In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 171: There’s a Heartbeat Now

Xu Jinzhi watched herself with a bewildered look as Xie Yanchuan smiled at her, then leaned in and kissed the corner of her lips. frёewebηovel.cѳm

"Jinzhi, let’s go back," Xie Yanchuan said.

Xu Jinzhi hadn’t had the chance to ask anything before Xie Yanchuan pushed her out with one hand.

She stared wide-eyed at Xie Yanchuan who continued to look at her with a tender smile.

She didn’t understand what was happening at all.

In just a moment of distraction, Xu Jinzhi felt the light in front of her eyes was extremely dazzling, as if a light was shining directly into her eyes.

Xu Jinzhi squinted instinctively, and at this moment, the sounds around her gradually became clearer.

"There’s a heartbeat!"

"Quick, the patient’s heartbeat has returned, continue the surgery!"

Xu Jinzhi blinked her eyes and then fell back into unconsciousness.

But this time, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t find Xie Yanchuan anymore, she kept calling out and walking forward, but couldn’t find Xie Yanchuan no matter how hard she searched.

She didn’t know where Xie Yanchuan had gone; she couldn’t find him.

She felt as if she had lost Xie Yanchuan.

Xie Yanchuan went to the intensive care unit to see Xu Jinzhi, watching her lying pale on the hospital bed, Xie Yanchuan couldn’t clearly identify what he was feeling inside.

He just watched her, for a long, long time before finally leaving the intensive care unit.

Then Xie Yanchuan went to the neonatal area and saw the little baby placed in an incubator.

Because he was born prematurely, Tuantuan was particularly small and frail; he couldn’t even cry out.

The doctor said observation was necessary, that he might not make it through and that the family should be prepared.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t know what kind of mental preparation he should make.

When Xu Jinzhi was sent to the hospital, he begged the doctors, repeatedly telling them, "Save my wife at all costs!"

At that time, he had given up on Tuantuan.

Xu Jinzhi was so seriously injured, he thought Tuantuan wouldn’t survive.

But Tuantuan was born, and Xu Jinzhi was also saved, yet when the doctor told him to be prepared, Xie Yanchuan felt that he couldn’t accept it at all.

He wanted Tuantuan to be okay too!

He was like a hypocrite, having given up on Tuantuan, and now unable to accept the possibility of his departure.

Outside the ward, Xu Zhen had already rushed back, and the Xie Family members had all come too, everyone’s expression looking very grim.

Xu Zhen was making a phone call on the side; this incident could not possibly be an accident!

The elevator would undergo regular maintenance, and there was a camera inside; after the incident, why hadn’t the control room noticed anything?

Because the surveillance footage had been tampered with, the dedicated elevator’s cameras were looping footage that was pre-recorded!

So, this incident could not possibly be an accident.

Xu Zhen’s face was dark as ink, an accident had happened to his precious daughter on his own territory; Xu Zhen couldn’t tolerate such a thing no matter what.

He would find that person and make them pay a heavy price.

Meanwhile, the Xie Family had already been there for several hours, having not even had lunch, and now it was nearly dinner time.

But they hadn’t left, with such a serious incident occurring, how could they possibly leave with peace of mind?

Liang Shiyu looked at everyone’s solemn expressions and silently lowered her head. She couldn’t quite describe her feelings at the moment—it seemed to be a mix of sympathy for Xu Jinzhi, given the severity of her injuries.

Yet somewhere deep down, Liang Shiyu couldn’t help but feel a tinge of schadenfreude.

Hadn’t Xu Jinzhi liked to act arrogantly in front of her?

Now she wanted to see how Xu Jinzhi could continue being arrogant!

But Liang Shiyu couldn’t show her feelings—if she dared to show them at this moment, she was sure she would suffer the consequences.

They continued to wait, waiting for Xie Yanchuan to come out. Xie Suian took the lead and asked, "How is the child?"

Xie Yanchuan didn’t know how to answer that question. He simply couldn’t bring himself to say "not good" at all.

After a moment of silent eye contact, Xie Yanchuan said in a hoarse voice, "You all should go back first, grandpa’s health isn’t good, he can’t keep waiting here."

"Besides, you haven’t eaten all day, you should all go back and rest."

At that moment, Xie Yanchuan didn’t have any energy to spare; he just wanted to wait here for Xu Jinzhi to wake up, waiting for the baby to get better.

Everyone was reluctant to leave just like that, but when Old Master Xie told everyone to go back, no one said anything further.

Xie Suian took a moment to speak with Xu Zhen before leaving.

He knew this incident wasn’t an accident, so he added, "We don’t need to stand on ceremony with each other. If there’s anything you need help with, just tell me directly."

"Mm," Xu Zhen replied with a heavy expression, nodding his head.

Not long after, Xie Suian left with the Xie Family. With such an incident happening, everyone was in low spirits, none in the mood to eat together, so they all left separately.

In the hospital, only Xie Yanchuan and Xu Zhen were left. Xie Yanchuan then urged Xu Zhen, "You should go have something to eat."

"I can’t eat." Xu Zhen bluntly said.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t press any further, as in this world, at this moment, probably only Xu Zhen and himself were most concerned for Xu Jinzhi.

So Xie Yanchuan didn’t continue to persuade Xu Zhen.

Xu Jinzhi awoke in the middle of the night.

In the ICU, apart from the machines, there were only two nurses inside. When Xu Jinzhi woke up, she stared at the ceiling, her mind a complete blank.

Only moments later, Xu Jinzhi suddenly furrowed her brows; she started to recall the events that had happened before.

Because Xu Jinzhi was so agitated, the monitor began to sound, jarringly loud in the otherwise quiet ICU.

The nurses quickly went to Xu Jinzhi’s side, realizing the patient had awakened.

Xu Jinzhi, clutching at her heart’s every uncertainty like a lifeline, tightly gripped the nurse’s arm and wouldn’t let go.

Her face anxious and voice weak, Xu Jinzhi asked, "My child, how is he now?"

She had already noticed that her once rounded belly was gone, and Xu Jinzhi remembered—the baby was only seven and a half months!

Thinking that something might have happened to Tuantuan, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t control her emotions. She breathed heavily, as if she were on the verge of expiring.

"Rest assured, your child is fine! Don’t get so worked up, your current emotional state isn’t good for your body," the nurse hurriedly said.

After speaking, the nurse then told the other, "Quickly go inform the doctor the patient has awakened, and while you’re at it, notify the family."

The other nurse immediately left, as Xu Jinzhi’s emotions continued to surge, setting off alarms on the monitoring device.
