199: Chapter 199 Who was that just now?
This was the first ti she had pleaded with him using that expression, and Rong Shaoze couldn’t refuse, so he had to go ahead first.
But he didn’t go far, standing not far away watching them, ready to run over at any mont if sothing happened.
Lin Xinlan looked at Zhou Yun’s mother and asked with a smile, “Auntie, what are you doing here?
Are you feeling unwell?”
Zhou Yun’s mother had regained her color, and she laughed, “Nothing serious, just a gynecological issue, an old problem.
Are you pregnant?”
“Mhm.” She nodded slightly, her face not showing much of the joy a mother should have.
Zhou Yun’s mother was a sharp and intelligent person; she could tell at a glance that Xinlan had sothing on her mind.
“Was that your husband just now?” She couldn’t help but ask.
Lin Xinlan knew that she had noticed as well, “Mhm, that’s Rong Shaoze.”
A flash of resentnt crossed Zhou Yun’s mother’s eyes, which quickly disappeared, “Miss Lin, you are a good person, and I’m very thankful for your forgiveness towards my two sons.
But, I have to say sothing unpleasant; I harbor resentnt towards your husband.
No matter what, he can’t be absolved from my daughter’s death.”
Lin Xinlan pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
She could understand Zhou Yun’s mother’s feelings, but for so reason, hearing her negative remarks about Rong Shaoze, her heart couldn’t help but feel sowhat bitter.
“Miss Lin, you should go see the doctor.
I won’t disturb you further,” Zhou Yun’s mother said with a smile, and then she left.
Lin Xinlan turned her head, saw her graying hair, and her stooped figure, and suddenly felt that she was very pitiable.
She was a pitiable, yet great mother…
“Eh, where did that patient go?” The nurse ca out with the CT scans, looking around in all directions.
Lin Xinlan quickly asked, “Are you looking for an elderly person?”
“Yes, that’s her.
Why did she leave?
She was told to wait a while.”
Lin Xinlan’s eyes fell on the CT scan, “May I ask, what illness does she have?”
The nurse shook her head with a sigh, “Uterine cancer, already in the advanced stages.
I guess she has decided not to seek treatnt.
It’s not just expensive, even with treatnt, there’s not much hope.”
Lin Xinlan turned her head, and could no longer see Zhou Yun’s mother’s figure.
She actually had uterine cancer…
Suddenly, she felt her eyes becoming dry.
Rong Shaoze ca over and put his arm around her shoulder, his tone gentle, “Let’s go, it’s ti for your checkup.”
————
After leaving the hospital and sitting in the car, Lin Xinlan asked Rong Shaoze, “Why don’t you ask who that person was just now?”
The man started the car, asking casually, “Who was she?”
“She was Zhou Yun’s mother.”
“Oh.” There was not a trace of surprise on Rong Shaoze’s face.
When he had seen the hate in her eyes, he had guessed her identity.
He knew that Zhou Yun had an elderly mother, and that they looked sowhat alike, so it was an easy guess.
Seeing that he was not at all surprised, Lin Xinlan continued, “I heard the nurse say earlier that she has late-stage uterine cancer.
Did Zhou Yun willingly beco your mistress…
to raise money for her mother’s treatnt?”
Rong Shaoze turned the steering wheel, his tone indifferent, “I don’t know, and it has nothing to do with .”
Yes, there were so many pitiable people in the world; she shouldn’t expect Rong Shaoze to have even a shred of compassion.
But thinking of Zhou Yun’s mother reminded her of her own mother, and of herself.
Being mothers themselves, she deeply understood how heartbreaking it can be.
