Chapter 34
"You're not that type of person, because of what you did to Qin Chu at graduation . His family is so much richer than mine and you still broke up with him . You are obviously not a gold digger . "
"You're funny . Thanks for the compliment, but, I don't think we're right for each other . "
"Come one, I'll treat you well . For real, Huo Mian, I promise that I'll be good to you for as long as I live . I can take care of your mother and brother for the rest of my life . "
"Wei Dong, thank you . "
After replying, Huo Mian exited the WeChat application, unwilling to continue with the charade .
Her heart pounded hard when Wei Dong mentioned what she did to Qin Chu at graduation . . .
Just then, Huo Mian's phone began to ring . . .
"Lingling?"
"Mian, I'm telling you, just ignore that scumbag Wei Dong . His personality is quite horrible, and I heard that he is always changing girlfriends . Just now, he even told me to try and convince you to marry him! He must be dreaming . "
"Ha, he's only joking . I didn't take it seriously . "
"He's serious, I know he's not joking . When we were in school, he always secretly put snacks in your desk and you've never noticed . I do believe that he wants to marry you, since to him, you're a goddess . But men like him are all the same, longing for what they could never get . Once you're with him for a few years, he'll get bored of you and cheat . I've seen plenty of scumbags like him . "
"I know that, Lingling . "
"Right, I'm just reminding you . "
As she hung up Lingling's call, Huo Mian noticed that she had arrived at Fourth People's Hospital .
Huo Mian brought some buns and egg soup with her into the room .
"Mom, you must be hungry . The traffic was bad on the way here . " Huo Mian smiled .
Yang Meirong's face remained unpleasant as she silently took the food from Huo Mian's hands .
"I want to be discharged tomorrow . "
Huo Mian paused for a second before realizing that her mother was healthy enough to go home, "Mhm, I'll go ask the doctor . We'll leave as soon as your blood pressure lowers . "
"When are you getting married? I heard Zhixin say that you bought an apartment already," Yang Meirong asked unhurriedly .
Although Ning Zhiyuan rarely visited Yang Meirong while he dated Huo Mian, she had not given him any trouble . At most, she was unenthusiastic .
"We aren't anymore," answered Huo Mian, slightly biting her lip .
Yang Meirong paused from eating the bun and looked up with a sharp glare, "What happened?"
"Zhiyuan likes someone else now," Huo Mian answered selectively, not wanting to take the blame . She thought that her mother would be triggered upon hearing Qin Chu's name so she did her best to avoid doing so .
However, Yang Meirong sneered and asked, "Is it because he likes someone else? Or is it because you rekindled your love for that boy?"
"Mom, I didn't . " Huo Mian's face paled, as she did not think that her mother would be so direct .
"Huo Mian, I am telling you that you will have a stable life if you marry someone as average as Ning Zhiyuan . It's been seven years, and I thought you've come to know your place . I can't believe that you are still so delusional, so obsessed with that Qin Chu . I'm telling you, you're digging yourself a shallow grave . Keep in mind that his parents basically tried to kill you seven years ago, and you're only alive because your Uncle Jing saved you . If they found out that you're still hooking up with their son, you might as well be dead . "
"Mom, I won't . Don't be angry," Huo Mian said as she reached out to hold her mother's hand .
"Go away! Don't touch me," Yang Meirong said as she threw the food onto the ground, creating loud banging noises .
"What's going on?" A nurse rushed in .
"I don't want to see her, get her out of here," shouted Yang Meirong as she pointed at her daughter .
"You should probably leave, the patient's mood is getting a little unstable," the nurse advised .
Huo Mian felt horrible; she was worried about her mother but did not want to aggravate her further . She had no choice but to leave .
Then, her phone began ringing again . The caller ID showed that it was the head nurse .
"Head nurse, is everything okay?"
"Huo Mian, the director approved your request . Come to the hospital . "
