Chapter 433: Chapter 433: I Will Divorce Ahchen After the New Year
When Tong Yaohui fainted, Si Xiaohui was still yelling, claiming that Tong Yaohui was faking it. Wang Xia arranged for Tong Yaohui to be taken to the hospital. Upon realizing the severity of the situation, Lin Fengying gathered Lin Man and Si Xiaohui and left.
Talking about this, Wang Xia was even more animated than Tong Yao, "Yaoyao, I don’t mean to speak ill, but your mother-in-law and sister-in-law really are something else. Your family is well off, you are so beautiful, it’s like their ancestors’ graves were smoking for them to find a daughter-in-law like you. Yet, they are still not satisfied. What gives them the right?"
Talking as they walked, they soon arrived at the hospital. Tong Yaohui was still in the rescue room, while Wen Yun stood outside it, wiping away her tears.
"Mom," Tong Yao ran over. "How is Dad?"
Wen Yun shook her head, tears streaming down her face, "We don’t know yet. Xiaochen has gone to inquire about the situation." n𝚘𝚟pub.𝚌o𝚖
Although she was worried, Tong Yao still comforted her, "Mom, don’t worry. Dad will be fine. He’s always been healthy. It was just a temporary flare-up. He’ll be out in no time."
"Your Dad has been experiencing occasional bouts of dizziness lately, he nearly fainted from anger when your mother-in-law came to cause trouble last time I tried to make him see a doctor, but he refused. I didn’t expect that he would have an episode again today, after being provoked by your mother-in-law and sister-in-law."
They had been married for over twenty years and were always affectionate. Tong Yaohui had always been healthy, the type that could recover from a cold or fever without medicine. Now that he had suddenly collapsed, Wen Yun felt like the sky was falling. If something were to happen to Tong Yaohui, what would be the point of her living?
Over the years, the couple had their squabbles, but they had never separated. While their life together seemed bland and devoid of emotion, they both saw each other as important as their own lives.
Hearing Wen Yun saying this, Tong Yao also had a bad feeling, but she had to reassure Wen Yun.
"Mom, it’s okay, don’t worry too much. Dad will surely be fine. Ahchen is a doctor, he will save Dad."
"Yes!" Wang Xia also added her reassurance: "Aunt Wen, Uncle Tong will be fine for sure. Doctor Si’s medical skills are superb. I heard that the hospital has two spots for advanced study abroad, and one of them might be Doctor Si’s. His medical skills are impressive, and Uncle Tong will surely be fine."
Wen Yun nodded, "Thank you. I’m grateful you helped arrange for Yaohui to be taken to the hospital. I don’t know what I would have done otherwise."
"It’s my duty. There’s no need to thank me." Wang Xia is a warmhearted person, she felt that anyone else in the same situation would do the same.
Tong Yao picked up on another point in Wang Xia’s words, "Sister Axia, what were you saying about the hospital spots for studying abroad?"
"You don’t know?" Wang Xia didn’t give it a second thought and quickly explained: "Our hospital now has two spots for advanced study abroad. I heard that Doctor Si stands a good chance. If it is confirmed, Doctor Si will be going abroad after the new year. When he returns with foreign accreditation, he won’t be just an ordinary doctor. Other hospitals will want to snatch him up, his salary will at least double, if not more, although I don’t really understand it very well. Anyway, my husband told me that Doctor Si has a great chance of being selected. Once chosen, your lives will certainly improve significantly."
Wang Xia didn’t quite understand all these things, and this was what she gathered from chitchat with her husband. Doctor Si is highly capable and shows great potential in the field of oncology, so the hospital highly values him and wants to cultivate him.
Although Wang Xia’s explanation was somewhat disorderly, Tong Yao understood the meaning. There were two spots available for study abroad, and Si Chen was likely to be one of them. If all goes well, he’ll be going abroad after the New Year.
In her previous life, Tong Yao didn’t pay much attention to Si Chen, nor did she know whether or not he had been abroad for further study. However, his achievements at that time would probably have only been possible if he had gone abroad. If that was the case, he would be abroad for at least two years, possibly even five years.
While this might not be considered a long time in the grand scheme of a person’s life, it’s not short either.
After all, she and Si Chen had only been married for about two years. If he went abroad for three to five years...
When Wen Yun heard that Si Chen might be going abroad, she was taken aback and instinctively looked at Tong Yao.
As it was still uncertain what would happen to Tong Yaohui in the emergency room and she just learned that her son-in-law may be going abroad, her two pillars of the family suddenly becoming unstable made Wen Yun panic even more. Initially, she was only worried about her husband. Now, her worry extended to her daughter as well.
Although Si Chen is a good boy, the fact that Tong Yao and Si Chen haven’t had a child, coupled with Lin Fengying’s continuous dramas and Si Chen’s impending departure abroad, puts their relationship at risk.
"Yaoyao, are you okay?"
Tong Yao snapped back to reality and saw the worry in Wen Yun’s face. She quickly composed herself and said, "Mom, I’m fine. If Ahchen really is going abroad, it’s a good thing. Many people want to go abroad but don’t get the chance."
Seeing the strained expressions on their faces, Wang Xia thought she had misspoken. Upon hearing Tong Yao’s comment, she quickly nodded in agreement. "Yes, yes, yes, my husband wanted to go as well, but he simply doesn’t have the aptitude. If he went, it would just be a waste of the spot."
Wen Yun let out a sigh of relief. But then, thoughts of Lin Fengying and her daughter crept back in, and she complained angrily: "Yaoyao, your mother-in-law and Xiaohui are absolutely shameless. You and Xiaochen haven’t even divorced yet, and they are already spreading rumors around the residential complex, claiming Lin Man to be Xiaochen’s future wife. Aren’t they trampling over your reputation?"
"Knowing full well that Lin Man is your cousin, she still went ahead with this mess. If word gets out, wouldn’t it be laughable? Moreover, Lin Man, not satisfied with seducing Wang Chun’s husband, she’s meddling in our family’s business. Has she lost all her shame?"
Since Lin Man could do such things, Wen Yun didn’t care if there were outsiders present. Her husband had already been admitted to the hospital out of frustration. She really didn’t have the patience to still care about Lin Man’s self-esteem.
Since Lin Man was shameless, she wouldn’t save face for her either.
Wang Xia looked surprised, her eyes widening. My word, she hadn’t expected that Lin Man was Tong Yao’s cousin.
Her cousin still hasn’t divorced, yet she’s already plotting to marry her cousin’s husband. How shameless can she get? If this happened in the countryside, wouldn’t others spit on her?
Shameless, so shameless that even she, as an outsider, felt that Lin Man had crossed the line.
Tong Yao was also very angry. Her parents were her bottom line. Lin Fengying dared to do these things, and she wouldn’t tolerate it anymore. She couldn’t be so selfish as to make her parents endure this injustice for the sake of her love life.
She said: "Mom, once Dad gets better, and after the New Year, I will divorce Ahchen. I wonder what they will have left to fuss about then."
