After two hours of emergency rescue, Fu Yisi finally stepped down from the operating table, saving Cheng Jianwen’s life from the brink of death.
However, the chances of him waking up are extremely slim, almost zero. The source of thɪs content is novel⟡fire.net
This is why Fu Yisi did not look good when he came out.
If Cheng Jianwen cannot wake up, then it would be difficult to obtain the evidence he held about the events of that year. Although Cheng Jianwen’s life wasn’t taken, if he remains in a vegetative state for the rest of his life, Yi Zheng’s goal would have been achieved.
Ji Sang couldn’t bear to see Fu Yisi constantly frowning, so she made him sit down, walked behind him, and gently massaged his temples attempting to ease his fatigue.
But after only two minutes of massaging, the man somewhat reluctantly held her hand, gently squeezing it as if he was massaging her in return.
Ji Sang didn’t know what to say to comfort him.
The matter regarding Cheng Jianwen relates to the truth about the orphanage from back then, as well as what exactly happened to Aunt Fu Zhixing. What does it feel like now that Cheng Jianwen has become ?
It’s like being hungry for a long time, finally waiting for lunch to arrive, only for someone to deliberately spoil and dirty it.
While holding Ji Sang’s hand and kneading it, Fu Yisi realized how inappropriate it was to have her waiting in this cold office.
The night deepened, and the air turned colder.
Whatever matters there were to address, this was not the time.
Thinking this, Fu Yisi half-embraced Ji Sang into his arms.
Ji Sang shook her head.
Yet her hands were clearly still icy cold; Fu Yisi remained silent but tightened his hold on her hand.
The next day, when Ji Sang woke up, there was nobody beside her; the sheets and pillow no longer held any warmth, only leaving behind a cold scent uniquely Fu Yisi’s.
Ji Sang sat up, leaning against the headboard, taking a while to gather her spirits before getting out of bed.
Fu Yisi was likely not in the room, and without even washing up, Ji Sang headed to the upstairs gym.
But she did not see Fu Yisi exercising, causing her to pause briefly before descending downstairs. She did not see Fu Yisi in the kitchen either.
Ji Sang stood in front of the kitchen door for over a minute, and after confirming that Fu Yisi had come down for water, she looked up towards the second floor.
With some hesitation, Ji Sang slowly approached the study.
The door was not completely closed, and Fu Yisi’s voice inside was low and serious, dealing with official matters.
Ji Sang stood outside the door listening for about two minutes, then went downstairs to prepare breakfast for the two.
While frying eggs, Ji Sang’s thoughts drifted.
She knew best how busy Fu Yisi had been during their days on the ship; although he had never mentioned it, every time she saw him, he looked more haggard with dark circles under his eyes.
Fu Yisi had pulled all-nighters before, but it’s odd how he rarely had dark circles.
Unless he was exceptionally overworked for several days, and Fu Yisi’s skin being very pale, the dark circles became very noticeable.
Aunt Fu Zhixing’s disappearance and the orphanage were inseparably connected, and ironically, the one most likely to know the insider details or who had seen them couldn’t remember those events.
Therefore, this is why Fu Yisi had been working so hard, investigating Cheng Jianwen’s background, travelling to the United States for updates on Aunt Zhi Xing and searching the town for traces of where the aunt once lived.
Perhaps there were many more things she didn’t know about that Fu Yisi was investigating from behind the scenes.
All because of that one thing: "I don’t want you to recall those unpleasant memories."
Although later he convinced her to undergo treatment, it was too slow, so slow that such treatment posed no discomfort or challenge to her.
Ji Sang quickly turned off the stove and threw the ruined egg into the trash can. Instead of continuing, she went to her room and made a call to Chang Li.
She didn’t want to delay any longer.
She couldn’t proceed with the treatment regimen arranged by Fu Yisi.
