Sheng Xiao knew that Mu Tangxue was in the hospital. So, he locked the door of the operating room before he hugged Mu Qiqi. He was not letting anyone enter the room so that nobody would know about their relationship.
Mu Qiqi sobbed in Sheng Xiao's arms. She hated her mother. But, when she knew that she was not going to see her again in the future, she could not help but cry.
At the age of eighteen, she had already lost two of her family members and one of them was her closest family!
Thinking about this, Sheng Xiao hugged Mu Qiqi tighter.
Su Zipei turned around and looked at Mu Qiqi who was crying. She had finally managed to stop herself from crying. She patted Mu Qiqi's shoulder and said, "Your mother's injury was very serious. She will suffer if she survives this. It is better for her this way. At least, she will not feel the pain anymore."
"For now, all we can do for her is to give her a nice funeral and find out the truth."
Mu Qiqi stopped crying. She stayed quiet for a few seconds before looking at her aunt.
"Aunt, I want to see Mu Tangxue."
Su Zipei knew why she wanted to do so, and she looked at Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao looked down into Mu Qiqi's eyes and nodded. "Go, just don't be too harsh. I will take care of it afterward."
Mu Qiqi moved away from Sheng Xiao and held Su Zipei instead.
The two stormed into the emergency ward again and they saw that Mu Tangxue was having a drip.
"Sister."
Mu Qiqi did not let her have time to utter another word and dragged her onto the floor.
Mu Tangxue fell onto the floor, crying. She had no energy to resist.
The nurse rushed to stop Mu Qiqi. She said, "What are you doing? The patient is seriously injured..."
Mu Qiqi looked at Mu Tangxue from above. She grabbed her around her neck and said, "You were just injured. Why don't you just die?"
Mu Tangxue cried so hard that she could not speak. She spent quite a long time gasping for air before she could speak again.
"How is... how is Mommy?"
"You still dare to ask!" Mu Qiqi grabbed hold of Mu Tangxue's head and smacked her head into the cabinet.
When the nurse saw what she did, she pulled Mu Qiqi away and warned her.
"I will call the police if you continue being like this!"
Mu Qiqi nearly fell down.
When she found her balance again, she said, "Since young, Mommy always took your side. She even sacrificed me to swap our exam papers for you. I hated her but I never really wanted to take revenge on her but you! She would have never expected that her dearest daughter would send her to hell with her own hands!"
"Sister, I really have nothing to do with this! Even if I am cruel, I will not harm Mommy!" Mu Tangxue wept bitterly.
"You know very well whether you have done it or not. But I tell you, Mu Tangxue. You better make sure you do not leave any evidence this time, if not..."
"I will kill you!"
Mu Tangxue cried so hard that she could not stand up even after the nurse tried to help her up several times.
Then, Mu Qiqi asked, "Don't you want to see Mommy for one last time? At least you can remember her face when she died. I want you to remember it forever!"
Mu Tangxue finally got up. She walked out of the emergency ward with the nurse's help.
Mu Qiqi and Su Zipei followed her behind. The journey to the operating room felt like forever.
When they were finally at the door of the operating room, Mu Tangxue looked into the room.
Seeing the burnt body of her mother, she was so scared that her legs gave out and she fell onto the floor.
