Qiao Shanshan sneered. Perhaps when Yuanyuan was sick, Wei's mother said she wanted to save money and wouldn't take the child to see a doctor. She said it so confidently that Qiao Shanshan took it for granted that it was also right not to take Wei's mother to see a doctor.
"We don't have any money. When Yuanyuan was sick, didn't you say that spending so much money was worse than dying? Now your illness will cost even more, maybe 50,000 or 100,000 won't be enough. Why don't you think about whether your life is worth that much money!"
Wei's mother was furious and rushed over to tear Qiao Shanshan's hair.
Qiao Shanshan pushed her away, "Alright, stop making a scene. If others see this, they'll think I did something to wrong you. I just got married, and you haven't forgotten how you treated me during my postpartum period, have you? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have miscarried. Xiao Bao's mental issues might be because you fed him some weird stuff, which is why he's in this mess! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be living such a miserable life!"
Mother Wei was so angry she was sobbing.
Qiao Shanshan, impatient, pushed her aside and left. After Qiao Shanshan had gone far away, Wei's mother looked at Xiao Bao in the living room and came to her senses: "She just left like that? Xiao Bao isn't taking her? She wouldn't be thinking of leaving the child behind, would she? God, how could this woman be so heartless! This is her own flesh and blood!"
Wei Mingyuan is going crazy too.
If Qiao Shanshan had taken the child with her after the divorce, he would have only lost a wife at most. But now that Qiao Shanshan has abandoned the child, he is a disabled old man with a mentally challenged child and a mother with cancer. How is he supposed to live?
Are the family just waiting to die?
Wei Mingyuan was furious. "Mom, please stop talking. You're making me anxious."
"You're blaming me? If you hadn't been messing around with women and your wife hadn't seen it, if you hadn't been in that car accident and become disabled, things wouldn't be like this! I told you long ago, no one in this world can share your hardships except your wife. Look at you, you've ruined a perfectly good family. Now look what's happened, nobody wants the kids, and your mother can only wait to die!"
Mother Wei almost cried herself blind.
She really got her comeuppance. She abused the adopted child and abandoned him. Now look what happened! Some of her family members are disabled or mentally challenged. Qiao Shanshan ran away, and she's not far from death. What's the point of her living?
Wei Mingyuan was a little annoyed. He really wanted to go find Qiao Shanshan, but the couple had argued like this, and he had nothing to say to each other.
Moreover, he's a grown man and doesn't know how to beg a woman.
Suddenly, Wei's mother said, "Where do you think she could hide the money? Could it be that she's keeping a lover outside and giving all the money to him to keep?"
Wei Mingyuan was stunned. He felt that Qiao Shanshan would never do such a thing, would never betray him. But what his mother said was so detailed and convincing. Besides, Qiao Shanshan had always been timid and easy to manipulate. Why was she so tough this time? Could it be that she really had someone else outside?
Wei Mingyuan couldn't help but get angry at the thought that Qiao Shanshan was keeping a lover outside.
"If I catch her keeping a lover, I'll beat her to death!"
“It’s no use being tough on your mother. The key is your wife. You have to find Qiao Shanshan. She has money. Get her to give money to Mom for treatment. Otherwise, Mom’s illness is incurable, and she can only wait to die!”
Wei Mingyuan frowned. "Didn't you give the family 50,000 yuan a few years ago? Building a house won't cost you much. What about the rest? If you don't use it for medical treatment, you can't just wait to die!"
Mother Wei was unhappy. If this money were taken out, what would she spend on her medical treatment after it was cured?
"I don't have any money. I've spent it all. Besides, given your brother's situation, I have to leave him some money!"
Wei Mingyuan was a little angry. It was one thing for his mother to be biased in the past, but now that things had come to this, she still wouldn't take out the money for medical treatment. Did she really want to die in Shenzhen?
"Whatever. Anyway, I told you before that I don't have money to treat your illness. Now that Qiao Shanshan has run away, if you don't come up with the money, you can only wait to die. I want to see if you have the life to spend this money."
After finishing his sentence, Wei Mingyuan ignored his mother's expression and ran out to find Qiao Shanshan.
He searched everywhere, always feeling that Qiao Shanshan might be hiding on some street and that he might bump into her by chance.
Wei Mingyuan called Qiao Shanshan, but she didn't answer. Wei Mingyuan was a little helpless. He was looking for her everywhere, leaning on his crutches. He hadn't had a haircut in so many days, and his beard looked unkempt.
It takes a man to realize that life is unbearable without a woman in the house.
Wei Mingyuan searched for a long time but couldn't find any trace of Qiao Shanshan.
It wasn't until Wei Mingyuan found a receipt in Qiao Shanshan's closet that things became clear. The receipt belonged to a supermarket located in a residential area about five miles away. What was Qiao Shanshan doing there? Could she be keeping a lover there?
Wei Mingyuan became suspicious and went to look for it in the place where it was published.
The neighborhood was relatively new and not many residents lived there, but Wei Mingyuan still couldn't find Qiao Shanshan.
He came and waited every day, and finally one day, he saw Qiao Shanshan go out to buy groceries.
Wei Mingyuan was furious. He was convinced that Qiao Shanshan was having an affair. Otherwise, why would she move out and run off with all the money in the house? She must have given all the money to some other man. She spoke so righteously, but she was actually cheating on him.
Wei Mingyuan grew angrier the more he thought about it and wanted to teach Qiao Shanshan a lesson.
He followed Qiao Shanshan to her doorstep. When Qiao Shanshan saw him, she was startled. After regaining her composure, she frowned and said, "Why are you here? Didn't you say you were getting a divorce?"
"Divorce! You keep a mistress outside, give all your money to him, and then come home and want a divorce from me, Qiao Shanshan! What are you thinking? What have I, Wei Mingyuan, done wrong to you that you treat me like this!"
