Chapter 516: A Slap

Huang Weiwei was slumped on the ground, a patch of bright red seeping through her trouser leg, appearing very striking under the light.

My head buzzed, and I almost fainted.

This was a sign of a miscarriage! That was my first judgment.

My mom was still in my arms; she opened her cloudy eyes, seemingly seeing the blood under Huang Weiwei. I felt my mom's whole body twitching, and when I looked at her again, she had already fainted.

Stay calm in the face of danger! I secretly recited the slogan to myself, laid my mom flat on the sofa, and grabbed the phone to call.

The operator asked where I was, and I looked around with a pair of terrified eyes, actually unable to answer.

It was Huang Weiwei who weakly told me the house number. I reported it like this, shouting desperately, "Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

The other party didn't care about my urgency at all and hung up the phone unhurriedly.

I held the receiver, stunned, not knowing what to do.

"Call my mom." Huang Weiwei finally cried out, her whimpering sound echoing in my ears, making me even more at a loss.

"Give me the phone." She called me weakly.

I handed her the phone blankly, looking at her with hollow eyes.

"Hurry and check on Mom!" She instructed me.

I hurriedly went to check on my mom again. My mom's teeth were clenched, her face was blue, and the faint breath from her nose scared me into crying too.

I called out to Mom, shaking her shoulders, but Mom never opened her eyes, making my heart fall into an ice cellar.

Huang Weiwei told her mom on the phone that Chen Yazhi had an accident. Just as I was about to answer the phone, the door was knocked.

The 120 people came quite quickly. But they only brought a stretcher up.

I let them carry Huang Weiwei downstairs, while I held my mom in my arms and ran out anxiously.

Only after sending them both to the ambulance did half of the stone in my heart fall.

The ambulance wailed as it drove, and my heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife. If anything happened to either of the two people in front of me, I would regret it for the rest of my life and would not be able to redeem myself even with a hundred deaths.

The lights on the roof of the car shook like my pounding heart, the colors of the lights intertwined, shaking my world into pieces.

Huang Weiwei calmed down, she reached out, held my hand, and said softly, "Don't be afraid!"

I gently squeezed her hand; her hand was incomparably cold, seemingly without any blood color.

The doctor had already performed preliminary first aid, and she and my mom both had oxygen tubes inserted into their nostrils.

In a few minutes, the ambulance arrived at the hospital. As soon as the car stopped, the nurse dragged over a stretcher, put them each on a cart, and ran toward the emergency room like lightning.

I wanted to follow in, but was pushed out the door by the nurse, who scolded me with a dark face.

The bench outside the emergency room was full of people, each face filled with worry. I looked around but couldn't find a place to sit, so I had to slide down along the wall and sit on the smooth floor.

Only then did I feel that my whole body felt like it had fallen apart, and I no longer had the strength to stand up.

After sitting for a while, I fumbled to take out a cigarette from my pocket. Just as I was about to light it, I looked up and saw a large "No Smoking" sign hanging on the opposite wall, smiled bitterly, shook my head, put the cigarette back into the cigarette case, and waited patiently for news from the emergency room.

Half an hour passed, and no news came out. I started to panic again, supported myself against the wall to stand up, and leaned against the emergency room door, wanting to listen to the sounds inside.

Just as I walked to the door, a rush of footsteps came from behind. I turned my head and saw Chen Yazhi rolling over like the wind. Behind her, Minister Huang Shan followed with a blue face.

I panicked and stammered, "Mom, you're here?"

Chen Yazhi glared at me fiercely and asked, "How did you handle things?"

I originally wanted to defend myself, but thinking about how inappropriate it would be to defend myself at this time, I opened my mouth but made no sound.

Chen Yazhi cursed, "Beast."

Before I could recover, she swung her hand and gave me a slap.

This slap knocked me out directly; I was stunned on the spot, speechless.

From the time I met Huang Weiwei until now, she had never scolded me, let alone hit me!

Although she wasn't satisfied with me dating her daughter at first, she loved her daughter dearly after all. From the time we met to the time we fell in love, step by step, we had bathed in so much of her maternal love!

In Chen Yazhi's eyes, I was just a grassroots person. I had neither a prominent family background nor prominent interpersonal relationships. A person like me, whether in politics or business, would never have a day to stand out.

She seemed to have seen through my future long ago. She once told me that if I could reach the position of Minister Huang Shan in this life, it would be because her old Huang family had done good deeds in their previous life!

When she said this, I sneered in my heart. If your old Huang family did good deeds in their previous life, the retribution should be on your old Huang family, how could it manifest on my old Chen family?

