"How is it possible? She was so seriously injured, how could she wake up overnight?" Wu Yuanduan's voice was filled with disbelief.
Everyone's gazes turned to her in unison.
Mu Jiuchen looked at her sternly, "Judging by your expression, you don't really wish for my grandmother to wake up?"
"Heh heh... How could that be? Without her to bicker with me, I'm not used to it. Of course, I hope she wakes up soon." Wu Yuan's gaze flickered, not daring to meet anyone's eyes.
"Hmph!" Mu Jiuchen snorted coldly, "You'd better maintain that thought."
Wu Yuan clenched her fists slightly, wondering if the old lady had seen it was her who pushed her.
Mu Jiuchen looked at He Mingrun and said, "You've been guarding all night, you must be tired."
He Mingrun shook his head slightly, "Not tired."
"Your face is so haggard, and you're not tired? You and Miss Meng should go to the lounge and have breakfast. Leave this to me."
He Mingrun nodded, "Okay!"
With Xiao Jiu here, he was at ease.
He Mingrun embraced Meng Yuan and walked towards the lounge.
As he passed Yang Minjing, He Mingrun didn't even spare her a glance.
Yang Minjing felt incredibly awkward, like a joke, a clown performing for others.
She gritted her teeth, staring at their retreating backs. He Mingrun's utter disregard for her completely enraged her. She vowed in her heart, if I can't have you, then no one else will.
Inside the lounge, as soon as they entered, He Mingrun closed the door.
Meng Yuan placed the thermal flask on the table.
Suddenly, a strong force from behind enveloped her entire waist with a pair of powerful arms, and she was pulled into a familiar embrace. Before she could speak, her lips were met with a scorching heat.
Meng Yuan's heart pounded fiercely. She really couldn't handle He Mingrun when he became so passionate.
After the kiss, He Mingrun nuzzled her neck for a while before saying, "Yuan Yuan, I missed you so much!" he whispered into her ear.
Meng Yuan's face flushed, her heart racing. Blushing, she said, "Haven't we only been apart for one night?"
He Mingrun chuckled softly and asked, "Yuan Yuan, did you sleep well last night when I wasn't here?"
Meng Yuan spoke the truth, "He Mingrun, you are too terrifying."
He Mingrun slowly released her, looking at her with confusion, a hint of grievance in his voice, "What's so terrifying about me?"
Meng Yuan, seeing his wronged expression, struggled to suppress a smile. "Your charm is too great. In just a few days, I've fallen for you. I can't sleep without you holding me. I suffered from insomnia last night. Don't you think that's terrifying?"
He Mingrun was startled, "Yuan Yuan, you scared me! I thought you had done something to me?"
Looking at her rosy lips, he couldn't resist kissing her again.
Meng Yuan struggled slightly, "Alright, hurry and eat. Auntie made good food for you. It will get cold soon."
He Mingrun grinned mischievously, his eyes burning as he looked at her, "You're the most delicious!"
Meng Yuan: "..."
In the intensive care unit, although the old lady had woken up, her consciousness was still scattered, and her gaze was unfocused.
After Jiang Nuan gave her two pills, her consciousness cleared up significantly.
Han Yimo conducted a thorough examination of the old lady's body. This time, it was a great challenge for her.
After examining the old lady's body, Jiang Nuan looked at everyone and said, "The old lady's vital signs are very stable. Her life has been saved. What follows is a very long recovery period. She is elderly, so her recovery will be very slow. With supportive drug treatment, she can be discharged in a month, but the old lady cannot speak yet."
As soon as Jiang Nuan finished speaking, the old lady pointed at Wu Yuan.
Wu Yuan was stunned, why was she pointing at her?
Jiang Nuan looked at her and said, "Old lady, is there something you want to say?"
The old lady blinked.
Jiang Nuan looked at the doctor beside her and said, "Go get a writing pad for the old lady."
The doctor quickly went out and returned with an electronic writing pad.
"Mom, what are you doing? If you're not feeling well, you should rest. Why are you bothering yourself?" Wu Yuan walked over and snatched the writing pad from the doctor's hand.
Mu Jiuchen snatched it back from her, "My grandmother likes to bother herself. You, go aside."
"Mu Jiuchen, this is our He family's business, and you have no right to interfere?" Wu Yuan became agitated. She looked at Jiang Nuan with new respect. Other doctors had said the old lady was beyond saving, yet she had saved her.
Mu Jiuchen's tone was cold as he looked at her without looking at her, "I'm not interested in your He family's affairs. I only care about my grandmother."
Mu Jiuchen opened the electronic writing pad. Seeing that his grandmother had pointed at Wu Yuan earlier, he said, "Grandmother, I'll type out words. You point at them one by one. If it's the word you need, blink your eyes." The old lady blinked.
Mu Jiuchen typed out the words "Wu Yuan," and the old lady blinked.
Subsequently, Mu Jiuchen seemed to have guessed his grandmother's intention.
He typed out the word "push," and the old lady blinked.
After he typed the last character, the old lady's gaze relaxed slightly, and she stared intently at Wu Yuan.
Wu Yuan's eyes widened in shock; she actually knew.
Mu Jiuchen held the writing pad and read the entire sentence word by word: "Wu Yuan pushed me!"
"I didn't! She's old and confused. How could I have pushed her?" Wu Yuan argued defensively, never dreaming that the old lady would be so clear-headed.
He Wenxun's face was pale, his expression pained, "You were still in the garden when I left."
"That still doesn't prove it was me who pushed her. Old lady and I have never gotten along. It's not impossible for her to kick me when I'm down at this moment." Wu Yuan's face was pale, but she remained calm.
Mu Jiuchen threw out a medical report, "My grandmother was injured so severely because she was pushed. The person who pushed her took advantage of the fact that there were no surveillance cameras in the garden, so it would be impossible to find any evidence."
Wu Yuan chuckled, feeling emboldened, "So, even if you suspect me, you still need to provide evidence!"
Mu Jiuchen's long eyes turned dark and terrifying, "Although I don't have evidence to prove you pushed her, I will not let you stay in the He family to harm my grandmother any longer."
"Do you know why I've never called you Auntie all these years?" Mu Jiuchen asked meaningfully.
Wu Yuan sneered, "Your Mu family is the foremost aristocratic family, so of course, you look down on our He family."
This was Wu Yuan's belief.
"You're mistaken. It's because you are not my Auntie at all! You are not the one who gave birth to He Mingrun."
Everyone: "..."
Wu Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and she retorted furiously, "Mu Jiuchen, what kind of nonsense are you talking about?"
"Hmph! I've met the real Auntie, who looks exactly like you. That woman was gentle and kind, and her voice was also gentle, unlike you, with your face full of bitterness and spite."
After Mu Jiuchen finished speaking, he looked at his grandmother, "Grandmother, if you want to know what happened, you must survive."
He feared that his grandmother would lose the will to live.
The old lady was greatly shocked, then blinked her eyes.
Jiang Nuan looked at the tall figure beside her and had to admit, he understood the old lady very well.
At this moment, Wu Yuan suddenly lunged at Mu Jiuchen like a madwoman to hit him.
