After Jiang Feifei pushed Jiang Ziyu down, causing her wound to reopen for the second time, Di Mingjue carried her back to the ward. He then ordered Shen Lin to investigate the recent situation of the Jiang Corporation.
Upon learning that the Jiang Corporation's projects had been suspended due to insufficient funding, and that the company was essentially an empty shell with its ongoing projects lacking funds for maintenance, Di Mingjue proactively approached Jiang Wenbin. While it appeared to be a negotiation, his true intention was to accelerate the Jiang Corporation's collapse.
With the cooperation contract placed before him, Di Mingjue took it and signed his name.
After Shen Lin departed, Di Mingjue turned back to the ward.
His eyes brightened as he looked at the empty bed and then scanned the surroundings.
Leaning against the bathroom wall, Jiang Ziyu observed his every move, a question forming in her mind.
Could his eyesight be restored?
Her suspicion was confirmed when Di Mingjue walked towards her.
"Didn't I tell you to rest properly in bed? Your eagerness to get out of bed and move around makes it hard not to suspect your actions," Di Mingjue stopped in front of Jiang Ziyu.
Seeing his outstretched hand, Jiang Ziyu shifted to her right, trying to evade him. Di Mingjue's hand seemed to have a radar installed on her; no matter which way she moved, his hand could accurately locate her.
"You can see me?" Jiang Ziyu pressed, her voice firm with certainty.
His outstretched hand closed into a fist in mid-air, and Di Mingjue lowered his arm. "Yes."
He let out a soft hum.
He could see?
Jiang Ziyu excitedly sat up from the bed, half-kneeling on it. "When did it start?"
"A couple of days ago." Di Mingjue pondered, "In this current condition, how many days would it take for the acupuncture to fully restore my vision?"
Jiang Ziyu couldn't determine the exact extent of his visual recovery, but based on the current situation, a few more acupuncture sessions would likely allow him to see completely within a week.
Jiang Ziyu made a rough estimate and waved her hand in front of his eyes.
"Stop waving it, I can see," Di Mingjue caught Jiang Ziyu's hand.
Her fingers were held, and Jiang Ziyu watched as Di Mingjue's grip tightened from holding two fingers to encompassing her entire hand. She stared at him dazedly, unsure of what to do as Di Mingjue, who was nearing her, continued to approach.
Their foreheads bumped, and Di Mingjue spoke in a reprimanding tone, "Don't you believe me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ziyu quickly withdrew her hand. She cleared her throat and retorted, "I just wanted to confirm how much you could see. You've even brought trust into this."
She muttered the last sentence in a low voice.
"I can hear you," Di Mingjue reminded her.
Jiang Ziyu rolled her eyes and relaxed, sitting cross-legged on the bed. "Let's discuss something."
Hearing her calm tone, Di Mingjue pulled over a stool, bent down, and sat.
"Your wound has healed quite well, and you can go home to recuperate. I can see Qianqian and provide you with targeted acupuncture treatments. If we stay in the hospital, we won't be able to do anything," Jiang Ziyu said with a serious expression.
This was only part of it; in the hospital, Di Mingjue guarded her like a prisoner, preventing her from contacting Mu Liangchen. XXS1
That day, he had come to the hospital, but due to Jiang Feifei's interference, they hadn't managed to speak much.
"Alright," Di Mingjue agreed, uncharacteristically.
The discharge procedures were completed quickly. Two hours after their conversation ended, Jiang Ziyu moved from the hospital room to the Di residence.
Forced to sit on the sofa, she found herself surrounded by the Old Madam and Yuze.
"Good child, you've suffered," the Old Madam removed a bracelet from her wrist and casually placed it onto Jiang Ziyu's.
Feeling the weight of the jade bracelet, Jiang Ziyu was so overwhelmed that she tried to take it off her wrist.
The Old Madam held her hand and explained, "This is a family heirloom of the Di residence, specifically for the daughter-in-law. The bracelets are a pair; the other one is with Mingjue's mother. This one is for you. I hope you can live together in eternal happiness."
"This..." Jiang Ziyu looked back at Di Mingjue.
They had only a one-year agreement; after that year, she would leave the Di residence. She felt she couldn't possibly accept such a significant item.
