[First Suffering then Satisfaction + Chasing the Wife in the Hell of Remorse + Second Male Lead Takes the Win] After four years of marriage, Ji Ying always thought she was the person most cherished...
Chapter 387 (End of Main Text)
Liang Jian straightened the haute couture suit he was wearing for the first time today.
“My father is getting old and his thinking is outdated. Yanchuan and I worked together to get him to hand over his shares ‘calmly’. Of course, Aunt Lin also played a big role. I hold 31% of Black Star’s shares and Yanchuan holds 20%. My father had no interest in managing the company and he also missed my mother very much, so Aunt Lin arranged for them to have a private room in the mental hospital. Now they are together every day.”
Ji Ying understood what he meant.
Forced to resign by his two sons and stripped of his chairmanship, Liang Weiyue must have been devastated and suffered a mental breakdown.
It just so happens that Xie Lingfang is also in the mental hospital. Placing him with his ex-wife can be considered a good deed that will make him stay faithful to his ex-wife.
However, Ji Ying did not accept the invitation to fly to Kun City.
In the later stages of her pregnancy, she prioritized preserving the pregnancy and carefully prepared an expensive gift for both Liang Jian and Liang Yanchuan.
As for Liang Yizhi's "impersonation" that night, she stopped pursuing the matter after her anger subsided.
With him by her side, she slept more soundly.
When she was nine months pregnant, although her physical condition was okay, Mrs. Shen still recommended a cesarean section for the sake of caution.
Ji Ying had no objections.
Throughout her pregnancy, all her choices revolved around what was best for her child.
However, during this long period of more than half a year, Liang Yizhi, who had once shown endless tenderness to her, never appeared again.
Ji Ying had to force herself to slowly accept the fact that he might never come back.
Despite Madam Shen arranging a top-notch surgical team, Liang Yizhi became increasingly silent after Ji Ying was admitted to the hospital.
He stayed by her side almost every step of the way in the ward, but rarely spoke; his gaze was always fixed on her with a heavy look.
The night before the surgery, the second son Meng Qian, the fourth son Liang Jian, the fifth son Liang Yanchuan, and the sixth son Xu Zhaoheng all came.
Several people surrounded Ji Ying, showering her with concern and asking after her well-being, while the "official wife" was relegated to the outermost perimeter, unable to even squeeze in.
Even the third brother, Gu Yanchen, who was far away overseas, made an overseas call.
Finally, Liang Yizhi, worried that the noise from the large group would disturb Ji Ying's rest, restrained his temper and "invited" everyone out of the room.
The ward finally quieted down.
Liang Yizhi closed the door and stood a few steps away from the bed, his back straight, still looking assertive, but his eyes secretly fell on Ji Ying's face, carrying a hint of barely perceptible unease.
Ji Ying could tell he was worried that she would be unhappy if he drove these people away, so she said, "Come here."
Liang Yizhi walked to the bedside, still standing upright, but with his shoulders slightly tucked in.
Beneath that deliberately maintained toughness lay a submissiveness that only existed when facing her.
"Hold me," Ji Ying said.
Liang Yizhi was surprised for a moment, then immediately sat down on the edge of the bed and carefully pulled her into his arms.
Ji Ying leaned against his chest and could hear his heartbeat, which was slightly faster than usual.
"Are you nervous?" she asked.
Liang Yizhi nodded.
"I... want to get a tubal ligation."
Ji Ying paused, then looked up at him. "Don't have any surgeries. I was able to get pregnant this time... probably because I ate something random when I was kidnapped, but it's also a happy accident. If you really have concerns, take precautions in the future."
Liang Yizhi tightened his grip on her arm, gently nuzzled the top of her head with his chin, and muffled his voice in her hair.
"I will try my best to be a good father. If there is anything I do wrong, please teach me and I will correct it."
Ji Ying didn't say anything, she just leaned against him quietly.
In the past few months, this man, who is inherently strong-willed and decisive, has tempered his sharpness for her sake, learned to be gentle with her, and learned to be considerate.
She saw all of his abrupt but real changes.
These changes were enough; she didn't ask for anything more.
The next day, Ji Ying was wheeled into the operating room.
Liang Yizhi stood close to the operating room door, lost in thought.
The Shen couple seemed calm and collected, but they hadn't said a word to Ji Ying since she was wheeled into the operating room.
It would be a lie to say I'm not nervous.
