Having been dealing with them on this matter for so long, Song Qingyou's patience was almost completely exhausted.
Fu Bei glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, "Madam, shall we go straight back to Yalin Villa?"
Song Qingyou looked up in surprise, then suddenly smiled and said, "I thought you only listened to Fu Wenzhou's orders."
Fu Bei said expressionlessly, "You are my master now. Young Master Fu told me to just follow your orders."
Song Qingyou nodded and looked out the window: "Let's go back to Yalin Villa."
She was exhausted and under immense stress.
Fu Wenzhou is right, she should go back and get some rest.
At the hospital.
Song Ning was late in arriving, so in order to save her life, the doctors had no choice but to perform the surgery first and then have the family sign a consent form.
Fu Wenzhou sat on a bench in the hospital corridor, his legs crossed, exuding an air of noble arrogance. He glanced at his watch, and as he put it down, a noise came from the stairwell.
Fu Nan rushed over with Song Ning, and upon seeing Fu Wenzhou, he immediately called out, "Young Master Fu!"
Song Ning's face was ashen. Although she still harbored resentment over Xu Qingran abandoning her and hated herself for raising two ungrateful children, she was on the verge of collapse when she heard about Xu Qingran's accident.
No matter how bad Xu Qingran is, she is still a piece of flesh that fell from her body, a child that she carried for ten months and endured hardships to give birth to.
Besides, without Song Qingyou, how could Qingran, a child who has been well-behaved since childhood, have become like this?
She blamed everything on Song Qingyou, as if that would offset the hatred she felt for Xu Qingran.
Song Ning's body was already at its limit. Without the support of medication, she could only hold on for another six months at most. Now, even speaking required a great deal of strength. Her aged hands trembled, and her cloudy eyes were filled with anxiety and anger.
She stepped forward to grab Fu Wenzhou's arm and question him, but Fu Nan stopped her.
Song Ning could only glare at Fu Wenzhou: "How is Xu Qingran? Why did this happen to her! Did you guys do this?! Cough cough cough cough!!"
Fu Wenzhou frowned, stood up, took two steps back to distance himself from Song Ning, and said coldly, "They're still trying to save her; it's unclear whether she'll live or die."
Seeing his evasive attitude, Song Ning was nearly driven mad with anger: "Fu... Fu Wenzhou! I am your elder, is this how you talk to your elder? Don't forget, I am Song Qingyou's mother, and according to seniority, I am your mother-in-law!"
Fu Wenzhou glanced at her and scoffed, "I don't have a poor relative like you, and my wife certainly doesn't have a mother like you."
Song Ning coughed so hard she almost choked. After finally catching her breath, she glared at Fu Wenzhou before turning to find a doctor.
The words "Operation in Progress" were still lit up, and the doctor couldn't tell them anything. He only sent a nurse out to tell Song Ning about Xu Qingran's injuries, then had Song Ning sign the consent form and left with it.
Song Ning had suffered a humiliating defeat at Tang Hanyan's hands, and after returning home, she was tormented by those debt collectors. All her arrogance had been worn away in just a few days.
Facing Fu Wenzhou, she lost her original confidence and gritted her teeth, hiding in a corner and enduring it silently.
Xu Qingran's surgery lasted for six hours, continuing into the night.
The nurse wheeled the person into the ICU through the operating room corridor. As soon as the doctor came out of the operating room, Song Ning rushed up to him: "Doctor, how is my daughter? Why was she in a car accident? What exactly happened?"
The doctor asked doubtfully, "A car accident? She wasn't..."
Before the words were even finished, the doctor felt a chill run down his spine. He looked up and saw Fu Wenzhou's cold gaze, and subconsciously swallowed. The man's aura was simply too powerful.
He quickly retracted his words: "The surgery was quite successful, but I am still not out of danger and will need a second surgery, scheduled for a week later, at which time my limb will be amputated."
Upon hearing the word "amputation," Song Ning froze, "What...what did you say? Amputation?"
The doctor explained, "Yes, the patient's leg is broken. She lost too much blood during the surgery, and the muscles and nerves have become infected and necrotic. Amputation is necessary to save her life. Given her current unstable condition, the surgery can only be performed in a week."
Song Ning suddenly collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face, pleading, "Doctor, please save her! She's only just turned 18, she has such a long future ahead of her, how can you amputate her leg?! No, I don't agree!"
The doctor frowned and said, "The only way to save your life is through amputation, otherwise you're just waiting to die. What's two legs compared to your life?"
Song Ning shook her head, crying, her emotions nearly collapsing: "No...no...I can't have my leg amputated. How can I go back to the Song family, how can I take my place in the Song Corporation if I have my leg amputated..."
Fu Nan never expected that even at a time like this, Song Ning would still be thinking about the Song family's power and assets.
I really don't know if she's genuinely doing it for Xu Qingran's good or for her own selfish desires.
Fu Wenzhou sneered, looking down at Song Ning: "Back then, you abandoned everything in the Song family and chose to live a life of ignominy. Now that you're old, you're starting to regret it and want your daughter to live out your past self?"
His words shattered the pride that Song Ning had always maintained.
Song Ning felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and her whole body was cold.
Does she regret it? She had regretted it long ago. From the moment she ran away from the hospital to live a normal life with Xu Qingran's father, she had already regretted it.
But there's no turning back now. The Song family is completely under Luo Yuan's control, and there's no point in her going back. Instead, she'll just become a plaything for Luo Yuan's family. Rather than going back and suffering humiliation, she'd rather just continue living with Xu Qingran's father.
But things are different now. Now Luo Yuan is dead, several members of the Luo family are in jail, and the woman in a vegetative state is beyond anyone's control.
So what's wrong with her wanting to come back and take back what belongs to her?
As her daughter, shouldn't Song Qingyou return the Song family to her?
And then there's Xu Qingran. She raised her all these years, only to be cruelly abandoned in the end. Now, this child she raised with such hardship is about to become a useless person confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life.
Song Ning laughed until she cried blood. Why was her life so bitter? She had grown up pampered and loved by everyone. She had once been a favored daughter of heaven.
Luo Yuan ruined all of this.
Song Ning cried and then laughed, her eyes bloodshot. Suddenly, she coughed up a mouthful of blood, collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
Seeing this, the nurses nearby rushed over and lifted the person onto the hospital bed.
For a moment, the emergency room was in chaos again.
Fu Wenzhou stood still, observing coldly with a stern expression, his eyes devoid of any pity.
