Xia Yehua had had a heart condition for a long time.

After being continually provoked like this, surely, she would feel unwell.

As Qiao Lian held her, she realized that Xia Yehua’s arms were shaking with anger.

Turning to Shen Liangchuan, she said, “Let’s go home first.”

Shen Liangchuan nodded at her suggestion.

He walked over to them and was about to leave the venue with Xia Yehua when Shen Xiu stood in their way. “You will not leave today until you’ve clarified the matter!”

He glared at Xia Yehua and demanded, “What are you doing here? Looking for your long-time lover? Li Chenyu’s father?”

Xia Yehua frowned at the remark.

She had never been one to admit defeat easily. Hence, even though she was feeling unwell, she persisted.

She immediately retorted, “A foul mouth has nothing pleasant to say. Not everyone is as petty as you! There is nothing going on between Li Chenyu’s father and me.”

“Nothing going on? Then what are you doing here? Isn’t it for the sake of helping Shen Liangchuan secure investors?”

She hesitated and in her silence, Shen Xiu immediately jumped up and continued, “How old do you think you are to be behaving like a b*tch? Li Chenyu’s father already has a wife. Aren’t you a bit shameless to want to play mistress when you’re already in your fifties?

Xia Yehua was shaking even more violently after hearing Shen Xiu’s words.

Her fingers were trembling uncontrollably. She wanted to say something but, in her fury, when she opened her mouth to speak, no words came out.

Seeing this situation, Qiao Lian quickly stepped forward and said, “Mr. Shen, please get out of our way. If there’s anything else, we can discuss it in private. But for now, we’re going home!”

Shen Xiu fumed and replied, “Since when are you in a position to speak? And furthermore, why should we need to discuss it in private? Because the things that you’ve done cannot be spoken of in public?”

“All the more, I want to speak about it. Back then you were entangled with Li Chenyu’s father, you both were in an ambiguous relations.h.i.+p. Eventually, you found an excuse and left the Shen Family empty-handed! B*tch! All these years, you must have been particularly unrestrained and carefree?”

“So be it if you didn’t care about me! But you didn’t even take care of Zihao. Don’t you feel that you’ve failed him?”

Every remark was devastating to Xia Yehua. She turned pale.

Her chest heaved badly as she extended her hand and pointed her trembling finger at Shen Xiu.

She opened her mouth to speak but found herself speechless with anger.

Still pointing at Shen Xiu, she looked intently at Shen Zihao

And that look carried complete despair and hopelessness.

Was that the person her younger son perceived her to be?

No wonder Shen Zihao had never forgiven her!

However, all the explanations and all the fury she had inside amounted only to the words, “You’re speaking nonsense—”

Yet these words were all she could manage with the efforts she had mustered.

Then, she pa.s.sed out.

“Mom!”

–

In the hospital’s operating theatre.

The nurses and doctors moved in and out busily.

Incapable of sitting still, Shen Liangchuan and Qiao Lian stood outside waiting.

They were as anxious as anything.

Last time Xia Yehua had pa.s.sed out as a result of agitation, the doctor had said that she was not to be triggered.

This time…

As they were worrying about these things, the doctor came out and walked towards them.

Looking at the both of them, he told the nurse, “Please get me the Critical State Form.”

At those words, Qiao Lian’s legs almost gave way.

She looked at Shen Liangchuan and saw that his expression had changed too.

The Critical State Form…

It meant that Mom’s life was in danger.
