While Tan Meng was pouring Yan Yi a cup of black tea, Bi Ruijing suddenly appeared by the door, his expression unpleasant, “There’s an urgent matter, we’re making a trip to the hospital.”

Tan Meng wrinkled his beautiful eyebrows, “What happened?”

Bi Ruijing glanced at Yan Yi and couldn’t hold back the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Across the doorway, Yan Yi saw Lu Shangjin hurrying downstairs with his coat. 

The three of them left in a rush. Tan Meng couldn’t sit still as well, so he asked the nanny to bring him his coat. 

Completely indifferent, Yan Yi lowered his head to eat the cake. 

“Are you coming with me?” Tan Meng turned the car keys between his fingers, “Your alpha seemed very worried.”

“I’m not going.” Yan Yi ate the cake quietly. 

He was used to not pursuing matters that Lu Shangjin did not want him to know about, so as to give each other some space and decency. 

Now, their relationship had already eased a lot. Lu Shangjin seemed to have really changed his character. Yan Yi didn’t want to cause complications. He didn’t want to see anything that he shouldn’t be seeing and ruin the trust that had just been restored between them. 

“Hm, don’t spoil Lu Shangjin too much…I have to go and take a look.” Tan Meng put on his coat and hurried downstairs. 

Yan Yi had no choice. It made one worry to let such a little capsicum1 go out by himself. 

Tan Meng drove fiercely, and it could be seen that Bi Ruijing was the one who taught him those skills. Sitting in the passenger seat, Yan Yi could only hold onto the armrest tightly all the way until they arrived at An Fei Ya hospital. 

Even if a two-week old infant who suffered from multiple organ failures was cured, the possibility of having serious aftereffects was extremely high. The most that could happen was damage to the nervous system, such as cerebral palsy. 

Yan Yi entered the hospital and saw Lu Shangjin sitting on the ground outside the intensive care unit.

Lying inside, with the glass against its back was the corpse of an infant, stiff and ashen.

Yan Yi’s heart suddenly clenched, his vision turning dark for a moment. 

Was it Lu Shangjin’s child?

He didn’t want to get closer, but Tan Meng caught his wrist and brought him to Lu Shangjin. 

Lu Shangjin was leaning against the glass curtain wall. Even though he was dressed neatly, there was still a trace of dejection and soullessness in his vacant gaze.

With hands on the glass, Yan Yi watched the infant sleeping peacefully inside. It was a peregrine falcon baby, its wrinkly face thin and pitiful, which would have been handsome and lovely if it grew up. It’s a pity that it died before it was a full month old. 

Even if this was Lu Shangjin’s baby with another omega, Yan Yi was still unable to take pleasure in someone else’s misfortune, his sadness transmitting from his fingers through the glass. 

Lu Shangjin said in a low and hoarse voice:

“It’s Ye Wan’s child. My little brother.”

Yan Yi’s fingers quivered as he stared down at him with wide eyes, “Ten years ago, didn’t Uncle Wan already…”
