He Shuyue was dumbfounded, never expecting that Lu Weiguo would dare to divorce her.
At this point, colleagues nearby also began to offer advice. "It's not that bad yet, just send the Bai family's child back."
"That's right. No one would let their daughter suffer. Old Lu was just saying that in a fit of anger. Just send the child back."
Soon after, the colleagues said goodbye and left, leaving only the Lu family of three in the ward.
He Shuyue calmed down and suddenly looked at Lu Ronghui expressionlessly. "I really didn't misjudge you. All you've done is to make Rongjun leave."
"Alright, stop talking and get her back to the Bai family right away."
After all this commotion, Lu Weiguo felt a pang of guilt. In his opinion, it was all the fault of the Bai family's child. But what had happened to his own daughter lately?
I had never thought about these things before; it's true that young children are easily jealous.
As Lu Ronghui lay in bed looking at the couple with their different expressions, she couldn't help but feel a deep sadness.
Doesn't Lu Weiguo know the grievances she's suffered all these years? He does know, but how could he possibly speak up for her in order to maintain the facade of peace within the Lu family?
It's only now that things have escalated, and he wants to resolve this matter to save face for the Lu family.
After Lu Weiguo finished speaking, he went out to find a doctor. He Shuyue walked up to Lu Ronghui with a cold smile.
"Are you satisfied?"
Lu Ronghui smiled faintly and leaned back on the hospital bed, her face full of doubt.
"How could that be?" This is nothing.
"You!" Her smile reignited He Shuyue's anger, and she raised her hand again.
"If you hit me, what will Dad do when he gets home and sees it?"
He Shuyue withdrew her hand and left angrily.

Bai family.
Bai Rongjun was lying in Chen Hongxia's arms in a panic. What should she do? Should Uncle Lu not kick her out?
"Don't panic, your Aunt He will miss you."
“But Rong Hui has already taken the medicine, and Uncle Lu still wants to divorce Aunt He.”
"It's alright. Just avoid Lu Ronghui for now. As long as you get a job and stay in the city, you'll have plenty of time ahead of you. Why should they not treat you like their own child?"
"If Lu Ronghui goes to another place and doesn't come back even once every few years, what feelings will remain between them?"
Will Uncle Lu object later?
"Silly child, as long as you get the job, don't be afraid of anything else. Mom won't let Lu Ronghui off the hook, but you can't go back to the Lu family for the time being."
Chen Hongxia asked Bai Rongjun to stay in Bai Jiamei's room first, and Bai Jiamei sat on the bed looking at her curiously.
"Second sister, I have never taken anything from Lu Ronghui, and I don't know why she hates me so much."
Bai Rongjun clutched her skirt and quickly explained why her second sister's gaze was the same as that of the outsiders.
"Huh?" Bai Jiamei was surprised. "I didn't ask."
"Get out of the way! Your sister finally came back, and instead of helping to tidy up, you're just sitting there."
Bai Jiamei originally shared this room with Bai Jiaying. The room could only fit a four-poster bed, and Chen Hongxia threw Bai Jiamei's things onto it.
“If your sister doesn’t like sleeping in a bunk bed, let her stay downstairs.”
Bai Jiamei certainly didn't object; her objection was useless. Besides, she had gotten quite a few good things from this house today. What was a bed?
"Why are you back?" Bai Xiangdong returned to find Bai Rongjun at home. Wasn't this daughter always at the Lu family's house?
He's working the night shift at the factory today and doesn't know what happened to the Lu family.
"I'll come back and stay for a while."
Bai Xiangdong didn't care. The girl would only stay at his house for a few days at most; he could stay if he wanted.
Looking at Bai Xiangdong's indifferent expression, Bai Rongjun smiled bitterly to herself. Her father had never cared about her, and her mother had never treated her like Aunt He had.
Even her relationship with Bai Jiamei wasn't as deep as her relationship with Lu Ronghui; the Bai family didn't feel like her home.
But now the Lu family is telling her to leave. Does that mean she'll be homeless? No, she can't leave.
He Shuyue ran to the Bai family while Lu Weiguo wasn't paying attention. Rong Jun was so heartbroken when she left today, how could she not take a look at her?
"Shuyue, it's all my fault back then. I couldn't afford to raise our daughter and was afraid she would suffer, so I let you take her away. Now I'm bringing our daughter home."
“Hongxia, how can you say that? I was the one who liked this child back then. Rongjun has always been my daughter.”
Chen Hongxia shook her head with a hint of reluctance. "Forget it, let's just leave the previous mistakes as they are. This child is not meant to be with you."
He Shuyue was shocked. Did Chen Hongxia want to take Rong Jun back? How could she? She had raised her from such a small child to such a beautiful young woman. How could she bear to part with her?
"No, Rong Jun is my child."
"Aunt He" Bai Rongjun kept crying, and Chen Hongxia sighed.
"Let's meet first. Rong Jun considers you her mother."
He Shuyue was also heartbroken and quickly took her daughter into her arms.
"It's okay, I'll pick you up and take you back in a while. None of this is your fault, we're the ones who are sorry."
The two hugged and cried for a while. He Shuyue quickly wiped away her tears when she saw that it was almost time.
"Rong Jun, you should stay at home for a few days."
"Aunt He, will you still come to pick me up in the future? Will you abandon me?" Bai Rongjun's eyes revealed nervousness and pleading, and He Shuyue felt extremely sorry for her.
"How is that possible?"
"But I'm scared."
"Don't worry, we can get the work settled tomorrow, and we won't have to wait until June to take over. It won't make a difference if we wait a month or two."
Bai Rongjun had already prepared all the materials and obtained the review form. As long as she submitted all the materials to her unit, the succession would be confirmed.
"But?"
"It's settled then. Aunt He also wants you to stay and keep me company."
After saying that, He Shuyue hurriedly ran back to the hospital. She couldn't afford to upset Lu Weiguo again.
"Okay, stop worrying. Everything will be over by tomorrow."
Chen Hongxia was also very pleased. No matter how much Lu Ronghui made a fuss, she never expected that He Shuyue would actually give the job to Rong Jun.
"Go to the Lu family's house now and get the materials back. Your Aunt He will come over first thing tomorrow morning and we can go directly to the office to complete the procedures."
Upon hearing this, Bai Jiamei, who was inside the house, was so startled that she immediately sat up. Why was she taking over the job now? Wasn't it supposed to be in June?
She hasn't sold any of the jewelry she took from home yet!
She immediately got up and rushed out of the house. Chen Hongxia watched her retreating figure and frowned deeply.
"Where would a young woman like her go in the middle of the night?"
However, the most important thing now is to get the materials back as soon as possible. Bai Rongjun went to the Lu family immediately, but the Lu family was now empty.
But she searched every corner of the room and couldn't find the materials. She suppressed her unease and went to look through the things that Lu Ronghui had packed for her.
No, none at all!
Where did the things go?
