Qiu Mu-Cheng quickly led Ye Fan to the hospital ward for senior officials.
Inside the ward, the nurses were changing the IV drip for a patient while the woman lay in bed resting.
It was none other than Ye Fan's mother, Ye Xi-Mei.
Ye Xi-Mei seemed to have gotten a lot older than when he last saw her. There were a lot more wrinkles by the corners of her eyes now.
The moment she saw her son, she got off the bed excitedly.
"Madam Ye, you aren't well enough to move yet.” Two nurses were startled and swiftly ran over to stop Ye Xi-Mei from getting off the bed.
Ye Fan instantly frowned. He walked over to the bed as he asked worriedly, "Mum, what happened? Why are you unable to even stand? Also, why do you look so pale? What on earth happened to you?"
Ye Fan was beside himself with anxiety.
He recalled his mother was fine before he left.
Also, she was only in her forties and wasn't that old.
Why would his mother become so weak within a year and end up incapable of getting off the bed?
Ye Xi-Mei leaned against the headboard and shook her head as she smiled and calmed Ye Fan, "Fan, I'm fine. It's not as serious as the nurse says. I'll be fine after some bed rest. Why were you uncontactable for such a long time? Mu-Cheng and I were worried sick. Fortunately, you came back in one piece. Otherwise, what would become of us?"
Ye Xi-Mei grabbed Ye Fan's hand as she smiled in joy.
She was genuinely happy from the bottom of her heart.
Ye Fan meant everything to Ye Xi-Mei.
Now that her son was back safely, all the pain she suffered was worth it.
Nothing could make her happier than to see her son return safely.
Although Ye Fan nodded when he heard what Ye Xi-Mei said, a wave of anger rose in his heart.
Even though his mother made it sound like nothing, Ye Fan could sense his mother hiding something from him.
"No, Mum. You have to tell me what happened. Why would you get so badly injured out of the blue? If nothing happened, you wouldn't have to leave Yunzhou and the company behind to go into hiding here. Something must have happened. Mu-Cheng, tell me what happened,” said Ye Fan deeply with a look of anxiety and anger.
"Ye Fan, I...” Qiu Mu-Cheng clearly had reservations and didn't even dare to look at Ye Fan's eyes as she lowered her head and spoke hesitantly.
Before Ye Fan managed to go on asking, Ye Xi-Mei interrupted, "Enough. Stop asking. I was in a traffic accident. This has nothing to do with Mu-Cheng or anyone else, so stop asking her."
Ye Xi-Mei seemed somewhat angry as she told Ye Fan these words sternly.
"A traffic accident? Was it really an accident? Are you hiding something else from me?"
Ye Fan frowned somewhat suspiciously.
"I am your mother, and she is your wife. Why would we lie to you? Stop being so suspicious. From now on, just stop doing all this nonsense. You should focus on your family and business and start thinking about having a child. If you have a good and harmonious life, then I can stop worrying and sit back to enjoy life. Do you hear me? From now on, your family is the top priority. Neither Mu-Cheng, Jiangdong, or myself can take it if you go missing again. Can you just lead a calm and peaceful life from now on? I don't need you to bring glory to the family. I just want you to lead an ordinary life, just like your name."
