Bai Mei wouldn't ruin her great situation because of a child.

She decided to keep it a secret almost without hesitation.

At the same time, she also used her pregnancy as leverage to coerce Jiang Yinzhu into marriage.

Although Jiang Yinzhu's feelings changed quickly, he didn't want to rush into marriage. He had to at least cover it up and put on a show in front of Jiang Jinzhu and the Su family.

Bai Mei used a feigned retreat as a tactic, suggesting that he consider aborting the child first.

It's not too late to have children after we get married.

When Jiang Yinzhu was in Chengzhou, he was already over thirty years old.

In this day and age, it's considered having a child late in life.

Bai Mei wanted to abort the child, but he firmly disagreed.

And so, Bai Mei, carrying Xiang Tao's child, married Jiang Yinzhu.

Eight months after her marriage, Bai Mei tripped and fell, resulting in premature birth.

Jiang Yinzhu had no doubts whatsoever and doted on Xiao Jiangbao like his own precious treasure.

Bai Mei deliberately made him order Cheng Zhou around to wash diapers.

Jiang Yinzhu actually agreed.

Bai Mei thought that the matter was now a secret and that no one else would ever know.

But now, Su Lang has brought all of this to light.

Jiang Yinzhu stood there, his mind buzzing.

All the details about Xiaobao over the years flashed through my mind like a revolving lantern.

Once you have doubts in your mind, the more you think about it, the more uneasy you feel.

Premature birth, blood type, appearance, personality...

Everything seems to be wrong.

"So that's how it is..." Jiang Yinzhu murmured to himself, his eyes glazed over.

Bai Mei lunged forward and grabbed his arm. "Yinzhu, let me explain. Xiaobao is your son! Don't listen to other people's nonsense!"

Jiang Yinzhu looked down at her.

The person who had been his bedmate for several years suddenly became a stranger.

"Xiao Bao is my child?" His voice trembled slightly. "Then tell me, why don't their blood types match?"

Bai Mei hadn't read many books and didn't understand anything about blood types.

She opened her mouth, "Maybe, maybe the hospital made a mistake!"

Jiang Yinzhu stared at her. "Then let's go to the hospital for another checkup."

Bai Mei was speechless.

Jiang Yinzhu flung her hand away.

"You bitch!"

He raised his hand and slapped Bai Mei across the face.

Bai Mei screamed and closed her eyes.

The hand did not fall.

Su Lang grabbed Jiang Yinzhu's wrist. "Don't hit people in my house, you'll dirty my land."

Luo Hua also stepped forward, "Comrade Jiang Yinzhu, things have come to this point, let's talk things out. Fighting won't solve anything."

Jiang Yinzhu's eyes were red as he desperately tried to break free from Su Lang's grasp.

"Let me go! I'm going to beat this bitch to death! Su Lang, she's the one who took your sister's place, how dare you stop me?"

Su Lang sneered and slammed him to the ground.

"Do you think my sister cares about being a daughter-in-law of the Chiang family?"

Jiang Jinzhu sat on the sofa, watching the farce unfold before him.

His lips trembled, and his face turned ashen.

A fight was about to break out over there, so no one paid much attention to him.

Suddenly, his body swayed to the side and he fell straight onto the sofa.

"Old Jiang!" Xu Yueyun exclaimed, jumping up to her feet. "Zhilan, quick, come and see!"

Lin Zhilan walked over quickly.

Jiang Jinzhu slumped onto the sofa and fainted, his jaw clenched and his limbs stiff.

Lin Zhilan quickly laid Jiang Jinzhu flat on the sofa, unbuttoned his collar, looked at his eyes, and then quickly took his pulse.

The pulse is rapid, wiry, slippery, and forceful; this indicates a stroke.

Lin Zhilan didn't dare to delay. She took out her silver needles and first inserted one into his philtrum.

Then, I pricked the tips of all ten fingers to release blood, clearing heat and opening the orifices.

Jiang Jinzhu slowly woke up, his eyes moved, his mouth was crooked and his eyes were slanted, half of his body was unable to move, and his speech was very slurred.

"Don't rush to speak, you won't be able to hear me anyway."

Lin Zhilan's fingers flew across the paper as she inserted needles into his acupoints, including Fengchi and Hegu.

The movements were fluid and graceful.

After a few needles, Jiang Jinzhu's breathing became more stable.

His mouth doesn't seem as crooked as it was before.

Jiang Yinzhu and Bai Mei were terrified.

Su Lang went outside to call a car before turning back.

"Don't remove the needle yet, take him to the hospital first... Never mind, I'll go with him."

Lin Zhilan looked apologetically at Qian Changling and Luo Hua halfway through her sentence.

"I'm sorry, today is really..."

Luo Hua waved his hand, "It's alright, no one expected this. The health of the elderly is the most important thing. You should go now, I'll come back to find you later."

"Thank you for your understanding." Lin Zhilan and Qian Changling nodded and quickly followed Su Lang out.

After everyone left, Jiang Yinzhu followed behind in a daze.

By the time he went out, the car had already left.

He rode his bicycle and chased after him.

What happened today has completely exceeded his expectations.

If his father were to get into trouble again, Jiang Yinzhu really wouldn't know what to do.

Bai Mei was also very flustered.

There was nowhere to run away, so after thinking it over, the only thing to do was to go and discuss it with Xiang Tao.

Su Lang and Lin Zhilan arrived at the hospital.

The emergency room doctors and nurses rushed over and were stunned when they saw the silver needles on Jiang Jinzhu's body.

Lin Zhilan quickly explained her condition and the measures already taken.

Then, together with them, they lifted Jiang Jinzhu onto a stretcher and sent him to the emergency room.

The emergency room doctor didn't know anything about traditional Chinese medicine, so he had to call Lin Zhilan in.

Lin Zhilan's emergency measures were timely, and after the needles were removed, Jiang Jinzhu was much more conscious.

Except for one side of my body, which felt limp and weak.

He speaks more clearly than before.

"Comrade Lin, you...you...you have someone call Su Lang in...and if that beast is here, call him in too."

"What's the rush?" Lin Zhilan glanced at him. "You're not going to die anytime soon."

"..."

The doctor gave Jiang Jinzhu a simple physical examination.

It has been determined that there is no immediate danger to their life.

He also largely agreed with Lin Zhilan's diagnosis of his stroke.

Medical conditions are quite limited now, and most stroke patients still receive conservative treatment.

The emergency room doctor quickly prescribed the medication and had the nurse give him an IV drip.

Of course, he also asked Lin Zhilan for her opinion before prescribing the medicine.

There was nothing we could do; the emergency measures were taken by someone else.

And it was done very well, impeccably.

The hospital visit was completed promptly, without delaying the patient's condition at all.

Once it was determined that there was no danger to his life, the doctor moved Jiang Jinzhu to a private room.

Jiang Jinzhu is a retired cadre.

There are also preferential treatments for medical treatment.

When they arrived at the ward, Jiang Yinzhu walked in, sobbing as if his father had died.

Jiang Jinzhu cursed at him, "Your father isn't dead yet, and you're wailing like he's mourning me?!"

"dad……"

Jiang Jinzhu was about to start cursing again when Lin Zhilan calmly reminded him, "Calm down. I can save you once, but I can't save you a second time."

Jiang Jinzhu suffered a cerebral infarction. If anger causes a rise in blood pressure, it can cause unstable blood clots to break off and further cause blockage.

It could even cause brain hemorrhage, directly threatening life.
