Chapter 935: Chapter 558: Mourning the Departed
Half an hour after receiving the Bai family’s call, the Wen family arrived at the hospital. As they got out of the car, Old Mrs. Wen’s legs weakened, and Luo Ye and Ye Xuan hurriedly supported her from both sides.
Mr. Wen sighed lightly, "Yanrui, we’re at the hospital now. Whatever the situation is, we’ll find out soon. Calm down."
"I know." Old Mrs. Wen replied, but she didn’t improve at all. The siblings had just resolved years of conflict, and then this happened. She couldn’t accept it. If it was due to her that things turned out this way, she would rather never step foot into the Bai household.
Ping and Ah Hua also wore painful expressions. They had just left the Bai family, how did the young master end up in the hospital? With Wen Yan and Wen Tong’s help, they barely managed to walk.
Wen Tong met everyone at the entrance and listened to Wen Yan’s brief explanation on the way, feeling astonished. He understood the grudges between their own family and Grandma’s, but he didn’t expect the truth to be like this.
Thinking deeply, he broke into a cold sweat. If he had married Liang Huarui at that time, would their family be in chaos too?
Outside the intensive care unit, the Bai family crowded the corridor. Seeing Old Mrs. Wen’s group approaching, Elderly Mrs. Bai pointed at her like a madwoman, "It’s you! You caused this! Why did you come back after all these years, why?"
Old Mrs. Wen, already emotional, couldn’t hold back anymore. Tears flowed down like broken beads, "If I had known it would end like this, I would rather never have any dealings with my maiden family. But in this world, is there any remedy for regret?"
"What’s the use of saying this now?" Elderly Mrs. Bai shouted angrily, and most in the crowd cast angry eyes at Old Mrs. Wen.
A middle-aged man stepped forward and hugged Elderly Mrs. Bai, "Mom, didn’t Dad say not to make things difficult for Aunt?" He then turned to Old Mrs. Wen, "Aunt, my dad wants to see you, please go in quickly." As Luo Ye and others wanted to enter too, he stretched out his hand to stop them, "The doctor said only one person can go in at a time."
Bai Yan, standing at the door of the ward, had a complex expression. Among the Bai family juniors, she was the only one aware of Luo Ye’s connection to the Bai family. Since childhood, she was the Bai family’s pride and hope.
Her grandma cherished her like a treasure, often comparing her to the Wen family juniors when alone with her, always feeling smug since she brought honor to the Bai family, finally overshadowing the Wen family.
Ever since she learned of Luo Ye’s identity, she worried the day would come when the Wen and Bai families would resume contact. If grandma knew of Luo Ye’s existence, it would be a fatal blow.
She didn’t expect the day to come so quickly, and the outcome to be so heavy!
She had no right to comment on the elders’ grievances, but regardless of grandma’s flaws, she was still Grandma, who loved and doted on her. Therefore, she naturally had to stand by Grandma’s side now, without hesitation.
When Old Mrs. Wen entered the ward, Bai Yan stepped forward and hugged Elderly Mrs. Bai’s arm, "Grandma, sit and rest. You’re the backbone of the family, you mustn’t wear yourself out."
Elderly Mrs. Bai leaned on her granddaughter’s shoulder, "Yan’er, your Grandpa woke up and didn’t want to see the Bai family, but specifically asked to see his sister. That is too heartbreaking."
"Grandma..." Bai Yan didn’t know what to say for a moment, the middle-aged man promptly said, "Mom, Dad hasn’t seen Aunt for many years, please try to be understanding, okay?"
Elderly Mrs. Bai angrily kicked him, "Is this something to be understanding about? At this point, he still doesn’t distinguish inside and outside. I’m starting to suspect his brain is damaged."
"Mom, how can you say that?" The middle-aged man’s face turned dark, "If it weren’t for you, would Dad be like this? If it weren’t for you, would Aunt not visit the Bai family for so many years? If it weren’t for you, would the Bai family be in this state today?"
"You... you... you are ungrateful, get lost!" Elderly Mrs. Bai’s lips trembled, her fleshy face dark and frightening.
Originally intending to ask what had specifically happened, Old Master Wen decided to abandon the idea, under current circumstances, it would be pointless, who would dare speak?
Inside the ward, Old Mrs. Wen looked at the weak Bai Yanji, crying uncontrollably. It hadn’t even been half a day, yet she felt as if everything had changed.
Seeing this, the doctor promptly said, "The patient’s condition is only temporarily under control, he cannot be overly stimulated."
"Yanrui, don’t cry, everyone’s lifespan is ordained by heaven, and cannot be forced." Bai Yanji managed a weak smile, "I rushed to see you, fearing my energy wouldn’t hold." He said, looking at the doctor, "Dr. Yang, the person I asked you to find, are they here yet?"
