However, everyone was looking forward to the sight of Shen Chengfeng"s lonely figure.
Yan Jun was already impatient to be the first to walk up. She pushed her son away and looked behind her. Indeed, he was alone.
Shen Yi said nervously, "Did you come out to explain the situation to us?"
"Yes." Shen Chengfeng nodded his head.
"How is the situation? Is the production going well? Do you want me to go in and help as your mother-in-law? I"ve given birth to three children after all, so I have a lot of experience now. " As she spoke, Yan Jun pulled up her sleeves and prepared to enter the pa.s.sage.
Shen Chengfeng shook his head, "Little Jing has already been sent to the ward."
"You"re done giving birth so quickly?" Yan Jun was surprised. "I was tortured by you brothers for one to two days, and she gave birth to two babies in ten minutes?"
"Mother, I haven"t been born yet. The dean told me to delay it for two more days. The situation is still fine, there"s no need to delay it."
"Can you stop panting when you speak?" Old Madam Shen then slapped the back of Shen Chengfeng"s head, "Alright, everyone can go now, there are no more children to carry today."
The research team led by Shen Chengyi was in a dilemma. They had already made all the necessary preparations, and were now preparing to retreat?
"Sir, do we need to stay in the hospital?" one of them asked.
Shen Chengyi nodded his head, "I wonder when we will be able to produce them in advance. In this period of time, everyone will be waiting for us here."
"I"ll go look for Little Jing first." Qin Ran walked down the corridor.
Xiao Yao followed closely behind, "I will accompany you."
Qin Ran glanced at him, then lowered her head, saying nothing.
Xiao Yao frowned and took the initiative to hold her hand, "Are you blaming me for not stopping Little Jing, or are you blaming me for not helping her settle the matter in advance?"
"I always thought you were omnipotent. At least, you are our mountain in front of our children, giving us the strongest barrier." Qin Ran stood in front of the elevator and pressed the up b.u.t.ton.
"If I had known things would turn out like this, I definitely wouldn"t have let those old men do it. It"s just that, Qin Ran, we don"t have the power to predict future events. I can only try my best to make up for the losses so that she won"t have any worries."
Qin Ran lowered her eyes, "I know that you have your concerns."
"What are my concerns? for fear of being deposed? " Xiao Yao placed his hands on her shoulders, "Our Xiao family doesn"t care about those false t.i.tles. I only care if my family is at peace with one another like before."
"Then will you agree to do this to Cheng Feng in the future?" Qin Ran stared fixedly at them. Would he hesitate? Would he object? Would he choose to give up on this child?
"That"s the happiness of our daughter. No matter how useless I am, I can"t hurt my child"s life. Don"t worry, the sky can"t fall, the Shen family can"t hold on, and there"s still our Xiao family."
Qin Ran pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you, Old Master."
"I am a father, and I love my children. This is a matter of course." Xiao Yuan led her to the elevator.
In the corridor, most of the crowd had dispersed.
Shen Chengyi was also planning to leave, but just as he was about to move, he felt a pair of bright eyes staring at him from behind.
Shen Chengfeng strode forward and dragged him out of the hospital.
The cold night wind blew past the pine needles in front of the hospital, and the rustling wind blew past the dead leaves on the ground, causing them to fall down one by one.
Shen Chengyi lit up a cigarette and asked, "What do you want to say now?"
"I need that experiment." Shen Chengfeng went straight to the point.
Shen Cheng"s hand trembled, he was almost burnt by the cigarette, and he laughed bitterly, "Isn"t Little Jing going to give birth soon? "Why waste this pain?"
"I can"t wait." Shen Chengfeng opened his hands, and the gloves that were originally intact suddenly turned into ashes.
Shen Chengyi"s eyes narrowed, "What happened? "It was fine just now."
"I"m afraid in another day I"ll be naked in the hospital." Shen Chengfeng"s fingers bent unnaturally.
