Chapter 341: Chapter 341: Whose Child Is Jiang Cheng Really?

"Wei Dong glanced at his wife who had followed closely behind and hesitated.

Li Ruofang caught her husband’s signal and sighed, "Miss Jiang, you may not know, but Ms. Xu’s condition has been very poor recently. We’ve had to admit her to the Intensive Care Unit. If she were to have an episode and harm you, we really couldn’t bear the responsibility."

Jiang Li frowned, "What happened? Wasn’t it said that her condition was quite stable? How did it suddenly worsen?"

Li Ruofang’s gaze wavered for a moment, but in the end, she did not disclose to Jiang Li that Jiang Cheng had been there. She merely explained, "It’s not uncommon for a patient’s condition to become unstable at times. We are not professional doctors, so we can’t figure out why Ms. Xu’s condition suddenly deteriorated. All we can do is fulfill our responsibilities and take the best care of her that we can."

Even if they didn’t say it, Jiang Li could guess a thing or two.

This was also one of the reasons she had suddenly decided to visit today.

Xu Ning here was a ticking time bomb. She could not let this bomb threaten her family in the slightest.

"It’s okay, take me to see her," Jiang Li stood up from the bench and said indifferently.

Her gaze was firmly uncompromising, making the people beside her involuntarily lower their heads.

Seeing this, Li Ruofang found she couldn’t say anything more and could only lead the way to the backyard.

The Intensive Care Unit was located on the top floor of the hospital’s inpatient building, where security measures were the best. Any slight movement from the patients inside, and the nurses and security guards outside would know immediately.

But although the building had exceptionally good ventilation and lighting, it always seemed to exude a chill and oppressive atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.

Jiang Li leisurely walked up to the door of the room at the very end and watched Li Ruofang open the door.

"Miss Jiang, please, this is Xu Ning’s room."

Jiang Li nodded, "Alright, wait outside for me."

"But..."

"There are no ’buts’. Don’t worry, nothing will happen to me."

Seeing the calm expression on the girl’s face, Li Ruofang reluctantly gave a few more instructions and turned away from there.

Jiang Li pushed the door open and entered before closing it firmly behind her.

The room’s curtains were tightly drawn, with only a small lamp on beside the bed providing light.

By its faint light, Jiang Li immediately saw the woman lying on the hospital bed.

The passage of time had left indelible marks on her face, making her look worn and aged, yet her originally beautiful features could not be entirely concealed.

Perhaps hearing some noise, the previously resting Xu Ning suddenly trembled on the bed and then stared in terror with wide eyes.

"It’s you again, don’t come any closer! Don’t come any closer!!!"

She shrieked a few times, sounding both fearful and angry.

Yet after seeing the visitor more clearly, she suddenly quieted down, and her cloudy eyes momentarily gained a rare clarity.

"Who, who are you?"

Jiang Li met her gaze and smiled, nodding, "You can still tell people apart, so it seems your mental state isn’t that poor. Alright then, I only have one question—"

Her eyes suddenly became deeper.

"Whose child is Jiang Cheng really?"

...

...

Saint Ambrose College.

On a tranquil afternoon, a light breeze stirred the clouds, leaving the sky a clear azure.

Beneath such fine weather, the college’s freshmen lined up in orderly rows and made their way to the grassy field behind the academy.

Behind them stood a row of stables, enclosed by black golden phoebe wood, each containing robust and well-fed horses. Some were bowing their heads to eat the expensive grass brought over from across the ocean; others were raising their heads to the sky and whinnying proudly.

The boys at the very front caught sight of these horses and were visibly excited.

"Finally, the equestrian class is here, I’ve been looking forward to this!"

"Great, I can finally show off my skills and have a real good ride today! I’m so tired of those never-ending etiquette and humanities history classes."

"Daniel, I heard you’re the best horseman in your family. You have to score the highest in this class!"

"Yes, you can’t lose to that despicable Hua Country person again. He always manages to sneak his way to first place. Let’s see how he’ll be so arrogant this time!"

Saint Ambrose College has a fiercely competitive rule which stipulates that the teacher responsible for each class must comprehensively score the students’ performance; the one who excels the most among these freshmen will be considered the undisputed best.

Only the student with the highest score at the end of the term will have the honor of being Saint Ambrose’s representative Prince, attending the Starlight Ball hosted by the British Royal Family.

Those who are admitted into Saint Ambrose College are all elites from around the world, already chosen as the "Heavenly Chosen Sons" of their respective lands. In this competition among elites, their desire to win is naturally ignited to the utmost.

Before coming here, Daniel’s count family had placed high hopes on him.

His brother was the previous Starlight Prince, and if Daniel failed to win the laurel this time, he would certainly be laughed at by his family.

Thinking of this, he glared at Zhao Lang, who was slowly approaching, his handsome face filled with provocation.

"Today, I’m determined to let my horse trample him fiercely underfoot!"

...

With the sound of a whistle, everyone received a well-trained steed.

Zhao Lang was no exception.

He caressed the shiny white horse beside him, showing an unintentional nostalgic expression.

In his past lives, he had wandered to foreign lands and worked as a horse trainer for some time.

That was almost the happiest time of his life. The racetrack’s galloping horses brought his passion and fighting spirit to a climax. He didn’t need to worry about success or failure, only ensuring that his adrenaline remained high through the constant upheaval.

So much so that later, no matter how down-and-out he was, he would always long for those fiery days.

And now, once again, he was touching these racehorses with their robust muscles.

How could he not be nostalgic?

The equestrian instructor also entered slowly on a fine horse.

After briefly explaining the rules of the class, he asked everyone to line up around the equestrian arena.

Before them lay a series of obstacles—mud pits, hurdles, and rope nets.

Their task was to successfully navigate these obstacles and reach the finish line. Whoever was the fastest would score full marks for the class.

Daniel was the first to surge forward; he whipped his white horse vigorously and dashed to the very front of the crowd in a flash of speed.

Seeing this, the others hurried to keep up.

But these princes and princesses from noble families were accustomed to sedate social riding and had never competed in such an intense race, and one by one they quickly fell behind.