I didn't understand whether my old Chen family's ancestors did good deeds or not. However, my grandfather was blown to death by the devils' shells. From this point of view, my old Chen family didn't do many good deeds even if they did, otherwise, they wouldn't have ended up with no bones left.

Thinking about it this way, the image of the old Huang family in my heart was indeed much taller. But I had been influenced by my father since I was a child, believing that men were the world, and women were always just a flower in the world of men. Therefore, no matter how much merit the old Huang family had accumulated in their previous life, as long as they married into my old Chen family, it was worthless.

Chen Yazhi accepted me because she found out that He Zhi was my uncle. Of course, I knew nothing about these things. I just saw Chen Yazhi's smile and kindness when I went to her house with Huang Weiwei one day.

Chen Yazhi's slap was very loud, and it could be heard throughout the corridor.

I didn't cover my burning cheek, hung my face, and apologized, "Mom, I'm sorry. I didn't take good care of Weiwei."

Minister Huang Shan, standing on the side, snorted, his two gazes like cold swords, seemingly wanting to pierce my chest.

"I won't nag you now!" He spat out this sentence, his eyes like an eagle, scratching my heart.

"It's fine if Weiwei is okay. If anything happens to her, I won't be finished with you." Chen Yazhi said viciously, "Even if your whole old Chen family is compensated, it won't be worth half a finger of my Weiwei."

I nodded submissively, not daring to meet her gaze. I knew she wanted me dead right now!

Huang Weiwei returned to our home, and Chen Yazhi always thought it was my idea. Originally, she had people to serve her at her maiden home, living a life where she opened her mouth for food and stretched out her hands for clothes. She was afraid of freezing in cold weather and afraid of being sunburned in hot weather. In the eyes of Chen Yazhi and her husband, Huang Weiwei was more than a bright pearl, a treasure in the palm of their hands. She was their life, their hope, their future.

The door of the emergency room opened, and a nurse came out and shouted loudly, "Who is Huang Weiwei's family?"

I hurriedly answered, almost leaning against the nurse's chest, and asked with a dry voice, "How is the situation?"

The nurse rolled her eyes at me and said, "Don't worry!"

This sentence was like an imperial decree, and also like a gospel from heaven. I almost danced with joy. I couldn't care about anything else, turned around and smiled at Chen Yazhi, and said loudly, "Mom, the nurse said it's fine."

Chen Yazhi followed and asked the nurse, "Are both the adult and the child fine?"

As soon as the nurse saw her temperament, she knew that the middle-aged woman in front of her was not an ordinary person, so her voice became much gentler, unlike when she was talking to me, fierce as if she wanted to eat someone!

"Don't worry! But we still need to observe." After the nurse finished speaking, she opened the door and was about to go in.

I grabbed her and asked, "Nurse, what about my mom?"

"Who is your mom?"

"The old lady who was sent in with my wife." I started to panic again. My wife is fine, I hope nothing happens to my mom!

The nurse thought for a while and said, "Oh, that person is not in the same room as us."

I still wanted to ask, but she ignored me and went in by herself.

I stood at the door, lost, wanting to cry.

Chen Yazhi saw my ghostly appearance and asked with concern, "What happened to your mom?"

I cried and said, "My mom fell, and she was already unconscious when she was sent here. I don't know what the situation is now, what the situation is."

I was so anxious that I circled in the corridor, seeing no one, and my mind was blank.

Chen Yazhi became anxious too, supported the door crack and looked in, saying while looking, "I hope nothing happens!"

The door was pushed open again, and Huang Weiwei was lying on the hospital bed. As soon as she saw us, tears welled up.

We surrounded her, Chen Yazhi hugged her daughter and shouted with heartache, "Darling, you scared me to death."

Minister Huang Shan also went over to hold his daughter's hand, comforting her softly.

I originally wanted to speak, but was urged by the nurse to send her to the ward, which directly sealed my mouth.

Chen Yazhi and her husband followed their daughter to the ward, but I didn't leave. My mom hadn't come out yet!

Huang Weiwei was fine, and I breathed a sigh of relief. My mom's life or death was still unknown, and the heart that had been relaxed was suspended again.

I went to touch the cigarette again, my hand touched the mobile phone in my pocket, and I felt much more settled.

I took out the phone and called my aunt without thinking.

When my aunt heard me say this on the phone, I hadn't cried yet, but she started crying first.

While crying, she scolded me, "Dead Xiao Feng, you've killed someone this time."

I pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's not that bad. My mom hasn't died yet."

"Are you hoping your mom dies!" My aunt scolded me viciously, "Which hospital are you in?" ===== CHAPTER 517 =====