"Cough cough, this is indeed a problem, but even if I give you an early experiment now, you won"t have anything to wear these few days."
"I can"t wait. I can only think of a way to stop the power of these hands."
Shen Chengyi stomped his head and threw it into the trash can, "Okay then, did you tell her? What if you don"t show up for a few days and she runs from the hospital to the military to get him?"
"I"ve already told her that she won"t rashly go over to find me."
"That"s good. Come with me tonight?" Shen Chengyi put his hands in his pockets, and said with a smile that was not a smile, "But aren"t you afraid that if you leave, Little Jing will give birth to her?"
"No, it"s safe in the hospital. She"ll wait for me." Shen Chengfeng walked straight towards the car park.
Shen Chengyi suddenly came back to his senses and scolded, "Stand still, don"t touch my car with your hands."
Obviously, his words were too late, Shen Chengfeng waved his hand, causing the door"s lock to fly open.
Shen Chengyi"s mouth twitched, "Don"t you know how to love your second sister? This is your new second sister-in-law, she hasn"t even spent a few days with your second brother. "
"Then you should thank me again. You can marry a new wife again."
Shen Chengyi tightly clenched his hands. He couldn"t be angry, he couldn"t be in a hurry. This devilish brat would beat him up once he was completely healed. Then, he would be the first one to kill him.
The lights in the hospital were on, and the humidifier was quietly working in the ward.
Qin Ran stood in front of the ward and looked at Xiao Yao beside her. She lowered her voice and said, "The child has been worried for the whole night. He must be hungry."
"If you didn"t tell me that I forgot she hadn"t had dinner, I would have bought her something to eat." Xiao Yao hurriedly turned around and left.
Qin Ran pushed open the door and entered alone.
Xiao Jing was still wearing her pregnancy watch, so when she heard the voice, she turned around.
"How is it?" Qin Ran could not understand these data, which were the same as the electrocardiogram. She was worried, "Does your stomach still hurt?"
"It"s also very strange. They didn"t move at all before coming here, but now that they"re all lying down, they"re all rather obedient." Xiao Jing pulled open the birth control panel on her stomach and sat up. "Grandmother, did they all leave?"
"The old lady probably has some matters to attend to. She left as soon as she heard that you had nothing to do. Maybe she has gone to the military."
"There should be other matters to deal with."
"Are you hungry? Your father went to buy you dinner. He"ll have something to eat before he goes to bed. "
"Yes." Xiao Jing looked dispirited as she lay down.
Qin Ran looked around the ward, "You don"t have to worry about the matters that happened tonight, our family will take care of it."
"Mom, I"m just a little regretful." Xiao Jing leaned against the woman"s thigh and covered the blanket. "We openly act for our country and our people, surviving on a purgatory-like battlefield. However, we were abandoned by the people we were protecting."
"The growth of a person is not how much you have gained, but how much you have lost. Child, your days will get better and better."
"But I can"t accept it." Xiao Jing sat up and looked up at the ceiling. "Mom, I feel like I"ve been abandoned by my own faith. The gun in my hand is so heavy that I can no longer hold it."
"Are you going to retire?" Instead of retreating, Qin Ran advanced and asked directly.
Xiao Jing was silent. Withdraw from the army? Should she retreat?
"Child, since you can"t bear to part with it, then don"t force yourself to hate it. It"s something you like, and not something you are forced to like in order to cater to others."
Xiao Qing clasped her hands together as she lowered her head. "You"re right. The reason why I"m a soldier is because I like this ident.i.ty of mine. I don"t work hard without a conscience to please someone."
"Since you feel that you are worthy of anyone, you don"t need to regret your previous choice."
Xiao Jing dug harder into her palm.
Qin Ran held her hand, "Mom is just a woman, and I can"t feel the despair in your heart, but I know that my child can bear this pressure. Even if the world is the opposite of you, you will still choose to persevere without hesitation."
