Chapter 799: 800, Decided to Adopt (Second Update)

Tong Zhi was currently in a relationship with Mo Fengxu, or, to use the words of young people today, they were in their honeymoon phase. However, Tong Zhi had suddenly brought ho two children, which made Mrs. Mo, the elder, a bit worried that Mo Fengxu might not be able to accept this.

Speaking of Mo Fengxu, a touch of sorrow flickered across the depths of Tong Zhi’s eyes but quickly faded. She continued, "I will discuss this matter personally with him. If he can accept it, we will carry on with our relationship, and it’ll be easy to talk about everything else. If he can’t, then we may as well break up. After all, I can’t have children of my own."

Mrs. Mo sighed. Upon further reflection, Tong Zhi adopting these two children wasn’t a bad thing at all, but rather a good thing. As Tong Zhi had said, she was unable to conceive, and in her lifeti, she was destined not to have her own children. If one were to adopt from an orphanage, it was rare to find newborns, as most of the children were at least eight years old.

Those children already had their own minds and even if they were adopted, there would be a barrier between them and their adoptive parents.

But it was different with newborns.

Raising a newborn oneself, there was hardly any difference from one’s own flesh and blood. As long as it was kept a secret, and nothing was said in the future, the children would never discover their true origins.

When Tong Zhi grew old, she could also experience the joy of having children and grandchildren around her.

With these thoughts in mind, Mrs. Mo held the baby in her arms and patted Tong Zhi’s hand, speaking slowly, "Little Zhi, since you have made up your mind, I support you. But I must tell you, since you have decided to adopt these two children, you must take on the responsibilities of a mother, beco disciplined. These children are not little cats or dogs that you can just take care of casually. They need love and care, and they need patience..."

Mrs. Mo was thorough in her explanation, and Tong Zhi listened attentively. She nodded seriously, "Sister, rest assured, I will raise these two children properly and be a good mother."

"That’s good," Mrs. Mo nodded, and then said, "If things really don’t work out, just hire two maternity matrons."

"No," Tong Zhi shook her head, "Heaven has already deprived

of the right to be a mother; I don’t want to lose the joy of raising children myself."

There was a ti when Tong Zhi thought she would never have children of her own.

But now, she had a son and a daughter.

Just thinking of the day when the children would call her "Mom" filled her heart with a sense of contentnt, a feeling beyond description...

It was very blissful.

Tong Zhi then said, "Sister, how about this, Jin hasn’t given birth yet, so why don’t you stay at my place for a few more days in the anti and teach

how to take care of children, what I need to pay attention to."

Mrs. Mo thought for a mont, then nodded, "Alright, then I’ll call Little Yan and ask her to accompany Chu Jin for the next few days." With a pregnant woman in the house, Mrs. Mo wouldn’t be at ease without an experienced elder present.

"Thank you, sister." Tong Zhi expressed her thanks happily.

"When have you ever been so formal with ?" Mrs. Mo said with a smile as she looked up.

"Right, call back ho and ask the butler to find a pediatric specialist to co over. I’m worried about any health issues the children might have." Mrs. Mo continued.

After all, two children had already died, and it would be good to ensure no unclean diseases were present.

Sotis, parents abandon their children not because they can’t support them, but because the child has a severe illness.

Tong Zhi nodded, carefully placed the children on the seat, and picked up her phone to call the butler.

After hanging up, Tong Zhi pondered over the nas for the children.

About half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a luxurious villa.

The butler imdiately ca out to greet them, saying very respectfully, "Madam, Mrs. Mo."

Although it was odd that both of them were carrying infants, the butler neither said anything more nor looked too closely, but helped the driver take things out of the trunk.

Tong Zhi followed and said, "Move all these things to my bedroom, and butler, have you found the pediatric specialist I asked for?"

"Madam, the specialist is already inside, Doctor Li," the butler replied.

"Good," Tong Zhi nodded with satisfaction, looked at Mrs. Mo, and then said, "Sister, let’s go in."

"Alright." Perhaps feeling a little sore in her arms, Mrs. Mo carefully adjusted her hold on the baby, who fortunately continued to sleep soundly, undisturbed.

The two won entered the house.

A servant brought over a man in a white coat, who approached Tong Zhi, "Madam, this is Doctor Li."

The doctor appeared young, yet he exuded a stable aura, "Madam Tong, hello, I am Li Xiang."

Tong Zhi gave a slight nod, "Doctor Li, could you please check these two children for ?"

