Chapter 470: Breaking Her Thoughts

~7 min read 1,353 words

Li Xuan felt a bit excited inside; it would be great if Si Rong's daughter were truly dead.

She felt a sense of satisfaction whenever she saw tears on Si Rong's face.

But the further she walked, the more wrong Li Xuan felt things were; why did so many people seem to be looking into her daughter Liang Yu's hospital room?

"Xiao Yu!" she shouted.

The crowd spontaneously cleared a path for her, and as Li Xuan walked in, she saw several young nurses and two people who looked like leaders standing in the room.

The leader with the square face was the hospital director, looking very stern, "Are you the parents of these two children?"

Li Xuan nodded, "Yes, what's wrong? Has my daughter's wound worsened?"

At this moment, a "pfft" of laughter came from the crowd.

Li Xuan turned back, discovered it was Ming Zi, and glared at her viciously.

"What are you laughing at? What's so funny? Mocking someone else's daughter for being hospitalized today, who knows if your own daughter will be hospitalized tomorrow!"

Li Xuan finished speaking in a cold voice and entered the room, closing the door behind her.

But the crowd didn't leave; instead, they all pressed against the outside of the room door to look in. Looking from the inside out, it was a dense mass of heads.

"These people really have no manners!" Li Xuan turned around, wanting to curse them out.

But she was stopped by the director, "You had better stop worrying about others and focus on your own children; that is what's most important."

Only then did Li Xuan realize that perhaps Xiao Yu or Shen Chi had committed some error, but she didn't like hearing the old man talk like that.

"Of course I will manage my own children. They are still young; even if they said the wrong thing or did the wrong thing, there is no need for you to blow it out of proportion like this!"

Shen Lan grabbed her, "Shut up for a moment and let the man finish speaking."

Many times, he didn't know what had been wrong with his brain back then to marry a fool like Li Xuan.

Since such a big figure had come to wait for them specifically, it couldn't possibly be a small matter.

It was just that he couldn't think of what these two children could have done to alarm the director.

Could it have something to do with Si Rong?

"Director, please speak. What happened to my son and daughter?"

The director's expression was ugly; with so many people having seen this scene in the middle of the night yesterday, he estimated that within two days, their hospital would be completely famous throughout Huaiyang.

"Are they both your biological children?"

Shen Lan nodded, "Yes, we've done a paternity test."

The director closed his eyes in despair and glared at the two of them, "Sigh, last night in the middle of the night, they were in the ward doing... that kind of thing."

"What kind of thing?" Li Xuan still didn't understand.

"That is, the kind of thing you do with your husband."

Shen Lan and Li Xuan were both terrified.

Before them was the stern director, who likely wasn't joking with them. Looking at Shen Chi, who had his head lowered and looked guilty, Shen Lan already believed it eighty percent.

"Impossible," Li Xuan couldn't believe it, "Is someone slandering them? They are biological siblings! I know!"

She pointed outside, "Was it those two women who slandered them? They have a grudge against me, so they want to harm my children. Director, you must not believe it. It's impossible, it's all just those people talking nonsense..."

The director's lapel was nearly deformed from her gripping it. Shen Lan pried her hands away, and the Principal's clothes finally escaped disaster.

"Enough, keep your voice down. Is this kind of thing something to be proud of?"

Such a scandalous affair should be kept under wraps as quickly as possible.

"Director, don't worry. We will handle the discharge procedures in a moment and won't stay here any longer."

"Hmm," the Principal saw that there was finally a sensible person, and his expression softened slightly, "Go handle it quickly. Children still need to be educated properly. It really, really is too outrageous."

"Yes, thank you, we will."

The moment the director stepped out of the ward door, Li Xuan's body went limp on the floor.

"What is going on? What on earth is going on?"

How could her children do such a shameful thing? And in a place like a hospital, under the eyes of everyone.

And they were seen by those two stinking women, Si Rong and Ming Zi.

Her face, her reputation, had been thrown into the dirt.

"Why are you still standing there? Go home!" She shouted at the two children for the first time.

The family, like clowns, went through the discharge procedures amidst the surrounding gossip.

Back home, Shen Chi took the blame upon himself.

"Dad, Mom, if you want to blame someone, blame me. I was momentarily possessed, it has nothing to do with Xiao Yu."

Shen Lan slapped him hard, "I'll beat you to death, you beast! Who couldn't you have set your sights on? Xiao Yu is of the same mother as you!"

"I'm not human, it's all my fault," Shen Chi didn't know what had happened to him last night either; it was as if he had been controlled by some drug.

"Alright, stop hitting him," Li Xuan felt heartache for her son, "You must have been plotted against."

She suspected, "Xiao Yu's ward was right next to her daughter's ward. It must be that she saw I'm living a good life now and came up with this low-down method."

"That vixen Si Rong is not a good thing! It must be her who harmed our son and daughter!"

Liang Yu's lowered brows and eyes were slightly unnatural.

Last night, she had wanted to consummate things with Jiang Sinian, but she hadn't expected Si Rong to notice.

She had brought so many people to expose her scandal just to completely sever her thoughts of being with Jiang Sinian.

What a ruthless woman.

However, she, Liang Yu, liked a challenge. One day, she would definitely achieve her goal.

"You two go out first and reflect in your respective rooms."

Shen Lan closed their door and looked at Li Xuan with resentment, "If you aren't blaming this person, you're blaming that one. Why don't you blame yourself? If it weren't for the rotten idea you had back then, wanting Si Rong to raise our children, how could they have been abducted by human traffickers at such a young age? And how could this have happened?"

"You're blaming me? You're blaming me now?" Li Xuan couldn't stand such accusations, as if all the dissatisfaction in their lives now was caused by her alone, "Didn't you agree to that plan too? Didn't you see how beautiful Si Rong was and want to marry her? Shen Lan, your eyes went straight the first time you saw Si Rong. Perhaps your son inherited this from you, you old lecher!"

Slap—

"You hit me? I've put up with you for a long time!" Li Xuan lunged fiercely, straddling Shen Lan and slapping his face repeatedly with both hands like large cattail-leaf fans.

"It's been so many years, yet every time I mention Si Rong, you act like a cat with its fur standing on end. Still haven't given up? Si Rong is living so happily with Jiang Cheng right now, who knows how happy they are! You can just spend your whole life as a rat in the gutter, full of envy, jealousy, and hate!"

Shen Lan rolled over, regaining the upper hand, and pounded his fists thud-thud against Li Xuan's face.

"Aren't you jealous? Don't you hate it? Don't you want to marry a man with money and power? It's a pity, you just don't have that good fortune; you can only be entangled with a man like me."
