Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful Chapter 525 - Level of Complexity Increases (1)

Chapter 525: Level of Complexity Increases (1)

Zhao Youlin stood at the side. When she heard Duan Yarong’s words, she quickly said, “Mother, don’t worry about it too much. Despite the fact that the cut is deep, the doctor stated that it has not caused any damage to her bones or tendons. Try not to come into contact with water for the next few days until her wound has healed. Also, she has lost a lot of blood and requires more nutrients. Furthermore, the doctor said that An Qi could be discharged from the hospital in two days. I’m thinking that because the hospital environment isn’t ideal, she could go home after two days and we could have our kitchen lady prepare nutritional meals and send them to her. What are your thoughts?”

Duan Yarong nodded and agreed with her. “Look at An Qi, she looks very pale. She needs more nutrients. I’ll have our kitchen lady prepare some nutritious meals for her so that we can bring some to her tomorrow. Indeed, the hospital environment is far from ideal. Since the doctor has stated that she could be released from the hospital soon, we shall do according to the doctor’s instruction, then. After all, it’s best to recuperate at home as everything is fully-equipped.”

“Don’t bother yourself. It’s only a minor ailment. There’s no need to go to such lengths. I’ll be fine after a couple of days of rest. There’s also no need to bother someone with sending me meals.” Upon hearing Duan Yarong’s words, An Qi’s heart swelled with warmth. However, she declined their offer. Even though Duan Yarong was about to become a member of her family, she did not like causing problems for others.

Meanwhile, Duan Yarong believed An Qi was too embarra.s.sed to accept her offer. She held An Qi’s hand and said, “Please accept this. If it hadn’t been for your help, Yue Yue would have been hurt.”

An Qi was stunned. She turned her head around and cast a glance at An Yue before she said faintly, “An Qi is my younger sister. It’s only natural for me to act this way.”

Upon hearing An Qi’s words, Duan Yarong frowned and said in a disagreeable tone, “Even though Yue Yue is your younger sister, she is also my future daughter-in-law. She would officially become one in a few days. You are her older sister, and we are about to become a family. You don’t have to treat us like strangers. I’d be disappointed if you keep going like this.”

When Zhao Youlin saw this, she quickly played along with Duan Yarong, “That’s right. An Qi, as my mother mentioned, please take our offer.”

Saying this, Zhao Youlin shot a glance at An Yue. An Yue received the hint and took An Qi’s hand into hers. She said shyly, “They are right. An Qi, say yes to them. After all, we are a… family soon.”

An Qi cast a glance at her younger sister before looking at Duan Yarong and the rest of her group with sincere expressions. She felt happy and relieved that An Yue would have them as in-laws.

An Qi smiled as she relaxed the creases in her brows. She eventually caved in and said, “Fine. I’m sorry if I have to bother you all.”

“Good. We’re delighted to hear this. Yue Yue would look after you in the house for a few days. The wedding issue is almost resolved, and I’ll take care of the rest. You don’t have to be concerned about it.”

“Okay!”

While the atmosphere inside the ward was light-hearted, no one paid attention to the person standing at the corner. Nie Yunfan appeared to be as quiet as a mouse, in contrast to his usual demeanor. There was a hint of complex emotion in his eyes when he saw An Qi’s relieved smile.

After paying a visit to An Qi and reminding her to rest well, Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong left the ward. Of course, Zhao Youlin, Mu Tingfeng and Han Yichen also left with them.

The ward door was shut. Duan Yarong walked a few more steps to ensure that her voice was not heard. She then asked coolly in a dark expression, “What exactly had happened?”

It was only natural for her not to mention this while she was inside An Qi’s ward. However, once Duan Yarong had left the ward, this was the thing she was most concerned about.

Duan Yarong appeared to be a gentle person. This was her appearance before someone activated her minefield. Being a mother had made her stronger than she had been before. As a result, she was willing to confront Sun Fengzi for the sake of Zhao Youlin.

Now, the person who had made enemies of An Yue despite knowing that An Yue was her daughter-in-law had truly broken Duan Yarong’s taboo. Regardless of who the person was, she certainly would not spare her!

“Mother, the young lady of the Xie family was the one who attacked Yue Yue and her older sister.” When she saw Duan Yarong in her current state, Zhao Youlin realized she could no longer hide from her. She quickly summarised the main point.

“Young lady of the Xie family?” Duan Yarong did not react on the spot. It took her some time to think about it before she was enlightened, “Is it the same young lady of the Xie family who put Yue Yue in a difficult position last time?”

Zhao Youlin gave a nod. Duan Yarong’s expression grew increasingly gloomy. “Why would she show up here? Why did she attack Yue Yue all of a sudden? She hasn’t given up, has she? Did she believe that she could still be the madam of the Zhao family after killing Yue Yue?”

Duan Yarong was not as naive as An Yue. She had already realized that Xie Yuqing was interested in her son at the banquet that day. Therefore, she had stepped forward and advocated for An Yue at that precise moment. She had issued a warning to Xie Yuqing.

Even so, Xie Yuqing thought her warning was pointless.

“Well… this is only a small part of it. She wouldn’t have committed the crime just for the sake of this. However, this could be the start of everything. The reason she committed her crime was connected to this as well.”

Duan Yarong was confused upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s ambiguous words. She asked in puzzlement, “What do you mean?”

Zhao Youlin thought it over before she decided to tell Duan Yarong about the fact that Xie Yuqing had appeared in Sheng Huang Group and had been pestering Han Yichen on a daily basis since her banquet. After she was refused by Han Yichen, she had, in turn, appeared at Zhao Enterprise and made a fuss out of it. As a result, she had inadvertently pushed the pregnant young lady of the Su family down, and nearly caused her to miscarry. Her action had enraged the Su family. The young master of the Su family was infuriated and resolved to destroy the Xie family within a month.

Xie Yuqing, a former princess, had become a peasant. She could not accept the truth, so she blamed An Yue entirely for it. She blamed An Yue for convincing Han Yichen to attack her family, which led to her current situation. All of this was revealed to Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong by Zhao Youlin.

Duan Yarong’s expression grew increasingly dark as she heard Zhao Youlin’s words. She furrowed her eyebrows and said unhappily, “Why didn’t you tell me and your father about all of this earlier?”

Zhao Shunrong stood at the side. He remained quiet. However, his dark expression turned darker than thunderclouds. Apparently, he was in the same mood as Duan Yarong at that moment.

When Zhao Youlin saw this, she hurriedly said, “Mother, Father, you guys have been busy preparing for Yichen and my wedding recently. We thought that it was nothing major. Besides, this issue was vexing us so we resolved it on our own. We had no idea it would turn into such a shambles and even affect Yue Yue and An Qi”

“Not a big deal, huh? An Qi almost lost her life! How can you say that it’s nothing big?” Duan Yarong was terrified the moment she recalled that a member of her family had been stabbed. As such, she inevitably spoke more harshly..