"Knock, knock, knock." Xiao Yao carried the hot porridge out of the furnace and entered the room.
It was already close to midnight, and the whole street was empty. Xiao Yao had to walk two blocks to get a bowl of porridge.
Qin Ran opened the bowl of porridge and blew on the hot air, "Come and eat more."
Xiao Jing"s burning gaze fell on her parents. She smiled and said, "You don"t need to stay here anymore. There will be people guarding this place 24 hours a day. Go back and rest."
"How can I leave at this time? You don"t have to worry about us. It"s fine to just casually sleep on the sofa for a night." Xiao Yao took off his jacket. It was foggy outside and he had run two streets and his clothes were mostly wet.
"Old master, please rest first. I will accompany Little Jing to talk." Qin Ran looked at the sweat on his back and said with trembling hands, "I"ll ask Little Xia to go back and get you a clean set of clothes."
Xiao Yao waved his hand, "There is no need to go through all that trouble. We will be done in a moment."
Xiao Jing took the bowl of porridge and pushed her mother"s hand. She raised her eyebrows and hinted to her mother, "Quickly bring father back. If you catch a cold later, you"ll have to worry about both of them."
"Your father is not a weak man. At that time, I was still an awe-inspiring general who led his troops to battle." Xiao Yao covered his mouth and sneezed.
Qin Ran hastily stood up, "Master, you should head back. If you really catch a cold later, it will be easy for you to infect the child."
"You"re right, I"ll get a mask from the doctor." Xiao Yao stood up and prepared to leave.
Xiao Jing tugged on the corner of Qin Ran"s clothes. "Mom, you should accompany Father."
Qin Ran nodded, and picked up her coat, "Then if you have any matters, inform me immediately."
"Mm, I know the seriousness of the matter, hurry up and go." Xiao Jing finished her porridge and laid back down on the bed.
Just as Xiao Yao was about to take out his mask, he saw the figure of a person leaving the room quietly. He stepped forward and asked, "What"s wrong?"
"The child is asleep." When Qin Ran saw that most of his face was covered by a mask, she stretched out her hand to help him tidy up a bit, "Let"s go back first."
"Let Little Jing stay alone in the hospital?"
"I think my parents must have gone back to get some food. They"ll probably come back later, so we"ll come back tomorrow." Qin Ran walked towards the elevator.
Xiao Yao stood behind her, "I told my family to prepare some midnight snacks, and to eat something before going home to sleep."
Qin Ran lowered her head. When the elevator was open, she raised her head.
Seeing that she had suddenly stopped moving, Xiao Yuan stuck his head out and asked, "What now?"
Qin Ran summoned up the courage to shake his hand. In the end, she gradually increased her strength, "Master, thank you for giving Little Jing a complete home."
Xiao Yao smiled, "Thank you for saving me."
The two of them walked into the elevator at the same time. The two elevator doors slowly closed and the lights in their eyes shone brightly. There seemed to be stars twinkling in their eyes, especially bright.
The next day, the sun rose.
With the support of the two medical personnel, Xiao Jing carefully moved her body.
She walked with great effort, and her stomach was very heavy. She could not see the path beneath her feet, and every step she took seemed like a test.
"Alright, you"re up so early?" Old Madam Shen pushed open the door. Exhaustion could be seen on her face, which had remained awake all night. She surveyed the ward and asked, "Where is Yan Jun?"
"Nanny went to the lounge next door to sleep. She didn"t close her eyes all night last night. She must be tired." Xiao Jing sat back on the bed and looked at the similarly haggard old man. She hurriedly said, "Grandmother also didn"t sleep for the night?"
"He went to play chess with those old men. All of them were self-righteous, and all of them were defeated." Old Mistress Shen took a sip of her tea and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
Xiao Jing nodded, "It seems like I slept pretty well alone."
"You should sleep." Old Mistress Shen set down her teacup and said, "I"ll go lie down next door. Don"t be too hasty with your departure. There was such a big commotion last night, you need to rest up properly."
