Chapter 161 If the reagent fails, he will die of heart failure.
Fu Beichen felt the little woman in his arms trembling violently, and he could also feel the liquid dripping down her face.
He slowly raised his hand, groping and caressing her cheek.
My fingertips touched something damp and cool.
"Niannian, don't cry."
His voice was soft, carrying a kind of bewildered reassurance.
"Don't be sad, I'm fine. I used to think Lin Qi was a noisy guy, but now... it's quiet."
He smiled and gently patted her back.
He struggled to put on his armor, clinging to the last shred of dignity he had left.
"Fu Beichen, let me take you back to your room to rest."
She sniffed and spoke again, but he didn't move; he couldn't hear her.
She then took his hand and led him slowly forward. His steps were small, carrying a hint of fear of the unknown.
"Lift your leg, there are stairs," she called out habitually.
But he didn't hear it!
He took a step forward and collapsed onto the stairs.
Due to the conditioned reflex pulling force, she was pulled down as well, and she landed beside him.
He pulled her back into his arms anxiously, stroking her head. "Niannian, did you hurt yourself? I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."
At this moment, he looked utterly remorseful.
"Fu Beichen, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt."
She shook her head desperately, tears streaming down her face.
Lin Qi rushed in and quickly helped the two of them up. Then, the two of them supported Fu Beichen on either side and walked forward together.
This staircase, though short, is exceptionally difficult.
Once in the room, she settled him on the bed and then took out the newly prepared reagent.
"Madam, the reagent was successfully prepared?" Lin Qi asked with delight.
"I've tried it, it's not poisonous." Her voice was calm, but it carried an indescribable weariness.
She held up the reagent bottle to the light, and the pale red liquid shimmered in her eyes.
He added, "Reduced toxicity means reduced efficacy."
These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Lin Qi's heart.
"Then, Mr. Fu... will he be alright?" He looked at the man sitting by the bed with concern.
"I don't know, there's no time, let him try first."
She carefully drew the reagent into the syringe and then slowly pushed it into a small glass. The red liquid formed a thin layer at the bottom of the glass.
She picked up the cup, walked to the bedside, and sat down.
She took a deep breath, brought the glass to his lips, and gently tilted it.
His eyelids twitched, as if he had noticed, and he obediently swallowed all the liquid in the cup.
Gu Xingnian put down her cup and reached out to help him take off his coat, wanting him to lie down and sleep more comfortably.
He suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
It wasn't very forceful, but it was very stubborn.
"Niannian, don't go. Can you stay here tonight?" The voice was low and pleading.
She paused, then added, "As long as you're by my side, that's enough."
Yes, he was afraid.
He was afraid that he would die in his sleep.
Therefore, he only wanted her to be by his side.
Gu Xingnian gently patted his hand and continued to help him take off his clothes.
She covered him with a thin blanket and lay down beside him fully clothed. The north wind outside the window was blowing fiercely, rustling the leaves.
The room was heated to a high level, but the chill seemed to penetrate everything.
He suddenly turned over, facing her, and reached out his arm to pull her into his embrace.
"Niannian, if that day ever comes, don't be sad."
His voice was soft and slow, as if he were giving instructions.
Gu Xingnian's heart sank.
"I had someone retrieve your paper airplane, and it's now stored in Fengshi Town."
He kept talking, his voice getting softer and softer.
"Forgive me for the hurt I caused you. It was all my fault in the past."
He tightened his grip, resting his chin on the top of her head and gently stroking it.
"Or... maybe you shouldn't bury me..."
He murmured to himself, as if talking to himself, or perhaps to her.
She didn't say anything, but simply reached out and intertwined her fingers with his, holding them very tightly.
She quietly stayed with him, spending this long and unknown night together.
tomorrow.
It may be a new beginning, or it may be an end.
At this moment, she was more panicked than anyone else...
...
On the other side, Sheng Weiwei tossed and turned in bed for half the night.
She slept restlessly, rolling to the edge of the bed, curled up into a small ball, looking rather pitiful.
The bedroom doorknob was pressed down gently, making almost no sound.
Zhan Xiao's tall figure appeared in the doorway, silently watching the small bulge on the bed.
He stood there for a while before taking long strides and quietly walking inside.
He got into bed, and the mattress sank in only a very slight spot.
He reached out his long arm from behind and carefully pulled the person who was about to fall off the bed back, gently embracing him to his chest.
Her body was soft and smelled fresh after her bath.
Zhan Xiao's hands were large and calloused, yet at this moment he gently covered her flat stomach with an almost reverent gesture.
There, a little life is quietly being conceived, carrying the heartbeats of him and her.
He lowered his head and placed a burning kiss on her hair, as if he were treating a priceless treasure that had been lost and found again.
...
The next day, when Fu Beichen woke up, he found that he was still alive, but his world was still pitch black.
He didn't move, but simply quietly felt the darkness.
Until, she heard her cautious, tentative voice.
"Fu Beichen, can you hear my voice? Fu Beichen."
He shouted excitedly.
"Niannian, I can hear your voice, I can hear you."
"Really?" Gu Xingnian's voice was filled with barely suppressed joy. "That's wonderful!"
She rushed over, took his hand, and felt its warmth and softness.
"Lie down and don't move. The doctor will come over soon to do tests and examinations for you."
Two doctors quickly came in and conducted a series of thorough examinations on him.
The only sound in the room was the faint noise from the equipment. The examination was completed in about half an hour.
The examination revealed that his hearing, smell, and pain had been restored, but his vision and taste were still lost.
and……
Gu Xingnian and the doctor went out, and she closed the door, asking impatiently.
"Doctor, how is he/she?"
The doctor's expression was very serious. "Madam, Mr. Fu has been poisoned for too long, and his cardiopulmonary function has deteriorated rapidly."
"If the virus cannot be eliminated in one go, I'm afraid that in the end... I will die of heart failure."
Gu Xingnian's heart sank. Sure enough, the dosage of the Seven-Colored Brocade was too small to clear the virus.
She paused for a moment, her voice a little dry, "If I keep suppressing his poison, how much longer can I... drag it out?"
"Given the current situation, it should take about a week."
The doctor revealed the harsh reality.
"His brain nerves are severely damaged, his vision is already impaired, and next, he may... lose his memory."
In short, you need to be mentally prepared.
The glimmer of hope that had just ignited in Gu Xingnian's heart was instantly extinguished.
Inside the room, Fu Beichen was already standing by the door, and every word the doctor said reached his ears.
He understood what she meant by "suppressing the poison".
He could only use her blood... but he would never let her get hurt again.
Gu Xingnian pushed the door open and entered with a "plop".
She fainted and collapsed on the wooden floor.
"Niannian, Niannian!" Fu Beichen shouted anxiously and quickly picked her up.
She didn't know that when she woke up, Fu Beichen was already gone...
