Chapter 1621: Where's Xingxing?!

The incident was far too sensational.

It got so big the police even showed up, and that very night the whole of Weibo had “Woman jumps off building after surviving car accident” pinned at the top of the trending list.

The comments underneath were pushing 36,000.

Everyone was fiercely debating it.

[So young, she survived a major car crash, basically got her life back—why would she still jump off a building? I don’t get it.]

[Suggest a thorough investigation. Did she take an unlicensed cab and jump off the building to protect herself?]

[The logic upstairs doesn’t hold. If it was a black cab she should’ve jumped out of the car, not gotten into an accident.]

[Stop talking nonsense, everyone. The dead deserve respect. Candle /]

[I’m a nurse at that hospital, and you’re all wrong. She was driving with her husband and kid on their way home. They’d just bought a house in City C. But the crash killed her husband on the spot. Maybe she was overwhelmingly grief-stricken and had serious post-accident complications, otherwise no one would choose to leave behind a daughter who’s only just turned one and commit suicide by jumping.]

Quite a few people saw this comment and left replies underneath expressing regret, pity, and lament.

However, the direction of public opinion shifted very quickly.

Some people accused the hospital of poor supervision—otherwise, how could they possibly let a woman who’d just been in a serious car accident climb up to the rooftop alone and jump?

Did the hospital bear inescapable responsibility?

The internet was in chaos, and the police issued a notice saying they had already launched an investigation.

Bai Zhi’er sat in Tang Qian’s ward, unusually quiet.

Fen Linxing sat beside his mother, seemingly engrossed in his iPad, but in fact hadn’t taken in a single thing.

Before long, Feng Fuce and Pei Luochuan came back.

Tang Qian quickly asked, “Did you figure it out? Why did she jump?”

A life had finally been saved—how could she be in such a rush to die?

Pei Luochuan naturally picked up Tang Qian’s water cup, took a big gulp, and only then said, catching his breath, “My friend at the station said Guan Xin’s mother confessed.”

“Confessed?” Bai Zhi’er was confused.

Fen Linxing lifted his head at once.

Pei Luochuan continued, “Her mother had always disapproved of her dating Su Lijun. Neither family supported them being together, so after the child was born, the two families rarely had any contact.”

“After Su Lijun died, Guan Xin’s mother felt it was the perfect chance to completely cut things off with the Su Family. But Guan Xin cared about the child—so long as Su Lijun’s child existed, she could never truly sever ties.”

“She was worried Guan Xin might end up keeping a lifelong widowhood for Su Lijun, so she lied and said the baby had died from severe injuries after the accident. Guan Xin probably never imagined her mother would deceive her about something like this, so in her despair she jumped.”

Bai Zhi’er trembled all over. “How can there be a mother like that?!”

She looked over at Feng Fuce.

Just now she’d told Feng Fuce to look around the area; a freshly dead soul wouldn’t be taken away by hell that quickly. If Guan Xin’s soul was still drifting nearby, Bai Zhi’er was willing to shoulder enormous pressure to bring her back to life.

However—

Feng Fuce shook his head. “Too late. Guan Xin is someone who killed herself before her allotted lifespan was up. Her soul is specially taken into custody by hell; the moment she died, her soul left her body.”

That being the case, Bai Zhi’er all the more could not break the rules for her.

Tang Qian thought of Guan Xin’s misery, dying just like that. If she knew her child was still alive, how much agony would she be in?

“Sigh, the kid’s still so little. And all the grandparents who are still alive don’t even like her. What’s going to happen to her in the future?”

Only one year old, and already lost both parents.

Bai Zhi’er sighed along with her.

Suddenly—

She realized her son, Fen Linxing, was no longer in the room?!

“Honey! Where’s Xingxing?”
