Chapter 348: Chapter 348: I... just won’t see it then.
Qiao Yanjing saw her hesitating and anxiously said, "There’s no time, we have to go in now."
"Okay—"
Although Song Song responded, the fear in her heart made it difficult to move. She gritted her teeth and walked to the door of the hospital room.
At this moment, Huo Chen and Huo Junting were both there. As soon as they saw them coming, they immediately came forward...
"Song Song," Huo Chen called out with slightly trembling eyes.
"I want to see my mom, is she inside?"
Just as Song Song was about to enter, Huo Chen suddenly reached out to block her way, "Song Song, you’d better not go in."
"Why?"
"Why?"
Song Song and Qiao Yanjing spoke in unison, their expressions surprisingly alike.
Huo Chen’s gaze was fixed on Qiao Yanjing, filled with overwhelming hatred amidst his back pain, "Qiao, you are not eligible to see Xue Qin for the last time. You’d better leave quickly now, or your leg will end up like mine!"
"Huo Chen, even now you still want to fight with me?"
Qiao Yanjing seemed to be teetering on the brink of collapse, his eyes bloodshot and filled with tears, "Of course if it weren’t for your appearance, how could she and I have ended up like this today? It’s all because of you, because of you!"
Seeing that the two were about to fight at the door of the hospital room, Huo Junting quickly stepped forward to stop them, "Enough, what time do you think it is now? Do you really have to argue here?"
"Song Song, go in quickly, don’t keep Aunt Xue waiting too long."
But Huo Chen once again reached out to stop her, "Wait, you don’t need to go in. Even if you do, you won’t see her one last time. Xue Qin always loved beauty, and she said before that no one could see her after she left, not even her own daughter."
"Song Song, if you really have filial piety, offer more incense at your mom’s grave, visit her more during festivals, don’t be like this time, knowing she’s critically ill yet only appearing now—"
Huo Junting’s eyes suddenly widened, "Dad, what are you saying? Didn’t Aunt Xue just..."
"Junting, shut up, what was going on when you called Song Song last time? Why didn’t you make it clear? So you’re also responsible for this..."
Huo Chen suddenly changed his tone, starting to point out the missteps among everyone in front of the hospital room.
Song Song held back her tears that were about to overflow, "Uncle Huo, now is not the time to say this. Let me see her first. You can scold or hit me afterwards, just let me see her first!"
"I really didn’t receive the call from big brother before. I didn’t deliberately come now, I really didn’t receive it..."
Huo Junting immediately frowned, "Song Song, that’s definitely impossible. The time I called you, you answered but didn’t say a word, and after I finished speaking, you hung up directly."
"... That time?"
Song Song suddenly recalled that there was a time her phone wasn’t with her, Xiao Jinghuai had taken it. Could it have been when Huo Junting called her?
Someone answered but didn’t speak?
Was it Xiao Jinghuai?
Before Song Song could gather her thoughts, Huo Chen took out a CD and handed it to her, "Song Song, you’d better not go in. Xue Qin recorded everything she wanted to say to you on this. Take it home and watch it."
"... Huo Chen, what exactly do you want! She’s her biological daughter! Can’t she even see her one last time?"
Qiao Yanjing could no longer bear it, "If you keep blocking, do you believe I’ll break the other leg too?"
Huo Chen sneered, "Qiao Yanjing, back then you broke my leg because Xue Qin stopped me from fighting back. If she hadn’t stopped me, the one with the broken leg would be you!"
"Enough! Stop arguing!"
Song Song gripped the CD tightly, feeling a faint pain in her palm, "I... I won’t see her then."
If this is truly her mother’s wish, she’s willing not to see!
