Chapter 102 The Old Lady Passed Away
Of course he didn't want it. If it was registered under Zhou Jian's name, and something happened, it would be Zhou Jian's bad luck, not his.
"Maybe I'm more charismatic. Why did Zhou Jian give Chen Yan the operating rights to a store in the first place?"
"I don't know the specifics, but it seems that Chen Yan helped him get someone out of trouble, so he gave it to Chen Yan to repay the favor."
Trying to get someone out of trouble? Chen Yan's influence is too great and too secretive; this person is really not someone to be trifled with.
Even Xu Qingmin didn't know all the details about this person.
After finishing all that and getting home, I remembered that I needed to move out, and I hadn't properly discussed it with the three women across the street yet.
When Song Yilin arrived at 602, only her mother and mother-in-law were watching TV.
Where is the old lady?
Ms. Meng glanced at her and then looked back at the TV: "Going dancing."
Ever since she learned that Bai Guanqun was not her biological son, the old lady often went downstairs to dance. Although she got along normally with Song Yilin, you could see the old lady's loneliness.
Song Yilin paused the TV for a moment.
"Mom, Mother-in-law, I want to discuss something with you. Our current house is a bit small. Would you be willing to move out with us and live in a villa?"
Song Yilin deliberately didn't mention that Xu Qingmin had another house nearby. If she did, her mother-in-law and the others would definitely say that they wanted to live there.
The mother-in-law spoke first: "I'm fine with anything, it's up to you. The key is the old lady. We've been trying to talk to her more lately, but you know, these kinds of things can't be resolved with just a few words."
Song Yilin also tried to communicate with the old lady, but the old lady seemed indifferent and couldn't say much.
Ms. Meng thought for a moment and said, "It depends on the old lady. If she wants to experience living in a villa, then we can go. But I still prefer living here. Everyone in the community is an old friend. Going to a villa is a rich area. We won't get along and we won't be able to chat."
"Not all parents who live in villas are rich. Many parents who live in villas have moved from old neighborhoods or rural areas. Many of them grow vegetables in their villas."
Ms. Meng snatched the remote control from Song Yilin's hand: "No matter what, we'll see what the old lady thinks."
Seeing how determined the two mothers were, Song Yilin decided to go downstairs to find the old lady.
Song Yilin walked around the apartment building a few times before finally spotting an elderly woman in the crowd of elderly men and women.
She had just called out "Grandma" when someone else called her.
"Song Yilin".
"Gu Sinan, what are you doing...?"
Gu Sinan grabbed her shoulders and shouted, "Where did you hide Wang Qianqian?"
Gu Sinan's action attracted a lot of onlookers. The old lady also noticed and thought that Gu Sinan was going to harm her. She stepped forward and tried to pull Gu Sinan away, but Gu Sinan didn't see who was pulling him and simply shook off the old lady's hand.
Gu Sinan then asked Song Yilin, "Is Wang Qianqian no longer in Jianghai City? Is she pregnant?"
Song Yilin didn't say anything, she just looked at Gu Sinan quietly. How did he know that Wang Qianqian was pregnant?
The old lady tried to pull him away again, but this time Gu Sinan impatiently shook her off. The old lady, being old, lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Song Yilin tried to catch it, but it was too late.
The crowd quickly dispersed.
Song Yilin immediately picked up the old lady, and only then did she see that the old lady's head had hit the sharp corner of the marble bench, and her head was covered in blood.
"Grandma, can you still see me clearly?"
The old lady touched her face: "Yilin, in the end, it is our Bai family that owes you this whole life."
"Grandma, please don't say that. Let's go to the hospital right away."
Gu Sinan panicked: "Song Yilin, I'm sorry, I didn't see anyone just now."
"Stop talking nonsense and come help me."
Gu Sinan quickly helped Song Yilin lift the old lady into the car.
On the way, Gu Sinan hesitated, but now was not the time to ask questions.
Song Yilin knew what Gu Sinan was thinking, but she didn't have the energy to deal with him.
Once she arrived at the hospital, she was taken directly to the emergency room, and only then did Song Yilin remember to tell her family.
Less than twenty minutes later, Xu Qingmin brought the other three to the hospital as well. When Xu Qingmin saw that Gu Sinan was covered in blood, he asked, "Gu Sinan, what are you doing here?"
"I accidentally made the old lady fall."
Before her mother-in-law could even get impatient, Bai Guanqun, with red eyes, stepped forward to scratch Gu Sinan.
Xu Qingmin didn't stop her, but Ms. Meng stopped him when she saw that it was inappropriate and he scratched her three times.
Xu Qingmin knew without asking why Gu Sinan had come to Fengxiang Community.
Xu Qingmin didn't want to hide it from Gu Sinan any longer: "Wang Qianqian is at the Binzhou store. If you want to go see her, go ahead. But you have to take full responsibility for the old lady's matter."
Gu Sinan nodded and did not leave, waiting with them in the emergency room.
My mother-in-law signed one critical illness certificate after another.
The last doctor, covered in sweat, came out and said, "I'm sorry, we did our best."
Song Yilin's legs went weak, and Xu Qingmin quickly hugged her. Her mother-in-law and mother burst into tears. Bai Guanqun stepped forward and bit Gu Sinan's hand hard. Gu Sinan did not resist, and Bai Guanqun continued to bite.
A life was lost just like that. The old lady was in good health; if this hadn't happened, she could have easily lived to be ninety.
After Bai Guanqun relented, Gu Sinan came to Song Yilin and bowed deeply to her, saying, "I'm sorry."
Song Yilin wiped away her tears: "I know you didn't mean it, but the old lady died because of you. I'm not a direct relative, so I don't have the right to decide whether to forgive you."
However, it seems that the old lady's only immediate family member is her daughter.
But that daughter will definitely not pursue Gu Sinan's legal responsibility; what she wants is money.
The mother-in-law realized what was happening and called the old lady's daughter.
Surprisingly, they arrived in no time, accompanied by a large group of people.
Isn't the old lady's daughter not in Jianghai City?
The old lady's daughter, Bai Menglan, burst into tears as soon as she arrived.
But her crying was fake; there was no sadness at all. She cried like a professional medical malpractice troll.
A voice inside Song Yilin's head told her something was very wrong.
Song Yilin whispered in Xu Qingmin's ear, "Xu Qingmin, do you trust your intuition?"
"It's not just your intuition, we can see it too."
Song Yilin called out to the doctor, "Doctor, we request an autopsy."
Bai Menglan panicked upon hearing this. A group of people wanted to rush forward and hit Song Yilin, but Gu Sinan and Xu Qingmin stood in front of Song Yilin, their imposing presence deterring the four or five men from making a move.
Song Yilin immediately called the police.
Bai Menglan kept cursing: "You jinx! My mother is dead and you still won't let her rest in peace. Doctor, I am the patient's daughter, and I have the right to decide whether or not she needs an autopsy."
The doctor quickly said, "An autopsy falls under the category of forensic medicine, not a hospital procedure. You'd better wait for the police to arrive."
Bai Menglan shouted, "We'll take my mother's body with us."
Xu Qingmin quickly called for help from the hospital.
Before the police arrive, prevent these people from taking the old woman away.
