In the evening, the setting sun threw shade all over J City.
Feng Shanshan woke up and sat up with difficulty.
Old Cheng was guarding the door. When he heard something, he turned around immediately. “Shanshan, you’re finally awake.”
“I…”
“It’s okay. Everything is fine. You and the child are fine, but you haven’t eaten much, so your body is weak,” Old Cheng said quickly. “I’ll heat up some food for you. Have some first.”
“Where’s Tang Yan?”
Hearing Feng Shanshan ask about Tang Yan, Old Cheng’s face instantly froze. “The captain is still in the operating room. He’s been in there for more than two hours.”
After Feng Shanshan heard that, she struggled to get out of bed, but Old Cheng stopped her. “Shanshan, so many people went through so much trouble to save you not to just let you waste yourself like this, okay? Last night, Captain Tang almost lost his life. He was injured so badly that he got out of bed after the surgery just to find you.”
Feng Shanshan was suddenly stunned.
“I’m sorry…”
“You don’t have to say sorry. Captain Tang almost went crazy. We all have to thank you for being safe and sound.” At this point, Old Cheng’s eyes turned red. “I’ve never seen Captain Tang lose control like that, you know? In the afternoon, he almost beat the three people who kidnapped you to death.”
“I always thought that Captain Tang was cold and that his woman wouldn’t be happy with him. But after watching Captain Tang for the past two days, I think you’re worth it.
“I’ll go get you some hot food. Have a good rest. I’ll tell you when Captain Tang comes out.”
Feng Shanshan didn’t move. After a while, she asked, “Does Qiqi know?”
“How could she not? CEO Sheng was involved the whole time. Wasn’t it all because of Qiqi?”
“Then, can I borrow your phone? I’ll let them know I’m safe…”
Sure.” With that, Old Cheng unlocked his phone and found Mu Qiqi’s phone number. “Qiqi is sick. Please comfort her.”
Feng Shanshan nodded and dialed the number.
Mu Qiqi answered almost instantly. It was as if she knew there was news.
“Senior Brother Cheng…”
“It’s me.” Feng Shanshan’s eyes were red and her throat was burning. “Qiqi…”
“You damn woman! Where have you been? Who are you trying to worry to death?” Mu Qiqi scolded. “Do you want to drive everyone crazy?”
“I’m sorry.”
“Sorry my ass.” Mu Qiqi couldn’t help cursing. “When you come back, we’ll settle the score. You rest first.”
“Okay,” Feng Shanshan replied, sounding like she had been sobbing.
The two didn’t say much because they couldn’t express themselves clearly with just a few words. Right now, Feng Shanshan was most worried about Tang Yan.
Soon, Senior Brother Cheng brought porridge into the ward and gave it to her. “This is my first time taking care of a woman. Make do with it.”
Feng Shanshan had no appetite at the moment. However, in order not to worry others, she obediently ate a big bowl of porridge.
“Captain Tang is out of danger. He’ll be out of the operating theater in ten minutes. You can rest assured now, right?”
Feng Shanshan nodded as she shed tears. However, she wanted to go to Tang Yan’s side so badly.
At the same time, Xu Che returned to Jianchuan while reporting to Sheng Xiao.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“We did manage to save him, but the conflict with Jin Bo won’t be avoided the next time,” Xu Che replied.
Sheng Xiao handed Xu Che the documents that his secretary had sent him in the afternoon. “Didn’t I ask you to look into his relationship with the Song family previously? Now, he’s moved all his educational institutions and financial companies to Jianchuan.”
“He’s trying to compete with you, President.” Xu Che took the documents and started reading.
“We’ll talk about this later. Keep an eye on Tang Yan. You’ve worked hard during this period of time. You should get off work early today.” Sheng Xiao picked up his coat and was planning to go home.
“Okay.” Xu Che was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded.
That was because being by Sheng Xiao’s side had made him busy and his life interesting. Now that he was free, he suddenly did not know what to do.
He was a person who had nothing to lose.
With that thought in mind, Xu Che rode his bike to J City. Tonight, it would be better for him to help keep an eye on things.
At seven o’clock in the evening, Tang Yan finally got off the operating table and was sent to the general ward. However, the doctor gave a ‘death’ order. “You must stay in bed for half a month. Otherwise, you won’t be able to live.”
The current Tang Yan was even more spectacular than in the morning. He was wrapped almost fully in gauze, looking like a mummy.
Feng Shanshan could finally enter his ward. Old Cheng borrowed a wheelchair and pushed her to the side of Tang Yan’s bed.
Seeing that there was nothing good on this man, Feng Shanshan cupped Tang Yan’s face with both hands and buried her head beside his, her eyes full of tears.
When Old Cheng saw this, he quietly left the ward and closed the door considerately.
Tang Yan opened his eyes and saw Feng Shanshan in front of him. He opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything. His voice was so hoarse that it sounded like sandpaper grinding on stone.
When Feng Shanshan saw him open his eyes, she said, “How could you do this? How could you be hurt like this…”
“You… you’re fine… That’s good.” Tang Yan rubbed his throat and squeezed out words with difficulty.
“Are you stupid? Who told you to work so hard? I don’t need it, alright? Seeing you become like this, I’d rather hurt myself.”
“Nonsense.” Tang Yan immediately stopped her. “How can a man let his woman get hurt? Moreover, you’re pregnant with my child. How can I let you get hurt? Do you know, I wish…”
“I know everything, you idiot. I know everything.” Feng Shanshan lay on Tang Yan’s chest and cried bitterly. “If something happens to you, what should I do? Have you thought about it?”
Tang Yan did not speak and let her cry because he knew that she had been scared and had suffered a lot in the past two days.
Now that she was crying, she could vent all her negative emotions.
“I don’t know anything… because I only know that without you by my side, I would rather die.
“Shanshan, the moment you disappeared, I understood so clearly how important you are to me.
“Don’t leave me, okay? I can’t bear to lose you like this anymore.”
Feng Shanshan lay on Tang Yan’s chest and kept nodding her head. Tears filled her eyes. “I won’t leave you again, even if I die.”
Tang Yan wanted to get up and kiss Feng Shanshan on the forehead, but his body was in bad shape.
When Feng Shanshan saw this, she could not help but laugh. “I’ll let you move around.”
After saying that, she leaned over and kissed Tang Yan’s dry lips. “I’m by your side, forever. We won’t be separated.”
Hearing this, Tang Yan finally relaxed his tense nerves. Because of this, his temperature shot up and he now had a high fever…
