Zhenzhen tapped the screen, "Look, sitting right outside the ward, she's looking at Wangwang's medical record. She didn't even hear me when I greeted her."
Sister Li gave an indifferent oh.
Zhenzhen had never seen a live celebrity and was thrilled, "Celebrities really are celebrities! So much better looking than internet stars! I thought she used a beauty filter in her live streams, but who knew she'd be that pretty in person? Well, her son is so handsome, how could his mother not be? It's just I still have no idea who Wangwang's dad is; I've never seen him before."
After listening, Sister Li let out a mocking laugh and did not want to continue the conversation.
These days, Zhenzhen had been recommended the fourth episode of the live show "National Parent" by her bestie. In the show, Yan Yueqing's handling of bringing down Tang Tang from the mountain was very appealing, she chattered away, "Sister Li, let me tell you, Yan Yueqing is different from other artists! She's gentle with the kids on the show and even took the initiative to reveal Yan Wang's existence! She dares to make public that she has a child, which is so much better than those stars who sneak around in relationships and won't admit it."
"Really?" Sister Li offered kindly, "What if it was deliberate?"
"Deliberate?" Zhenzhen sensed something was off with her emotions, "What's wrong?"
Sister Li also had a child. Thinking of what Yan Yueqing did, she sighed, "You've been in the hospital for a year now, how many times have you seen her?"
Zhenzhen: "Uh... just this one time, I guess?"
"There you go, as a mother, she doesn't care about her own child at all. What's good about such a person?"
"Maybe as an artist she's too busy? I've been following reality shows recently, and look at her—"
Sister Li interrupted with a cold laugh, "Too busy to not visit her son for a whole year?"
Zhenzhen was left speechless, unable to reply.
She hadn't watched from the first episode; otherwise, that Yan Yueqing who only played the fawning admirer would have long since annoyed her!
The Yan Yueqing from the fourth episode had changed so much that a lot of new fans had a favorable impression of her.
That's how people are, instinctively protecting those who give a good first impression and being indifferent towards those who don't.
Now, hearing what Sister Li pointed out, Zhenzhen seemed to finally connect the dots between the Yueqing looking at the medical records and Wangwang's mother, who was nowhere to be seen.
Suddenly feeling disappointed!
Indeed...
Gentle and attentive to other kids in the show, yet neglecting her own son in reality...
"Emmmm... Speaking of which, Yan Yueqing isn't as enthusiastic as her own family members," Zhenzhen muttered, "The old master at seventy, every two or three months, would come to visit his great-grandson with the help of his cane..."
"You haven't heard the worst part yet!" Sister Li's expression became stern, "Do you remember Wangwang's serious illness from a year ago?"
Zhenzhen nodded frantically!
How could she forget?!
Wangwang was so beautiful, there wasn't a single nurse who didn't like him.
Even back when she had just arrived at the hospital, she couldn't help wanting to visit him during her free time.
But one evening, Wangwang suddenly became seriously ill!
Fine during the day, and then at night, he started to have a high fever that wouldn't subside, convulsions, and then he became unconscious...
The hospital issued three critical condition notices, even the old master of the Yan Family was alarmed.
Zhenzhen had never seen such a big commotion at the hospital before!
The memory was still fresh!
Sister Li shook her head, took a deep breath, and let out chilling words, "Have you ever seen a mother who wants her son to die?"
"What?" Zhenzhen thought she had heard wrong.
Sister Li looked at the monitor mockingly, "That day, Wangwang was clutching his phone, asking me to call his mother who hadn't come for a long time, and who knew..."
Yan Yueqing was probably at a party, drunk, and upon hearing the head nurse's request, she replied coldly, "Such a sickly thing, if he really were my son, he should just go die! Don't bother me anymore, okay?"
Sister Li held the phone, looking at Wangwang sitting at the head of the bed.
The hopeful look in his eyes gradually dimmed.
Bit by bit... it turned into lifelessness!
Zhenzhen gasped in shock, unable to believe what she was hearing, "She was really that cruel?"
"Later, when Wangwang regained consciousness, she did come to the hospital once..."
Sister Li had thought that Yan Yueqing might have just been drunk and in a bad mood that night.
