Zhang Wei was also standing beside Mo Lingtan for whom Lee Xuiye had bad-mouthed a few minutes before. Now she didn't know what to say because of guilt.
Mo Lingtan and Zhang Wei strode inside the ward. All of a sudden, the atmosphere had become very awful for Lee Xuiye. She felt that the three people in front of her were ganging up against her.
Lee Xuiye opened her mouth with a lot of difficulty to explain "I…."
"Thud!"
However, before she could say anything, Mo Lingtan threw a file in front of her and she trembled for a moment. She looked up at him with her eyes wide open.
"If you think I would leave you because of my father, my family then you are wrong. Also if you think your money would stop me from leaving you then again you are wrong. Now looking at you made me feel as if I am looking at a stranger. You don't seem to be my Xuiye to whom I love." Mo Lingtan spoke in a peculiar manner as if he was looking at the stranger.
Lee Xuiye trembled hearing that she seemed to be strange to him and a sudden thought came in her mind that he would leave her again, so she moved to stop him, but he pushed her back nonchalantly "You can't buy my love, Xuiye!" Mo Lingtan closed his eyes to suppress the pain and anger which he was feeling towards her. If Lee Chang-You and Zhang Wei wouldn't have present here, he didn't know what he would have done to her.
After a while, he opened his eyes and sternly said "From now onwards, you will be grounded here until I deal with the Wang Family. Throw as much of a tantrum as you can, but this time no one would come to meet you!"
Then Mo Lingtan looked at Lee Chang-You and asked "Mom, would you mind if I do that?"
"Not at all, do whatever you seem fit. I trust you, Lingtan!" Lee Chang-You replied with a determined expression.
Hearing Lee Chang-You affirmation, Mo Lingtan left without another word.
"Bam--"
"Mom…"
Lee Xuiye wanted to ask Lee Chang-You to stop Mo Lingtan, but Lee Chang-You interrupted her "I always feel that your uncle Wei should marry someone better than me that's why I didn't accept his proposal, not because I don't trust him. Xuiye, I trust him more than I trust you!"
Lee Xuiye didn't know what to say after hearing what Lee Chang-You had said.
"One more thing Xuiye, I know I have suffered all these years and you have also suffered because of me. However, I never thought to buy a relationship using money and I expect the same from you but...Sigh! Now I feel you are like Wang Hui. No wonder you think like him, after all, his blood runs within you...You have proved that you are really his biological daughter."
"Mom…" Lee Xuiye was shocked to hear those hurtful words from her mother. She never considered Wang Hui, her father, but now Lee Chang-You had said that Lee Xuiye was just like Wang Hui, she felt disgusted with herself.
"Bam---"
After that, Lee Chang-You also left without hearing any further words from her daughter.
Usually, Zhang Wei would give some kind of consoling words to Lee Xuiye whenever Lee Xuiye and Lee Chang-You had quarreled but now he was leaving without saying anything.
"Uncle Wei, I didn't mean it." Lee Xuiye sniffly said seeing that Zhang Wei was also leaving. Her tears were threatening to fall down from her eyes but she didn't want to be weak so she held them back.
Lee Xuiye just knew that all she wanted was to protect them while being independent. Was she doing something wrong?
"If you didn't mean it, you would not have said those words, Xuiye." Zhang Wei calmly replied.
With that, he also left. After that, a faint sobbing sound could be heard from inside the ward but no one went inside except the nurse who stood at one side quietly.

Outside in the parking lot.
"Chang, wait for me!" Zhang Wei made a quick stride to catch up with her.
He held Lee Chang-You's arm to stop her and as he expected her eyes were moistened, instantly his heart ached for her.
"Chang…"
"I never thought she would become like this. If I had known that allowing her to take revenge from the Wang Family would make Xuiye like them, I wouldn't have allowed her." Lee Chang-You sniffled.
"Chang, we can't blame her as well. She has suffered a lot at her young age so she thought that perhaps, life would become easy if she uses money. Let her stay alone for some time, she will reflect on her mistake."
"What if Mo Lingtan leaves her by the time she realizes her mistake. Wouldn't it be too late then?"
"What are you saying, Chang? If Lingtan wanted to leave her, he would have thrown divorce papers in front of Xuiye. He is not that unreasonable."
"But…"
"Alright. I will go and meet him in a few days and let's hear out what he thought. C'mon, stop crying now." Zhang Wei gently wiped her tears away but then a thought came in his mind, he called her out softly, "Chang…"
"Hmm?"
"For me, there is no one better than you."
