Chapter 923 We Must Face It



They offered ingots, incense, and candles, donated money for incense oil to the donation box, and made a sincere wish to Zhilan before the Buddha.

They also placed an ever-burning lamp in the temple, praying for peace and blessings.

Xiang Zhilan used every method she could think of to pray for a long and healthy life.

By the time they descended the mountain, it was already sunset.

The day is almost over, and we are getting closer to tomorrow.

After returning to the city, Xiang Zhilan was still a little worried, so she called Xin Zikai to ask about the progress.

Xin Zikai hasn't slept for over thirty days, and he'll be up all night again tonight.

He couldn't promise Xiang Zhilan anything; all he could say was that he had done his best.

The rest is up to fate.

Xiang Zhilan knew that she had already put Xin Zikai in a difficult position by calling him over, as antidotes were not so easy to develop, so she naturally wouldn't blame him.

After exchanging a few words, she hung up the phone and sat quietly.

Shen Muzhi knew she was upset, but she had also been through a lot today. If she didn't eat or sleep, her body wouldn't be able to take it.

So he half-squatted in front of her and whispered his advice.

Xiang Zhilan looked down at Shen Muzhi in front of her, her heart trembling slightly with emotion. She nodded and agreed to have dinner with him, letting him lead her downstairs.

At night, however, I tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep.

Shen Muzhi sensed her movement, hugged her tightly from behind, and whispered, "Don't think about it. No matter what the outcome is, we'll have to face it tomorrow."

Xiang Zhilan turned around in his arms, rested her forehead against his chest, and said in a hoarse voice, "She said she would be the children's godmother, and that she would give them a big red envelope for the full moon celebration. She won't go back on her word."

"No, it won't happen." Shen Muzhi was not good at speaking, and his ability to offer comfort was limited, so he could only lower his head and kiss her hair.

That night, Xiang Zhilan chatted with Shen Muzhi about the interesting things that had happened between her and Ni Sitian over the years.

She finally fell asleep, exhausted, just as dawn was approaching.

Xu Tingchuan has already moved Ni Sitian to the hospital, which was Xin Zikai's suggestion. If the antidote is ineffective, it will be easier to treat her in the hospital.

She has been burning a fever for over thirty hours now, and although he has been trying to lower her temperature physically, it is clearly not very effective.

Xu Tingchuan glanced at the time; it was August 16th, and a little past 10 a.m.

He spoke with Xin Zikai on the phone; Xin Zikai would probably arrive around 2 PM.

The decision of life or death has less than four hours to go.

Xu Tingchuan stared at Ni Sitian and spoke to her softly, talking about the time they had spent together over the past year, his past views and attitudes towards her, and when he gradually fell in love with her.

The first time he clearly felt jealous was when he saw Qin Mubei hug her on the tree-lined path at school. Although he managed to restrain himself from going forward, he was really angry. Later, when he went back to the meeting, he made a lot of mistakes. He rarely had such emotions.

"Ni Sitian, I beg you, please don't leave me." Xu Tingchuan buried his face in her palm, pleading softly and humbly.

When Xiang Zhilan arrived and saw this scene, she didn't dare to go in. She turned around and hugged Shen Muzhi, nestled against his chest, her shoulders trembling slightly.

One after another, Xu Jiayue, Pei Yang, Gu Chen, and Fu Wenuan arrived.

Xu Tingchuan had ordered Xu Jiayue not to tell Xu Haicheng and Jin Rulan about this for the time being, so the elders in the family were still unaware.
