Lin Qi's face was also deathly pale.

Lin Bin's lips were tightly pressed together.

For the current situation of their Lin Family, this incident involving Chen Xiuyue was simply adding frost to snow.

Shu Xia's gaze was cold; back then, when she had experienced a brush with death and woken up, they had all been indifferent, even able to laugh and joke by her hospital bed, and Chen Xiuyue had even been congratulating herself on her good luck.

Now, they all looked so shocked, so worried?

Her legs were not saved, but she hadn't fallen to the point of paraplegia; looking at it this way, Chen Xiuyue was indeed very lucky.

The few of them stood there blankly.

Another long while passed.

It was the doctor who reminded them to go home and rest first, wait for the hospital's notification, and then come to take turns caring for her.

Only then did they belatedly come back to their senses.

"How could it be like this..." Lin Guanda muttered to himself.

What on earth did their Lin Family do wrong? How could all sorts of things happen again and again?

Shu Xia watched their panic with cold eyes.

It should have been like this in her previous life.

It was she who was too foolish in her previous life.

"Since the surgery is already a success, I have things to do, so I'm leaving." Shu Xia glanced at the time; it was eleven o'clock at night.

Her flight tomorrow was at ten o'clock in the morning, and she had to be at the airport by eight.

She had no time to watch them perform a tear-jerker here.

"Wait! Your mother is already like this, and you actually still want to leave?" Lin Guanda called out to stop Shu Xia once again.

How could she be so heartless?

Lin Qi also frowned, looking at the lack of even a shred of worry on Shu Xia's face, or even a shred of sadness, and he said in a deep voice: "You weren't like this before."

"You will get your retribution sooner or later!" Lin Xu was nearly angered to death.

They were heartbroken right now, yet Shu Xia was like a stranger, not caring about their mother's life or death at all!

Looking at this whole family shamelessly accusing her, Shu Xia laughed: "The doctor said to leave; if you are willing to wait here, that is your business. I have no obligation to support Ms. Chen. Since you love your wife so much, and are also especially filial to your parents, then think about how to take care of a patient paralyzed in bed. As for playing that moral kidnapping game with me, what were you doing before?"

With their selfish and self-interested personalities, if they were asked to take care of Chen Xiuyue with all their hearts, they could do it for two or three days, but after a long time, they would definitely treat Chen Xiuyue as an eyesore and a stumbling block.

"You! That is your mother! Can you leave with a clear conscience? You move back home now, wait to take good care of your mother at home later, and you will come to the hospital to take care of her during this period. We are all very busy, and Miaomiao's health is not very good and she cannot be overworked; only you are free." Lin Guanda issued the order directly without even thinking.

Shu Xia was truly shocked into laughter by Lin Guanda's shamelessness, "You're sick!"

Who gave Lin Guanda the courage?

Lin Miao had not dared to speak, but thinking about how Chen Xiuyue would only be able to lie in bed and be taken care of for her daily needs, she wanted to hide.

She certainly didn't want to take care of her at home.

Instead, she now especially hoped that Shu Xia would return home.

"Shu Xia! Dad is giving you a chance to prove yourself; as long as you can take good care of Mom, we will all accept you and treat you as one of the family!" Lin Xu said angrily.

Lin Qi frowned, "Xia Xia, come home."

Lin Bin said in a deep voice: "You are, after all, a member of our Lin Family. Now that we are giving you a chance to return, and have given you a way out, don't miss this opportunity."

"Sister, Mom has encountered this disaster; after she wakes up, she will definitely be very sad and upset. If you can accompany Mom through this difficult time, you will definitely become very important in Mom's heart," Lin Miao also urged.

Shu Xia truly witnessed the shamelessness of these people once again.

To be able to display shamelessness so openly and as if it were only right and proper, this family was the only one.

"The whole family is mentally ill; since you're already at the hospital, go get checked out! Don't come out and act crazy again." After throwing out this sentence, Shu Xia walked away decisively.

She still needed to get a good rest tonight to catch her flight tomorrow.
