Stars In His Eyes-Chapter 1780: Their Happy Times 12

"Jinshi, Jinshi, I’m sorry, I almost lost you." Ding Long pressed his hand against the glass window, quietly watching the little woman inside. Last night’s heart-stopping moments, although he didn’t witness them, he only heard a few phrases, but he understood—he truly understood just how scared, how much she suffered, and the enormous grievance she endured because of him.

He almost lost her again, almost lost their child.

"Jinshi, no matter where I go in the future, I will never be apart from you again. I won’t go anywhere—I’ll stay by your side for a lifetime, to protect you." Ding Long secretly vowed, no job, no business was more important than Ding Jinshi.

When Ding’s father arrived, having arranged matters at home and in the office, he saw Ding Long standing outside of Ding Jinshi’s hospital room, guarding her. He walked over, stood next to Ding Long, and said, "I have thrown your parents into the station. This time, I won’t let them off so easily. Ding Long, you haven’t been home, have you? You haven’t seen Jinshi covered in blood, have you? That’s my daughter, my treasured Baobei, lying in the car covered in blood. Do you know how suffocating that scene was?"

"Dad, I’m sorry. I didn’t protect her well." Ding Long choked a little.

"Yes, you let me down, but more importantly, you let her down, and you let your two sons down!" Ding’s father roared, "If I had known this would happen, I would never have let my daughter marry you in the first place! Anyway, I could have supported her; she’d be better off unmarried for life than suffering this for your sake! If we had sent her any later, not even the doctor could have saved her!"

Xima said that Ding Long’s mother’s kick landed right in Ding Jinshi’s stomach, and unable to avoid it, Ding Jinshi hit the coffee table and fell to the ground.

He went and saw the living room in disarray, with his daughter’s dried blood still on the floor, enough to make his heart pound with fear.

Ding Jinshi only woke up that afternoon, and the first person she saw was Ding Long.

She wondered if it was an illusion. Though it had only been one night, Ding Long seemed to have aged a lot. The stubble emerging on his chin made him look somewhat amusing.

"The children?" The first thing Ding Jinshi asked was about the children.

"The children are fine, they’re a pair of brothers, still under observation in the incubator. The doctor said they are relatively healthy and should be with us in about three days." Ding Long replied, but as he spoke, his throat felt like it was on fire, his voice extremely hoarse. He hadn’t had a drop to drink since he returned.

"I’ve issued a statement that should be published tomorrow, severing ties with my parents. However, regardless of how the court sentences them, after their release, I will continue to provide for them financially, but from now on, we have no other relationship."

Ding Long tenderly caressed Ding Jinshi’s face, almost not daring to apply too much force, afraid she might shatter at a mere touch.

"Your parents..." Ding Jinshi couldn’t bring herself to speak up for her so-called in-laws, so she stopped after saying three words.

"Gone, Jinshi, gone with the wind. In this world, it’s just you and the children for me." Ding Long could never forgive his parents for the harm they did to Ding Jinshi.

It was like this in the past life, this life, even more excessive.

How could he not resent them?
