"I didn't expect you to come." When Deng's mother saw her, her eyes were red, her pale face was bloodless, and her lips were pale pink and cracked, which made her eyes look especially clear.

Su Yelai's heart contracted violently and the hairs on his back stood up.

She seemed to have seen such a scene before. It was so familiar, but when she searched through her memories, she couldn't remember it.

Perhaps, this is the subconscious mind, and this scene has been foreseen long ago.

After regaining his composure, Su Yelai walked forward slowly.

A ventilator has been installed next to the bed, and a machine for measuring pulse and heartbeat is flashing.

All this told her that Mo Xiaoting had indeed experienced rescue before, and besides, her condition could not lie.

Mo Xiaoting’s rescue was real.

"Come, sit next to mom." Zhai Hao greeted her like a patriarch.

Su Yelai gave him a cold look.

However, Zhai Hao's appearance must have been premeditated. When the hospital contacted her, they said that the woman was alone. If Zhai Hao was there, the hospital would not have to contact her specifically.

If Zhai Hao came later, the speed would not be so fast. Conservatively speaking, he must have been on this bed for more than an hour.

The air was filled with a light smell of tobacco, but there was no trace of cigarette butts or anything like that. The doctors and nurses only allowed him to smoke in the ward.

Therefore, Zhai Hao must have smoked before walking in, and there was a smell of cigarette on his body.

The smell of smoke in the room was very light and evenly distributed, from the door to the ward, getting closer to Zhai Hao, but the smell did not change much.

So he must have been there for quite some time, and the smell had long since dissipated.

Su Yelai gradually approached the bed and smiled: "Uncle Zhai, when did you come?"

"I just got here not long ago." Zhai Hao answered subconsciously.

Mo Xiaoting looked back in surprise, but didn't say much.

Su Yelai saw it clearly.

"Xiao Lai, I miss you so much." Mo Xiaoting lay on the bed, stretching out her hand to reach Su Yelai, but the distance was not enough and she didn't have much strength, so she had to give up, but tears fell uncontrollably.

"Mom didn't have the chance to grow up with you, nor did she have the chance to marry and have children with you. It was my fault for being absent from your life and causing you trouble..."

As he spoke, he became choked with sobs and could no longer speak.

Su Yelai was moved, and went up to hold her hand: "Take good care of yourself, don't think too much, you will get better."

Mo Xiaoting shook her head: "I know my own body."

"Xiao Lai, I know you resent mom in your heart, and resent me for asking someone to find connections to help Yueyue. Yueyue used to target you because she liked Yanbei, but if mom doesn't help, I always hear her crying in my dreams at night, and I really can't bear to ignore it."

When Su Yelai heard her talking about Deng Jiuyue, her attitude became even colder. In the end, it was still Deng Jiuyue.

She couldn't say: I don't blame you for saying that, she blames her.

It’s not that I blame her for wanting to help Deng Jiuyue, but that I blame her for not cherishing herself.

"So you didn't hesitate to use your sick body, ask for help from all your connections, and exhausted yourself for Deng Jiyue. Do you know that it is almost impossible for Deng Jiyue to come out?"

"I know……"

Su Yelai looked at Mo Xiaoting, who looked weak but was actually stubborn, and her temper flared up.

Knowing that you still have to work so hard, would you rather ruin your body?

You are really committing suicide!

"Then do you think it's worth it? To waste your life just for her? Don't you also regret that you didn't have the chance to grow up with me? Am I not right in front of you? Why don't you think about taking good care of yourself for me? Don't you think about the fact that no one will see me off when I get married?"

"No, I will tell Xiaozhan that she is your uncle and he will come to see you off at the wedding. And Xiao Jingyuan, he is your cousin..."

Su Yelai couldn't listen any longer: "So, what about you? You hand over your tasks to others, do you think I'm not worth your time and effort?"

"No, Xiao Lai..." Mo Xiaoting sobbed. She couldn't say the words after all: "I may not survive the next month. I won't have time to see you get married."

