Shen Jingyu held Su Xing's hand tightly, not letting go. He replied softly with an "mm." 0
 
Pei Yufei, however, did not have the same pitiful demeanor as Han Ruoxi; he exuded a sense of righteousness. Yet, there was a hint of admiration in his gaze, akin to that of a young girl infatuated with someone. 0
 
"Who is this?" Pei Yufei asked, taking the initiative. 0
 
Shen Jingyu formally responded, "This is my wife, Su Xing. You can call her sister-in-law." 0
 
Boom! Pei Yufei felt as if something inside him had collapsed. 0
 
He stared at Su Xing for a long time but still couldn't bring himself to call her sister-in-law. Su Xing, of course, didn't dwell on it. 0
 
"You two chat; I'm going inside to check!" Su Xing attempted to pull her hand away, but Shen Jingyu wouldn't allow it! 0
 
With a helpless glance at him, Su Xing thought that this was an expression she would never show to any man in her life! 0
 
In Pei Yufei's heart, Shen Jingyu would always be someone he looked up to. Little did he expect that the next scene would strike him even harder. Shen Jingyu lifted Su Xing's hand adorned with the engagement ring and gently kissed the back of it. 0
 
"Go inside and tell Mom that we got our marriage certificate today." Shen Jingyu said this deliberately. 0
 
Su Xing felt a bit helpless but nodded. Only then did he release her hand. As she passed by Pei Yufei, she gave him a nod. 0
 
Su Xing could already see the tears welling up in Pei Yufei's eyes. 0
 
Another lovesick woman! Shen Jingyu wondered just how much trouble he could attract. In the past, he never had to worry about such matters! But now, Su Xing was his wife to protect. 0
 
Inside, Su Xing accompanied Deng Xiaoya, who was sometimes lucid and sometimes unconscious. 0
 
In the corridor, Pei Yufei had already shed two lines of tears in his vulnerability. 0
 
Although Shen Jingyu felt somewhat impatient, he explained, "I told you long ago that there would only be one woman in my world. Now she is my wife. If you still consider me your captain and comrade, do not provoke her!" 0
 
While Su Xing wasn't exactly someone easy to provoke, Shen Jingyu still wanted to keep her close and protected. 0
 
Pei Yufei didn't know how to wipe away his tears. Fortunately, he had left his two guards outside earlier; otherwise, he would have lost his dignity as a major by now. 0
 
Pei Yufei adjusted his breathing and then explained to Shen Jingyu, "I came here with a mission." 0
 
Zhan Ying was now at a dead end; the next person he most likely wanted to see was Su Xing and her mother. 0
 
 
The organization sent me here to protect her! Shen Jingyu was well aware that Pei Yufei's words held another layer of meaning: to keep an eye on Su Xing. Once Zhan Ying arrived by their side, it could serve as a breakthrough for their capture. 0
 
"Stay in the shadows and don't disrupt his life too much," he had been instructed. Shen Jingyu did not refuse; after a brief exchange, he prepared to enter the hospital room. 0
 
"Can I go in and see your mother?" Pei Yufei asked, having just arrived and not yet had the chance to visit inside. 0
 
Due to the nurse's instructions outside, Shen Jingyu had been specifically told to keep an eye on things. Since they didn’t recognize Pei Yufei, they were hesitant to let him in without permission. Shen Jingyu nodded at him, and together they entered. 0
 
Deng Xiaoya was already awake. Su Xing had just shown her their marriage certificate and joked, "Your son has found himself another rival!" 0
 
"This one looks tough to deal with! They’re both from the same unit, and that female officer looks quite impressive. Just seeing her in uniform makes my heart race." 0
 
"Do you mean your son has never felt anything for her?" Su Xing continued to grumble, but Deng Xiaoya found it difficult to speak with the oxygen mask on her face. 0
 
However, when Shen Jingyu brought in a female officer, she couldn’t help but show her disdain. Su Xing caught a glimpse of Deng Xiaoya giving Pei Yufei a significant eye roll and nearly burst into laughter. 0
 
Suddenly, Su Xing remembered that Deng Xiaoya harbored some resistance towards this profession. The feeling was like a thorn lodged deep within her heart—one she could never remove! 0
 
Pei Yufei seemed utterly humiliated; with so many people around, she felt embarrassed even to cry. Holding back her feelings only added to her frustration, making it hard for her to cope. 0
 
"Miss Su, I will be staying here for the next few days. I hope we can get along well!" Pei Yufei said. 0
 
Su Xing thought, What? Is this your way of generously informing me that you’re here to compete for my man? 0
 
She glanced at the silent Shen Jingyu, who made no effort to intervene. Su Xing began to piece together some circumstances. 0
 
He explained, "I will only lead a normal life. As for whether it will affect me or not, that’s beyond my control!" 0
 
Miss Su was quite magnanimous. Pei Yufei carried herself with an air of arrogance as well. 0
 
Though she didn’t look down on Su Xing as Han Ruoxi once did, her attitude still conveyed a sense of pride and prejudice! 0
 
Having crawled through life’s hardships and encountered countless people, Su Xing felt she could handle someone like Pei Yufei without difficulty. 0
 
However, just after receiving their marriage certificate, gaining a major rival left Su Xing feeling unsettled! 0
 
Shen Jingyu and Deng Xiaoya seemed to have little to talk about during this visit; he ended up discussing matters with the attending physician for quite some time before it concluded. 0
 
Later on, Su Xing sat in the small lounge outside the ward. Pei Yufei quietly shared the space with him, and the two hardly exchanged any words. 0
 
 
The phone kept ringing, but Pei Yufei didn’t even glance at the electronic device. One had to admit, this level of composure was quite admirable! 0
 
On Su Xing’s side, however, the messages on his phone were all a bit overwhelming. 0
 
Mu Beiyao: "Wow! You can make getting a marriage certificate so high-profile! Are you trying to crash the internet all by yourself?" 0
 
Lu Xiangyi: "I need to let my Xi Gu Brother learn from this! Proposing has to have that single-knee-down vibe! And the heartfelt little essay must be unique, deep, and sincere!" 0
 
Qin Bing: "Su Xing, are the stars crying rivers for you? Are your eyes swollen? Send a selfie so we can see!" 0
 
Not only was it trending, but these few people had already watched that short video countless times! 0
 
Su Xing hadn’t even had the chance to report to his mother yet when a congratulatory message came in: "Such a big event, and you didn’t tell your old mother? For the sake of my son-in-law, I’ll forgive you this time! Find some time to come back for dinner! But since you’ve already married her, taking care of your mother-in-law is your duty now! Spending these days in the hospital is fine too!" 0
 
Su Xing had mentioned Deng Xiaoya to his mother in the past few days. He Xiaoqing had even hesitated about whether or not to come over for a visit. However, after thinking it over, he decided to put it off. But now that both families were connected as in-laws, He Xiaoqing was still considering whether she should go and take a look. 0
