After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 974 - You Seem More Like the Elder Sister

974 You Seem More Like the Elder Sister
Xia He smiled and said, “Sure, sure, sure. I’ll buy you whatever food you want. Let’s eat something to fill our stomachs first. We’ll go back to Mother’s place later and we can have whatever we want.”

“That’s more like it!” After saying that, Qiao Mei turned to look at Xia Fang and asked, “Aunt, can I go and visit my neighbors later?”

Xia Fang nodded and said, “Yes you can. I went to check on them yesterday. Sun Juan is recovering well and will probably be discharged earlier than expected. However, Zhou Shuang’s condition is not so optimistic. She has too many health problems and she needs to get all her issues treated. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to her health.”

“I’ll talk to them about this,” Qiao Mei said.

They had a quick bite and then Qiao Mei and Xia He went upstairs to visit Sun Juan and Zhou Shuang. Xia Fang went to her office to organize the materials she needed for her work and also to make arrangements for the surgery she was doing tomorrow. Qiao Mei asked the chauffeur to go home to pick up the things she wanted to bring to Xu Lan’s place. She had already packed the pagers into a bag, but she had not found a chance to go back.

It was rare that Zhou Shuang was still awake. When Qiao Mei entered the ward in a wheelchair, the women were all shocked and thought that something had happened to her.

“Qiao Mei! What happened to you! Are you alright!” Sun Juan widened her eyes and looked at Qiao Mei.

Feng Hong also went forward to look at Qiao Mei and asked nervously, “Qiao Mei, where does it hurt? Tell us where the discomfort is and let’s go for a checkup now since you’re already in the hospital. I’ll go and help you do the registration now.”
Xia He quickly stopped Feng Hong. Qiao Mei smacked her own legs and said, “I’m fine. My aunt brought me here for a checkup and insisted that I sit in a wheelchair because she’s concerned that I’ll get too tired. I’m totally fine, so don’t worry.”

Everyone felt relieved after hearing what Qiao Mei said. If something should happen to Qiao Mei as well, they would really be out of their wits. The police had been coming to the hospital frequently. Among the three women, Sun Juan was the only one who could take charge of the situation. The other two women were more weak-minded.

However, even though Sun Juan could deal with small issues well, this was the first time she had encountered such a big issue. She did not really know how to handle it.

“Sister Zhou, how do you feel now? Are you feeling better?” Qiao Mei asked.

Zhou Shuang still looked unwell and her lips were a little pale. It would take time for her to recuperate. The good thing was that she was now able to stay awake for longer periods of time compared to before, and the dizziness and nausea was slowly subsiding.

“I’m feeling much better. Thank you for coming to visit me.” She forced a smile on her face. At this moment, even the slightest movement made her feel uncomfortable.

“I’ll get someone to send over some tonics tomorrow. You must eat them. Sister Sun too. I hear from the doctor that you’re recovering very well, but don’t run around and disregard your own health. You also have to lie in bed and rest well,” Qiao Mei reminded the two women.

Sun Juan patted Qiao Mei’s head dotingly. She was really very fond of Qiao Mei who was about the same age as her daughter. If her daughter was still alive, she would probably be like Qiao Mei.

“You’re still so young, yet you’re still educating us mothers. I think you seem more like our elder sister,” Sun Juan said with a smile.

The people in the room laughed loudly. Sometimes, Xia He also felt that Qiao Mei was more mature and reliable than her. Qiao Mei did not behave like an 18-year-old girl, but more like a 38-year-old woman.

Just as everyone was chatting and laughing, there was a knock on the door of the ward and two men in police uniforms walked in.

“Are you Zhou Shuang and Sun Juan? I’m from the police station. My name is Zou Ming and this is my colleague. You can just call him Fatty,” said Zou Ming with a smile.

“Hello, Officer Zou. Are you here today because the police have found new clues?” Sun Juan asked nervously.

Zou Ming sighed and told them about everything Su Yang had said in prison. He also informed them that Old Madam Fan was currently being locked up in the detention center. The only way they could have a breakthrough now was if Sun Juan had other incriminating evidence that could directly lead to Su Yang’s conviction.
