew the identities of Cui Dongmei and her son, she could forgive him for the sake of the two children. At worst, she would never have any contact with him again.
But if her father's death was really related to Cui Jueyan, then they were destined to fight to the death!
Father Du looked at his sister who had grown up under his care and sighed distressedly: "Uncle San treats him as his son, but he doesn't treat Uncle San as his father. He has his own parents."
Du Lianshuang paused in crying. Her father's words were like a thunderbolt that woke her up completely.
Yes, she not only has her own parents, but also her own wife and children. She, her children, and her father are just stepping stones for people to climb up.
When Du Lianshuang thought about how Cui Jueyan had been using her family's money and resources to support his wife and children outside, she couldn't help feeling nauseous and vomited in front of Du's father.
Father Du hurried to help, but Du Lianshuang fainted without eating much just now, and now she just vomited some acid water.
After vomiting, Du Lianshuang's complexion looked much better.
Father Du poured her a glass of water and asked, "What are you going to do about this?"
"My father's death must be thoroughly investigated." Du Lianshuang held the cup and burst into tears again, "My father is indeed allergic to many pollens, especially locust tree flowers. He will get sick as long as he touches a little bit..."
"Okay, I'll investigate this matter. You keep Cui Jueyan steady and don't let him find out anything. Especially about the things going on in his family, it's best if you pretend you don't know anything about it now. Once we get the evidence, we'll have plenty of opportunities to settle the score."
Du Lianshuang breathed a sigh of relief and secretly felt fortunate that there were still relatives in this world who were willing to support her.
Cui Jueyan went home to get some clean clothes and came back soon. Du Lianshuang had vomited and cried a lot, but her emotions had basically stabilized. At least she was able to suppress her nausea and pretend to be nice to him temporarily so as not to arouse his suspicion.
Fortunately, this torture did not last long.
Du Lianshuang and Cui Jueyan's vacation only lasted until the day before the accident, and Cui Jueyan had to go back to work at the company early the next morning.
Du Lianshuang politely declined the other party's suggestion to take leave to accompany the patient, symbolically hired a nurse, and waited for Du Anrao's arrival in the ward.
The second day after Du Lianshuang was hospitalized was not a weekend, so Du Yuxi had to go to class, and the two younger children also returned to school after her persuasion.
Du Lianshuang was eager to know more about Cui Jueyan, so she asked her mother to bring Du Anrao with her when she came to deliver food.
And it turned out that her decision was a wise one!
When Du Anrao and his mother arrived at the door of the ward carrying the old hen soup that had been stewed last night, a female voice that they had never heard before was heard from inside.
"You're already in the hospital, but Cui Jueyan didn't even accompany you. This is too much! He usually says sweet words to you, but he runs away faster than anyone else at the critical moment. Men really can't be trusted!"
"I asked him to go back to work first. The company has several big projects that need people to look after recently, and they can't do without people. If you knock everyone down with one stick, your husband will be very unhappy."
"I don't care whether he is happy or not." The woman snorted coldly, "Where are your two children? Jingyi said a few days ago that she wanted to visit your house to play with them, but who would have thought that you would be admitted to the hospital before she had the chance to visit them."
[Wait, Jingyi? ]
Duanrao outside the door suddenly pricked up his ears and widened his eyes.
[The second victim Liao Jingyi who was even more miserable than her aunt? ]
