Chapter 167 Unaware of Oneself
One of the doctors came out of the intensive care unit, looking like he was rushing somewhere.
Fu Shenyuan immediately stopped the young doctor.
"Doctor, what's wrong!" Fu Shenyuan asked anxiously.
The young doctor didn't have time to answer him; he was hurriedly checking the data sheet in his hand as he walked.
Fu Shenyuan still blocked him from leaving, shouting, "What exactly happened!"
The young doctor was getting annoyed by his behavior and her tone became rather harsh.
"Are you a family member of the patient or someone else? Don't obstruct our doctors here. I need to get the patient's medication and equipment for treatment. The patient needs to have an induced labor immediately. The fetus's heartbeat has stopped. Any later and it will endanger the patient's life!"
After the young doctor finished speaking, he immediately went to contact the pharmacy and the emergency operating room.
Fu Shenyuan was pulled away and pushed down by Wen Qingrang, leaving him stunned on the spot.
Induced labor... the fetal heartbeat stopped...
What was that doctor saying just now?
Fu Shenyuan was unable to calm down for a long time.
Wen Qingrang watched as the door to the intensive care unit opened a moment later, and medical staff quickly pushed Jiang Ranxing's hospital bed out and then quickly pushed it into the operating room at the end of the corridor.
All of this happened extremely quickly, like the split second between movie scenes. Before anyone could react, the operating room lights came on again.
Wen Qingrang's eyes were filled with pain. He had been in this highly tense state for too long and was almost numb from the stimulation. He had no choice but to wait outside each door, waiting for fate to decide his fate.
Fu Shenyuan stood frozen outside the intensive care unit for a long time before finally walking over, his eyes also fixed on the operating room door.
Fu Shenyuan asked, but his throat seemed to be filled with heavy blood, and every word was hoarse.
"She's pregnant? Wen Qingrang, did you know?"
Wen Qingrang was even less friendly to him at this moment. Looking at Fu Shenyuan's distressed appearance, he felt more disgusted than if he had swallowed a fly.
Who is he putting on this act for? Jiang Ranxing can't even regain consciousness now, so who can see him like this?
Wen Qingrang said bluntly, "Yes, Jiang Ranxing was pregnant. That was your child, but it's gone now."
Wen Qingrang didn't hesitate to stab his wounds: "Your child is gone because of you, Fu Shenyuan."
After saying this, he didn't want to look at Fu Shenyuan again, his whole mind and body were focused on the person in the operating room.
Fu Shenyuan's swaying body could no longer support him, and he knelt down on both knees, his eyes and heart filled with a numb, mechanical cycle of judgment.
Jiang Ranxing is pregnant with his child.
His child was lost because of his negligence.
Jiang Ranxing's life is not necessarily in danger.
Fu Shenyuan could no longer sense the changes in his surroundings. It was as if the world had turned into a thick, dark fog in an instant, and he stood in the fog, unable to find a way out.
A slight pain began to emanate from inside my heart, and then quickly spread to every corner of my body.
He couldn't imagine what Jiang Ranxing had gone through.
How did she manage to call for help in that critical situation, and how heartbroken and helpless she must have felt as she collapsed in the cold, deserted rain?
What kind of despair and... hatred must she feel when "he" hangs up the phone?
He couldn't even imagine how much Jiang Ranxing would hate him if she woke up again and faced all of this, since she already disliked him.
Fu Shenyuan knelt on the cold ground, feeling endless regret and pain, but he could do nothing.
The door in front of him was tightly closed, and the fate of the person inside was unknown. He might not even have a chance to save her life.
No!
Fu Shenyuan stood up slowly as if he had lost his soul, staggering so much that he almost couldn't stand. Tan Shen quickly came over and supported him.
"Mr. Fu, you need to take care of your health so that Miss Jiang can wake up," Tan Shen couldn't help but remind him.
Fu Shenyuan nudged Tan Shen and said, "Go quickly! Find the top doctors in China or abroad! Have them come; they must save her! I still have things to say to her; she can't just leave like this!"
Tan Shen's eyebrows furrowed together. He had never seen Fu Shenyuan so irrational before; it seemed he had truly suffered a huge blow.
Fu Shenyuan urged him again, and Tan Shencai took his phone and left to contact a top-notch team of doctors.
The night was incredibly long, and the lights in the operating room seemed to have no end in sight.
Every time the doctors and nurses passed by the operating room to retrieve medicines and blood, they would see two strikingly different yet incredibly handsome men waiting there, looking utterly lost.
