Yu Meizi’s looked down guiltily, but she stopped herself from responding to Xiao Hong.
After Xiao Hong finished, she looked over at Ling Tianya who had an equally glum face. Ling Tianya made eye contact with her and nodded her head slightly.
With Ling Tianya’s support, Xiao Hong continued, “I am carrying Tao’s child. Although we’re not officially married yet, I already think of myself as part of the Ling family. The man in the operating theatre is my husband and my child’s father! I need him to survive this! If any of you dare to make a scene at the hospital again, don’t blame me for what I will do to you!”
Xiao Hong’s speech was stern and powerful. Madame Ling and Yu Meizi both looked down guiltily, each of them silent now.
Ling Tianxin had been sitting in the corner from where she finally saw the mother that she missed so much. She leaped up and ran towards Yu Meizi as quickly as she could.
“Mama! Mama!” Ling Tianxin jumped into Yu Meizi’s arms.”Mama, Tianxin misses you so much! I really miss you so much! Why have you only come now?”
Yu Meizi took a couple of steps backward as Ling Tianxin grabbed onto her tightly. She looked Xiao Hong up and down and raised her chin proudly.
“Hmph, so what if you treat Ling Tianxin well? I am the only mother she recognises and loves!”
Xiao Hong ignored Yu Meizi’s provocation and pretended not to hear her. She had said all she had to say and had given her warning. She could only pray for Ling Tao’s surgery to go well. She needed him to be well and alive.
When Ling Tianxin leaped into Yu Meizi’s arms, Madame Ling was furious again. She pointed at Ling Tianxin and scolded her loudly, “Ling Tianxin, you heartless jinx! Your dad was caught in an accident because of you. He was hit by a car trying to save you! Here you are running to this b*tch! You are heartless, cold and heartless!”
“Enough!” Ling Tianya finally said. She glared at Madame Ling in fury, “This is the hospital! Maintain your silence here. Grandma, I don’t think you should stay here any longer.”
“What?” Madame Ling was annoyed at her proposal, “Ling Tianya, what do you mean? It’s my son in there! Why can’t I stay here and wait for the news? Of course, you are a heartless wretch as well! You are taking this b*tch’s side as well, aren’t you?”
Ling Tianya’s expression was cold, and her impatience was showing. “Xiao Yi, take Madame Ling away. Lock her away, anywhere will do! Don’t let me see her again before the surgery is over!”
“Ling Tianya, you unfilial child! Aren’t you worried that you might be punished by the heavens?” Madame Ling was pointing at Ling Tianya and scolding her but she couldn’t stop Xiao Yi from stepping forward. Xiao Yi walked towards her and lifted her up. There was nothing she could do except struggle and protest. Xiao Yi quickly dragged her away until she disappeared down the corridor.
Ruan Zeyan and a bunch of people walked towards them at this moment. It was a group of doctors in their white coats. They were all experts in their fields. Ruan Zeyan was walking in front of them with a serious expression, and he was talking to one of the doctors.
The doctors looked serious as well. They were the leading figures in their own fields. Judging from their expressions, Ling Tao must not be in a good state.
Even so, Ruan Zeyan gave them strict orders. They must save Ling Tao no matter what.
Ruan Zeyan walked over to Ling Tianya and grabbed her cold hands. To comfort her, he said softly, “Don’t worry, father-in-law will be ok.”
The various specialists greeted Ling Tianya when they saw her, “Young Mistress, we will do our best to save your father.”
The operating theater doors opened, and the specialists entered the theater quickly.
When the doors shut again, Ling Tianya leaned her weight against Ruan Zeyan and gripped his hands tightly. No matter how strong she was, there was no way she could remain calm when her loved one was in life-threatening danger.
