Then, there was a tender voice, “Aunt…”
Yue Wanqing and Ning Qing turned and looked. Xu Junxi and Ning Yao stood nearby.
Ning Qing was shocked. The world was so small. The two of them came to this hospital and ran into them.
“Mom, let’s go back to the room.” Ning Qing held her mom by her arm and obviously didn’t want to talk to the two of them.
Yue Wanqing nodded. although the personal scores among the older generation weren’t related to the next generation, Ning Yao’s mother, Li Meiling ruined her family, she couldn’t treat Ning Yao like her own daughter anymore.
As the meeting would be so awkward, they might as well avoid it.
The pair of mother and daughter walked towards the ward.
Xu Junxi saw that Ning Qing treated him like air, his handsome face grew dispirited while Ning Yao who was next to him was rather excited. “Aunt, how are you feeling? A few days ago, sister wanted to borrow money from Junxi for your operation fees. But when Junxi wanted to lend it to her, she said that she already got the money.”
Yue Wanqing stopped walking.
Ning Qing’s face grew grave. There was fire in her eyes. No matter how she fights with Ning Yao, she had a line that could not be crossed, such as her mom.
“Mom, she’s Li Meiling’s daughter. Don’t listen to her. Let’s leave.”
“Aunt, I have a piece of great news to tell you. Sister was in entertainment circle for three years and she finally pa.s.sed a screen test today. She’s the female lead role in Street Walker. Director w.a.n.g was exceptionally nice to Sister.”
Ning Yao stressed on the word “nice” and she successfully portrayed an ambiguous relations.h.i.+p.
Yue Wanqing looked lost. She pulled her arm back from Ning Qing’s hand. She looked at Ning Qing and spoke in a s.h.i.+vering voice, “Qingqing, what entertainment circle, what Director w.a.n.g? I don’t understand. Why do you have time to go to such places. Aren’t you learning piano in school?”
Ning Qing was hurt by her mother’s gaze. She extended her hand and wanted to hold her mom. “Mom, let’s go back to the room. Listen to me as I explain myself.”
Yue Wanqing took a step back but didn’t let Ning Qing touch her. She face was pale and her head ached. Her fragile body staggered and she looked like she was going to faint.
“Mom…” Ning Qing’s eyes welled up with tears. She knew that the truth would reveal itself. Her mom would have found out about this one day, but not now.
“Aunt, what piano? Don’t you know that sister studies at the Beijing Film Academy, the school for people who want to enter the entertainment circle and become an actor?”
“Ning Yao, that’s enough. Shut up!” Ning Qing held her fist tightly. She raised her voice and there was warning and anger in her tone.
Ning Yao looked at Ning Qing as she raised her eyebrows. It felt great to take revenge, “Aiya, sister, look, Aunt is going to faint…”
Ning Qing heard a thud and she turned around and saw that Yue Wanqing fell on the ground.
“Mom!” Ning Qing ran forward and knelt down on the ground. She carried Yue Wanqing in her embrace and her tears flowed down her cheeks. She shook her head nervously and cried, “Mom, what happened to you? Don’t scare Qingqing. Mom, wake up, Mom…”
Xu Junxi saw Ning Qing then and he felt pain. His heart felt like it was being squeezed and he was suffocating.
Ning Qing was always strong and stubborn before him. But she was crying for her mom, she said to not scare Qingqing. She was like a helpless child.
Why wasn’t she willing to do so before him?
Is he not a person that she loves?
Xu Junxi realized that he was running when he came back to reality. He left Ning Yao and ran towards Ning Qing. She was helpless then, she needed him.
Xu Junxi wanted to call for the doctor but there were a bunch of doctors and nurses running towards them. They hoisted Yue Wanqing, who fainted, onto the cart and pushed her into the emergency room.
His attention was directed at a gentleman. He was the one who brought the doctor. He leaned down and helped Ning Qing who was crying on the ground.
Ning Qing stood outside the emergency room and wailed while the gentleman comforted her. Although there weren’t any intimate actions, he could tell that Ning Qing believed in him.
Xu Junxi smirked. Every time he wanted to get close to her, there were always men around her.
She was never lacking men…
Hence, she didn’t bother with him.
…
As Xu Junxi made wild guesses, someone grabbed his right arm again. It was Ning Yao who was left behind earlier. She caught up and held his arm again.
He saw that Ning Qing looked over. Her eyes were red and there were tears on her face but she clenched her fists and walked over with chilly gleams of hatred.
Ning Qing walked before Ning Yao and raised her right hand to slap Ning Yao.
There was a breeze that blew past Xu Junxi’s face and he extended his hand to hold Ning Qing’s wrist in the air, “Ning Qing, all the lies would be exposed. It’s not Yao Yao’s fault. You shouldn’t have lied to…”
Before “your mom” came out from his throat, there were two slaps. Ning Qing used her left hand to slap Ning Yao.
Ning Yao was dumbfounded. She knew that Xu Junxi would protect her and would stop Ning Qing’s right hand, so she wasn’t afraid. She looked at Ning Qing smugly and provocatively.
