Jiang Chen interrupted Tong Jingxian fiercely. At that moment, his gaze became incredibly terrifying. Seeing this, Tong Jingxian couldn’t help but tremble. She didn’t say anything else, but as she lowered her head, her gaze became distorted, and she cursed in her heart. 

‘Su Zhi’en, you’d better not come back. You’d better die on the operating table with the children in your belly! Otherwise…’

Three hours later, the lights in the hospital’s operating theater finally dimmed.

“Master Jiang, I am truly sorry. When the pregnant woman was sent over, she had suffered a serious hemorrhage, and her amniotic sac ruptured. There were three children in her womb. We were only able to save one. We’ve done everything that we could.” The doctor held the only surviving baby in his arms and announced the news with regret.

When Old Master Jiang heard the news, his entire body staggered. He felt as though the world was spinning as he fell onto a chair. He had three grandchildren and one daughter-in-law, but only one survived.

“Old Master Jiang…”

The family was in chaos once again. When Jiang Chen heard the news, he had already left with Tong Jingxian and was heading to his private apartment. Jiang Chen’s hand holding the steering wheel paused slightly when he received the news.

“She’s dead?”

“Yes. The hospital said that she was already in poor health and held on for a long time. The severe bleeding instantly took her life, but one of the three children in her womb was saved and was brought back by Old Master Jiang. It’s a boy.”

After the assistant finished explaining the details over the phone, he was worried that Jiang Chen would not believe him. The assistant even took photos of the bodies of one adult and two children and sent them over.

Jiang Chen parked his car by the roadside and looked at the pictures on his phone. He was silent for a long while. Although he was expressionless, the veins on the back of his hands revealed his thoughts.

Five years later, at a top private hospital in Country R.

Su Zhi’en was wearing a white coat and standing under a big screen. She explained a case study in a fluent foreign language in the meeting room, and in front of her was a group of hospital specialists. Su Zhi’en had a low ponytail, and her delicate face only had light makeup. Her skin was as white as snow, and she stood out from the crowd.

“So, what Dr. Bai means is that this patient doesn’t actually need surgery but only requires acupuncture to achieve full recovery? A young doctor in the crowd was the first to ask.

“Yes! Surgery is not the only solution.”

Su Zhi’en gave a faint smile and nodded. However, her smile did not reach her ears, making people feel that it was not sincere.

That’s right, Su Zhi’en was now Dr. Bai— Bai Zhi, to be exact.

Five years ago, God did not let her die that night because the doctor managed to save her. However, she hoped that the doctor would officially declare her dead. She did not want to go back to the Jiang family, and she did not want to see Jiang Chen anymore— she moved to Country R.

Relying on the traditional Chinese medical skills that her mother passed down, she took her mother’s surname and changed her name to Bai Zhi. Here, she was an excellent doctor and worthy of her grandfather’s mantle. She had been following her grandfather around since she was young, but she only knew how to read medical books when she was younger. 

At this time, when the experts in the meeting room heard Bai Zhi’s affirmative words, they were a little hesitant about whether or not they should use Bai Zhi’s method. However, Bai Zhi did not wait for their reply. She looked at the time, tidied up her things, and left immediately.

“Is Dr. Bai picking up her child at this time?”

“I believe so.”

Bai Zhi hurried downstairs. When she saw her colleagues greeting her, she simply nodded and continued to rush over to pick up her child. At this moment, she was already running late. 

Twenty minutes later, at Angel Kindergarten.

“Mommy, you’re so late today!” Bai Yuning stood at the kindergarten entrance, which was already empty. Bai Yuning was wearing a pink dress and a little red hat with braided hair on both sides. She looked thrilled when she saw her mother.

Seeing this, Bai Zhi quickly went over to coax her little child. This child looked like a lady, but she had an arrogant attitude. Bai Yuning was a very difficult child to coax.

“I’m sorry, Baby. I lost track of time in the meeting today, but I promise that I won’t be late next time. Will you forgive me?” Bai Zhi held Bai Yuning’s tiny hand and sincerely asked for forgiveness.

“Okay then, I’ll forgive you this time. Oh, right, Brother bought me a lot of snacks just now, which I’m usually not allowed to eat!”

Bai Yuning looked at her mother with a smug look in her eyes. She was hinting to her mother that if she were ever late again, she would get hungry and have to eat something that Bai Zhi usually didn’t allow her to eat.

Hearing this, Bai Zhi tapped Bai Yuning’s little nose helplessly. She didn’t even need to think about it. Bai Yuning must have run away from her brother, forcing him to look for her.

However, her brother must have other ways to prevent his sister from eating junk food. As Bai Yuning’s twin, her brother was really sensible and took good care of his sister, as though he was a little adult.

Bai Zhi let out a big smile. Only in front of the children did Bai Zhi have a genuine smile. “Okay, let’s go see what your brother has bought for you.”

“Okay!” Bai Yuning nodded vigorously.

A few minutes later, Bai Zhi finally found her son. However, why did her son, who the teachers always praised, look so proud and disgusted?

“What a coincidence! Why does the kid who is about to transfer into our school look so much like Bai Yu’an?”

“That does seem to be true now that you’ve mentioned it.”

The teachers held the photos and compared them to Bai Yu’an’s small face..
