Chapter 327: I Will Remember You Even After You Die
It seemed a waste for the woman to die just like that. After all, she had played him for a fool; how could he just let her go so easily? In this world, no one was capable of doing that before, it taunted him deeply. Life would be more interesting with her in it.
However, if she didn’t die, his identity would be found out sooner or later; how could he possibly allow that?
The man hesitated for a moment before ruthlessness and mercilessness entered his heart.
Xia Meng must die! But...
"Xia Meng, Xia Meng, I promise you’ll always have a space in my heart even after your death," the man said with an eerie smile. It must be said that his interest in the woman had gone beyond just platonic. After all, this was the first time he had come across such an intriguing woman in his life.
If you were not Ye Shen’s ex-wife and standing right in the middle of my path, it probably would’ve been fun having you around. But... you have to die! However, rest in the comfort that I shall remember your name ever after you die, that is not an honor I bequeath just anyone.
On the other hand, Xinghe had no interest in having that honor. The only thing she wanted from the man was his life!
Xinghe had been unconscious for a whole day and Mubai had been by her side for the same amount of time.
Xinghe’s eyes eventually fluttered open. However, before she could say anything, the first thing that came out of her mouth was a deep cough of blood!
The smile that Mubai had on his face from seeing her awake instantly disappeared.
"Xia Xinghe, what’s wrong with you‽" Mubai asked concernedly as he moved to hold her body.
The answer he got was another bloody cough. Xinghe averted her face and the blood dripped onto the mattress. It dyed the fabric instantly. This scene filled Mubai’s heart with fear.
He jumped up, leaned out the door, and yelled, "Lu Qi, get over here quick!"
"What’s going on?" Lu Qi dashed over immediately. He was also shocked when he saw Xinghe’s conditions.
"You tell me!" Mubai demanded as he dragged the good doctor into the room forcefully.
"Let me take a look..." Lu Qi rushed to administer aid. He said nothing after his examination but injected Xinghe with some medicine.
Xinghe’s conditions had stabilized visibly after Lu Qi did his thing, at least she stopped vomiting blood. However, her face was still as pale as a dead body.
"How can this happen?" Mubai asked chillingly. God knows how much self-discipline he was exerting to prevent himself from exploding.
Lu Qi frowned and answered, "Even though I’ve given her plenty of antitoxin, the damage caused by the drug was simply too much. Almost all of her internal organs have reached their limits."
"Will she die?" This was the only question Mubai cared about.
"I can keep her alive but only in this vegetative state. If she had arrived one day sooner, she wouldn’t be stuck with this irreparable damage," Lu Qi commented solemnly.
Mubai’s only reply was, "Keep her alive!"
Vegetative state or not, at least she was alive.
Lu Qi nodded. "I will try my best."
"Finish the research on the memory cells as soon as possible. Lu Qi, my patience is running thin. Don’t make me treat you as an enemy," Mubai warned icily.
Lu Qi looked at him, his eyes filled up with guilt and shame. "I will."
He was also beating himself up for betraying his good friend for the sake of medical research.
The only thing he could do now was to keep his promise, to make up for the pain he had caused Xinghe and Mubai.
Mubai ignored him after he received Lu Qi’s promised and turned back to care for the weakened Xinghe.
