Chapter 337

~4 min read 783 words

Two days later, at noon, Rong Ci and Gu Yan were on their way to the cafeteria for lunch when her phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Feng Tingshen.

Rong Ci saw who it was, hesitated for a second, and then answered: "Hello."

"Grandmother has woken up."

Rong Ci felt a surge of joy in her heart and said, "I'll come over right now."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Rong Ci said to Gu Yan, who was standing beside her waiting, "I'm sorry, I have something else to attend to, so I won't be going to the cafeteria for lunch."

Gu Yan glanced at the phone number on her screen and, seeing that she truly had an urgent matter, said, "No problem."

Rong Ci nodded and walked away quickly.

When she arrived at the hospital, Feng Tingshen, Feng Jingxin, Feng Tinglin, Sang Qian, Feng Linsong, and others were all there.

Seeing her arrive, Feng Jingxin threw herself into her arms. Feng Tingshen also looked toward her, then turned his head back to say to Old Lady Feng, "Grandmother, Xiao Ci is here."

Upon learning that Rong Ci had arrived, Old Lady Feng's face lit up with a smile, and she struggled to look toward the doorway.

Rong Ci stepped forward and took the old lady's hand: "Grandmother."

Old Lady Feng patted her hand gently, wanting to speak, but she fell back into a deep sleep before she could open her mouth.

Rong Ci looked panicked: "Grandmother—"

Feng Tingshen patted her shoulder lightly and spoke to reassure her: "Grandmother just woke up; her condition isn't very stable yet, and her energy is low. The doctor says this is a normal phenomenon, so don't worry."

Hearing this, Rong Ci finally let out a sigh of relief, but Old Lady Feng's complexion looked very poor, and she was worried it might be a final burst of energy before death, so she asked, "Then Grandmother is currently..."

Feng Tingshen said, "Although her condition hasn't completely stabilized yet, judging by what the doctor said, she should slowly improve."

The heart that had been hanging in Rong Ci's chest finally relaxed completely.

After a while, so as not to disturb the old lady's rest, Rong Ci, Feng Tingshen, and the others all walked out of the ward.

Whether it was Feng Tinglin or Feng Tingshen and the others, they had basically all received the news of the old lady waking up while on their way to eat.

None of them had eaten lunch yet.

Feng Linsong was busy with work, and during the time the old lady was hospitalized and in a coma, he had only come back to see her twice.

This time, he had specifically taken two extra days off. Seeing that everyone hadn't eaten yet, he said to Rong Ci, "Since Xiao Ci is back too, let's go have a meal with everyone."

Feng Linsong had always been very busy with work; whether before or after marriage, the number of times Rong Ci had seen him was not many.

However, from childhood to adulthood, Feng Linsong's attitude toward her had actually been acceptable.

Faced with Feng Linsong's invitation, Sang Qian and Feng Tinglin did not speak.

Their silence actually meant they did not object.

In the past, during the many years Rong Ci and Feng Tingshen were married, the number of times she had gone out to eat with the Feng family added up to less than three.

Looking back, that was already a very distant memory.

Since she and Feng Tingshen were already preparing for divorce, she wouldn't join in on the Feng family's meal, so she said, "No, I have matters to discuss at my company, let's do it next time."

Everyone could tell that this was an excuse.

Hearing this, Feng Linsong paused and glanced at Feng Tingshen.

Before Feng Tingshen could speak, Feng Jingxin lowered her head in disappointment, tugging at the small doll in her arms.

And Feng Tingshen did not try to keep Rong Ci, only saying, "I'll see you out."

Seeing her out was a pretext; in reality, he likely had something he wanted to say to her.

Rong Ci understood his meaning and said, "Sorry for the trouble."

Feng Tingshen turned back to instruct Feng Jingxin: "Miss Xin Xin, play with your uncle for a while; Daddy will be back in a moment."

"Got it." Feng Jingxin said, looking at Rong Ci with longing eyes. Rong Ci saw the reluctance in her eyes, paused her steps, and ruffled her hair: "When Mommy has time, Mommy will take you out to play."

Feng Jingxin finally became happy, grabbed the hand that had touched her head, and said, "Okay!"
