Chapter 874: Gently, I Flicked My Sleeves and Simply Abandoned My Brother

In that instant, the air seemed to freeze.

It was so silent that it was terrifying.

Only Nian Xiaomu’s voice continued to sound incessantly from the phone.

“The truth will be out sooner or later. I don’t care about what Tang Yuansi thinks, but if he is really sick, he should tell Shangxin about it truthfully. Shangxin is pregnant with his child right now, what will happen to her if something happened to him?”

“I don’t know what you men are thinking, you always think that you are very smart and that you can hide everything from everyone. I am reminding you guys now, once a woman’s suspicions are aroused, she will turn into Sherlock Holmes anytime and outdo all of you in a single second.”

“I am being serious about this, tell Tang Yuansi to wait and see what will happen once Shangxin discovers that he was a big fat liar. I’ll see how he will settle the mess then…”

“…”

He didn’t have to wait. He did not even know how he should clear up the mess.

Realizing the strange atmosphere in the hospital ward, Yu Yuehan hung up the prophet-turned Nian Xiaomu’s call.

He gave her a ‘like’ silently in his heart.

Amazing.

She had hit the bullseye for everything.

Luckily, Tang Yuansi was the pitiful creature whose lies had been exposed, not him.

As Yu Yuehan stood up slowly, he patted his trousers and let out a slight cough. “It seems like you both have something to talk about. I’ll take my leave first.”

Gently, I flicked my sleeves and simply abandoned my brother.

Yu Yuehan left.

Tang Yuansi, who was lying on the hospital bed, Shangxin, who was standing at the entrance, and the assistant, who could be seen everywhere, were the only people left in the hospital ward…

As Tang Yuansi’s assistant stared at Yu Yuehan’s disappearing back, he silently screamed for Young Master Han to take him with him.

However, it was a pity that Yu Yuehan did not detect his silent cries and walked off alone.

A sinking feeling lingered in the hospital ward.

The atmosphere was so oppressing that one could barely breathe this smothering pressure.

The assistant was initially worried that Shangxin would get angry, upset, worried and afraid when she found out that Tang Yuansi had fallen ill. Or instead, she might turn out to be so agitated that she would give Tang Yuansi a beating when she knew that she had been tricked…

However, every scene that he had expected did not happen in real life.

She merely stood at the entrance and stared at Tang Yuansi.

Her clear and bright eyes had turned red.

However, she forcefully held it in and did not allow the tears to fall…

The assistant, who was usually slow on reactions, was quick with his reaction today as he pulled out some tissues and handed them to her. Then, he spoke before anyone else could.

“Miss Shangxin, the doctor has just instructed that President Tang should not be agitated further with the current condition of his body. Otherwise, his life might be at risk!”

“…”

The few words “life might be at risk” were invincibly lethal.

Shangxin’s exceptionally furious gaze from earlier on, gradually turned into one that was filled with worry. At the same time, she had also held back the words of interrogation that she had planned to bombard him with.

She lifted her head and stared at the assistant.

With a voice choking with emotion, she asked, “What exactly is going on?”

Phew…

The assistant instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed that he was already on the verge of collapsing. He did not even bother to study Tang Yuansi’s gaze and started to explain to her.

“President Tang has suffered a relapse of his heart disease. Yes, the worst-case scenario has happened. Based on the current condition of his body, a normal operation will not cure him and he will only drag out the time he has left. However, the risks involved in the operation only get higher and higher the longer he leaves it. If any accident happened, he might just die on the operating table… Miss Shangxin, President Tang loves you and he only pushed you away time and time again because he was afraid that he would be a burden to you!”

The assistant literally ‘spilled the beans’ and confessed all that he knew in one shot.

He told her everything, including the previously failed operation that Tang Yuansi had undergone that year. When he knew that he might not be able to survive past his thirties, he had joined forces with everyone and lied to her that the operation was a success, just because he did not want her to be sad.