But!
After meeting her, she only asked one question, "Has that little bastard died yet?"
Seven words!
Each word struck deep!
Sister Li couldn't imagine how such a beautiful person could actually wish for her own son's death?!
Did she still have a heart?!
Zhenzhen immediately became angry, "How can a mother be so heartless? Wangwang is so adorable, who in the nurses' station doesn't like him? But his mother, on the other hand... If I had such an adorable son, I would definitely pamper him in the palms of my hands! Has she gone mad?"
"In a place like a hospital, there are more prayers than in a church! In the same vein, the nature of humanity can be more fascinating than a TV drama." Sister Li sighed, "Some people look gentle, but their hearts are crueler than anyone's! Yan Yueqing changed too much after entering the entertainment industry... Sometimes I feel like she's become someone else."
Upon hearing these words, Zhenzhen hurriedly said, "Sister Li, tell me more!"
Sister Li stacked her rounds' reports together, "These things aren't a secret in our hospital."
Yan Wang, that child, had been in this hospital since he was born.
From the incubator, to the ICU, and then to the sterile ward... he grew all the way up to this size.
As for Yan Yueqing... she wasn't always like this.
When Sister Li first met Yan Yueqing, she was herself a new nurse.
Following the doctor to review medical records, she managed to meet her in the VIP ward.
The thin girl, with a huge pregnant belly, sat in front of the hospital bed, her face devoid of life.
Sister Li had never seen such a beautiful person, nor had she ever seen someone struggling in pain between life and death.
Seemingly triggered by something, she would stand in front of the window with a determined look, as if she might jump out the next second? Other times, she sat quietly by the bed, caressing her belly with a look of tender love.
The day before the child was born, she went back home.
Latter, she was brought to the hospital covered in blood.
Yan Yueqing was pregnant with twins, but because they had suffered a severe blow inside the womb, one didn't make it, while the other was rushed into the ICU.
After she regained consciousness, the first thing she did was to endure the severe pain and kneel in front of the isolation ward, praying for her son's safety.
At that time, Sister Li thought that if this one didn't make it either, Yan Yueqing wouldn't survive!
Luckily, the little guy held on.
However, he was extremely weak and needed long-term hospitalization!
Yan Yueqing finally caught her breath, on one hand striving to recover, and on the other watching over her child.
She named her child Yan Wang.
Once, while Sister Li was on rounds, she saw her holding the little one, murmuring, "If only he could survive like you..."
Only then it was realized.
The name Wang, was from the phrase 'wishful thinking.'
"After Yan Yueqing's recovery and discharge from the hospital, Wangwang had to stay for continuous observation. At first she came every day, but later on I heard she was too unwell and rested at home for a while, and then she started making a scene to join the entertainment industry."
Sister Li frowned, "The Yan Family is the richest in city C! Even if she didn't make money, the old man could still afford her! You know, this VIP room for Wangwang was specially retained by the old man in communication with the head of the department, and it costs hundreds of thousands a month! I don't know what got into Yan Yueqing that made her insist on leaving the Yan Family."
Zhenzhen got a juicy scoop and urged eagerly, "And then, and then what happened?"
"After that, Yan Yueqing claimed to be the Second Miss of the Yan Family on a show, and the family immediately issued a statement to denounce it! I guess the old man wanted to force her to come back? I don't understand the affairs of rich families too well. Anyway... after that incident, Yan Yueqing fell out with her family! She also went from caring about Wangwang to being indifferent, even feeling that Wangwang's existence affected her career."
Zhenzhen had an epiphany, "I see! Sister Li, in a novel, Yan Yueqing would have been possessed by now, her body taken over by someone else! The person desperate to be in the entertainment industry isn't the real owner of the body! Of course, there's no affection for a child that isn't hers!"
Sister Li was amused by her wild imagination, "You really have a way with words! Trying to whitewash her, huh?"
Zhenzhen stuck out her tongue, "I just think, no one changes that quickly out of the blue!"
Sister Li sighed and her gaze fixated on the monitor, "Then I hope, that Yan Yueqing who is looking at the medical records now, is the real mother of Wangwang who has come back..."
