The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Chapter 44

Zhang Lianggui noticed Jiang Moxi’s dilemma and persuaded her.

"Four years! In these four years, Mr. Feng hasn’t been able to do anything or feel anything, it’s really no different from being dead. If he could choose for himself, I think he would also choose to seize the chance for a rebirth..."

Zhang Lianggui still remembered when he first met Jiang Moxi four years ago, her face was clean and pretty.

At that time, when she filled the hospital admission form for Feng Ming, she wrote her own name in the family member section.

Actually, not only the other medical staff but also Zhang Lianggui felt this girl couldn’t possibly bear such high medical costs.

Thus, Zhang Lianggui even advised Jiang Moxi, telling her that Feng Ming’s injuries were so severe, there was basically no possibility of him waking up, hinting that the wisest decision would be to give up treatment.

But sixteen-year-old Jiang Moxi told him with a resolute look in her eyes: "As long as he is still breathing, I will not give up."

Later, Jiang Moxi really did as she said, transferring money into Feng Ming’s medical account punctually every month.

Four years, millions in medical expenses, she had shouldered until now.

Over these years, Zhang Lianggui watched her gradually grow up, concealing her beautiful features step by step.

Zhang Lianggui learned quite a bit from her, and started to treat her as his friend.

Whenever there was a new treatment plan, he would discuss it with her, just like today.

However, unlike usual, this time the program had already had successful cases, so Zhang Lianggui especially hoped that Jiang Moxi would give it a try.

If successful, Feng Ming would wake up, and the heavy shackles on her would be broken.

If it failed, then Feng Ming would also be liberated...

After listening to Zhang Lianggui’s words, Jiang Moxi closed her eyes for a long while.

During this period, her mind flashed with images of Feng Ming once being spirited and superior over anyone in Emperor City.

Just as Zhang Lianggui said, if Feng Ming could choose for himself, being such a proud person, how could he allow himself to live the rest of his life in such an undignified state?

After a long silence, when Jiang Moxi opened her eyes again, her voice was hoarse and didn’t sound like hers: "Yes, proceed with the surgery."

Success or failure, let fate decide!

But regardless of the outcome, she would not let go of any of his enemies...

Zhang Lianggui was happy when Jiang Moxi agreed to the surgery.

Because currently, the various data of Feng Ming were indeed very close to that of the vegetative patient who was successfully awakened by the electrode implant before.

Therefore, to some extent, the success rate of this surgery was quite high; it all depended on how strong Feng Ming’s will to live was.

After some discussions, Feng Ming’s surgery was scheduled for next Friday.

Still, Jiang Moxi was ultimately afraid of losing Feng Ming, so she stayed almost inseparably in the hospital before the surgery.

Night came, and Fu Youhan once again arrived at Night Color.

Previously, he did not enjoy such places of nightlife; he would rather sit alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows at home with a drink, instead of coming to such a place.

But somehow, recently during the evenings, he found himself unconsciously drawn to this place.

However, tonight, after sitting in the private room for a long time, Jiang Moxi did not show up.

Thus, having already opened a few bottles of wine in the room, he ordered a few more bottles of ’82 Lafite.

After ordering the wine, he waited quietly for Jiang Moxi to appear.

But after waiting for a long time, Jiang Moxi did not show up; instead, Yu Dingding pushed open the door of the private room and walked in.

Yu Dingding, dressed in a golden fishtail gown, moved with allure.

Yet there was no expression on the beauty’s face; when she entered the private room, she just politely nodded to Fu Youhan and Ye Chen.

"Come here, light my cigarette." Ye Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, smiling ambiguously.

Yu Dingding was neither sad nor happy, her heart as calm as still water.

She just thought that Ye Chen probably had a disability in his arms and legs, that he couldn’t even light a cigarette himself, and had specifically had her brought from the eighth floor to do it.

Nevertheless, she obediently lit the cigarette for Ye Chen, without looking anywhere else.

After making her order, she turned to leave the private room.

"You’re going somewhere else?" Ye Chen’s face, which wore a half-smile, instantly turned expressionless.

"I’m going to the eighth floor, Mr. Chen and Mr. Wu are waiting for me!"

Yu Dingding’s face was expressionless too, looking at Ye Chen without a trace of emotion.

But Ye Chen’s face darkened immediately: "So you’re serving others now, got addicted to it, have you!"

He had Yu Dingding go to the eighth floor to serve others, intending to let her experience hardship and then come back to apologize to him.

But, unexpectedly, after Yu Dingding went to the eighth floor, she vanished without a trace.

It was only when he asked the manager of the eighth floor a couple of days ago that he learned she was still thriving there.

Several of the top people in Yan City had become her devoted followers.

Every day, jewels and designer bags were gifted non-stop, not to mention alcohol and flowers.

Furious, he could only get drunk by himself and have her take care of him, giving her a way out.

He thought that after yesterday’s incident, the matter would be ambiguously handled.

But today, right when he gets to the ninth floor, this woman runs off to the eighth floor again.

Even now, even though he called her over to light his cigarette—clearly wanting her to stay—he was completely ignored; she even planned to go back to the eighth floor to accompany other men!

Look, he’s this furious, and yet Yu Dingding remains so unbothered.

"You arrange how you wish, and I’ll just work accordingly."

Ye Chen suddenly felt that God must be intending Yu Dingding to humble him, seeing his days were too good.

"Fine, Yu Dingding, you’re really something." He said bitterly annoyed.

"Mmm, thank you for the compliment." Yu Dingding nodded in thanks and then added, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work."

Ye Chen roared: "Get lost! And better not come back up here ever again."

Without hesitation, Yu Dingding pulled open the door of the private room and left.

Once she was gone, Ye Chen began to down one glass after another.

Yet even the harsh liquor couldn’t wash away the bitterness in his mouth.

After he had drunk three glasses, Fu Youhan said, "If you’re touched, just admit it generously."

"Who’s touched?" Ye Chen retorted coldly.

Then he remembered the Lafite Fu Youhan had ordered earlier and sneered, "You’re the one who’s touched, don’t project it onto me."

"How am I touched?" Fu Youhan gave him a cold glance.

The latter, with a mocking smile on his lips: "Otherwise, why would you order so much alcohol? This place can surely afford your drinking."

The table was already laden with over a dozen bottles of liquor.

Even if the two of them drank till they dropped, they wouldn’t finish it all.

So, Fu Youhan definitely had motives other than the alcohol!

"You think too much. I just suddenly felt like drinking Lafite..."

Fu Youhan said this, but his eyes involuntarily glanced towards the door of the private room.

"Fine, I hope I’m overthinking it. Because these few days, no matter how much more alcohol you order, it won’t be opened by a certain someone."

Ye Chen’s words made Fu Youhan’s brows furrow lightly: "Why? Did she quit?"

"No, she took a week off."

Ye Chen even "tsked" a couple of times.

He didn’t specify who, yet Fu Youhan instantly caught on; wasn’t this being emotionally involved?

"A week off? What for?" Fu Youhan asked again.

Ye Chen pulled up a sly smile: "How should I know? I’m not the one who’s touched!"

Fu Youhan: "..."
