Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Let’s Get Married (16) Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Let’s Get Married (16) “Miss Lu…”
The caregiver auntie’s tears once again fell like rain. She watched as a body was wheeled out of the ergency room, covered with a white cloth with large stains of fresh blood on the sheet.
Lu Wanwan stood in the middle of the corridor, an overcoat thrown over her pajamas, her face full of bewildernt, as if suddenly she didn’t know where she was.
The white light of the corridor made the place even more chilly, and her face was devoid of any color.
She couldn’t hear anything the doctor said; all she could feel was the caregiver auntie’s crying in her ears, unceasing and soft.
The news she had received upon arriving was still in her mind.
Grandmother had committed suicide—Grandmother suddenly committed suicide!
How was this possible?!
The always optimistic grandmother had always been strong, even when tornted by illness.
How could such a person possibly be associated with suicide?
The caregiver auntie’s daughter had been in a car accident and injured. She had brought her daughter back after seeing the doctor and had returned ho because her daughter’s arm was in too much pain. Noticing the old lady had finally fallen asleep again, she rushed back ho for a while.
By the ti she returned in the early morning, the old lady had already slit her wrists.
“Miss Lu, Miss Lu?”
Doctors bustled around her, and several police officers ca to start an investigation.
Lu Wanwan stood there, dumb as a wooden chicken, for a long ti unable to cry or speak.
Soon, Zhao Chen received news from the hospital and quickly ca over to handle these matters, ensuring the police did not continue to interrogate her.
Lu Wanwan was settled in a hospital room, and after the caregiver auntie completed her statent to the police, she ca over, repeatedly calling her na.
“Auntie Qiu.” Lu Wanwan suddenly looked up, her eyes red, and her voice trembling, “Am I dreaming? Auntie Qiu, am I dreaming?!”
The caregiver auntie looked at her, her mouth slightly open, but she couldn’t say anything.
Thinking of the old lady’s last words, she looked at Lu Wanwan as if she had beco dumb.
Until the end, she didn’t say anything.
“Miss Lu, if you want to cry, just cry…” the caregiver auntie said with pity.
She was a single mother, and her daughter had been rebellious and not close to her since she was young. In recent years, however, she felt a sense of family with the old lady and Miss Lu.
Although just a caregiver, she looked at Lu Wanwan as if she were her own daughter.
Everyone thought the old lady finally had the chance to be discharged from the hospital, to recover, to no longer suffer from illness.
Who would have known that such a thing would happen just when there was hope?
Lu Wanwan kept shaking her head, and tears began to fall, “No, I don’t believe it! Auntie, what exactly happened? Grandmother wouldn’t do this without cause, right? She’s not that kind of person, I know her, she’s not!”
“Miss Lu…” the caregiver auntie looked at her, not wanting to say anything cruel, yet her eyes searched for an answer, “I’ve told everything I know to the police. Miss Lu, try to calm down and rest for a bit. In your current state, the old lady wouldn’t rest easy if she saw you.”
The caregiver auntie’s heart was twisted in pain, unsure of what to do.
Tell her the truth?
Whether it was what the old lady allowed her to say—the things she told the police—or what the old lady forbade her from revealing, she found herself unable to speak them while looking at Lu Wanwan.
“I’ll go find the police.” After a long wait, Lu Wanwan got no answer from the caregiver auntie.
She turned to leave, determined to find the police who hadn’t left and get a clear answer.
Just as she opened the door, she ran into Zhao Chen coming in.
