In the police station, Wang Meijuan grabbed Wang Hao's hand:
Haohao, save me, you have to save me.
Tell the police officers that you were the one who gave the child to me.
Hurry up and explain to them that I didn't kidnap the child, I was just helping you look after her.
Haohao, get me out of here, you must get me out.
Wang Hao slapped Wang Meijuan across the face:
Go to hell, Wang Meijuan, go to hell!
How could you do this to me? How could you stab me in the back? I'm your brother.
Wang Meijuan covered her slapped face and argued defensively:
How was I supposed to know Lin Wanyi would actually call the police?
Haven't you always said she values the child more than her own life? Why would she call the police?
You were wrong, Haozi, you were wrong.
Lin Wanyi loves her daughter, but she loves money more.
Unable to hold back, Wang Hao delivered another slap:
So what? Wang Meijuan, all you had to do was keep Keke hidden properly.
Nothing would have happened, so why did you have to act so despicably?
Why did you kidnap Keke for money?
Even putting that aside, Keke had such a high fever that she fainted, so why didn't you take her to the hospital?
Wang Meijuan, how can you be so vicious?
Being scolded by Wang Hao in front of so many people, Wang Meijuan felt utterly humiliated.
She howled:
What does this have to do with me? She already had a high fever when you brought her over.
What did you say back then? You said it's normal for kids to get fevers and just told me to give her some cold water.
Later, when she fainted, I said we should take her to the hospital, but when I asked you for money, you refused to give it.
Now you're blaming me, what a joke.
You don't even love that worthless girl yourself, you don't even treat her like a human being.
How do you have the nerve to point fingers at me?
Wang Hao was so furious that smoke could practically come out of his ears.
He turned around and walked away.
He didn't want to deal with Wang Meijuan anymore; he needed to find Lin Wanyi first.
He called Lin Wanyi again, but no one answered.
He ran toward the hospitals like a headless fly.
It had to be either the People's Hospital or the Women and Children's Hospital.
Relying on his intuition, he headed to the Women and Children's Hospital, as that was the one Lin Wanyi frequented the most in the past.
Over there, Keke was still in the emergency room. Liu Renzhi saw Wang Hao's incoming call.
He told Lin Wanyi: Block him, Wanyi, you never need to contact him again.
Remember, if anything happens in the future, contact me immediately, understand?
Lin Wanyi obediently blocked Wang Hao.
She had never planned on contacting him again anyway.
This time was only because of Keke, otherwise, she would never want to see Wang Hao again.
She never imagined that Wang Hao could be so vicious.
To actually kidnap his own biological daughter.
After an unknown amount of time, the doctor finally opened the emergency room door.
He took off his mask:
The child is temporarily out of danger and has woken up. However, it's not normal for her to have recurring fevers like this.
We've drawn some blood and will wait to see the results.
Lin Wanyi finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was as if she had suddenly lost all her support.
Her legs gave out, and she collapsed toward the ground.
Liu Renzhi caught her steadily. Li Suhua wanted to say something but ultimately kept her mouth shut.
Wang Hao searched everywhere in the hospital.
He knew they had to be there.
He had to find Lin Wanyi right now; he needed to apologize, he needed to win her back.
He had to explain that Wang Meijuan was the one who did this, and it had nothing to do with him.
But when he finally saw Lin Wanyi outside the emergency room, he found her actually throwing herself into Liu Renzhi's arms.
From his angle, they looked so intimate, so ambiguous.
It was as if they were going to kiss in the very next second.
Recalling how Liu Renzhi had deliberately provoked him a few days ago,
Wang Hao burned with jealousy and anger. He clenched his fists tightly:
Lin Wanyi, have you no shame? Your daughter is still in emergency care, and here you are hugging this wild man.
And you claimed you didn't cheat, you claimed you didn't cuckold me.
Lin Wanyi, how can you be so cheap!
Lin Wanyi forced herself to stand up with the last bit of her energy.
She wanted to slap Wang Hao across the face, but she simply couldn't lift her arm.
All she could do was glare weakly at him:
Wang Hao, go to hell, just go to hell!
Wang Hao laughed, a mocking laugh:
Lin Wanyi, you've disappointed me too much.
You keep saying you love your daughter, talking every day about how her life is more important than anything else.
But look at the result.
Your daughter is in a coma, fighting for her life, and you're here getting all cozy with a wild man.
Bah, Lin Wanyi, you're despicable.
Lin Jiajun really couldn't listen to this anymore. He raised his fist and was about to smash it into Wang Hao.
Wang Hao shoved his face right up to him:
You want to hit me again, right, Lin Jiajun? Do you want to hit me again?
Come on, hit me. I'm telling you, if you dare to lay a single finger on me, I'll call the police and send you to jail.
Before, I always held back because you're my brother-in-law.
But you've provoked me time and time again, and your sister betrayed me.
Damn it, why should I have to take your crap anymore?
Hit me, do it!
Smack!
Before Lin Jiajun's fist could land, Li Suhua's slap struck Wang Hao's face first:
Wang Hao, I'm the one who hit you now. Call the police, go ahead and call them.
Have my old bones thrown in jail.
Call them!
Wang Hao stumbled back two steps.
He stopped mentioning the police; he had been knocked into his senses by Li Suhua's slap.
He remembered his purpose for coming here—it was to beg for Lin Wanyi's forgiveness, not to escalate the conflict.
But the moment he saw Lin Wanyi and Liu Renzhi together, he couldn't control his emotions.
All those nasty words just spilled out uncontrollably.
He hadn't wanted it to be like this.
He looked at Lin Wanyi:
Wanyi, honey, you have to believe me, this has nothing to do with me.
It was my older sister, she acted on her own, she was the one who wanted money.
I didn't tell her to do this, you have to believe me, really, believe me.
I'm Keke's father, I would never kidnap her.
I...
Lin Wanyi stared at him intently, a gaze so piercing it made him feel guilty and forced him to retreat again and again.
Yet, Lin Wanyi didn't say a single word.
The deep disappointment in her eyes sharply pierced Wang Hao's heart.
His chest suddenly throbbed with pain.
He would rather see Lin Wanyi screaming, crying, and throwing a fit than see this look of utter, deadened despair.
No longer spewing profanities, he merely called out softly:
Honey, I...
Keke was wheeled out. No one listened to another word he said, nor did anyone spare him another glance.
Everyone followed Keke into the hospital room.
Wang Hao tried to go in, but Lin Jiajun blocked him at the door:
Wang Hao, Keke doesn't want to see you. Get lost!
Wang Hao stood outside the door for a long time. Through the glass window, he watched Lin Wanyi's endless tears.
His heart ached even more.
Was he really the one in the wrong?
Had dragging out the divorce really broken her heart?
But he only refused to divorce her because he loved her.
If he didn't love her anymore, he would have divorced her ages ago.
Why couldn't Lin Wanyi understand that?
