Ye Ci lay in the hospital overnight, and woke up the next day with the sun shining.

Ning Zhiyuan was half leaning on the edge of her hospital bed, looking up and having a scruffy beard, which was completely different from the appearance when he left yesterday.

Ye Ci looked at him and asked with some confusion, "Uncle Ning, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ning Zhiyuan saw that the person had already woken up, so he breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and replied in a deep voice: "Xiao Ye, I want to talk to you about two things now, both of which are not good, but you must be mentally prepared first."

Ye Ci looked at Ning Zhiyuan's strict appearance in front of him, and his heart suddenly tightened, and said, "Okay, you say."

Ning Zhiyuan nodded, and said a little tiredly: "Your mother was in a car accident on the way back from the airport this morning, and she is still in the process of being rescued."

"What?" After hearing this, Ye Ci immediately stood up and wanted to leave, but he got up a little violently, causing a dizziness in his head, and he fell back to the hospital bed, covering his chest and panting.

Ning Zhiyuan stepped forward and patted her on the back and comforted: "Don't worry, I just came over there, and the operation will not end in an hour or two."

Ye Ci nodded and slowly stabilized his feelings, raised his head and asked, "Then, what about the second thing?" ”

Ning Zhiyuan's movements in his hand stopped for a moment, and he replied with some embarrassment: "The second thing is your father's matter, my friend from the Commission for Discipline Inspection said that they have already begun to investigate your father, and the punishment may come down in two days tomorrow." ”

Ye Ci sat in place, as if numb from pain, he had no other expression, his eyes looked out of the window blankly, and he said in a trance: "This day is really coming, I always thought before, our family, maybe I don't know which day will be gone."

Ning Zhiyuan stood in place, not knowing what he should or could say for a while.

In fact, he hated it, hated the injustice of fate in this world, and hated many things that could not be fulfilled.

But behind that hateful love, life still has to go on. Just like the indescribable fate between people, whether it is regret or sadness, it is always necessary to go on in their own lives.

Those things that you are afraid of, doubt, or even hate, after many years, time will always make you forget.

Ye Ci put on his clothes and slowly got out of bed with Ning Zhiyuan's support.

She knew she didn't have time to be sad now. I took two steps to the door and heard the phone ringing on the windowsill.

Ning Zhiyuan walked over and helped her get it. Ye Ci lowered his head and took it, glanced at it slightly, and found that the call was actually from his grandmother's sanatorium.

Picking it up, there was a slightly hurried voice from Doctor Yao from the nursing home: "Xiao Ye, your father came over today to pick up your grandmother, and there is a woman with him." Do you know this? ”

Ye Ci froze in place and replied eagerly: "No, I don't know!" Doctor Yao, please keep my grandmother, I'll be right away! ”

Ning Zhiyuan heard Ye Ci's words, and hurriedly asked her, "What's wrong?" What happened to my wife? ”

Ye Ci roughly explained to him, took the bag and was about to leave, and turned around and said: "Uncle Ning, my mother is bothering you to take care of it here, and call me after the operation." I'm going to take a look at Aoyama now."

Ning Zhiyuan frowned, and said very uneasily: "No, it's too dangerous for you to go alone."

Ye Ci shook his hand and replied to him: "After all, the sanatorium is still a public place, and they don't dare to mess around."

Ning Zhiyuan thought about it, but still found Yue Yun's phone number and said, "I'll call Xiaoyun and ask him to accompany you!" ”

Ye Ci was so anxious at this time, how could he wait for Yue Yun to come over, let go of Ning Zhiyuan's hand, and said, "Then you let him go to Qingshan to wait for me", turned around and ran out.

Qingshan Hospital is a high-end sanatorium in the deep mountains in the suburbs of Yunzhou, because it is far away from the city, not noisy, and adjacent to the mountain spring and lake, the environment is very good, and it is a place that many elderly people and some families of mentally ill patients who cannot live alone will choose.

Ye Ci's grandmother had a stroke in her brain a few years ago and became a little unrecognizable.

Ye Ci's mother was too busy with school, and Ye Ci was still studying in the UK, so she sent the old man here. I had time to come and take a look, although the old man now doesn't remember his daughter and little granddaughter at all, but in the past few years, he has lived in the sanatorium, but nothing big has happened.

When Ye Ci arrived at the nursing home, Doctor Yao was already waiting for her at the entrance passage of the backyard.

This daughter of Dr. Yao used to be Yin Li's student, and she has always been much more concerned about the affairs of the old lady than others.

Seeing Ye Ci coming, he immediately came up and gave her a glass of boiled water, and said: "I have long heard that your father is going to divorce, and today he came over and said that he would come to pick up your grandmother from the hospital, and I immediately kept an eye on it." The old lady was basking in the sun in the backyard forest, and I called Xiao Lin and Xiao Yang to follow you Don't worry, that is, be careful when you go over, your father still has a woman with him."

