The words of kindness and innocence carried no hint of complaint. She felt that grievances should not be borne in silence; she wanted Sun Yao to realize on his own that all her pain stemmed from Ye Bing.
Once again, Sun Yao held Zheng Mengni close. Her chest was undeniably narrow and soft, yet it exuded an inexplicable warmth and strength. Zheng Mengni leaned against Sun Yao, feeling more at ease than she had anticipated.
Her mother had discovered the truth about her identity, yet she still treated her with the same affection as before. In fact, to protect her feelings, she chose to temporarily conceal the secret of her origins.
There were two tricky points to navigate. The first was Zheng Yicheng. He held strong views on class and was very clear about right and wrong. To gain his acceptance as a mistaken daughter who had entered their home, she would need to continuously improve her abilities to earn his recognition. She had to make Zheng Yicheng believe that, compared to strength, her background meant nothing.
The second was Ye Bing. He had explicitly stated that he wanted to drive her out of the Zheng Family. Their time together had been too short for Zheng Mengni to grasp his true attitude. However, the fact that she had been kidnapped was closely tied to Ye Bing, and she was not one to easily forgive; this grudge would definitely stay with her. If Ye Bing never woke up, that would be one thing, but if he did, she would make sure to settle the score.
Once the score was settled, if Ye Bing knew what was good for him and chose to keep his distance, Zheng Mengni believed she could pretend to be amiable towards this sister of hers. But if he failed to recognize the situation, it wouldn’t matter; Zheng Mengni would find a way to teach him a lesson. After all, he was the flesh and blood of Sun Yao, and her reluctance to drive away Ye Bing stemmed from her compassion for him—she didn’t want him caught in a difficult position.
Wei Jingxi’s car had been parked outside the hospital for many days. He came every day but could not enter the inpatient building. How could he not even have the right to visit when Xiao Ni was hospitalized? It was bad enough that he couldn’t go in; even Xiao Ni’s closest friend, Shen Die, was also barred from entry.
Tan Yan felt as if he held all the power in his hands, blocking anyone who wished to visit Zheng Mengni. He pompously told the Zheng Family that the danger had not yet passed, and allowing outsiders to visit could lead to unforeseen complications. It was unclear what the Zheng Family truly thought, as they seemed to agree with Tan Yan's form of protective confinement, ensuring that not even a fly could enter the hospital ward.
Wei Jingxi harbored an intense hatred for Tan Yan, who pretended to be a saint in front of Xiao Ni. He never considered whether Xiao Ni wanted such a twisted form of love and protection. Many times, Wei Jingxi contemplated running to Tan Zheng to report Tan Yan's behavior. However, he refrained from doing so, not out of pride, but from fear that if Tan Zheng learned of Tan Yan's feelings for Xiao Ni, he would prioritize dealing with her over his own son.
Wei Jingxi dared not entertain any hopes of luck; if his momentary impulse put Xiao Ni in danger, he would regret it to the point of madness, feeling that even a thousand cuts would be insufficient punishment for himself. He couldn't enter the ward but refused to leave, standing vigil at the hospital entrance every day at the same time. Even if he could only glean some news about Zheng Mengni from doctors and nurses, it brought him a sense of satisfaction.
Seeing her, even if only from afar, brought him some comfort. Knowing she was safe eased his mind slightly, making his expression less grim.
Wei Nanxuan learned of Wei Jingxi's daily embarrassment outside the hospital and was furious at home. On the tenth day of Wei Jingxi's vigil at the hospital, Guan Su Lin personally intervened to drag him back to the Wei Family.
According to Wei Nanxuan, it was absurd for him to cling on after their breakup; such desperate behavior was unbecoming. "What woman would want someone like that? Not even Zheng Mengni would," he scoffed.
Guan Su Lin merely smiled; he was too busy with company matters to concern himself with the gossip among the younger generation. However, he had his own plans for bringing Wei Jingxi back. After playing this game for so long, it was time to return and inherit their father's legacy.
