He Shuyue turned her head and saw that it was her son whom she hadn't seen for a long time. Lu Ronghui burst into tears the moment she saw her brother.
"Son, why are you back?"
Lu Yang didn't answer, but silently walked towards his sister on the hospital bed. The last time he met her, she was a shy and cheerful little girl, but now she was lying weakly in bed.
"elder brother"
Lu Ronghui threw herself into Lu Yang's arms and cried uncontrollably. The two siblings hadn't seen each other for several years. One New Year, she couldn't help but run to his post to find him.
When the brother and sister were reunited with their families, they went through a lot of trouble to find a small shop that was still open.
Amidst the twinkling lights of countless homes and the dazzling fireworks, only the two of them sat silently facing their wine glasses, drinking one cup after another.
Are they alright?
Lu Ronghui's vision was already blurred with tears. Lu Yang didn't want to ask her for answers; he was just drunk and his overwhelming emotions could no longer be concealed.
He gave a wry smile and picked up his wine glass again.
How did things get to this point?
In her eyes, he had always been a pillar of strength who could withstand any storm, and at that moment, the loneliness emanating from him pierced her heart.
She came back, but her older brother didn't. She hoped he would be happy for the rest of his life.
Therefore, she will never let the Bai family or Bai Rongjun go in this lifetime.
Lu Ronghui had been holding her breath the whole time, and now seeing Lu Yang cry again, she was so tired from crying that she fell asleep in his arms.
With a livid face, Lu Yang tucked the blanket around her and turned to walk out of the ward.
He Shuyue was initially overjoyed to see her son, but Lu Ronghui's crying made her realize something was wrong.
This daughter has always wanted to scheme to send Rongjun away, and now she's pulled this stunt. She's afraid her son will believe her.
And what about work? Has she found out? If she has, will she tell Lu Yang?
The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became. She saw that her son's face was so dark it looked like it was about to drip water. She had never seen Lu Yang so angry before.
"Sons, why are you back?"
Lu Yang didn't say anything, but simply led them all out of the ward and closed the door.
When can I be discharged from the hospital?
"Oh? The doctor said I can go home to rest."
"Then I'll take her home when she wakes up."
He Shuyue nodded quickly. She waited anxiously for a while but didn't hear what her son was saying, so she looked up at him.
He immediately sent chills down her spine as he stared at her with his icy gaze.
"son?"
"Mom, is there anything you want to say to me?"
He Shuyue didn't understand what he meant and just shook her head hesitantly. Lu Yang smiled and then stopped talking.
"Didn't you go to join the army? Why are you back?" He Shuyue felt uneasy at his laughter and quickly asked Song Qing.
Song Qing was patting An'an's back, carefully comforting her. Children naturally have a fear of hospitals, and when she saw her aunt lying on the hospital bed in a hospital gown, she thought she had some serious illness.
She was so scared that she cried along with Lu Ronghui.
He Shuyue became increasingly dissatisfied. How could someone who couldn't even soothe a child be worthy of her son?
"Auntie is fine, she'll be home soon." Lu Yang took An'an and patted her in his arms.
"If we hadn't come back, how would we have known that such a big thing had happened at home?"
“It’s nothing serious. Rong Hui is just being petty. She’s just trying to pressure Mom and Dad. Nothing bad will happen.” He Shuyue’s tone was not worried, but rather impatient and angry at the whole thing.
Lu Yang gave a sarcastic smile. "Mom, I've already gotten home."
"Huh?" He Shuyue didn't understand what Lu Yang meant. After a while, she realized that he meant he already knew the whole story.
She wanted to explain that this matter had nothing to do with Rong Jun, but Lu Yang had already turned around and handed An'an to Song Qing.
"I can keep an eye on things here, you guys go home first." After traveling by train for several days, they decided to go back and rest.
We'll discuss other matters after Rong Hui wakes up.
Song Qing thought he had something to say to He Shuyue alone, so she took An'an back to wait for him.
She was also shocked that day. These things never happened in her previous life. Bai Rongjun had always had a harmonious relationship with Lu's parents. Ronghui was much more transparent in her family than she was. After graduating from high school, she went directly to the countryside.
Bai Rongjun took a job and stayed in the city, while the Lu family's two children, one in the Northwest and one in the Northeast, were always kept at home by her, their adopted daughter.
When Lu Ronghui returned to the city after taking the college entrance examination in 1977, she was assigned to work in the south after graduating from university, which was also thousands of miles away from home.
At that time, she was in Ancheng and only knew that after Bai Rongjun got married, she lived with Lu's parents and they even took care of the children.
In her memory, at least before going to Ancheng, Lu Ronghui and Bai Rongjun had a very good relationship.
Although He Shuyue usually cares more about Bai Rongjun, she is not so biased as to force her youngest daughter to drink medicine.
"Son, you stay here and keep watch. Mom has things to do too." He Shuyue didn't want to stay here at all. What could possibly happen to her? Staying here was just a waste of time.
Upon arriving at the hospital entrance, He Shuyue frowned as she scrutinized Song Qing, clearly dissatisfied with every aspect of her daughter-in-law.
They had initially agreed with the Song family that they would have a fake marriage and then divorce in two years. However, they never expected that their son would be bewitched by this woman and would refuse to agree to the fake marriage no matter what.
Song Hai was more than happy to accept this; it would be better if they didn't get a divorce, then his daughter wouldn't suffer any loss.
What could He Shuyue do? She had finally reached an agreement with Song Hai to divorce in two years, but she never expected that her foolish son would fall for Song Qing.
They're happy to offer their warm welcome to someone who doesn't reciprocate.
Despite Song Qing's seemingly unwilling demeanor, she managed to tie Lu Yang down with her child within six months of their marriage.
The Song family are truly birds of a feather; just thinking about them makes me grit my teeth in hatred.
However, she had more important things to do and didn't have time to pick a fight with Song Qing, so she hurriedly ran away.
She left in such a hurry that she didn't notice Bai Rongjun rushing to the hospital.
"Sister Song Qing?" Bai Rongjun actually saw Song Qing outside the hospital. Wasn't she supposed to be with the army?
She quickly looked behind Song Qing and thankfully didn't see Lu Yang.
"You're back?" Lu Yang shouldn't have come back with her, right? If he finds out that Lu Ronghui actually took medicine, will he blame her or even kick her out?
Bai Rongjun was supposed to go to her workplace with He Shuyue to complete some paperwork today, but unexpectedly, all the paperwork and documents disappeared.
She searched every corner of the house, but there was nothing there.
She cried at home, realizing she couldn't just sit and wait to die. If Lu Ronghui knew, she would definitely tell her. She probably didn't notice that the materials were hidden somewhere.
She came here to repair her relationship with Lu Ronghui and, incidentally, to sound out her opinion.
Song Qing thought that Lu Yang probably didn't want to see Bai Rongjun in the hospital. Judging from his expression just now, he planned to wait until Lu Ronghui woke up before settling scores.
"Lu Yang is also in the hospital."