Wen Qingrang was occasionally able to talk to the doctor and ask about the situation inside.
Fu Shenyuan, however, leaned against the wall as if he had completely lost all his vitality, his eyes staring at the operating room door with a terrifying and empty look.
Finally, the long night ended, and the operating room lights went out.
The doctor came out of the door, and Wen Qingrang quickly stood up. Ignoring the numbness in her body, she strode over with firm steps and asked:
"How is she, doctor?"
Fu Shenyuan finally came to his senses and came over to stare at the doctor and speak.
The doctor removed his medical mask and said, "The patient's condition is not good. The serious car accident caused damage to multiple internal organs and the brain. In addition, she is in an extremely weak state after the induced labor. Her vital signs have stabilized for the time being, but she still needs to be observed in the intensive care unit to see how things go."
Upon hearing that Jiang Ranxing was still alive, Wen Qingrang was almost moved to tears. As long as she had a breath left, there was still hope for her to live.
When Wen Qingrang shook hands with the doctor, he expressed his deepest gratitude.
The doctor patted him on the shoulder and then left.
The operating room door was pushed open completely, and Jiang Ranxing was pushed out of the hospital bed.
"We need to transfer you to the intensive care unit now. Please make way."
Wen Qingrang made way upon hearing this, but his gaze remained fixed on Jiang Ranxing's cheek, still uneasy.
Her usually rosy cheeks were now completely pale, almost bloodless, and made even more pale and pitiful by her long black hair.
Wen Qing felt a pang of sadness welling up inside her.
He was genuinely worried about Jiang Ranxing; he knew how terrified she must be right now.
How panicked a person would be if they were trapped in a thick fog and couldn't find a way out.
But he didn't stay long before the door to the intensive care unit closed again, and the medical staff reattached the monitoring equipment, tubes, and oxygen mask to Jiang Ranxing.
Seeing the stable numbers on the monitoring instrument, Wen Qingrang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Glancing to the side, he saw Fu Shenyuan still standing there, seemingly lost in thought.
When Tan Shen finally returned after disappearing for a night, Fu Shenyuan stirred slightly to listen to Tan Shen speak.
Tan Shen said, "President Fu, the medical team has been arranged. Should Miss Jiang stay here, or go to our hospital?"
Fu Shenyuan glanced at Wen Qingrang, then looked at him coldly and said, "Take her away and do it immediately."
Upon hearing this, Tan Shen nodded and turned to leave, but Wen Qingrang stepped in front of him and blocked his way.
"Let's see who can take her away." Wen Qingrang's tone was equally cold.
He was no longer as gentle as before. He pressed his phone slightly, made a brief call, and soon a group of bodyguards in black suits came up the stairs and lined up at the door of the intensive care unit, giving people an immense sense of oppression.
Fu Shenyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp glint appearing in them: "Wen Qingrang, what do you mean? I took my wife away, what are you doing interfering?"
Wen Qingrang snorted coldly, finding it unacceptable that Fu Shenyuan could say such a thing.
“You and Ranxing are already divorced. She is no longer your wife. You have no right to take her away.”
Fu Shenyuan could not refute it, but he also disapproved of Wen Qingrang's attitude of siding Jiang Ranxing with him.
Fu Shenyuan clenched his fists, walked towards Wen Qingrang, and said through gritted teeth, "I am more qualified than you. What are you to dare to covet her?"
Wen Qingrang retorted, "That's what I should be saying to you. You're the one who's done so many things to wrong her, and you still dare to dream of taking her away. If you have any conscience, think about it yourself: would Ranxing be willing to go with you?"
Wen Qing gave a slight signal with his eyes, and the bodyguards present quickly took up positions at the door of the intensive care unit, determined not to let anyone take Jiang Ranxing away.
Fu Shenyuan and Wen Qingrang stood facing off for a long time before Fu Shenyuan seemed to give in and walked to the side.
Fu Shenyuan's eyes were filled with an indelible darkness. He said to Tan Shen, "Go and call someone. I have to take her away."
Tan Shen saw the ruthlessness and madness in Fu Shenyuan's eyes. Although he spoke calmly, it contained a sense of rampant madness.
Tan Shen had no choice but to obey his orders, so he went to call someone to make arrangements again.
Fu Shenyuan remained standing in the shadows, making it impossible to see his face.
Wen Qingrang glanced at him, then took out her phone, walked to the side, and made a call.
-
Not long after, a sound came from the elevator. Fu Shenyuan thought it was Tan Shen calling someone over, but he didn't expect it to be him.
