Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Song Fan couldn’t comprehend why Gu Chen was so insistent on her staying. Even if he was interested in her medical skills, she could only provide temporary pain relief; there was no cure for his condition.
The combination of poisons in his body was intricate and challenging to detoxify. Moreover, these toxins were unfamiliar to her.
Song Fan had no desire to take on such a troublesome task. She had already secured a promise from Gu Chen, and she intended to use it to find the Tango Fruit.
Unaware that he was a trouble to Song Fan, Gu Chen gazed at her with hope in his eyes.
He believed that their shared experiences and the bond they had formed meant that Song Fan had feelings for him.
As Song Fan lowered her head and began removing the needles, she motioned for Su Yang to help Gu Chen get dressed. She firmly stated, “I won’t stay. I have my own commitments, and the Gu Family has plenty of doctors if you need
one.”
Turning to leave, Song Fan was interrupted when Su Yang rushed over and held onto Gu Chen, exclaiming, “Young Master, why are you in pain again? I’ll fetch a doctor and get you some medicine.”
These two statements were filled with sorrow, as though Gu Chen were on the brink of death. To any listener, it would sound like a dire situation.
Su Yang spoke while signaling Gu Chen with his eyes. Then, Gu Chen pretended to suffer from a severe headache.
Song Fan did not expect Gu Chen to lie. She was taken aback by his apparent distress and moved to check his pulse. However, before she could touch his wrist, he pulled his hand away, stating, “If Miss Song is unwilling, I won’t trouble you.”
Su Yang continued to play his part, pretending to be upset. “Young Master, please don’t be stubborn. The special medication that’s been developed is no longer very effective for you. You have to take several pills daily to stabilize your condition. Let Miss Song take a look at you.”
Song Fan, upon hearing this, furrowed her brow. She hadn’t expected Gu Chen to have such a strong resistance to medication. Even the specialized drugs could only provide a few hours of pain relief.
She forcefully grabbed Gu Chen’s wrist and began feeling his pulse. However, as soon as she touched it, she realized Gu Chen was feigning his distress. Although the toxins in his body had temporarily calmed down, her expression remained serious.
She understood that the poison was gradually eroding Gu Chen’s nervous system. If this continued, he would eventually suffer severe mental deterioration. Her hands tingle with the desire to help; if she could cure this poison, it would be a significant breakthrough in her medical skills.
“Very well, if you keep pretending, I’ll truly make you suffer,” Song Fan declared with a cold tone.
Gu Chen lowered the hand covering his face and responded, “I simply want you to stay. You can request anything you want.”
“Fine, I’ll stay,” Song Fan said sternly, “But I have to continue my work at school. I’ll come over on weekends to help with your recovery. You can’t inquire about my whereabouts.”
Gu Chen readily agreed, “Alright, I’ll pay you ten times the salary of the accompanying doctors in the market.”
This generous offer brought an instant smile to Song Fan’s face. After all, who wouldn’t welcome more money?
Gu Chen noticed her change in demeanor and smiled, realizing that Song Fan had a keen interest in wealth. In the Gu Family, they were never short of resources or money.
Su Yang let out a sigh, saying, “Back then, Young Master came to A City in search of the miracle-working doctor Ming Jing. I never expected Miss Song’s medical skills to be so impressive. We’re fortunate to have met you.”
Upon hearing the name Ming Jing, Song Fan lowered her eyes to conceal her emotions. She hadn’t anticipated Gu Chen leaving the capital in pursuit of her.
At the time, she had been using the name Ming Jing to practice medicine and gain experience, eventually earning the title of miracle-working doctor. However, she wasn’t particularly fond of this accolade herself.
Gu Chen remarked, “Miss Song is more reliable than the miracle-working doctor.”
Song Fan didn’t want Gu Chen to keep searching for Ming Jing. She extended her hand and said, “I’ll cure you. Let’s make a pact with a high-five!” Gu Chen reached out and touched her fingers, saying, “I believe in you.”
Just as he was about to continue speaking, a voice exclaimed, “Gu Chen!”
The room’s door was thrust open, and Xu Yuan rushed in with tears in his eyes. He said, “You’re still alive! Everyone outside is saying you’re dead!”
Gu Chen’s emotions vanished, and he calmly replied to Xu Yuan, “I’m still alive.”
Xu Yuan stood by the bed and inquired, “What exactly happened? They said you were being pursued because of past conflicts.”
“If that were the case, there’d be a line of people overseas waiting to harm him.” Xiao Lei entered the room and commented, “Only when there’s a dispute over interests would someone go to such lengths.”
Xia Rui and Qi Shuo joined them, offering their concern for Gu Chen before turning around and noticing Song Fan standing behind Su Yang.. Xu Yuan’s eyes widened as he asked, “Why is Miss Song here as well?”
