Chapter 531: Recuperation
Translator: Lonelytree
I smiled wryly. “It’s fine.”
“What do you mean by that? The capillaries here have already formed a scar.” Lin Ran said angrily.
I closed my eyes as cold needles flashed through my mind. Ma Ji had never treated me like an actual human before!!!
“Is it… that bad, Doctor Lin? Can it be treated?” Daisy asked carefully with tears in her eyes.
Daisy really cared about me. Then again, Ma Ji also used the same care and concern as she drew vials of my blood. Who could I really trust?
Lin Ran said coldly, “She won’t die, but it won’t be so easy to recover!”
Daisy’s tears fell. “My poor miss.”
I smiled. “It’s fine. At least I won’t die.”
Daisy cried even harder.
Lin Ran took my venous blood. His movements were very gentle. I didn’t feel any pain at all. I didn’t expect him to be so calm after what he had seen.
“I’ll take it back for testing. I’ll give you the results as soon as possible. Your body is very weak right now. I’ll send a Chinese medicine doctor over as soon as possible. You need to take good care of your body. If this continues, even though you won’t die, living will be a form of torture.” He looked very angry.
I didn’t understand why he was angry. Shouldn’t I be the one who was angry?
Daisy was already in a daze. “Doctor Lin, please, help us find a good Chinese medicine practitioner. As long as Miss can recover, it doesn’t matter how much money we spend.”
I smiled. The problems that money could solve weren’t problems. But could my problems be solved with money?
Sure enough, Lin Ran sighed. “This isn’t an issue of money. But don’t worry, we’ll do our best to nurse her body.”
I raised my eyes to look at Lin Ran. “That’s what those people said when they drew my blood. It was to nurse me back to health.”
Lin Ran stopped what he was doing. He understood what I meant. His expression was a little hurt.
He lowered his voice. “Nanxing, it doesn’t matter if you remember us or not. The most important thing now is to nurse your body back to health. The poison in your body is very strange. We need to identify it before we can detoxify it.”
He bent down, his gaze level with mine. “But Nanxing, even if Jing Tian traded his life for it, he wouldn’t let anything happen to you! You don’t know what kind of life he’s been living these past few years –” He paused and sighed. “God is fucked up! Why can’t he just leave the good people alone?!”
He packed up his medicine box. He turned around and said to Daisy, “Your Miss’ body is very weak. She needs to rest. Don’t let her work too hard. I’ll send a set of equipment to monitor her body. If there’s anything strange, you have to inform me immediately.”
Daisy asked hesitantly, “What, what do you mean by strange?”
Lin Ran explained patiently, “For example, dizziness, headaches, nosebleeds, coughs, and so on. Even when she loses her temper, you have to tell me. We’re not sure what kind of poison we’re dealing with.”
Daisy nodded hurriedly. She worshipped Lin Ran like a god.
I glanced at him. This was equivalent to giving Lin Ran a pass to enter and leave this place anytime and anywhere. I knew Lin Ran was doing this for Jing Tian. He didn’t really care about me.
Lin Ran didn’t mind my wariness around him. Before he left, he said lightly, “Yes, I’m doing this for him. Because if you don’t survive, he’s not going to last for long either. You two will have a better chance of reuniting in the afterworld.” He shook his head. “Why are you two always giving me so much trouble?”
After he left, I examined my heart. I didn’t dislike Lin Ran.
Instead, I felt a warm feeling of being cared for and loved.. This was something that I had never felt before.