"Un, I know which one is more important. I"ll be lying on the floor right now." Xiao Jing lifted the blanket and sat on the bed.
Old Mistress Shen had been preparing to leave, but she turned back and asked, "Has Old Third told you about what happened?"
"He told me that he might not be able to come here for the next two days."
"It"s good that you know this. I"m afraid you won"t be able to see him go to the military to get people."
Xiao Jing scratched the back of her head in embarra.s.sment. "Do I look like someone who doesn"t know his place?"
"Even I am afraid of you if you don"t behave yourself." Old Mistress Shen rubbed her head and said, "I"ll be back later to accompany you for lunch."
The rest of the doctors and nurses left the ward. Xiao Jing looked outside the window quietly as birds flew by.
In the serenity of the research inst.i.tute, a strong pungent smell wafted out from the room. The people around them were all wearing gas masks, and people would occasionally go in to check on the situation.
Shen Chengyi"s expression was solemn as he looked at the screen. If this was a movie, the audience would definitely be surprised that it wasn"t a fifty cents special effect, at least it was a dollar special effect.
Just look at that white smoke with immortal qi, it was as beautiful as dry ice, and that emerald green medicinal liquid, it was extremely boiling, of course, the male lead who was currently training inside, his entire body was perfect, if he pushed the screen open at this time, how many people would lick their lips?
"Sir, it"s been three hours. Are you ready for the next step?" one of the staff asked.
Shen Chengyi shook his head, "He can still persevere. In order to ensure the success of his experiment, he will persevere as long as he can."
"I"m afraid my skin will fester if this goes on." the staff member said.
"Does this skin of his look like it"s going to rot?" If he couldn"t even poke the dagger, how could the potion he soaked in for a few hours be damaged?
The staff members, seeing that their superior had not given them an order, returned to their jobs.
Within the sealed s.p.a.ce, Shen Chengfeng clenched his teeth and endured. This sort of tempering pain was not something that an ordinary person could endure. He felt that as long as he endured this tribulation, he would be able to successfully ascend to the Immortal Realm.
"Knock, knock, knock." Shen Chengyi pushed open the door and entered.
When Shen Chengfeng heard the sound, he opened his eyes.
Shen Chengyi clicked his tongue and said, "If there were more dry heavenly thunder outside the window and this picture of yours was posted, I"m afraid that even the generals of our empire would think that they have completed the final stage of their cultivation."
"How long will it take?"
"How long can you last?" Shen Chengyi did not answer his question.
Shen Chengfeng closed his eyes again, "I don"t know, I can still hold on to my limits."
"Hold on for another hour, or two if you can."
"Can you guarantee 100% success?"
Shen Chengyi shook his head and replied without hesitation, "Only 70%."
"I want a hundred percent."
He didn"t know whether to laugh or cry, "No doctor can guarantee that their every operation will be free of risks, not to mention that this is my first time doing this experiment of yours, I should keep a low profile no matter what."
"You should know the consequences of my anger." Shen Chengfeng stood up from the liquid.
Shen Chengyi"s face sank, "Sit back."
The medicine on Shen Chengfeng"s body did not evaporate, instead it flowed down along his muscles and veins back into the water, he said, "I said I want 100%."
"Alright, alright, alright. I promise you." Shen Chengyi held his forehead with one hand, "Hold on for another two hours."
Shen Chengfeng continued to close his eyes, time flew by second by second as the clock on the wall pointed to noon.
It was still the same sealed s.p.a.ce. From morning to afternoon, then from afternoon to night, the sun finally gradually rose.
Shen Chengyi did not close his eyes for two nights. He felt a little dizzy, but he was still conscious. At this critical moment, he could not slack off at all.
"Dong, dong, dong." The sound of intense footsteps came from the corridor, and at the next moment, the door opened. "Sir, it"s a success."
