One looked at him deeply, and after a while, mustered up the courage to say, "She's gone."
"What did you say?" Mu Jiuchen stood up abruptly, gazing at him gloomily. He clenched his fists, barely restraining the urge to hit him.
One did not hide anything; this matter could not be hidden.
Nor could it remain hidden!
But for him to say it, he felt it was cruel.
"J is gone. Her condition worsened, and she was directly transferred abroad before dawn. Doctor Rick is escorting her, so you don't need to worry."
"You tell me not to worry? That's my woman, my wife, the mother of my child. You tell me not to worry? Did you send her away with my consent?"
Mu Jiuchen roared at One. His handsome face was burning with rage, terrifying to behold!
Jiang Nuan was gone, and he was still here dreaming. Mu Jiuchen suddenly remembered the scene in his dream.
Nuan Nuan said, "Mu Jiuchen, I love you. Wait for me to come back?"
It was as if all the strength in Mu Jiuchen's body was instantly drained.
He looked at Jiang Nuan, disoriented, as she lay across the hospital bed, asking, "Why didn't you wake me up?"
One did not expect him to accept it so easily and said, "If I had woken you up, you would have been even more distressed. J was seriously injured. The cliff was so high. She only survived because she had professional training. It's already a miracle that she's alive. As long as there's a shred of hope, we will never give up on her."
"There's a tricky problem right now. Yang Tiancheng has escaped. This poses a danger to you, the children, the Lu family, and the Rong family. Moreover, these are all people Jiang Nuan cares about. You should protect them well now and wait for Jiang Nuan's return."
"Rick has a way to cure Jiang Nuan. Jiang Nuan is the number one J in our Dark Night. We will do our best to heal J."
After speaking, One handed him a business card, a classic white card with gold lettering.
"This is my private number. I will inform you as soon as there is any new development in J's condition. If you want to know her current situation, I will also have someone send me photos and then forward them to you."
"How many days will the treatment take?" Mu Jiuchen asked, suppressing the pain in his heart.
He would wait for her to return!
She had said, "Mu Jiuchen, I love you. Wait for me to come back." Therefore, he would wait quietly for her to return.
He would be alright, so she could focus on her treatment with peace of mind.
One's gaze flickered. He said in a low voice, "I also hope she gets better quickly. But as you know, her condition is very complex. Her life is saved, but recovery depends on her. We are doing our best to help her wake up. You know her medical skills. As long as she wakes up and cooperates with Old Yang, her recovery will be faster."
Mu Jiuchen slowly reached out to take the business card and walked out, limping.
One watched his tall and upright back. His steps were somewhat unsteady. His leg was also fractured and not yet fully healed. Every step was agonizingly painful, yet he endured it.
His back looked desolate and lonely, and One's heart also ached fiercely.
To ensure Jiang Nuan's smooth departure, they had lit incense in the room, allowing Mu Jiuchen to sleep soundly, so that Jiang Nuan could be sent away without his knowledge.
Her injuries were indeed too severe. It was uncertain if she would survive. This way, it would give him a reason to live.
A man who would jump with Jiang Nuan truly loved her.
Mu Jiuchen arrived at the entrance and saw the three children returning after finishing breakfast.
"Daddy."
"Daddy."
Jiang Yukuo and Jiang Shaoqing knew the truth from their sister. The two brothers felt particularly guilty, and even calling out to their father was in a very soft voice.
Mu Jiuchen was relieved to see that his two sons were fine.
Mu Jiuchen took his daughter's small hand and said in a low voice, "Let's go, Daddy will take you home. We'll wait for Mommy to come back."
The three siblings also knew that their mother had been sent abroad for treatment.
Jiang Shaoqing looked at his sad father and said with great certainty, "Daddy, Mommy will come back. Believe me. I told Daddy before that Daddy and Mommy's love would be difficult."
Mu Jiuchen looked deeply at his son. Nuan Nuan had said that their son had special abilities. At this moment, he truly believed his son, and that his Nuan Nuan would return.
"Okay! Daddy believes you. We'll wait for your mother to come back together."
The three brothers nodded heavily. They were sad, but they didn't show it at all.
If they showed too much emotion, their father would not be able to bear it.
At the hospital entrance, One and Old Yang watched Mu Jiuchen leave with the children. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
One said, "I didn't expect him to be so agreeable?"
Old Yang looked in the direction Mu Jiuchen had left and replied, unrelatedly, "Those three children are good seedlings. If cultivated from a young age, they will surely achieve great things in the future."
One looked at him and smiled, "You have an idea again. But I know J wouldn't bear to, as there are dangers everywhere."
Old Yang slowly retracted his gaze and looked at the pale-faced One. "Let's go back and sleep before we leave. I'll go see Old Jiang. He just narrowly escaped death, so we can't let him lose his life again."
One nodded. "We should go see the old man. You go ahead. I'll arrange the private jet. We'll leave when you come back. By the time we arrive, J's second surgery should be out of the operating room."
Old Yang nodded and left.
Mu Jiuchen took the children to the Lu family. This was where Nuan Nuan's biological parents lived. He brought the children to meet them. When Jiang Nuan left, she told Jin Yan that she would bring the children to see her.
Jin Yan opened the door. Overnight, she seemed to have aged several years; she looked utterly haggard.
Seeing Mu Jiuchen, she then looked behind him, not seeing Jiang Nuan, only seeing him with the three children.
"Nuan... Nuan?" The three words were choked, unable to be spoken, yet she held onto the last sliver of hope.
Mu Jiuchen looked at Jin Yan and said, "Nuan Nuan has been sent abroad for treatment."
Lu Chensi also walked over. Seeing Mu Jiuchen with the three children, he said excitedly, "Come in quickly."
Jin Yan weakly stepped aside, and Lu Chensi supported her inside.
Mu Jiuchen entered the living room and saw Jiang Xingyu and Nan Zhou still there.
"Uncle Nanzhou." The three siblings ran to Nan Zhou, their eyes reddening.
Nan Zhou picked up Jiang Siyun and looked at Jiang Yukuo and Jiang Shaoqing, not knowing how to comfort the three of them. He already knew that Jiang Nuan had been urgently sent abroad.
"It's okay, it's okay. You still have Daddy, and you still have Uncle."
Jiang Xingyu also looked at the three siblings and said, "And your maternal uncle."
The three siblings nodded heavily, holding back their tears so they wouldn't fall.
Mu Jiuchen looked at Lu Chensi and his wife, as well as the three Lu Jinyue brothers, and said, "These are my and Nuan Nuan's children, triplets: Yukuo, Shaoqing, and Siyun."
Mu Jiuchen waved to the three children and said, "Come here, say hello to your maternal grandfather, maternal grandmother, and three uncles."
"Grandpa, Grandma, Uncles, hello."
The three little ones spoke in unison.
The Lu family's eyes immediately turned red.
Lu Chensi walked over and hugged the three siblings. The entire family couldn't help but cry.
Only Mu Jiuchen watched the scene before him blankly.
