Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 990

Chapter 990: Chapter 990: My Family Has Long Fallen Apart

Chu Yin stared at the half-drunk milk tea, her cheeks flushed, and she couldn’t help but laugh.

"Mr. Sang, it’s the first time you’ve blushed in front of me. It’s quite embarrassing."

"..."

Sang Li pressed his lips together, feeling a tingling sensation on his lips.

Chu Yin decided not to tease him further, got up, and fetched a bottle of yogurt from the fridge, handing it to Sang Li.

"Here, drink this."

"Thank you."

Sang Li took the yogurt and drank a sip, quickly suppressing the spice.

"Are you happy now?"

"I’ve always been happy." Chu Yin took a bite of rice cake.

Sang Li put down the yogurt and wiped his mouth: "The expert has already been here to see him. Xiao Zuo is recovering. He will definitely wake up, so don’t worry too much."

Chu Yin felt a slight relief in her heart.

"Okay."

She was just about to take a bite of the fried skewer when her phone rang in her pocket.

She thought it was about the online matter.

Now the online issues couldn’t stir her emotions at all.

Lin Zhiyi was right, focus more on yourself, and others don’t really matter.

Including her parents and sister.

So she took out her phone and answered the call directly.

A cry came from the other end of the line—it was Mrs. Chu.

"Ayin, where are you? Your father is being resuscitated. Please come and see him, I really don’t know what to do?"

"Are you trying to trick me into going there again for something?"

Chu Yin instinctively felt that Mrs. Chu was deceiving her again.

Mrs. Chu froze for a moment. With too many cries of ’wolf’, Chu Yin simply didn’t believe her anymore.

Suppressing her sobs, Mrs. Chu pleaded: "Ayin, it’s true this time. I’m begging you."

"Don’t you always think only of Chu Wu? You should find Chu Wu; I can’t help you."

Chu Yin was about to hang up.

Mrs. Chu spoke up: "Ayin, I’m sorry, really sorry. I’m begging you to come see your father."

Compared to previous insincere apologies, Chu Yin could hear Mrs. Chu’s remorse.

Her rationality advised her not to go, but blood ties unknowingly made her stand up.

Chu Yin glanced at Sang Li beside her.

Understanding her nature, Sang Li nodded slightly and mouthed quietly.

"Go ahead."

Chu Yin immediately said: "I know, I’ll be right there."

She put down the phone and looked at Sang Li helplessly.

Zhou Zhao interjected: "You’re still going? Aren’t you worried there might be some nonsense again? Your parents seem to be utterly bewitched by your sister."

Chu Yin replied: "It’s true. My mom never speaks to me so submissively."

Even if she were acting to please her, Mrs. Chu’s tone never softened.

Zhou Zhao wanted to continue persuading, but Sang Li stopped him with a look.

Sang Li stood up, saying: "Let’s go. I’ll accompany you. If anything happens, I can help."

Chu Yin immediately stopped him: "No, whether it’s true or not, if my parents recognize you, you’ll get entangled."

Her promise to Mrs. Chu to go didn’t mean she trusted her.

Therefore, Sang Li couldn’t show up too early.

Beside them, Zhou Zhao quickly stood up.

"Young Master, I’ll go with her. Anyway, no one knows me. If someone asks, we’ll say I’m temporarily filling Xiao Zuo’s assistant role from the company."

"Yes, that’s better. My mom won’t target an assistant." Chu Yin agreed.

Sang Li saw Chu Yin was quite worried, so he agreed.

"I’ll wait for you in the ward."

...

Chu Yin moved aside to dial Chu Wu’s number.

The phone rang a few times before Chu Wu answered, her voice particularly smug.

"Chu Yin? What’s up? Afraid now? Calling me to reconcile?"

"Reconcile with your head! Do you know Dad’s being resuscitated? Get over here quickly!" Chu Yin demanded.

"You... Why? What’s it got to do with me? To be honest, it’s your fault. If you hadn’t called the police and had Dad arrested, how would he have gotten sick?"

Chu Wu’s words came through the phone, causing Mrs. Chu’s face to pale.

Chu Yin clearly said: "Chu Wu, come over now, or don’t blame me."

"Haha, since childhood, you’ve said that countless times. What’s the result?" Chu Wu replied.

"Beep beep beep..."

Chu Wu actually hung up the phone.

Chu Yin stared at her phone, almost ready to curse.

Just then, a doctor emerged from the resuscitation room.

"The patient has had a stroke, arrived a bit late. After resuscitation, there’s no life-threatening risk now, but he may be paralyzed. Slow recovery will be needed."

"Paralyzed? Impossible, how did this happen?" Mrs. Chu couldn’t accept the outcome.

The doctor also seemed helpless: "After examination, we found he wasn’t following dietary restrictions. With his condition, he should’ve been more cautious. Didn’t you know about his hypertension, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar before? It seems like slow suicide."

Only then did Mrs. Chu realize the severity of the situation.

The entire family had only Chu Yin nagging about the hypertension issue.

While Chu Wu kept telling them Chu Yin was doing it on purpose, the parents, already disliking Chu Yin, gradually felt she was blowing things out of proportion.

Never expected the retribution to come so swiftly.

Regret was already too late.

Mrs. Chu couldn’t hold back her sorrow and cried, turning to look at Chu Yin.

"Ayin, what are we supposed to do? What about the family?"

Chu Yin retorted with annoyance: "How would I know? My family already scattered."

Mrs. Chu opened her mouth, but said nothing more.
