Yuan Xueshan was startled by Shi Jiajun’s cold gaze, suddenly realizing she had to look for someone. She hurriedly ran out of the hospital, frantically searching everywhere. As the night grew darker, she grew more anxious, realizing her elderly mother-in-law, with a broken leg and all alone, must be coping with difficulties!
If she really lost her mother-in-law, she didn’t dare to imagine the consequences.
Her husband and son had always treated her well. However, she knew her seemingly prominent status in the family was far inferior to that of her mother-in-law.
If anything happened to her mother-in-law, their family would be ruined, and so would her life.
“Is anyone there? Is anyone there?” She called out loudly in the streets, knocked on the neighbors’ doors, asking for help in the search. But when she explained the situation, she was met with a disdainful eye roll.
“You lost your mother-in-law? Why don’t you go lose your adopted daughter instead?” followed by the slamming of the door in Yuan Xueshan’s face.
Yuan Xueshan felt as if she had been slapped harshly, her face burning hot. Being a respected principal’s wife, she had never dreamt she would be shut out one day.
But now, dignity didn’t matter. What mattered was finding her mother-in-law. She nervously knocked on the next-door neighbor’s door, only to remember this family always had a conflict with her.
“Oh my, isn’t this the lofty principal’s wife?” The middle-aged woman crossed her arms and sneered, “What brings you here? You’re not coming to ask me for a favor, are you?”
Yuan Xueshan stood on the doorstep, her face going from pale to red, but she couldn’t utter a word.
She had always known this woman gossiped a lot, loved to nitpick, and liked to show off. She was usually too lazy to deal with her. But now… it was as if she was slapping herself in the face.
