  In the Intensive Care Unit, Qin Shu stood in front of the hospital bed in an anti-bacterial suit. She looked at her son, whose eyes were tightly shut, and his tiny, fleshy face was ashen. He had not woken up since he was pushed out of the surgery.

  This was also the first time she saw her son covered in blood. She was so scared that her legs were a little weak.

  Now, that small figure was lying on the hospital bed. She was so worried that she was at a loss.

  Other than when Xiao Jiu was born, he was never in a hospital. He almost never fell ill. He didn’t even catch a cold or have a fever, and his body had always been in good health.

  Qin Shu’s gaze had been fixed on Xiao Jiu the whole time, and she didn’t dare to make a sound, afraid that she would disturb his rest.

  Outside the ward, Feng Jiuxiao stood in front of the door without saying anything. He could see the situation inside through the small glass window on the door.

  Ling’er was still unconscious. But after an examination, her injuries were all external injuries. He was glad that they were external injuries.

  So, he came over to see Xiao Jiu.

  After all, he was the one who had asked Jiuyan to bring Xiao Jiu to accompany Ling’er. Now that such a thing had happened and he was still in critical condition, he could not shrink the responsibility.

  He stood in front of the door to watch for a while before turning around and leaving. He returned to the ward to see Ling’er.

  The ward was very quiet. It was so quiet that one could even hear a needle drop on the ground.

  He walked in and sat down in front of the bed. His amber eyes looked at the person who was still unconscious on the bed. Her fair face was still red and swollen. She had applied ointment and taken anti-inflammatory medicine. Otherwise, it would have been even more swollen.

  There was a wound on the corner of her mouth. His heart ached as if someone had dug a part of it.

  Up till now, he could still remember the scene when he had just seen her. Her slender figure was swaying like a kite on the verge of collapse. His rage grows like a raging inferno, unable to be contained.

  He had to find the person who had kidnapped Ling’er and make him pay the price in blood and regret ever coming into this world.

  Ling’er slowly opened her eyes, the pungent smell of disinfectant wafting up to her nose. Her delicate brows creased, and she felt a little more at ease when she saw the man before her.

  Seeing that she had woken up, Feng Jiuxiao heaved a sigh of relief and reached out to caress her face. His movements were very light, as if afraid that he would hurt her. He asked in a low voice, “You’re awake. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”


  Mentioning that, Ling’er felt uncomfortable all over. She had walked for so long and even fought. It was normal for her to feel sore.

  She shook her head. “It’s alright. I will be fine after resting.”


  Then she thought of Xiao Jiu. She grabbed the man’s hand and asked anxiously, “How is Xiao Jiu? Quickly tell me how Xiao Jiu is.”


  Feng Jiuxiao did not hide it from her and said honestly, “Xiao Jiu is now in the Intensive Care Unit. He is not out of danger yet.”


  Ling’er was worried and afraid when she heard that. She blamed herself endlessly. “It’s all because of me. If it wasn’t for me, Xiao Jiu would not have run back here to save me and would not have been injured. It’s all because of me that he was besieged and injured by those men.”


  “Xiao Jiu is like a little adult, saying that he wants to protect Grandma.” Ling’er said. When she thought of that scene, her heart ached so much that she could not stop crying.

  Feng Jiuxiao saw that she was so emotional and stretched out his arms to embrace her. He comforted her, “This is not your fault. It’s all my fault. Don’t be agitated. Be careful not to hurt the child.”


  Child?

  Ling’er was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted. A child was what she and Ziqing had always wanted, but there had been no news. Now that there was suddenly one, she asked again uncertainly, afraid that she had misheard.

  “You said that I have a child?”


  Feng Jiu Xiao looked calm on the surface, but excitement filled his heart when he found out they had a child. The joy of being a father-to-be for the first time made him unable to contain his ecstasy.

  “Yes, the doctor only found out when he examined you. It’s just that the fetus is unstable, so you can’t be too emotional.”


  Ling’er pushed the man away and looked down at her lower abdomen. With loose clothes, she could not see her flat lower abdomen, yet at this moment, there was a little life in there, looking forward to growing up.

  Her excitement and happiness were not any lesser than Feng Jiuxiao’s. But because she was worried about Xiao Jiu, she could not smile. “I know. I will take note.”


  Feng Jiuxiao pulled her into his arms again, and his clear and cold voice rang in her ears. “Ling’er, we finally have a child that belongs to us. I am very happy. I am finally going to be a Daddy. Do you know how long I have been looking forward to this day?”


  This was the longest sentence he had ever said.

  Ling’er nodded. “I know. Ever since we got our marriage certificate, you’ve been looking forward to the baby’s arrival.”


  Feng Jiu Xiao did not tell her that he had been looking forward to the arrival of that day since a very, very long time ago. But now, it was not too late.

  Ling’er rested for a night and an entire morning. Her physical strength had long recovered. As for the rest of her injuries, she just needed to recuperate.

  She said, “I want to go and see Xiao Jiu.”


  Ling’er then lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed, but Feng Jiuxiao grabbed the blanket and covered her up again. “Xiao Jiu is in the Intensive Care Unit. I will bring you to see him again when he wakes up.”


  “But……” Ling’er was still worried. When she recalled the scene of Xiao Jiu being sent flying and spitting out blood, her entire body felt cold. That was an expression of extreme fear.

  Feng Jiuxiao comforted her, “I know, I’m here.”


  At that moment, Jin Cheng brought lunch. When he saw that Ling’er had woken up, he heaved a sigh of relief.

  “Ling’er, you’re finally awake. Brother Jiu was worried sick about you.” He carried the food box and strode over, placing it on the table.

  Feng Jiuxiao’s voice was a little cold, “Call her Sister-in-law.”


  “I like to call Ling……” Noticing that Brother Jiu’s eyes had turned colder, he hurriedly changed his words. “Sister-in-law.”


  Feng Jiuxiao glanced at the food boxes on the table and asked, “Is the food you prepared light?”


  “How would I dare not do what Brother Jiu told me to do?” Jin Cheng took out the food boxes from the convenience bag one by one and opened them. They were all light side dishes.

  Ling’er only realized she was famished after she smelled the fragrance of the food. However, she had no appetite at all because she had been worried about Xiao Jiu.

  Feng Jiuxiao held a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other. Ling’er was about to reach out for it, but the man moved it away. She looked at him in puzzlement and the man said, “I’ll feed you.”


  Ling’er glanced at Jin Cheng, who was standing in front of the hospital bed, and she was a little embarrassed. “I can eat by myself.”


  Feng Jiu Xiao instructed, “Jin Cheng, you can go out first.”


  “I……” Jin Cheng only reacted after a long time. He seemed to be a bit of an eyesore. He also noticed that Ling’er seemed embarrassed because Brother Jiu was feeding her. He then said, “Sister-in-law, I’ll be leaving first then.”


  Ling’er nodded her head in embarrassment.

  Feng Jiuxiao did not even give him a glance. He took a spoon, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, and brought it to her mouth. “It’s not hot.”


  Jin Cheng, who had been despised, didn’t dare to stay any longer. He turned around and left the ward, closing the door before he left.
