Chapter 237: 173 Furious Jiangjiang comes online, Shen Zhixian suddenly faints_2 Hardly anyone played with Jiangjiang, and during free activity time, he would just quietly bounce the ball by himself.

Even after training had ended and it was tto change and leave, when Tang Wan offered to help him, he would decline.

"I can manage on my own." It's good for children to be independent, but too much independence can be heart-wrenching.

Tang Wan had lost her mother at a young age, she could somewhat understand what he was feeling deep down, and without asking much, she took him for scake after training. The little guy seemed to be instantly healed.

Her phone buzzed, a message from Jiang Yanting, just asking about Jiangjiang's situation.

[...Sorry for troubling you today.] [No problem.] Meanwhile, Jiang Yanting was in the hospital.

Aside from the person lying in the hospital bed, Jiang Jinsang and Xie Duo were both present, like an arrow nocked and strained, as if something could burst forth at any touch.

"What's the deal with you two?" Xie Duo still wore his rimless glasses, the very picture of grace. If you were to speak of the young masters of Beijing, his demeanor would surely rank first.

"It's exactly as you see," Jiang Yanting raised an eyebrow.

"What I see?" Xie Duo gave a light scoff, "I see that you two..." Jiang Jinsang stood to the side, watching the pair, his gaze then falling on the person in the hospital bed. As their eyes met, Shen Zhixian smiled and nodded, but facing Xie Duo's mocking gaze, he felt rather embarrassed. "What's wrong with us two?" Jiang Yanting looked at him.

Xie Duo chuckled lightly, looking at the person on the bed, "What exactly happened yesterday? You just went out to eat with him and didn't return all night, and somehow ended up in the hospital?" This conversation had to go back to last evening, ever since the Xie siblings visited the Jiang Family, Old Master Xie had reminded her several times that it was tto invite Jiang Yanting out for a meal.

Shen Zhixian had no choice but to message Jiang Yanting to see if he had tto cout for dinner.

Jiang Yanting replied: Anytime.

So they agreed to have dinner together. Since it was an impromptu invitation, Jiang Yanting had been inspecting projects in the Beijing suburbs. By the the rushed back, he was still more than ten minutes late for their arranged time.

"Sorry, had scompany issues to take care of." He casually took off his coat, revealing a white shirt and black trousers, with a black arm garter wrapped around his upper arm. He had hurried over from the parking lot, feeling a bit warm, and slightly rolled up his sleeves, exposing his solid, taut forearms.

Every action he took was with a rebellious and lofty air, even rolling up his sleeves managed to be charming. Shen Zhixian bowed her head, sipping swarm water, "It's fine, I haven't been here long." "Ordered yet?" "Not yet." Jiang Yanting knew her preferences well; however, during the meal, it was hard for Shen Zhixian to concentrate on him, her mind elsewhere.

On the way back, it was naturally Jiang Yanting who drove her.

"Not going to the Xie Family?" "No need, just dropoff at the corner of Jello Road." Old Master Xie was very fond of Jiang Yanting, and knowing he had driven her hwould likely have prompted him to invite Jiang Yanting to sit for a while, prolonging the affair.

Whatever she was thinking, Jiang Yanting understood well and chuckled lightly, "In your mind, am I really that unsightly?" Shen Zhixian held onto her purse and was about to speak when he received a call, putting on his Bluetooth earpiece and pressing the answer button, "Hello—" It appeared to be company business.

She glanced sideways at Jiang Yanting, as evening lights just began to shine, the street light beams coursing past the car windows, illuminating and obscuring intermittently, outlining his profile, lines sharp, jaw dignified, and below that, the slightly loose collar of his shirt, the subtle protrusion of his Adam's apple...

In anyone's eyes, he was particularly charming.

More mature and alluring than before, with a certain sensuality of a grown man.

By this time, the car had already reached Jello Road. He pulled over to stop, but the phone call wasn't over and the door locks were still engaged, so Shen Zhixian had no choice but to wait quietly for him.

