Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 445

Chapter 445: Chapter 440 Yan Jinsu Shows Her Power for the First Time 24

——————

"This guy is being foolish again!" Xie Jingchen helplessly commented, the Yan brothers always have no control when it comes to their little wife, continually refreshing his understanding of them.

"Uh, let’s ignore him. Hubby, I want to go see Mr. Liu first." Yan Jinsu gently grabbed her husband’s elbow, expressing her worries.

She had not yet visited Mr. Liu since returning, and hearing Vice Officer Guan’s words, her heart had been hanging on the old man’s condition.

Seeing is believing.

"Okay." On hearing it, Xie Jingchen sighed, his face taking on a serious expression. He then grasped his little wife’s hand in his palm tightly twice, only releasing her cool little hand after leading the way.

As for her husband’s gesture, Yan Jinsu had gotten used to it. Being a military officer, one must always be mindful of one’s image, especially within the military realm.

The two did not converse much on their way, just quietly walking on the tree-lined path leading to the Rong Medical Department, occasionally encountering hurrying military officers or Little Rongs sprinting in quick steps.

Whenever they saw Xie Jingchen, they would salute, then make sure he and his wife were out of sight before quickly walking away.

The hierarchy in the military was strict.

Discipline in the military was like a mountain.

It was not until they arrived at Liu Aimin’s hospital room that Xie Jingchen put an arm around his little wife’s shoulder and softly conveyed the doctor’s assessment of Liu Aimin’s condition.

Even though Yan Jinsu had already heard a description from Vice Officer Guan, when she saw for herself – it had only been three days – Mr. Liu’s physical state had deteriorated as if he was an old man on his deathbed.

Yan Jinsu covered her mouth, muffling the sob rising in her throat.

His hair, although snowy white and revealing his age, used to be dense and vibrant, but now sparse and few in strands, his wrinkled face had many more age spots, double than before.

His old hands revealed on the white sheets were dry and thin as kindling...

"How could it have gotten this bad so suddenly?" Yan Jinsu, sitting on the chair by the hospital bed, naturally grasped the old man’s hands, almost sobbing.

"Mr. Liu is old and has been stressed continuously," Xie Jingchen turned his head away, unable to continue his sentence.

Xie Jingchen had deeper feelings for Liu Aimin than Yan Jinsu, benefiting greatly from this elder-like grandfather figure.

Now, seeing him suffer in his old age, his heart was extremely angry with Liu Dongzhu, so much so that he had no intention of denying his little wife any of her requests.

In his heart, Liu Dongzhu did not deserve to be Mr. Liu’s granddaughter.

Yan Jinsu had genuine affection for Mr. Liu, even more than for her own Yan Family. When she had first arrived, it was he, along with Uncle Zhang and others who offered her familial affection.

Especially when her husband was away, though she had approached Mr. Liu with an agenda, the relationships between individuals, apart from self-interest, also encompassed familial and friendship bonds.

Now, seeing the once cheerful old man wither away to a skeletal state, as if he could become dust at any moment...

"Silly girl, don’t be afraid. I’m here, I’m always here. Sweetheart~ Mr. Liu had reached the end of his life, it’s a blissful demise, don’t overthink it, I and our babies are here!"

"Umm, wuu~~!" Yan Jinsu cried uncontrollably.

Fortunately, other than the couple, there was no one else in the sickroom, which allowed Xie Jingchen to fully comfort her properly until she collected her sorrow.

Barely having dried her tears, Yan Jinsu saw Xie Jingchen’s Military Uniform soaked from shoulder to chest, her eyes moistened again upon seeing this, she pursed her white lips, her face slightly embarrassed as she turned away, her swollen red eyes narrowing abruptly asking:

"Brother Chen, what about Wang Lixing?"

Upon hearing this name, Xie Jingchen’s face also darkened, seeing his little wife’s fierce look, he quickly grasped her small hand, speaking directly:

"Wife, Wang Lixing has been taken to the Rong military court, he can’t escape from the crimes he committed, don’t dirty your hands."

"I—"

"Wife, don’t you trust me?" Xie Jingchen intertwined their fingers tightly, his deep tiger eyes gently gazing at her, those bright and clear large almond eyes, lightly curving into a smile, confidently speaking:

"Trust your husband, I, Xie Jingchen, am not yet defeated. If he has a powerful family like the Wu Family or Yan Family behind him, I might not be able to touch him for a short while.

But Wang Lixing is just a commoner, he can’t even walk properly yet and he wants to run? Wife, rest assured, I will definitely avenge Mr. Liu. To deal with him, your husband has plenty of ways to make sure he never recovers!"

"Hmm! He wants to climb up, right? Husband, let him be forever stuck as a worthless mud," Yan Jinsu squinted coldly, grinding her teeth.

For an ambitious and desiring military officer like Wang Lixing, to be unable to achieve success or stand out for a lifetime, to always have to submit to others like a dog, that was the cruelest torture.
