Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28: Chapter 28 You Are Not Human

As soon as Cheng Su signed, the nurse took the consent form and left. It was only after the door to the delivery room slammed shut again that everyone reacted, staring at Cheng Su as if they had seen a ghost.

"You, what right do you have to sign? Daughter, come back, we must save the baby," Mother Zhang was the first to jump up, pounding on the door of the delivery room with her hands.

Cheng Su pulled her away and growled lowly, "Shut your mouth, they are performing surgery inside, what are you making such a racket for?"

"What are you to wave your hands and give orders in front of me, who the hell are you, who gave you the gall to make decisions for our Zhang family!" Mother Zhang was so angry that she trembled all over.

"I’m not a thing, I’m Qi Taiguo’s wife, your daughter-in-law’s sister-in-law, what about that? You’re not so old that you’ve gone blind, you just came to my wedding banquet last month!" Cheng Su glared fiercely and coldly glanced at Zhang Jisheng, who was standing there like a fool, then said, "And you, have you forgotten too? Shall I call Qi Taiguo to ask if I’m not his wife?"

The mention of Qi Taiguo made Zhang Jisheng shudder and, holding his mother who was about to curse out loud, he said, "Mom, let it go."

"Let what go? She’s signed now, where does she get the qualification to sign?" Mother Zhang shouted back, looking at Cheng Su and saying, "Even if you’re a sister-in-law, by what right do you sign for us?"

"You are not human, you want to watch my elder sister and the child go to their deaths with your eyes wide open, am I not human either?" Cheng Su scoffed coldly.

"You, who are you cursing!"

"Whoever isn’t human, that’s who I’m cursing," Cheng Su replied with her arms folded.

"Mom, let it go, let’s just leave it," Zhang Jisheng, pulling at his mother who was about to start cursing, tried to soothe her.

"Leave what? Fine, fine. The Qi family has plenty of people and capability, so you all can deal with whether she lives or dies. Jisheng, we’re leaving!" With that, Mother Zhang hurriedly pulled Zhang Jisheng and said, "Let’s go back and get the household register. If my grandson is gone, you divorce her immediately!"

Cheng Su was shocked. She had seen bad and very bad before, but she had never seen someone this awful; it was truly extraordinarily bad!

"Zhang Jisheng, when you were kneeling on the ground begging me and your father-in-law to marry Sister Feng to you, is this how you treat her? She’s still in there, her life hanging by a thread, and you’re talking about divorce? Are you still human!" Mother Qi was also completely shocked.

"Zhang Jisheng, you dare!" Father Qi trembled with anger.

"Marrying Sister Feng to you was truly a mistake," Qi Fengping clenched her fists and said coldly, "If my elder brother comes back, he’ll surely beat to death scum like you!"

Zhang Jisheng and Mother Zhang both shuddered.

"I’ve said it long ago, if it comes to saving the eldest, then forget it, divorce, you brought this upon yourselves!" Mother Zhang stubbornly said, "After all these years, Yayun is already ten, and she’s only just gotten pregnant with a boy, something she finally managed to do. If it weren’t for Jisheng’s protection, she should have been divorced a long time ago!"

"If the grandson is gone, we can have another, but if the adult dies, how can you have another?" Cheng Su was furious at how ignorant some people could be.

"The grandson is a seed of our Old Zhang’s family, women can be found anywhere," Mother Zhang muttered under her breath.

"Mom..." Zhang Jisheng tugged at her, saying, "It’s already signed, let’s just wait a bit longer, maybe everything will turn out fine!"

"You can wait if you want, I certainly won’t," replied Mother Zhang, shaking off his hand and striding away.

Zhang Jisheng chased after her, not caring whether his wife was on the brink of death inside the delivery room!

"This is a sin, such regret, truly regretful, we should never have married Sister Feng into the Zhang family," Mother Qi wailed, beating her chest.

How could Mother Qi agree to that? That was flesh from her own body. This issue caused quite the uproar, resulting in the Zhang family laying down an ultimatum—if they prioritized the mother, the family would wash their hands of it and consider divorce.

They were complaining about the excessive expense!

Hence, Mother Qi and the others were so infuriated. Even Cheng Su was angry. Was this even human behavior?

"Don’t know if your elder sister can pull through. If she... if anything happens, call Taiguo; they think our Qi family has no one to stand for us," Mother Qi, her eyes red with anger, instructed Cheng Su furiously.

Taiguo, the eldest son of the Qi family, was expected to bring his presence home as support; after all, as a military man imbued with a formidable aura, even evil spirits would stay clear of him, and it would also shake the Zhang family into consideration.

"Let’s wait and see, Taiguo is in the military, he can’t just come back whenever he wants!" Father Qi said gravely, wanting a cigarette but remembering they were in a hospital.

Cheng Su’s temper flared, cursing the ignorance and outrageousness. If she hadn’t hurried over, would the consent form have remained unsigned, leading to Qi Fenglian dying along with her child?

She shuddered at the thought.

She had heard such news stories before and often felt they were just news, but now it was happening right in front of her, it chilled her to the core.

The one who left her the coldest was Zhang Jisheng, Qi Fenglian’s husband, that weak, irresponsible man. His wife was on the brink of life and death indoors, and here he was siding with his mother, agreeing not to sign.

Now, with his mother throwing a tantrum and threatening to leave, was he really ignoring his wife’s struggle in the delivery room, instead of staying here to follow his mother out?

"Damn it all!" Cheng Su cursed as she watched in the direction of Zhang Jisheng and his family’s departure.
