Chapter 461: 461: Choosing Between the Mistress and Son
Compared to its past popularity, Lan’s Hospital is now drearily quiet and desolate.
Not only did nobody come to the hospital for treatment today, but many of the previously admitted patients have also moved to other hospitals due to recent continuous scandals at this hospital.
The hospital has suddenly become empty.
In the opulent VIP ward, Wen Bilan stands in front of a mirror, looking at her aged appearance, sagging skin, a lifeless demeanor as if her soul is gone, she can’t even take care of her daughter now.
Lan Yuyi’s condition isn’t much better, but seeing her mother’s dispirited appearance makes her even more upset: “Mom, can you stop looking in the mirror? You’ve been doing it all day!”
Wen Bilan’s voice has become raspy and unpleasant: “Your father’s mistress is about your age.”
“So?”
“I am old and faded, and cannot compete with a young woman. I can’t keep your father’s heart. What if he really wants to divorce me?”
“He wouldn’t dare! After making such a huge scandal, he has already been called back home and scolded by my grandfather. If he dares to divorce you and marry his mistress, he’ll have no standing in the family anymore!”
Wen Bilan suddenly starts crying: “But even if he doesn’t divorce me, his heart isn’t with me anymore, it’s been taken away by that young whore! She used to be by his side all the time, I saw it many times, but I never thought that they’ve been sleeping together!”
Hearing her mother crying, Lan Yuyi is extremely annoyed.
Her face turns gloomy: “She’s my classmate. I didn’t expect her to seduce my father! She looks so ordinary; I don’t know what my father saw in her!”
“She’s young. Isn’t that what men like? And she’s given him a son. Yuyi, what should we do now? Your father even said he wants to give the hospital to that bastard!”
“We absolutely can’t let that bastard get the hospital!”
Lan Yuyi’s eyes are fierce: “That bastard and that bitch won’t get a penny, whatever they get, I will make them vomit it out!”
“But how can we make them vomit it out, when your father is so much on their side now?”
“We can ask the Lu family for help, solving this is easy. The critical issue is that we need to have my father handle this scandal and reassure my grandfather. We can’t let the hospital fall into the hands of my second and third uncles!”
“But your father seems to have gone to see that mistress again.”
“What? During such a critical period, he actually went to accompany his mistress?!”
Lan Yuyi, almost bursting with anger, immediately calls Lan Ruikang.
The phone is answered only after the third ring.
“Yuyi, what’s going on?”
“Why haven’t you returned to the hospital yet? Dad, what is going on now?”
“I have something tonight and won’t be coming back.”
“No, you must come back! Do you think the situation isn’t chaotic enough? You must be with your mistress?”
Lan Ruikang is silent for a moment, then whispers, “Both of them, mother and son, were harassed and insulted today and were greatly frightened. I have to stay with them to prevent any accidents.”
“What kind of accident could they have?!”
Lan Yuyi’s voice sharpens, losing all semblance of her usual gentle nature: “I was also greatly shocked today, why didn’t you come back to be with us? I am pregnant, aren’t you afraid something will happen to me?”
“Don’t you have your mother with you, as well as Madam Lu who takes care of you twenty-four hours a day, and so many bodyguards, and Lu Lingche?”
“But You only has me, she doesn’t have anyone else. Be understanding, Yuyi, haven’t you always been understanding? I will only stay with them for one night.”
“Besides, this thing is my fault to begin with, You is innocent. It’s my fault that she got attacked and insulted.”
“She’s a good girl, top-notch in both her studies and character. Originally she was at a disadvantage being with me, and it was I who insisted that she keep the baby. If not for me, she should have a great future. It’s my fault.”
“So I want to make up for her a bit. Don’t call me again tonight. Your brother is sleeping, and a phone call might wake him up and scare him, which wouldn’t be good.”
