The IV drip took about two hours, and Shen Qianshu fell asleep for about two hours. The head nurse was gentle, yet she was still awoken by it. Shen Qianshu rubbed her eyes, and the head nurse said, “Shen Qianshu, I’m so sorry. Was I too rough? The president told me to be gentle, I’m so sorry.”
“Not a problem, not a problem. I’m a light sleeper,” Shen Qianshu said. The head nurse took her temperature, and it had lowered slightly. Shen Qianshu no longer felt so warm and felt a little tired. However, she was too lazy to go home, so she fell asleep there.
The nurse outside asked the head nurse, “Who’s that woman? She looks familiar. What’s with her and the president? He’s acting all fearful as if he’s afraid of offending her. How mysterious she is.”
“Don’t be nosy,” The head nurse said. “People on this level are not small fry. Also, why is Shen Lin not discharged yet? She’s not even ill, but she insisted on staying here. The reporters keep coming here. It’s so annoying.”
“Who knows? I heard that she had fainted during the competition, and the news has been talking about how sick she was. But in actual fact, she’s perfectly fine.”
Shen Qianshu was feeling woozy. When she heard that, she felt slightly energized, and she scoffed. Shen Lin had indeed faked her illness. She had been using this trick from when she was fifteen until she was twenty-five. She never got tired of it. That day, when Shen Lin fainted, Shen Qianshu had already guessed that she was faking it.
What a coincidence that they were staying in the same hospital.
Enemies often crossed each other’s paths!
Forget it, let’s not think too much. She’ll leave tomorrow, so we won’t meet each other.
Shen Qianshu stayed overnight in the hospital. The next morning, Tong Hua made breakfast and packed his schoolbag. It was only when he was about to leave for school when he noticed that she was not around. He phoned Shen Qianshu, and Shen Qianshu lied. “Mommy has something on. Make your way to school safely.”
“Okay, Mommy. Will you pick me up from school later?”
“Sure.”
Tong Hua hung up feeling satisfied. The head nurse came over to measure Shen Qianshu’s temperature again, and it had already returned to the normal temperature. Shen Qianshu heaved a sigh of relief. The doctor gave her some prescriptions and told her to take her medications on time to prevent the fever from coming back due to low immunity levels that might cause more discomfort. Shen Qianshu thanked the doctor, and when she was going out to settle the bills, she was told that someone had already paid for her.
Coincidentally, Fang Xia was also at the payment counter. When the mother and daughter bumped into each other, Shen Qianshu froze. “Mom…”
Chen Qiuxiang said that Fang Xia went to look for her at Gubelin but did not see her. She almost forgot that. What could be the reason for Fang Xia to look for her? Other than Shen Lin’s matters, no matter what she said, Fang Xia would not believe her.
Fang Xia did not expect to bump into Shen Qianshu. Her face darkened, and she slapped her. Shen Qianshu could not react in time, and she got slapped on the face. Her gaze darkened, and Fang Xia was extremely mad. She sent another slap, but Shen Qianshu was prepared this time and grabbed onto her wrist.
Shen Lin rushed over hastily and grabbed onto Fang Xia, pretending to be fearful. “Mom, how could you hit Qianshu? Qianshu, my mom did not do it intentionally, don’t be mad.”
“Mom, I called you ‘mom’ because of the eighteen years of love and guidance, but that does not give you the right to hit me whenever you feel like it.” Shen Qianshu had a lot of strength and was very forceful. The strength she had after recovering gushed up, and she grabbed onto Fang Xia’s wrist tightly.
From a young age, Fang Xia had never dared to lay a finger on her.
For Qianshu, Fang Xia almost lost her life.
But gratitude and loathe would never be written off.
“What did you promise me? You said you would never expose the secret of Lin using your designs. You went back on your words and caused her to lose face in front of everyone. She almost killed herself. How did you have the heart to do so?”
