It was the third floor, and if she had been careful, she should have been able to get out. Now only if she got out would she have a chance to survive. How could she, a top student from a prestigious university, go to jail?
If she goes to jail, her second half of life will be over. She just needs to find her mother to bail her out, and then go abroad and start a new life there.
After Zhong Yuting made her plan, she quickly changed out of her hospital gown, locked the door and opened the window, tore the bed sheet into a rope, put the bottle of heart pills in her pocket, and slid down the rope made of bed sheet.
After landing, he looked around and ran towards the small door.
The policewoman went to get a pot of water, pushed the door of the ward but it didn't open, frowned, looked inside through the glass, and saw that the window was open and a piece of cloth rope was exposed.
Realizing something, she hurriedly called for someone to open the door, ran to the window and looked down, but there was no one there. It only took her ten minutes to get some water and come back.
She must not have gotten far. The policewoman hurriedly shouted, "Go find someone! Zhong Yuting ran away."
Zhong Yuting hailed a taxi on the side of the road. When she arrived at the mental hospital where her mother was staying, she got out of the car and was about to leave when the driver hurriedly stopped her and said, "Miss, you haven't paid yet."
Money? Oh, she didn't give any money.
"Your car stinks. I'm lucky I didn't ask you for compensation. Why should I give you money? Get out of here."
The driver looked at her in confusion when he heard this, and a surge of anger rose in his heart: "No, you look very pretty, why are you talking so irrationally? I'm a taxi driver."
"You should pay for the ride, right? How can you be so shameless? I rely on this business to make a living. If you don't pay, don't even think about leaving today."
Zhong Yuting was in a hurry to find her mother, so she didn't have time to waste with him. She took off an earring and handed it to him: "This is a diamond earring, enough to cover the fare for this trip."
The driver looked at the earrings in his palm and looked at her with some suspicion: "Are they real diamonds? They can't be some kind of moissanite to fool people, right? You are a little girl and you don't have any money on you."
"No, I have a heart disease. If you pull me again, I'll have a seizure and die, and it'll be your fault."
"……what?"
The driver watched her pull out a bottle of medicine. After reading the words on it, his expression suddenly darkened. "For just a few dozen dollars in fare, you're really quite resourceful, girl."
"You've made up a heart attack story. I don't think you look like you had one. So give me your other earring. That'll cover the cost of the bus fare."
"can."
Zhong Yuting stuffed the two earrings into his hands, turned around and ran towards the entrance of the mental hospital. She was so tired that she was out of breath and her heart ached, but she didn't care. She didn't have much time left and had to find her mother as soon as possible.
Who knows when the police will come? We have to do it faster, faster.
The security guard stopped the man and asked: "Who are you looking for?"
"Oh, I'm here to see a patient, Ms. Chen Shulan from Ward 6. I have something to ask her, please let me in."
"You look familiar, have you been here before?"
"...Really? I used to come here often. They say people with mental illness need more care and companionship from their families. I would come over during my university holidays. So, can I come in now?"
The security guard nodded: "Okay, you can go in."
Zhong Yuting trotted in, deliberately avoiding the nurses along the way, and came to the door of Ward No. 6. She slowly opened the handle, pushed the door open, went in, and locked it.
Looking around the room, I saw a familiar figure standing in front of the French window. I ran over and hugged her, sobbing, "Mom, I finally found you. Are you okay?"
Chen Shulan froze when she heard the voice and slowly turned around to look at her: "Yuting, why are you here? Why do you look so grim? Did something happen?"
"Mom, why are you hospitalized here again? Didn't you say you were recovering well before? Why are you here suddenly?"
"...It's nothing. Depression is like this. It will come and go. Just study hard and your parents will take care of the adult matters."
When Zhong Yuting heard this, she threw herself into her arms and cried heartbreakingly: "Mom, Dad doesn't want me anymore. I don't have a home anymore. I might even go to jail."
Chen Shulan was puzzled: "What do you mean? You're doing well in school. What do you mean your father doesn't want you anymore? How could he possibly want you? And what does going to jail mean?"
"Mom, didn't you watch the news? Our family is in turmoil. Dad actually held a press conference, saying I'm not his biological daughter. He even mentioned a paternity test report."
"I did do something wrong. I poisoned Chen Wan, but she's not dead. She can be cured with just a little money. Why are you chasing me?"
After hearing the whole story, Chen Shulan's breathing quickened. "The reason your father abandoned you wasn't because of the poisoning. It was because he had an illegitimate child outside."
"I got depressed because I found out about this. In order not to hurt you, we had already agreed to keep this a secret and not let the illegitimate child into our family."
"But how could you be so stupid as to poison your classmate and give that illegitimate child the opportunity to enter your home? You were abandoned by your father."
When Zhong Yuting heard about the illegitimate child, the mysteries that troubled her were instantly solved. She murmured, "So that's how it is. No wonder Uncle Jin didn't come this time."
"My father gave up on me a long time ago. Ha, how ridiculous! How come I didn't notice it at all?"
Chen Shulan sighed. "I thought that with the agreement I made with your father, you would be able to live comfortably until graduation. As long as you took control of the company after graduation, your life would be good."
"But you're such a loser after all. Just to be competitive, you actually poisoned your classmate. Now that your father has such evidence, how could he possibly let you go?"
"This time, he's saying you're not his biological daughter, which means he's preparing for his illegitimate child to enter the family. If I'm not mistaken, the illegitimate child's age has also been changed."
Zhong Yuting felt weak all over. "Mom, what should we do now? If this illegitimate child is admitted as a mistaken child, then I will never be seen in public again."
Chen Shulan gently patted her daughter's back and whispered, "One wrong step leads to another. It's time for you to learn your lesson. You'll just have to endure this matter until the news of your poisoning has died down."
"Mom will help you. You are your father's child, and that illegitimate child's birth time is wrong. Even if it is changed, it is impossible to leave no trace."
"From now on, you must listen to your mother. Otherwise, all that awaits you is the bastard's revenge. He will let you die in prison. After all, only the dead will not steal from him."