Hearing this, the two assistants behind Li Xiang imdiately took the children from Tong Zhi and Mrs. Mo.

Li Xiang adjusted his glasses and continued, "All right, please wait a mont, you two." With that, Li Xiang went with his assistant to another room.

The doctor’s equipnt was all stored in a space, but a quiet and enclosed environnt was necessary for a physical examination.

Tong Zhi and the elderly Mrs. Mo sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting quietly for the examination results.

Tong Zhi poured a glass of water for the elderly Mrs. Mo and then said, "Sis, I just ca up with nas for the children on the way here." Tong Zhi had already decided that even if the child was unhealthy, she would still raise it. The checkup was rely to give her peace of mind.

If there really was an issue, it would be better to treat it promptly.

"So soon?" the elderly Mrs. Mo smiled, looking up curiously and asked, "What nas did you choose? Let’s hear them?"

"The brother is nad Xiangru, and the sister, Yimo. Sis, what do you think of these nas?" It was not easy for these two children to survive. Tong Zhi chose these nas with the hope that whatever adversities they faced in the future, they would not forget each other and would do their utmost to help one another.

Actually, Tong Zhi didn’t know which of the two children would co out first, but since girls are ant to be cherished, she directly deed the girl the younger sister and the boy the elder brother. From then on, the brother would be responsible for protecting his sister.

"Xiangru and Yimo," the elderly Mrs. Mo narrowed her eyes, pondered for a mont, and then approved, "These nas are very good, very aningful."

Upon hearing this, Tong Zhi imdiately smiled and said, "Right? Sis, since you also think they’re good, let’s go with these nas."

"Certainly," the elderly Mrs. Mo nodded.

Just then, Li Xiang and his assistants ca out of the inner room, carrying the children. Seeing this, Tong Zhi quickly went over and took one of the children, asking anxiously, "Doctor Li, how are the children?"

Li Xiang removed his mask, smiled, and said, "Mrs. Tong, please rest assured, the children are very healthy. Although they are premature, their developnt is good. Aside from a sowhat weak constitution, there are no other issues."

"That’s good," Tong Zhi and the elderly Mrs. Mo both sighed with relief. Tong Zhi then said, "Butler, bring the red packets."

The butler quickly brought over the red packets, and Tong Zhi handed the child to the butler, then personally presented the red packet to Doctor Li, smiling as she said, "Doctor Li, thank you for saving my son and daughter. This is a token of my gratitude, please be sure to accept it."

Tong Zhi’s words were not only for Doctor Li to hear but also for the other servants in the room.

As these words were spoken, everyone showed a look of surprise, incredulously watching Tong Zhi, wondering what had happened to their master. She had been normal when she left in the morning, so how could she have returned in the evening with two such large children?

However, since Tong Zhi had openly said so, they, as outsiders, did not have the right to question it.

There were too many unmarried parents in the Superpower World.

Since Tong Zhi said these were her son and daughter, then they were her son and daughter.

Li Xiang accepted the red packet and left with his assistants.

That evening, the elderly Mrs. Mo did not leave. After making a phone call back ho, she stayed over at Tong Zhi’s place.

Overnight, Mrs. Tong, who had been all alone, suddenly had two children. The news quickly spread through the circles of the nobility.

The following day, Tong Zhi called over Mo Fengxu, and in front of the elderly Mrs. Mo, she told him about it.

After she finished speaking, Mo Fengxu also wore an incredulous expression.

Tong Zhi looked up at him and thought to herself that there might not be much hope for her and Mo Fengxu. After all, no man wanted to beco a father so unexpectedly. She took a light sip of coffee and then said, "Think it over. Whatever decision you make, I can understand. After all, everyone’s worldview is different."

"The children, may I see them?" Mo Fengxu asked, off-topic.

Tong Zhi raised an eyebrow and then nodded, "Sure, Mrs. Lin, bring the children over."

Before long, Mrs. Lin and another matron brought the children over. Mo Fengxu stood up, looked at Tong Zhi, and asked, "May I hold them?"

Tong Zhi, puzzled, still nodded.

Mo Fengxu nervously took one of the children into his arms and then asked, "What are the children’s nas?"

Mo Fengxu looked extrely nervous, and it was difficult to tell whether his expression was one of liking or sothing else. Tong Zhi was also unable to grasp his thoughts. She continued, "The one you’re holding is the elder brother; his na is Tong Xiangru, and the girl is Tong Yimo."

