No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

"Yes, Yuanzhou and I are very close, but he's been too busy lately and rarely has time to spend with me. I... don't really want to bother him."

"Aunt Xia, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Song Qingran's gentle voice echoed throughout the hospital corridor, so loud that even passing nurses couldn't drown it out.

But her persistent appearances happened precisely when Jiang Hua was at her worst.

The nurse brought over the boiled brown sugar water, which Pei Zhan took and sat down beside her. "Drink the brown sugar water first, and then I'll take you to get something to eat later."

Jiang Hua reached out and knocked the brown sugar water out of his hand. The glass fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. "I don't drink this."

The nurse was startled by her sudden action. "Mr. Pei, I'll have someone clean up right away."

Pei Zhan: "Okay, please make another cup."

A little bit of the brown sugar water had spilled out, and some inevitably got on the back of Pei Zhan's hand, but his thick skin made him recover quickly. "What happened?"

Jiang Hua: "Go out and close the door."

The nurse spoke hesitantly, "Yes, Mrs. Pei."

Just as the nurse was about to close the door, Xia He happened to see the people in the break room. Seeing the broken things on the floor, she guessed that the sound came from there.

When Song Qingran saw the man inside, she was deeply hurt by the scene. She secretly watched him, and when someone looked at her, Song Qingran quickly lowered her head and hid slightly behind Xia He, looking like a frightened fledgling.

Xia He stopped the nurse, "Don't worry about it, I'll go in and take a look."

She approached and stepped forward. "You were fine last night, what happened today?"

When Jiang Hua saw the person who walked in, she looked at Pei Zhan and asked coldly, "Didn't you say there was no one else?"

"You're the one who brought them here!"

Upon hearing these words, Xia He's face immediately fell. "Jiang Hua! Is this the attitude you should have towards your elders? As an elder, I'm just showing you concern. It's only reasonable and considerate, yet you give me such a hard time."

"They have absolutely no manners, not even half as good as... Qingran."

"I really don't know what's so good about you that makes your husband give up his huge family business to come to the hospital to be with you and watch your mood."

"Be careful, one day you might play with fire and get burned, losing everything you have now."

These words completely touched Jiang Hua's sore spot. Jiang Hua disdained to compare herself with anyone, but if the other party was Song Qingran, it just so happened that the other party was actively courting death.

"you!"

Just as Jiang Hua was about to stand up, Pei Zhan grabbed her hand and held it tightly in his palm. "Mrs. Xia! Not just anyone is qualified to be compared to my wife."

"This is a private lounge. I hope you two will leave. If I hear such words again, I will be very sorry."

"Madam Xia, you may not be able to stay in the capital for long!"

Xia He was startled and looked at him with a slightly disappointed expression. She hadn't expected that he could spoil Jiang Hua to this extent.

Jiang Hua suddenly spoke sarcastically: "No wonder Huo Tingshan looks down on you, because you are just like the person next to you, no... you should be said to be cut from the same mold. You were born without any ability, and you have no ability at all... No wonder only you can be interested in Song Qingran!"

“Mrs. Xia, no! Mrs. Huo… Huo Tingshan’s other women are all far better than you. No wonder he doesn’t want to even look at you.”

Xia He's face contorted with rage, her eyes glaring at her so fiercely they seemed to see right through her. She roared, "Jiang Hua! How dare you!"

Pei Zhan: "Get out!"
