Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Just as Wei Man opened his mouth, the sound of Mother Shen and Shen Rongyin’s voices could be heard outside the ward, and he subconsciously shut up.
The door was pushed open and Mother Shen entered with red and swollen eyes. Wei Man subconsciously took a few steps back.
Mother Shen didn’t notice Wei Man’s movements, but first said to Wei Xiao in concern, “Old Wei, is Chang Qing okay? I just found out from Rongyin that Chang Qing accidentally fell from a window on the third floor! Rongyin wanted to reach out to stop her, but was a step too slow. She was also scared silly when something happened to Chang Qing, so she immediately asked me to come and help! Old Wei, if you need any help, just say it.”
Mother Shen spoke sincerely.
Shen Rongyin’s eyes were red as she looked at Chang Qing on the hospital bed in concern. She said worriedly, “Brother Wei, is she okay? It’s my fault. I didn’t expect something like this to happen to her. She just fell and I subconsciously wanted to grab her, but I didn’t expect, didn’t expect…”
At that point, she looked at the pale Wei Man in particular, wiped her tears and continued guiltily, “If I had known that something would happen to her, I wouldn’t have taken the initiative to talk to her, and distracted her.’
From the moment he rushed to the hospital, Wei Xiao had the vague feeling that his wife’s fall from the third floor was a bit fishy. In addition, Shen Rongyin had suddenly gone to visit his house. He felt that this woman definitely had something to do with his wife’s fall. Looking at the woman crying in front of him, Wei Xiao might have really believed her nonsense if he didn’t know her true colors.
At the thought that this woman had been visiting his house from time to time these past two days, his right eyelid kept twitching. For one moment, there was only fear in his eyes.
Wei Xiao’s face was stiff and he didn’t want Mother Shen and Shen Rongyin to stay any longer. He said with a stiff face, “Madam Shen, Miss Shen, something happened to my wife, so I’m afraid she won’t be able to receive you now. I’ll look into her fall from the third floor.”
Mother Shen’s face subconsciously darkened; she wasn’t pleased with Wei Xiao’s words. Firstly, she had indeed come to visit Wei Xiao’s wife, and secondly, she wanted to make it clear that it had nothing to do with her daughter. She didn’t want her daughter to be implicated because of the Wei family’s misfortune.
News spread quickly in the military district. Bad luck had struck her daughter once more, and she just so happened to be present when the other party accidentally
fell. How wronged would she be?
She originally thought that Wei Xiao was a sensible man, but who would have thought that he would take his anger out on her daughter? Mother Shen was about to speak, when Shen Rongyin interrupted her. “Brother Wei, it’s all my fault. I was the one who distracted her!”
As she apologized, Shen Rongyin was very sincere and her eyes were red from crying.
Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and observed the other party, only to see a dark flash of suspicion in her eyes. Although she did suspect this woman, they couldn’t alert the enemy yet. Chi Shuyan subconsciously tugged gently at Father Wei’s clothes. Father Wei quickly understood and said to Mother Shen and Shen Rongyin in a much better tone, “Madam Shen, Miss Shen, I’m sorry. My tone wasn’t good just now. Although my wife’s injuries are very serious, I also know that it was her bad luck. It has nothing to do with Miss Shen!”
Mother Shen finally heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Father Wei’s words. Shen Rongyin still looked concerned and worried as she looked at Chang Qing on the bed from time to time. She said, “Brother Wei, is she really fine? Are her injuries serious? She should be fine if she was transferred to an ordinary ward!”
Without waiting for Father Wei to speak, Chi Shuyan suddenly said, “Aunt Shen, although Aunt Wei fell from the third floor, it’s nothing serious except for some fractures!”
She paused and gave the Shen woman a few more looks. Seeing her stiff face, Chi Shuyan felt that this matter wasn’t so simple. However, she said helplessly and worriedly, “It’s just that Aunt Wei fell from the third floor after all. She has a serious concussion. Dr. Zheng said that there might be residual effects. It’s possible that Aunt Wei lost her memory!”
Apart from Qi Zhenbai, the Wei father and sons didn’t know why Chi Shuyan said that, but they instinctively looked worried.
Mother Shen was both glad and worried as she consoled the Wei father and sons. On the other hand, Shen Rongyin didn’t seem to believe Chi Shuyan as she looked at her from time to time.
Not long after, the attending doctor, Dr. Zheng, came over with a few nurses and said that they would examine Mother Wei again, and her head in particular.
Without waiting for the others to speak, Shen Rongyin took the lead and asked Dr. Zheng directly with a shrewd yet worried face, “Dr. Zheng, is Sister-in-law Wei okay? Brother Wei said he was worried that she might have lost her memory after suffering a concussion. She should be fine, right?”
Father Wei’s face changed.
Seeing the worried look on Shen Rongyin’s face, Dr. Zheng didn’t think much of it. He instinctively wanted to deny it, but when he thought about how there indeed could be residual effects after a concussion, and how she had fallen from the third floor, Dr. Zheng very much suspected that he might have been wrong during the earlier checkup. It shouldn’t be a minor concussion. He nodded. “If the concussion is serious, it is indeed possible! If Sister-in-law Wei really fell from the third floor, I’m afraid…”
A dark light flashed in the depths of Shen Rongyin’s eyes.
The doctor was used to telling the truth. Seeing Father Wei’s face, Dr. Zheng subconsciously thought that the other party’s face changed because of his words.
He immediately added, “The heavens will definitely watch over Sister-in-law Wei!”
Father Wei had already faintly sensed Shen Rongyin’s probing just now. He was afraid that Dr. Zheng would reveal the truth about his wife, and that this woman,
Shen Rongyin, had ill intentions.
At that moment, Qi Zhenbai reacted first and found an excuse to leave the ward to talk with Dr. Zheng.
Soon, Aunt Wei was pushed out by the nurses again. Although Wei Ting and Wei Xiao had heaved sighs of relief just now, they couldn’t calm down since their mother hadn’t woken up.
Wei Ting and Wei Man followed Mother Wei’s bed out.
Shen Rongyin indeed wanted to find out more about Chang Qing, but the Wei father and sons didn’t give her a chance after that.
Mother Shen also didn’t want to stay in the hospital for long. After all, truthfully speaking, the Shen family and the Wei family weren’t that close..
