Chapter 369: I’m Going to the Mental Hospital
Jiang Xi entered the VIP ward and found that it was even more luxurious than the ward she had slept in before. This was a Super VIP ward! An old lady was lying on the bed. She had white hair and was wearing glasses. She was taking a nap.
The chubby boy he met at the scene of the accident was squatting by the bed with the old lady. This old lady must be his grandmother, right?
Everyone was looking at Jiang Xi, who had come in uninvited. Without waiting for them to ask, Jiang Xi walked to the bed and sat directly next to the old lady’s bed. The old lady did not seem to see her and did not react.
“May I know who this young lady is? You barged into my mother’s ward without permission.” The chubby boy’s father asked.
Jiang Xi looked at the old lady on the bed and said, “I have an affinity with the old lady a few years ago. I heard that the old lady’s health isn’t good today, so I came over to take a look. Isn’t that right, grandma?” Jiang Xi looked at the person on the bed with a smile.
“That’s impossible. My mother lives abroad all year round. How do you know her? Moreover, she has been lying in bed for twenty years, and you look like you’re only in your early twenties. Did you know my mother when you were still in your mother’s womb?” The man looked at Jiang Xi with vigilance.
Jiang Xi was speechless. On her way here, she had heard people mention the old lady in this ward. It was said that the old lady was very resourceful when she was young. She had built a business empire at the age of 50, which was well-known abroad. Who knew that she would suddenly be paralyzed in bed 20 years ago, and her three sons and two daughters would take over her business empire? There was a saying that there was no filial son in front of a sick bed. At first, everyone hoped that the old lady would get better, but after waiting for a long time, their thoughts changed when they had all the power and property in their hands. So, they discussed that instead of being paralyzed, it was better to be euthanized early to avoid torture.
Unexpectedly, just as they were discussing how to divide the inheritance after the old lady’s death, the old lady woke up! She sat up straight from the bed and looked at the crowd with a
deep gaze. She only said one sentence, “I think you’re tired of living. How dare you pull out my oxygen tube!” What was even scarier was that all of them had spent 20 years to stabilize their power and the shares that they had obtained with great difficulty. In the end, the old lady took back all of them in just half a month. It seemed that her means were fiercer and more brutal than before!
So, of course, these people would not believe Jiang Xi when she said that she knew the old lady.
Jiang Xi was also a little embarrassed. Who knew that the old lady would sleep for so long… The old lady looked at Jiang Xi with a helpless expression on her serious face. “Alright, don’t call me ‘grandma’. I’m afraid that my life will be shortened. I might as well call you ‘grandma’.”
Jiang Xi chuckled. Under the surprised gazes of everyone in the room, she took off her shoes and socks and lay down on the bed naturally. She brought the old lady into a corner and occupied a comfortable position for herself. She leaned against the head of the bed comfortably. She was exhausted. She had finally found Sister Yi.
After everyone had left the ward, Jiang Xi asked Sister Yi, “Didn’t you want to choose the one that suits your body the most? Why did he choose an old lady who was about to die? She only woke up the moment her oxygen tube was almost pulled out.” She looked at Sister Yi’s wrinkled face and pouted in disdain. At this age, with such wrinkles, how could they be sisters in the future?
“This is not the body that I had my eyes on. It’s the child of this family’s eldest daughter-in-law.
She’s only 15 or 16 years old, but when I thought about it, it’s not as suitable to choose a junior. So, after a long time, I found the one with the highest seniority! The person I picked was older, but he died last month, so I didn’t make it in time.” Sister Yi sighed. She could not bring a shovel to dig up graves, so she could only do this.
After making arrangements for her family, Sister Yi left with Jiang Xi and went to the mental hospital. Most of the people in the mental hospital had a tragic past. Some people were born with mental disorders, and some were stimulated by great sorrow, but these people were all pitiful. They lived in their own world and were unwilling to come out. If others could not enter, they could not leave either. However, Jiang Xi was an exception. In the past, she was a tyrant in the mental hospital and became the boss. In addition, she also had a title called ‘friend of the mentally ill’. Patients often sneaked out of the ward to have a heart-to-heart talk with Jiang Xi.
So, with her physical strength and mental strength, how could the people in the mental hospital not be convinced by Jiang Xi?.
