Chapter 556: Chapter 556 Temporary Escape from Danger

"Uncle Tong, getting the certificate can be done anytime, but what’s more important right now is Auntie Tong’s condition," Li Zijue strode over.

Upon hearing Li Zijue speak up, Tong Aiguo didn’t dare say much, apologizing profusely, "The Viscount is right, absolutely right."

Wanting to show that they were already family, Tong Aiguo called him with endearing familiarity.

Li Zijue ignored him and extended his hand to the girl kneeling on the ground, "Get up quickly; isn’t the floor cold?"

As he spoke, he tenderly helped the girl to her feet.

He then held her, silently comforting her frightened heart.

"No matter what happens to your mother, I will always be by your side."

Tong Mo immediately cried even harder, her small hands clutching onto his suit tightly as tears fell onto his shirt through her cheeks.

Mom...

You must pull through...

Your daughter has found a truly wonderful man; you mustn’t miss seeing this...

"Sis, don’t be sad; your mom is definitely going to be alright," Tong Nian held back her inner jealousy to comfort her.

If Li Zijue weren’t present, she wouldn’t bother to hide her mockery, let alone offer comfort.

Engulfed in her own sorrow, Tong Mo had no mind to pay attention to her.

Seeing Tong Mo ignore her, Tong Nian wasn’t upset, as she hadn’t intended to chat with her anyway. She turned her head to speak to Li Zijue, "Brother-in-law, you must comfort my sister well."

Her voice was soft as she spoke, and if Li Zijue didn’t thoroughly understand how vicious the woman in front of him was, he might have been deceived by her innocent appearance.

"Hmm."

After responding briefly, he didn’t look at her again.

But Tong Nian wouldn’t let go of this opportunity to get close to Li Zijue and was racking her brains for topics to engage him in conversation.

Yet, Li Zijue was not just anyone; with a few words, he made her lose face and no longer have the audacity to linger for attention.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that her seduction had no effect, Tong Nian was furious, and in her heart, she constantly cursed Tong Mo’s mother, wishing she would just die.

Liu Zhi hurriedly comforted her in a soft voice, "Keep calm, they are loving now, but who knows what the future holds."

"Moreover, Tong Mo’s lowlife mother is currently between life and death. If she dies, then they probably won’t be able to get their marriage certificate for the time being." Liu Zhi knew very well that if Tong Mo’s mother died, Tong Mo would, out of filial piety, need to observe mourning for a few years.

"Mom’s right," Tong Nian felt reassured.

About half an hour later, the door of the operation room finally opened.

The doctor in a white coat also immediately walked out.

Eager to appear as a good father in front of Li Zijue, Tong Aiguo instantly rushed forward, grasping the doctor’s hand anxiously, "Doctor, how is my ex-wife now?"

"She has temporarily escaped danger," the doctor said.

As his words fell, Tong Mo breathed a sigh of relief, hugging Li Zijue tightly with joy and tears, "Did you hear that? The doctor said my mom is temporarily out of danger!"

"I heard," Li Zijue nodded slowly, lifting his slightly rough fingertips to wipe the tears from her face, "Auntie Tong has her own good fortune; how could anything happen to her? But you—crying like a little tabby cat."

His tone was full of compassion, which only reinforced Tong Nian’s determination to usurp him.

A man as rich, attractive, and affectionate as him could only belong to her, Tong Nian!
