Nan Shiran threatened Ye Jingchi to kill Li Ying, or she would shoot Chenchen.
"Nan Shiran, you truly will never repent, even in death!"
Nan Shiran was somewhat confused: "What do you mean by that?"
Suddenly, the entire scene was surrounded, including not only police officers but also members of the Nan family.
"Nan Shiran, your plan has failed. Lay down your weapons!"
Nan Shiran couldn't believe it: "Impossible! My plan was flawless. Where did it go wrong?"
Nan Shiran turned her head to look at Diudiu standing beside her and questioned, "Was it you? Did you betray me?"
Diudiu clutched the hem of her clothes and said timidly, "Diudiu is a good child. Diudiu likes Chenchen and Aunt Ying. Diudiu doesn't want anything to happen to them."
"Bastard!" Nan Shiran said, raising her gun and pointing it at Diudiu.
With a gunshot, Nan Shiran was shot in the forehead and collapsed to the ground.
Diudiu looked at Nan Shiran, who was lying on the ground with her eyes open, and knelt down to kowtow to her.
"This child is kind and loyal," Ye Jingchi praised.
Jing Yingyan nodded: "Don't worry, I will treat her like my own daughter."
However, the Nan family disagreed because Nan Huaiyu was infertile, so Xiuying wanted to keep Diudiu by her side.
Jing Yingyan didn't compete with the Nan family for Diudiu, and gave Diudiu to the Nan family because he would be much happier with the Nan family than with him.
After half a month of raids and investigations, the criminals organized by Nan Shiran were quickly apprehended one by one, and Nan Shiran's small group collapsed.
Jiangcheng has become the same as before.
Ye Jingchi and Jing Yingyan collaborated to bring economic prosperity to Jiangcheng, which was recognized as one of the advanced cities the following year.
At this time, Li Ying was also about to give birth.
Inside the hospital, outside the delivery room, Ye Jingchi paced anxiously back and forth.
"Dad, you're walking around so much, it's making me dizzy," Chenchen complained, frowning as she sat in the chair and looked at Ye Jingchi.
"Chenchen, what can I do to make up for what I owed your mother during her recent delivery?"
"Then you can take care of her during her postpartum period," Chenchen suggested, tilting her head.
"You're right, taking care of a new mother. Dad will learn how to take care of a new mother starting today."
The delivery room door opened, and a nurse came out carrying a baby, smiling and saying, "Congratulations, it's a baby girl."
Ye Jingchi was overjoyed and carefully took the child in his arms.
"I have a daughter! I have a daughter!"
Chenchen was a little disappointed: "Isn't it nice to have a son? I see other people are happy to have sons."
"You don't understand, this is called having both a son and a daughter."
Ye Jingchi was overjoyed.
"There's one more."
The nurse brought out another child: "These are two daughters."
"Great! Great! Good things come in pairs." Ye Jingchi was so happy he couldn't stop smiling.
Chenchen, however, looked unhappy.
Alan didn't need the things she had prepared, but she was very happy because Li Ying had given birth to two daughters.
On the day of his discharge, Yinshu and Chi En from the capital city arrived, as did the Ye family from Tongcheng.
Especially Grandma Ye, who is quite old, insisted on taking the train to visit Li Ying, which made Li Ying very happy.
Since there wasn't enough room at home, Grandma Ye stayed there, while the others stayed at the guesthouse.
Tang Qiao wanted to stay and take care of her during her postpartum period.
"Mom, I will take leave to take care of Li Ying."
“You’re a grown man, you don’t know anything about serving people, I’ll do it. Anyway, I have nothing to do at home.” Tang Qiao decided to stay this time.
"Where's your older brother? Doesn't his child need your care?"
Ye Jingchi had heard that his elder brother's wife was also pregnant, and that the foreign heiress's heart condition had improved a lot.
“They have a full-time nanny, so they don’t need me. What, you’re not thinking of getting a full-time nanny too?” Tang Qiao asked.
Ye Jingchi thought that he couldn't let Tang Qiao be sad, so he agreed.
Every few days, Tang Qiao would see eggs in paper baskets outside her house, but she didn't know who sent them.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Li Ying got out of bed and started walking as soon as she was able to move.
"Look, I don't know who it is, always leaving eggs at the door." Tang Qiao didn't see anyone coming over either.
Li Ying looked at the egg and smiled: "This egg is edible."
"Do you know who sent it?" Tang Qiao pressed.
Li Ying asked with a smile, "Mom, didn't you know?"
Tang Qiao thought for a moment and guessed: "You mean, these eggs belong to Jingchi's father..."
Li Ying nodded.
Tang Qiao went out again, but didn't see anyone.
"Since he's here, why doesn't he come inside and take a look?" Tang Qiao felt that Ye Jingchi wouldn't be so heartless as to let him see the child.
“I think there must be a reason why he didn’t come in. He doesn’t want to put Jingchi in a difficult position, nor does he want to cause trouble for us,” Li Ying explained.
Tang Qiao sighed: "You know, the mistakes of the elders have left the younger generation in an awkward position."
Alan brought Chenchen back.
"Sister Ying, how many tables are you planning to prepare for this full moon celebration?" Alan went to ask someone about the full moon celebration early in the morning, and then discussed it with Li Ying when she came back.
Li Ying didn't plan to hold a full-moon celebration, after all, this was her second child, and given Ye Jingchi's position, she didn't want anyone to have anything to say about it.
Li Ying shared her thoughts, and everyone agreed that they made sense.
After her postpartum period, Li Ying didn't stay idle. Since she was going to be based in Jiangcheng, she decided to open her clinic there.
Upon hearing that Li Ying was going to open a clinic, Chi En and Yin Shu wanted to come along, but Li Ying refused.
"The medical clinics in the capital still need you, but I am enough here."
Chi En and Yin Shu then gave up their idea of coming to Jiangcheng.
Li Ying noticed that the relationship between Chi En and Yin Shu was somewhat subtle, and asked with a smile, "Chi En, your father wants you to get married this year. Have you made up your mind?"
Chi En scratched her head and smiled, "I've decided, we'll get married this year."
Li Ying looked at Yin Shu again, her cheeks flushed.
"I understand. I'll definitely give you a big red envelope then."
This was something Li Ying never expected; Chi En would fall for the carefree Yin Shu, perhaps because she didn't find it tiring to be around him.
Everyone returned to their own family lives, and Li Ying's clinic successfully opened.
Ye Jingchi specially bought over ten thousand yuan worth of firecrackers to celebrate the grand opening.
Looking at the crackling firecrackers on the ground, Li Ying hoped that her future days would be as vibrant and colorful as these firecrackers.
Ye Jingchi held Li Ying's hand tightly, and said with great emotion, "Yingying, we've been through so much together, and I'm so glad that we've finally made it this far."
"Yes, so many times I thought I might be alone for the rest of my life, but I never expected to have you, to have children, to have such a happy big family. More importantly, I have a clinic that makes me feel less empty."
"What do you think it would feel like if, when we're old, we could walk hand in hand in the bright sunshine, just like we do now?"
Li Ying pursed her lips: "That's the most beautiful scene in the world!"
Their hands clasped even tighter.
The End
