Chapter 104: Chapter 104 Cheng Zhiwei, Do You Have No Spine Left?

Meng Qiancheng didn’t want to waste time here and headed toward the ward.

Zhou Lin simply signaled with his eyes, and immediately two bodyguards blocked the door.

Meng Qiancheng turned his head in anger, his eyes narrowing, and said in a cold voice, "Zhou Lin, what else do you want to do to her? Do you really want to drive her to death?"

Zhou Lin walked over at a leisurely pace. Lin Yu frowned and reached out to stop him, "Zhou Lin, that’s enough."

Zhou Lin looked at Lin Yu, somewhat surprised, and spoke in a measured tone, "Do you also think he should take Cheng Zhiwei away?"

Lin Yu looked at him indifferently, "Stop fighting."

Even though Zhou Lin was in the wrong, she wouldn’t tear down her own son’s facade at this moment.

Zhou Lin stood still, his tall figure naturally relaxing, all emotions retreating from his stern handsome face, "Meng Qiancheng, Cheng Zhiwei is still my wife for now, and I am in charge of her treatment."

Meng Qiancheng clenched the doorknob tightly, "Zhou Lin, you are truly disgusting."

Zhou Lin wasn’t angry, adopting the demeanor of the man of the house, "You can go in and see her if you want, but don’t even think about transferring her to another hospital."

Meng Qiancheng just gave a cold snort and entered the ward.

Lin Yu glanced at Zhou Lin and followed inside.

Cheng Zhiwei had already woken up, and she heard every word of the argument outside without missing a letter, but she just stared at the ceiling, her expression indifferent.

Zhou Lin was just that kind of person, and she had learned profoundly not to have any expectations anymore.

"Weiwei," Meng Qiancheng called out tenderly, his eyes reddening with concern, "Are you alright?"

Cheng Zhiwei turned her head, her eyes devoid of sadness or joy, indifferent as if nothing had happened at all.

But it was precisely this demeanor that made one can’t help but worry. In the face of such events, weeping in grief or throwing a tantrum would be a normal reaction; her quietness was very abnormal.

"Weiwei, I’m right here," Meng Qiancheng said as he reached out to touch her hair.

Cheng Zhiwei shrank back slightly, dodging his touch.

A flicker of fear traced through her undisturbed eyes.

That kind of subconscious reaction was heart-wrenching.

Meng Qiancheng quickly retracted his hand, softly comforting her, "Don’t be afraid, I won’t touch you."

He sat by the bed and asked softly, "Weiwei, shall I help you to transfer to another hospital? I will take care of you there, is that okay?"

Cheng Zhiwei stared blankly at the IV drip, neither agreeing nor refusing. In fact, she showed no intention of speaking at all.

"Weiwei," Meng Qiancheng was extremely heartbroken, his eyes revealing a remorse that others couldn’t understand. He wanted to hold Cheng Zhiwei’s hand, but was afraid of startling her, so he could only restrain himself and clenched his fist.

"Qiancheng, I will stay here with Zhiwei, don’t worry," Lin Yu said.

Meng Qiancheng was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly asked, "Madam Zhou, knowing how unhappy Zhiwei has been in her marriage these years and what a bastard Zhou Lin is, why don’t you persuade your son to let her go?"

His light tone held immense resentment.

Lin Yu was taken aback.

"Just because she is not your daughter, can you just ignore this?" Meng Qiancheng continued to challenge, looking up at Lin Yu, "Treating her like this, don’t you feel guilty?"

"I..." Lin Yu was speechless, not knowing how to explain.

As an elder, she still hoped that Cheng Zhiwei and Zhou Lin could live a happy life together, so she had always been trying to matchmake them. Besides, deep down, she thought that since Cheng Zhiwei was Zhou Lin’s woman, she naturally belonged to the Zhou family.

She never expected such a thing to happen.

"Madam Zhou, Weiwei has been cherished and grown up in the palm of a hand too. How can your family bully her like this? You..." Meng Qiancheng spoke faster and faster, seemingly venting the displeasure he had encountered at Zhou Lin’s.

"Brother Qiancheng," a hoarse voice interrupted.

Cheng Zhiwei turned her gaze towards Meng Qiancheng, "Thank you for coming to see me, I want to rest. Can you go out?"

Meng Qiancheng was stunned, he could tell that Cheng Zhiwei was speaking out to protect Lin Yu.

A fire burning in his heart, Meng Qiancheng stared at Cheng Zhiwei, his warm expression turning cold, "Weiwei, do you want to leave with me?"

Cheng Zhiwei coughed weakly, "Brother Qiancheng, I want to rest."

She still rejected him.

Meng Qiancheng frowned, "Weiwei, can’t you see? Zhou Lin doesn’t like you at all. If it wasn’t for his indulgence, how could you possibly have been..."

He calmed his emotions before continuing, "Zhou Lin is a selfish bastard, he doesn’t deserve you."

Cheng Zhiwei actually hadn’t thought that much. She just felt really tired now, really just wanted to lie still, not thinking about anything, not asking anything.

If possible, she hoped there was no one in the room.

She wanted peace.

But Meng Qiancheng misunderstood her, scolding with vexation, "Cheng Zhiwei, do you have any backbone at all?"

Even now, she was still thinking of Zhou Lin.

Lin Yu was startled, she persuaded, "Qiancheng, let’s talk about this matter in a few days. Let’s let Zhiwei rest properly for now. Once she’s rested, we can ask her intentions."

She could see that Cheng Zhiwei was extremely vulnerable and in poor spirits.

Meng Qiancheng got up, his tone stern, "Cheng Zhiwei, it was a mistake to have fallen for him from the start. Do you want to continue this mistake? Haven’t you seen how your recklessness has affected so many people?"

Affected... so many people?

Cheng Zhiwei’s lips parted slightly, her eyelashes trembling gently. The placid emotions finally rippled. She certainly knew that she had affected many people, Meng Qiancheng included.

But what could she do now? Could she leave if she wanted to?

Zhou Lin’s hold on her neck forced her to obey. Did she dare not to?

Marrying Zhou Lin was her mistake, but she was already trying to make amends, trying to obey, trying to protect the people she cared about. Why were they still pressing her?

"The things that man did to you, you know to whom you owe it. If you’ve forgotten, just look at the wounds on your body and try to remember," Meng Qiancheng, losing his temper, spoke without restraint.

Cheng Zhiwei closed her eyes as tears slid from the corners. She knew what had happened to her.

Now lying here quietly, she forced herself not to think about the terrible things that happened to her. But they had to keep reminding her, word for word, what she had gone through.

In their eyes, was she really that useless, that frail, or even just a burden...?

"Enough, don’t agitate her anymore," Lin Yu said, her voice cooling.

"What sort of agitation is this? I just hope she can be clear-headed and not continue down this deluded path. Staying by Zhou Lin’s side, such incidents will only be more frequent, or are you saying that for Zhou Lin, you’re willing?" Meng Qiancheng said harshly.

"Meng Qiancheng, shut your mouth," Xu Tian burst into the room with a furious momentum, pushing Meng Qiancheng aside.
