Chapter 380: Save Yourself first
"Did I not ask you to go back home as soon as everything was settled?" Meng Yunhan did not want Han Ziyan to trouble herself too much and could not help but say a few words when she saw her diligently waiting on Han Yichen.
Han Ziyan lowered her head guiltily. She did not want to tell her mother that she had made a mistake while taking care of Han Yichen. She could only make a few remarks while trying to hide the truth. "Mom, isn’t it because Dad’s condition is not good? He was sent to surgery again in the morning. He hasn’t woken up, so I can only stay behind and wait for him to wake up. By the way, Mom, where were you? If you had been with me then, I could have gone home to take a nap. I have been awake for three days and almost three nights...I am tired as well!"
Han Ziyan did not want to blame her mother, but she could not help it. She didn’t get anything to eat or drink and was forced to stay at the hospital. In the end, she had to take her own money out and purchase some porridge and vegetable buns to fill her stomach. The food in the hospital cafetaria was not only expensive but also tasteless. She could have easily purchased a new pair of shoes with the money she wasted on lunch.
She wanted Han Xuehan to buy food for her, but Han Yong was really mean. He pointedly said to her that compared to her, who had buried their family under a twenty-one thousand yuan debt for a job, his sister was much more sensible, and she had not done anything shameless to let their family down. Naturally, she did not have a job and could not earn. Where would she get the money to buy her lunch?
At that time, there were many patients and doctors around them, and they all heard his words. Even when Han Ziyan wanted to defend herself, she couldn’t do it. In the end, even Han Ziyan, with her thick skin, could no longer stand their gazes and went to the cafetaria on her own, but she was not happy after wasting so much money.
Her eyes turned red due to the grievances that she had suffered, and she said to her mother, "Mom, do you even know how much I suffered when you were not here? What were you doing?"
"Don’t cry, don’t cry. My heart will burst if I see you cry...isn’t it because of your good sister that I had to go and deal with a few things? They made things difficult for Xirou and your father called me... I wanted to make Han Jianyou drop out of the school. That way, I could have collected the fees that we paid, as well as stopped him from bullying your sister. Who would have thought that the teachers were so sly that they called Old Madam Han?" Meng Yunhan felt sorry for what happened to Han Ziyan, but she was just as apologetic toward Yun Xirou and Yun Xinye.
It was all because of her unfilial son that the two of them had to suffer such a humiliating thing.
Meng Yunhan thought that Han Ziyan would feel sorry for her after she told her where she was, but not only was Han Ziyan not sorry for her, but she also felt annoyed. Unlike Meng Yunhan, who took the Yun family as her own, Han Ziyan only accepted Yun Xinye, her biological father, as a family member. As for the rest? She did not care about them.
She rolled her eyes and sharply said, "Mom, do you really have the time to worry about Yun Xirou? Your own family is falling apart. I heard grandmother speak to second uncle...she was talking about divorcing you. I am sure as soon as Father wakes up, she will tell him to divorce you! It’s bad enough that they had found out about the money that you had borrowed, but now you went ahead and caused trouble for Han Jianyou. Don’t you know how much the Han family cares about him? They all believe that he can become a college student!"
"You stepped on their bottom line, even if Dad does not divorce you... I am sure he will never let this matter go! Why can’t you first deal with the fire in your own backyard?" Han Ziyan also felt frustrated with her mother. Their own family was in trouble, and instead of worrying about her own life, she was taking care of Yun Xirou’s matter. They had not even cleaned up their own butts, but instead of feeling worried about her own condition, she was rushing to help others.
Was her mother an idiot?
Meng Yunhan paled when she heard Han Ziyan say that her mother-in-law was thinking about divorcing her. There was nothing wrong with getting divorced, but she wanted Han Yichen to be the one to be shamed! She could not let her reputation be ruined. If she were the one who lost her face, then how would she marry Yun Xinye in a high-profile manner?
"Did she really say that?"
"Of course! Mom, instead of worrying about Yun Xirou and the rest...you should worry about yourself." Han Ziyan rolled her eyes again before stretching her hand forward. "Give me five yuan; I want to eat something. Because of the mess you made, no one went to cook at home. Naturally, they had not prepared anything to eat, but I am starving and cannot wait any longer."
When Meng Yunhan heard that Han Ziyan wanted her to take five yuan out, her expression turned bad. She didn’t go to work today and was sure that her salary was going to be deducted. Five yuan was not a big sum, but it was not a small sum either. She thought about it and said to Han Ziyan, "Ah Ziyan, mom—"
"Mom, are you giving me the money or not?" Han Ziyan demanded angrily. She had already spent ten yuan on lunch and breakfast; there was no way she was going to empty her wallet any more. What’s more, she was smart enough to know that since she had made a mistake, no one would be willing to show her a good face. So she could only ask her mother to give her money.
