nder skirt, so the grass ornament around her neck was also on full display.Su Keixin didn't bring concealer, so she could only haphazardly apply some foundation to cover it up. Then, she mustered her...Raising her hand, she slowly wiped away the tears that had already flowed to the corner of her eyes. Cheng Kexin stared blankly at Su Yaqin who was still mumbling in her sleep.

This person before her was once the one she trusted and loved most. But how long had it been since she'd called her "Mom" This title, once so warm and supportive, helping her through every difficulty, when had it become impossible for her to utter

Thinking of this, Cheng Keqin's tears fell again. When did the bond between her and her daughter become so distant

"Kexin," a voice suddenly came from behind calling her name. She quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears, Cheng Kexin forced a smile and turned to look at Gu Chi.

But how could those obviously red eyes fool Gu Chi Walking to her side, Gu Chi reached out and touched her cheek, his voice full of concern, "Why are you crying Don't worry, I just asked the doctor, he said Mom's surgery was a success and she's out of danger. "

"Hmm." Cheng Kexin nodded and then didn't say anything else.

Seeing Cheng Kexin's emotions hadn't improved after hearing these words, but remained as sorrowful as before, Gu Chi couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. If it wasn't because of Su Ya'fen's body, then what was she so heartbroken about

Gu Chi squatted down before Cheng Ke Xin and looked into her eyes gently, asking, "Ke Xin, what's wrong You don't seem happy."

Hearing Gu Chi ask that, Cheng Ke Xin's heart suddenly ached. She looked up at him, then turned her gaze away, forcing a smile: "It's nothing, the surgery was very successful, how could I not be happy I'm very happy."

Gu Zhi certainly wouldn't be fooled that easily. Cheng Ke Xin just now, the look in her eyes when she looked at her was clearly filled with too much grievance and sadness. What on earth had happened

Bán Zhèng Cheng Kē Xīn's body, Gu Chí let her look at him, "Kē Xīn, if there is anything, you must tell me, believe me, no matter how difficult it is, I will do my best to help you solve it."

Looking at Gu Chi's earnest expression, Cheng Ke Xin felt a mixture of touched and helpless. Su Ya Fen only had Cheng Ruo Er in her heart, her adopted daughter didn't hold any weight in her eyes. How could she tell him this And what could he possibly do to help her solve this problem

"I'm really fine." Cheng Kexin looked at Gu Chi and said, "Thank you for today. If it weren't for you, the surgery wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

Seeing that Cheng Kexin still refused to tell him what was on her mind, Gu Chi couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He thought that after today's events, their relationship had taken a big leap forward, but it turned out that in Cheng Kexin's eyes, he was still not the person she could fully trust

"Kexin, we..." Gu Chi was about to speak again when Su Yafen's mumbling started up once more.

"Ya'er, Ya'er... Ya'er, come... come and see Mommy... Ya'er..."

He glanced at Su Ya-fen on the hospital bed, then saw Cheng Ke-xin's face suddenly clouded with sadness. Gu Chi understood her grievance in an instant.

Clutching Cheng Ke'xin's hand, Gu Chi said tenderly, "Ke'xin, don't think too much about it. Cheng Ruo'er is her biological daughter after all, so she might inevitably think a lot. Don't take it to heart."

Hearing Gu Chi's words, Cheng Ke Xin's eyes welled up again. Yes, Cheng Ruo Er was her biological daughter, it was natural for a mother to worry about her own child. Su Ya Fen was just an adopted daughter after all, not as important as Cheng Ruo Er, so there was nothing to be sad about, right

Seeing Cheng Kexin's reaction, Gu Chi also realized that he had said the wrong thing. He felt like he wanted to punch himself twice in the heart. Why did he say these things Didn't he make Cheng Kexin even more heartbroken

Unable to help himself, Gu Chi gently pulled Cheng Ke Xin into his arms and comforted her, "It's okay, Ke Xin, it's okay. You have me. No matter what, in my heart, you are the most important. I will always be by your side and will never leave you alone."

During this time of pursuing herself, Gu Chi had said similar sweet words to Cheng Ke Xin many times. However, Cheng Ke Xin felt that none of them were as moving as today's. Perhaps it was because she needed this kind of attention more than ever before compared to the past.

Curled up in Gu Chi's embrace, Cheng KeXin's tears fell silently, but the bitterness in her heart inexplicably lessened. When her mood eased, Cheng KeXin realized how ambiguous their current positions were.

Emerging from Gu Zhi's embrace, Cheng Ke Xin's face was slightly flushed. "I've been out for several days now, you must have a lot of things to be busy with. I can manage here on my own, go take care of your company matters."

But how could Gu Zhi feel at ease leaving her alone in the hospital right now, "Let's talk about work later. I can't bear to leave you here by yourself. It makes me feel more at ease to be with you."

"It's alright," Cheng Ke Xin blushed even deeper hearing those words, "You can't really help here right now. I can manage perfectly fine on my own, you don't have to worry."

But...

"It's nothing, I really can do it. Go get busy."

Seeing Cheng Keqin's determination, and remembering Yang Zuo's anxious tone on the phone earlier, Gu Chi didn't insist any further. "Alright, I'll head back to the company first. If anything happens, be sure to call me immediately, and I'll come over as soon as possible."

"I know," Cheng KeXin nodded gratefully, "Just go now."

"Call me immediately if anything happens." Gu Chi gave Cheng Kexin another reminder before reluctantly turning to leave the ward, taking three steps and looking back twice.

Soon after Gu Chi left, Su Ya Fen woke up.

Seeing Su Ya'fen open her eyes, Cheng Keqin hurriedly got up and asked, "How are you Is there anything uncomfortable"

"I, I am..." Just waking up, Su Ya Fen's consciousness was a little unclear.

"You just had surgery," Cheng Kexin said softly, "The surgery was a success, you're fine now, but still pay attention to rest. The doctor said that there may be rejection reactions at the beginning, just get through this period, I'll go find the doctor to check on you now."

After finishing her statement, Cheng Kexin wanted to call the doctor over, but she was stopped by Su Ya'fen. "Kexin, what about Ruoer She just had surgery too, is her body...is there nothing wrong with her"

Hearing that Su Ya Fen missed Cheng Rou Er the moment she woke up, Cheng Ke Xin's heart ached. She had been running around for her these past two days, but all Su Ya Fen cared about was Cheng Rou Er, not even saying a word of thanks for her hard work.

Holding back her sadness, Cheng Ke Xin replied: "Cheng Ruor is fine, she's perfectly alright. She's already gone back to rest. When you feel better, I'll have her come see you."

"No, it's not necessary." Su Yaofen was a little anxious. "Her body wasn't good to begin with, now she definitely... definitely must be weaker. Don't make her rush to see me, let her rest well first."

"Hmm." Cheng Ke Xin's eyes stung suddenly, she tried to smile and said, "I understand. You rest first, I'll go find a doctor to check you over."

"Good." Hearing that Cheng Ru'er was alright, Su Yafen also put her heart completely at ease and then fell back into a deep sleep.loded in everyone's hearts like a thunderclap. They all looked at each other in stunned silence. Just moments ago, the atmosphere was lively and vibrant; now, it was eerily quiet.Some even took a caut...
