"Don't want to talk about it?" Huo Lin smiled slightly, his gaze falling on the woman with a hint of inquiry. He knew there were many mysteries surrounding her, and he also knew she had no intention of telling him.
"It's not that important." Xun Ting shook her head; she didn't want to say anything more sentimental.
It's not that children can't cry anymore; those are just minor things.
The phone I was listening to suddenly rang, "Beep beep beep..."
She took her phone out of her pocket, saw the caller ID, and frowned slightly. What did her parents want now? Why were they calling her specifically?
She answered the call without hesitation.
Huo Lin, standing to the side, naturally witnessed the entire scene but did not say anything.
"Hello, are you the daughter of the phone owner? Your mother has just fallen from the building and is seriously injured. Please come to the medical school as soon as possible."
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Xun Ting unconsciously tightened his grip on the phone.
He just saw them today, how could something like this happen so soon?
"What's wrong?" Huo Lin's lips twitched, and he frowned slightly. He could clearly sense the change in the woman's expression after she finished the phone call.
Could it be that her search for her parents has started threatening her again?
It seems my warning last time wasn't harsh enough, which emboldened them.
"I'm going to the hospital, something happened to my mother." Xun Ting put her phone in her pocket, turned around and left impatiently, her steps somewhat hurried.
How did things suddenly turn out like this?
"I'll take you." Huo Lin followed without hesitation, understanding the woman's soft heart, after all, the Xun family had raised him from childhood.
Human hearts are not made of stone.
"Um."
...
...
Upon arriving at the hospital, they saw Xun Ting's father sitting helplessly at the entrance of the operating room. When he saw them coming, he eagerly took Xun Ting's hand.
"Listen to me, Daddy's begging you, please begging Mommy, okay? We may not be related to you by blood, but we raised you! Even if we went too far before, we still didn't get our way, did we?"
"How did things go?" Xun Ting's expression remained unchanged, without the slightest emotion. They had failed entirely because she was lucky, not because her parents were soft-hearted.
If she had shown even a little bit of compassion when she was looking for her parents, she wouldn't be so heartless now.
"I don't know yet. Could you go and pay the surgery fee?" Mr. Xun's words lacked any firmness, after all, Mr. Huo was still there.
The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it, wondering why he hadn't treated Xunting better back then.
If she had treated Xun Ting well back then, with Master Huo as her powerful backer, he wouldn't have ended up in this state.
"Okay." Xun Ting nodded in agreement.
It's unrealistic to expect two people living in a doghouse to come up with the money to pay for surgery.
When she returned after paying the fees, she found the operating room door open, but her father's face showed no smile; he was utterly dejected.
Why did I end up like this? My daughter is dead, and my wife is in a vegetative state.
Seeing the people return, Xun's father's face was filled with hatred. "Xun Ting! You're a jinx! Now your mother is in a vegetative state, are you happy? If you had agreed to take us to live in a big house today, we wouldn't be in this situation!"
As Xun's father spoke, he became more and more agitated, spitting as he spoke, and it looked like he was about to hit Xun Ting.
Huo Lin kicked her away and pulled her into his arms. "Have you forgotten my warning?"
"Hehehe..."
