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!
AdvertisementXinghe 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 .