She knew that if she told it to Su Yelai, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.

She really owed this daughter.

I told her that both the palms and the backs of my hands are made of flesh and blood, but in the end, I was thinking about Yueyue instead of Xiaolai.

Zhai Hao frowned: "Don't be angry with your mother. She is already like this now. Let's just live in harmony."

Only then did Su Yelai realize that there was a third person in the ward. She had completely forgotten about him when she was so excited just now.

"Then Mr. Zhai, you seem to have a deep affection for her, but you watched her running around without doing anything to save her. What position do you have to speak from? Don't you have some ability? Isn't Deng Jiyue your goddaughter? You went to save her? Why? You don't want to?"

Su Yelai asked questions repeatedly, but there was an unmistakable sarcasm in her tone, and no anger could be heard at all.

If he wasn't in front of Tingting, he wouldn't have to answer at all, just one sentence: "He doesn't want to save."

But in front of Tingting, he had to put on a good show.

"I also asked for help from my connections, but the situation is too serious and no one is willing to help. I looked for Mr. Qin, but couldn't convince him. I also looked for Qin Yanbei, but I didn't expect that he was in the same group as Deng Jiuyue and is now under investigation. Hey... Xiao Lai, let me think of another way."

These words seemed to be an explanation to Su Yelai, but were actually spoken to Mo Xiaoting.

Of course, the relationship between Qin Yanbei and Deng Jiuyue was also emphasized.

Mo Xiaoting sighed: "Forget it, he has tried his best. Yueyue is not that lucky."

Thinking of Qin Yanbei, she spoke again with difficulty: "Yanbei is still under investigation. If he is in jail, you should not wait any longer. A woman's youth is short. Find a suitable person to marry. My daughter is beautiful and smart. She will definitely find someone who loves you in the future."

"As for Yanbei... Hey, I watched him grow up, and I have always considered him half my son. Just treat him as your brother, and when you get out, you two siblings can support each other."

Su Yelai really couldn't understand her train of thought.

When he first recognized her, he proposed that she and Deng Jiuyue be good sisters, and now he proposed that she and Qin Yanbei be good siblings.

Is it that the Deng family has no children and is looking for a child to recognize everywhere?

"The incident in Yanbei is very serious. Xiaolai should not have too much contact with it. Stay away from the Qin family to avoid being affected." Zhai Hao was thinking about Su Yelai.

Mo Xiaoting sighed again.

The Deng family has fallen into decline, and even the Qin family is about to fall into decline.

"Xiao Lai, Uncle Zhai is a good man. You should treat him as an elder and listen to his advice more in the future. You are young and inexperienced, and you still don't understand many things. Uncle Zhai is an experienced person and can give you appropriate advice."

Su Yelai lowered her eyes and looked at the 48-year-old woman. She was such a naive person. No matter how old she got, she still couldn't lose her innocence.

But if you think about it carefully, every word Zhai Hao said in the ward was very confusing.

He has been in the ward for so long, but he seems to have not taken any action at all.

It seemed as if he was here simply to accompany the patient.

If he deliberately waited for her to come, what was his purpose and what did he want to do?

I don't know at all.

He didn't do anything, and a lot of his advice sounded like it was for her own good.

There was only one sentence just now that had some purpose, which was to advise her to stay away from the Qin family.

But how could it be considered a conspiracy for her to stay away from the Qin family?

When Su Yelai stepped into the ward and saw Zhai Hao for the first time, her suspicion of him instantly reached 100%, but now thinking about it carefully, it has gradually dropped to 80%.

Or maybe she was just too suspicious, or maybe Mo Xiaoting was the one who truly saw through everything.

Who knows?

Su Yelai could feel that she was at the edge of the storm, and because of this, she could not see the center of the storm clearly.

She is still a little confused. The truth is a complete mystery to her.

She waited patiently, waiting for time to wash away the confusion and gradually reveal the truth.

She won't interfere, she just needs to wait.
