In front of the hospital room door.

Seeing the two of them arrive, Lin Bin's expression turned gloomy, "Why have you only just arrived now?"

"Because we were worried about Mom's condition, we couldn't sleep at all last night," Lin Qi said, making up a random excuse.

Mom's condition was beyond saving; she would be bedridden for the rest of her life and would need someone by her side to care for her at all times. Thinking about it was useless, so it was better to accept it.

Lin Bin's expression darkened even further, as if he had seen through Lin Qi and Lin Miao, "I will come at this time tomorrow as well."

Then he stood up and prepared to leave.

After walking two steps, he thought of something and said to the two of them, "Lin Xu and I have thought of a way to force Shu Xia Xia to come back and take care of Mom. You two had better cooperate when the time comes."

Lin Qi naturally agreed, "Tell us in advance what we need to do."

Lin Miao replied obediently, "Understood, Second Brother."

"I'm leaving."

The two of them subsequently entered the hospital room and looked at Chen Xiuyue, who was lying on the bed with a grim and deathly pale complexion.

"How are you feeling today, Mom?" Lin Miao asked in a soft, gentle voice.

"How am I feeling? How can you even ask that? My legs are gone, and from now on I can only lie in bed waiting to die. Are you all just waiting for me to die? I, for one, will not let you get your wish! Coming so late, isn't it just because you don't want to take care of me?" Chen Xiuyue roared.

A car accident had allowed her to see the true faces of these people in her family.

They had absolutely no patience for her and all kept her at a distance.

And then there was Lin Miao, who used to swear that she was the best mother in the world and claimed she wanted to be filial to her, but how had she treated her since coming to the hospital these past few days?

The three sons were even more sullen, as if they were the ones who had been amputated!

Most importantly, her husband Lin Guanda had not come to see her at all these past two days. Even if things at the company were tricky, did he really not even have the time to see her?

It was all just excuses!

Only now did she realize how good Shu Xia Xia was. These past two days, she had been thinking about the past more and more frequently. When she was sick, Miaomiao only showed concern with her words, but Shu Xia Xia had truly tried to find ways to help her alleviate her discomfort.

Yet at the time, she had felt that Shu Xia Xia was being meddlesome and was not as likable as Miaomiao.

Lin Miao's eyes immediately turned red, and she looked at Lin Qi with grievance, "Brother, I... I didn't mean to make Mom angry. I was just worried about Mom's condition, so I asked."

The elegant noblewoman she once was was now no different from a shrew.

It would have been better if...

She had died in that car accident!

The family must all be thinking that now.

Lin Qi immediately frowned, "Mom, how can you say that about Miaomiao? Ever since your car accident, Miaomiao has been crying almost every day, worrying about your health and thinking about how to make you happier. Yet you treat Miaomiao like this, Mom. Can we please be reasonable?"

"You!" Chen Xiuyue was so angry her eyes were splitting.

Pushing all the blame onto her?

"I don't want you here! Go and get Shu Xia Xia! I only want to see Shu Xia Xia right now!" Chen Xiuyue now had only one demand: to see Shu Xia Xia.

Lin Miao sighed helplessly, "Mom, we are already doing our best to find Shu Xia Xia. She... she doesn't care about your life or death at all. The day after your surgery was successful, she went on a trip. It's obvious she won't come to take care of you."

"She must come! Even if she doesn't want to come, you must find a way to make her come!" Chen Xiuyue didn't care about any of that.

For some reason, there was a voice in her head constantly saying: See Shu Xia Xia! You must make Shu Xia Xia come!

Lin Qi's expression was somber, and he said helplessly, "We will try our best."

——

Jing City Airport.

After getting off the plane, people from the Laozhai came to pick them up.

They were taken directly to the Laozhai.

Qiao Nainai looked at the two people before her and laughed happily, "Did you have a good time?"
