Chapter 169 Pure Surrogacy & Refined Scoundrel Adopted Son 48

The old man was rushed to the emergency room.

After the doctors' efforts, his vital signs finally returned to normal.

However, he is now inseparable from the various instruments in the emergency room, such as a ventilator and a blood pressure monitor...

At that time, Ning Mochen had just cooked dinner for Chu Yuan, and the two of them got ready to go out for a stroll.

When Ning Mochen received the call from the old man's special assistant, he hesitated for a moment before putting the call on speakerphone.

"President Ning, the chairman is critically ill! This time it's for real. He went in around 2 PM and hasn't come out yet. The doctor said that even if he survives, he'll likely be dependent on the hospital's monitoring equipment. Aren't you really coming to see him?"

The assistant had been with Ning Hong for a long time and had practically watched Ning Mochen grow up.

He knew that Ning Mochen wasn't that heartless, and the chairman clearly still cared about him; otherwise, he wouldn't have kept calling his name before entering the ICU.

After hearing the news, Ning Mochen gripped the phone tightly, almost deforming it.

Chu Yuan grabbed his hand and his phone, "Why don't we go take a look?"

Actually, he is your grandfather, but he is also mine.

However, if they're lying, I'll absolutely ignore any more calls like that in the future, and even if the old man really does kill someone, I won't regret it!

No one wants to be deceived again and again.

It's especially annoying to have your sympathy taken advantage of.

Ning Mochen clearly hadn't expected Chu Yuan to agree; he thought she would want to sever all ties with the Ning family forever...

After all, she was different from herself. She wasn't even his biological daughter and had been carefully nurtured by her grandfather. She, on the other hand, had never enjoyed any of the Ning family's benefits except for her physical appearance.

As they grew up, they were subjected to psychological manipulation by these individuals, and they even nearly lost their lives.

If it were me, I wouldn't want to say another word to someone like that!

So what if they're your own children? How many people in this world use the word "own children" to harm their own flesh and blood?

Chu Yuan snorted softly at Ning Mochen's surprised expression, "I allowed you to go see him, but I didn't say I was going myself. I'm going to see Grandma."

Ning Hong is dying, but her grandmother is doing well and will be discharged from the hospital soon.

However, I was frightened by what she did online these past few days. Last night, I called her in the middle of the night to tell her to take good care of herself and to ask if she had any food at home, and if so, if not, she could send her some.

Chu Yuan found it both funny and heartwarming at the time.

Why would a sickly old woman be the one to be involved? She's not a delicate flower in a greenhouse, so fragile.

Besides, even if someone else were to deliver it, could it be Ning Mochen or Xu Yan? Please don't trouble her.

"Okay, whatever you say." Ning Mochen took out the car and sped off with Chu Yuan to Ning's International Hospital.

Chu Yuan discovered that after he left Ning's, he kept a low profile for a few days, spending time with her in the small house eating, drinking, playing, and having fun. But in the blink of an eye, Ning Mochen, no longer the president of Ning's, seemed to be even richer.

He bought a new luxury car without hesitation.

They also booked the best postpartum care center for her well in advance.

He also said he would take her to look at diamond rings and asked if she wanted to have a wedding now, or after the baby was born, or even a destination wedding if all else failed? Anyway, Chu Yuan's pregnancy symptoms were very mild, so it shouldn't affect her going out for a trip. The world is so big, maybe by the time they come back from their trip, the baby will be born.

Chu Yuan, "..."

Can she really enjoy herself like that?

Indeed, one should not doubt oneself, or Heaven will surely cause trouble for you.

With Ning Hong ill, Ning Mochen had much less interest in eating, drinking, and having fun, and the two of them stayed in the hospital for three days.

However, there is also good news: Chu Yuan's first drama, "Deep in the Palace," has been broadcast ahead of schedule.

The original schedule was for next year, but somehow it was moved up.

Everyone thought the production team was very brave. At this critical moment, even though the scandal of Chu Yuan's surrogacy was barely cleared up because Chairman Ning personally stood up to clarify, the matter was still making a lot of noise online. Shouldn't they take a break?

Why are Director He and Writer Lian so confident in this drama?

Regardless of the various speculations, the TV series has been broadcast.

Because the surrogacy issue caused such a huge uproar, Chu Yuan became both famous and infamous. Everyone was eager to see her performance in the drama, and they had already prepared their nitpicking and cursing remarks.

However, when the show aired, Chu Yuan only made her appearance at the end of the first episode. She wore a pink and white casual dress with subtle peach petal patterns, which not only amazed the teaching nanny but also the audience.

The comments section was filled with: "[Ahhhhh, what kind of divine looks are these?]"

How can someone look so good in ancient costume? Look at me, sister!

[Our Yuanyuan's outfit, no exaggeration, is the epitome of the "white lotus" image; this role is perfect for her!]

[Holy crap, who says otherwise! That damn iQiyi only releases one episode a day, it's driving me crazy!]

Of course, there were also criticisms, with sarcastic comments criticizing Chu Yuan for lacking acting skills and saying that she was just a pretty face and wouldn't last more than three episodes.

Chu Yuan had an incredibly positive attitude. Not only did she not care about these comments at all, she even watched her own drama with Grandma Li in the hospital room and discussed the plot.

Grandma Li was amused and kept laughing. The nurse couldn't help but come in and remind her, "Grandma Li, you have a heart condition, so you can't be too emotional. Miss Chu, please take it easy too..."

"Um, actually... I'm watching it too. Miss Chu is so beautiful, she and our CEO Ning are a match made in heaven!"

The nurse ran off as soon as she finished speaking, as if afraid that Chu Yuan would thank her.

...

Zhou Manyun waited anxiously for the blood test results for three days. During those three days, she couldn't eat or sleep well, and although she accompanied Ning Muwan several times, her mind was filled with Chu Yuan.
