“..”Jing Muchen frowned slightly. Of course, he knew that Shangguan Yan was a good young man with a good background, but he could not just say the truth.
“Chen Chen, don’t you know something?”Shangguan Li asked as he looked at Jing Muchen with a pair of shrewd eyes.
“Uncle.” Jing Muchen’s face was as calm as ever.” There are some things that might be better for Ah Yan to tell you personally.”
“..”Shangguan Li frowned and looked at Zhao Xiali. Both of their eyes were filled with confusion.
Finally, the three of them returned to the ward.
In the ward, Su Ruowan was holding a bowl of porridge and trying to feed Shangguan Yan, but he was determined not to open his mouth. His entire face was also without any desires. If it wasn’t for that pair of eyes occasionally blinking, Su Ruowan would really think that he was a statue.
Zhao Xiali quickly walked over and took the porridge from Su Ruowan’s hands. She scooped up a spoonful of porridge and blew on it before bringing it to Shangguan Yan’s mouth. However, Shangguan Yan still didn’t even look at it and didn’t react at all.
Zhao Xiali took back the spoon. Her nose felt sour and tears fell again.
“You’re not eating now because you want to torture your mother, right?”Zhao Xiali’s voice trembled.” You’re my only son. You’re the only child of the Shangguan family! You were very sensible in the past, but why did you ignore our feelings this time and go racing as if you didn’t care about your life? Have you ever thought that if anything happened to you, how would we, your grandfather, continue to live? Why are you so insensible?
Why can’t you understand your parents! Do you want us to send our children away before you are satisfied?”
Su Ruowan stood by the side and listened to Zhao Xiali’s sobbing voice. She thought of the pitiful hearts of parents, regret, discomfort, guilt, and all kinds of feelings surged up. Her eyes instantly turned red.
“Alright, you don’t want to eat, right? Then I’ll accompany you. I won’t eat either! Anyway, I’m already over fifty years old. My son is about to die. What’s the point of me living?”Zhao Xiali became angrier as she spoke. She threw the porridge in her hand onto the tiled floor. The bowl broke into pieces and the porridge spilled all over the floor.
Shangguan Yan finally reacted to the sudden noise. He turned his head and opened his mouth. With difficulty, he said in a hoarse voice,” Mom.””
“Yanyan.” When Zhao Xiali heard Shangguan Yan’s voice, her face lit up and she quickly reached out to hold his right hand.” Mom is here, and so is your dad. What do you want to say?” Tell me.”
“Mom, I’m sorry. I’m just sad.”After Shangguan Yan finished speaking, the guilt in Su Ruowan’s heart deepened. She tightly frowned and gritted her teeth, her face was extremely conflicted.
“What are you sad about, child?” Zhao Xiali looked at Shangguan Yan’s sorrowful expression and felt a headache coming on. Could it be…”Yanyan, are you heartbroken?”
At the thought of this possibility, she quickly said,” Yanyan, do you not like Qiao Rui ‘er? Then who do you like? Tell Mom and Mom will agree. As long as you are well, Mom will agree to anything.”
“It’s useless.” Shangguan Yan shook his head and stared blankly at the dark window.” The child is gone…”
“A child?” Zhao Xiali’s eyes widened.” What child?”
Behind him, Su Ruowan was also shocked by his words. This Shangguan Yan, how…
“My child is gone.” Shangguan Yan continued to speak in disappointment.
Zhao Xiali suddenly felt like a bolt from the blue struck her. She opened her mouth in shock, but she could not speak for a long time.
