Chapter 995: Chapter 55: Brilliant Sparks, Deep Affection Cannot Be Forsaken [Main Episode]

Just then, as Li Zhi brushed past her, She slammed Her shoulder hard into She’s shoulder.

At that hit, She lost Her footing and almost pitched forward.

When She steadied Herself after swaying a bit, She stared at Li Zhi in stunned disbelief.

Not many people saw this move.

After Li Zhi came to a stop, She also shot over a cold, sidelong glance.

The chill in Those eyes was colder than December frost, and faintly mixed into it were thin threads of hatred.

She was dazed for a moment. Although She had married into the Feng Family for many days now and could clearly feel how displeased Her sister‑in‑law was with Her presence, this was the first time She had ever sensed such intense hatred.

She was not stupid. Her IQ had always been high; after the marital breakdown, the family’s downfall, and more than two years of lying low, Her personality had long since been worn by reality into something a bit overly mild. But that did not mean She was like this by nature. And after all the hardships She had gone through, the character She developed in Beijing meant She was no longer the woman from three years ago who let other women walk all over Her.

The beautiful Qiu Tong lowered slightly; the purity in Her eyes, Her elegance, were as before, only now with a bit more shrewdness...

She memorized the look in Her sister‑in‑law’s eyes at that moment, but said nothing. She pressed Her lips together, turned, and carried the child into the lounge to nurse Yu Ze.

...

Feng Yuxi was ultimately resuscitated. After a ten‑hour operation that left the surgeons and Doctors utterly exhausted, every member of the Feng Family was on edge as well, tormented to the point of complete fatigue.

The final outcome was actually just so‑so; especially during the leg surgery, strong traction was required.

But medicine is also a profession that eats youth for food. No matter how skilled Professor Li Mingda was, once age caught up, His physical and mental strength could no longer keep pace. By the time They reached the leg operation, His mental reserves were so depleted that He was a bit willing but not able.

On this point, no one in the Feng Family, top to bottom, had any grounds to complain. Being able to pull Him back from the brink was already a blessing beyond measure.

Yet on the other hand, when They thought about it, They knew there could have been a better outcome...

And with the Feng Family being hospitalized again this time, Feng Jingguo came to understand how dangerous orthopedic surgery was. He realized why, back when the entire orthopedics department thought Feng Chengjin was done for, Qiu Mingyan still refused to give up on saving the third son... At that time, Feng Jingguo had also been in surgery and never personally lived through that heart‑stopping ordeal.

This time, watching with His own eyes, understanding... the more Feng Jingguo grasped, the more deeply He felt it in His heart.

His gaze dropped in sorrow and trembled slightly. For the third time, regret surged into His eyes; He lowered His gaze and said nothing.

After that, the family took turns in shifts, coming to keep vigil over Yu Xi in the intensive care unit.

As father and mother, Feng Chengxuan and Li Zhi naturally stood the first watch, while Feng Jingguo, Ye Xilan, She, and Feng Chengjin went back to rest first.

Feng Jingguo had originally insisted on staying to watch over His eldest grandson, but because His eyes were too mournful and His mental strength was not good, He was supported by Feng Chengjin and forcibly taken home.

He had not slept all night. After coaxing His father to sleep, then returning to His own bedroom, by the time all this tossing around was over, it was almost seven in the morning.

Because of nursing the baby, Her biological clock was completely thrown off.

Seeing His delicate wife, in such circumstances, still tossed about all night by the Feng Family’s affairs without resting, and even leaning against the bed waiting for Him,

Feng Chengjin was faintly moved inside, filled with a softness and guilt that were hard to put into words.

He took a quick shower, changed into loungewear, and lay on the bed, pulling Her into His arms.

"Tired?" He asked.

She curled Her lips slightly and leaned against Feng Chengjin’s solid, powerful shoulder.

Breathing in that ever‑familiar clean scent She liked so much, She said, "I’m okay."

He also smiled and held Her even tighter.

For a long time, neither of them spoke. After a night of psychological torment, although they were sleepy and exhausted, with their minds so cluttered at this moment, they actually could not fall asleep.

After a pause, seeing that She still had no impulse to close Her eyes, Feng Chengjin let out a low sigh and said, "Whatever you want to ask, just ask..."

Her heart gave a little tremor at Her husband’s emotional intelligence, which always seemed to see straight through people’s thoughts...

She curved Her lips, no longer feeling shy, gathered Her words, and asked softly, "Cheng Jin, I want to ask, are things in our family going to go on like this forever?"

He knew exactly what She meant. His brows knitted slightly, but He did not answer.

She spoke even more gently: "We don’t even have to talk about us. You and I both know about Yu Yu. Because of this family, Yu Yu has suffered so many hardships She never should have. Then Yu Ning, then Yu Xi... As for Yu Xi, even though it’s because none of us paid enough attention that things turned out this way, we both know that if a child’s character is flawed, it must be related to their original family. Yu Ning and Yu Xi... weren’t they both raised by you?"
