Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Wen Kerou did not answer the phone immediately.

She was afraid that Fu Zhenlong would find out about Fu Zhengting's injury.

Mu Tiantian glanced at the lit-up phone screen. Wen Kerou's contact name for Fu Zhenlong was still "Dad," unchanged.

The phone kept ringing, making the two people, who were already in a bad mood, feel even more depressed.

Mu Tiantian withdrew her hand, feeling a little discomfort in her chest as she breathed.

Although he no longer felt the same hostility towards Wen Kerou as before, and even felt a bit more grateful, it was still difficult for him to put aside the identity of being a love rival and communicate with her freely.

Wen Kerou and Fu Zhengting are divorced, but she still keeps "Dad" in her contact information for her former father-in-law, which shows that she has a good relationship with Fu's father.

The fact that Fu's father dismissed Fu Zhengting from his post meant that he would never allow her to enter the house.

She began to doubt herself, wondering if she shouldn't have reconciled with Fu Zhengting.

Even if they don't reconcile, at least Fu Zhengting will still be the president of the Fu Group, and at least he won't get hurt.

She shouldn't be thinking like this, but her mind was in complete turmoil.

"You answer the phone first, I'm going out."

She left her message and turned to leave.

Wen Kerou hurriedly called out to her, "Mu Tiantian!"

Mu Tiantian turned her head and looked at Wen Kerou with a puzzled expression.

Wen Kerou's expression became even more awkward. She reminded him, "My legs hurt too much, I can't get down. Could you please help me? I need to go to the emergency room!"

Mu Tiantian hadn't really planned to leave; she just wanted to go outside and wait for Wen Kerou to finish her phone call.

But judging from Wen Kerou's expression, she didn't seem to want to answer Fu's father's call.

She wanted to hear what Fu's father wanted to say to Wen Kerou during his phone call, so she didn't explain anything and silently helped Wen Kerou down.

Wen Kerou could only stand on one leg; although her leg was bandaged, it still hurt a lot.

She had to put her arm around Mu Tiantian's shoulder to move.

Mu Tiantian grabbed Wen Kerou's hand that was resting on her shoulder, so that Wen Kerou could lean on her for support.

The two people who should have been rivals in love have now become like this.

Both of them felt both amazed and embarrassed.

Mu Tiantian was getting annoyed when her father called again after hanging up, so she suggested, "Do you want to answer the phone?"

If Fu's father asks about Fu Zhengting's condition and learns that Fu Zhengting was injured while saving her, he will definitely dislike her even more.

Wen Kerou hesitated for a moment, feeling that avoiding the issue would only worry her father, and that she would have to face it eventually.

She sat down on the edge of the bed and swiped to answer the call.

"Ke Rou, why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Did I wake you up?" Fu Zhenlong asked uncertainly.

I had another nightmare. I woke up from the nightmare and couldn't fall back asleep. I was worried about Wen Kerou, so I called to ask her about her condition.

"No, I... woke up quite early." Wen Kerou was unsure whether she should be honest with her father.

Fu Zhenlong immediately sensed something was wrong and asked, "Ke Rou, are you at the orphanage right now? Is there something you want to tell me?"

Wen Kerou's heart skipped a beat; she hadn't expected Mr. Fu to understand her so well.

Her silence made Fu Zhenlong even more certain that something had happened.

"Ke Rou, please tell me quickly, otherwise I will be very worried. No wonder I've been having nightmares these past few days, it turns out something really has happened," Fu Zhenlong urged.

Wen Kerou glanced at Mu Tiantian.

Mu Tiantian looked away awkwardly.

Wen Kerou suddenly found Mu Tiantian's awkwardness quite cute.

She recalled the scene at the orphanage when Mu Tiantian splashed water on her to wake her up.

It was because Mu Tiantian was kind-hearted that she rushed in to try to save her.

But if she hadn't been hit by something, Fu Zhengting wouldn't have rushed into the fire a second time.

If we really have to blame someone, it's her who dragged Fu Zhengting down with her.

Thinking of the scene where Fu Zhengting held her tightly beneath him, she felt deeply moved.

At that time, she had made the best plan, wanting to gracefully let Fu Zhengting and Mu Tiantian be together, but Fu Zhengting's protectiveness made her suppressed love surge up uncontrollably again.

She doesn't know how to face this love triangle right now.

When Fu Zhenlong received no response, he threatened, "Ke Rou, if you don't tell me, I'll send someone to the orphanage to find out what's going on."

Wen Kerou didn't want Fu Zhenlong to waste his time, so she had to tell the truth, "Dad, I was afraid you'd worry. Last night, the orphanage caught fire, and A-Ting was injured by a falling object while trying to save me. He's in the hospital getting emergency treatment right now..."

Fu Zhenlong never expected it to be about his son. He was so shocked he almost dropped his phone. Hoping he might have misheard, he asked, "Ke Rou, what did you say?"

