After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

Chapter 497 A powerful opponent

Next, He Yi was taken into the operating room.

Thanks to the efforts of many medical staff, the surgery went smoothly and successfully. Yifei has a new kidney donor, and his bodily functions are gradually returning to normal. The doctors also brought good news: Yifei is out of danger, and his other superficial injuries can be treated slowly. Now they are just waiting for him to wake up.

Upon hearing this good news, He Yi immediately smiled with relief. He placed his right hand on his chest, where he was missing a kidney.

Although he was in good health, he still had to follow the doctor's advice and stay in bed for at least three days.

He hope came to see him and cried her heart out.

"Sis, I'm perfectly fine, you can relax now. I told you not to worry, Yifei's condition is improving too, everything will be alright," He Yi said with a relaxed and cheerful expression.

He hope couldn't be happy at all.

Her younger brother was missing a kidney, and that kidney was transplanted into her own son.

How could she not be worried?

He Yi naturally understood his sister's feelings, so he continued to persuade her. In the end, He hope couldn't hold back and turned around and rushed out of the ward.

Li Xin came in a little while later.

Li Xin was equally heartbroken, especially when she recalled a certain incident. She said, "You really don't plan to let Yifei know that you donated your kidney to him? But at least let Gu Zhiyao know. Yifei is alright now, which is great, but it also means that you will face a very powerful opponent in the future. Your happiness in this life is even gone. I understand that Yifei was in critical condition at the time and confessed to Gu Zhiyao. Gu Zhiyao also agreed to marry him as long as he survives!"

He Yi was indeed stunned by these words and stared at Li Xin.

"You think I'm talking nonsense? Wen Ya is a pervert. I don't know what she was up to, but she recorded the whole thing. See for yourself." Li Xin handed He Yi a mini video recorder.

He Yi's heart churned for a moment, then he slowly turned on the video recorder.

It was the scene where Yifei was beaten.

"The scene was more tragic than we imagined. Yifei probably thought he might not survive, so he tried to seize the last chance to tell Gu Zhiyao that he loved her. Gu Zhiyao's answer may have been meant to encourage Yifei, but once you say something, you have to keep it. Yifei, you're in grave danger!"

He Yi watched all the videos and remained silent for a long time.

"Why don't you just tell Gu Zhiyao? You don't have to tell Yifei if you don't want him to feel guilty, but you should let Gu Zhiyao know, right? Unless you want to give Gu Zhiyao to Yifei? But are you really willing to do that? Besides, she's carrying your child..."

"Perhaps, she and I are truly destined for a bad ending." He Yi suddenly uttered a soft voice, his eyes fixed on the light and shadow in front of him, a bitter smile blooming on his pale face and slightly purple lips. "For so many years, I seem to have always appeared as the villain in her life, always existing to hurt her. Every time she was in danger, it was never me who saved her. This time is no different. Is this God's arrangement?"

"Uh, what are you talking about? You're not one to give up!"

"Yes, I used to think that I could do anything and get anything I wanted, including her, so I kept clinging to her and pestering her. But it turns out I'm not really all-powerful. So, I really should let go. And don't mention this again, not to anyone, understand? Otherwise, I won't forgive you!"

With that tone and that attitude, Li Xin, having worked with He Yi for many years, naturally sensed He Yi's determination, and felt even more distressed.

In the end, he could only agree, "I understand, I won't say anything. I'll explain when you need me to help you explain."

But will that day ever really come?

As Li Xin looked at He Yi, he felt increasingly grief-stricken, so he simply fled the room as well.

When Gu Zhiyao woke up again, Xiao Lin was by her bedside.

These past few days, some unexpected things happened at the company, and Xiao Lin has been busy day and night. He only got the news this morning and rushed over. Seeing that Gu Zhiyao was still asleep, he simply dozed off in his chair for a while. Now that Gu Zhiyao has woken him up, he is still visibly exhausted.

"I'm sorry, you're so busy with work. Actually, I'm fine, you didn't need to come," Gu Zhiyao said apologetically.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I can feel at ease at home if I don't come?" Xiao Lin said immediately, and then asked about her situation.

"I'm much better now. Compared to when I first woke up, I'm noticeably better," Gu Zhiyao said truthfully.

"That's good." Xiao Lin pondered for a moment and said, "By the way, He Yi has encountered some urgent matters. I heard from Li Xin that he will be away for three or four days."

Gu Zhiyao was taken aback, but didn't think much of it and asked about Yifei.

"He has completed the surgery. I heard that his kidney was originally necrotic, but fortunately a matching kidney donor was found in time, and he was able to have a kidney transplant. Now he is out of danger, and with continued treatment, he should be fine."

"Really?" Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but feel happy and excited.

"Yes, so you need to take good care of yourself too. Yifei has multiple injuries and will need to receive treatment in the hospital for a period of time. Once you're better, you can take care of him."

"Okay, I won't let myself collapse, and I'll get better as soon as possible!"

"Hmm." Xiao Lin smiled with relief.

Over the next two days, Gu Zhiyao worked very hard and actively cooperated with the doctor's treatment, and her physical condition improved rapidly, even surprising the doctor.

That day, Xiao Lin finally brought Chenchen and Niu Niu with him.

Niu Niu is a girl after all. When she saw her mother whom she hadn't seen for many days, she probably knew what had happened to her mother and burst into tears.

Gu Zhiyao was also filled with emotion; she had thought she would never have the chance to see her daughter again.

She hugged Niu Niu tightly, then pulled Chen Chen over as well, and said, choking back tears, "I'm sorry, Mom made you worry!"

"It's okay, Mom, don't think like that. I will definitely not let those bad people get away with it!" Niu Niu said angrily while crying.

Chenchen suddenly took Gu Zhiyao's hand and held it in his palm, tightening his grip little by little.

One day later, Yifei finally woke up!

Now that Gu Zhiyao was able to get out of bed, she immediately came to Yifei's ward upon hearing the news.

When they looked at each other, they all felt as if they had been separated by a lifetime. Then, tears streamed down Gu Zhiyao's face as she grabbed Yifei's hand tightly.

Yifei's eyes were filled with deep affection and tenderness, and his lips trembled incessantly.

"Yifei, what do you want to tell me? Don't rush, take your time," Gu Zhiyao said gently. "Or you can tell me when you're better."

Yifei continued to stare at her intently, his lips still trying to open, and then a whispered voice drifted into Gu Zhiyao's ears.

"Zhiyao, I love you!"

Gu Zhiyao heard me clearly!

He froze instantly.