"Xiangru and Yimo, good nas," Mo Fengxu smiled slightly, then as if he rembered sothing, added, "No, no, if they take the surna Tong, then they would be nad after their mother. They should take the father’s surna, nad Mo Xiangru and Mo Yimo."

Upon hearing this, a look of joy flashed in the eyes of the elderly Mrs. Mo.

Tong Zhi hadn’t grasped the aning of his words yet when Mo Fengxu looked at her seriously and said, "Little Yan, if you’re willing to trust , let’s go register our marriage today. From now on, I will be the biological father of these children!"

Mo Fengxu was aware of Tong Zhi’s circumstances. He truly liked her as a person. For love, even without children of his own, it didn’t matter.

After all, one cannot have the best of both worlds.

Mo Fengxu didn’t care much about offspring, and besides, now Heaven had directly solved the issue of children for them.

"You..." Tong Zhi thought she was hallucinating and reached out to touch Mo Fengxu’s forehead, "You don’t have a fever, do you?"

"No! I’m very clear-headed right now! Little Zhi, I love you!" Mo Fengxu confessed affectionately while holding the child.

Tong Zhi hesitated, then said, "Do you know that I can’t have children of my own? Are you really sure you want to be with ?" Tong Zhi was a very rational person; she didn’t want Mo Fengxu to regret his decision in the future.

The Mo family was after all a large clan, not like those small families.

Mo Fengxu’s marriage involved the whole family; it was no longer just his own affair.

Mo Fengxu handed the child back to Mrs. Li and pulled a ring from his pocket, then knelt on one knee, "Little Zhi, I know everything you’ve ntioned, those are not problems in my eyes. What I love is just you, the person. Actually, I’ve prepared this ring for a long ti but never had the courage to give it to you. Luckily, Heaven has given

this opportunity today. Please do not reject . Give

the chance to love you and the child—I promise I’ll fully take on the responsibility of a husband."

Tong Zhi didn’t imdiately take the ring, not because she didn’t love Mo Fengxu, but because she needed ti to think.

She had already lost the right to beco a mother; she didn’t want to make Mo Fengxu lose the right to be a father.

Marriage and love are entirely different things.

Once she accepted the ring, there would be no turning back, for her or for Mo Fengxu.

Being human, one shouldn’t be so selfish.

"Stand up first, give

so ti to think," Tong Zhi said, reaching out to help Mo Fengxu.

But Mo Fengxu did not stand up, as if he could see through Tong Zhi’s concerns, he continued, "Little Zhi, I really love you. Rest assured, our Mo family is not so destitute that we need to use my marriage for anything. Marry , and let’s raise these two children together. From now on, they will be our own flesh and blood! I swear, I will treat you both very well!"

Old Lady Mo urged from the side, "Little Zhi, Feng Xu has already said so much, what are you still hesitating for?"

Mo Fengxu was already at an age where the Mo family had prepared for him to remain a bachelor for life. Now that he could be with Tong Zhi and also had two children, it was a great blessing for the Mo family.

Tong Zhi bit her lip and did not imdiately accept, but said instead, "Feng Xu, think it over carefully, I don’t want you to regret it later."

Mo Fengxu held up the ring earnestly, "Little Zhi, rest assured, marrying you is the greatest fortune of my life. I’m too happy to have any regrets. Marry ! I’ve checked the calendar, and today is an auspicious day for weddings—it’s a great day to get a marriage certificate!"

"Little Zhi! Don’t hesitate anymore, opportunities like this don’t co twice," Old Lady Mo nudged Tong Zhi’s waist and whispered in her ear, "Honest n like Feng Xu are hard to co by these days! You must seize the opportunity!"

Having been married into the Mo family for decades, Old Lady Mo understood Mo Fengxu’s character more than anyone. She believed that if Tong Zhi married him, she would truly be marrying for love.

She didn’t want her only sister to miss out on this happiness.

"Sister, I..." Tong Zhi quietly pinched the palm of Old Lady Mo’s hand, "I’m actually a bit nervous..."

This was, after all, a matter for a lifeti; it was normal to be a bit nervous.

"Don’t be nervous; I’m here for you, go ahead..." Old Lady Mo patted Tong Zhi’s hand, comforting her.

Tong Zhi took a deep breath, didn’t care about much else anymore, and stepped forward to take the ring from Mo Fengxu’s hand.

Seeing this, Old Lady Mo showed a relieved smile.

She knew that this was a ti to leave the two alone, so she said to the servants, "Mrs. Li, let’s take the children out to bask in the sun."

