I'LL HAVE HER DONATE

"Yu Jun is not just anyone, he is my savior," sorrow flickered across Bai Qing's pale face.

Mo Xiao found the excuse far-fetched.

"If you don't want to see me, then I'll leave." Mo Xiao's gaze was icy. "Bai Qing, you should call your uncle."

With that, Mo Xiao turned and left.

Bai Qing felt utterly powerless.

Mo Xiao always used her uncle to threaten her.

Was he forcing her to donate bone marrow to Yun Qiqi?

How could someone be so greedy?

Then again, she was greedy too.

She selfishly stayed by Mo Xiao's side, hoping he would notice her, fall for her.

In the end, she realized something.

She wasn't even the moth drawn to the flame.

Mo Xiao's fire never burned for her.

Enough is enough.

She was truly exhausted.

It would be best to divorce soon; she wanted to leave this place.

She didn't want to see anyone else get hurt because of her.

After calming herself, she slipped on her shoes and left the hospital room.

She wanted to check on Yu Jun's condition.

At the door of Yu Jun's room, she saw Yu Qi sitting on a chair outside.

"Xiao Qi, didn't you go home?" Bai Qing walked over.

Yu Qi's eyes were red from exhaustion. She shook her head.

"You can't go on like this," Bai Qing said with concern. "You've been up all night; you should get some rest."

"Bai Qing, don't persuade me. I'm not leaving my brother." Yu Qi's voice was hoarse.

"But without eating, drinking, or resting, how will your body hold up?" Bai Qing's worry deepened.

"Bai Qing, I'm scared," Yu Qi wrapped her arms around herself. "I'm afraid that when I wake up, my brother will be gone, just like my parents. They said they were on duty, but they never came back."

"Yu Qi, that won't happen," Bai Qing sat down next to her, embracing her gently. "Yu Jun will be fine, he will."

"Bai Qing, I've already lost my parents. I can't lose my brother too," Yu Qi's voice broke with sobs. "You don't know, after I was adopted, life was so hard. I missed my parents, missed my brother, missed you. It wasn't until I became an adult that I found my brother again. He's my only family."

Bai Qing didn't know what to say.

"Unlike you, my brother and I weren't so lucky. Madam Mo adores you, your life is like heaven, while my brother and I… it wasn't hell, but it was full of hardship," Yu Qi sniffled. "If anything happens to him, I'll be completely alone."

"Yu Qi, Yu Jun will be okay, I'll stay with you and wait for him to wake up," Bai Qing held Yu Qi's hand reassuringly.

"Thank you," Yu Qi finally broke down, sobbing in Bai Qing's arms.

Her emotions had unraveled completely.

Bai Qing patted her back gently, comforting her, "We'll wait together for your brother to wake up. Don't be afraid."

"Mm," Yu Qi nodded.

They sat quietly for a long time.

Bai Qing stood, intending to buy something for Yu Qi to eat.

But just then, she noticed Shen Wan hurriedly approaching.

"Mom," Bai Qing greeted awkwardly.

Why was Shen Wan here?

"I went to your house, but neither you nor Mo Xiao were there. The housekeeper said you were hospitalized. What happened? Are you alright?" Shen Wan asked, her concern palpable.

"Mom, I'm fine," Bai Qing shook her head lightly. "Sorry you came all this way for nothing."

"You don't have to apologize," Shen Wan frowned. "Being hospitalized is serious. You should have told us. Keeping it from us only makes us worry more."

"I'm sorry," Bai Qing lowered her head, staring at her toes like a chastened child.

She knew Shen Wan truly cared about her.

"Bai Qing, is this… your mother?" Yu Qi asked, stunned.

Bai Qing quickly composed herself. "Let me introduce you. Yu Qi, this is my mother-in-law, Shen Wan. Mom, this is my good friend, Yu Qi. Her brother is the one who saved my life."

Shen Wan was visibly shocked. "Your savior?"

Bai Qing hesitated before explaining the situation to Shen Wan.

Something this big couldn't be kept secret.

After listening, Shen Wan's eyes grew cold. "So, someone tried to kill you?"

Bai Qing nodded.

"I see. I'll handle this," Shen Wan's tone was resolute. As a lawyer, and with Bai Qing being her daughter-in-law, she wasn't going to let it slide.

"Miss Yu, thank you for what your brother did for Bai Qing. But staying here alone isn't a solution. Go home and rest. I'll arrange for someone to look after your brother. You'll be informed immediately if anything happens," Shen Wan spoke decisively.

"But…" Yu Qi still hesitated.

"Miss Yu, trust me," Shen Wan's words were firm and reassuring.

Yu Qi nodded. "Alright then."

After Yu Qi left, Shen Wan turned to Bai Qing, her eyes sharp. "You're here alone, where's Mo Xiao?"

Bai Qing hesitated.

Shen Wan snorted coldly and headed for the elevator.

"Mom!" Bai Qing rushed after her.

But Shen Wan had already entered the elevator.

Bai Qing felt a shiver run down her spine.

Shen Wan was on her way up. She would not go easy on Yun Qiqi.

And when Mo Xiao saw Shen Wan, he would surely think Bai Qing had complained to her.

Shen Wan already knew which room Yun Qiqi was in.

If she didn't, she wouldn't be Shen Wan.

As Shen Wan reached the room, she overheard Yun Qiqi speaking: "Mo Xiao, tell me the truth. The person with the matching bone marrow, is it Bai Qing?"

Mo Xiao's voice was indifferent. "It's her."

"So she's refusing to donate to me?" Yun Qiqi asked, tears in her voice.

"I'll persuade her," Mo Xiao's tone was icy.

"Mo Xiao, why is she so selfish?" Yun Qiqi sobbed pitifully. "Because of her, we were separated for three years. Those years were stolen from me. Now, I'm running out of time. All I want is for her to give back what she took."

Mo Xiao's expression darkened. "I'll find a way to make her agree."

Yun Qiqi wept, "Mo Xiao, she married you only for your family's wealth. I can understand that, she has no parents, so having a fortune to rely on must be appealing. We can give her a lot of money, or whatever she wants. I can even beg her if necessary."

Mo Xiao frowned. "You don't need to kneel before her."

A glint of malice flashed in Yun Qiqi's eyes, though her voice remained trembling. "Mo Xiao, is it because she can't bear to leave you, that's why she won't donate?"

Mo Xiao didn't respond, his expression cold.

"Mo Xiao, if nothing else works, deceive her. Pretend you're not divorcing her, make her donate the bone marrow to me. Then, after some time, find a way to leave her. You know you can do it," Yun Qiqi suggested slyly.

"There's no need for that. I'll have her donate within three days," Mo Xiao replied coldly.
