Chapter 284: Mother’s Determination

Wu Mei’s face was pale as she looked at the IV drip hanging by the bedside. Li Nanchen reached out his hand. “Nanchen, my head is so dizzy and my eyes are a little blurry. I feel very uncomfortable.”

Li Nanchen rushed to her side and kissed her forehead. “I’ll go get the doctor. Wait for me.”

Wu Mei used her injured left hand to tug on Li Nanchen, who was about to leave. She immediately sucked in a breath of cold air from the pain. “Don’t go. I need comfort and care.”

Li Nanchen stared fixedly at Wu Mei. He still did not understand what she meant.

He knew that Wu Mei had gotten injured in order to save Mother Wu, but this anger was bottled up in his heart and made his heart ache. However, he could not blame Mother Wu. Wu Mei also knew that he was feeling uncomfortable and was actually using such a method to coax him.

Right now, because of Wu Mei’s words, his heart softened and he sat down beside her. He said softly, “Auntie is fine too. Wu Pang was sent to prison too. Everything has been resolved.”

How is that possible? There is still Mo Li.

But the atmosphere was just right, so Wu Mei didn’t want to break it.

She used her right hand to gently lift Li Nanchen’s chin. “Come closer.”

Li Nanchen could not help but laugh. He could only lean forward and gently kiss Wu Mei’s lips. Then, he straightened his body and said, “Sleep for a while.”

Wu Mei knew that Li Nanchen had other matters to attend to but she was reluctant to let him go. “Come back quickly.”

“Okay!” Li Nanchen looked at the weak Wu Mei. Although his heart ached for her, he felt that it was pretty nice.

It was rare for Wu Mei to show weakness.

Mother Wu knocked on the door and walked in. She asked softly, “How is Mei’er?”

“Mom, I’m fine,” Wu Mei replied immediately.

Li Nanchen reached out to hold her shoulders, signaling her to stop moving.

Mother Wu walked in. The first thing she saw was Wu Mei’s bandaged arm. She felt extremely guilty and even rubbed her hands helplessly.

“Auntie, I have something to deal with at the company,” Li Nanchen said.

Mother Wu nodded. “Go ahead. I’ll accompany Mei’er.”

Li Nanchen walked out of the ward. Wu Mei looked at the quiet Mother Wu and smiled. “Mom, I’m tired. Sleep with me for a while.”

Mother Wu was tired after being tormented for an entire day.

She carefully walked to the other side of the bed and sat on the bedside chair. She reached out and patted Wu Mei gently. “Go to sleep, child. When you wake up, you can deal with those miscellaneous matters. Everything will be in time.”

Wu Mei leaned towards Mother Wu and closed her eyes. A wave of exhaustion washed over her and she fell into a deep slumber.

Mother Wu yawned. When she saw her phone screen suddenly light up, she immediately picked up her phone and replied to a message.

The next morning, Wu Mei woke up but Mother Wu was still resting on the bed beside her.

She turned to Mother Wu and covered her with a thin blanket. Mother Wu did not want to go home alone and insisted on staying at the hospital to accompany her. Wu Mei could not persuade her to leave no matter what.

Wu Mei sighed and swiped her phone with her right hand. She saw the message that she was most concerned about.

“The police have successfully destroyed a drug gang.”

“During the arrest operation that day, the police seized… confessed to the crime of selling drugs.”

In the police statement, there was no mention of her and Li Nanchen’s meritorious performance, but that was only expected.

They needed to live a normal life, not be pushed into the public eye.

Wu Mei scrolled through her phone and finally saw the “insider information”.

This time, the content mentioned that Wu Mei and Mother Wu had helped the police catch the drug traffickers and performed meritorious deeds.

Wu Mei was particularly shocked about another piece of news.

The Wu Corporation made a statement and decided to donate money to medical institutions such as rehabilitation centers. At the same time, the police forwarded this statement.

She could guess what would happen next.

The crisis of the Wu Corporation would be resolved and they would even establish a positive image. The direction of public opinion would also be changed.

Did the shareholders and managers in the Corporation notice where the situation was headed and made the decision as soon as possible?

No, that can’t be.

If she was not wrong, Mother Wu was the reason why the Wu Corporation made such a decision.

The door to the ward was pushed open from the outside.

Seeing that Mother Wu was still resting, Li Nanchen immediately lightened his footsteps, afraid of waking her up.

Wu Mei blinked at him in anticipation.

Li Nanchen leaned close to her ear and said gently, “Auntie’s medical report is out. Everything is fine. You just need to rest. You can also settle the discharge procedures and go home to rest.”

This news was fantastic.

Wu Mei gave Li Nanchen a thumbs up.

Li Nanchen’s voice deepened as he said, “Also… there’s no news from K.”

In less than 72 hours, they had caught the drug dealer, disrupted the transaction, and arrested the buyer based on the statements. However, K seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

K did give them clues, and he lost a colleague in the process of following the suspect. There was no way he would give up.

K was probably in trouble.

“Make the arrangements after you’re discharged.” Li Nanchen did not say anything else and went to settle the discharge procedures for Wu Mei first.

When Mother Wu woke up, they packed up and went home together.

As soon as they entered, they heard that the Bi Fang had personally prepared medicinal cuisine for Wu Mei to nourish his brave junior sister.

Wu Mei rolled her eyes. What is there to nourish?

It was only later on that she learned that Mother Wu had deliberately brought only one bodyguard with her when she left. She did not inform Bi Fang, who should have been accompanying her.. Otherwise, she would definitely deal with Bi Fang.
