La Chenxi, who had been avoiding the situation for two months and had just returned from abroad, was a bit surprised to hear this, "Is that woman still alive? She didn’t die?"
"How could she die? She’s hanging on every day with those expensive injections, plus a ventilator. I reckon she won’t die any time soon." Bai Tingfang said this in a fit of anger.
Upon hearing this, La Chenxi’s face changed slightly...
In fact, ever since she was exposed by Ji Chengzhi at Ji Mansion more than two months ago and received his warning, she left this city and went abroad for a full two months.
During those two months, Ji Chengzhi’s warning had indeed taken effect, and another reason was that she wanted to wait for things here to cool down. Afterward, she planned to come back and slowly get close to that man again.
But now, this woman named Bai Tingfang, actually told her that the woman hadn’t died and was still in the hospital, kept alive by a ventilator.
Was her life really that resilient? Despite being brain-dead, could she maintain this for so long?
Suddenly, her mood darkened again, "So is she alive or dead right now? They can’t possibly let the Third Young Master keep her company forever."
"Of course she’s dead, but Mucen won’t let go. What can we do? You don’t know, he’s become a bit mentally unstable now because of that woman."
The woman walking inside, upon hearing this, was so scared that she stopped in her tracks, "Mentally unstable? What do you mean?"
Bai Tingfang frowned, "He’s constantly fantasizing that the woman will come back to life. He doesn’t let anyone touch her, keeping her alive on those expensive injections you once found, plus a ventilator. How could this brain-dead woman possibly come back to life?"
As she spoke, she grew angry again, her chest heaving with rage.
Seeing this, La Chenxi quickly grabbed her. They didn’t look at clothes in the store anymore and instead, went to a nearby café to sit down, "Alright, alright, Auntie, don’t be angry. We have to take this slowly. It’s not good if you upset yourself."
In less than a few words, "Mrs. Ou" had become "Auntie."
Bai Tingfang, still in her fury, didn’t notice the shift and, hearing her comforting words, began to vent nonstop as if she had finally found an outlet, "You tell me, if that woman could get better, I wouldn’t mind keeping her , but she’s already brain-dead, that’s like a living dead person, why won’t he let go?"
It wasn’t about not letting go, but rather, not willing to part with her, right?
The moment these words flashed through La Chenxi’s mind, her fingers holding the coffee cup turned pale...
"Auntie, actually Mucen just doesn’t want to admit it, his feelings for that woman... are too deep." She squeezed out these last few words one by one.
Bai Tingfang nodded impatiently, "I understand, but we can’t let him keep drowning in this. If he continues , what about the future? He has a child, there’s us, and the entire Ou Corporation to take responsibility for."
"Then... why don’t you try to persuade him?"
"No, he won’t listen to anyone right now."
"What if we make him see that the woman is already dead?" She grabbed the coffee cup with her hand, struggled for a long while, and finally, she said these words.
