Chapter 688: Life and Death Choice

Yet he never dreamed that when he returned to the villa where the two lived alone, nearly at dawn after finishing the Contract, his wife would be lying on the floor covered in blood.

She had suffered a massive hemorrhage from an accidental fall, and she had lost consciousness before she could call him; when Jiang Chenghai returned home and found her, her breathing was already faint and her consciousness was unclear.

"Jiang Chenghai, how is Lili?" A large group of people from the Jiang Family rushed over, with Jiang Mu running at the front; she grabbed Jiang Chenghai and demanded sternly.

"She's in emergency surgery. It's all my fault; I shouldn't have left her home alone. I shouldn't have gone to discuss the Contract today; I should have taken good care of her." Jiang Chenghai was sobbing uncontrollably.

"Where is Lili? Is Lili okay?" Lili's parents and family also came running over, stumbling.

"Don't worry, in-laws, she is already in the operating room. She will be fine; they will both be fine." Jiang Mu hurriedly comforted them.

But just at this moment, the light of the operating room flickered, and a Yisheng walked out from inside.

"Yisheng, how is it, Yisheng?" The group of people lunged forward as if they had gone mad.

"When the pregnant woman was sent over, she was already in shock due to massive hemorrhage. Now... the mother is gone, and the children no longer have a fetal heartbeat. According to our assessment, the mother and children are all gone." The Yisheng's tone was very heavy: "Now I must ask for the family's opinion: should the children be removed?"

One body, three lives; the family felt as if they had been struck by lightning. Jiang Chenghai's mother-in-law went black in the eyes and fainted to the floor, and the father-in-law beside her hurriedly supported her.

"Impossible, this is impossible." Jiang Chenghai roared, grabbing the Yisheng's collar tightly: "She wasn't home when I left; she was organizing the clothes for the children. She was about to be a mother, and I was about to be a father. I was going to move into the hospital with her as soon as I finished this deal."

"She is fine, she and the children are both fine. You are talking nonsense, you quack, talking nonsense." Jiang Chenghai was nearly on the verge of collapse; he could not accept this fact.

Before he left, the whole family was still happily waiting for the arrival of the children, but he never thought that after he stepped out, the two would be separated by life and death.

"Calm down, sir. We are just asking if you want to take a look at the children..." The Yisheng tried to comfort him.

"No, she is fine, you are lying to me." Jiang Chenghai suddenly pushed the Yisheng away and rushed violently toward the operating room, and the relatives of the Jiang Family followed him inside.

The pregnant woman on the hospital bed was devoid of life; the monitor showed a flat line, and her breathing and heartbeat had both stopped.

Jiang Chenghai fell to his knees in front of the bed with a thud, grabbing the pregnant woman's hand and weeping bitterly.

"Lili, wake up, Lili. Mom has come to see you and the children. Wake up." Jiang Chenghai's mother-in-law and the others also burst into tears, and a wave of sorrow filled the hospital room.

Jiang Wei's face was pale, and his eyes were red as he watched all of this.

His older brother and sister-in-law were truly good to him. He was young and impetuous, getting into trouble more than once; every time the old man wanted to discipline him, it was his brother who cleaned up his mess, and his sister-in-law who protected him and pleaded for him before the old man.

But a family that was laughing and talking during the day was separated by life and death by night. His sister-in-law and his two unborn nephews were just gone like this?

Suddenly, he remembered Chen Yu's words. He remembered that Chen Yu had once spoken with hesitation, telling him that no matter what happened, he should call Chen Yu immediately.

Could it be... that Chen Yu had already foreseen that his family would face this disaster? And thinking of Chen Yu's methods, could he have a way to avoid this?

"Brother, have everyone step back. I am going to invite someone over now; he might have a way to save them." Jiang Wei grabbed Jiang Chenghai and shouted.

"What did you say?" Jiang Chenghai looked at him in disbelief. Now that the monitor was just a flat line, could there really be someone who could bring the dead back to life?

"Believe me, brother. My friend has a way; he definitely has a way. Wait for me, just wait." Jiang Wei said as he rushed out.

The Yisheng on the side shook his head. Had these people all gone mad? The person was already dead, and one body with three lives was a certainty. Could there really be someone who could bring the dead back to life?

Upon receiving Jiang Wei's call, Chen Yu rushed to the hospital immediately. The influence of the Jiang Clan was extraordinary; he was escorted by police cars all the way, hitting green lights the entire time, and arrived at the hospital almost without obstruction.

"Brother Yu, you're here. Save my sister-in-law."

Seeing Chen Yu arrive, Jiang Wei lunged toward him as if he had seen a savior, his eyes bloodshot: "My sister-in-law was carrying two children, and now she and the children are... gone. Brother Yu, if you can save my sister-in-law, I will be your servant for the rest of my life."

"Don't be anxious. Which one is your brother?" Chen Yu signaled for him to wait a moment.

"I am." Jiang Chenghai rose from his wife's bedside, his eyes bloodshot as he said: "Mr. Chen, Xiaowei just told me about your abilities. I beg you, you must save my wife."

Chen Yu walked to the bedside and took out the Gold Needle. With a few needles, he protected the pregnant woman's heart meridian. After all, she had stopped breathing; if this continued for long, it would cause damage to her brain and liver, and the children in her womb would be injured even more severely.

"Mr. Jiang, please stay. Everyone else, please go out." Chen Yu said.

"Why should we go out? This is my daughter, my daughter!" Jiang Chenghai's mother-in-law cried out.

"Auntie, this is Mr. Chen. He is a master, and he has many methods. Believe us, he will definitely be able to save my sister-in-law." Jiang Wei hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her: "Give him some time; he might have things to tell my brother."

"Right, in-laws, let's go out first." The group hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her, then led Jiang Chenghai's mother-in-law out. A moment later, only Jiang Chenghai and Chen Yu were left in the room.

"I can save her, and I can make her wake up. Furthermore, the two children in her belly can be born Anran and live healthily with you in the future." Chen Yu looked at Jiang Chenghai.

"If Mr. Chen can save my wife, you will be the benefactor of this Jiang. From now on, the entire Jiang Clan of Shengjing will be at Mr. Chen's disposal." Jiang Chenghai bowed deeply to Chen Yu.

He did not know Chen Yu, and he was half-doubting Chen Yu's words, but he believed that Jiang Wei would not mess around with such a matter. More importantly, his wife was already gone—one body, three lives—and even if there was only a glimmer of hope, he had to grasp it tightly.

"Don't be in such a hurry to thank me." Chen Yu waved his hand and said: "There is a price for keeping them alive."

"No matter what price must be paid, I can accept it." Jiang Chenghai said without hesitation: "Even if it means trading my life for the lives of the three of them, I am willing."

"This is not a matter of trading lives." Chen Yu shook his head and said: "Your wife, Wu Mingyue, had some unresolved grudges from her past life, so in this life, she and the children in her womb could only walk with you this far. This is the Heavenly Dao, and the Soul-Detaining Order has already been issued; her soul and the souls of the children are destined to be taken away."
