Chapter 142 - 142 Just in Time
142 Just in Time
Su Yuan let her mother eat first and found a set of her old clothes from her luggage to change into. After all, she was not the daughter of a rich family, so she really could not get used to wearing this kind of dress. It was too restrictive. After changing her clothes, she felt that she could finally breathe freely. This dress was definitely expensive, so she folded it carefully and prepared to return it to Mo Ting.
At this moment, the nurse who had been chatting with her mother came over. “Miss Su.”
The nurse called out to Su Yuan, then glanced at the door, signaling for her to leave.
Su Yuan said a few words to her mother and then followed the nurse out of the ward.
Outside, the Vice Director and a few unfamiliar doctors were waiting for her. “Miss Su.”
“There’s something I need to discuss with you,” said the Vice Director of the hospital as he came up to her.
After that, they sat in the resting area outside the ward. “Here’s what happened. Yesterday, the Bai family’s old Madam, Zhang Huilan, contacted me through various channels, asking me to come to the nursing home to see Madam Su. But today, she had come to him on her own and was now waiting outside the sanatorium. Do you see it? If you don’t want to see them, we’ll just ignore them or get the security guards to drive them away.”
The Vice Director had been observing Su Yuan’s expression as he spoke. Before he told Su Yuan, he had already reported to the big boss, and the answer was, “It’s up to Miss Su to decide.”
Su Yuan did not find it strange that Zhang Huilan wanted to visit her mother. After all, they were not the ones in the wrong, and they did not need to hide. “Let them in.”
Back in the ward, Su Qiumeng had not had her dinner yet. To be exact, she had not eaten since Su Yuan left.
“Little Yuan, what’s wrong?” Su Qiumeng put down her chopsticks and looked at her daughter worriedly.
Su Yuan sat by the bed and held her mother’s hand. Probably because of her body condition, her mother’s hand was a little colder than normal people’s. She wrapped her mother’s hand in her own and said calmly, “The Bai family is here.”
Su Qiumeng thought that the doctor had kept her in the dark and told her that her condition had worsened. She did not expect the Bai family to be here!
Su Qiumeng’s usual gentle expression was replaced by an angry one, “You’re just in time. I have something to ask them!”
…
Outside the Sanatorium.
A black BMW business car stopped by the roadside.
In the car, Zhang Huilan leaned on her walking stick and closed her eyes to rest. Fu Xinlian and Bai Yurou sat in the back. Fu Xinlian’s expression was haggard and her eyes were dark. Bai Yurou, on the other hand, was dressed exquisitely. She was even wearing the dress she was wearing for the ceremony. Her makeup was exquisite and she looked full of energy. It was a stark contrast to Fu Xinlian who was beside her.
After alighting from the car, Zhang Huilan kept reminding Fu Xinlian and Bai Yurou, “The purpose of us coming here is to get on good terms with Su Yuan. Su Yuan is very important to the Bai family now! After you go in, mind your words. Su Yuan doesn’t have a good temper. Also, when you apologize, you must be sincere. As long as Su Yuan agrees to hold a press conference for the Bai family, I promise you that the position of the Bai family’s matriarch will always be yours.”
At this moment, the bodyguard suddenly asked respectfully, “Old Madam, the sanatorium has sent someone over.”

As long as Su Yuan agrees to hold a press conference for the Bai family, I promise you that the position of the Bai family’s matriarch will always be yours. When Yurou enters the entertainment industry, the Bai family will do everything they can to make her famous!”
Fu Xinlian lowered her head and listened, so no one could see her expression.
The group of them went upstairs and arrived at the door of Su Qiumeng’s ward. The Vice Director was already waiting for them. “Old Madam.”
Zhang Huilan stepped forward and said with a smile, “Thank you for your trouble.”
The Vice Director made a gesture of invitation, but he did not leave. Zhang Huilan knocked on the door.
“Enter.” A cold female voice was heard from the ward.
Zhang Huilan clenched her walking stick tightly, then pushed the door open and entered the ward. “Little Yuan, Qiumeng.”
Su Yuan was scooping soup for her mother when she suddenly heard such an affectionate call. Her hands could not help but tremble and her stomach started to churn.
Su Qiumeng raised her head and looked at the door. Zhang Huilan and the other two entered the ward one after another.
Zhang Huilan’s expression was still okay, but a little unnatural. However, Fu Xinlian and Bai Yurou’s expressions were not that good.
Surprise, disbelief, unwillingness, anger, and jealousy. All the emotions were clearly displayed on his face. His facial features were a little distorted. Just looking at it made him lose his appetite.
Su Qiumeng retracted her gaze and took the bowl of ginseng chicken soup from her daughter. She took a sip and said, “Qiumeng, we heard you were sick, so we came to see you.” Zhang Huilan made her opening remarks, then turned around to glare at Bai Yurou.
Bai Yurou finally recovered from the shock of seeing Su Qiumeng in such a luxurious Ward. She walked over and handed the fruit basket to Su Yuan, “Aunt Qiumeng, sister, this is a small token of our appreciation, I hope you won’t mind.”
