Chapter 2479: Chapter 2479

Her eyes suddenly brightened, and she rushed forward: "Sis, I’ve just finished applying the medicine. Let’s go out quickly."

"Xiaodi, do you trust me?" Yang Xiaona asked, holding her hand.

Yang Xiaodi looked at her in confusion: "I, of course, trust you, sis."

"Then let’s not go back just yet; you need to be hospitalized," Yang Xiaona said.

"Sis, I’m really fine, I’m in good health. There’s no need to spend money on the hospital..." Yang Xiaodi looked around, feeling more and more uneasy. She felt that in such a hospital, even if she were to be sold, it wouldn’t cover the cost of treatment.

"Xiaodi, listen to me; I have money now, we can get treatment. Trust me, okay?" Yang Xiaona looked pointedly at her emaciated figure, emotional stability slipping again.

Yang Xiaodi was still hesitant; she wanted to say something but seeing Yang Xiaona truly upset, she swallowed her words.

She thought, I’ll just stay for a day, to put my sister’s mind at ease, and once I’m sure I’m really okay, I’ll leave immediately.

Yang Xiaodi finally agreed silently, obediently following the nurse back to the ward. Yang Xiaona, unable to endure the strain, let Ruan Chi handle the admission procedures, while Jiaojiao accompanied Yang Xiaona outside the ward.

After convincing Yang Xiaodi to be hospitalized, Yang Xiaona said no more words, her eyes unconsciously fixed in one direction, seemingly lost in thought.

Jiaojiao now knew about Yang Xiaodi’s situation. Yang Xiaodi appeared to be about the same age as her, yet this youthful girl had suffered three miscarriages in just half a year, leaving her wilted, like a flower deprived of all vitality, truly heartbreaking.

Though Jiaojiao didn’t know Yang Xiaodi, as an outsider she felt deeply moved; how much more painful must it be for Yang Xiaona, her sister?

Jiaojiao, usually adept at comforting others, found herself at a loss for words this time.

Yang Xiaona sat woodenly for the entire journey until Ruan Chi completed all the procedures. He then came over, looking at the silent Yang Xiaona, reaching out to squeeze her hand.

Yang Xiaona lifted her gaze to him, and Ruan Chi softly said, "Don’t overthink. No matter what, you still have me, and we’ll face it together."

Yang Xiaona covered her teary eyes, resting her forehead on Ruan Chi’s shoulder, her voice trembling: "I’m scared... Little sister is still at home..."

Since discovering Yang Xiaodi’s situation, Yang Xiaona’s heart had sunk into despair. She didn’t even dare to ask Yang Xiaodi what had happened in the past six months, nor did she know the situation of the younger sister still at home. Especially now that Yang Xiaodi had stolen the household register, would her parents, with no one to vent their anger on, beat the younger sister?

Every time these thoughts crossed her mind, Yang Xiaona felt as if her heart were roasting over a fire.

"I’ve called back home and asked a friend for help. If necessary, they’ll bring the little sister out... But Xiaona, I didn’t discuss this with you, please don’t blame me for acting on my own accord." Ruan Chi patted Yang Xiaona’s shoulder, apologetically.

His specialty was law, frequently dealing with police and public security. On Yuansu’s side, he had many friends involved in these areas.

After learning of Yang Xiaodi’s situation, he immediately called home to ask friends to keep an eye out.

Because he knew better than anyone how difficult it was for girls under the preference for sons.
