Zhang Bin's lips trembled non-stop as he stammered, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! There must be an issue with your investigation results."
Su Nian rolled her eyes at him and shamelessly exposed him, "If you think we're lying, you can always take your son to the hospital for another check-up. I advise you to get to the bottom of the truth as soon as possible, otherwise, don't be sold and still count money for others, doing things against your conscience."
Zhang Bin's head buzzed. He heard only half of Su Nian's words, the other half going in one ear and out the other.
Chen Lishu noticed Zhang Bin's state was not quite right. She picked up her bag and stood up, leaving a parting remark: "I'll give you time to investigate the truth. Go back home. Come to the company to find me when you've come to your senses!" With that, she left the hotel with Su Nian.
As soon as Chen Lishu left, Zhang Bin, lost and dejected, also left the private room. In a daze, he hailed a taxi and returned home. Pushing open the door, the sound of cartoons playing on the television was exceptionally loud, with various snacks placed beside it.
Zhang Bin, suppressing his anger, walked up to Wei Xiaohua and questioned her sternly, "Leilei needs nutrition the most when he's sick. You feed him this junk food all the time? How can you be a mother!"
Wei Xiaohua looked at Zhang Bin's outburst and found it somewhat inexplicable. She replied nonchalantly, "What can I do if the child doesn't like to eat and only likes these snacks? I can't possibly not give him anything to eat and let him starve to death, can I?"
"Wei Xiaohua!" Zhang Bin took a deep breath, suppressing his anger. He scooped up Leilei and said, his voice relatively gentle, "Dad will take you to the hospital for a follow-up check now to see if the condition has worsened."
What? Go to the hospital?
Hearing this, Wei Xiaohua immediately panicked. She quickly got up and snatched Leilei from him, saying, "I already took the child to the hospital for a check-up this afternoon, and the results are still the same. I brought the report back, you can look at it! There's no need to go through all this trouble. The child just got home, and he should be resting well now. Prolonged travel is difficult for him."
Zhang Bin lowered the complexity in his eyes and asked coldly, "As a father, Leilei is sick now, but I've never accompanied him to the hospital. Tell me, when is his next check-up? I'll accompany you and our son then."
Wei Xiaohua felt that Zhang Bin's attitude today was somewhat different. Could it be that he had discovered the truth? But it shouldn't be. She had been quite successful in her pretense these past few days, and Zhang Bin was working at Xinxin Group, where everyone was on her side. Logically, no news should have reached his ears.
Seeing Wei Xiaohua's prolonged silence, Zhang Bin assumed she was feeling guilty. He then sneered, "We've earned quite a bit of money these past few days. I plan to send the child abroad for early treatment. We'll depart tomorrow."
"No!" Hearing this, Wei Xiaohua finally couldn't hold back. Like a shrew, her face contorted as she grabbed Zhang Bin's shoulders and said, "The child's condition is not very good. Leaving tomorrow is too sudden. At the very least, we need to wait for the hospital to do a full-body examination and confirm everything is fine before he can travel by plane!"
Zhang Bin opened his mouth and replied, "Alright, then we'll go to the hospital for a full-body examination tomorrow. I'll accompany you and our son."
Wei Xiaohua rubbed her forehead with her hand, feeling a headache coming on. She realized she was being led further astray. Why were they going for an examination tomorrow, and he was accompanying them? If they went to the hospital, wouldn't all her lies from the past few days be exposed?
Thinking of this, Wei Xiaohua immediately said, "Tomorrow..."
"Tomorrow, you don't happen to have other things to do, do you, Wei Xiaohua? Why are you so resistant to going to the hospital? Or are you hiding something from me?" Zhang Bin's scrutinizing gaze swept over Wei Xiaohua.
Wei Xiaohua's heart skipped a beat. Since soft tactics wouldn't work, she had to resort to harder ones. She put her hands on her hips, instantly adopting a shrewish demeanor, and gritted her teeth, saying, "Did you hear something you shouldn't have? Why are you going against me all day today? Leilei is critically ill and needs money the most right now. You need to work hard at the company and earn money for his medical expenses. Leave the hospital visits to me. I don't want you to be too tired. Don't forget, you are the pillar of this family. Enough, I don't want to argue with you about this. Leilei goes to the hospital once a week. We've already been once this week, going again is just a waste of money! Remember, the special medicine and examination fees are not a small sum."
"You're still lying to me even now!"
Zhang Bin's eyes instantly turned red. He then threw all the evidence Chen Lishu had given him at Wei Xiaohua, grinding his teeth and saying, "Take a good look at these photos. Do they look familiar to you? You told me you've been going to the hospital for check-ups all these days, so can you explain to me who these people in the photos are? I initially thought you wouldn't do something so excessive, but after a day of testing when I got back, the results are truly disappointing!"
Wei Xiaohua's right eyelid twitched violently. Looking at the scattered photos, a sense of foreboding rose in her heart. She casually picked up the closest one to her. When she saw a photo of herself happily playing with Leilei in an amusement park, her mind went blank. She opened her mouth and, in a flustered tone, explained, "Leilei wasn't feeling well and wasn't cooperating with the medical staff at the hospital, so I had no choice but to take him downstairs for a stroll. Where did you get these photos from? Do you trust a stranger more than me, your wife of over ten years? Zhang Bin!"
Faced with Wei Xiaohua's accusations, Zhang Bin's attitude remained cold as he said, "Don't be unreasonable now. Since these photos are fake, it's simple. Go to the hospital tomorrow for Leilei's full-body examination, and all these rumors will be debunked, won't they?"
"Zhang Bin! I'll fight you! If you trust outsiders that much, fine! After the examination tomorrow, we'll get a divorce. I won't live with someone who can't even give me basic trust. Think it over yourself."
Wei Xiaohua thought that by making such a scene, Zhang Bin would at least be more subdued and wouldn't mention going to the hospital. However, she had underestimated Zhang Bin's persistence on this matter.
Zhang Bin coldly stated, "We're going for the examination tomorrow. If the results show I'm wrong, I will compensate you."