"Yes, Old Lady," Mrs. Li smiled and nodded, "I’ll go get the stroller."

All of the baby stuff had been delivered that morning after Tong Zhi made a phone call.

Old Lady Mo picked up one of the children, "Xiangru, let’s go. We’ll join Mrs. Li to push the stroller."

Mrs. Li was holding Yimo in her arms.

Soon, the living room was left clean, with just Tong Zhi and Mo Fengxu remaining.

Mo Fengxu placed the ring on Tong Zhi’s ring finger, then kissed her lips deeply.

Both were lost in the kiss.

In fact, Tong Zhi and Mo Fengxu were about the sa age, but they looked more like a daughter and father combination.

However, appearance-wise, Tong Zhi looked more than a decade younger than Mo Fengxu.

Yet, this could not stop them from loving each other.

After the kiss was over, Mo Fengxu took Tong Zhi’s hand and said, "Little Zhi, will you co with

to get the certificate? Then, we’ll have a grand wedding."

"Okay," Tong Zhi nodded, then added, "But I’d like the wedding to be low-key, just a al together with family mbers is fine." On one hand, the child was too young; on the other hand, because they were already at this age, they no longer needed a high-profile wedding.

At their age, the best thing was to settle down.

Steady and stable, that is happiness.

"I’ll listen to whatever you say." Mo Fengxu’s eyes and brows were full of Tong Zhi, and he said sowhat impatiently, "Then let’s hurry up and go, the next two hours are an auspicious ti."

"Okay," Tong Zhi followed Mo Fengxu out, then said, "Oh, wait a mont, I’m going to say goodbye to my sister."

"There’s no need to say goodbye, she already knows." Mo Fengxu held onto Tong Zhi’s wrist, leading her out the door.

Tong Zhi smiled and did not insist, and they both left the house together.

Because Mo Fengxu was there, they didn’t ask the driver to follow. During the drive, Mo Fengxu spared no effort in showing Tong Zhi his superb racing skills.

**

On the other side.

At the hospital.

Duanmu Sheng woke up from her coma and the first thing she saw was Duanmu Canghai sleeping beside the hospital bed.

In just two days, Duanmu Canghai seed to have aged more than ten years. His pale face had no hint of color, only fatigue.

Duanmu Sheng’s eyes reddened at this sight, and tears surged forth.

But Duanmu Sheng quickly realized sothing was off. She had taken so many sleeping pills that she should have died by now; how could she still be seeing her father?

Looking at the surrounding environnt, it seed she should be in a hospital ward.

What was really going on?

Duanmu Sheng couldn’t help but lift her hand, but a tearing pain from her chest made her gasp softly.

It hurt.

Like being flayed and sliced.

It was this slight noise that startled the sleeping Duanmu Canghai beside her. Seeing Duanmu Sheng awake, he stood up excitedly, his face full of joy as he said, "Sheng Sheng, you’ve finally woken up! Sheng Sheng, are you hungry? What do you want to eat? Do you want water?"

Duanmu Canghai asked Duanmu Sheng three questions in a row, leaving her sowhat unable to respond for a while.

She looked at Duanmu Canghai, sniffled, and asked with a choked voice, "Dad, this isn’t a dream, right? Am I still alive?"

Duanmu Sheng found it hard to believe that she was still alive.

She knew about the doctor telling Duanmu Canghai and Zhou Jin to prepare her burial clothes.

In fact, she was conscious for a mont then.

But that was only for a brief while.

Apart from knowing about the burial clothes, she didn’t know anything else.

For example, how she ca back to life?

After all, she had already been declared as dead by the doctor.

"Silly child, this isn’t a dream," Duanmu Canghai’s excitent made his eyes redden, "It was Mrs. Jiu who saved you. Rest assured, you’re all right now. Just focus on recovering."

Seeing his daughter awaken with his own eyes made Duanmu Canghai happier than anyone else.

"Is my Sheng Sheng waking up?" Perhaps it was a mother-daughter telepathy, Zhou Jin rushed to the neighboring ward the mont she woke up, inquiring about Duanmu Sheng’s condition.

"Yes, Sheng Sheng is awake," Duanmu Canghai grabbed Zhou Jin’s hand, his face brimming with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhou Jin was very excited. She quickly went to Duanmu Sheng’s bedside, bending down to shower Duanmu Sheng’s face with kisses and hugs, "Sheng Sheng ah, you’ve finally woken up! I’m not dreaming, am I?"
