Chapter 2
Changing Wards
At this moment, Jiang Ling had already returned to his office excitedly. He only calmed down after making a few calls in a minute. Thinking of Tan Ming’s hospitalization environment, he called the inpatient department and forced them to squeeze out a VIP single room despite the hospital experiencing a dire shortage of spaces.
When Li Mei saw her husband hanging up the phone, she nervously pulled Jiang Hai and waited for her husband’s response expectantly. “Hubby, Brother-in-law said that you found our daughter just now?!”
Jiang Hai’s eyes were filled with joy as he nodded. “Yes, let’s set off for Sea City immediately!”
Jiang Hai called his secretary with trembling hands and asked him to book the earliest flight ticket.
Li Mei covered her mouth tightly with both hands as tears streamed down her face. Their family had searched for more than 20 years and had never given up. However, every time they did an identification test with hope and ended up with disappointment, their spirit would tire. Hence, Li Mei still found it unbelievable after hearing Jiang Hai’s words.
Only when she was hugged by her husband did Li Mei cry bitterly. “My daughter! She hasn’t been by our side for so many years. I don’t know how much she’s suffered!”
Jiang Hai raised his head and blinked, holding back his tears. He comforted his wife, “It’s all in the past. Bring our daughter back and we’ll dote on her properly.”
Li Mei nodded as she cried. “Hubby, get someone to investigate how our daughter has been all these years. When we weren’t by her side, was she treated well or not? Was she happy or unhappy?”
Jiang Hai only knew his daughter’s current name and hospital. However, this was enough, given the Jiang family’s power. On the way to the airport, he instructed his secretary to start an investigation.
After Jiang Yan received Jiang Ling’s call, he quickly put the documents on the table into his office bag. Just as he was about to leave, he received a call from his second brother, Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun’s anxious voice rang out. “Big Brother, Uncle just called me to say that he found Little Sister!”
Jiang Yan quickly locked the door and entered the elevator. He replied, “I know. I’m going to the airport now.”
When Jiang Xun heard this, he was secretly delighted. “Then you must be slower than me! I happen to be in the neighboring city. I’m a two-hour drive away!”
Jiang Yan snorted. “I’m afraid you’ve forgotten that Third Brother is holding a concert in Sea City.”
Jiang Xun suddenly recalled this. “F*ck! I’m hanging up!”
Jiang Xun hung up the phone, got in the car and sped all the way. He had to be the first to see his little sister!
At this moment, Tan Ming was busy taking care of her two children in the ward. Perhaps because they were twins, when one of them cried, the other immediately chimed in like a duet.
Fortunately, Tan Ming had taken a maternity course before. After clumsily checking, she realized that it was not soiled diapers that caused the crying. Hence, she made them two bottles of milk. When the two pacifiers touched the corners of the babies’ mouths, the two little fellows instinctively tilted their heads and sucked on them.
Tan Ming wiped the sweat off her forehead and looked at the obedient babies with a satisfied expression. “Baby, Mommy will only have you guys in the future. Let’s work hard together!”
Jiang Ling and a man wearing a cap, a mask, and sunglasses were carefully looking in through the transparent glass strips on the door.
The moment Jiang Huai saw Tan Ming, he instantly knew that she was his younger sister. Other than the resemblance, there was also the feeling of kinship. “It’s obvious that she’s An’an! Her eyebrows and eyes look exactly like my father’s. Her facial structure is like my mother’s. The rest of her looks like me!”
Jiang Ling looked at Jiang Huai in disdain. “Our little An’an is much prettier than you. Stand over a little. I’m going to open the door. The room over there is empty. Move An’an over first.”
Jiang Huai replied and the two of them pushed the door open.
Tan Ming was feeding the babies with their milk bottles with a smile on her face when she suddenly sensed two figures beside her. She looked up and saw Doctor Jiang, who had seen her earlier, and a man whose face could not be seen at all. A puzzled expression appeared on her face.
Jiang Ling looked at the crowded ward and didn’t say anything. “Tan Ming, you have to change wards.”
Everyone looked over when they heard that.
“Doctor, why are you changing rooms? Do you have a single room?!”
“Doctor, if there’s a room, we’ll change wards too! You can’t play favorites.”
Jiang Ling complained, deep down, that as the deputy director, he had to threaten the hospital with the latest research results to get a single room. How could it be their turn? He waved his hand impatiently and said, “This is the hospital’s arrangement. If you want to stay in a single room, just register at the front desk.”
“It’s so annoying. The population is so big that we can’t even snatch a hospital bed if we give birth to a child.”
“Of course. I’ve already had three children. The best one has only lived in a double room!”
There were complaints in the ward, but Tan Ming did not think too much about it. She thought that it was a normal ward adjustment and got up obediently to get her pregnancy bag and luggage.
Jiang Huai stepped forward to stop her. “Don’t move, don’t move. I’ll do it. You just gave birth, so you can’t tire yourself out.”
Jiang Huai’s tone was unusually gentle. If his fans and manager saw this, they would be so shocked that they would think that Jiang Huai’s soul had been swapped.
Jiang Ling pushed the moving bed and said softly to Tan Ming, “We’ll do it. Just take care of yourself.”
Tan Ming was a little confused. When did the hospital’s service become so good? Could it be that they wanted to move her to a worse room and were afraid that she would cause trouble, so they were so attentive?
Although she was puzzled, Tan Ming was used to injustice. She had no one to rely on. In order to survive, she had no choice but to endure it most of the time. It was fine as long as the babies were not hurt. Otherwise, she would fight to the end even if she had to risk her life.
Jiang Huai looked at her younger sister, who was obediently following beside him, and his heart ached. The eldest daughter of the Jiang family should be unrestrained, arrogant, and domineering. She must have suffered a lot to be so obedient.
