"For over three years we were together, and besides spending my money, he never did anything to make me happy!"
"He never proposed to me, never prepared any surprises, and never intended to be with me forever. How am I supposed to find psychological balance?"
But what did any of this have to do with Jiang Nan Fang?
If you've failed as a person and realized it, you should strive to change yourself.
This is not a reason to turn a friend into an enemy.
"These are all your own problems," Jiang Nan Fang said, her heart unmoved by the outpouring.
"It's you who is psychologically twisted, seeing hypocrisy in everyone. It's you who failed to cut off unhealthy relationships in time, it has nothing to do with me."
"Tang Xue Ying, none of this can be an excuse for you to harm others."
Tang Xue Ying nodded in agreement.
"Yes. These are indeed my own problems, I know. That's why I didn't want to continue like this anymore. I want to separate from you."
"I didn't want to live my life hidden in your shadow, constantly trying to guess your thoughts, which is why I did what I did."
"Although I did a lot, I was ultimately not as lucky as you. I have to admit, I am not as good as you, Jiang Nan Fang. I lost completely."
"But I don't regret it. If time could turn back and I could choose again, I would still do the same."
"I hate you, Jiang Nan Fang. I will never, ever be true friends with you."
With this, the truth was finally revealed, and there was nothing more to say.
However, Ah Zhong still had a doubt.
"When we were at the hospital, it was us, the forensic doctor, and Director Gao who all witnessed her breath cease. Even if you could deceive us, you couldn't deceive them..."
Tang Xue Ying sneered and turned her head, glancing at Gong Bei Bei, who had remained silent beside her.
"This matter, she arranged it all. Let her explain it to you."
"..." Gong Bei Bei's face immediately turned green.
Zhan Bei Jue's accusatory gaze fell upon her. Even though she didn't want to speak, she had no choice.
"Ever since Ah Jue broke off our engagement, I always thought it was Miss Jiang who was behind it, so..."
"That night, I had someone follow Ah Zhong. I discovered he went to a village in the suburbs to discuss clues with someone. Thinking it was leverage against Miss Jiang, I, I..."
Ah Zhong finished her sentence.
"You had someone knock me out, dump me at a club, arrange for a woman to cling to me, and then you found Tang Xue Ying?"
Gong Bei Bei's voice trembled with fear.
"I really didn't mean to! Ah Jue, please, believe me! I really didn't know Tang Xue Ying had so many secrets back then. I didn't intend to escalate things this much!"
Zhan Bei Jue looked at her coldly.
"Don't rush to explain to me yet, continue."
"...The rest was arranged by Huo Dong Ning! I was just listening to her. You ask her to talk!"
"..." Huo Dong Ning's hair suddenly stood on end again, out of fear.
Zhan Bei Jue said impatiently, "Gong Bei Bei, you show no willingness to cooperate, which makes it very difficult for me to believe you."
"..." Gong Bei Bei stammered and could only continue.
"Later, later, after we got acquainted, we discovered we all had issues with Miss Jiang, so we decided to..."
"Tang Xue Ying has a twin sister. After her divorce, she was taken to another province by her father. Later, she got into a car accident and became a vegetative state."
"Huo Dong Ning gave her father a sum of money and brought Tang Xue Fei over, arranging for her to be admitted to the hospital. The procedures were all handled by Tang Yuan Shan."
It had to be said, the combined schemes of these three women were comparable to a bottle of monkshood.
They had even managed to fool the police and Zhan Bei Jue. They were outrageously bold!
With this, all confessions were made. The rest would be handed over to the law.
Ah Zhong called the police, and soon, Tang Xue Ying was wearing silver bracelets.
Gong Bei Bei and Huo Dong Ning thought they could escape unscathed.
But Zhan Bei Jue had no contractual integrity.
"Tang Xue Ying is being interrogated, and the two of you will inevitably be implicated sooner or later. Instead of waiting to be caught, it's better to get a lighter sentence by confessing."
And so, the three of them were taken away together.
Jiang Nan Fang and Zhan Bei Jue returned to the hospital, and the two children had already woken up.
Seeing their mother return, they quickly sat up and hugged Jiang Nan Fang.
Jiang Nan Fang lovingly stroked her children's heads, asking if they felt uncomfortable anywhere.
"It's all my fault. I didn't notice you were unwell sooner. But it won't happen again."
"Mommy will stay with you forever from now on and won't let anything happen to you again."
Seeing her father and mother looking solemn, Jing Tian asked.
"Mommy, did my brother and I have a very serious illness, are we dying?"
Jiang Nan Fang said, "How could that be?"
"There is no illness in this world that cannot be defeated. Moreover, with the money Mommy has earned, I will definitely use the best resources in the world to treat you. Don't overthink it."
After finally coaxing the two children to sleep,
Without the appetite to eat, Jiang Nan Fang and Zhan Bei Jue went to Director Gao's office again.
Director Gao informed them that he had already drawn blood from the children and performed matching tests.
Next, their information would be sent to medical databases worldwide, hoping to match them with a suitable heart for transplantation before their condition worsened.
"Is the surgery risk high? Are there any sequelae after the transplant?"
Director Gao said, "Theoretically speaking, as long as there are no rejection reactions, there will be no problems if the transplant is successful."
"But nothing is absolute. It also depends on the individual's physical condition. I cannot guarantee it 100%, and you should be prepared for the worst."
Hearing him say this, Jiang Nan Fang felt as if the sky was about to collapse.
"Can relatives do the matching? I don't want to wait for a vague donation. I want to do the matching, I am willing to transplant my heart to my child!"
Director Gao advised her, "Miss Jiang, please be more rational."
"There is only one heart. No matter how much you love your children, you cannot save both at the same time."
"Furthermore, if you give your heart to them, how much psychological pressure will the children bear to live in this world alone?"
"Don't think like that unless it's absolutely necessary. Medical technology is advanced now, and there will always be hope."
Despite what he said, Jiang Nan Fang's heart felt like it was carrying a heavy stone, making it difficult to breathe.
As she left Director Gao's office, she wanted to return to the ward to be alone.
Zhan Bei Jue suddenly called out to her, "Wait a moment."
Jiang Nan Fang guessed he wanted to share his thoughts on Tang Xue Ying's matter, perhaps even apologize.
But she didn't want to hear it, feeling that an apology was meaningless.
She turned back expressionlessly, "You don't need to apologize to me, it's unnecessary."
"From the moment we decided to separate the children, we no longer had any relationship. I decided to have the children alone back then, their life or death had nothing to do with you."
"Go back and attend to your business. From now on, you'll walk your bright road, and I'll walk my single-plank bridge. Neither of us will interfere with the other."
Zhan Bei Jue knew his sins were deep.
It was impossible for her to forgive him with just a few apologies.
Moreover, he was not good at saying pleasant words.
So, after thinking about it, he suppressed all his words.
"I'll have Ah Zhong stay to accompany you. If you need anything, ask him."
