I rushed into Qinyu's hospital room like a madwoman.
Qinyu lay on the bed with a rosy complexion, eating cherries.
Seeing me, she smiled brilliantly and smugly.
"You're here, thank you so much for selling the house to raise my medical expenses."
My mind exploded with a buzzing sound, and all the blood in my body rushed to my head.
That house was the inheritance left to me by my mother, sold with great pain to save Beibei's life.
Why should this money be used for her!
"Give me back my money!"
I was almost screaming.
"That's my daughter's lifesaving money!"
Qinyu curled her lips sarcastically, "Want to take the money back? Sure. Kneel down and beg me."
The money is still there, there's still hope for Beibei!
At that moment, I had no other thoughts in my mind.
Thud—
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, I unhesitatingly knelt in front of her.
"I beg you."
"For a daughter sentenced to death long ago, you're really willing to go all out."
I didn't care about her cold sarcasm; as long as I could get the money back, I was willing to do anything.
"I beg you... give me back the money; Beibei can still be saved! She's so young and hasn't seen the world; she shouldn't go like this!"
Qinyu immediately burst into laughter, "Oh dear, it's too late. I had my surgery the day before yesterday."
"What?!" I was thunderstruck, standing there in disbelief.
It turned out Ling Yue had long decided to cancel Beibei's surgery, yet he let me and the child foolishly hope for her recovery.
Beibei grew up in a hospital bed, enduring endless hardships.
Her tiny hands are covered with needle marks, without a patch of intact skin.
She can't run, can't jump, every breath is a struggle; I haven't slept a full night in three years.
Every day, she watches kids going to school to play, wishing to be a happy child too.
But just when she was closest to being a normal person, Ling Yue personally stripped her of that chance.
How could he be so ruthless and heartless; Beibei is his own flesh and blood!
Heartache and anger drove me to madness.
I raised my right hand and slapped Qinyu across the face with a "slap."
"You can insult me, curse me, take my man, but you cannot touch my child's lifesaving money!"
Qinyu glared at me angrily, raising her hand, ready to hit back.
But she glanced behind me and suddenly, clutching her cheek, fell back.
"Qinyu!"
A familiar voice sounded behind me.
Just as I was about to turn, the person gave me a hard shove from behind.
"Bang!" I fell to the ground, my head slamming into the iron frame.
Blood instantly rushed down from my forehead into my eyes, staining the whole world red.
Yet Ling Yue didn't spare me a glance, only rushing to care for Qinyu.
"Qinyu, are you alright? Doctor, doctor!"
The tone was one of tenderness, a careful protectiveness I'd never heard before.
