Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi sat on the sofa listlessly, like eggplants hit by frost, without saying a word.
The coffee table was filled with all kinds of delicious snacks, including potato chips, candies, biscuits, etc. However, these foods that made them salivate in the past did not arouse their interest at all at this moment.
Mother Qi stood aside, looking at the two children in such a depressed state, and her heart was filled with sorrow.
She sighed softly, her voice revealing endless helplessness and regret.
"Why did this happen? They were such a happy family, but now..." Qi's mother murmured to herself, and the sadness in her words seemed to overflow.
Mother Qi adjusted her mood a little, walked over to sit next to Shen Jinxi, gently picked up the snacks on the table, handed them in front of them, and said softly: "Dabao, Xiaobao, you two should eat something."
Shen Jinxi raised her head. Her big, watery eyes were now red from crying. She looked at Qi's mother with eyes full of fear and anxiety, and asked, "Grandma, will Dad leave us? Will he not want us anymore?"
When Qi's mother heard this, her heart tightened suddenly and her eyes became moist instantly.
She tried hard not to let her tears flow down, and quickly comforted him: "Xiaobao, no, your dad will not leave you."
"He will surely be back with you soon."
Shen Jinxi didn't seem to believe what Qi's mother said. She threw herself into Qi's mother's arms and burst into tears, crying and saying, "Grandma, is everything you said true? Will Dad really be back soon?"
"But the doctor said he was seriously injured."
Mother Qi hugged her tightly and patted her back gently. "Grandma won't lie. Your father will definitely come back. He loves you so much, how could he bear to leave?"
Shen Jinnan sat aside without saying a word, but he felt very uncomfortable.
He was also afraid, afraid that the father they finally had would leave them.
…
Shen Qingli hurried to the door of the intensive care unit.
She stood in front of the glass window, staring at Zhou Yanchen inside through the transparent window.
He lay quietly on the hospital bed, with various tubes inserted into his body.
Even though the distance was quite far, Shen Qingli could still clearly see Zhou Yanchen's bloodless face. He had his eyes tightly closed and looked lifeless.
Shen Qingli's eyes suddenly felt hot and tears welled up uncontrollably.
She reached out her hand and covered her heart, where a sharp pain came, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
"Ayan, you must hold on...we are all waiting for you outside..." Shen Qingli murmured to himself, his voice choked with sobs.
She didn't believe that Zhou Yanchen would remain in a deep sleep like this. She firmly believed that he would get better and come back to her.
Shen Qingli took a deep breath, trying to calm down his emotions.
She knew that now was not the time to be sad, and she had to do something for Zhou Yanchen.
She thought of the person who hurt Zhou Yanchen—Sheng Chu.
"I will never let her go!" Shen Qingli said gritting his teeth, with a trace of hatred flashing in his eyes.
She took out her cell phone and dialed Cen Yi.
"Cen Yi, where is Sheng Chu now?" Shen Qingli's voice was cold.
Cen Yi seemed to have expected her to call, and without any hesitation, he directly told Shen Qingli Sheng Chu's ward number.
Shen Qingli hung up the phone, put away his phone, turned around and walked towards Sheng Chu's ward.
Qi Yang saw Shen Qingli leaving alone, he was a little worried that something might happen to her, so he hurriedly followed her.
He quickly caught up with her, "Xiao Li, where are you going?"
Shen Qingli heard his voice and slowly stopped, but did not look back. He just replied calmly: "Go find Sheng Chu."
Qi Yang's heart tightened. He was worried that Shen Qingli would be bullied by Sheng Chu. "I'll go with you."
Shen Qingli hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded to show his agreement.
The two of them came to Sheng Chu's ward together, and Shen Qingli pushed open the door directly.
As soon as he entered the room, Sheng Chu's eyes fell directly on Shen Qingli. When he saw Shen Qingli's pale and haggard face, he knew clearly in his heart that even if Zhou Yanchen was not dead, he was probably seriously injured.
However, before Shen Qingli could speak, Sheng Chu suddenly burst into laughter, and the laughter was particularly harsh in the quiet ward.
When Shen Qingli saw this, her anger was instantly ignited. She widened her eyes and stared at Sheng Chu. Without saying a word, she stepped forward, raised her hand and slapped Sheng Chu hard.
A crisp "pop" sound echoed in the ward.
Sheng Chu was a little dazed by the sudden slap. When she came to her senses, she became angry and wanted to fight back.
But at this moment, a strong hand grasped her wrist tightly like an iron clamp, making her unable to move at all.
Sheng Chu looked at the person holding his wrist in astonishment and said sternly, "Let go."
Qi Yang just looked at her coldly, without loosening his grip at all.
Seeing this, Shen Qingli's eyes flashed with determination. She raised her hand again without hesitation and slapped Sheng Chu hard in the face again.
This slap was heavier than the previous one. Sheng Chu's cheeks instantly became red and swollen, and there was even a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Sheng Chu, listen to me!" Shen Qingli roared angrily, "If anything happens to A Yan, I will never let you go!"
"놖These hands can save people, but they can also take your life!"
Sheng Chu's face was filled with anger. He glared at Shen Qingli fiercely, as if he wanted to eat her alive. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Is he dying?"
Shen Qingli's anger instantly ignited when he heard this, and he growled at Sheng Chu, "Even if you die, he's still alive!"
Then, Shen Qingli took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, "Sheng Chu, you will pay the price for everything you have done."
After saying that, Shen Qingli no longer paid attention to Sheng Chu, turned around and walked towards the intensive care unit with Qi Yang.
As they were walking down the corridor, they suddenly saw Chang You and Bai Heng standing there.
Bai Heng seemed to have noticed something. He turned around and happened to meet Shen Qingli's gaze.
He quickly opened his mouth and shouted: "Sister-in-law!"
Chang You and Bai Heng walked quickly in front of Shen Qingli. Bai Heng asked anxiously, "Sister-in-law, is Lao Zhou okay?"
Shen Qingli's face was extremely solemn. She shook her head slowly and said in a low voice: "Ayan...his condition is not good."
"How did you know that?"