He dismissed his son from his post to teach him a lesson.

It's not really necessary to go to such extremes.

If his son softens his stance even slightly, he will allow him to return to the company and compete fairly with his first love's son for the CEO position. He will let his abilities speak for themselves, and whoever manages the company better will inherit the position.

I just wanted to vent my anger.

But if something happens to their son or he dies, the Fu family will lose its true lineage.

He could accept the son of his first love, but he could never compare to Ah Ting, his son.

Fearing that the shock would affect Fu Zhenlong's injuries, Wen Kerou quickly comforted him, "Dad, don't worry. A-Ting is still being treated, and we don't know the specific outcome yet."

"How can I not be anxious? I usually say hurtful things, but that's just to vent. I can't really sever my father-son relationship with A-Ting. I fired him to force him to comply. I was busy with work before and didn't give A-Ting much care as a father. I've always felt guilty about that. I really want to make it up to A-Ting. I don't know how things got to this point..." Fu Zhenlong ignored his injuries and tried to get off the hospital bed, but his head was hurting so badly that moving it aggravated his wounds.

It would be truly tragic if an elderly person outlived their child.

He desperately wanted to get there immediately, but he couldn't get out of bed and could only worry helplessly.

The pain was so bad I couldn't hold onto my phone, and it fell to the ground.

He bent down slightly to pick up his phone, but accidentally fell.

Uncle Li just went out to buy something.

Fortunately, a nurse happened to pass by, heard the commotion, came in to check on him, helped Fu Zhenlong up, and examined him.

Fu Zhenlong asked the nurse to pick up his phone.

Before the call ended, Wen Kerou, unaware of what had happened on his end, asked worriedly, "Dad, are you alright?"

"Ke Rou, which hospital is A Ting in? I want to transfer there." Fu Zhenlong said with certainty.

Wen Kerou thought it would be good to transfer Fu's father to another hospital. If Fu Zhengting really couldn't make it, at least she could see him one last time.

Thinking about this makes my heart ache terribly.

She opened WeChat to check her location and sent it to Fu Zhenlong's WeChat account.

Fu Zhenlong glanced at the location sent by Wen Kerou and immediately asked the nurse to transfer him to another hospital.

The nurse wanted to persuade Fu Zhenlong, but seeing how determined he was, she had no choice but to go and explain the situation to Fu Zhenlong's attending physician.

The attending physician carefully examined Fu Zhenlong's injuries and, after questioning him, learned that Fu Zhenlong had rushed over to see his equally injured son, and couldn't bear to refuse him.

He asked the dean to help him contact Qian Zhikun.

Qian Zhikun had just arrived at the hospital for work when he received this call and was shocked to learn that Fu Zhengting was injured and being treated at his hospital.

He naturally agreed to let Fu Zhenlong be transferred over, and after hanging up the phone, he immediately rushed to the emergency room to check on Fu Zhengting's condition.

Inside the emergency room, the rescue efforts are still ongoing.

Qian Zhikun asked the emergency room doctor who performed the surgery on Fu Zhengting, "How is the patient?"

The emergency room doctor replied, "The situation is very serious. The injury has hit the most vulnerable part of the brain nerves, causing excessive intracranial hemorrhage. The patient's breathing is weak, and there is a risk of paralysis and becoming a vegetable..."

The more Qian Zhikun listened, the heavier his gaze became.

He was still happy that Fu Zhengting and Mu Tiantian had reconciled and were looking forward to their wedding banquet, but he never expected such an accident to happen.

He instructed the emergency room doctor to do everything possible to save him, as he had other things to attend to and hoped to hear good news when he was done.

I had only walked a few steps when I suddenly thought of Mu Tiantian. I wondered if Mu Tiantian was injured.

You can probably find out how Fu Zhengting got injured by asking Mu Tiantian.

He asked the nurse, who didn't recognize Mu Tiantian. She looked around but didn't see Mu Tiantian and guessed, "She might have gone to see another injured person."

When Qian Zhikun learned that there was another injured person, his brows furrowed again.

He asked the nurse to take him there.

In the ward, Wen Kerou was answering a phone call from her housekeeper, Uncle Li.

Uncle Li told her that Fu's father's attending physician had agreed to the transfer to another hospital and that preparations were underway.

Uncle Li was also worried about Fu Zhengting and wanted to rush over to see him.

Uncle Li asked Wen Kerou whether she should notify Fu Ziliu to come over.

Wen Kerou fell silent and glanced at Mu Tiantian, who was still waiting for her outside the ward.

She was afraid that Fu Ziliu would be very unfriendly to Mu Tiantian if he came over.

Thinking back to her somewhat ingratiating attitude in order to gain the support of Fu Ziliu and her father, she suddenly felt a little despicable.

Even if she didn't do anything bad to Mu Tiantian, she would still feel that sense of shame.

