Chapter 667
Chapter 667: Chapter 659: If You Don’t Like It, You Can Leave Chapter 667: Chapter 659: If You Don’t Like It, You Can Leave He truly couldn’t fathom why, but he was smart enough not to speak, only to act.
He chortled, carefully not mentioning Sang Zhilan, then made a sweeping gesture.
“I’m giving you the day off today.
It’s perfect, there are quite a few unoccupied rooms in your place, so you can take them there.
If you were still living in the hospital dormitory, I would have a headache.”
Director Zhu said cheerfully.
His mood had been excellent lately, solely because the hospital was running so smoothly and had saved many critical patients.
His hospital had been commended, and there were talks of supporting them with some state-of-the-art imported medical equipment—at no cost!
Their military hospital’s teaching staff was about to become even stronger.
Of course, he was also confident that in the days to come, their hospital would rise yet another level.
As Director Zhu reveled in his thoughts and let his imagination run wild, he failed to notice the displeasure on Tang Yuxin’s face, nor the unsavory expressions of the mother and daughter.
Sang Zhilan felt too awkward to meet anyone’s gaze, while Wei Jiani turned her face away in disregard.
One couldn’t tell what she was thinking, but her indifferent expression seemed to say that at this moment, in this place, she felt aggrieved.
After all, as a queen like her, she should be amidst banquets, presents, and lights—commanding the attention and being the center of focus for the entire room.

Tang Yuxin opened the door and entered, with Sang Zhilan and Wei Jiani following behind.
She hadn’t invited the mother and daughter in, but they entered uninvited nonetheless.
Last time they gave notice, this time they simply barged right in—their audacity was truly boundless.
“Tang Yuxin, what is the meaning of this?”
Wei Jiani tossed her suitcase aside, having felt irritation building up the whole way there, and now, fueled by Tang Yuxin’s lukewarm attitude, her mood soured instantly.
Sang Zhilan hurriedly made faces at Wei Jiani, but Wei Jiani acted as if she was stricken with temporary blindness and didn’t see it at all.
“If you can’t stand it, feel free to leave,” Tang Yuxin turned around and sat down on an outside chair with a calm and icy stare at the mother and daughter.
No one had invited them, nor did anyone ask them to stay.
If they wanted to go, they could just go; she wouldn’t bother to see them out.
They could return the same way they came, or they could just roll back the way they came.
“Mom, let’s go,” Wei Jiani had not learned much over the years, but her temper had certainly grown.
She had never suffered such indignity before, and naturally, her high pride couldn’t withstand this cold treatment.
Sang Zhilan grabbed Wei Jiani at once and made a face at her again.
Wei Jiani huffed and stood still.
Of course, her eyes kept darting around, assessing the place in front of them that resembled an ancient courtyard.
To call it a courtyard was an understatement; it was essentially a small park, especially with trees so old, some seemed a century old.
Tang Yuxin must have incredible luck to live in such a splendid house.
Such a house, how could Tang Yuxin, a country girl, deserve it?
If anyone should reside there, it should be her, Wei Jiani.
“Mom, I want to live in that room,”
Wei Jiani picked a room out for herself and headed towards it, dragging her suitcase.
Sang Zhilan patted her daughter’s hair, “Alright, alright, you can stay wherever you want.
With so many rooms here, it’s more than enough for you.
Don’t worry, settle down here for a few days, and in a little while, mom and dad will come to stay with you.”
“Mom, you’re the best.”
Wei Jiani clung to Sang Zhilan’s arm coquettishly for a long time before finally entering the room with joy.
By the time she entered, she realized the house had everything, indeed a unique detached villa-like property.
Mmm, not bad, fitting for her current status.
If she had to live in the hospital dormitory, she wouldn’t want it at all.
Sang Zhilan watched her daughter go in with a smile, but when she turned back, she was met with Tang Yuxin’s eyes, icy to the extreme.
“About that, Yuxin…”
She awkwardly stroked her hair, “Mum had no choice; since you have so many rooms here, let your sister stay for a few days.”
“A few days?”
Tang Yuxin asked indifferently, showing not a trace of affection towards Sang Zhilan.
Sang Zhilan could no longer maintain her smile.
“Yuxin, no matter what, she’s your sister.
In the future, once we’re gone, you will need to support each other,” Sang Zhilan continued with these unconvincing, insincere words.
In her previous life, she had used this line to deceive Tang Yuxin every day, yet in the end, she hadn’t died, but Tang Yuxin did.
Tang Yuxin propped her face on the table, her half-closed eyes brimming with mockery, “My brother and my sister both have the Tang surname, not born of others.”
That remark, “not born of others,” made Sang Zhilan’s face instantly flush with heat.
“Yuxin, is this house yours?”
Sang Zhilan once again surveyed the house before her, a hint of something extra in her eyes, and she aggressively sidestepped the previous topic.
“It was given by someone else.”
Tang Yuxin glanced at the room Wei Jiani was occupying, her lips pressed tightly.
They really were treating it like their own home, so ungracious.
“Given by someone else?” Upon hearing this, Sang Zhilan’s already embarrassed face became even more downcast.

“Yuxin, as a young woman, you should have some self-respect.
How could someone just give you such a nice place?
What did you do?”
She was holding back from calling her shameless.
At that moment, her indignation and questioning seemed like that of a mother, though such a mother was not cherished by Tang Yuxin.
“Yuxin, what does the person who gave you the house mean?
What does he want?
What’s his motive?”
Sang Zhilan questioned sharply, with a demeanor of disappointed strictness.
Just as she was about to further interrogate with righteous indignation, Tang Yuxin stood up, turned around, and walked away, showing no desire to engage in further conversation with Sang Zhilan.
Sang Zhilan was once again left humiliated, glaring hatefully at Tang Yuxin.
She truly regretted ever giving birth to this daughter who seemed to exist only to oppose her.
From childhood to adulthood, she had done nothing but harm her.
If it weren’t for her, she wouldn’t have had such a hard time at the Wei Family, tending to the young and the old, without anyone to help.
Of course, the main reason was that the Tang Family’s fortune was improving by the day, Tang Zhinian had married a young and capable woman, and had a late-in-life child.
And her?
She was stuck in a lifetime job, earning meager money, and Wei Tian was the same, earning a pittance and struggling on.
