The nurse naturally recognized Yan Xi and pointed to a corner not far away.
Yan Xi looked in the direction the nurse pointed and saw Yan Yi lying on a single bed in the corridor.
In that instant, anger surged through her entire body.
Yan Xi walked up to Yan Yi, looking at her brother with heartache, the anger in her eyes unable to be hidden.
Yan Yi saw his sister and smiled, saying, "Sister, why are you here?"
"When did you move out of the ward?"
Yan Xi didn't answer Yan Yi's question, asking her own.
"Sister, it's fine. The corridor is good too, well-ventilated. The air in the ward is stagnant and stuffy."
Yan Yi was worried that his sister would go back to their parents. For him, his sister was his only relative. As for his parents, Yan Yi only regarded them as strangers.
He didn't want his only relative to cause trouble with them over his affairs, so Yan Yi had been trying to persuade Yan Xi.
Yan Xi paid for Yan Yi, and Yan Yi returned to the ward.
Yan Yi lay on the hospital bed, and the doctor examined him. Half an hour later, the doctor said to Yan Xi, "Miss Yan, your brother's kidney failure is already very serious. If he doesn't have a kidney transplant soon, he only has three months to live."
Yan Xi's legs went weak, and she stumbled back two steps. Suddenly, a pair of broad hands held her up, preventing her from falling.
"Thank..." Thank you, Yan Xi hadn't finished speaking when she turned and saw the man's face. She was choked with emotion.
Although he was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, it was hard for people to recognize who he was.
But those eyes, filled with animosity, made Yan Xi recognize him at a glance.
And the faint smell of disinfectant on him made Yan Xi even more certain that the man in front of her was her newlywed husband, Fu Yanting.
"Why are you here?" Yan Xi couldn't help but ask.
Fu Yanting looked at Yan Xi with an unfathomable gaze, but did not respond.
Leaving the hospital, a strong breeze blew, and Yan Xi took a deep breath. She looked at Fu Yanting and saw him following her, showing no signs of leaving first.
Yan Xi said, "Fu Yanting, why don't you go home first? I still have some things to attend to."
At this moment, the bodyguard drove the car over. Fu Yanting got into the car first. Yan Xi stood there, conflicted. What did Fu Yanting mean?
Yan Xi stood in front of the car, refusing to get in, which made Fu Yanting somewhat angry.
The bodyguard said expressionlessly, "Young Madam, please get in the car."
Yan Xi got into the car, and the bodyguard drove away.
"Where to?"
Inside the car, Fu Yanting broke the silence with a bland tone.
Yan Xi was slightly stunned, realizing that Fu Yanting was asking her.
"Imperial Scenery Bay, Phase III Villa."
Fu Yanting closed his eyes and began to rest.
Before long, the car arrived at the Imperial Scenery Bay villa complex. Yan Xi got out of the car and walked towards the Yan family home.
"Follow her."
Fu Yanting ordered.
These two bodyguards were Fu Yanting's men. They knew that their boss was afraid that the young madam would be bullied by the Yan family and had sent them to protect her.
The door to the Yan family home had a fingerprint lock. She placed her fingerprint on it, but the verification failed.
Yan Xi then entered the password, but the password input was incorrect.
Yan Xi knew that they had changed the password for the door lock.
Yan Xi did not expect her parents to be so decisive.
Ignoring her feelings, they forced her to marry Fu Yanting, took the betrothal gifts from the Fu family, and refused to pay Yan Yi's hospital fees, causing him to be kicked out of the ward and forced to live in the corridor. Thinking of this, Yan Xi clenched her fists tightly, veins bulging.
She knocked forcefully on the door. A servant opened it. Seeing Yan Xi, the servant was first stunned, then asked, "Eldest Miss, you... why are you back?"
"Where are Yan Jiapeng and Kong Yalan?" Yan Xi asked coldly.
She didn't call them parents because, in Yan Xi's heart, they didn't deserve it.
This was the first time Yan Xi had called them by their names, which showed how angry Yan Xi was.
"Master is in the study. Madam and Miss went shopping and haven't returned yet."
The servant answered truthfully.
Yan Xi strode past the servant and entered the house.
Hearing the commotion outside, Yan Jiapeng walked out of the study and saw Yan Xi. Yan Jiapeng was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Xixi, why are you back today?"
Didn't she say she would only return to her maiden home on the third day after her marriage? It was only the second day, so why was she back so soon?
Seeing how angry she was, was she bullied at the Fu family's place?
That wouldn't do. He had already told those partners that he was in-laws with the Fu family, and recently he had used the Fu family to successfully negotiate several projects. If Yan Xi came back like this, what would the Fu family do if they got angry?
Yan Jiapeng stepped forward, looked at Yan Xi, and said with earnest persuasion, "Xixi, have you and Mr. Fu had any unpleasantness?"
"You know his situation very well. Do you think I could have any unpleasantness with him?"
Yan Xi didn't want to see Yan Jiapeng's hypocritical face. She directly stated the purpose of her return.
"How much betrothal money did you receive for marrying me to Fu Yanting?"
"O-One million," Yan Jiapeng's eyes darted away, not daring to meet Yan Xi's gaze, and he responded softly.
Just then, Kong Yalan returned with Yan Xiao, laden with bags of luxury goods.
Thinking of her brother's situation in the hospital, their actions were truly outrageous.
"Yan Xi, why are you back? Shouldn't you be at the Fu family's taking care of your comatose husband?"
Upon seeing Yan Xi, Yan Xiao said with a sarcastic tone.
If it weren't for Fu Yanting's accident and becoming a vegetative state, the position of Young Madam of the Fu family would never have been hers.
Slap!
Yan Xi raised her hand and slapped Yan Xiao. A palm print immediately appeared on Yan Xiao's face. Losing her balance, she fell to the ground.
"Mom, this little b*tch hit me."
Yan Xiao cried pitifully, and Kong Yalan's heart ached at the sight of her daughter being hit.
Looking at Yan Xi, Kong Yalan yelled angrily, "Yan Xi, what are you doing? Your sister was just concerned about you."
"I want you to transfer every cent of the betrothal money from the Fu family to me."
Kong Yalan's eyes widened in disbelief. That was ten million yuan. Yan Xi, this little b*tch, was making such an outrageous demand.
If it weren't for them, could she have become the Young Madam of the Fu family?
Now that she was married to Fu Yanting, she came back asking for the betrothal money. Her greed was simply too ugly.
"Yan Xi, don't push it. If it weren't for me and your father, could you have taken the position of Young Madam of the Fu family? People should know how to be grateful." Kong Yalan said coldly.
Yan Xi's eyes swept coldly over Kong Yalan, causing Kong Yalan's pupils to shrink in fear.
