Regretful Beijing Marriage

Jiang Yining was half asleep when she picked up her phone and answered the call without even looking at the caller ID.

On the other end of the line, Fu Jiayu choked back sobs.

"Mom, can you come back and help me? Dad's body is burning up."

Fu Huaiyan's breathing became increasingly weak.

My whole body felt like it was burning hot from a furnace.

Fu Jiayu had no other choice.

My mother used to say that if a person has a high fever, they will become mentally impaired.

If Dad becomes mentally impaired, how can he be worthy of Mom?

"Mom, please come back and visit me."

Jiang Yining was wide awake and immediately became alert.

She glanced at the time on the screen.

2 points in the early hours.

A hint of impatience flashed in his eyes, and his tone was icy and chilling.

"Fu Jiayu, I don't believe the Fu family can't even arrange a private doctor."

"I'll say it one last time: I'm not the Fu family's nanny, and I have no obligation to be at their beck and call."

"I hope you can stop bothering me."

On the other end of the phone, Fu Jiayu's sobs suddenly stopped.

He curled up by the hospital bed, his nose red, and large tears rolling down his cheeks.

"Mom...don't you love Dad at all anymore?"

"Dad was hit by a heavy object while saving you and almost never woke up again... Don't you feel any pain at all?"

"Is there really no way to salvage our family situation?"

The child's murmurs were faint and indistinct, mixed with sobs.

Jiang Yining didn't hear clearly, and her tone became increasingly impatient.

"We have maids and doctors at home, go find them."

After saying that, she hung up the phone immediately.

The screen went dark.

Fu Jiayu broke down emotionally and collapsed onto the edge of the bed, sobbing uncontrollably.

Mom really doesn't care about them anymore.

On his sickbed, Fu Huaiyan still had a high fever and his face was flushed.

Hearing the crying, he struggled to open his eyes, a hoarse sound escaping his throat.

"Jiayu, go and call Aunt Zhang over."

Fu Jiayu quickly stopped crying, sniffed his red nose, and ran out to call for help.

The family doctor arrived quickly, and after an IV drip was put in, Fu Huaiyan's temperature gradually dropped.

Fu Jiayu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang's mother looked at the little guy with heartache and gently comforted him.

"Young Master, it's too late. Please go back to your room and rest."

Fu Jiayu stubbornly shook his head, staying by the bedside without leaving for a moment.

Zhang Ma sighed and led all the servants out.

The room fell silent again.

Fu Huaiyan weakly raised his hand and pulled his son into his arms.

Fu Jiayu buried his face in his neck, his heavy sobs escaping in muffled sobs.

"Dad, Mom doesn't want us anymore. Mom is really gone."

Fu Huaiyan paused for a moment, then gently stroked the top of the child's head.

"Jiayu, remember this: no matter what happens, she will always be your mother."

Fu Jiayu shook his head; he didn't like the answer.

But he was too sleepy and tired to think.

She soon fell into a deep sleep.

Fu Huaiyan gently placed him on the bed and covered him with a blanket.

His dark eyes gazed out the window, his emotions complex and difficult to discern.

The following morning, Jiang Yining arrived at the laboratory on time.

As for Fu Jiayu's phone call last night, he had long since forgotten about it.

For the next few days, she devoted herself entirely to the experiment.

The breakthrough direction that Su Zhiyan had previously discovered has been proven to be entirely feasible after days of refinement and verification by the team.

The research is progressing rapidly.

It far exceeded expectations.

Jiang Yining felt that she had turned misfortune into blessing; after the fire, everything seemed to go much more smoothly for her.

That day, Su Zhiyan looked at the constantly updated and accurate data, unable to hide the surprise in her eyes.

"Sister Yining, you're amazing!"

"Our team had been working on this for a long time but couldn't break through the bottleneck, but you've already overcome it in such a short time since you joined."

"At this rate, we'll secure victory in the first stage very soon!"

Jiang Yining smiled, but did not relax.

"That's far from enough."

"Alright, put your things down and come to my office with me."

The experiment relied on a team, not just her alone.

She had seen Su Zhiyan's performance over this period; she was pure of heart and a trustworthy partner.

She should also be involved in the core records left by her mentor.

Many things in the subsequent experiments will still depend on Zhiyan.

Upon entering the office, Jiang Yining appeared serious.

"Zhiyan, I'm asking you now, can I completely trust you?"

"What I'm about to show you is something you are strictly forbidden to reveal to anyone, not even your grandmother."

"It not only concerns the success or failure of the experiment, but also involves many other things. If it is leaked, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Su Zhiyan immediately composed herself and said firmly.

"Don't worry, Sister Ning, I'm very tight-lipped and won't reveal a single word."

Having received a firm reply, Jiang Yining no longer hesitated.

Take out your supervisor's research notes and hand them over.

Su Zhiyan carefully took the yellowed notebook, her fingertips trembling.

My eyes welled up with tears at just one glance.

"This...this is Professor Wang's notes!"

"My grandmother's biggest regret is that Professor Wang's core experimental data has been lost, and his research direction back then has no one to verify it. I never expected that this notebook would be here with you!"

A hint of emotion flashed across Jiang Yining's eyes as she spoke softly.

"Back then, I was too young and immature, and there were many things I couldn't handle."

"To protect me, my mentor shouldered all the criticism and infamy alone and was forced to retire."

"I've always thought I would slowly climb up the ladder to clear my mentor's name, but now I don't want to wait any longer."

"I need to finish the experiment as soon as possible to clear my supervisor's name."

Jiang Yining looked at Su Zhiyan solemnly and gave her repeated instructions.

"Zhiyan, entrusting this notebook to you is a sign of complete trust."

"From now on, all core data must be kept strictly confidential and must not be disclosed to the outside world in the slightest."

She paused, then added.

"Even if He Sze or other senior executives inquire, we will conceal the truth and only disclose the data that can be made public at present."

Although Su Zhiyan didn't understand why Jiang Yining deliberately mentioned President He, she still chose to trust him unconditionally.

Unlike Jiang Yining's smooth sailing, Meng Yao was on the verge of collapse.

Inside the office, documents and decorative items were scattered all over the floor.

Meng Yao's eyes were bloodshot and her expression was frantic as she smashed all the items on the table.

His eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness.

After the fire, all the classmates who participated in the gathering, except for her and Song Xi, were taken away by the police and detained to await final trial.

The Shen family used all their connections to get her released.

But her reputation was ruined.

The university that had previously hired her as an external consultant for a long time has officially sent a letter of termination, ending all cooperation.

Meanwhile, many customers also terminated their contracts due to the fire incident.

Jiang Yining is about to destroy the career and network she has painstakingly built up over the years!

Meng Yao roared and threw the vase on the table onto the ground.

"You bitch, I will never let you get away with this!"