Grandpa, you—
With a loud slap, before Fu Shenyuan could finish speaking, he was slapped across the face by the newcomer, and his cheek instantly burned with pain.
Old Master Fu walked over and, in front of everyone, delivered a vicious slap, seemingly showing no mercy whatsoever.
"Are you trying to drive me crazy, Fu Shenyuan? Not only did you ruin the wedding, but you also caused a scene at the hospital! What exactly are you trying to do?!"
Old Master Fu was so angry he could hardly breathe.
Wen Qingrang walked over and nodded to Old Master Fu.
“Mr. Fu, I didn’t want to trouble you to come back, but Fu Shenyuan’s presence here is seriously affecting the treatment of Ranxing, so I have no choice but to ask you to come and take charge of the situation.”
Wen Qingrang said, glancing at Fu Shenyuan's expression.
Fu Shenyuan's mouth was already bleeding from the blow. He touched his cheek with his tongue. Old Master Fu's strength was no joke; he could really hit people hard.
He knew he had angered his grandfather.
But Wen Qingrang was still adding fuel to the fire, saying that it was affecting Jiang Ranxing's treatment.
Fu Shenyuan said angrily, "I brought in the best medical team to Fu's International Hospital. I took her away so she could receive better treatment!"
"Do you think I can't borrow a good medical team, Fu Shenyuan? Don't be so arrogant. You know what you're really thinking!" Wen Qingrang retorted, not to be outdone.
The two were about to start arguing again when Old Master Fu slammed his cane down: "Nonsense!"
Grandpa Fu looked at Fu Shenyuan and said, "You're leaving with me today. The hospital will take care of Ranxing, and with Qingrang here, you don't need to worry. You should go back and clean up that mess from the wedding first! Your second uncle and the rest of the Fu family are already waiting for you at the old house!"
After Old Master Fu finished speaking, Fu Shenyuan didn't make a move at all; he silently resisted the words "leave."
He didn't want to leave Jiang Ranxing.
Old Master Fu was also furious: "Fu Shenyuan! You're not listening to me anymore? A few men, take him away!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several even stronger men appeared behind Old Master Fu and took Fu Shenyuan away.
These people had all studied professional grappling and fighting techniques. No matter how skilled Fu Shenyuan was, he could only struggle for a few moments before he was helpless.
So he had no choice but to give in: "Okay, I'll go back with you, but let me see her one more time."
Fu Shenyuan turned his head and looked at the person lying in the intensive care unit. He was still so fragile, quiet, and lifeless.
He felt a pang of heartache upon seeing it.
Old Master Fu snorted and said, "If you had known this would happen, you shouldn't have treated her like that before!"
Old Master Fu glanced at the others: "Take him away!"
Fu Shenyuan's last glimpse was also forcibly blocked.
As the car gradually drove away from the hospital building, in the back seat, Old Master Fu and Fu Shenyuan were sitting side by side.
Before Old Master Fu's anger had subsided, he asked, "You only came back from abroad because of Ranxing, leaving Miss Lin alone overseas, didn't you!"
Fu Shenyuan nodded in agreement.
Then he quietly said, "She was in a car accident and lost her child, all because of me."
When he spoke this truth, his heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.
Although Old Master Fu had heard a little about it, he was still greatly shocked when he heard that Jiang Ranxing had lost her child, and that the child was the most legitimate child in the Fu family.
But what's done is done, and there's no use in regretting it now.
"No one wants to see their child die. The Ranxing car accident was also an accident. You need to consider your own situation first. You were already suspended from your job. You were supposed to marry Miss Lin and then find an opportunity to return to your post. But because you left the wedding, your second uncle has seized on your weakness. Now he's bringing the Fu family to challenge you and make you hand over your real power. Have you thought about what you should do?"
Grandpa Fu went to the hospital not only to let Jiang Ranxing receive proper treatment, but also because the Fu family was facing a major decision, which is why he sought out Fu Shenyuan.
Old Master Fu said, "Hongkai insists on getting an explanation from me today, and I have already refused. But when you go back, you need to give the entire Fu family an explanation. What impact have your actions had on the Fu family, and what price should you pay? I believe you have thought about it carefully."
Fu Shenyuan remained silent, staring at the fleeting scenery outside the window, his eyes filled with unshed sorrow.
He simply wasn't in the mood to care about any of that.
He no longer cared who it was or what it wanted.
The further away he got from Jiang Ranxing, the more exhausted and uneasy he felt.
It feels like I'll never see Jiang Ranxing again.
His only wish now is to see Jiang Ranxing standing in front of him as before, even if she doesn't smile at him anymore, as long as she's still there and alive.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe the excruciating pain he felt at that moment.
