Chapter 85.2 : Fear Only Toward Tang Qingmo (Part 2)
Tang Xianxi and the rest of the Tang family members standing nearby all found her sudden change strange.
Just moments ago, she hadn't even been able to recognize them, yet the moment Tang Qingmo entered the room, she kept apologizing nonstop!
The Tang family couldn't help but turn their gazes toward Tang Qingmo, wanting to know what had triggered Tang Xuerong's drastic change…
"Brother, I didn't expect Fifth Sister to become like this the moment you walked in…" Tang Xianxi seized the opportunity, sounding concerned on the surface while subtly mocking him underneath.
He was implying that Tang Qingmo was clearly unwelcome in front of Tang Xuerong.
When they had entered the ward earlier, even though Tang Xuerong hadn't recognized them, she hadn't reacted so violently!
Could it be that Tang Qingmo actually—
"Isn't that only natural?" However, facing the crowd's questioning looks, Tang Qingmo let out a cold laugh instead.
"I'm not like you, who's 'loved' by Fifth Sister every single day. Ever since I came back, all I've gotten daily is scolding and beatings."
"Now that her brain has suffered trauma, she might just be venting all the guilt she feels toward me."
Tang Qingmo deliberately emphasized the word "loved", making everyone present recall Tang Xuerong's infatuation with Tang Xianxi!
Standing to the side, Chen Biantai nodded in agreement. "That's indeed possible."
"When a person's brain undergoes severe stimulation, it may begin to repent for things done in the past."
Tang Qingmo waved his hand lightly. "No help for it. I'm different from the fake younger brother who's 'loved.' But who would've thought that Fifth Sister, who loves the fake brother so deeply, would actually feel remorse toward me? Shouldn't I be happy about that?"
The Tang family members: ...
Tang Xianxi lowered his head in humiliation.
This bastard Tang Qingmo kept bringing up Tang Xuerong's feelings for him in front of outsiders, making everyone's expressions turn ugly. Even Doctor Chen's gaze toward him had become strange!
He really wanted to sew that mouth of his shut!
"Enough. How is Xuerong now? When can she recover?"
Tang Jianren no longer wanted to deal with Tang Xianxi and the others. He frowned and looked at Chen Biantai.
"I'll conduct a full brain examination for Miss Xuerong. If we're lucky, she may gradually recover after about three months of rest. But if her nerves become disordered again…"
"Become disordered again?"
"Then the condition may last much longer…"
Chen Biantai lowered his head, looking deeply remorseful.
"My poor Xuerong… Your elder sister is already like that—why did even you…" Bai Hualian immediately became distraught upon hearing the bad news, nearly fainting as warm tears slid down the corners of her eyes.
Tang Ruoling hurried over to support her.
"..." Tang Jianren, meanwhile, furrowed his brows tightly.
"No… no! Please let me go! I was wrong!"
Watching Tang Xuerong still filled with terror toward Tang Qingmo and loudly begging for mercy, his irritation instantly flared!
She had always been the one who bullied and humiliated Tang Qingmo the most—so why was she suddenly repenting now?
It was utterly baffling!
"Doctor Chen, I don't care what method you use—cure her for me!"
Although Tang Xuerong had been shelved as a celebrity, she still held value as a Tang family daughter.
If possible, Tang Jianren didn't want to give up on her yet!
"I'll do my best."
After a brief exchange, Tang Jianren no longer wished to stay.
After casually saying a few words to Tang Aili, he prepared to leave with the dejected Bai Hualian and the others.
Before leaving, Tang Xianxi once again put on the act of a good younger brother. He walked over to Tang Xuerong and said, "Fifth Sister, get some good rest. I'll come see you again later."
Although Tang Xuerong couldn't recognize Tang Xianxi either, perhaps because he looked familiar, she gazed at him timidly.
But before she could look for long, Tang Ruoling called him away. "Xiaoxi, let's go."
"Okay, Big Sister!"
Tang Xianxi immediately turned around, his figure disappearing from Tang Xuerong's sight.
Yet just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head toward Tang Qingmo standing nearby. "Brother, are you coming back with us?"
Earlier, Tang Qingmo hadn't been at the Tang residence, so they had come separately.
Tang Qingmo smiled faintly. "Don't you usually leave without me? Why ask now?"
