Chapter 197: You Used Prohibited Drugs
Chen Yu had seen Guo Li's condition; it was quite serious, with one arm unable to move, which could very likely lead to full-body paralysis. Yet now, after Chen Yu inserted a few needles, her arm could actually move. Could this really not be a coincidence?
As Chen Yu removed the Silver Needles from Guo Li's body, her right arm became completely free to move.
"How are you feeling, Mom?" Guo Wanrong asked nervously.
"I'm fine, I feel great. My heart was pounding hard just a moment ago, and my head felt muddled and kept throbbing, but now it's basically fine," Guo Li said with pleasant surprise. "This friend of yours is truly amazing, thank you."
"No need to thank me, Auntie. In Western Medicine, your illness is quite serious, but in Traditional Chinese Medicine, it really doesn't count as much of an illness," Chen Yu said with a faint smile. "However, after you go back, you should still take some Traditional Chinese Medicine to recuperate and keep your diet light."
"Alright, alright, I understand. Let's discharge from the hospital, Wanrong. I need to go out and properly thank these two friends of yours," Guo Li laughed.
"Impossible, this must be the use of some prohibited drug. I've heard of these kinds of people who walk the world, using some prohibited drugs to temporarily stimulate the human body's immune system, making people look like normal people. Once the drug's effect wears off, it will be very serious."
That Yisheng was stunned, and he shouted, "You wait, don't leave. I'm going to call security right now."
"Is this how you act as a Yisheng?" Chen Yu glanced at him and said, "You have no ability to cure people yourself, yet you won't allow others to be slightly better than you?"
"You..." The Yisheng's expression was very ugly.
"That's enough, Yisheng Li. Thank you for your care these past few days, but I know my own body. I am perfectly fine now. Let's go, we're discharging, Wanrong." Guo Li hummed with displeasure, then stood up and left.
"What exactly is going on here? Was the examination wrong?" Until the few of them left, that Yisheng was still standing there blankly, looking at the examination report in his hand, unable to react for a moment.
Chen Yu and Yan Roujin followed Guo Li back to her home.
Her home was next to a small village on the edge of the town, a two-story building. It couldn't be called impoverished, and the house in town was also bought a long time ago; for country folk, having such conditions was actually not bad.
Through chatting, they learned that after Guo Wanrong graduated with her bachelor's degree, she was studying for her postgraduate entrance exams and didn't come back very often. These past few days, Guo Li wasn't feeling well, and she happened to be at home, so she was helping out at the shop for a few days.
It seemed the mother and daughter were living a decent life, but one could tell from the wrinkles on Guo Li's face that she had suffered quite a bit over the years.
"Auntie, we came today because there are actually some things we would like to ask you." After chatting for a while, Chen Yu got to the point.
He pulled out a photo of Guo Li from decades ago on his phone: "Auntie, look, is this you?"
When Guo Li saw this photo, her expression changed drastically. Her hands trembled slightly, and her face turned somewhat pale.
Yan Roujin looked at her nervously. Fortunately, they hadn't stated their intentions directly while at the hospital, otherwise, Guo Li would definitely have had an episode.
"It's not me, you've found the wrong person." Guo Li took a deep breath, trying to calm her mood.
"Auntie, since we found you, it means we have enough understanding of your affairs. This photo should be thirty years old, and there are two people in the photo."
"The other person's surname is Liu, named Liu Chengye, who is your lover... Miss Guo's father. We came today because we were entrusted by him to find you."
"Don't say any more. I don't know him. Leave, you must leave immediately." Guo Li became agitated. She stood up and pushed Chen Yu and Yan Roujin toward the door.
"Mom, don't be like this, Mom. Can you tell me what's going on? Please don't be like this, okay? Who is my father? You've hidden it for over twenty years, you should tell me now." Guo Wanrong cried.
"You don't have a father. Your father died before you were born. Don't ask anymore," Guo Li shrieked.
"Auntie, please don't be like this. What happened back then was a misunderstanding. Uncle Liu has been thinking of you all these years; he hasn't remarried to this day," Yan Roujin said hurriedly.
"Heh, impossible. Who is he? He is Liu Chengye, a financial tycoon in Fengling with a net worth of tens of billions. He hasn't remarried? Who are you lying to? How many women are lining up beside him waiting for him to marry them? Would he remember me?"
Guo Li laughed, but as she laughed, she collapsed onto the floor, tears streaming down uncontrollably.
"Back then, he was out struggling to make a living. I was left with two daughters who had just turned one month old. Because I had no money to pay the rent, I was driven out by the landlord and humiliated by bad people."
"My daughter got sick and I had no money to see a doctor. I knelt in the hospital for a day and a night. In the end, the eldest one in my arms stopped breathing, and no one came to help me."
"Where was he at that time? Where was he?" Guo Li roared crazily.
"Mom..." Guo Wanrong hugged her mother tightly, tears gushing out.
"Back then, after he got the news, he rushed back, but when he returned, there was no news of you. And you have been hiding from him all these years, even paying people to tell him that you and the child were both gone."
"All these years, he actually never forgot you," Yan Roujin said, helping Guo Li up. "He has never been married. People in high society even speculated that he was gay."
"If it weren't for his angina and Chen Yu pointing out his heart-sickness, we wouldn't even know about this matter to this day. Auntie, it was wrong of him not to take care of his family while he was striving for success, but a man waited twenty-five years for you—doesn't that deserve your forgiveness?"
"No forgiveness, never forgiveness. You haven't experienced that kind of despair. You don't know how painful it is to watch your child die in your own arms. Leave, all of you, get out!" Guo Li said angrily.
"Brother Chen, why don't you go first? I'll try to persuade her. Her illness just recovered, and I'm worried her emotions are too intense," Guo Wanrong said.
"That's fine, let's head out first." Chen Yu nodded.
"Auntie, don't be agitated, calm down." Yan Roujin sighed and left with Chen Yu.
"Mom... do I have a sister?" Guo Wanrong said blankly.
"Your twin sister. That year, I was holding both of you, with no one to turn to, wandering the streets, picking up leftovers, begging. Where was he then?"
"Your sister caught a serious illness, and I had no money for treatment. I held her in the hospital for a day and a night, watching her die with my own eyes." Guo Li's face was full of hatred. "Where was he then? Where was he?"
"Mom, I'm sorry, you've suffered all these years." The mother and daughter hugged tightly, sobbing uncontrollably.
"What now?" After leaving, Yan Roujin was at a loss.
"The person has been found. What the final outcome will be is no longer our business." Chen Yu looked at the sky; it was almost dark. "How about this, I'll notify President Liu first and have him come over."
"That's fine. We'll keep watch here to prevent her from running away from home again to hide from Uncle Liu," Yan Roujin nodded slightly.
