"Cousin, are you alright?" Qiao Wanwan asked speechlessly. "If you can cure Jingting, I would be more than happy to do so, but as I said, the treatment cannot be rushed and cannot cause any damage to his body. Your method is not feasible, so there is no need to consider it."

"You just don't like me!" Ruan Tang said indignantly. "Sister-in-law, I've been working so hard to treat Brother Jingting, and you're targeting me. Don't you have any sense of responsibility as Mrs. Zhan?"

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

"I don't have the awareness to be Mrs. Zhan, do I?" Qiao Wanwan smiled faintly and said, "What difference would it make me gain two pounds or live two more years if I targeted you? So I don't have the time to target you."

“It concerns Jingting, so being meticulous is to be expected. No matter how you interpret my words, it won’t change my mind.” Qiao Wanwan looked at her. “Finally, I want to say that, cousin, you’d better watch your words next time you speak to me. You’re the first person to dare call me narrow-minded. If there’s a next time, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Ruan Tang: "......"

She suppressed her anger and apologized, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I misspoke in my haste."

"It's good that you know you're wrong. Of course, I hope you really do know you're wrong." Qiao Wanwan stood up. "Continue to work on other solutions. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to you surpassing me."

Ruan Tang: "......"

Qiao Wanwan ignored her and left.

Ruan Tang was so angry that her face turned pale, and she barely managed to restrain herself from smashing the things on the tea table!

She took out her phone and made a call. "The research results have been rejected. Start new research immediately! Remember, you must be quick! Do everything you can to cure Jingting's illness!"

"Also, the proposal I put forward earlier must be studied immediately. I must finally achieve my goal!"

......

When Zhan Jingting returned to his room, Qiao Wanwan was reading with the two children.

Xiao Jiu was very attached to Qiao Wanwan, sitting in her lap, turning the pages of the book one by one.

Zhan Jingting's heart warmed suddenly, and he stepped forward to ask, "Did Ruan Tang come to see you and upset you?"

Qiao Wanwan looked up at him. "Who said she offended me?"

“Aunt Zheng said Ruan Tang was very angry when she left. I don’t need to guess to know that she must have provoked you and you scolded her.”

Qiao Wanwan chuckled, "Mr. Zhan, you know me very well."

"If you don't like seeing her, just don't let her into the house anymore, so as not to upset you."

“She came to report on her work progress, so of course I have to see her,” Qiao Wanwan said. “I confronted her today because she did something useless. I just made things clear to her, and she’s the one who’s unhappy, not me, so I don’t need to take it to heart.”

"good."

Xiao Jiu pointed at the book and nudged Qiao Wanwan's arm.

Qiao Wanwan looked at it and asked, "Does Xiao Jiu want to draw?"

Xiao Jiu nodded.

"Little Jiu is great! Your brother also likes to draw. Let's go to the art studio together."

Zhan Jingting accompanied them to the art studio. Xiao Jiu pointed to a painting on the wall, her eyes sparkling.

Qiao Wanwan smiled and said, "So our little Jiu came to see this family photo. The paintings on this wall were all painted by your brother. You see, that wall over there is for you. Mommy will hang up the paintings you painted, okay?"

Xiao Jiu nodded, took out her iPad, and wrote: "Xiao Jiu likes this painting."

“Mommy likes it too. This is our family photo. Look, this is you.”

Xiao Jiu smiled shyly, then quickly went to the easel, picked up a brush, and began to paint.

While Shiyi was drawing with Xiao Jiu, Zhan Jingting took Qiao Wanwan's hand and sat down, asking, "Has there been any progress in Xiao Jiu's condition?"

“Master has been treating Sister Shujun’s health recently, so I’ve divided my time in the lab in two, for you and Xiao Jiu, so progress has been slow.”

"You're pregnant, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Qiao Wanwan looked at him. "Jingting, Ruan Tang came today and found an extreme solution, but I rejected it."

"Wanwan, you don't need to tell me these things." Zhan Jingting pulled her into his arms. "You are the person who loves me the most in this world. Whatever decision you make, it's for my own good."

"I knew you'd think that way." Qiao Wanwan smiled brightly. "Jingting, we still have time. We definitely won't lose."

"Um."

Qiao Wanwan frowned and suddenly hissed!

"What's wrong?" Zhan Jingting quickly helped her up. "Where do you feel unwell?"

Qiao Wanwan touched her belly, "The baby kicked me."

"Let me see." Zhan Jingting leaned over her belly and listened. "You actually dared to kick Mommy, huh?"

Qiao Wanwan smiled, her eyes crinkling, "You said he didn't dare to move."

"That's more like it."

“It’s best if the child is active.” Qiao Wanwan stroked the man’s short, ink-black hair. “But whether he’s mischievous or quiet, as long as he’s healthy, it’s fine either way.”

"Um."

......

The prescription given by the miraculous doctor was very effective. Qin Shujun's complexion quickly improved, and her chest tightness and pain were greatly relieved.

Qin Shujun wept with joy, “Wanwan, I have never slept so well before. I haven’t been woken up in the middle of the night by pain for several days now.”

Qiao Wanwan said, "That's good. My master will adjust the prescription according to your condition, and with the addition of acupuncture, there will definitely be greater improvement."

"Wanwan, thank you, thank you all." Qin Shujun was extremely grateful. "At first, when I guessed that Xiao Jiu was your child, I was very afraid of your appearance, but now I am very fortunate. If I hadn't met you, my illness would never have been alleviated. I really didn't expect that I could breathe freely again and no longer have to suffer..."
