The Movie Queen Wants to Get Back with Her Ex - Chapter 32
Chapter 32: Finally Back
Thinking about his daughter needing to go to the hospital because of this, Si Hengyu couldn’t help but harbor resentment toward Yan Xijing.
An outburst period for a top-level alpha is inherently dangerous. If Si Shao managed to survive this one by sheer luck but ended up with lasting side effects—then what? Si Hengyu looked at Liang Rui, who was crying uncontrollably, and didn’t dare let his thoughts spiral. All he could do now was hope that Si Shao would pull through. She had to.
Once they reached the hospital, Si Shao was immediately wheeled away by the doctors while the others were left outside.
Ruan Meng had followed them there. Now, she comforted them, “Uncle, Auntie, don’t worry. Sister Si Shao will be okay. I’m here too.”
“Good child, thank you so much,” Liang Rui said, holding Ruan Meng’s hand and making her sit down again, then silently continued to weep.
Two hours after Si Shao was taken into the emergency room, Yan Yi and Bai Hui also arrived. The moment they saw Ruan Meng, they understood why she was there. However, even though they knew the reason, there was no room for anger—nor could they say a single word of objection. From beginning to end, this whole matter had been Yan Xijing’s fault.
Meanwhile, Yan Xijing was still on the train, her expression more serious than ever. Even if she had truly wanted to break up with Si Shao, she shouldn’t have done it at a time like this—not when she wasn’t by Si Shao’s side.
“Xijing, don’t worry. When we get to the next station, we can switch to a flight. It’ll be quicker from there.”
“Mm.”
Si Shao had been in her outburst for nearly 24 hours now. Even if they rushed now, it might be too late. Yan Xijing’s mind was in utter chaos—she didn’t know how she would face Si Shao, or Si Shao’s parents… or even her own parents.
Mo Ning could only pat Yan Xijing on the shoulder to comfort her silently.
When the sun had set, their train finally arrived. They got off and hailed a taxi to the airport, which took about an hour. Once in the departure hall, they had to wait another two hours before the flight could take off.
“Xijing, do you want to eat something?”
“No, I don’t have an appetite. I’ll eat after we arrive.”
Until she saw Si Shao, Yan Xijing couldn’t feel anything else.
Mo Ning didn’t push her to eat. He just sat beside her, quietly waiting for the flight.
Two hours passed, and once they were on the plane, things moved more quickly—it would take just over an hour to arrive.
For the first time in her life, Yan Xijing realized how excruciating waiting could be. The worst part wasn’t the anxiety—it was the helplessness. She could be useful, yet was completely unable to do anything.
At that moment, Si Shao’s condition had deteriorated to the point where she needed a ventilator. Forcing herself through the outburst phase had left her completely drained. Now she was fully unconscious, unable to breathe on her own, and no one knew when—or if—she would wake up. The only good news was that her life had been saved.
Si Hengyu was heartbroken over the outcome, but there was nothing he could do. His daughter—why did she have to be this stubborn? Fortunately, they were finally coming back.
“Yan Yi, Bai Hui, you two should go home. Si Shao’s condition has stabilized. We’ll stay here with her. As for Xijing… if she does come back, tell her not to come here. I don’t want to see her right now.”
Si Hengyu’s voice was icy. Liang Rui tugged at his sleeve, but he just grabbed her hand tightly and said, “Rui, we didn’t raise our daughter just to let her be treated like this. They’re not right for each other. Once Si Shao wakes up, cancel the engagement.”
“Hengyu, this is our fault… it’s Xijing’s fault. When she comes back, I’ll talk to her.”
Yan Yi knew that now wasn’t the time to argue. They could only return home. If the engagement had to be called off, they would not stop it.
Yan Yi had never felt so powerless in all his years doing business, but there was nothing he could do now. He left, pulling Bai Hui along.
When Yan Xijing got off the plane, she immediately called Yan Yi.
“Dad, which hospital is Si Shao in?”
“You still know how to come back!”
“Dad, don’t scold me now. Just tell me where she is. After I see her, you can yell at me all you want.”
Yan Yi could hear her genuine anxiety, so he gave her the name of the hospital and then hung up. Yan Xijing got a taxi directly from the airport, with Mo Ning still following her.
At the hospital, Yan Xijing could even smell Si Shao’s scent lingering in the air. She didn’t need to ask—she knew where to find her.
When Si Hengyu saw Yan Xijing, he looked uncomfortable, but the moment he noticed Mo Ning behind her, everything suddenly made sense. In that instant, he felt more than anger—he felt heartache. His daughter had been cheated on, yet she still clung to the person who hurt her.
“Uncle, Auntie.”
Yan Xijing hadn’t seen Si Hengyu and Liang Rui in a long time. They were the elders who had watched her grow up and spoiled her dearly. But now, they looked at her like a stranger. Standing beside them was another person—an omega she vaguely recognized but didn’t know well. She knew instantly: that was the omega.
“When Si Shao wakes up, no matter what, I’m canceling the engagement,” Si Hengyu said coldly.
Yan Xijing: “…”
She had always been dissatisfied with the engagement that had been arranged so early in their lives. Yet now, hearing it would be canceled, she felt a sharp pain in her chest. It shouldn’t have come to this—Si Shao shouldn’t have been hurt like this.
Liang Rui couldn’t bring herself to be harsh. Since the day Yan Xijing was born, she’d treated her like her own child. She never imagined things would turn out this way. Unable to say anything cruel, she simply turned away and avoided looking at her.
“How is Si Shao? Can I see her now?”
Yan Xijing had never wanted to see Si Shao more than she did now.
“No. She’s in the ICU under observation. Even if she stabilizes, I don’t want her seeing you right away. Don’t worry—no matter how much she insists, I will cancel your engagement. I won’t let you delay your relationship with him.”
As he finished, Si Hengyu frowned and looked directly at Mo Ning.
Si Hengyu didn’t care about the entertainment industry, but he had heard of Mo Ning. Anyone who hurt his daughter would pay the price. He couldn’t touch Yan Xijing, but Mo Ning—he could deal with. No matter what circle he was in, he would make sure Mo Ning couldn’t survive in it.
Mo Ning, a top-level alpha, had never feared anyone in his life. But under Si Hengyu’s gaze just now, a chill went down his spine.
Yan Xijing didn’t notice the silent tension between them. Anxiously, she said, “Uncle, there’s nothing between me and him. We were just filming a show. I—” She wanted to explain more, but at this point, any explanation felt utterly hollow.
