Chapter 76: Who Cares If It’s Reasonable, Saving Lives Is What Matters Most!
The two pieces of intelligence refreshed today were both related to saving people.
This situation was truly unexpected for Jiang Tao.
Especially upon seeing the content of the first piece of intelligence regarding Grandpa Sun.
Jiang Tao didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Why was Grandpa Sun suppressed again?
Is he the reincarnation of the Monkey King!
Complaining aside, Jiang Tao quickly grabbed his clothes and put them on.
Alright, the Help Group needs to mobilize again!
Regardless of the reason, saving people is the priority.
He quickly got dressed, grabbed his phone charger and mobile phone, and a small bag he always carried.
Jiang Tao rushed downstairs and checked out at the front desk, under the puzzled gaze of the young woman.
It takes about an hour to get from Hanting Hotel back to Bai Ge Zhuang.
After saving Grandpa Sun, Jiang Tao was too tired to drive back for an hour to sleep; it wasn’t worth the trouble.
There are hotels near Bai Ge Zhuang, so he could just book another room.
Now that he possessed hundreds of thousands in gold and over a hundred thousand in deposits, he felt much more confident than before.
He really didn’t care about the room fee for booking a hotel anymore.
Moreover, the reward of 30,000 in alcoholic drinks and over 30,000 in tea mentioned in System Brother’s intelligence was more appealing than that room fee!
Leaving the hotel, Jiang Tao drove his old Audi towards Bai Ge Zhuang.
It was late at night, and even in a big city like the Capital City, there were few cars on the streets, so the drive was smooth and unimpeded.
While driving to rescue the Monkey King.
Jiang Tao’s mind was also pondering the second piece of intelligence regarding Du Ennan.
As someone who had been a father.
Jiang Tao knew how significant the impact of three and a half turns of the umbilical cord around the neck could be on a fetus.
The umbilical cord is a vital channel for the fetus to exchange gases and receive nutrients from the mother.
When the umbilical cord is tightly wrapped around the neck, it can affect the fetus’s oxygen supply and carbon dioxide removal, leading to fetal hypoxia.
In severe cases, it can affect the fetus’s normal development, cause premature rupture of membranes, and consequently lead to premature birth.
The most severe outcome, as mentioned by System Brother in the intelligence, is death during infancy!
Saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda.
Even without the reward mentioned by System Brother, Jiang Tao would have informed Du Ennan of this piece of intelligence.
Not to mention the generous reward.
Although he couldn’t figure out where a mall manager got so much money.
But these were clearly not things Jiang Tao needed to consider; there was no reward for figuring them out, so why strain his brain?
“It’s just, how should I tell her…”
“I’m neither a miracle doctor from a novel nor a charlatan.”
“I can’t just tell her directly that I divined there’s a problem with the child in your womb, right?”
“I’d be cursed to death, and they’d say my brain is the one with the problem.”
Jiang Tao’s brain was racing, but he couldn’t come up with a good way to warn Du Ennan.
Moreover, it was already past midnight, very late.
If he called her at this time…
“Forget it! Why think so much, the intelligence System Brother mentioned must be reliable.”
“Since it said Du Ennan’s child has a problem, then the child must have a problem.”
“Even if I’m misunderstood and called crazy, I must notify her as soon as possible!”
“Whether she believes it or not is her business.”
After driving for about four to five kilometers, Jiang Tao still hadn’t thought of a reasonable and logical way to convey the information to Du Ennan.
So, he decided not to overthink it and hesitate.
He chose to confront Du Ennan directly.
Regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, the child’s health and safety were paramount.
In Jiang Tao’s opinion, the task of saving Du Ennan’s fetus was even more urgent than rescuing Old Sun.
After all, Old Sun was merely trapped by a floor slab.
Du Ennan’s fetus was being strangled.
No sooner thought than done, Jiang Tao found an open stretch of road, pulled over, and parked.
He reached into his pocket, pulled out his mobile phone, found Du Ennan’s number she had left him during the day, and dialed it.
…
In the Capital City, Chaoyang District, within the Maoyuan Jingxi Villa Area, in a three-story luxuriously decorated detached villa.
Du Ennan was half-reclining on an orange single sofa in the bedroom, bathed in the warm orange light.
The expression on her face was even gentler than the warm yellow light in the room.
Normally, Du Ennan would have been asleep by this time.
But tonight, the little one in her belly was a bit too active.
One moment it punched her, the next it kicked her.
Du Ennan’s belly was bulging, as if the Monkey King was crawling inside.
This had happened before, and at first, Du Ennan was very nervous, often driving to the hospital in the middle of the night.
After a while, with more experience, she stopped worrying about it.
Ordinary pregnant women typically only needed to go to the hospital for check-ups once a month.
Only in the month of delivery would the frequency increase to once every half month, and then once a week in the latter half of the month.
Du Ennan was extremely attentive to her baby.
She was only over seven months pregnant and went for a prenatal check-up every week.
She had just had a prenatal check-up yesterday, and everything was normal.
Therefore, tonight, she wasn’t too concerned about the fetus being slightly more active than usual, and was even quietly talking to the baby.
“The baby’s father is a very capable designer; he hosted the design of six subway lines in the Capital City.”
“The Line 10 subway Mama took you to was Daddy’s debut project; he loves to take the subway and travel around whenever he has free time…”
As she spoke, tears welled up in Du Ennan’s eyes.
Her husband had died in a car accident when she was five months pregnant.
The child in her womb had lost its father before it was even born.
Thinking about this made her feel her child was so pitiful, and she would often shed tears in secret.
Buzz buzz buzz—
The sound of a mobile phone vibrating in the distance interrupted Du Ennan’s thoughts.
She wiped the tears from her eyes, frowned, and looked towards the dressing table about three meters away from the sofa.
The mobile phone on the dressing table was lighting up and vibrating with a buzzing sound.
Du Ennan raised her hand and glanced at the health monitoring wristwatch she was wearing.
It was already 00:29 AM.
She was naturally extremely annoyed that someone would call her so late.
So, she didn’t bother to get up and answer the call.
However…
The person calling was more annoying than she had imagined.
She didn’t answer, but they kept calling, and calling, incessantly!
By the time the caller reached the sixth attempt.
Du Ennan’s face turned frosty as she stood up from the sofa and huffily walked over to the dressing table.
Buzz buzz buzz—
The mobile phone was still vibrating. Seeing the characters “Jiang Tao” displayed on the screen.
Du Ennan’s previous good impression of him vanished instantly, and anger welled up in her heart.
This guy knew she was pregnant but still called her at this hour.
He had no sense of boundaries at all!
Du Ennan truly regretted giving Jiang Tao her private number.
Buzz buzz buzz—
Seeing the phone still ringing incessantly, Du Ennan took a deep breath, picked up her mobile phone, and answered the call.
“Mr. Jiang, do you know what time it is?”
As soon as she connected the call, Du Ennan questioned Jiang Tao with annoyance.
However…
When she heard Jiang Tao’s voice on the other end of the line and what he was saying.
Du Ennan’s complexion changed from red to green to white.
The fingers holding the mobile phone clenched tighter and tighter, her knuckles turning white.
After ending the call, Du Ennan hesitated for only three seconds before turning and rushing to the walk-in closet to change and head out.
