Chapter 627 Completed the Last Trial
Ye Mu'en took his family of four to the hospital first. Although he already knew his sister's condition was good today, he still wanted to see her again.
"Huanhuan, how do you feel about being here? I'm sorry to have troubled you this time, leaving without finishing your studies."
Mother Ye patted her daughter-in-law's hand. This child was the one who always put others first and wronged herself.
"Mom, I've thought it all through. After Shenge is discharged, I'll accompany her for a while and then go to take the college entrance exam here. I can also use this time to study new knowledge."
"What major are you planning to study?"
"Still economics. I just don't know how economics is divided here. I'll have to go to school and ask about it then."
Qu Huanhuan had a cheerful personality and was someone who became even more motivated when faced with setbacks. These things were not difficult for her.
"Good, when Mom starts her business here, you can follow along and learn. I'm not bragging, but the Bai family really has a genetic talent for business."
"Hahahaha, okay, I'll learn from Mom from now on."
The two men, who weren't very good at business, exchanged a glance in front. What were they going to do? They couldn't let their wives support them, could they?
"Hey, isn't that Xiao Youyou? Why is he sitting in the car by himself?"
Ye Mu'en quickly pulled the car over.
"Xiao Youyou, why isn't A Long with you?"
"Uncle!"
Xiao Youyou quickly pushed open the car door and got out. Before he could even stand steady, he was hugged.
"Good boy, why are you in the car by yourself?"
Mother Ye was very unhappy. In an unfamiliar place, what if he was kidnapped? Where would they find him?
"Grandma, Dad took sister to buy a dress. I didn't want to go, so I stayed in the car by myself. It's not Dad's fault."
"You brat, did I say I blamed your dad? You're defending him before I even say anything. Your dad really raised you well."
Mother Ye pinched her grandson's cheek. Looking at the seven-story tall department store, they couldn't miss it.
"Huanhuan, let's go shopping too. We can buy some new clothes for Shenge. When she's discharged, everything will be new to get rid of the bad luck."
"Okay."
Father Ye and Ye Mu'en were fortunate not to be called along, so they quickly took Xiao Youyou to a nearby coffee shop to wait.
"Uncle, I'm going to learn the cello. Dad even bought me a cello."
"Really? Study hard, and Uncle will give you a good cello when you're accomplished."
"Then what will Grandpa give Youyou?"
"Nothing needed. Let me finish learning first."
He was like a little adult, with his own ideas about everything.
After ordering some food, Ye Mu'en started discussing future plans with his father.
"Dad, what are your thoughts?"
"I don't know yet. We only know how to fight, wage war, and train troops. What else do we know?"
"If that doesn't work, we can buy a farm and raise crops and poultry."
"You have ambitions! We've come abroad, so we should earn more of their money. I'm not going to farm for them, not even in my wildest dreams."
Xiao Youyou saw his grandpa and uncle looking troubled and looked out at the cars.
"Uncle, can you build cars?"
"Heh, Xiao Youyou really thinks highly of us."
"We can learn. I'm already starting to learn foreign languages."
Father and son exchanged a look, both showing resistance. If they had to learn, they shouldn't choose something so difficult right away.
"Forget it, let's have a meeting when we get back. Let's see what businesses the Bai family is expanding into so we don't clash with them."
Actually, opening a security company in China would be the best, and it could provide jobs for retired soldiers. But hiring a bunch of foreigners abroad, he didn't know if they would be reliable.
Speaking of the Bai family, Bai Er Jiūmā was coaxing her granddaughter, Mumu. She had been crying and calling for her mother since they got off the plane. She must have realized that she was further away from her mother.
Bai Chenxi was also coaxing her. The three-year-old child only responded to coaxing; reasoning was useless.
"Dad, how about I take you for a pony ride?"
"Get lost. If you scare the horse, you'll scare the person too."
"Dad, where's my mommy?"
"Uh, Mom went to a very, very far away place for work."
"When can I see Mom?"
"It might take a few years."
"How long is a few years?"
Bai Er Jiūmā secretly wiped away tears. This was the psychological damage a child from a single-parent family had to endure. She squeezed her son's waist hard. It was all this scoundrel's fault.
Bai Chenxi also felt wronged. No one had informed him when the child was born. What could he do!
Fortunately, there were two younger children at home to play with, but Mumu would cry whenever she became quiet.
"Sigh, we have to endure this for a while."
Grandma Bai gently patted the child, who was still sobbing in her sleep. This was why the Bai family insisted on not allowing divorce; it was always the children who suffered.
"Mom, do you think Chenxi will be a bachelor for the rest of his life? With a child suddenly appearing, how will he get married later?"
"Then he won't get married. For Mumu's sake, this is what he has to sacrifice. I will never agree to a stepmother entering the family."
"Meng Wanwan is truly a troublemaker, ruining Chenxi's marital prospects for no reason."
"Both of them made mistakes. If Chenxi hadn't been so reckless, none of this would have happened."
It was all a bad karma. The son of a playboy would only be even more unrestrained.
After Ye Shenge woke up, she felt her heart beating. She couldn't describe the feeling, as if she wasn't integrated with her body. It beat on its own, and sometimes it would thump hard as if in protest.
She would wake up for a while each day and then lose her energy, feeling half-asleep, like she was sleepwalking. She vaguely heard Dr. Watson's questions but couldn't quite grasp them. She remembered having a fever once and receiving many injections.
On the tenth day, Ye Shenge had the strength to speak, and her spirits improved considerably. The bed could also be raised a bit.
"Mrs. Zi, your recovery is progressing very well. If it continues like this, you can be moved to a private room in another week. Your family has been wanting to see you every day."
"Thank you, Doctor. I owe it all to you this time."
"You're welcome. I am now your personal physician, so your condition will be my responsibility."
Ye Shenge smiled. It must have been the child's father. A world-class expert like him would have taken a lot to hire.
The day Ye Shenge was moved to a private room, the whole family came together again. However, she couldn't have too much contact with people to prevent infection, so they all stood far away, watching her with her eyes open on the bed.
"Shenge, we can come to see you every day from now on."
"Mom..."
"Daughter..."
Ye Shenge finally saw the family she missed. Even a short time made her very happy.
Zi Yisheng, wearing a mask and cap, stayed by her side the entire time. He wore gloves and gently held his wife's hand. They had finally completed the last trial.
"From today onwards, you can have meals. We'll start with light, liquid food, and add some nutritious ingredients. You can also eat some fruit."
"Can egg yolk and shredded meat be added?"
"Yes, you need to gradually increase your nutrition now."
