Chapter 386: 178 Beginning (part 2)

Zhao Xiaohui sat on the ground in a daze, and the nurse came in. Seeing her bloodied head, the nurse was shocked and quickly went to help her up. The nurse, who had overheard the argument, was puzzled and asked, “Isn’t she Yangyang’s biological sister? Donating bone marrow won’t have any negative effects on her body. Why wouldn’t she agree to it? I thought it was voluntary.”

Although the mother-daughter relationship didn’t seem great, saving a life without harming oneself seemed like a worthwhile endeavor.

The nurse sighed, “I’ll help you bandage the wound on your head first.”

Zhao Xiaohui suddenly grabbed the nurse’s hand, anxiously asking, “Can Yangyang wait any longer?”

Understanding her feelings, the nurse softly advised, “There are many patients waiting in the Hematology Department. Finding a suitable match is difficult. Maybe you can try persuading your daughter again?”

Zhao Xiaohui rushed out like a madwoman, but Zhu Xiangxiang was nowhere to be found.

Lost and devastated, Zhao Xiaohui wandered the streets. Her husband was facing a lawsuit, her son was waiting for death, and her daughter had run away.

What was there left to hope for in her life?

She received a call from the hospital, and she heard Yangyang crying and calling for his mother, “Mom, I want to eat the sweet and sour ribs you make.”

Zhao Xiaohui wiped away her tears, “Okay, Mom is cooking them for you right now. Be good and listen to the nurse.”

“Mom, don’t cry. It’s okay if my illness can’t be cured. I just won’t be able to see my sister.” The little boy’s distraught voice came through the phone.

But soon, he spoke cheerfully, “Having been your son, I already consider myself fortunate.”

Zhao Xiaohui covered her mouth and sobbed in the empty night street.

Suddenly, a heavy rain began to pour. Pedestrians on the road frantically sought shelter from the rain, but Zhao Xiaohui continued walking aimlessly in the downpour.

Lin Qing looked up to see Zhu Xiangxiang soaking wet from the rain, surprised, she asked, “Weren’t you staying at the Dengs’ house tonight?”

Zhu Xiangxiang snuggled into Lin Qing’s embrace, and coquettishly said, “Mom, you are always the best to me.”

Lin Qing scolded, “You’re all wet. Go back to your room and take a hot shower. You haven’t eaten yet, right? Madam Zhou, make some midnight snacks for Xiangxiang.”

Lin Qing led Zhu Xiangxiang upstairs, frowning, “What happened? Did Zhao Xiaohui bully you?”

Zhu Xiangxiang hesitated to speak and instinctively chose to avoid the question. “No… no, I just missed you, Mom.”

“Then you could have called the driver to pick you up, why did you run back in the rain? What if you catch a cold?”

Gazing into Lin Qing’s concerned eyes, Zhu Xiangxiang felt a warmth in her heart as her fears began to dissipate.

After Zhu Xiangxiang took a hot shower, Lin Qing accompanied her for a midnight snack. At this time, Madam Zhou came over and said, “Madam, just now the security called saying someone named Zhao Xiaohui is looking for Miss Xiangxiang.”

Zhu Xiangxiang immediately said, “I won’t see her. Tell her to leave.”

Lin Qing glanced at her and held Zhu Xiangxiang’s hand, asking, “Xiangxiang, what exactly happened? Tell Mom, if you have been wronged, I will stand up for you. Even your biological mother can’t bully you.”

Zhu Xiangxiang sighed, “Forget it, it’s all over. Even if she wronged me, I’ve done all I could. I won’t see her again.”

Madam Zhou frowned, “According to the security, Zhao Xiaohui said it’s a matter of life and death. She claims that if she can’t see Miss Xiangxiang, she’ll kill herself at the gate of the community. It seems to be very serious.”

Lin Qing burst into anger, “What on Earth does this woman want to do?”

Zhu Xiangxiang comforted Lin Qing and stood up, saying, “I’ll go take a look.”

“I’ll accompany you.”

“It’s not necessary, Mom. You can rest at home. I’ll handle it.”

Lin Qing nodded, “If you can get rid of her with money, do it. Don’t get involved with her anymore.”

Lin Qing thought the woman was after money; otherwise, why would Xiangxiang refuse to recognize her own mother? What she said on the phone earlier made Lin Qing feel uneasy.

And as for her repulsive husband, Lin Qing felt disgusted just thinking about him. 𝘧𝘳ℯ𝓮𝘸𝓮𝑏𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Zhu Xiangxiang went out with an umbrella. The driver drove her to the entrance of the community, and just as she left, Madam Zhou asked Xiao Ying to secretly follow her.

Upon returning, Zhu Xiangxiang hummed a song as she went upstairs. Xiao Ying found Madam Zhou and whispered a few words in her ear.

Madam Zhou couldn’t believe it, “Are you telling the truth?”
