After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 984

Chapter 984: Trapped in Words
It was Dr. Wang.

His seventh-day ritual had passed, the funeral was over, but his attachment still lingered, so his spirit remained.

Hearing this, Zhouzhou quickly asked, “What happened? I can help!”

Ah, he almost forgot, in his panic.

Dr. Wang slapped his forehead, realizing that Zhouzhou’s medical skills were even better than theirs.

He hurriedly said, “My wife slipped and is bleeding a lot.”

As he spoke, his eyes were filled with panic.

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s face tightened. She looked at the locked door, raised her small leg, and kicked it hard.

The door flew open with a loud bang.

Zhouzhou rushed in.

Dr. Wang led the way, guiding them to the kitchen.

On the floor, there was a woman, blood pooling beneath her. She was holding her abdomen, looking in immense pain.

Hearing the noise, she mustered the strength to lift her head and weakly said, “My… my baby.”

Zhouzhou quickly approached, checked her pulse, and immediately gave her a pill.

Soon, Mrs. Wang’s face regained some color.

She looked at Zhouzhou in gratitude, then placed her hand on her stomach, panicking, “My baby, my baby!”

Zhouzhou calmly reassured her, “Don’t worry, Auntie, the baby’s fine. Don’t panic, everything’s alright.”

Then, Zhouzhou turned to Ye Lingfeng and said, “Dad, could you carry Auntie to the bedroom and let her rest properly?”

“Sure,” Ye Lingfeng nodded and did as she asked.

Mrs. Wang immediately felt the heaviness in her abdomen ease, and the panic subsided.

But that wasn’t all.

Zhouzhou had her lie down properly and then took out a gold needle, starting to insert it into her acupoints.

Instantly, a warm current surged through Mrs. Wang’s body, and she felt incredibly comfortable, looking at Zhouzhou in surprise.

Upon noticing her Fortune Hair, Mrs. Wang hesitated a second before asking, “Zhouzhou?”

Zhouzhou, slightly surprised, asked, “Auntie, do you know me?”

Mrs. Wang’s anxiety vanished in an instant, and she nodded, “Yes.”

“After the lockdown was lifted that day, his colleagues brought him back…”

She trailed off, her voice thickening, before she continued, “They told me about you, said you were amazing and even better than many doctors in duty.”

Hearing the praise, Zhouzhou’s cheeks turned slightly pink, but she scratched her head in modesty, saying, “Everyone’s medical skills are very good. They’re all amazing.”

“Mm.” Mrs. Wang nodded, her gaze drifting to a photo on the nightstand. She murmured, “His medical skills were also excellent.”

In fact, it was because he was so good that many surgeries required his expertise, leaving him no time for rest, which led to his sudden death.

As soon as Dr. Wang’s name was mentioned, the atmosphere in the room grew somber.

Dr. Wang, who stood in the corner, gazed at her with a face full of grief but didn’t dare approach.

He had realized that when he got too close to her, she became uncomfortable. After all, he was now a spirit, and the Yin energy he carried made her already fragile body react more strongly.

Zhouzhou couldn’t help but glance in his direction, sighing softly, feeling upset. She didn’t like seeing the pain of parting.

Ye Lingfeng gently stroked her head, his expression also heavy.

After a long pause, Mrs. Wang broke the silence, speaking first, “I’m a bit hungry. Little girl, could you help me get some chicken soup?”

“Of course,” Zhouzhou nodded and ran out, with Ye Lingfeng following behind.

Soon, Zhouzhou returned with a bowl of hot soup and asked curiously, “Auntie, are you home alone?”

“Yes,” Mrs. Wang nodded.

“Why? You’re pregnant. Why is there no one to take care of you?”

“My parents were here, but I sent them away.”

“Ah?” Zhouzhou’s mouth dropped open in confusion. “Why?”

Mrs. Wang smiled bitterly and placed her hand on her stomach. “Because when they were here, they insisted that I should abort the baby.”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou fell silent.

She knew about this. She had been nearby when Dr. Wang made the phone call.

Seemingly unwilling to dwell on it, Mrs. Wang rubbed her forehead and said, “Sorry, I’m a little tired. Thank you for everything today. If you don’t mind, you can have some soup.”

Zhouzhou, understanding, nodded and left the room.

Ye Lingfeng gave her a long, meaningful glance, his eyes softening. He looked down at Zhouzhou, thinking to himself, silly girl.

Zhouzhou’s little head was still drooped, feeling downcast.

Once they were outside, Dr. Wang caught up with them and couldn’t help but speak up, “Zhouzhou, could you help me… make her abort the baby?”

He spoke the words with great difficulty.

Zhouzhou furrowed her brow and shook her head. “Sorry, Uncle Wang, I can’t do that.”

“Every baby has waited a long time to be born. They worked hard to come into this world, and I can’t stop their path.”

“Besides, Auntie loves this baby. Why would you want her to abort it, Uncle Wang?”

Zhouzhou tilted her head, looking at him in confusion.

Dr. Wang’s face was full of pain.

“I don’t want to either, but…”

He stopped mid-sentence, choking back his words.

Ye Lingfeng looked at him and spoke, “The child isn’t just yours. This is something between you and your wife. You two should talk it over.”

Afterward, he turned towards the room and said, “Let’s go out and talk.”

What?

Someone’s listening?

When Mrs. Wang opened the door and walked out, Zhouzhou’s eyes widened. Ye Lingfeng pinched her cheek, muttering to himself, silly girl, you didn’t even realize you were being led into a conversation.

Just now, Mrs. Wang mentioned something about Dr. Wang’s last phone call. Zhouzhou hadn’t shown any surprise.

But now that the lockdown had been lifted in the Southwest and Dr. Wang’s ashes had been returned, his death time could no longer be concealed.

The last phone call Dr. Wang made was after he had already died.

At this point, Mrs. Wang would definitely start to feel something was wrong.

Since Zhouzhou didn’t show any shock, it meant that she knew about it.

That was why Mrs. Wang had deliberately brought them out, hoping to see what they would say.

Listening to Ye Lingfeng’s analysis, Zhouzhou felt her little brain spinning. Were adult thoughts really this complicated?

She glanced at Mrs. Wang and saw that she didn’t deny it. That confirmed everything Ye Lingfeng had said.

Zhouzhou’s head drooped further.

She didn’t want to talk.

She was the only on being left in the dark!

Mrs. Wang looked at her, a hint of guilt in her eyes. “Sorry, I really just wanted to see him.”

She cautiously asked, “Zhouzhou, can you see him?”

Zhouzhou, feeling upset for a while, finally nodded, “Yes.”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang’s face lit up with joy.

Zhouzhou looked at her, sympathy in her gaze. “But Uncle Wang will have to leave soon. If he doesn’t, he’ll become a wandering spirit.”