Half an hour later, the two children were brought out first.
Mr. and Mrs. Shen Jingxiu quickly stepped forward to take the child.
"Congratulations, the girl is the older sister and the boy is the younger brother."
Shen Jingxiu was overjoyed as he held his granddaughter.
"These two children look exactly like Yingying when she was born."
Madam Shen, holding her grandson, smiled and said, "With their parents' good looks, these two children can't be any less attractive."
"Where are my people?" Liang Yizhi asked with a stern face, showing no interest in holding the child.
The nurse quickly replied, "The mother is still undergoing a D&C and suturing procedure. She will need to be observed for two more hours afterward before she can be sent back to her ward."
"Why do we still need to observe?" Liang Yizhi asked.
The nurse explained, "This is to prevent postpartum hemorrhage."
Liang Yizhi's gaze darkened.
The next second, he calmly looked at Yue Zheng standing to the side.
"Immediately check the AB blood type inventory in our hospital's blood bank, and simultaneously contact the municipal blood center to request them to prepare an emergency allocation plan. Activate our own emergency response procedures, and notify all reserve personnel with compatible blood types within the system to stand by nearby and be ready for temporary blood collection."
It's been a long time since we've seen someone as decisive, logical, and quick to cover up potential risks.
Yue Zheng was stunned for a moment before immediately replying "Yes" and hurrying off to do it.
In fact, everyone present was quite surprised.
When did Liang Yizhi, who had been absent for so long, return and could steadily steer the ship amidst turbulent waves?
Ji Ying underwent general anesthesia and was fortunate enough to avoid postpartum hemorrhage.
When I woke up, it was already six hours later.
A strong wave of nausea rushed to her throat, and she couldn't help but gag.
Liang Yizhi, who stayed by the bedside without leaving her side, immediately supported her shoulder and back with one hand, and quickly took the soft cushion that had been prepared at the head of the bed with the other hand and put it on her.
He moved swiftly but without the slightest panic, his hand gently stroking her back with just the right amount of pressure, his voice low and clear.
"Breathe slowly, it's okay, this is a normal reaction after anesthesia."
After recovering, Ji Ying rested against the headboard for half a minute before opening her eyes and asking, "Where's the baby?"
"In the neonatal observation room."
As Liang Yizhi spoke, he gently moistened her chapped lips with a damp cotton swab, then carefully fed her a glass of lukewarm honey water.
"Your parents are over there taking care of you. They're both healthy, a boy and a girl. Don't worry about them. Have some water first."
How could Ji Ying not worry about her child?
She could understand Liang Yizhi's weak concept of family affection in this personality.
"I'll go check on them."
Just as Ji Ying was about to get up, a sharp pain shot through the incision in her abdomen, and she hissed softly.
At the same time, Liang Yizhi supported her upper body to steady her.
"You can't move now, be good."
He quickly pressed the call button and adjusted the angle of the hospital bed so that she could lie in the most comfortable position.
The nurse and the doctor on duty came in quickly.
Fortunately, after examination, it was confirmed that it was just superficial traction pain and there was nothing serious, but I was told again to rest in bed and avoid movement.
After the medical staff left, Ji Ying looked extremely disappointed.
Liang Yizhi patiently tucked her in and tidied her slightly messy hair.
"I'll have my parents bring the baby over right now. It's the first time we've met the baby, so let's get ready properly and let them know that their mother is the most beautiful."
Ji Ying was amused by his words.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and she looked at him in surprise.
"……husband?"
Liang Yizhi straightened the collar of her hospital gown, a smile that reached deep into her eyes.
"Yes, take good care of your health. We can't let any of our family members be missing."
He speaks fluently, acts decisively, and is logically clear; he should be fully recovered.
A short while later, Shen Jingxiu and his wife brought the child over.
The two children were born with fair skin and were very clean; they were incredibly beautiful.
However, according to custom, it is called "ugly" or "extremely ugly".
Liang Yizhi couldn't bring himself to say it, so he stood silently to the side watching Ji Ying touch this child and smell that child.
Suddenly, Ji Ying remembered something and looked at him.
Have you held the baby?
Liang Yizhi, “…”
Can I hug my wife first?
A thousand peaks once obscured the lonely moon's shadow, but in the end, the stars and moon were embraced in my arms.
His children are a gift from God, but his beloved wife is his lifeblood.
Liang Yizhi knew that he had completely entrusted his life to this mother and her two children.
