I don't know if the world is too small, or if we are just too destined to meet.
The woman who had swaggered into the ward and flaunted her wealth during the day was sitting diagonally opposite Qiao Wanyue and Lu Rong. However, she seemed oblivious to Qiao Wanyue and Lu Rong and angrily complained to the woman opposite her.
“That old bastard finds fault with everything I do now and gives me the cold shoulder. That little brat actually cried when he saw me. How come he wasn’t beaten to death by the human traffickers? How did he manage to come back?”
"Yingying, keep your voice down."
"That old geezer took the little brat out to play, he won't hear us." Shi Yuying said without any restraint; she was about to burst and desperately needed someone to take care of her.
“Yingying, you can’t do this. You have to win Liang Lang’s heart. Nothing else matters. You need to know that the eldest grandson and the youngest son are the old lady’s lifeblood. Why does the old lady like that mute man? Isn’t it because he is the eldest grandson?”
“That child is mute. Who else would like him besides the old lady? Your most important task now is to give the Liang family a child. As long as there is a healthy and lively child, why would the old lady still like a mute?”
Shi Yuying's eyes darted around a few times.
Of course she wanted to have a child, but that old hag gave a strict order: as long as that little brat couldn't speak, her and Liang Lang's child couldn't be born. If she dared to give birth, she would kill herself by dropping her neck at the Liang family's gate.
She entered the Liang family by getting pregnant, but the old lady forced the child to his death.
She was filled with hatred.
But she also knew very well that she was able to enter the Liang family through her methods, and she was always inferior to the old lady.
“Giving birth is not so easy,” Shi Yuying sighed.
A cunning glint flashed in his friend's eyes. "There's more than one group of human traffickers these days."
A glint flashed in Shi Yuying's eyes. "You mean?"
Her eyes immediately dimmed.
"The old lady already suspects me. If I make another move, Liang Lang will be angry." Liang Lang doesn't like that child either, but that doesn't mean he'll let her do whatever she wants. The fact that she can stay despite being disliked by the old lady means that she has a grasp on the psychology of everyone in the Liang family.
The old lady suspected her this time, but had no evidence.
If she catches her with evidence, she will really be kicked out.
His friend chuckled softly, "There's no need for you to get involved. That kid just likes the old lady next door. If the kid gets lost from her, it's none of your business."
Shi Yuying's eyes lit up.
Qiao Wanyue and Lu Rong overheard their entire conversation.
Lu Rong was so angry that he stood up on the spot to settle the score with her.
Qiao Wanyue pulled her to sit down. The two people next to them didn't seem to notice them. The cafeteria was full of hospital staff, and people were coming and going. The people here were strangers, so even if they heard Shi Yuying's words, they wouldn't suspect anything, since no one knew who Shi Yuying was talking about.
They hadn't expected Qiao Wanyue and Lu Rong to be behind them.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Qiao Wanyue finally spoke up, "Mom, that person is that child's stepmother. Be careful in the future. If that family or that child comes looking for you, stay far away from them."
"I'll go back and ask the doctor. If I recover well, we'll leave as soon as possible."
Lu Rong wished he could leave right now.
How unlucky she must be, to have someone take advantage of her kindness.
The two ate quickly, then returned to the ward with the food they had brought for Lu Heng. Lu Heng had washed up and changed into clean clothes. Qiao Wanyue gave him the food she had brought, and then discussed with Lu Heng that the two of them would take turns keeping Lu Rong company.
