After the illegal drugs were found in Wen Hongying's room, not only Chen Houwen, but everyone in the Chen family underwent blood tests for the drugs.
Chen Houwen had been evading medical examinations for the past two years, which provided Wen Hongying with an excellent opportunity to poison him.
His body was gradually eroded away, like a frog being slowly boiled in water.
This inspection has thoroughly exposed the problem.
His body contained dangerously high levels of toxins, causing irreversible damage to his internal organs.
If he had continued taking it for a while longer, Chen Houwen might have died of a myocardial infarction quite "naturally".
Trace amounts of toxins were also found in Lin Zhenzhen's blood.
Upon hearing this news, Yu Jiamu was thunderstruck and immediately took her to the dean's office.
To address this, the hospital organized a special expert consultation.
Fortunately, the same conclusion was reached in the end: this dose will not have any effect on the body.
This matter also alarmed the Yu family.
When Wang Jingrou called that evening, Yu Jiamu was taking a shower.
His voice was mixed with the sound of water: "Could you answer this for me? Stand by the door and turn on the speakerphone."
Lin Zhenzhen did as he said.
When the call connected, Wang Jingrou sounded anxious.
"Jiamu, how is Xiaozhen feeling?"
"The doctor said it's nothing."
"That's good." Wang Jingrou paused. "It won't affect the baby, right?"
Lin Zhenzhen's hand slipped, and she almost lost her grip on the phone.
She had almost forgotten that she was carrying a fictional child.
The sound of running water in the bathroom disappeared.
Inside the enclosed space, Yu Jiamu's voice suddenly became clear: "Yeah, it's nothing."
Hello!
Big brother!
How did you manage to say something so calmly?
Wang Jingrou on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank God." She quickly changed the subject, "After what happened to the Chen family, does your father disapprove of your relationship with Ling Zhen...?"
Before she could finish speaking, the bathroom door suddenly opened a crack, and white steam escaped from inside.
Yu Jiamu snatched the phone from Lin Zhenzhen's hand.
A trail of water stains was left on her hand.
He deliberately lowered his voice, and after closing the door, Lin Zhenzhen could no longer hear what the two were saying.
Unfortunately, she wasn't really interested either.
It's simply that Mr. Yu felt that Chen's stock price had been fluctuating recently, and he started to be picky about his business partners.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! The truth behind the arson case has been revealed. Revenge progress bar +10, current progress 90/100.]
[Wow, this is so dramatic!] The system, which knew the whole story, was extremely excited.
[When Wen Hongying's lover heard that identifying an accomplice could secure leniency, he confessed to Wen Hongying without hesitation, even claiming that she had ordered him to set the fire.]
Upon hearing that she had been sold, Wen Hongying was heartbroken and immediately accused him of acting on her own initiative. In short, both of them were trying their best to shift the blame onto the other.
The system smacked its lips, seemingly still savoring the spectacle: "This dog-eat-dog drama was absolutely spectacular; it's a real shame you missed it, host."
Lin Zhenzhen's attention, however, was on something else.
[There are still 10 progress points left?]
Oh dear, Chen Houwen was only diagnosed as terminally ill, he's not dead yet, is he?
Lin Zhenzhen understood.
Now we're just waiting for Chen Houwen to catch his breath.
Therefore, Lin Zhenzhen paid close attention to Chen Houwen's health.
She visits the hospital regularly every day to see the doctor and discuss the patient's condition.
Chen Houwen's body weakened rapidly, as if deflated.
As his life drew to a close, he possessed a vast fortune but lost his health.
In the end, he was left with only his daughter, whom he had only known for a few months.
Chen Houwen was filled with mixed emotions.
"Xiao Zhen, I'm sorry to your mother, and I'm sorry to you too."
Lin Zhenzhen lifted her eyelids: There are many people you've wronged.
So, when exactly are you going to die?
Chen Houwen clearly didn't want to die; he wanted to struggle a little longer, so he contacted doctors abroad and took a risk to try a new treatment.
Because he left so suddenly, he missed Lin Zhenzhen's engagement party.
In order to ensure that none of her family members showed up in the end.
Yu Jiamu made a special trip to Kyoto and brought Chen Xinji back after he had been spending several weeks in internet cafes.
When I saw Chen Xinji again, he had lost a lot of weight.
The adorable baby fat on his face was gone, and his curly hair, because it hadn't been styled for a long time, gave him a more homeless, artistic air.
He had lost his former soft and cute demeanor, and seemed somewhat shy, hunching over his phone the entire time.
“He just doesn’t know how to face you,” Yu Jiamu explained. “He feels guilty because of what happened to your mother.”
Lin Zhenzhen withdrew her gaze and looked at Yu Jiamu beside her.
He was wearing a suit today, and the dark blue tie on his chest looked particularly good.
Because she chose the style herself, and she tied it on herself.
Lin Zhenzhen wore a pink dress that reached just to her knees, revealing her two straight calves.
She held a bouquet of flowers and received blessings from those around her.
"Jiamu, Xiaozhen, congratulations."
Wang Jingrou smiled and handed Lin Zhenzhen a red envelope.
Lin Zhenzhen touched the red envelope and felt a hard, square object. She realized that it contained a bank card.
Wang Jingrou winked at her: "The password is today's date."
Yu Jiamu immediately thanked her, saying, "Thank you, Third Sister-in-law. You're the one who loves us the most."
“It has nothing to do with you,” Wang Jingrou joked with a smile. “I’m worried about Xiaozhen and the baby in her belly.”
