“I know about your relationship with the Ji family, so I called to ask. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have cared about this.”

Zhong Yiliu briefly explained how some people asked him about medicine No. 88634.

“…At first, I didn’t think about the Ji family of the independent continent. I thought that a friend of Lu Zhi’s needed this medicine. Who knew Nan Tianyi would beat around the bush and ask me about it? You also know Nan Tianyi’s relationship with the Xie family, so I thought of Ji Lingfeng. Recently, everyone in the independent continent has been talking about him. Tell me, is he not the one using this medicine?”

Qiao Nian stayed silent. After a while, she threw the ball of paper into the trash can and walked to the balcony. Feeling the cold wind, her mind cleared and she asked, “What exactly is this medicine’s effect?”

Zhong Yiliu told her about it.

The pressure around Qiao Nian dropped and she immediately said, “You’ve seen… that person’s case. Do you think there’s still hope?”

Zhong Yiliu didn’t detect the heaviness in her words. He thought about it seriously and replied, “He’s terminally ill. I suspect he’s been poisoned. It’s a slow-acting poison that has been lurking in his body for a few decades. He probably started consuming this slow-acting poison when he was young.

“Given the quantity of this poison, he should have died upon reaching adulthood, but I don’t know what happened midway. The consumption of the poison was cut off, and it didn’t reach a critical point. However, even after he stopped ingesting it, the poison remained in his body. His bone marrow and blood are filled with poison. This time, his body was severely injured, and his immunity decreased. Only then did this hidden poison begin to invade his internal organs… If you’re talking about saving him, you definitely can’t.”

Zhong Yiliu had always spoken the truth and did not like to make false promises.

“The poison invaded his bone marrow. Even God can’t save him now! Moreover, we’re just doctors, not God. We can’t build a new body for him.

“There’s no way to save him. But like I said, if he’s sent to me in time, I’ll nurse him back to health. If he obeys me and lets go of everything to live peacefully, he might be able to live a few more years. Of course, if he’s unwilling, there’s only one outcome. He’ll die quickly.”

Qiao Nian knew he was just stating the truth. She had studied medicine and knew well how bad the situation was after Zhong Yiliu’s explanation.

She was almost certain that this uncooperative patient was Ji Lingfeng.

However, she did not expect Ji Lingfeng to be poisoned. Furthermore, he had been fed poison since he was young. There was probably only one person who could do such a shocking thing.

—Nie Qingru.

Qiao Nian wasn’t in a good mood. After what Zhong Yiliu told her, it was as if a huge rock was pressing down on her heart. She couldn’t let it go.

Zhong Yiliu had only called to ask if she knew who wanted this medicine. Seeing that she did not know, he did not continue asking.

Qiao Nian hung up. Her mood was at a low point as she took a cold shower. When she came out, Wen Ruxia had already replied.

She said she had received the score and was discussing it with her teacher to see if there was anything that needed Qiao Nian’s cooperation to modify.

However, Wen Ruxia knew how to behave. She thanked Qiao Nian for her help and even said she had to treat her to a meal.

Qiao Nian replied, saying Wen Ruxia could ask if she had any questions.
