Song Xunying was already extremely fragile, and seeing her like this, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Hearing the noise behind her, Lin Banxia couldn't help but shed tears.
She wanted to offer comfort, but she didn't know what to say. All she could do was keep looking in the direction of the operating room and pray silently in her heart.
Didn't they say they would continue searching for their daughter?
The person hasn't been found yet, and his career isn't finished. How can Song Mingqian... quit halfway through?
The atmosphere in the corridor became extremely oppressive, with only low gasps audible.
Song Xunying was helped to sit down on a bench and rest for a while.
Lin Banxia, who was next to her, leaned her head against the wall, staring blankly in the direction of the operating room door.
Both of them seemed to have all their strength drained away in an instant, their eyes glazed over.
It wasn't until a steady footstep echoed in the corridor that Song Xunying and Lin Banxia seemed to be startled awake, turning their heads to look in the same direction.
Several men in military uniforms walked towards them. The one in the lead was particularly tall, and his aura was calm and powerful.
Although Lin Banxia did not recognize the other party, she could guess his identity to some extent.
Song Xunying, who was standing to the side, was instantly moved to tears.
"Chief Xie, do you know anything about the inside story of Mingqian's car accident?"
Xie Lanshen, accompanied by several comrades, walked up to the Cheng family. He stopped Song Xunying and the others from getting up with a look, and said in a deep voice:
"When Mr. Song had the accident today, we were conducting secret field training nearby. Upon hearing the unusual noise, we rushed to the scene to carry out the rescue."
"After rescuing the driver and Mr. Song in time, we took them to the hospital immediately."
"However... their injuries are quite severe, and their condition is not optimistic."
Xie Lanshen's expression was also very heavy, after all, Song Mingqian's identity was so special.
If something were to happen because of this sudden car accident, it would cause serious losses to the arsenal, the military, and the country.
Song Xunying and Cheng Yuanfang had been at the hospital for quite some time, but Song Mingqian and the driver had remained inside the operating room.
They were restless waiting outside, and now that they had finally run into someone who knew the situation, they quickly asked a few more questions.
"It's been so long, and there's still no movement from the operating room. We're really worried."
"Commander Xie, could you please tell us the details of the car accident?"
As Song Mingqian's family members, they have the right to know about the accident. Moreover, the car accident is not a secret, and there is nothing that cannot be said.
Xie Lanshen was afraid they wouldn't be able to handle it after hearing it, so he only gave a brief overview of the situation.
Even so, the Cheng family members were still shocked by what they heard.
"Because the vehicle was severely damaged, the cause of the accident is still unclear. We can only determine from the tire tracks that the front of the car Mr. Song was riding in was out of control and the brakes were also damaged."
"To avoid a fatal crash, they had no choice but to maneuver the vehicle down the hillside and into a forest."
"This action saved their lives, but it also inevitably brought new problems: when the car rolled down the mountain, it was caught by a tree, which cushioned the fall and reduced the car's speed."
"Therefore, Mr. Song and the driver did not die instantly when they jumped out of the car, but the powerful impact also caused tree branches to pass through their bodies."
Xie Lanshen couldn't bear to elaborate on just how tragic the situation was.
Lin Banxia was completely dazed when she heard this. She slowly stood up, but then staggered uncontrollably.
Seeing that she was gripping the table tightly and could barely stand, Song Xunying held back her tears and quickly went to support her.
"Banxia, don't be too sad. Mingqian is a lucky man, and I believe he will be able to overcome this difficulty."
Hearing their voices, Xie Lanshen looked up.
He doesn't usually pay much attention to entertainment news. Although he thought the woman in front of him had a striking presence, he didn't recognize her as the famous singer. He was just a little surprised.
Who is this?
Song Xunying quickly wiped away the tears in her eyes, took Lin Banxia's arm, and smiled at him shyly.
"Look at me, I forgot to introduce you two. Chief Xie, this is my sister-in-law, her name is Lin Banxia."
"Banxia, this Chief Xie is our family's savior and Miss Shen's fiancé."
Lin Banxia should have greeted him politely, but she forced a smile and couldn't muster any emotion, so she could only nod faintly.
Xie Lanshen looked at her pale face and felt a strange sense of familiarity.
But he clearly didn't know the other person, and this feeling came too suddenly.
After suppressing these emotions, Xie Lan spoke in a deep voice, comforting her as if she were a family member.
“Madam Song, this hospital has top-notch medical expertise nationwide. I believe it can definitely cure Mr. Song. Please don’t be too sad and take good care of yourself.”
"Thank you, Commander Xie."
As Lin Banxia spoke to him, her gaze remained fixed on the opposite wall, as if she were talking to herself in a low voice.
"I regret it, I really regret it. If I had known this day would come, why would I have kept arguing with him?"
Song Xunying's heart stirred slightly upon hearing this, and the hand wrapped around Lin Banxia's arm tightened involuntarily.
"Banxia, does saying this mean you've already forgiven Mingqian?"
"No."
Lin Banxia shook her head with a wry smile.
“Mingqian has never done anything wrong, so why should I forgive him?”
"It's just that after losing my daughter, I felt so depressed and didn't know who to vent my anger on, so I just dumped all these emotions on him."
"But looking back now, I realize I was wrong. I was too immature. I should have told Mingqian this morning when we parted ways that I never blamed him."
“My daughter’s abduction was just an accident. The fault lies not with Mingqian, but with those who harmed her.”
As Lin Banxia spoke, her voice involuntarily became choked with emotion.
“I’m already over 40 years old, how could I be so childish and immature? If I had explained these things to Mingqian earlier, maybe this accident wouldn’t have happened today.”
She lowered her head deeply, raised her hand to cover her face, and her shoulders trembled uncontrollably.
Song Xunying held her in his arms, feeling as if his heart was breaking.
"It's not your fault. Neither what happened before nor this car accident today is your responsibility. Banxia, don't put all the blame on yourself."
“You have suffered so much these years. Both we and Mingqian know this. You have always been our family.”
