After a couple of hours, the doctor came out of Xu Mey's room with a sullen look on his face.

"What's her condition?" Zhu Chen was the first one to inquire since Xu Cheng had long lost the energy to even stand. But his attention was still towards the doctor and Zhu Chen.

"For now, both mother and child are safe." Zhu Chen knew that wasn't the end of it. He could read the doctor's face clearly.

"But?" He found the courage to urge him.

"The patient is still unconscious. And it's hard to tell when she'll wake up." He Susu who had been quietly bawling her eyes out all this time finally reacted.

"But if she stayed unconscious for a long time, she can fall into a coma. It will endanger her life and the baby's." The doctor nodded agreeing with her statement.

"Yes, you are indeed right. You all should pray that she wakes up." Saying that the doctor left them while Xu Mey was transferred in a private room.

Looking at her condition, Xu Cheng couldn't hold back his tears and burst out. Fan Bingbing tried her best to console him but she had no control over her own tears.

"Why?" Xu Cheng's words choked up. "Why does my baby girl have to go through this? She had been through enough. Didn't she? Why must she give this trial as well?"

"Brother, have faith in our little Mey. She's strong. She'll fight for sure." Fan Bingbing was saying these words to assure both herself and Xu Cheng. "She was so happy in the past few days. I wonder whose evil eyes fell on her."

"I want to know who did this!" Xu Cheng's voice was hoarse but his eyes were blazing with fire. Someone dared to touch his daughter, how could he just let it go.

Xu Cheng saw Xiamu entering the room. He had been gone to rest for a while after giving his blood. "Did you see who did this?" Xu Cheng's sudden question made Xiamu halt in his steps.

He bit his lips and answered, "I was across the road, so I couldn't see the face of the driver." He was feeling guilty about that. If only he had been by their side, he could have at the very least pushed them aside on time.

"What about the license plate number?" This question came from Li Qiao.

"Bro, I already gave the number to Jian." Xiamu had informed He Jian about the number right after getting to the hospital. He knew He Jian could look for the car.

"Jian, did you find anything?" Wu Wang immediately questioned He Jian who walked inside.

"It was a stolen car." He Jian answered with a heavy feeling in his heart.

"What about the surveillance cameras?" Li Qiao asked.

He Jian shook his head saying, "Nothing noteworthy. The car entered the alleyways in the suburbs. There were no surveillance cameras there. So, we couldn't track it from there."

"Damnit!" Both He Jian and Li Qiao were agitated. Everyone else in the room wasn't any better. It was the only way to find the culprit and now, there seemed to be no hope. No! They had to look for a way.

"Anyway, thank you so much Xiamu. If it wasn't for you... We can't even imagine what could have happened." Wu Wang was the first to thank Xiamu.

"Yes, it really is all thanks to you." With everyone thanking him so distantly, Xiamu felt a strange pain rising inside him. It was gnawing at his heart.

Slowly everyone left Xu Mey's room to give her some peace to rest. Only Xiamu didn't follow them and oddly, no one was in the condition to notice as well.

Xiamu sat beside her bed and held her hand in his own. "Sis..." he called out softly as if afraid to disturb her. "Please wake up. Otherwise, I won't be able to forgive myself. If only I had been by your side..." His words broke as he felt his tears trickling down his face.

With much effort, he wiped his face and started again, "You have to be alright for your husband. I must say, he really loves you a lot." Xiamu was looking at her face with a small smile on his lips as he went on, "He didn't even think before pushing you out of the way and became your shield. Seeing the way he tried to save you, I must say it's no wonder someone is envious of you both."

"I'm sure Jie is fighting with all his willpower to get back to you. You should do it as well. Don't let him down. Find your way back to him. He needs you by his side as he stood by yours all this time." He gently squeezed Xu Mey's hand and sighed before turning to leave.

Jie's surgery went longer than expected. After six long hours, when Lin Shen walked out of the OR everyone's eyes were looking at him expectantly.

"The surgery was successful." That's all he said to ease their knotted nerves. "Let's wait for him to wake up now." Since Jie's injuries were serious, Lin Shen didn't want to say anything unnecessary. Everyone was sensible enough to figure out that they could only know his condition after he wakes up.

But waking up was also a challenge to overcome. Although brain injury was the most serious one because of the fall, they still couldn't ignore the fact that Jie had broken a few bones along with some minor injuries.

However, this was a challenge that both of them had to overcome. Both Xu Mey and Jie had to fight and had to find their way back to each other.