Love can really make people lose themselves.

After learning that Fu Zhengting liked Mu Tiantian, she was controlled by the devil of jealousy.

She was glad that she hadn't done anything too serious.

After careful consideration, I decided to have Uncle Li inform Fu Ziliu.

If the father and daughter were to pursue the matter, she would truthfully explain to them that Fu Zhengting was injured while saving her.

After hanging up Uncle Li's call, she opened Huo Qijun's phone.

Because Kenneth Fok was Fu Zhengting's best friend, she kept his number.

Since we were going to notify them, we made sure to notify all the people who were important to Fu Zhengting.

Huo Qijun was shocked and frightened when he received Wen Kerou's call.

Because he was worried about Fu Zhengting being dismissed, he planned to take Xiao Linglong to see Fu Zhengting even if Wen Kerou hadn't called him.

Now that my good brother is seriously injured, I have to go even more.

He immediately made preparations and had the driver take him and Xiao Linglong there.

Wen Kerou continued scrolling through her contacts, wondering which other important friends she had.

In fact, Fu Zhengting doesn't have many friends; the only one he can truly confide in is Huo Qijun.

She suddenly felt that Fu Zhengting was very lonely. The thought that he did not receive love from his parents and did not have many friends made her feel sorry for him.

As I flipped through the pages, I came across Fu Zhengting's mother's phone number.

When she married Fu Zhengting, Fu's mother had already divorced Fu's father. The phone number Fu's mother had received was given to her by her father before his death.

She only met Fu's mother once when she first visited the Fu family. Fu's mother gave her a rather aloof impression, and seemed to have a fiery personality that was not easy to get along with.

She also asked Uncle Zhong a lot of questions about Fu Zhengting's childhood and his mother.

Uncle Zhong said there was nothing to say, because Fu's mother didn't take care of Fu Zhengting much; he was mostly cared for by Fu Zhengting's grandparents.

She desperately hoped that Fu's mother could fulfill her responsibility as a mother and show some care for Fu Zhengting, even if it was just for a moment.

Staring at her mother's number, she was caught in a dilemma.

I'm torn about whether or not to call and inform Fu's mother.

Even if she dislikes Fu Zhengting, he is still her biological son.

She couldn't believe that Fu's mother could be so cold-hearted as a mother.

Fu Zhengting must also hope to see his mother during his vulnerable moments.

Perhaps, it can give him great strength.

She really wanted to do something for Fu Zhengting, to improve the cold relationship between Fu's mother and him.

However, his sensitive pride got the better of him, and he felt that even if something had to be done, it should be done by his girlfriend, Mu Tiantian.

She, as his ex-wife, has no right to claim this.

Mu Tiantian waited and waited for Wen Kerou to call her in and help her out, but Wen Kerou looked into the ward and saw Wen Kerou looking down at her phone, seemingly lost in thought.

She went in and called out, "Is it done?"

After hanging up with Fu's father, Wen Kerou received a second call. Feeling awkward staying in the ward, she went out again.

Wen Kerou was really conflicted; she didn't even hear Mu Tiantian calling her.

Back at her bedside, Mu Tiantian noticed Wen Kerou staring at a number with the contact name "Mom".

I don't know if she's Wen Kerou's own mother or Fu Zhengting's mother.

At this moment, Wen Kerou definitely wanted to call Fu Zhengting's mother.

That cold-hearted mother who didn't love Fu Zhengting.

She couldn't help but wonder if Fu's mother would rush to see him after learning that Fu Zhengting was seriously injured.

Even if they were willing to come, would they make it in time?

Uncle Zhong said that Fu's mother went abroad after divorcing Fu's father.

This problem is heartbreaking and despairing.

Fu Zhengting seems to have everything, but he has never even had maternal or paternal love.

Love cannot be bought with any amount of money.

Wen Kerou glanced at Mu Tiantian and saw the indignation and heartache in Mu Tiantian's eyes.

She gave a self-deprecating smile. Fu Zhengting wasn't so lonely and pitiful. At least, Mu Tiantian loved him just like her.

She asked curiously, "Do you know about the relationship between Fu Zhengting's mother and him?"

Mu Tiantian replied truthfully, "I know, Uncle Zhong told me everything."

Wen Kerou then asked, "Do you think we should call Fu Zhengting's mother?"

Mu Tiantian thought about it seriously for a moment and then gave her answer, "Hit."

Wen Kerou twitched the corners of her mouth again.

She also felt that they should fight!

I don't know why, but I'm inexplicably nervous.

He feared that Fu's mother was cold and heartless, and didn't care about Fu Zhengting's life or death at all.

Even with a tiny distance between us, I just couldn't bring myself to dial.

Mu Tiantian lost her patience. She took Wen Kerou's phone. "I'll call!"

As she spoke, she pressed her finger firmly on the dial pad.

The call went through...
