"She is dead," the doctor blurted out and Jin Liwei looked at him expressionlessly as if he hadn't heard what he had just said. With this, the doctor continued to explain," We are really sorry, the moment we started working on her, her heart stopped - " Before he could go any further, Jin Liwei grabbed the doctor's collar and gazed at him coldly before saying," I don't need to know. I want her back, I want my wife back." The doctor was finding it hard to breathe. No one would dare to save him from this cold man. He was only a doctor, not God. "Please Master- "
"Jin Liwei !!" a certain voice interrupted them both and he released him then the doctor took several steps maintaining himself at a distance and released a sigh of relief. They were Jin Shan's parents that had arrived. "Where's my daughter? How is my Shan?" asked the woman sobbing. Jin Liwei didn't know what to say because he himself wasn't understanding anything.
The doctor decided to break the news to them," We are sorry. We couldn't save her." The moment the news fell in the woman's ears, she fainted that instant.
They hurriedly attended to her and took her to the hospital room. Jin Shan's father glared at Jin Liwei. He always thought that this man as wealthy and powerful as he was, he was no match for their daughter because his parents always thought that she was not good enough for their son and today, he understood why he always thought that. This was so because Jin Shan came from a humble family background but she had insisted that they were in love and he could just let them be. They had just spent two years in marriage and here they were, their daughter was no more. He returned his attention to the doctor and asked," How is the baby?"
The doctor looked everywhere but him before he said," She also couldn't survive. The accident was so terrible." Cheng Lin couldn't believe what he was hearing. His daughter and granddaughter had died just like that. He looked at Jin Liwei with pure distaste and left to be with his wife.

Two days later...
Opening her eyes, Li Fei creased her brows as her eyes were trying to adjust to the light that penetrated them. She looked up the ceiling before her eyes scanned the entire room and she caught sight of her mother who was taking a nap by the couch. What was she doing in the hospital? She tried to remember what could have happened and her eyes widened in realisation when she remembered. Yes, they were involved in an accident.
She knocked someone, a pregnant woman. How was she? She tried sitting on the bed and when she did, she removed the nasal cannula and attempted to leave the bed to where her mother was sleeping but she realized that her one hand was bound onto something. On looking, she was shocked to see that they were handcuffs. Oh my God! She couldn't believe it. She was a criminal. Her eyes welled up and she called her mother who came running the moment she saw that she was awake. Hugging her tightly, she sobbed saying," My FeiFei. How are you?"
Li Fei looked at her mother and said," I'm fine mother. When did you come to Shanghai?" "As soon as we got to know what happened. You got involved in an accident," her mother whispered. Li Fei looked at the handcuffs and asked," What happened to her? The woman I knocked?"
Sighing, she decided to lie and said," She is not well. But don't worry, your father is contacting the best lawyers. We will get you out of this." Li Fei didn't know how true her statement was. Just then, the door opened and in came Hu Feng "Li Fei, you're awake? How are you feeling?" he asked as he quickly approached her.
"Keep your voice low, they will take her away when they discover that she's awake," said Li Mei implying to the policemen standing outside the door. He hugged her before saying," Look at what you brought upon yourself Li Fei. Always so defiant, always doing as you please. Now Jin Liwei's wife is dead and all lawyers don't want to get involved in the case. What are we going to do now?" On hearing that, Li Fei began trembling and she stuttered," S-she is d-dead?" She had killed a person, she was a murderer. Tears rolled down staining her cheeks. Was this the price of being stubborn and defiant? Always not listening to her parents.
Just then, the door was opened and the doctor entered. He checked her up and asked for any discomfort where none existed. After that, he excused himself to go but Li Mei grabbed his hand well knowing that he was going to inform the authorities so that they could take her. "Please, tell them that she's not yet fine. Just for a few hours, I want to stay with her for a while," she pleaded. Taking a deep breath, he said," I'm sorry I can't do that ma'am. That is obstruction of justice and it can highly impact my career." Li Mei pleaded further but just then, the door was opened and the officers came in followed by a man unknown to them. The man asked," Doctor, is she alright?"
"Yes, rest assured you can take her. She can have her medication from there," he said before leaving the room. She was told to change out of the hospital gown in the bathroom and after that, both hands were bound with handcuffs and she was taken away. Li Mei immediately followed them as she kept calling her husband who wasn't picking up so as to inform him that they were taking their daughter. As soon as Li Fei was taken away, Assistant Wang Mel called his boss and informed him. Li Mei followed the police car and they reached the central police station of Shanghai.
