In the middle of the night. [△Net w ww.Ai Qu xs.]
On the soft European-style bed in the bedroom.
Ou Zihan turned to look at Bai Zhi lying beside him. Her fair and beautiful face slept peacefully and serenely in the moonlight. She was like a doll in a shop window, so beautiful that it was breathtaking. His little woman was the most beautiful woman in the world.
He gazed at her with lingering affection for a while longer, and as he looked, his dark eyes inexplicably welled up with tears.
He wanted to stroke her face with his large hand, but afraid of waking her, he stopped in mid-air and looked at her affectionately for a long, long time. Her fair face, long eyelashes, delicate features, and pink lips were all tempting to his heart.
She is a cinnabar mark on his heart, indelible, forever captivating him, forever making him reluctant to part with her. How could he possibly leave her?
A surge of pain welled up in his heart. No, he had to fight the disease; he had to buy time.
Then, he quietly got out of bed, tiptoed out of bed, gently opened the door, left the bedroom, and walked towards the study.
Has something so serious happened to Zihan? How could Baizhi possibly sleep?
She hadn't slept at all; she had been waiting for Zihan to fall asleep so she could secretly take his pulse. That way, at least she would understand Zihan's condition and be able to treat him accordingly.
However, Zihan did not sleep. He just stared at her intently until midnight. His lingering gaze and reluctance to leave her frightened Baizhi even more. What illness was he hiding?
As soon as Zihan left the bedroom, she tiptoed out after her. She stood at the door, watching Zihan walk towards the study, her heart pounding with anxiety as she waited.
Zihan entered the study, and Baizhi quietly approached the study door.
Fortunately, the study door wasn't completely closed. If it had been, in this soundproof house, even if someone stood outside with their ear pressed against the door, they wouldn't have heard anything. She certainly wouldn't have opened the door, and with such a loud noise, Zihan naturally noticed.
Luckily, the study door was ajar, with a crack, so I could see right inside.
In the study, Ou Zihan sat at his desk. Opposite him stood an elderly man with white hair. The old man had a kind face, with several lines left by the vicissitudes of life. Judging from his taste and attire, he looked like a high-level intellectual, giving people a sense of elegance and erudition.
Mo Nan stood next to Ou Zihan.
Bai Zhi looked at the old man and felt a strange sense of familiarity and warmth. Why did he seem so familiar? She quickly searched her memory. Oh, she finally remembered! Wasn't this her master, Professor Chen?
The reason she is so skilled in medicine and can treat diseases that ordinary doctors cannot is because she has a famous doctor as her mentor. Her mother had her study under Professor Chen from a young age. Professor Chen is a legendary figure in the medical field. Because of studying under him, Bai Zhi's medical skills have made rapid progress.
She finally saw her master! She was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She recalled her childhood when she was learning medicine, and she had a deep affection for her master.
Zihan has managed to find such a skilled doctor as her master, so there should be hope for her illness, right? She rubbed her eyes wide and pricked up her ears, waiting to hear the results.
"President Ou, I've been very scared and worried lately. I changed your prescription for your worsening condition and used a stronger and more effective drug. How have you been feeling these past two days? Has your condition improved?"
Professor Chen looked at him anxiously with his cloudy eyes. President Ou's illness had become a knot in his heart. He wanted to overcome this difficulty and cure his illness, but why was it so difficult?
“Professor Chen, my condition has been getting worse lately. I’m vomiting blood every day, and I have constant chest pain, which is getting more and more intense. Sometimes my vision suddenly goes completely black and I can’t see anything. This condition is also intermittent, sometimes better and sometimes worse. Today when I was cooking, I realized that I made the rice so salty, but it tasted bland to me.”
"I remembered what Tang Yu said when he poisoned me in the Crimson Blood Hall. His poison could make me lose my three senses and die in excruciating pain. Professor Chen, I think I have already lost my sense of taste. Am I not far from death? Tell me, how much longer can I live? I need to be mentally prepared."
Although he maintained a calm expression, his voice was trembling slightly.
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi covered her mouth and burst into tears. Tang Yu poisoned Zi Han? Zi Han was poisoned while saving her. She was heartbroken. How much had Zi Han endured for her sake?
This poison has been in Zihan's body for five years? She never knew that for the past five years, Zihan had been enduring all kinds of pain, torment, and psychological pressure.
What is the agonizing feeling of waiting for death?
How did he cope?
Zihan still smiles every day, living with her and her son as if nothing is wrong, but what terrible and painful things he is carrying are actually on his mind.
Is Zihan really about to die? She trembled all over as she sobbed in pain, her eyes overflowing with sorrow.
No, she didn't want him to leave!
Zihan won't leave. Master will definitely have a way. Master is so powerful, he will definitely save Zihan. She waited for Master's answer.
At this moment, Mo Nan, his eyes brimming with tears, felt an immense pang of sorrow as the CEO was on the verge of death. He spoke softly, "CEO, there's something I don't know if I should say, something I've kept inside for five years. Back then, Tang Yu kidnapped Bai Zhi to blackmail you. Tang Yu liked Bai Zhi; he wouldn't really do anything to her. There was no need for you to risk everything to save Bai Zhi, which led to you being tricked and poisoned by Tang Yu. You are the lifeblood of the Ou Group, the economic powerhouse of Country A. You cannot..."
