"I just feel sorry for you," Dongfang Tinglan said after thinking for a moment, seeing that Gong Beize had misunderstood.
Suddenly remembering that her daughter and son-in-law were still alive, she blushed with embarrassment.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue's furrowed brows immediately relaxed. She was worried that her kind-hearted mother would feel wronged because of this.
Now that her mother said this, she felt relieved.
Hearing this, Gong Beize felt a warmth in his heart, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"I'm fine. All I can do is try my best and leave the rest to fate. As long as I have a clear conscience, that's enough."
For his mother, he now shoulders the responsibility of being a son. Although the harm his mother caused him cannot be erased, he also hopes that the love she once gave him can be the same.
All he can do now is to fulfill his duties as a son while protecting his wife and daughter from harm.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Tinglan looked at Gong Beize with gentle eyes and nodded.
"Don't bear everything alone in the future. You can tell me. Although I may not be able to help you much, I can at least listen and make you feel less troubled."
She knew that Gong Beize was a sentimental person and a filial son, but not blindly so. When she first learned about this, she was afraid that Gong Beize would feel bad, after all, such a big thing was on his shoulders, and she felt sorry for him.
Jian Yixue, who was standing to the side, frowned suddenly as she watched this scene, but then relaxed her brows as if she had thought of something.
Just then, there was a noise at the door.
The bodyguard reached out to stop the secretary who was trying to barge in. "Miss, this is a private area. Please leave."
"Please inform them that I am President Gong's secretary. Miss Gong sent me here because the old lady has had an accident."
Just as the bodyguard was in a dilemma, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open.
Then, the tall and upright Gong Beize appeared at the gate.
He frowned and asked, "What happened?"
Just as the bodyguard was about to reply, the secretary looked at the man in front of her and saw that his face bore a striking resemblance to Gong Yuanyuan's. She immediately knew that the man in front of her was the one she was looking for.
"Mr. Gong, this is Gong Yuanyuan, President Gong's secretary. She asked me to come find you. The old lady is making a scene in the hospital room, insisting on being discharged. President Gong couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he sent me to find you."
Upon hearing this, Gong Beize frowned instantly.
"Let's go take a look."
Gong Beize strode toward Old Madam Gong's ward, with his secretary following closely behind.
*
"Mom, I already told you, you should stay a few more days to rest and recuperate," Gong Yuanyuan said with a frown and a hint of helplessness.
Madam Gong disagreed, saying, "Why stay? My hand injury is healed, I need to go back quickly."
"Why are you going back? Just stay here for a few days. I'll stay with you at the hospital these days."
Gong Yuanyuan still couldn't bear to tell her about her illness, fearing that she wouldn't be able to handle the blow.
"No need. I can recover at home. Besides, the Gong family has its own family doctor. What would it look like if I stayed in the hospital?" Old Madam Gong refused, lifting the covers to get out of bed.
Gong Yuanyuan said helplessly, "Mom..."
"If you stop me again, you're not my daughter. Didn't you see how many times your two good brothers have come to see me these past few days in the hospital, especially your eldest brother! If I stay here any longer, they'll drive me crazy." The old lady was furious at the thought of Gong Beize and Gong Nanting.
"One by one, they forget their mothers after getting wives! I wish I had never given birth to these ungrateful wretches!"
After saying this, Madam Gong felt a little guilty, but she didn't show it.
Gong Yuanyuan sighed and said, "You know that my eldest brother and second brother are busy."
Although she said that, she knew that her mother had really angered her two older brothers this time.
"What are you so busy with?" Old Madam Gong retorted. "No matter how busy you are, do you think I, your mother, am just invisible to them?"
Gong Yuanyuan, "..."
Whether it's air or not, it's all your own doing.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have had to cancel several days of her schedule to stay here with me.
Suddenly, Madam Gong realized something and said, "Is your eldest brother still in that ward? What is his relationship with that person? He would rather visit him than visit his mother, me. This is my good eldest son!"
Do you even know that I was hospitalized because of him? With so many people around, he managed to injure me! If you ask me, someone like that should be dismissed and investigated!
Gong Yuanyuan frowned and said, "Mom, they saved you after all. It's one thing for you not to be grateful, but it's not good to say things like that."
She knew, of course, that the person inside was her eldest brother's son-in-law, but she didn't want to tell her mother. Otherwise, given her mother's way of doing things, she would definitely make things even more tense.
This is not what she wanted to see. Now that her older brother has finally returned, all she wants is for the family to return to the happy and carefree times they once shared.
"What's wrong with that? I'm just stating the facts! Did he cause the wound on my arm to appear on his own? It's not that he's incompetent; I wouldn't have gotten hurt!"
Madam Gong gets furious whenever this matter is mentioned.
If she hadn't run into Gong Beize in the hospital room that day, she would have confronted that person long ago.
The thought that she was here while Gong Beize didn't come to see her made her feel very unhappy.
“Go and call your older brother over. If he doesn’t come, I’ll leave the hospital immediately.”
Madam Gong appeared to be acting unreasonably.
Seeing this, Gong Yuanyuan had no choice but to instruct her secretary to go there.
Thus, the opening scene unfolded.
After the secretary left, Gong Yuanyuan sat in a chair and looked at her mother on the hospital bed, unable to help but say, "Mom, when my older brother comes over later, can you talk to him properly?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Gong was immediately displeased.
"What do you mean by that? It's clearly him who's unwilling to speak to me properly, so why are you bringing it up against me?"
If it weren't for the current situation making her somewhat out of control, she wouldn't have such a good temper at all.
After all, she hadn't achieved her goal yet, and she hadn't enjoyed her current life enough.
Before Gong Beize could even enter the ward, he heard the sounds inside as soon as he pushed open the door.
Immediately, Gong Beize pushed open the door and went inside.
Seeing Gong Beize's retreating figure, Gong Yuanyuan swallowed the words that were about to come out.
He then stood up, walked to Gong Beize's side, and said with a hint of helplessness, "Big brother, you've come."
Gong Beize hummed in response, then walked to the bedside of Old Madam Gong and said, "Your body is your own. If you really don't want to live and want to be discharged, then please do so!"
Gong Beize is really angry!
He was desperately trying to find a way to prolong her life, while she was causing trouble here.
Upon hearing this, Madam Gong immediately lost her temper and said, "What did you say! Are you hoping for my death?!"
You've become so blinded by greed for that bitch! Now you even want my life!