At that moment, he clearly realized that he didn't care about anyone or anything, whether it was the power or status of the Fu family, or even Lin Xuesha, whom he had always cherished and was grateful to.
He only cares about Jiang Ranxing.
After experiencing so much, he was finally able to confirm his feelings for Jiang Ranxing. He had fallen in love with Jiang Ranxing without even realizing it.
Every little thing in his daily life, every little thing about her, slowly seeped into his cold heart.
He had long been melted by Jiang Ranxing's gentleness, and he finally understood why, even though he felt he didn't like Jiang Ranxing, he had never hated her existence over the past six years.
He once thought he didn't care about having such a person in his life. In fact, he had already gotten used to Jiang Ranxing's presence and had unknowingly come to enjoy having her in his life.
So when Jiang Ranxing was really about to leave, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
It was simply because he didn't want Jiang Ranxing to leave from the bottom of his heart; he had already fallen in love with this woman who had always given him warmth.
It's just that he woke up too late. Now things have gotten out of control, and he has nothing left to make Jiang Ranxing turn back.
The regret and pain were enough to destroy him from within; he had to bear it all, and it was all of his own making.
The only thing he's thinking about right now is that when Jiang Ranxing wakes up, he'll be by her side, holding her hand, and saying the "I'm sorry" and "I love you" that he's always owed her.
When she wakes up, he will definitely ask for her forgiveness, even if she doesn't want to look at him properly again.
Looking at Fu Shenyuan beside him, who seemed to have lost his soul, Old Master Fu's anger could not be sustained for long.
In the end, things have come to this point, and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
The car came to a smooth stop in front of the Fu family's old mansion. The old butler opened the door for both Old Master Fu and Fu Shenyuan, and the two got out of the car and walked into the old mansion together.
In the hospital on the other side.
Wen Qingrang carefully inquired about Jiang Ranxing's condition from the doctor.
The doctor said, "Mr. Wen, if Ms. Jiang's condition continues as it is, it is appropriate to transfer her to another hospital. You can take Ms. Jiang to another hospital for treatment, but we need to observe her for a period of time to ensure that no accidents occur."
"Okay." Wen Qingrang nodded. "If it's ready, please let me know."
Wen Qingrang said goodbye to the doctor and returned to the ICU. The readings on Jiang Ranxing's monitors were clearly stabilizing.
Wen Qingrang's assistant asked from the side, "Mr. Wen, where are we taking Miss Jiang?"
Wen Qingrang's eyes were as calm as a still lake: "Go to a place where Fu Shenyuan can't find us."
He had to take Jiang Ranxing away to a place where Fu Shenyuan would never easily bother her again.
Wen Qingrang reached out and touched the tempered glass in front of him, silently saying, "Burning Star, you should agree with what I did, right?"
Jiang Ranxing, of course, could not answer. She lay quietly on the hospital bed, like a well-behaved sleeping beauty.
Wen Qing's gaze softened and hardened; he had made up his mind.
He would fight against anything for Jiang Ranxing's safety.
Compared to the quiet hospital intensive care unit, the Fu family's old mansion at this moment seemed to have a strange and turbulent atmosphere.
As soon as Fu Shenyuan entered, he saw a group of Fu family members led by Fu Hongkai.
Everyone seemed to be waiting for his trial and charges.
Fu Shenyuan just smiled, a smile that was both faint and bitter.
When Fu Hongkai saw Fu Shenyuan enter, he chuckled to himself, then gave everyone a look, and they all instantly understood what was going on.
Fu Hongkai said, "Shen Yuan, I'm not trying to criticize you, but how could you do such a thing? There's a limit to how much trouble you can cause. Where do you put the reputation of the Fu family? We really can't afford for your personal reasons to bring any more negative impact to the entire Fu family!"
The others chimed in, "Yeah, Shen Yuan, what you did was so wrong!" "You left your bride alone abroad, that's so bad!" "I heard you went to find your ex-wife, what do you want with her!"
Everyone kept talking, which made Fu Shenyuan even more agitated, especially when he heard Jiang Ranxing's name; he was even less willing to listen to anything else.
Fu Shenyuan asked quietly, "Second Uncle, just say it. What do you want? Don't beat around the bush. I'm not in the mood."
Fu Hongkai was slightly stunned for a few seconds when he saw his distraught appearance, and then became even more smug.
Fu Hongkai said with a wicked smile, "The Fu family's intention is for you to relinquish all your real power and change your suspension to resignation."
