Chapter 297: Wedding Ceremony

Late at night, Qiu Tong was sleeping peacefully.

Qiu Xingqiao and Little Yu surrounded her bed and stared at her with swollen eyes. No matter how tired they were, they didn’t dare to close their eyes, afraid that if they looked away for a moment, the woman lying on the bed would stop breathing.

The usually noisy children had learned to be quiet and sensible at this moment. Qiu Xingyu would wipe her tears with the back of her hand from time to time.

Qiu Xingqiao said in a very low voice, “Mommy taught us not to cry no matter what happens.”

“Crying won’t solve anything. It would only show others our cowardice…”

Qiu Xingyu choked back her sobs and tried to stop crying, but the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. She threw herself into Qiu Xingqiao’s arms and said, “Second Brother, will Mommy never wake up again? Does she despise us for being noisy? She thinks that we’re disobedient, so she doesn’t want us anymore!”

Qiu Xingqiao raised his arm stiffly and pursed his lips stubbornly without saying a word.

Qiu Xingyuan walked to their side and quietly looked at Qiu Tong.

In the past, he had hated her. He had even tried his best to chase her away and make her die. But as time passed, Qiu Xingyuan could feel the love she had for him and his younger siblings. It was from the bottom of her heart, and it completely melted his heart.

Although Qiu Xingyuan still maintained a remote relationship with her on the surface, he was gradually relying more and more on her in his heart.

The moment he learned that Qiu Tong had fallen into a coma, Qiu Xingyuan felt a deep sense of fear. He didn’t want to become a motherless child!

Qiu Xingyuan wiped Little Yu’s tears and said with certainty, “She just needs to rest. We have to wait obediently for her to wake up. We have to do things for her that she likes. She will naturally recover faster.”

Qiu Xingyu trusted Qiu Xingyuan the most. Hope lit up in her eyes.

The medical machines continued to beep.

Qiu Xingyu ran to the bed and gently massaged Qiu Tong’s arms and legs. She muttered, “I heard from Grandpa that a massage will speed up blood circulation. Mommy will ache from lying down all day. She’ll feel more comfortable this way.”

When Qiu Xingqiao heard this, he joined in as well. Little Yu clumsily climbed onto the bed, avoiding the various tubes, and pressed her cold face against Qiu Tong’s chest. She listened to Qiu Tong’s steady heartbeat as she hummed a nursery rhyme, as if she was coaxing her to sleep…

At the door of the ward, Jin Yang quietly stood outside and watched the children’s actions. His heart ached.

Qiu Rong dragged his tired body out of the laboratory and followed Jin Yang’s line of sight to see the scene in the room.

Jin Yang turned around and looked at Qiu Rong when he heard the noise. Qiu Rong used his eyes to signal him to follow him to the balcony on the top floor. The sky was sparkling with a few bright stars, and a light wind blew. The dark circles under Jin Yang’s eyes indicated that he hadn’t slept for several days.

Qiu Rong hesitated for a moment before saying, “Qiu Tong used a semi-finished product. The ratio of the ingredients added to it is too violent for the human body to bear. When we were experimenting on the mice, they… didn’t survive.”

“It was my mistake. I wanted to destroy the sample but I felt that it was the closest to the effect we wanted, so I decided to keep it overnight. I didn’t expect Tongtong to take it away and use it on herself.”

Qiu Rong rubbed his eyes. He had been trying his best to accept reality the past few days. He could not help feeling gloomy and solemn.

“What I want to tell you is that Tongtong’s vital signs are normal now, but that doesn’t mean she can wake up.”

“Even if she wakes up, no one can be certain what the drug has done to her body and whether her nervous system is irreversibly damaged. You are the president and Tongtong is my daughter…”

“If she could talk, I know she would want you to continue your life.”

Qiu Rong hinted for Jin Yang to leave. He even thought of taking the children out of the villa and finding a secluded place to take care of them.

However, just as he was about to speak, Jin Yang stopped him and said seriously, “Uncle Qiu, Qiu Tong and I have already completed the marriage procedures. She is my lawful wife.”

“I won’t divorce her.”

Jin Yang’s thin lips curled into a faint smile. “I didn’t hold a wedding ceremony with her when we decided to get married. I hope you can allow me to hold a family wedding. I want to officially marry her and take care of her and the children as her husband.”

“As you said, we don’t know if she can wake up again. I don’t want us to have any regrets.”

Jin Yang’s deep affection moved Qiu Rong. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, “Up to you.”

The next morning, Shao An was shocked to receive the news, but he quickly started to organize the wedding ceremony.

When Song Yan heard the news outside, he immediately rushed back to the villa. He forgot all the comforting words he had carefully planned on the way back. He just silently raised his hand and patted Jin Yang’s shoulder.

Jin Yang was dressed in a tuxedo. “You’re back at the right time. Welcome to my wedding.”
