After a long time, Shen Anran slowly spoke, her voice as calm as water: "Thank you for telling me this."

After she finished speaking, she stood up and prepared to leave, but Xiaolan's mother stopped her with a hint of urgency in her voice:

"She was buried in Yushan Cemetery. I was afraid someone might find her there, so her name wasn't engraved on the tombstone. But there's a gardenia tree next to her tombstone. It was her favorite flower when she was alive. Do you...want to go and see it?"

Shen Anran did not respond immediately. She just looked back at Xiaolan's mother, then turned and left the ward.

The door closed gently, and Xiaolan's mother's tears fell like beads from a broken string.

She murmured softly, her voice filled with endless emotion and relief: "Madam, your child has really grown up."

Fu Ying saw Shen Anran coming out of the ward and quickly approached her, whispering, "Are you okay?"

Shen Anran was slightly stunned and looked at Fu Ying in confusion, "Huh? Why do you ask that? Do I look bad?"

Even though the story told by Xiaolan's mother was a bit sad, she didn't feel too much and didn't have any thoughts in her heart.

Fu Ying looked at Shen Anran carefully and said, "I just feel that you seem unhappy and worried."

Shen Anran replied seriously: "Well, I was wondering when to treat you to dinner."

When Fu Ying heard this, her eyes lit up immediately. "How about tomorrow? I really want to eat hot pot. Just the two of us, what do you think?"

Shen Anran looked at Fu Ying's expectant eyes and nodded, "Okay."

Hearing the conversation between Shen Anran and Fu Ying, Yan Wen and Zhou Jingyan couldn't help but exchange glances, with a cold light flashing in their eyes.

It's as if he's asking the other person, "Why don't you take care of your wife?"

However, they never expressed their dissatisfaction, after all, both of them were dominated by their wives.

Shen Anran turned to look at Xiaolan with gentle eyes.

"You can go in and stay with your mother. I will arrange the hospital expenses. Also, Yingying has contacted doctors abroad. If there is a more suitable treatment plan, I wonder if you would be willing to try it?"

Xiaolan's eyes were red and full of gratitude.

She choked up and said, "Thank you. I will definitely work harder to make money in the future."

Shen Anran patted Xiaolan's shoulder and comforted her: "It's okay, Xiaolan, take your time, everything will be fine. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your aunt, don't worry too much about other things."

Xiao Lan felt that she was so lucky to have met such a good person like Shen Anran in her despair.

Although she and Liu Yiyi were friends, she had never heard the name Shen Anran from Liu Yiyi.

She once had a slight doubt, suspecting that Shen Anran's identity as Liu Yiyi's friend was fake.

After all, if Liu Yiyi really knew someone like Shen Anran, why didn't she ask Shen Anran for help when she was most helpless?

She knew Liu Yiyi's family background. Her life was not satisfactory. Her father died early and her mother was cold and indifferent to her, often beating and scolding her.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind.

Thinking of where Liu Yiyi went after leaving Huangyu Mansion, it seemed to be the Shen Group. Could it be that Shen Anran helped her?

But she also died in the Shen Group...

Xiao Lan took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the strange emotions in her heart.

She realized that her thoughts just now were really wrong. After all, Shen Anran had helped her a lot, but she was doubting him.

This thought made her feel ashamed, as if she was betraying Shen Anran's kindness.

She lowered her head, a hint of shame on her face, and her voice was low.

Said to Shen Anran: "Miss Shen, I'll go in first."

Shen Anran smiled and nodded, "Go and take good care of your mother."

Xiao Lan responded, turned around and walked quickly into the ward.

Shen Anran then confirmed several things about Xiaolan's mother's treatment with her father.

Including details such as follow-up treatment plan and medical expenses payment.

After everything was arranged, Shen Anran and the other three left the hospital.

As the sky grew darker, the setting sun lengthened the shadows of the four people.

Fu Ying looked at the slowly setting sun, feeling a little confused. There were less than two days left.

After returning to the Shen family, Shen Anran washed up and was about to lie down to rest. At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"An An, are you asleep?" The voice was gentle but polite.

Shen Anran stood up and opened the door. Standing outside was Fu Ying.

Fu Ying had a smile on her face and asked, "Are you welcome to come in and sit down?"

"Come in." Shen Anran moved sideways and made way.

The two of them sat on the soft sofa, and the heating in the house made them feel comfortable.

Shen Anran was only wearing a pair of furry pajamas, looking playful and cute.

Fu Ying sat quietly opposite her, her eyes filled with some difficult-to-interpret emotions.

Shen Anran sensed that something was wrong with Fu Ying and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Fu Ying slowly retracted her seemingly aggressive gaze and smiled faintly, "Nothing, I just want to talk to you."

"I remember you always had a lot to say, but recently I've noticed you've become quiet and often just sit there in a daze."

Fu Ying sighed, a barely perceptible sadness in her eyes, "Maybe I'm a little reluctant to leave."

Shen Anran frowned and asked in confusion: "Reluctant? What does that mean?"

Fu Ying adjusted her sitting posture and tried to make her tone sound more relaxed.

"I've been in S City for so long and plan to go back the day after tomorrow. My mother called me many times, saying that if I didn't go back, she would come and arrest me herself."

There was a joking tone in his words, but deep down he was reluctant to let go.

Her mother called her more than once, urging her so many times that she couldn't even count them.

After all, the Fu family and the Shen family have been friends for many years. If the Shen family knew that Fu Ying had such thoughts in her heart, they would probably sever ties with her without hesitation and might even hold a grudge against her.

If Yan Wen hadn't been here, Fu Ying's mother would have sent someone to forcibly take her home.

"Say hello to my aunt for me." Shen Anran said with a smile.

"Well, I'll take your words to her."

Shen Anran was silent for a moment, as if considering her next words, and then she asked softly, "Yingying, are you and Yan Wen really happy together?"

Fu Ying shrugged slightly, speaking in a calm tone:

"There's no such thing as happiness or unhappiness. In the adult world, there's only interest. He can give me what I want. What's more, he's rich and handsome, and he's not fickle. So, I'm not at a disadvantage being with him."

Shen Anran looked at Fu Ying seriously. "I can see that Yan Wen likes you very much. I hope you two can be fine. If you are unhappy about anything, you can call me at any time. If he bullies you, you must tell me and I will rush over to support you immediately."
