Chapter 444: Chapter 444: Waiting Moment

Ning Shoukai took a look at his mother’s face. His mother was sleeping peacefully.

"Father..." Ning Shoukai called his father.

"Oh... You are here." Ning Zhaofeng smiled weakly.

"Father, how is Mother?" Ning Shoukai was.

"She is sleeping right now." Ning Zhaofeng said.

"Sir Bai tells me that Mother will not wake up until tomorrow." Ning Shoukai said.

"Yeah. He tells me the same. I will stay here tonight taking care of your mother." Ning Zhaofeng said.

"I understand, Father. You can call me for anything." Ning Shoukai said.

"I know." Ning Zhaofeng nodded.

Ning Shoukai knew that he could not force his father to get some sleep tonight. His father would not listen to him. His father would insist on staying at his mother’s side even though his father knew that his mother would not be waking up for tonight.

....

"Father, I found out that Zhaofeng and his family had moved into the mansion at Wunan Street." Ning Chen informed Ning Yongrui.

"Are you serious, First Brother?" Ning Donghai was surprised to hear about the news.

"Yes, my servant told me about that." Ning Chen nodded.

"I don’t know that Fourth Brother has some wealth to buy the mansion at Wunan Street. I hear the property there is expensive like hell." Ning Donghai said. "I know maybe his acquaintance helps him stay at the mansion for a couple of days."

"He would return back." Ning Yongrui stated.

"What? Why?" Ning Donghai was confused.

Ning Chen glanced at his second brother. He did not know why his second brother became stupid out of sudden.

"His wife is sick." Ning Chen said.

"Oh... Yes. He probably will return to ask us for the herbs to help his sick wife." Ning Donghai remembered that.

"Father, about the competition, when it will start?" Ning Chen changed to topic since he noticed that Ning Yongrui did not want to talk about Ning Zhaofeng anymore.

"Yes, Father. Huizhong is excited to join the competition." Ning Donghai said.

"Let’s discuss that later. " Ning Yongrui said.

Ning Chen glanced at his father. He knew that his father preferred Ning Shoukai to be the heir out of the grandsons that his father had right now. That was because Ning Shoukai was the strongest. However, as for now, Ning Shoukai would not have the chance to compete since his father, Ning Zhaofeng cut ties with the Ning Family. Unlike Ning Shoukai cut ties with Ning Zhaofeng and wanted to return to the family.

However, Ning Chen did not think that Ning Shoukai would do that. Because he knew Ning Shoukai. He was filial to his parent and would never cut ties with them.

"Leave. I want to be alone." Ning Yongrui said.

"Yes, Father." Ning Donghai nodded.

"You look tired, Father. You should rest." Ning Chen said.

Ning Chen and Ning Donghao left the study room.

"First Brother, do you think that mansion belongs to Fourth Brother?" Ning Donghai asked.

"I don’t know." Ning Chen stated.

"I don’t think so. Where does he get the money to buy such a nice mansion like that?" Ning Donghai chuckled. "That mansion must be owned by his acquaintance."

Ning Donghai was convinced by his guess.

"No need for you to think about that. Just let them be." Ning Chen said before leaving Ning Donghai.

"Humph! Pretending." Ning Donghai scoffed after Ning Chen disappeared from his sight.

....

The next day arrived. It was an expecting moment for Ning Zhaofeng and his son, Ning Shoukai. Ning Zhaofeng did not sleep at all. Last night, he wiped his wife’s face. He felt hot.

He immediately asked a servant to inform Bai Xifeng about this. Hearing this, Bai Xifeng rushed over to take a look at Ruan Chu. Ruan Chu was having a fever. It was a normal effect after the treatment. However, Bai Xifeng still took down the temperature of Ruan Chu’s body since the temperature was too high.

Ning Zhaofeng took care of his wife for the whole night. He did not dare to sleep in case Ruan Chu had another fever.

It was almost noon but Ruan Chu still did not open her eyes. The father and son were worried about this. They tried to ask Bai Xifeng said.

"I tell you that she will wake up today. It can be morning, afternoon, evening or night. Just wait patiently." Bai Xifeng stated.

Hearing that answer from Bai Xifeng, the father and son could just wait by his wife/ mother’s side. Ning Zhaofeng held his wife’s hand.

"Chuchu... Can you wake up now? You can sleep again after you wake up." Nijg Zhaofeng caressed his wife’s hand.

He just wanted his wife to open her eyes and look at him once. While he was caressing his wife’s fingers, he suddenly felt some movement from his wife’s finger.

"Your mother’s finger is moving." Ning Zhaofeng said to Ning Shoukai.

"Really?" Ning Shoukai was happy to hear that. Meaning his mother was about to wake up. "Father, should we call Sir Bai?"

"Hmm... I think so too." Ning Zhaofeng said.

"Then, I will go and fetch Sir Bai." Ning Shoukai rushed out.

"Chuchu, please wake up." Ning Zhaofeng kept chanting those words.

Not long after that, Bai Xifeng came over after Ning Shoukai informed the details. When they arrived there, Ning Zhaofeng was currently crying.

"Chuchu, you finally wake up." Ning Zhaofeng said.

Ning Shoukai rushed to his mother’s side when he saw his mother already opened her eyes.
