Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 305 - 298: Motherly Love (Second Update)
Bai Yiran and Leng Yichen left Xiao Mei’s ward, and even from a distance they could hear the crying of Xiao Mei’s mother behind them. Because of that crying, Bai Yiran felt the genuine maternal love the mother had for Xiao Mei, and perhaps that same maternal love made Bai Yiran give up the idea of suing Xiao Mei; after all, losing her womb was already the most cruel punishment for her.
Moreover, when it comes to the child, Xu Juan definitely won’t let it rest. But all this was no longer Bai Yiran’s concern. She had done what she needed to do; hopefully, they are all satisfied with this outcome...
After a night of observation, Xiao Lang could be discharged. Having settled these matters, Bai Yiran went ahead and handled the discharge procedures for Xiao Lang. At the hospital entrance, Leng Yichen’s car was already parked there.
Seeing Bai Yiran leading Xiao Lang out, Leng Yichen opened the car door and came down, looking at her gently, "All taken care of?"
"Yes," Bai Yiran nodded, but felt a bit of guilt in her heart. After all, Xu Juan and Yu Bin were among the few relatives he had, and her actions today, setting aside Xu Juan, would likely cause a rift between the two brothers in the future. "I’m sorry for not informing you beforehand and asking Li Sha to help investigate Xiao Mei. You and Yu Bin..."
A look full of tenderness appeared in Leng Yichen’s eyes as he tousled Bai Yiran’s hair, "No need to apologize; to me, you are what matters most."
His words moved Bai Yiran, and Xiao Lang tugged at Bai Yiran’s hand, speaking in a childlike voice, "I’m important too~"
Both Bai Yiran and Leng Yichen burst into laughter instantly. Leng Yichen bent down to pick up Xiao Lang, tapping his nose, "Yes, you are important too!"
Initially, Bai Yiran was indeed worried that Leng Yichen might not like Xiao Lang, but seeing how harmoniously the two interacted now, they truly seemed like father and son.
In truth, Bai Yiran knew that deep down, Leng Yichen still wanted his own child...
In the car, Xiao Lang fell asleep leaning against Bai Yiran, and Leng Yichen gazed at Bai Yiran’s unchanged face and curiously asked, "But I’m really curious, what prompted you to investigate Xiao Mei?"
Bai Yiran smiled at Leng Yichen.
If one had to pinpoint the reason, it probably started from the first time Xiao Mei had stomach pains and was admitted to the hospital, and her mother’s reaction then. Even Xu Juan was extremely anxious at the time, yet her mother appeared rather carefree; this was quite against norms. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Either, Xiao Mei’s mother simply didn’t love Xiao Mei, or there was something inherently wrong with Xiao Mei’s child.
Perhaps in other matters, Bai Yiran’s reaction wouldn’t be so prompt, or she might not bother with them at all. But when it comes to matters involving children, Bai Yiran becomes particularly sensitive. She had lost a child before and could resonate deeply with a mother’s feelings, not to mention being extremely anxious even when Xiao Lang was injured. Thus, Xiao Mei’s mother’s carefree demeanor was definitely problematic.
Since the last explosion incident, Li Sha had been recuperating at home. Seeing how effectively she managed Xiao Mei’s issue this time, Leng Yichen kept her on for a while longer. However, since Bai Yiran truly didn’t need a driver, Li Sha temporarily helped Leng Yichen with his tasks, though she remains at Bai Yiran’s disposal whenever needed.
The matter with Xiao Mei was considered fully resolved. Li Sha mentioned afterward that Xu Juan had sought out Leng Yichen for help in confronting Xiao Mei’s parents, seeking accountability, after all the trouble, she and Yu Bin had been through for so long. Despite this, Leng Yichen didn’t involve himself in the matter and didn’t even meet with her.