Ye Ci nodded in agreement, thanked him, and hurriedly walked into the big forest in the backyard.

Ye Jianbai and Chen Miao were still standing on the side of the old lady's wheelchair and talking at this time, because there were several nurses next to them who were pushing patients out to bask in the sun, so when they saw Ye Ci, they didn't show that they had to rush in.

Instead, Ye Ci looked at them and asked a little excitedly: "Where are you going to take your grandmother, Dad, are you fighting the idea of your grandfather's inheritance?" Mom had an accident, you know? ”

Ye Jianbai seemed to be a little reluctant to speak, and glanced at Chen Miao.

Chen Miao smiled and said, "You push grandma into the house, and I'll talk to Xiao Ye."

Ye Ci stopped the old lady and said, "No, I won't let my grandmother be alone with my father."

Chen Miao laughed when she heard this, and said: "What are you afraid of, there are so many people in the entire sanatorium, it is difficult for your father to kill an old lady, how many years can she live, how many years can your father live."

Ye Ci still didn't let go, Chen Miao was helpless, so she could only beckon a nurse passing by to come over and say, "Come, you push the old lady in together, it's all right."

Ye Ci saw that the nurse was an old nurse she knew before, and glanced at her, as if she had made an instruction, so she agreed to Chen Miao's request and followed her to the back mountain.

Chen Miao didn't wear makeup today, her skin full of spots looked loose and lifeless, looking at Ye Ci, her voice also looked a little tired, she said: "Xiao Ye, even if your father has done something sorry for your mother, he has always been at no fault for you."

Ye Ci didn't know what she meant, so she simply didn't answer, and followed her to continue walking inside.

"I'm looking down on it now, since your family is so opposed, I don't have the luxury of marrying your father. However, I am a big girl's family, I can't give your dad a child for nothing, I don't ask for much, your dad said he has no money, fortunately your grandfather is here."

"Impossible", Ye Ci interrupted her words before Chen Miao finished speaking: "It's your own business to be unclean, why do you covet my grandfather's inheritance, that's my grandmother's lifelong concern, no one has the right to touch it, including me."

Chen Miao snorted and said, "Then I have to go to your mother's college to make trouble." Anyway, I don't want the face, and I don't know if you want that literati mother."

"You!" Ye Ci looked at her and asked with a face full of disbelief: "You are a woman, how can you live like this!?" Don't you even want a little bit of self-esteem? ”

Chen Miao looked at her, looked at the deep woods in front of her, and replied with disdain: "Of course you have self-esteem, of course you can accuse me with this tone." Who made you born with a good family and a good mother? I heard your father say that when you were born, a Taoist priest said that you will never live to be thirty years old in your life. Your mother won't give up on you like this, what about me, I grew up in an orphanage, I am good-looking, what's the use of being admitted to a good university, and I don't want to be played with? Self-esteem, what is that, this is a society that laughs at the poor and does not laugh at prostitutes, with money and power, who cares if the chaste archway you set up is spacious enough? ”

Ye Ci lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said, "No, there are too many people in this world who are more miserable than you. But they are all still trying to live, even if it is a little harder, there is no one like you. You say this only in the hope of excusing yourself for your lack of work."

Chen Miao chuckled lightly and said, "You are just like your □□ mother, you say human-like things, but you never know the suffering of the world. Pretending to be a saint, but eye-to-eye with the teacher in his office, it's no wonder that some men eat your set."

Ye Ci finally couldn't bear it anymore, slapped it over, and shouted: "You are not allowed to slander my mother."

Chen Miao seemed to be also enraged, and pulled out a pointed long-haired hairpin from his arms, and was about to insert it into Ye Ci's body.

Ye Ci took a few steps back abruptly, before she could react. I saw a tall figure suddenly blocking in front of me. With a slight muffled snort, she recognized the person, it was Yue Yun.

Yue Yun was holding his stabbed right hand at this moment, looked back at Ye Ci and shouted: "Are you stupid, is this woman a good one, you just follow her out, do you still have a brain!?" ”

When Chen Miao heard Yue Yun's words, the anger in his heart couldn't help but grow.

Her anger stemmed from Ye Jianbai's inability to give her marriage after all, from her dark and distorted life for so many years, and from Yue Yun's obvious feelings for Ye Ci, this qiē had too much jealousy that she didn't dare to admit.

So as if she was crazy, she suddenly pulled the hairpin out of Yue Yun's wound, turned her head and rushed straight in the direction of Ye Ci.

Ye Ci was startled by her red eyes and stepped back unconsciously.

It wasn't until she heard Yue Yun shouting that she realized that behind her was a suspended stone platform.

However, Chen Miao had already pounced, and Ye Ci watched as his neck was tightly strangled by Chen Miao, and then fell down with her.

In the end, all she could remember was Chen Miao's bloody face.
