Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1066: Chapter 1066: The Appearance of Jian Yufei’s Face Chapter 1066: Chapter 1066: The Appearance of Jian Yufei’s Face Mrs. Ruan turned around, her eyes red as she threw herself towards her, “Yufei, go check on Tianling!”

Jian Yufei’s pupils contracted, and her heart skipped a beat, a sense of panic arising without warning.

“Mom, what’s wrong?” she asked uneasily.

Mrs. Ruan clutched her arm, crying, “He risked his own life just to see you… I had no other choice but to come to you… Yufei, he’s my only son, I can’t just watch as something happens to him…”

Jian Yufei felt a chill in her limbs, as if all the blood in her body had frozen.

She cradled her belly and struggled to say, “Mom, can we sit down and talk, please?”

She was afraid she would not be able to stand firm…

The maid hurried over to support her, and Mrs. Ruan, noticing her pallor, also came to help.

“All right, let’s sit down and talk.”

They helped her sit down, and Mrs. Ruan took a seat beside her.

“Yufei, Tianling originally asked us to keep it from you, to not tell you anything. But just now I heard him insisting on coming back to see you, yet he absolutely shouldn’t, not in his condition. If he does, his life could be in great danger… Yufei, I really had no choice but to beg you!”

Mrs. Ruan covered her mouth and began to cry softly.

Jian Yufei’s face turned even paler: “Mom, I don’t understand what you’re saying… What’s wrong with Ruan Tianling? What happened?”

Mrs. Ruan took her hand and wept, “He’s been framed, poisoned by something. Now he can only live in a sterile hospital room; otherwise, his condition will quickly deteriorate… Once he leaves the room, he could catch various diseases and… and he could die without treatment…”

Boom–

Jian Yufei’s eyes widened in shock, and she swayed involuntarily.

She steadied herself against the sofa, taking a moment to calm her racing heart.

“Yufei, you’re pregnant now, I shouldn’t be telling you all this. But you know Tianling’s temper; once he decides on something, nobody can change his mind. He insists on coming back to see you, and he will. We also can’t keep it from you forever. No one knows how much longer he has to live, so I thought it was better for you to know sooner. Even if his condition is beyond help, you could spend more time with him, make his last days happier…”

Tears immediately blurred Jian Yufei’s vision, making everything indistinct.

“Where is he now?” she asked, trembling.

*****************

Ruan Tianling stood in front of the amber glass window, gazing at the vehicles and pedestrians coming and going downstairs, his expression dark.

If not for his loved ones, he would never choose to languish here, clinging to life.

Even in death, he didn’t want to be ‘imprisoned’ like this.

If it was the old him, perhaps he could have been carefree, fearless and unconcerned.

But not anymore…

He now had the woman he loved, and two sons.

He couldn’t abandon them, nor could he neglect his aging elders…

Indeed, having too many attachments brings much suffering.

Yet such suffering is also accompanied by happiness.

Just the thought of Jian Yufei would involuntarily bring a smile to his lips.

Ruan Tianling rested his hand against the glass, his gaze lost in the distance, his lips curving into a beautiful arc.

Suddenly, Jian Yufei’s face appeared, blurry on the glass surface.

Her eyes wide, staring at him…

Ruan Tianling thought he was hallucinating and gazed at her infatuatedly, unwilling even to blink.
