Chapter 100: Dialing the Future Phone

Shen Yuan was satisfied then.

"But, any children I have in the future will never be this child."

"I am a mother, I must protect my own child,"

She suddenly pointed the scissors at Li Xuan and smiled strangely, "Don't worry, I will never be like you, giving birth without raising them!"

"Why can you just not understand a mother's painstaking efforts,..."

Li Xuan slowly collapsed onto the floor, and Shen Lan held his head, finding himself helpless in the face of this chaotic situation.

"Xiao Yuan, if you really want to give birth to it, then do it! If they don't care later, Brother will help you take care of it!"

Shen Chi suddenly made the decision, "Now that Brother has found a job, I can earn money to support you all!"

"Brother..."

Shen Yuan was instantly moved to tears by her brother's words.

But Si Rong, who was preparing to enter the ward, felt that something was wrong.

Shen Chi was not a good brother.

Although it could not be seen on the surface, as someone who had been taking care of the two of them at close quarters, Si Rong felt that Shen Chi's personality was more like Shen Lan's.

He spoke very nicely, but whether he would actually do the deed was another matter.

Shen Chi had suddenly started with sweet talk; it was very likely he was starting to scheme something again.

Shen Yuan, having let down her guard against Shen Chi, slowly lowered the scissors in her hand as her brother approached.

Then she leaned into her brother's embrace and cried in relief.

They were fraternal twins, born of the same mother.

Shen Yuan felt very fortunate; fortunately, she still had her brother.

Just at this moment, the back of her neck suddenly felt a sharp pain.

Shen Yuan widened her eyes in disbelief.

Then she fainted.

This turn of events stunned everyone, including the group of nurses.

They all suddenly began to feel some sympathy for this young girl.

"What are you standing there for?" Shen Chi glared at Li Xuan with dissatisfaction, "Send her into the operating room."

"Okay, okay, I'll go right now!" Li Xuan immediately called the nurses to help Shen Yuan up, "Hurry and start the surgery!"

Si Rong closed the ward door, shutting out the noise from outside.

Even though she was mentally prepared, she still felt that Shen Chi's personality was somewhat too ruthless.

That was his own sister.

He was able to lay a hand on her, and he had more methods than both Shen Lan and Li Xuan.

A person like this would surely come to no good end if anyone offended him.

She couldn't help but think of her future self again.

It had been a long time since she had received a call; she wondered how things were over there.

"What are you thinking about?"

Jiang Cheng held her slightly cool hand that was resting on her lap.

"I want to install another phone in our bedroom, is that okay?"

Si Rong held his hand back, asking for his opinion.

Now that she had moved to the Jiang Family, what if the Future Phone rang again and she couldn't answer it?

Although she couldn't figure out the catalyst for that phone call, Si Rong felt it would be more reassuring to have the phone by her side.

However, what if Jiang Cheng heard it?

A matter like receiving a Future Phone was too bizarre; if Jiang Cheng discovered it, would he think she had mental problems?

"Okay." Jiang Cheng felt there was no problem, assuming Si Rong wanted it to be more convenient to talk to her family or friends later, "Then I'll have someone install it later."

"No need, I want to move that phone from Zhangshu Street over here."

Si Rong felt that other phones likely wouldn't be able to receive the Future Phone.

"Okay."

Jiang Cheng had no objections.

After the three bottles of medicine were finished, it was already late at night.

Si Rong fetched hot water and helped Jiang Cheng wipe his hands and face.

"Thank you, Mrs. Jiang."

Jiang Cheng lowered his eyes to look at the top of her head, enjoying this tender moment that belonged only to the two of them.

"You're welcome, Division Commander Jiang."

Si Rong had him take his temperature again; fortunately, his temperature was already normal.

Just as she was preparing to sleep, someone knocked on the door.

It was Shen Chi.

He spoke before Si Rong could, "I'll only say a few words."

"You ran into Xiao Yuan the night she had her accident, right? In fact, if you had spoken up to dissuade her back then, then this wouldn't have happened. The child in Xiao Yuan's belly has already been successfully aborted, which is to say, this child died because of you."

After finishing, he left with a smile.

Tonight, Si Rong wouldn't be able to sleep well.

It wouldn't do for their household to be in a mess while Si Rong was happy and at ease, would it?

"Crazy!"

