Chapter 375 Lifeless and Dull (2/2)



Upon arriving at Furong Hospital, several doctors stood outside, their expressions grave, exchanging glances and shaking their heads.

After the Marquis of Ningyuan finished communicating with the doctor, his expression gradually turned to disappointment. Shen Tangning then knew that the old lady's illness would not be so easy to cure.

Her gaze fell to the side, where the Lady of the Marquis stood under the eaves, supported by a nanny, her expression numb and cold, never once glancing in the direction of the Marquis of Ningyuan.

She exuded a lifeless aura that made people feel uncomfortable, and this appearance reminded Shen Tangning of her former self.

However, the difference was that the Lady of the Marquis at that time looked down at her with an arrogant expression: "Useless thing, you can't even control your own husband's heart, what right do you have to complain about others?"

Shen Tangning suddenly felt like laughing. Could this be considered a reversal of fortune?

"Eldest sister."

She glanced sideways and saw Shen Xiwei, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, standing before her. She had lost a lot of weight, her chin was sharp and her cheekbones were high, making her look somewhat harsh. She was quietly looking at her.

"Was elder sister laughing just now?"

Her voice was not soft, and Chi Jingyu, who was not far away, also looked over, his eyes flashing with a deep, dark light.

Chi Yan frowned, as if to say something, but Shen Tangning's lips curled up slightly: "I just saw a bird crash headfirst into a tree. Second sister, don't you find that funny?"

Seeing her so frank, Shen Xiwei's face darkened slightly, and her tone became somewhat gloomy: "Eldest sister is truly blessed; she can still smile now."

Shen Tangning's clear eyes rippled with a gentle light: "Second sister, do you believe that I can not only laugh, but also have the last laugh?"

Shen Xiwei's face twisted violently, and she instinctively lunged forward: "Shen Tangning!"

However, before she could get close, Chi Yan blocked her way, shielding her behind him and coldly warning, "What is Aunt Shen doing?"

Chi Jingyu's eyes darkened slightly, and he stepped forward, his tone a little displeased: "Someone, Aunt Shen is overwhelmed with grief, help her back to her room to rest!"

Yu Zhu bit her lip, her eyes filled with terror as she stepped forward and pulled Shen Xiwei away. Her gaze remained fixed on Shen Tangning, filled with a touch of crazy stubbornness.

Chi Yan frowned. Chi Jingyu glanced at Shen Tangning and patiently explained, "Xiwei... has been feeling unwell lately, and her behavior has become increasingly strange. Don't take it to heart."

Chi Yan snorted coldly: "If you have a problem with your brain, you should be kept under surveillance. What if you go out and hurt someone?"

Chi Jingyu's expression also turned somewhat unpleasant: "Second brother, watch your words!"

Shen Tangning stared thoughtfully in the direction Shen Xiwei had left.

The other person's appearance makes it seem like they're not far from going mad.

Now that things have come to this, Chen Xiwei is no longer of any use; keeping her around would only be a hidden danger. It would be better to expose that matter...

Having made her plans, Shen Tangning felt relieved and followed Chi's mother into the house.

The old lady lay on the couch, her eyes drooping and her mouth crooked, her words slurred and drool dripping from the corners of her mouth, unable to utter a single complete sentence.

There was still a faint, unpleasant smell in the room. Shen Tangning looked down at the glaring old lady and spoke gently:

"Grandmother, we've come to see you."

The old lady's words were unclear, and she let out heavy breathing: "Hah..."

She smiled gently and said, "Look, Grandma is happy."

Chi Yan noticed the old lady's fingers trembling a few times, and the corner of his mouth twitched:

Is she trying to anger the old lady to death?
