When she saw the woman with sunken eyes and loose skin and wrinkles on her face, she couldn't control herself and her eyes turned red.
It seemed like there was something wrong with Huang Shujuan's eyesight as well. She tried hard to identify the person before her for a long time before finally being able to see clearly that the woman in bright clothes standing before her was the Xu Huan Yan whom she had been scolding and scolding all day.
There was an awkward expression on her face. It was as if she had not expected that Huaiyan would suddenly come here.
"Joy …" Cough cough, you, why did you come here at this time? "
Huang Shujuan pulled her coat tighter, trying her best to support her body as she forced out a smile.
The sudden visit had actually made her wake up. This was her retribution, a retribution for ignoring Xu Xiangjing and Huaiyan for the past eight years. She had accepted her fate, and now that Xu Meiyang had unwittingly turned against her and demanded money day and night, she understood even more clearly that it was time to pay for the sins she had committed that day.
"Daddy said you're very sick and came to see you."
She looked at her usually overbearing stepmother who had changed to a submissive and submissive appearance, and in the end, she still felt unwell for her.
Putting the two bags in one hand, she raised her hand to support her. "Let's talk inside."
The corners of her lips moved for a long time, but she did not say a word. She did not come to add insult to injury, but unexpectedly, she was able to ignore her previous hatred and came to visit her …
She coughed for a long time as she walked into the living room and helped her sit down. When she tried to pour her a glass of water from the thermos, she found that all the bottles were empty. She frowned and asked, "Why is there no water? Where's Mi Yang?"
At the mention of Mi Yang's name, Huang Shujuan's expression immediately darkened. She panted for a long time before leaning wearily against the sofa. "Don't mention her. I don't know where she went to the wild. I'm not worried at all …"
The girl was stunned. This was Mi Yang's mother. She was so sick, how could she go out and play around with him all day?
While she was thinking, she quickly turned on the stove to boil some water.
"I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow. You can't drag it out any longer!"
No matter what, it was still a life. For someone who had lived under a roof for eight years, she could only watch helplessly as she perished. Yet, she was still unable to do so.
"No …" Huang Shujuan shook her hand with great effort. "Joy, I know my own self. I don't want to go to the hospital. It would be a waste of money if I were to go there …"
"At this time, you have to return the money!"
Huaiyan panicked, she stepped forward to help her up: "You don't have to worry about the money, I will solve it for you. In short, you have to listen to me and go to the hospital!"
"I finally feel a little better in my heart that you can come and see me …"
Huang Shujuan held her hand and mumbled as if the oil lamp had dried up. What a thick palm she used to be. One slap from her hand was enough to make her face dizzy, yet her hand had actually turned as skinny as firewood.
Joy bit her lower lip. She knew that her illness had been cured. She suddenly regretted that she hadn't come to check a few days ago.
"You know, I only have Mi Yang as my relative in this life, and I'm not being unreasonable … I'm going to die, but I can't let her go. Now that you have married a good family, I can see it on TV. I'm really happy for you from the bottom of my heart … However … "Cough, cough, cough …"
Before Huang Shuuan could finish her sentence, she coughed to the point where she swayed backwards and forwards. Her face was full of joy as she hurriedly went to get a towel, but she only saw that her face had turned even more sallow as her hand was pressed tightly against her liver.
"Do you have any painkillers?" Huaiyan hurriedly poured a cup of water and asked repeatedly.
Huang Shujuan struggled to wave her hand. "I can get by …"
"How do we get through? I'll send you to the hospital right now! "
The joy in her heart softened. Seeing her in such a miserable state, she eventually put her past behind her.
"Joy …"
Huang Shujuan suddenly struggled to stand up and grab her arm before softly kneeling down …
Huaiyan was shocked and hurriedly turned around to help her up. Unexpectedly, she just forcibly knelt down, and her eyes filled with tears, "Huaiyan, I'm about to die. I just want you to help me, no, help Mi Yang …" She's young and doesn't know how to behave. Although she wasn't good to you before, she hasn't done anything to harm you. I just want you to keep Mi Yang by your side and discipline her and help her find a good family, okay? "
No matter how ruthless and selfish she used to be, she was still a mother after all. She didn't know how to reject a dying person's plea, so she could only nod lightly and support her with her arm. "You get up. I promise you, I will take good care of Mi Yang …"
"Joy …" "I've done so many wrong things, and yet you disregard my past hatred. I really don't know what to say. I just hope that you can live a peaceful life in the future. Even if I die, I can rest at ease …"
As a child, she felt that her life was unbearable, and it was not a day when she no longer hated this woman. But now that she thought about it, if she had not been through so much suffering, how could she have become so tenacious?
After helping her rest in bed, he bought some painkillers for her to take before leaving with a smile on his face. He didn't come back until she left.
It was already eleven o'clock by the time she took a taxi back, the villa was extremely quiet. She tiptoed into the living room, and just as she was about to go upstairs, the lights in the living room suddenly lit up. She covered her eyes and took a moment to get used to the gloomy face of the man sitting on the sofa.
She went over and poured herself a glass of water. She took the medicine out of her bag, unwrapped the package, and took both of them at the same time.
"What did you eat?" Shen Canghao pursed his lips and asked coldly.
"The pill you told me to buy." She raised her head and swallowed the medicine before putting down her cup. She turned around and prepared to head upstairs. "It's already very late, you should also rest early. Good night …"
