Upon seeing her daughter, Lin Yin was so moved that she burst into tears. Gu Qingxin glanced at her father standing in the ward, then quickly walked over to her mother’s side. She took her mother’s hand and softly said, “Mom.”

“Qingxin…” Lin Yin tightly gripped Gu Qingxin’s hand, struggling to speak her daughter’s name.

“Mom, how are you feeling? Are you getting better?” Gu Qingxin gently touched her mother’s face.

“School…” Lin Yin looked anxious. Gu Qingxin understood her mother’s meaning. Her mother was worried that she would miss school because of her job.

“Mom, I’ve taken on a short-term job. I’ll stop working before school starts. Don’t worry, I’ll stay on top of my schoolwork.”

Lin Yin loved her daughter dearly, but she was also very strict with Gu Qingxin. Especially regarding her education, she never allowed her to slack off.

It was only after hearing her daughter’s assurances that Lin Yin relaxed. It seemed she still had a lot to tell her daughter, but because she had just undergone surgery, she hadn’t fully regained her ability to speak. She stuttered, but couldn’t utter a single word.

“Mom, don’t rush. Once you’re feeling better, then we can talk, okay?” Gu Qingxin gave her mother a comforting smile.

Lin Yin blinked. The nurse came in and said, “The patient needs to rest. Right now, rest is the most important thing for her.”

“Qingxin, come out with me. I have something to say to you,” Gu Huai’an told his daughter.

Gu Qingxin frowned slightly, then gently patted her mother’s hand. “Mom, you go ahead and rest. I’ll be right back.”

There was a look of helplessness in Lin Yin’s eyes. With her condition being so severe, she felt powerless to protect her daughter. All she could do was slowly close her eyes.

Only Gu Qingxin and Gu Huai’an were left in the hospital corridor. Gu Huai’an stopped walking and said, “The day after tomorrow is the engagement of Rong Ling and your sister. Remember to attend. I don’t want people to say our family isn’t harmonious.”

“I’m not going.”

Even though she didn’t know what her father was planning, Gu Qingxin knew it wasn’t going to be good.

“Not going? I’ll tell your mother about you trading yourself for the surgery money and see if she dies of anger!” Gu Huai’an laughed coldly, looking at his daughter in front of him. He saw her and her mother as each other’s weak spots. They were not ready to go up against him.

Gu Qingxin stared at the man in front of her in disbelief. She could hardly believe that this shameless man was her father!

He hadn’t cared about her mother’s life or death before, and now he was threatening her with it!

“Whether you go or not is up to you!” Gu Huai’an looked coldly at the girl in front of him, showing no mercy at all.

When Gu Qingxin returned to the ward, Lin Yin was still awake. She was probably worried and waiting for her daughter’s return.

Before entering her mother’s room, Gu Qingxin mustered up her energy and put on a warm smile once more.

She walked up to the bedside and took her mother’s hand, explaining, “Dad was asking me about my job. He said I can ask for money at home if I need it, and that I don’t have to work.”

“Really?” Lin Yin struggled to get the words out, fearing that Gu Huai’an was up to no good again.

“Really, mom. You get some sleep now. I’m not going anywhere today. I’m right here with you. You have to take good care of yourself and get better soon, okay?” Gu Qingxin sat down and pressed her mother’s hand to her cheek.

Lin Yin managed to smile slightly. Seeing her daughter’s face, she finally closed her eyes in relief and soon fell asleep….
