The moment the door opened, Shang Yan saw Yu Sheng's red and swollen eyes. His Adam's apple bobbed with heartache, and he handed her his phone: "Sheng Ning is looking for you."

Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment before realizing that her phone was turned off.

She answered the phone and said, "Ningning, this is Yu Sheng."

Sheng Ning told Yu Sheng about the phone call Yu Jing had just given her. Yu Sheng's expression changed upon hearing this. Without saying anything more to Sheng Ning, she hung up the phone and hurriedly called Yu Jing.

As soon as Yu Jing answered the phone, she hurriedly asked, "Mom, what do you mean?"

Yu Jing's forceful, commanding tone: "If you still want Charles to perform surgery on Xiao Cheng within three days, go home right now."

Yu Sheng said expressionlessly, "Don't threaten me. Unless you get Charles to agree to perform the surgery on Xiao Cheng right now, I won't..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yu Jing interrupted her: "Charles is taking a flight to Beijing early tomorrow morning."

Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment. A ripple suddenly appeared in her stagnant and gloomy heart. A surge of emotion also appeared in the depths of her eyes, which were covered with a layer of frost. She asked incredulously, "What...what did you say? Say it again?"

On the other end of the phone, Yu Jing fiddled with her manicured nails, her voice languid: "I specially arranged a private jet for Charles to pick him up and bring him to Beijing tomorrow morning. If all goes well, he should arrive in Beijing by tomorrow evening. If you don't want him to come, I'll call him now..."

"No, Mom, no... I'm going home right now..."

After speaking hastily, Yu Sheng took off running downstairs. Because she was walking too fast, she stumbled and was about to fall down the stairs when someone grabbed her waist and pulled her into their arms.

Upon seeing that it was Shang Yan, Yu Sheng, still shaken, cried out, "Brother..."

"I send you……"

Yu Sheng was afraid that Gu Ye would see her if Shang Yan took her home, so she hurriedly said before he could finish speaking, "No need, I'll take a taxi home myself."

Shang Yan knew exactly what Yu Sheng was thinking. He said, "It's hard to get a taxi here. I'll take you to a place where you can get a taxi, and then you can take a taxi back."

Yu Sheng lowered her eyes somewhat uncomfortably when she realized that Shang Yan had seen through her thoughts.

After the brother and sister got into the car, Shang Yan handed her a carton of milk: "Milk can mask the smell of alcohol on your breath."

He didn't say anything, and she completely forgot she had been drinking.

"Thanks."

Yu Sheng took the milk, taking small sips while stealing glances at Shang Yan. After a few hesitations, she asked softly, "Why don't you ask me what happened?"

Shang Yan looked at Yu Sheng with restrained eyes, "If you don't want to say, it means it's inconvenient for you to say. Why should I ask?"

Yu Sheng lowered her head and murmured, "You drove me here especially for this, and now I have to go back so soon... I'm really... so sorry..."

"Don't be embarrassed with me, I'm doing this willingly!"

Yu Sheng's eyelashes trembled, and she looked at Shang Yan with confusion: "Willingly? What do you mean?"

Shang Yan didn't explain, but said, "You should get off the bus now!"

Yu Sheng looked out the window and realized that the car had stopped at some point.

She didn't ask any more questions and got out of the car.

As soon as she got off, Shang Yan drove away.

Yu Sheng didn't think too much about Shang Yan's words; her mind was full of thoughts about Charles coming to the capital tomorrow to perform surgery on Xiao Cheng.

The thought of Xiao Cheng, who had been in a coma for ten years, waking up filled her with tears of joy...

Forty minutes later, Yu Sheng got out of the car and looked at the gate of the residential area. Only then did she realize that she would have to face Gu Ye again.

If she could, she really didn't want to see him again, but in order for Xiao Cheng's surgery to go smoothly, she had to see him, and not only see him, but also pretend that she knew nothing.

Yu Sheng clenched her hands tightly at her sides and bit her red lips hard until she could smell the scent of Tian Xing. Only then did she resolutely lift her foot and walk into the residential area.

Just as she expected, Gu was waiting for her in the living room.

Seeing her return, he pretended to be suspicious and said, "Sheng Sheng, why are you back? Weren't you going to stay overnight at Sheng Ning's house?"

Before coming in, Yu Jing repeatedly told herself to stay calm, but when she saw Gu Ye's disgusting and hypocritical face, she still couldn't help but ask, "If you don't call my mom, will she let me come back?"

Gu Ye said in a concerned tone, "I didn't call your mother on purpose. I was just worried that something might happen to you."

Yu Sheng sneered, "Should I say thank you to you?"

"Sheng Sheng, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yu Sheng started walking towards the bedroom.

Before Gu could follow, Yu Sheng slammed the door shut.

He naturally sensed Yu Sheng's emotions, but the key issue was that he didn't know what he had done to offend her, which made him very irritable and uneasy!

At this moment, Aunt Duan, carrying the freshly brewed medicine for preventing miscarriage, carefully said to Gu Ye, "Sir, the medicine for preventing miscarriage is ready. Shall we take it to Madam now?"

Gu gestured for her to take it over.

Aunt Duan knocked on the door and said, "Madam, it's me."

Yu Sheng thought it was Gu Ye, but when she saw it was Aunt Duan, she hesitated for a moment and then opened the door.

"Madam, I've brought you some medicine to help with your pregnancy."

Yu Sheng glanced at the medicine bowl on the tray in Aunt Duan's hand and was about to reach out to take it when Aunt Duan said, "Madam, it's hot. Let me take it inside for you."

Yu Sheng could tell from Aunt Duan's expression that she had something to say to her, so she let her in.

As soon as the door closed, she asked Aunt Duan, "Aunt Duan, is there something you want to tell me?"

"I...I do...have something to tell you..."

Seeing that Aunt Duan looked nervous and scared, Yu Sheng asked softly, "What's wrong? Did something happen at home?"

Aunt Duan shook her head and said, "No, everything is fine at home."
