Chapter 217 No one can take you away
incurable disease……
incurable disease?
The moment Si Yuan heard those four words, it felt as if all the strength had been drained from her legs.
He slid slowly down the wall and finally leaned helplessly against the cold surface.
How could Jiang Wang have contracted an incurable disease?
In the face of death, all those past resentments, unwillingness, pain, and even the determination to completely break with the enemy seem so insignificant.
Her mind went blank; the only thing that came to mind was all the kindness Jiang Wang had shown her over the years.
It was his spirited demeanor, and the way he would do anything for her.
It was that arrogant, seemingly invincible Jiang Wang.
The surrounding noise gradually faded away, and she remained motionless like a statue.
She didn't know how much time had passed until the voice on the other end of the phone startled her from her daze.
"Hello? Miss Si, are you still listening?"
Fang Yan's voice sounded somewhat anxious, "Mr. Jiang's condition is very unstable right now. He has been unwilling to cooperate with the treatment and won't let us notify anyone. But he kept calling your name while he was in a coma. Perhaps... he really wanted to see you one last time."
Si Yuan felt as if a knife had been plunged into her heart. She took a deep breath, trying to steady her trembling voice, and asked, "How much longer does he have?"
Fang Yan gritted his teeth on the other end, made up a timeframe, and said, "The doctor said... at most three months."
Just as Fang Yan finished speaking, Jiang Wang's impatient voice suddenly came from inside the room: "Fang Yan, why are you wasting so much time talking to a harassing phone call? Are you bored?"
Fang Yan was startled, afraid of being exposed, and hurriedly said into the phone, "Just hurry up, or we might not be able to see each other again."
Without waiting for Si Yuan's response, he hurriedly hung up the phone.
He tucked his phone away, turned around, pushed open the door, and immediately put on a cheeky grin as he went inside.
"Oh my, I couldn't bear to hang up because of her beautiful voice. These days, even telemarketers have such sweet voices."
Jiang Wang rolled his eyes at him and said irritably, "You must be really hungry."
Fang Yan wasn't annoyed and walked to the bedside to sit down.
Seeing Jiang Wang's half-dead state, he secretly prayed that Si Yuan would come quickly, otherwise if the play went wrong, he would definitely be beaten to death by Jiang Wang.
——
On the other end of the line, Si Yuan was still in a daze after the call was hung up on.
She stood up in a daze; at that moment, all plans and work became insignificant.
Without saying a word, she booked a flight back to Beijing and rushed home, instructing the nanny to take good care of Si Xingzhou.
The nanny readily agreed, but her eyes flickered as she watched Si Yuan absentmindedly go upstairs to pack her things.
After Si Yuan closed the door, she quietly slipped out, then took out her phone and dialed Song Yan's number.
“Sir,” the nanny said respectfully, “Miss has booked a plane ticket to the capital. She said it’s urgent and she has to leave immediately.”
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, so long that the nanny thought the signal had been lost.
"I understand." Song Yan's voice sounded calm, even with a hint of a smile. "If she wants to leave, let her go."
After hanging up the phone, Song Yan looked out at the night view.
The next second, everything on the table was overturned, and papers were scattered all over the floor.
There are also photos taken when Song Yan and Si Yuan were at their most intimate.
Song Yan walked over and looked down at the photo, seeing her smiling face.
He always believed that as long as he stayed by her side and didn't pressure her, she would eventually come back to him.
But now, for Jiang Wang's sake, she still has to leave.
The glass in the photo is broken.
Song Yan squatted down again and picked up the photo.
He pressed the photo against his chest; the cool touch made him a little more awake.
"I'm sorry..." His voice was soft, trembling slightly, "I only abandoned you once, so why won't you even give me one more chance?"
He gripped the photo tightly, his knuckles turning white, as if he wanted to meld the photo into his body.
"You can only be mine; no one can take you away."
"No one can take you away..."
——
Jiang Wang glanced at the IV drip; the medicine had finished dripping. Without saying a word, he reached out to pull out the needle.
Fang Yan reacted quickly, grabbing his hand and saying, "What are you doing? The doctor said that this is poisoning caused by drugs and alcohol, and you need to stay in the hospital for observation for a few more days."
Jiang Wang shook off his hand, his movements still a little unsteady, but his eyes had turned cold: "I'm fine. There's a high-level meeting at the company, and the old man covered for me all day, so I can't skip it again."
Jiang Wang always clearly distinguished between public and private matters. No matter how much he indulged in love, he never neglected his company duties.
"That's your own father, what's wrong with blocking him?" Fang Yan stood in the doorway, refusing to let him leave. "If you go to the company looking like this, your father will be worried!"
Jiang Wang frowned: "I know my own body."
"What do you know?!" Fang Yan snapped, turned around, ran out, and called the doctor in.
The doctor is Fang Yan's best friend and also the vice president of the hospital.
After he came in, he glanced at Jiang Wang and, following Fang Yan's instructions, ultimately made a decision that went against his ancestors' wishes.
He completely betrayed his medical ethics.
"Mr. Jiang, according to our examination, you not only have gastric mucosal damage, but also severe drug deposition. You must undergo three days of observation and metabolic treatment."
Jiang Wang sneered: "Thank you, but it's not necessary."
After saying that, he walked past the doctor and headed out.
Seeing that this trick didn't work, Fang Yan's eyes lit up. While Jiang Wang turned around to get his coat, he secretly took out two sleeping pills from his pocket, quickly threw them into the water glass next to him, and shook it as he did so.
"Fine, fine, go if you want to leave." Fang Yan handed over the water glass, looking helpless. "You haven't eaten anything since you woke up, but at least drink some water before you go."
Jiang Wang was indeed a little thirsty, but without thinking much, he took the water glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Fang Yan hesitated for a moment, his face grave.
"Jiang Wang, please sit down. I have some questions for you."
Jiang Wang thought he looked like he was sick, so he frowned and looked at him, saying, "What?"
Fang Yan asked, "Why do you think Bai Lu broke up with me again?"
Jiang Wang couldn't help but roll his eyes, sat down, and poured himself another glass of water: "Are you sure you want to ask me?"
He was also surprised that Fang Yan would ask him such relationship questions.
He doesn't even live with the people he likes.
"Last time, at that banquet, it was just because he said a few words to her while getting close to that kid surnamed Sun... and she..."
Fang Yan was almost at his breaking point, but fortunately, a few minutes later, before he could finish muttering his story, the medicine took effect.
As Jiang Wang listened, his eyelids grew heavier and heavier, his head became dizzy, and he slumped to the side and fell onto the bed.
Fang Yan quickly stopped talking, went over and helped him lie down, then covered him with a blanket.
Looking at Jiang Wang's sleeping face, Fang Yan breathed a sigh of relief, then took out his phone to take a look.
"Jiang Wang, Jiang Wang, for your happiness, I've laid out everything I have."
