She abandoned her husband first, then her children, and was ecstatic after the divorce.

Chapter 190 Don't be afraid, I'll go to Jiangcheng with you.

"Good girl, Bell, get some rest. Don't worry about Mommy."

"Mom, I really feel much better, don't worry too much. Lingdang doesn't want Mom to miss work because of me." Lingdang blinked her big, watery eyes, her voice still a little weak, but it was full of sweetness.

Lingdang knew very well that her illness had caused her mother a lot of worry, so she tried her best to appear strong and not want her mother to worry any more.

Looking at her mother's slightly tired face, she felt a pang of heartache, thinking that if she could get better soon, her mother would have an easier time.

Lin Qingran leaned down slightly and placed a gentle kiss on Lingdang's forehead.

"Sweetie, even if Mommy stays with you, I still have time to work. Once you're completely better, Mommy will take you to the park, okay?"

A faint smile played on her lips, but the deep worry in her eyes was hard to completely dispel.

Lingdang excitedly lifted herself up slightly, "Really? Mom, I want to see the big fountain in the park!"

But this small movement aggravated the IV needle hole in her hand, and she couldn't help but hiss softly.

Lin Qingran's heart clenched, and she quickly pressed down on Lingdang's shoulders to make her lie down. "Lingdang, don't move around, be careful of the needle."

Her voice carried a hint of reproach, but even more so, it was filled with heartache. Lin Qingran carefully examined Lingdang's hand, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no bleeding from the needle marks.

She sat up straight again, gently squeezing the little hand holding the bell.

"Baby, just bear with it a little longer. Once you're better, we can play to our hearts' content."

Lingdang nodded obediently, "Mom, I understand. I will take good care of myself."

She secretly vowed to herself that she would get better soon so that her mother wouldn't have to suffer so much.

Just then, Lin Qingran's phone suddenly vibrated on the table next to her.

The buzzing sound seemed particularly jarring in the quiet hospital room.

Lin Qingran picked up her phone and saw that the caller ID showed Lu Anshi. A strange unease welled up in her heart.

She gently bit her lip, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, and her fingers trembled slightly as she swiped to answer the call.

"Hey, Lu An, what's wrong?"

Lin Qingran tried her best to keep her voice steady, but her heart was beating faster than usual.

On the other end of the phone, Lu An's voice was heavy and urgent.

"Miss Jiang, something terrible has happened! President Fu is unconscious, and Xingze... Young Master Xingze has also been taken into custody by the Jiangcheng police for kidnapping Lin Yuyan!"

Lin Qingran froze, her phone nearly slipping from her hand.

"What's going on?" Lin Qingran asked anxiously.

"Tell me, tell me..." Lu An stammered, and it took him a while to muster the courage to tell the truth under Lin Qingran's urging.

"Young Master Xingze said that he wants to kill Lin Yuyan to avenge you."

Lin Qingran's eyes widened, filled with shock and disbelief. Her mouth opened slightly, but she couldn't speak for a long time.

Her face turned deathly pale instantly, her mind went blank, and only Lu An's words kept echoing in her ears.

In that instant, her thoughts seemed to be pulled back to the past.

Fu Xingze's adorable childhood image flashed before her eyes. The little boy always had a bright smile, calling "Mommy" in his sweet, childish voice, and following her around affectionately. He was her most cherished treasure.

But how did it come to this?

She simply couldn't reconcile that innocent child with a repeat offender.

"What...what did you say? How is this possible?"

Lin Qingran finally managed to find her voice, but it was trembling noticeably.

Her hands gripped the phone tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force.

“It’s true, Miss Jiang. I don’t want to believe it either, but that’s how it is. After rescuing the person, President Fu suddenly collapsed and is still in the emergency room at the hospital. His condition is not optimistic. As for Young Master Xingze, he… he really did this, and he really was taken away by the police.” Lu An’s tone was full of helplessness.

"President Fu is currently undergoing emergency treatment. You are the only one who can take care of Young Master Xingze."

Lin Qingran slowly stood up, her legs feeling weak. She staggered and had to hold onto the hospital bed to steady herself.

"Okay, I understand..." Lin Qingran replied, hung up the phone, and then had no more strength left.

Her eyes darted around, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

"What should I do? I need to go to Jiangcheng; I have to see them."

Lin Qingran muttered to herself, but her hesitation was quickly replaced by doubt.

She stopped in her tracks, clutched her head in her hands, and was caught in a fierce internal struggle.

She didn't know how to face Fu Xiuheng, let alone Fu Xingze, her son who had gone astray.

Bo Ye heard the commotion and came in. He was startled to see Lin Qingran looking so distraught. He quickly went over to her, gently took her shoulder, and asked with concern.

"Jiuge, what happened? Who called you just now?"

Lin Qingran raised her head and looked at Bo Ye, her eyes filled with helplessness.

She briefly recounted what had happened to Susukino, her voice trembling with tears.

"I really don't know what to do. I want to see them, but I'm also scared..."

Bo Ye gently embraced Lin Qingran, patted her back, and comforted her.

"Don't be afraid, Jiuge. I'll go to Jiangcheng with you. No matter what happens, we'll face it together."

Lin Qingran trembled slightly in Bo Ye's arms. She nodded, finally feeling a little more at ease.

Bo Ye released Lin Qingran, looked into her eyes, and said earnestly.

"Don't hesitate, let's pack our things and leave now. Time is of the essence, we need to get to Jiangcheng as soon as possible."

Lin Qingran took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

She turned to look at the bell on the hospital bed, her eyes filled with guilt and reluctance.

She walked to the bedside and gently stroked Lingdang's cheek again.

"Lingdang, Mommy has something urgent to take care of. You have to be a good girl and listen to the nurse. Grandpa will come to take care of you later. Wait for Mommy to come back, okay?"

Lingdang nodded sensibly, "Mom, you go ahead, I'll be good."

But a hint of unease and disappointment flickered in her little eyes. Bell was terrified; she didn't know what her mother was going to do, or if there would be any danger.

But she didn't want to put her mother in a difficult position, so she could only pretend to be calm.

Lin Qingran forced back her tears, turned around, and hurriedly left with Bo Ye, heading towards Jiangcheng.

These days, flights usually arrive in the afternoon. Seeing that Lin Qingran was in a real hurry, Bo Ye immediately made a decision and drove there directly.

Throughout the journey, Lin Qingran stared blankly at the scenery rushing past the car window.

How could things have suddenly turned out this way?

Fu Xingze came to the hospital just a few days ago, so why did he suddenly go to Jiangcheng?

Did they even kidnap Lin Yuyan?