Si Rong closed the hospital room door and fell asleep quickly on the folding cot lying on the floor.

The more others wanted her to be unable to sleep at night, the more soundly she intended to sleep.

Why should she feel guilty?

If it weren't for that pair of scumbags Shen Lan and Li Xuan, she should have had no intersection with these two unlucky children at all.

If anyone should feel guilty, it should be them.

Especially these two children; having used so many good things from the Si Family since they grew up, it could be said that her heart's blood flowed through their very bones and blood.

Didn't Shen Yuan not even blink when she backstabbed her?

A person living in this world simply cannot have too high a sense of morality, otherwise, they will only make things difficult for themselves.

Sleeping until dawn, Si Rong discovered she didn't know when she had ended up in the hospital bed.

Outside, the daylight was already bright, and Jiang Cheng was sitting on the folding cot receiving an IV drip.

Si Rong:...

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

Jiang Cheng pointed at the insulated lunch box on the bedside table, "Waking up now is just right; this is breakfast sent by Jiang Yu."

Although that guy always spoke without any seriousness in front of him, he was still very thoughtful and meticulous when doing things.

"Have you not eaten yet?" Si Rong washed up briefly in the bathroom, then opened the insulated container, "Huh? Why is there only one set of utensils?"

Jiang Cheng:...

He took back his previous statement.

That bad-hearted guy Jiang Yu must have done it on purpose.

"It's fine, you eat first," Jiang Cheng said.

In any case, he didn't mind the utensils Rongrong had used.

Si Rong used short chopsticks to pick up a pan-fried bun, first handing it to Jiang Cheng's mouth, and fearing it would drop, she used her hand to catch it, "You eat first; Division Commander Jiang has worked hard, still having to carry me while sick in the middle of the night."

She was referring to the matter of herself being moved from the folding cot to the hospital bed in the middle of the night.

Jiang Cheng finished eating the pan-fried bun before answering, "Not hard work, it was the right thing to do."

He was worried that sleeping on the folding cot would be uncomfortable for Rongrong.

Si Rong wanted to laugh looking at his earnest expression while explaining, and fed him another pan-fried bun, blinking her eyes as she asked, "Then am I heavy? Did I tire out Division Commander Jiang?"

The tips of Jiang Cheng's ears turned red unhelpfully.

"Not heavy, not too heavy."

Si Rong gave a coquettish hum, "Then it seems I am still a little heavy."

"No, I misspoke, it's not heavy at all," Jiang Cheng quickly corrected himself.

Si Rong was satisfied then, and she picked up a pan-fried bun for herself to eat.

Jiang Cheng watched her use the chopsticks he had used, the corners of his lips uncontrollably curling upward.

Si Rong drank the millet porridge first; after she finished, she went to the bathroom to wash the spoon before feeding Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng wanted to say something but stopped.

Jiang Cheng stayed in the hospital for two days for this minor illness, and during this period, their most intimate scene happened in the restroom.

At the time, he was receiving an IV and wanted to go to the restroom, so Si Rong helped him hold the medicine.

One person was outside the door, and one person was inside.

Then, the moment the door opened, he kissed Si Rong's forehead.

The two looked at each other for a while, and then kissed in the ambiguous atmosphere.

Of course, happiness is not that easy.

They had barely kissed for a moment before being interrupted by the nurse coming to pull the needle.

After being discharged from the hospital, Jiang Cheng went to the troops to lead new recruits under the orders of Director Chen.

Chen Shuo emphatically showed off in front of Jiang Cheng the process of his wife taking him to eat at a buffet.

"Your sister-in-law won't let me eat greasy food! I didn't even get to eat two extra pieces of braised pork!"

"Your sister-in-law makes me eat more fruit; I did eat quite a bit of cantaloupe!"

"Damn it! Women are just too controlling! It's so annoying! Does my little sister Rongrong manage you like this?"

Jiang Cheng:...

If you keep nagging, go lead the new recruits yourself!

Si Rong went to Zhangshu Street and moved that phone into the Jiang Family bedroom.

Unsurprisingly, she prepared to live in the Jiang Family for a period of time.

The sunset glow shone on the phone, as if plating the phone with a unique luster.

This scene seemed somewhat familiar.

The previous two times she received a Future Phone call, this phone seemed to have emitted this same luster.

Si Rong closed the bedroom door, then picked up the phone receiver.

Could she dial her future self?
