Chapter 150: An Yinuo Hangs Herself

Magic City First Hospital.

Listening to the busy tone coming from the phone,

the anxious expression on An Chenglan's face instantly froze.

He, An Chenglan, had been a force in Modu's business world for decades—when had he ever been looked down on like this?

He had never even had someone hang up on him first!

An Chenglan's face darkened.

He very much wanted to vent the fury in his heart.

But right now he was at the hospital, not at his own company; throwing a fit here would only make him a laughingstock.

An Chenglan walked into the ward.

He went to check on An Yinuo's condition.

But he saw that An Yinuo, who had originally been unconscious, had woken up at some unknown time and was staring at the ceiling of the ward in a daze.

Her gaze was very calm, leaving one unable to tell what she was thinking.

"Yinuo."

The fury from having his phone hung up just now, and from Song Mo's harsh words, vanished in an instant.

Looking at his daughter's calm eyes,

An Chenglan suddenly felt a twinge of shame.

But he was far too arrogant to ever reflect on his own faults.

Whenever such thoughts arose, he would cut them off immediately.

"Yinuo, are you feeling better?"

"Is there anything you want to eat? Daddy will buy it for you."

An Yinuo stayed silent, saying nothing.

An Chenglan stood awkwardly to one side.

He had originally thought An Yinuo wouldn't speak.

But unexpectedly, she suddenly spoke.

"Dad, were you on the phone with Song Mo just now?"

An Chenglan hesitated for a moment, then finally gritted his teeth and said:

"That's right, I was on the phone with him just now."

"I was thinking of asking him to come visit you."

"Even if I was wrong, my daughter did nothing wrong."

"You like him so much—he should come see you."

Hearing An Chenglan's words, the corners of An Yinuo's lips curved up, and she smiled faintly.

"It's only normal that he doesn't come see me."

"After all, it's our family that let the Song Family down."

An Chenglan felt nothing but disdain in his heart.

【In this world, what is there about letting someone down or not? It's just choices made for the sake of profit】

【I've never felt I let the Song Family down; I only regret that I had no idea at all about the power behind Song Mo, and so I bet on the wrong side】

【But standing in my position at the time, who could have foreseen that?】

Yet An Chenglan still comforted An Yinuo, saying:

"It's all Daddy's fault. If you want to blame someone, blame Daddy."

An Yinuo gently shook her head.

It was unclear whether this meant she didn't care about An Chenglan's words, or that she had forgiven him.

She said: "It doesn't really matter, actually."

"Song Mo never liked me to begin with; now he just dislikes me even more."

"Song Mo isn't going to come visit me. Daddy, don't trouble yourself anymore."

"I know my own body—it's not as serious as the doctors say. What Severe Depression? I'm just in a bit of a bad mood temporarily."

"Dad, you have so many things to deal with at the company."

"You can't possibly stay at the hospital with me the whole time, right? Go back and do what you need to do. There are medical staff here to take care of me—don't worry."

An Chenglan looked at An Yinuo, half believing and half doubting.

"Really?"

A sweet smile bloomed on An Yinuo's face.

"Dad, stop worrying over nothing."

There really were quite a few matters to handle at the company, especially ever since the Leng Family collapsed and the Song Family displayed its abundant political clout.

The An Family was also facing many crises.

A crisis of trust, a crisis of authority, a crisis of cooperation…

An Chenglan had been run ragged these past few days.

This was also why he had demanded An Yinuo go to the Song Family and apologize to them.

An Chenglan agonized for a while.

In the end, he suddenly clenched his teeth hard.

"Alright then, the company really can't do without me. Yinuo, you rest up well in the hospital for a while first. As soon as Daddy's done, I'll come look after you right away."

An Yinuo's mother was not with the An Family, and An Chenglan didn't dare tell her about this either.

After all, An Chenglan's achievements today are inseparable from An Yinuo's mother's dowry back then, and even more inseparable from his father-in-law's support.

He was afraid that if his wife found out about this matter, she would have a falling out with him.

An Chenglan hurriedly left the hospital room.

……

After An Chenglan left, the young nurse gently helped An Yinuo change the hanging IV bottle.

"Miss An, if you have anything troubling you, you can tell me about it too~"

"Speaking out your troubles will make you feel much lighter inside~"

The young nurse gently counseled An Yinuo.

A smile gradually appeared on An Yinuo's face.

The young nurse spoke even more gently. She tried to open up An Yinuo's chatterbox, and unexpectedly it went surprisingly smoothly.

An Yinuo gradually chatted with her about a lot of things.

As they chatted on, the young nurse couldn't help being amused by some jokes An Yinuo told.

The young nurse thought to herself:

【Miss An looks perfectly normal. The doctor even said Miss An has severe depression — I wonder if they got it wrong?】

The young nurse and An Yinuo chatted pleasantly for a long time.

An Yinuo suddenly yawned.

Her eyes were hazy with sleepiness.

The young nurse was a very gentle and considerate person.

Seeing this, she didn't feel right staying any longer to disturb An Yinuo.

"Miss An, if you're sleepy, take a little nap."

The young nurse turned off the light and drew the curtains.

She tiptoed out of the room.

……

Modu at night.

The neon colors were like a rainbow, dreamlike and multicolored, as if hiding countless worries in pink bubbles.

Lin Weiwei's face was haggard.

Even though she had put on delicate makeup, the weariness in her eyes could not be concealed — even with colored contacts on, one could sense her listless spirit.

She arrived at Magic City First People's Hospital.

Lin Weiwei had long known which hospital room An Yinuo was in.

She headed straight for where An Yinuo was.

It was already a bit late now.

The hospital wasn't bustling with people like it was during the day.

Lin Weiwei made her way through.

She stopped in front of a hospital room.

She carefully checked the room number.

Room 301.

She gently pushed the door open. Inside it was pitch black, with no light or sound at all.

Lin Weiwei took out her phone and turned on the flashlight to illuminate.

She fumbled around searching for the light switch.

At the same time, she softly called out An Yinuo's name.

But there was never any response.

In the process of fumbling, she touched something soft.

Her face also felt a bit itchy, as if hair had fallen on a person's face.

"Ah!"

A piercing scream echoed through the hospital room.

Lin Weiwei looked up in terror and saw long hair enveloping the body of a woman wearing a white hospital gown.

It was exactly like a scene straight out of a horror film!

A horror movie had walked right into reality!

Lin Weiwei flipped on the light. Realizing what had happened, she hurriedly lowered An Yinuo down from the air.

She quickly checked for breath — thankfully, there was still some!

Because it was a VIP hospital room, the soundproofing was extremely good.

Lin Weiwei's scream just now hadn't attracted any nurses.

She hurriedly ran outside, ready to find a doctor to save her.

Suddenly!

A hand grabbed her!
