“Why?” Cheng Che asked hesitantly.
Mu Chen rolled up the paper in his hand and knocked Cheng Che’s head. “How would I know? Go and investigate.”
At this moment, realization dawned on Cheng Che. He said, “You mean to say that Director Wang’s daughter’s death might be related to the two cousins. She agreed to treat them, but she has no intention of treating them for real?!”
Mu Chen shook his head. “I’m not sure either. However, everything is connected for sure.”
Cheng Che nodded. “You’re right. The entire thing is problematic. However, Brother, why did Director Wang invite sister-in-law to join her? I’m sure she knows sister-in-law will be able to see through the problem. She clearly did this on purpose, but why?”
Cheng Che was a little anxious. When he thought about how his sister-in-law was risking her life for him, he could not remain calm.
Mu Chen said in a deep voice, “It’s indeed strange, but don’t worry. Song Ning will definitely protect herself.”
How could Cheng Che not worry? If it were possible, he would rather risk his own life. Because of his problem, the entire family had to suffer.
…
Meanwhile, Song Ning, whom everyone was worried about, sat across from Director Wang.
The monitor at the side showed the two Young Masters of the Yin family.
Song Ning could not help the chill that ran up her spine.
Director Wang personally brewed tea for Song Ning. Her movements were as smooth as flowing water, meticulous and unhurried.
As time passed, the restlessness in Song Ning’s heart gradually faded away. After she accepted the teacup from Director Wang, she sniffed it and said praisingly, “Good tea…”
Director Wang was slightly surprised. “I didn’t expect you to know about tea…”
Song Ning smiled. “Teacher likes tea. My grandma likes tea as well. I don’t really know much about tea. What I know is what I learned from them…”
Director Wang smiled. “Back then, Elder Zhuang loved tea as well.”
Song Ning was shocked by the words ‘Elder Zhuang’. It had been a long time since she had last heard these two words.
Director Wang looked at Song Ning and said gently, “Surprised? Back then, Elder Zhuang saved my life. Because of him, I decided to study medicine and help the world like he did. I want to be respected by others.”
“My grandpa saved you?” Song Ning was puzzled.
Director Wang chuckled. “He saved my mother and helped us to settle down. If it weren’t for him, my mother and I would have died long ago, and I wouldn’t even have a chance to study medicine.”
When Director Wang saw the shocked expression on Song Ning’s face, she spread her arms and said, “Look, the world is so small. I didn’t expect us to have so many connections as well. So don’t worry. I won’t hurt you. I’ll remember those who helped me for the rest of my life.”
Song Ning’s gaze fell on the monitor.
Upon seeing this, Director Wang said clearly and decisively, “As for the people who harmed me, I’ll do my best to experience what living in hell feels like…”
Chills ran up Song Ning’s spin again.
Director Wang refilled Song Ning’s cup before she took a sip from her own cup. Then, she said slowly, “My mother was born into a prestigious family. After marrying my father, my father schemed against, resulting in the family’s decline. My father drowned his sorrows in alcohol and slowly became addicted. After that, he would punch and kick my mother. He even almost killed her. At that time, Elder Zhuang was coincidentally in the hospital where my mother was treated for a program. At that time, he treated my mother and pulled her back from the gates of hell. At that time, I was still young and did not know much. I only overheard the nurses saying that if it weren’t Elder Zhuang, even if mother had twenty lives, she still would not have survived.”
