C13 Killed the Stepfather
She held her heart and stood outside the operation room anxiously, not daring to leave for even a second. Her body was trembling and her eyes were tightly shut, and at this moment, her mother's sobbing could not move her at all. She was completely focused on the door of the operation room.
After an unknown amount of time, the door suddenly opened! Before Meng Yi Lan could step forward, she saw her father being pushed out by the medical staff. She took off her hat and mask, and said with a regretful expression, "I'm sorry, we have tried our best."
These words were like a knife that pierced Meng Yi Lan's heart! She stood rooted to the spot in disbelief. Suddenly, she heard her mother's mournful wails. At that moment, her mind was blank, as if she had lost all ability to move.
She could not believe her eyes as she looked at her father's body that was covered in white cloth. Her tears suddenly gushed out like a dam that had burst, and she couldn't help but fall to her knees. She couldn't even cry if she wanted to, as if she had lost her voice and was in extreme pain!
Very quickly, Meng Yi Lan's mother rushed towards her like she had gone mad. With one hand, she fiercely grabbed her hair and kicked her to death. As she did so, she roared, "It's all your fault! Why did you sign it?! Why didn't you get the gift money earlier so your father could have the surgery earlier! It's all your fault! "
Meng Yi Lan lay on the ground in pain. She was so heartbroken that she had no strength to resist. The medical staff beside her quickly pulled her mother away. "Calm down!"
Meng Yi Lan's mother struggled desperately, cursing Meng Yi Lan, "I don't have a daughter like you! You're the one who killed your stepfather! Why are you so vicious! Your stepfather won't let you off even if he becomes a ghost! "
Meng Yilan's mother's words were like a magic spell that repeatedly echoed in her ears. She seemed to have fallen into a dark abyss, and the sounds in her surroundings became further and further away from her …
Only after a long period of time had passed did she finally recover from her thoughts and quicken her pace, wanting to go to the place where her father stayed to see him for the last time! However, just as he reached the door, he was pushed down to the ground by his mother!
"Do you still have the face to come over?! Do you still have the face to see your father?! If he had gotten the gift money earlier on, he wouldn't have died! "
His body started to tremble from the intense roar, and his dumbstruck eyes looked as if they were about to tear Meng Yi Lan apart!
Meng Yilan's lips trembled as she told her mother over and over again, "Mom, I want to see dad one last time. I beg you to let me in to meet him! "
"Go! "Hurry up and leave!"
No matter what Meng Yilan said, her mother chased her out of here emotionally. The staff couldn't persuade her otherwise, so they could only pull her away from this place while comforting her.
When Zuo Ze Yuan arrived at the hospital, he saw Meng Yilan squatting on the long corridor, sobbing nonstop. His eyes moved slightly and he walked directly to the doctor's office to understand the situation.
When he found out what had happened, his eyes were filled with pity for Meng Yilan.
He walked slowly to her side and said, "Come back with me."
Meng Yi Lan seemed to have not heard his voice, as she was immersed in her own painful emotions. Her eyes were red and swollen to the point that it was pitiful to look at.
Zuo Ze Yuan tried to pull her up, but Meng Yi Lan realized that he had arrived. She suddenly shook his hand and said to herself, "I want to see dad, I can't leave!"
"You will, but not now."
Now, the doctor also said that her mother was in an even more intense mood than this. It was impossible for her to see her father, so she had to force him to do something because she was worried that her mother would do something impulsive.
Thus, he could only say a lie out of goodwill, "You will meet her again in a few days. Today, let your mother calm down as well."
Hearing that, Meng Yi Lan seemed to have found the least bit of reason. She sobbed as she looked at Zuo Ze Yuan. Her eyes seemed to be asking, "Is it true?"
Zuo Ze Yuan nodded and extended his hand towards him: "Come with me first."
Meng Yi Lan was still a little unwilling, but Zuo Ze Yuan was also very patient. He stood in front of her without saying a word and waited for her to follow him.
After an unknown amount of time, when Meng Yi Lan's mood gradually calmed down, he opened his mouth again, "If you don't cheer up, then no one will take care of his aftermath."
These words were like a hammer that suddenly awakened Meng Yilan. However, when she thought of her father, the tears in her eyes couldn't help but flow down desperately.
She kept convincing herself in her heart, forcing herself to be a little bit more spirited. She would first follow Zuo Zeyuan back, and in two days, she would help her father deal with the aftermath …
Because she was immersed in grief, Meng Yi Lan didn't have any appetite to eat. From morning to night, she didn't close her eyes for the entire day.
Because as long as he closed his eyes, his mind would be filled with his father's face!
Her function was to force herself to open her eyes and keep convincing herself that she would occasionally drink a few drops of water.
After returning to Zuo Ze Yuan's house for almost two days, he didn't even see her eat a single mouthful of food. Even though Zuo Ze Yuan kindly placed the food in front of her, he still acted the same as before he left.
In just a short period of time, she had lost a lot of weight and was extremely haggard.
Seeing this, Zuo Ze Yuan could not help but think back to what Meng Yi Lan had experienced. His heart rose with pity and he could not help but force himself to remind her, "You should eat something! Tomorrow is your father's funeral! "
He was not a person who knew how to comfort others. Since he was young, Zuo Ze Yuan could count the number of times he had comforted others with a single finger. If it wasn't for the fact that he had some relationship with her, he wouldn't care too much about things like Meng Yi Lan.
However, her persuasion had no effect on Meng Yi Lan. Meng Yi Lan just looked at him indifferently, then fell into her thoughts.
Zuo Ze Yuan darkened his eyes and called for his auntie to bring another bowl of hot rice over. He personally brought it in front of Meng Yi Lan. "More or less, eat some."
Meng Yi Lan mechanically shook her head. She had no intention of eating it.
She couldn't go on like this. Her repeated refusal to eat angered Zuo Ze Yuan. He suddenly scooped up a spoonful of soup and placed it next to Meng Yi Lan's mouth, trying to force her to eat it!
Meng Yi Lan suddenly frowned and used her hand to remove the spoon. In that instant, the food on the spoon sprinkled onto the clean ground.
The aunt standing not far away saw that the atmosphere between the two was weird, but she didn't dare to go up and easily persuade them. After all, she had worked here for a few years, so she had a good understanding of who Zuo Ze Yuan was.
So Auntie backed out of the hall.
When Zuo Zeyuan saw the spilled rice, his cheeks tensed up. "You don't want to eat?"
This rhetorical question was filled with anger. Meng Yi Lan was frightened, but she didn't like being forced by others. She stubbornly stared at Zuo Ze Yuan and said word by word, "Mr. Zuo, no need to trouble you. I won't eat."
After saying that, he turned his head to the side. Seeing that she was so depressed that she was about to lose her sense of self, and seeing the despair in her eyes, Zuo Ze Yuan couldn't help but think back to his own self!
