Chapter 34 Ants on a Hot Pan

Zhou Xueqin lived in Saint Maria Private Sanitarium. The people residing here were essentially those whose illnesses had penetrated deep into their bones, beyond cure. They were here only to delay the inevitable, to receive the best care in their final days.

Under the escort of a nurse, Fang Anning arrived at the hospital garden and saw an old lady with white hair sitting in a wheelchair.

This old lady was Zhou Xueqin.

Illness had made her look much thinner and haggard. Her hair had turned gray, but from her features, one could tell she must have been a beauty when she was young.

After all, the Zhou family's genes were not bad; otherwise, Zhou Zhaoguo wouldn't have deceived her mother and then Chen Fengjiao.

"Auntie."

Fang Anning walked over, crouched in front of Zhou Xueqin, and opened up the set of jade cups to show her.

Zhou Xueqin had her eyes closed, it was unclear whether she was asleep or just basking in the sun.
