Chapter 132: The Yang Family Cancels the Engagement
“This… how is this possible!”
“This violates the laws of medicine!”
At this moment, Jiang Wenjie felt his worldview shaken.
A person who was on the verge of death, or rather, someone who had already stopped breathing and had no heartbeat, had come back to life before his eyes.
This scene would shock anyone who saw it.
While there had been some patients who exhibited signs of apparent death before, Su Qing Li’s situation was completely different from theirs.
Those patients appeared to be in a state of apparent death because they were almost at the end of their lives.
But Su Qing Li had not even escaped the danger of death; she was still hemorrhaging.
In such cases, once the heart and breathing stopped, death could be confirmed with one hundred percent certainty.
How could there be a possibility of apparent death?
However, what Jiang Wenjie did not know was that Bai Chen was not a doctor.
He was an immortal cultivator!
Using different methods was perfectly normal in his case.
Bai Chen lightly glanced at Su Zong Sheng and Su You Wei, as if he had merely accomplished an insignificant task.
“Su Qing Li’s condition has stabilized.”
“Next, you just need to have someone take care of her; I will return for another check-up when she is ready to leave the hospital, and that will be soon.”
Upon hearing Bai Chen’s words, Su Zong Sheng and Su You Wei quickly expressed their gratitude.
Su Zong Sheng even wanted to kneel down to thank Bai Chen but was supported by Bai Chen.
“Mr. Bai, I truly don’t know how to repay you!”
“Your help to our Su family is immense!”
Bai Chen smiled slightly.
“I will need your Su family’s assistance in many areas in the future, so just don’t refuse when the time comes.”
Upon hearing Bai Chen’s words, Su Zong Sheng immediately patted his chest.
“Mr. Bai! You can count on us; from now on, our Su family will follow you!”
Su Zong Sheng’s words undoubtedly indicated that the Su family would become Bai Chen’s force in the future.
Yet Bai Chen simply shook his head lightly.
“You are still yourselves, and I am still me. I will call upon you when I need you.”
At that moment, Su Qing Li finally realized that it was Bai Chen who had saved her.
While she was still in a coma, she had felt as if someone was speaking nearby, and that voice seemed familiar.
At that time, she sensed a warm current flowing through her body.
As soon as she woke up, Su Qing Li saw Bai Chen.
“Mr. Bai, thank you.”
Su Qing Li sincerely thanked Bai Chen.
However, Bai Chen just smiled lightly.
“You protected Nian Nian; I should be the one to thank you.”
“Your injury is also because of Nian Nian, so of course, I need to heal you.”
Su Qing Li felt a bit stunned upon hearing Bai Chen’s words.
Memories from before she fainted began to surface.
She remembered a bulldozer chasing her, and in the end, she ran away with Bai Nian Nian, but someone knocked her unconscious.
“Wait! How is Nian Nian?”
Seeing Su Qing Li’s anxious expression, Bai Chen smiled lightly.
“Nian Nian is safe; as for you, you need to rest and recover.”
Su Qing Li felt warmth in her heart upon hearing this.
“Mr. Bai, I understand.”
As she looked at Bai Chen, a subtle feeling blossomed in Su Qing Li’s heart.
In fact, she had felt a strange sensation when she first met Bai Chen.
However, after learning that Bai Chen had a family and children, she buried those feelings deep inside her heart.
But today, when she faced life and death, it was Bai Chen who had saved her.
The first person she saw upon waking was also Bai Chen.
All these experiences deepened her feelings for Bai Chen.
She once thought that if she buried these feelings, she would slowly forget them.
But as she spent more time with Bai Chen, those feelings gradually deepened and brewed.
Perhaps one day in the future, she would no longer be able to hold them back.
After leaving the hospital, Bai Chen returned home.
Bai Nian Nian had already woken up, and as soon as she saw Bai Chen come back, she couldn’t help but rush into his arms.
Seeing Bai Nian Nian cling tightly to his leg, Bai Chen gently picked her up.
At that moment, Bai Nian Nian’s eyes were red, and tears were brewing inside them.
“As soon as Nian Nian woke up, she kept asking for her dad; she thought you didn’t want her anymore,” Nan Yue Ran said.
Bai Chen felt a twinge of pain in his heart upon hearing Nan Yue Ran’s words.
“How could Dad not want Nian Nian?”
“This time it was Dad’s fault; from now on, Dad will personally pick you up from school.”
Bai Nian Nian didn’t respond; she just pouted and leaned against Bai Chen’s chest.
Bai Chen could feel his chest slowly becoming wet.
After comforting her for a while, Bai Nian Nian finally stopped crying.
With everything that happened today, Bai Nian Nian soon fell into a deep sleep again.
After she slept, Bai Chen took out the wooden token.
The Ban on it did not trigger, which left Bai Chen feeling somewhat helpless.
If he strengthened the Ban to keep even ordinary people away from Bai Nian Nian, he could certainly do that.
But doing so would also affect Bai Nian Nian’s normal life.
This was undoubtedly more harmful than beneficial.
“It seems I have to wait until Nian Nian masters her powers; then, no one will be able to threaten her.”
The next morning,
Nan Jiang Hong suddenly called for a family meeting, demanding that all members of the Nan family attend.
Nan Yue Ran did not want to go, but after Nan Zhan Fei urged her several times, she reluctantly went along.
On her way out, she also made sure to drag Bai Chen along with her.
When Nan Yue Ran and Bai Chen arrived at the Nan family courtyard, the atmosphere felt tense.
Nan Jiang Hong looked around, and when he saw that most people had gathered, he cleared his throat.
Beside him, Nan Xuan Fei yawned.
“Grandpa, what’s so important that we had to gather so early? Hurry up and say it; I want to go back to sleep.”
Nan Jiang Hong fixed his gaze on Nan Xuan Fei without saying a word.
Seeing this, Nan Xuan Fei couldn’t help but shiver, and she felt much more alert.
“The Yang family told me today that they want to break off the engagement.”
When Nan Jiang Hong spoke, all the members of the Nan family stood frozen in place.
Nan Xuan Fei had not yet reacted.
“The Yang family is breaking off the engagement? Grandpa, with whom are they breaking the engagement?”
Nan Jiang Hong remained silent, just looking at Nan Xuan Fei.
At that moment, Nan Xuan Fei’s body trembled, and her eyes went blank.
An indescribable fear began to fill her heart, enveloping her completely.
The Yang family wanted to break off their engagement with the Nan family.
But currently, she was the only one in the Nan family engaged to the Yang family.
So, did that mean the Yang family was breaking off their engagement with her?
Realizing this, Nan Xuan Fei felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her legs turned weak, and she couldn’t help but collapse to the ground.
She had often fantasized about marrying into the Yang family!
Everything she had in the Nan family was because she was Yang Ling’s fiancée.
And on the outside, she never considered herself a member of the Nan family!
Instead, she always told others that she was Yang Ling’s fiancée!
This made everyone treat her with great respect wherever she went.
It gave her immense vanity!
But now, with the Yang family breaking off the engagement, everything she possessed would also vanish like smoke.
“It’s impossible! This can’t be true! Yang Ling loves me so much! How could he break off the engagement with me!”
“Grandpa, tell me this is a lie! I don’t believe it!”
However, Nan Jiang Hong only replied lightly,
“The Yang family is coming soon; they will break off the engagement in person.”
