The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 350

“My mom has also been busy attending those prestigious family gatherings recently, and the matters with the studio have been basically settled,” said Rong Dai.

“Once we get through this period, we’ll be able to start working,” she added.

“Then you take good rest. I’m going to the hospital to see,” said Lu Nianzhi.

After chatting with her for a while, Lu Nianzhi left.

Rong Dai was filled with complex emotions, once again witnessing the evil in human nature.

Although she had seen such things countless times in her previous life, when it happened in this life, it was still just as cruel.

She could even imagine the despair Huo Mei Shu’s mother-in-law must have felt, just like she had felt upon learning the truth in her previous life.

The person she had cherished in her heart, her ray of moonlight and goodness, had decayed without her even realizing, becoming vicious!

As Rong Dai pondered these things, she didn’t feel right calling her little sister-in-law. She browsed Weibo on her phone for a while before starting to study.

Lu Nianzhi rushed to the hospital where Lu Zheng was staying.

Pushing open the door, she saw the bruises on Lu Zheng's face were still very noticeable. Her eyes stared woodenly at the ceiling.

Huo Mei Shu sat on the sofa, eyes fixed intently on Lu Zheng. She wiped tears from time to time.

“Mei Shu,” said Lu Nianzhi softly.

Huo Mei Shu snapped back to herself and got up to walk out of the room.

“Sister Nianzhi...” said Huo Mei Shu. Her eyes were red and swollen.

Lu Nianzhi took some tissues out of her bag and handed them to her.

“Don’t be too upset. The bad guys will definitely be punished,” said Lu Nianzhi.

“How is Auntie now?”

Dabbing her tears, Huo Mei Shu shook her head. “Her mind is greatly shocked and she’s not well.”

“Just now when uncle and them came, I didn’t let them in, afraid it would disturb her.”

“Now when she sees medical staff she panics badly. I’m the only one who can talk to her at all, but at most a sentence or two.”

Lu Nianzhi sighed softly and patted Huo Mei Shu gently on the back.

“You haven’t eaten yet, right? And didn’t get any proper rest last night either.”

“Go home, get washed up, change into clean clothes and eat something. I’ll stand watch here.”

“I won’t speak and disturb her. I’ll just stay here.”

Huo Mei Shu was indeed hungry and tired. Her clothes were stained with Lu Zheng’s blood and she felt very uncomfortable all over.

“But...” said Huo Mei Shu.

“We’re all family. Although I haven’t been in the country these past few years, you guys have been my relatives all this time. Can’t you trust me?” said Lu Nianzhi with a smile, stroking her hair.

“Sister Nianzhi, I didn’t mean it that way. I’m just worried if my mom loses control...” said Huo Mei Shu, hurriedly shaking her head.

“Little girl, do you think your Sister Nianzhi was fooling around all those years abroad?” interrupted Lu Nianzhi. “Hurry back and get some rest. Come relieve me this afternoon.”

Huo Mei Shu didn’t hesitate anymore and left the hospital.

After she’d gone, Lu Nianzhi entered the ward and tiptoed over to sit by Lu Zheng’s bed to look at her.

Seeing Lu Zheng now completely devoid of life, she couldn’t help but ache for her.

But she didn’t dare speak, afraid of disturbing Lu Zheng.

She sat there quietly for almost half an hour. Then Lu Nianzhi felt a sudden churning in her abdomen. The pain made her break out in a cold sweat.

She hurried to the bathroom and saw the crimson patch. She took some toilet paper to clean up first.

Coming out of the bathroom, she checked herself in the mirror and luckily her clothes weren’t stained.

“Auntie, I’m going downstairs to buy some sanitary pads. Just stay nicely in bed, don’t go anywhere okay?” said Lu Nianzhi, enduring the pain and coaxing Lu Zheng as if she were a child.
