"If I had told your dad earlier that I was pregnant with twins, that child wouldn't have been lost," Zhu's mother still blames herself.
"Mom! Back then, you didn't tell dad because you were afraid he would blame himself! You said that dad felt guilty for not rushing back to be with you during childbirth. He didn't eat or drink and stayed by your hospital bed. If he knew you had lost a child, he would probably have wanted to kill himself!"
"He should have known because I lied to him from the beginning, I was carrying a single child. Your dad is a careful person, if he knew I had a twin, he would have put me first in everything. Twin pregnancies usually result in premature birth, he definitely wouldn't have gone on a business trip in the later stages of my pregnancy."
"Mom, how many years ago was that! You wouldn't think that a doctor could lack medical ethics! This is all fate, and there's no way to change it. Even if you dwell on it, it won't help. You shouldn't blame yourself anymore."
"Junqiao, this matter is indeed my fault."
"If you feel it's your fault, then you should think of a way to apologize to Dad. Your relationship is good; it won't fall apart because of this."
"Well, I'll wait for him to calm down a bit before I call him."
"Mom, hang in there. Once I bring Tong Tong back to you, things on your side will be much easier!"
Tong Tong is the treasure of the Zhu Family. Even when they encounter bad things and are in a bad mood, seeing Tong Tong will instantly make them happy.
Zhu Junqiao was worried about the situation at home and bought tickets to bring Tong Tong back to help. Zhu Junqiao was right; with Tong Tong around, it could ease the atmosphere. Zhu's mother was afraid that Zhu's father would be in a bad mood and that driving would be unsafe. She took out her phone several times, wanting to call him, but ultimately gave up.
Zhu's father was worried about Zhu Junjie. Before meeting Mong Si, he went to the hospital to check on Zhu Junjie's condition. When he saw Zhu Junjie with a bruised and battered face, his feelings were particularly complicated. Previously, when Zhu Junjie had undergone such a significant change, he thought it was due to some insurmountable difficulties that had altered his personality. He never expected that it was two children "turning against each other."
Zhu's father felt a mix of emotions, as if a bottle of flavors had been overturned in his heart. He reached out to touch Zhu Junjie but hesitated, fearing it might hurt him. "Has he been in a coma the whole time?"
"He woke up once in between, but then fell back asleep in a daze. Dr. Wei said there are traces of sedatives in his system, and once the medication wears off, he should wake up," Song Lan reassured Zhu's father, noticing the troubled expression on his face. "Dr. Wei has already treated his wounds, and the fever is under control. He has a strong constitution and will recover soon."
"Yes. Thank you for your hard work these days."
"I should take care of him."
"Junjie, you don't have to worry too much. I'll arrange for two people to come and help you share the burden."
"No need, Dad. I have someone helping me here."
The person arranged by Zhou Qianyi is very diligent and doesn't need her to intervene at all. She stays by Zhu Junjie's side purely for her own peace of mind.
"Alright, if you feel tired, make sure to let us know," Zhu's father said, noticing the caregiver who was cooking in the kitchen. He trusted Song Lan's words. "I'll leave for now, and I'll come back in the evening."
"Dad, it takes half an hour to drive from home to the hospital. I'm here, so you don't need to keep running back and forth."
"It’s going to be very tiring."
"He is my child, and it's my responsibility to take care of him. I can't just hand him over to you."
"Dad..."
"I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first."
Zhu's father interrupted Song Lan's words and turned away.
Song Lan was preparing to send him out of the ward when she inadvertently looked up and saw Zhu's father's stooped back. In her memory, Zhu's father had always stood straight and been very spirited. Seeing him like this, Song Lan thought of Zhu's mother and felt a pang in her heart. "Dad, how is mom's health?" "She's much better."
"When I talked to her today, I felt that her mood was a bit low. Dad, please spend more time with her at home."
"She keeps everything to herself and doesn't talk to me. Even if I'm with her all the time, her mood doesn't improve!"
When Zhu's father first mentioned Zhu's mother, he could still brush it off, but Song Lan's next words made his anger skyrocket.
When Song Lan first saw Zhu's father lose his temper, she was taken aback for a moment before realizing that he knew the truth!
“Dad, there are some things Mom didn't mean to hide from you. It's just…”
“Am I too foolish? You all know that Junjie has a fraternal twin brother, yet I'm the only one kept in the dark? Do you think that if I found out about this, it would ruin your plans?”
Zhu's father lost control of his emotions for a moment and directed a series of questions at Song Lan. As an elder, Zhu's father lowered his head and didn't say much. It would be best for Zhu's mother to speak about the events of that year.
Song Lan wanted to tell Zhu's father the truth, but couldn't find the words to do so. Zhu's father knew that he had been kept in the dark for so long, and it was normal for him to be angry and lose his temper. His body heaved with anger, but as he gradually regained his composure and remembered Song Lan's identity, he took a deep breath and calmed himself, saying, "I'm sorry. This matter should not have involved you. I didn't control my emotions well just now."
This matter, Song Lan, is also a victim. It was that child who impersonated Zhu Junjie's identity, causing some emotional harm to Song Lan. She was able to promptly notice the anomaly, find the truth, rescue Zhu Junjie, and take care of him tirelessly. She is the savior of the Zhu Family. His anger towards her is truly unjustified.
Zhu's father apologizes to Song Lan.
"Dad, I know you're feeling upset, but some things have already passed for many years. Let go of what needs to be let go. What we need to do now is to have a good talk with Mong Si and try to resolve the emotional knot."
"Mong Si?"
"Yes, his current name is Mong Si, which should have been given to him by his foster parents."
"His foster parents did not provide him with the life he wanted, and he is ungrateful to them."
"Mong Si's experiences are different from those of ordinary people. She harbors resentment towards Mong Si, but also feels some sympathy. If Zhu's father and Zhu's mother knew, they would definitely feel heartbroken."
Song Lan didn't dare to tell Zhu's mother the full story of Mong Si's experiences, fearing that it would make her even more upset and unable to bear it. But these things cannot be hidden. After hesitating, Song Lan said, "Dad, I have some information about Mong Si's life experiences over the years. I will send it to you. After you've read it, I hope you can stay calm and have a good talk with Mong Si."
Only by knowing the experiences of Mong Si can Zhu's father talk to him.
This is also the reason why Song Lan decided to give the information to Zhu's father.
Zhu's father: "Okay."
"Dad, please have a seat on the sofa now."
The content of that document was organized by Yan Wen, and Song Lan hopes that Zhu's father will read it here in order to control his emotions.
Zhu's father did not refuse and sat down on the sofa.
After observing Zhu's father's expression, Song Lan opened his phone, found the saved information, and sent it to Zhu's father.
Upon seeing the content of the information, Zhu's father was filled with anger. He was eager to know how his child had been taken away from Zhu's mother, only to find out that it was a case of the doctor switching the babies. This doctor was truly unscrupulous for the sake of money!