Jiang Yanting was gently rubbing the steering wheel with his fingers. His hands were handsome, with distinct knuckles, and she suddenly remembered the first tthey held hands...

At that time, it was clear that they both had strong feelings for each other, yet during their first hand-holding venture, his movements were restrained but firm.

Both of them were nervous, their palms becoming clammy from the anxiety.

Jiang Yanting didn't talk on the phone for too long. After hanging up, he turned to look at her, turned off the car engine, "Let's get out, I'll walk you a little further." "No need, I'm very close to the Xie Family now." Jiang Yanting didn't want to pressure her too much and didn't insist. She was right there, and there was no need to rush anything.

After Shen Zhixian got out of the car, she walked slowly forward, well aware that Jiang Yanting's car was still behind her. He might be watching her the whole time. Her heart was inexplicably nervous, as if she had forgotten even how to walk properly...

Jiang Yanting planned to escort her until she entered the villa complex where the Xie Family was located and then drive away, but after watching for a while, he noticed something off about her gait.

He narrowed his eyes.

Towards the end, she was practically jogging, her hand stretched out to grasp the streetlight, her back hunched over, and she almost squatted to the ground.

At a glance, it was clear she was not feeling well! Jiang Yanting opened the door and got out, taking quick strides as he ran towards her! "Xianxian-" When his fingers touched her body, he realized how violently she was shaking. She lifted her head to look at him, her eyes were out of focus, and her lips were so pale that not a trace of color was visible. "What's wrong? Low blood sugar? Or is something else uncomfortable?" Noticing that she was extremely cold, before he could ask anything else, Shen Zhixian's body went limp, and she fainted.

He reached out to embrace her, slid his long arm under her knees, and hurriedly carried her to the car.

Shen Zhixian usually had a healthy body; during their ttogether, he had never noticed any issues like low blood sugar. While driving straight to the Hospital, he made a call to Zhou Zhongqing.

It was quite a coincidence that Zhou Zhongqing had a surgery tonight which had just ended. (He was about to go hwhen he heard that Jiang Yanting was coming over, thinking that perhaps Jiang Jinsang had an accident. "It's not Xiaowu." "That's good. I'll wait for you at the Hospital.”

Zhou Zhongqing had never seen Shen Zhixian before. When he saw he Jiang Yanting carrying a womamand rushing out of his car, he was stunned for a moment. Night had fallen, the temperature in Beijing had already dropped below zero, but Jiang Yanting was just wearing a thin indoor shirt as he ran like the wind. Having known the Jiang Family for a long tand familiar with Jiang Yanting for many years, Zhou Zhongqing rarely saw him in such a state.

"What happened to her?" After the woman was placed on a stretcher and taken to the emergency room, Zhou Zhongqing inquired about the situation.

"I'm not very clear, it all happened so suddenly..." Jiang Yanting couldn't articulate clearly, eventually waiting outside the emergency room.

Several on-duty doctors arrived in succession, and about half an hour later, Zhou Zhongqing cout of the examination room.

"Uncle Zhou, how is she..." "She's fine, we've checked her out, she's receiving IV fluids, there's no threat to her life." After Zhou Zhongqing finished speaking, he finally took a deep breath.

"Then why did she suddenly..." "Yanting, who is she?" Zhou Zhongqing, while removing the disposable gloves in his hands, looked at him closely.

"Why do you ask that?" "She has given birth to a child." When someone faints and is brought to the Hospital, doctors can tell with a simple examination whether she has given birth or not.

Jiang Yanting remained silent.

"To understand the exact condition, we need to do a thorough check tomorrow. But this issue, it appears to be a consequence from childbirth, possibly Sheehan's syndrome..." "What is that?" "It may be caused by severe postpartum haemorrhage. Likely she was on the brink of life and death at that time. But to know the specific details, we have to conduct a thorough checkup." "So the condition is not curable?" "It can be managed, but not cured."
