He didn't know, because Chi Yan had already sent a few of the Branch Lords to join Pei Chenjun one by one. With those few traitors, it would be impossible for Xiu Yilun to take over the fire.
Pei Chenjun told Cheng Yajing of the good news, that he was currently in his room sending a WeChat message to his beloved woman.
"Wife, I've already taken down three of ChiYan's branches. Do you think I'm powerful?"
"Take care of your own safety."
In truth, she didn't care about how the battle between Chi Yan and the fire was progressing. She only wanted her man to be safe and sound, and if Pei Chenjun really left her, then she would also go with him.
Pei Chenjun felt that WeChat chatting was not fun at all, as he had traveled a long distance internationally.
"Wife, did you miss me?"
Pei Chenjun's somewhat spoiled and coquettish voice came from the other side of the phone, making him feel somewhat helpless and happy.
She embarrassedly replied, "Yes."
That voice was so faint that even Pei Chenjun could not make it out.
He opened his mouth angrily, "I just want to, why are you saying things so lightly, could it be that you're still shy with me?"
Cheng Yajing then shouted out loudly, "Want to..."
This time, her voice was extremely loud, causing Pei Chenjun, who heard her voice on the phone, to laugh.
Ever since she came to America, she had been visiting Bai Zhixin almost every single day. The doctor said that Bai Zhixin might wake up within a year, and if she was unable to wake up within that year, then she would never be able to wake up again.
When the doctor came to this conclusion, the members of the Bai Clan became sorrowful for a long time.
When Cheng Yajing arrived at the hospital, the first thing she saw when she saw Lin Jie holding Bai Zhixin's hand sorrowfully was the care and care a mother had for her child. Zhixin, you have to hurry and get better.
She slowly walked to Lin Jie's side and comforted her by patting her shoulder, "Mom, don't be sad."
Then, she looked at Bai Zhixin's pale face, feeling a little lost. "Zhixin, we all miss you a lot, can you wake up quickly?"
Lin Jie could no longer hold back her tears. Originally, she still had a lifetime worth of hope, but after hearing the American doctor's words, she no longer had any hope. It was even possible that her Zhixin would never wake up again.
As long as she thought of this possibility, she would feel very sad.
Seeing his mother cry, Cheng Yajing had no other choice but to console her. "Mom, if Zhixin sees you cry, she'll definitely be sad as well. Don't cry anymore."
Lin Jie dried her tears, she covered her own head, after a few minutes of silence, she reorganized her thoughts, she should not be sentimental, she should cherish the people in front of her.
If Zhixin couldn't wake up, she only had Ya Jing as her daughter. She must treat Ya Jing well.
"Ya Jing, let's go out and let your sister rest." Then, Lin Jie pulled Cheng Yajing outside. She seemed to have something to say, but it was hard to say.
After a while, Lin Jie then stammered, "Ya Jing, your father and I have discussed this with each other. There are only two daughters in our family, you and Zhi Xin.
Cheng Yajing had never thought that Lin Jie would ask this question, and she was unable to react for a moment.
Afraid that the Bai Family would break down, Cheng Yajing was in a difficult situation, and did not know how to answer. She could only temporarily ignore this question, "Mom, I'm not pregnant, why are you in such a hurry?"
She didn't know if Pei Chenjun would agree to it, furthermore, this wasn't the time to talk about children.
And she wondered why she could never get pregnant. Was there really something wrong with her?
Seeing that Cheng Yajing was changing the topic, Lin Jie also felt that it was too early to say anything, so she could only laugh, "Un, let's talk about it after you're pregnant. But about this problem, Ya Jing, think about it, this was something that I discussed with your father and grandfather, I …"
She didn't want to talk about this issue with Lin Jie, but she, as the eldest granddaughter of the Bai Family, should have already considered this issue. Furthermore, Bai Zhixin was already a vegetable, so waking up or not would already be a problem.
Therefore, the matter of the successor had fallen onto her shoulders.
Actually, the people from the Bai Clan only wanted someone to inherit the Joss Flame. Although Lin Jie did not necessarily agree to it, Lin Jie still felt that she had to ask.
Looking at Cheng Yajing's figure that was gradually moving further away, Lin Jie bitterly smiled.
After returning to her room, Cheng Yajing had been thinking about Lin Jie's words the entire time. She touched her stomach and couldn't help but sigh;
Even after so long, there was still no movement from his stomach.
She didn't know if she should talk to her mother or if she really had a physical problem.
He couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he tried. After all that time, she and Pei Chenjun had never used any kind of contraception, so if they could get pregnant, they would probably be pregnant already. How could they not be able to sleep for so long?
She had to see her own body, and she had to find her mother.
Thus, early in the morning, Cheng Yajing went to Lin Jie's room.
Lin Jie yawned as she opened the door, "Yating, why are you here so early in the morning?"
Since Lin Jie mentioned it yesterday, she wouldn't be able to fall asleep no matter what. She could only open her mouth in a hurry, "Mom, hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face, I have a very important matter that requires you to accompany me."
"Something very important?" Lin Jie was a little suspicious, but before she could react, Cheng Yajing had already pushed her half the way into the bathroom.
When Lin Jie was dressed and had put on makeup, she went into Cheng Yajing's room.
Lin Jie felt that it was very strange, she frowned, "Yating, what is going on?"
Cheng Yajing's face was pale white, as though she was feeling uncomfortable. Lin Jie really thought that she was sick, and probed her head: "There's no fever, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with it? "
Cheng Yajing shook his head, "Mom, didn't you tell me about the child yesterday? I'm a bit worried. "
"What are you worried about?" Lin Jie became even more doubtful.
"I'm afraid I can't have children." Cheng Yajing mustered up her courage to say this. She was really scared, and didn't use any contraception.
Lin Jie laughed, "What do you mean by not worrying? You and Chen Jun are still young, and getting pregnant isn't an easy task. "
