Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Sleeping with the Devil (4)

When Dong Xin Yan rushed to the hospital, Sister in law Li was anxiously waiting outside the operating room. Upon seeing Dong Xin Yan, she quickly walked over, her face full of worry and anxiety. "Miss Dong, what are we going to do now?"

Dong Xin Yan grasped Sister in law Li’s hand. Although her own heart was also filled with anxiety and panic, she forced a slight smile to comfort her. "Sister in law Li, don’t worry. Auntie will definitely be okay."

About an hour later, the red light outside the operating room went off, and the door was pushed open as a doctor in a white coat emerged.

Dong Xin Yan immediately stepped forward, asking, "Uncle Chen, how is Auntie?"

Dr. Chen slowly removed his mask, looked at Dong Xin Yan, and reassured her, "Don’t worry, your aunt is fine now."

The heart that Dong Xin Yan had held so high slowly settled down. But before she could fully relax, Dr. Chen continued in a more serious tone, "However, your aunt suffered a serious fall this time, so you must ensure she has a proper rest. She shouldn’t overthink or experience any more stress, or it will be difficult to manage."

-

Mrs. Cheng was transferred to a regular ward, and Dong Xin Yan stayed by her side the entire time. It was completely dark outside when Mrs. Cheng slowly woke up.

Seeing her awaken, Dong Xin Yan quickly whispered, "Auntie, how are you feeling? Any better?"

Having just woken up, Mrs. Cheng’s eyes were a bit vacant, and she was somewhat dazed, muttering unconsciously about her son, "Ziyang... Ziyang!"

Every mention of Ziyang felt like the sharpest knife, stabbing deeply into Dong Xin Yan’s heart.

She had just heard from Sister in law Li that Mrs. Cheng didn’t sleep well last night and had nightmares the entire time, dreaming that Cheng Ziyang was going to prison for life and that she would never see her son again.

Then, when she woke up the next day, she was in a daze, and that’s why she missed a step on the stairs and fell down.

Dong Xin Yan unconsciously tightened her grip on Mrs. Cheng’s hand, suppressing her sadness, trying to speak softly, "Auntie, it’s Xinxin, do you see me?"

"Xinxin?"

Mrs. Cheng slowly turned her eyes towards Dong Xin Yan. After looking for a while, she seemed to gradually wake up, with undeniable disappointment passing through her eyes. But soon, she stared intently at Dong Xin Yan, strongly gripping Dong Xin Yan’s hand in return, and urgently asked, "Xinxin, when can Ziyang come out? Didn’t you say it would be soon last time? When exactly?"

When...

Last time, Dong Xin Yan could still tell Mrs. Cheng that Ziyang would be out soon.

But now... even she didn’t know if Ziyang could come out...

Mrs. Cheng kept looking at Dong Xin Yan, and upon seeing her silence, began to tremble uncontrollably, her voice filled with fear, "Xinxin, Ziyang isn’t really going to prison, is he?"

Mrs. Cheng’s fearful voice snapped Dong Xin Yan back to reality. She shook her head reflexively, forcefully suppressing her true emotions, and squeezed out a reassuring smile, "Auntie, don’t think like that. Ziyang won’t go to prison."

"Really?" Mrs. Cheng asked, half-believing, "Then when will he be able to come out?"

Facing Mrs. Cheng’s hopeful eyes, Dong Xin Yan almost couldn’t meet her gaze. She had already offended Gu Ningyi to the core; how could Gu Ningyi possibly let Ziyang go?
