Chapter 20 Which Daughter To Help

During the meal, Ning Shan, elder Mrs. Gu, and Gu Minghuai ate happily, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Even though Mrs. Gu and the other two were holding a grudge, they couldn’t vent their anger when they saw Ning Shan being protected by elder Mrs. Gu.

After sending elder Mrs. Gu back to her residence, the Gu family’s elder brother and sister-in-law looked at Mrs. Gu anxiously, “Mother, this woman…”

Mrs. Gu interrupted them unhappily, “Both of you are useless. There’s nothing you can do to help. Alright, I’m going out for a while!”

She went to the Jiang family and went straight to Mrs. Ning.

Mrs. Gu told her the whole story, she was still angry. She slammed her fist onto the leather couch, “I don’t know if mother-in-law was blinded or not, but she actually thought fondly of this kind of woman.”

Mrs. Ning did not expect that elder Mrs. Gu would actually like Ning Shan. She suddenly thought of something, “This matter must be resolved immediately. Mrs. Gu, thank you for telling me. Please let me think of a way.”

After Mrs. Gu left, Mrs. Ning stood in front of the window for a long time. In the end, she clenched her fist slightly, as if she had made up her mind.

The next day, a black Bentley was parked at the entrance of the Municipal People’s Hospital. A lady dressed elegantly and nobly got out of the car.

Mrs. Ning wore sunglasses and slowly walked inside under an umbrella held by her bodyguard. When she arrived in front of Ning Zhiyuan’s ward, she looked around and asked the people around her, “Is this the right room?”

“Yes, Madam,” the bodyguard answered.

Mrs. Ning walked in with her high heels and knocked on the door, then gracefully walked into the ward.

“Shanshan, you are here to see dad…” Ning Zhiyuan heard the noise, and his smile was still on his face. When he saw who it was, his smile instantly froze.

“Ziran?” He couldn’t believe it. The noble lady in front of him was so high and mighty. He really couldn’t believe it. Was this his simple ex-wife he hadn’t seen for more than ten years?

Mrs. Ning pulled out a chair and sat down. “It’s me. I’m here to see you, Ning Zhiyuan.”

“Thank you for coming to see me.” Ning Zhiyuan sighed. “I told Yun ‘er not to disturb you. I didn’t expect…”

Mrs. Ning looked at him coldly. “Ning Zhiyuan, I’m not just here to see you today. I have something important to tell you. Please help Yun ‘er seek justice.”

“What do you mean to seek justice? What’s wrong with Yun ‘er?” Ning Zhiyuan was a little anxious.

Mrs. Ning snorted coldly from her nose. “Your good daughter, Ning Shan, used trickeries to snatch Yun ‘er’s fiancé away and moved into that person’s house by herself! Yun ‘er is also your daughter. Tell me, shouldn’t you speak up for your daughter?”

Mrs. Ning’s every word was like a sharp chisel, hammering away at Ning Zhiyuan’s heart.

“What did you say?” Ning Zhiyuan shouted out involuntarily. “I’ve watched Shanshan grow up since she was young. She’s kind and innocent. It’s impossible for her to do such a thing.”

“Kind and innocent?” Ning’s mother stared at her ex-husband viciously, “I’m afraid that she has lost that in the city where there are so many good things to do, hasn’t she? Yun ‘er treated her so well, yet she actually did such a thing as stealing someone’s husband. The degree of shamelessness has already exceeded my expectations. Otherwise, think about it. Where did she get such a large sum of money all of a sudden? For her to be able to perform the surgery on you, it was all because Ning Shan cheated Yun ‘er’s fiancé into giving her the money!”

Ning Zhiyuan’s face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his heart, and his entire body started to spasm. Although he couldn’t believe it, the hard facts were right in front of him. The huge surgery fee, the video call with Ning Shan yesterday, and the exquisitely decorated and luxurious room behind her.

Ning Zhiyuan broke out in a cold sweat. The pain in his body caused him to groan, and in less than a minute, he fainted. The bed bells in the ward rang loudly. “Someone, doctor, nurse!” Mrs. Ning screamed. On the surface, she looked panicked, but the corners of her mouth gradually rose.

Very soon, the nurse and doctor rushed over. The doctor quickly did a check-up and decisively said to the nurse, “Send him to emergency treatment immediately.”

Ning Zhiyuan was pushed out. The attending doctor frowned and looked at Mrs. Ning. “He was fine just now. What happened?” “I don’t know either. He was fine just now when we were chatting…” Mrs. Ning was sobbing. She covered her face and looked extremely sad.

The doctor ignored her and instructed one of the nurses who stayed behind, “Inform the patient’s daughter immediately. The patient’s condition is very critical this time.”

Two minutes later, Ning Shan’s phone rang in the main house of the Gu family. “Hello, is this Miss Ning Shan? Your father is suddenly in critical condition. Please come to the hospital immediately!”
