Chapter 184 Isve Stashed It in My Underwear (2/2)

”Have you secured the prescription?” Chen Ming asked. ”Xin Qing won't be cured if you lose it.”

Young Master Shen nodded. ”I've stashed it in my underwear, for God's sake.”

”You're fucking disgusting, you know that?” Zhang Mi said, pinching her nose. ”How do you even pass it to Ying Qingcang later?”

”Well, how will he know if you guys don't tell him?”

The chieftain had spent three whole days coming up with the prescription. In fact, the chieftain had told them that if Xin Qing were not cured after a month of taking the prescription, she would most likely have to live with her condition for the rest of her life. Those words had eased the burden in all of their hearts; they all feared that if Xin Qing's conditions persisted, she would have to live under Tang Shuang's control for the rest of her life.

At the same time, Xin Qing discovered that her headaches had worsened. In the past, she would suffer a single bout of headache about once every three months. Now, the headaches would come every month. When Ah Che told Ying Qingcang the news, Ying Qingcang nearly forced Tang Shuang to give Xin Qing another healing session.

”Young Master, I still can't get in touch with Young Master Shen. Shall we hire the bounty hunters to look for him in the mountains?” Ah Nan would try to contact Young Master Shen a few times every day, but it had been complete radio silence so far.

It had already been days since Ying Qingcang slept. He had spent every night in his study for the past few days, doing research. He had even taken a trip back to England just to see if there were any hints from the Ancestral Behest. Ying Qingcang had never been one to believe in such things, though admittedly, even he was hoping for a miracle right now. As long as Xin Qing could be cured, he was willing to believe in anything.

”Boss Wan had already sent his men over,” Ying Qingcang said, leaning against the backrest of his chair, holding his forehead in his palm. ”Have you asked the doctor when she is expected to deliver?”

”I did. The doctor said it is perfectly possible for a 7-month premature baby to survive in an incubator, but only if the baby is in good health condition in the first place. However, even if the baby does survive the incubator, the child will inevitably have a weak body later on in life. The child will be very prone to illness.” Ah Nan paused in thought. Then, he added, ”I think it should be alright. We'll just feed the child with a lot of nourishing herbs when the time comes.”

Ying Qingcang gave Ah Nan a glance. ”It's only been 3 months now. Still, 4 more months to go before we can act. We'll have to arrange Tang Shuang's accident and then use that as an excuse to perform a C-section to deliver the baby.”

”I still think we should wait until Young Master Shen's return before we make any decisions,” said Ah Nan. ”If he could find a way to cure the young miss, then we won't have to worry about anything.” Ah Nan knew what it was that Ying Qingcang had in mind: Ying Qingcang wanted Tang Shuang to die on the operating table. But they could not afford to let Tang Shuang die if there was no way to cure Xin Qing's condition.

Some time in the middle of their conversation, they receive a call from Boss Wan.

”Ah Cang, I've found Young Master Shen, and he has the prescription. I've already sent out a chopper to get him.”

Finally, the frown that had persisted between Ying Qingcang's brow for the past few days eased. ”That's wonderful...” Ying Qingcang said, holding a hand to his chest. ”Are we still going along with the original plan and hand the prescription to your wife?”

Boss Wan had mentioned before about letting Chen Huan be the one to synthesize the drug for Xin Qing. Ying Qingcang had agreed, of course. He knew about Chen Huan's credentials. Many would kill for such an opportunity.

”Yeah, that's why I've also sent a jet to New York. Huanhuan is there right now.”

Ying Qingcang suddenly felt gross. ”Man, this Boss Wan. Didn't he notice how gentle he had been when he mentioned the two words 'Huanhuan'?”

Beside Ying Qingcang, Ah Nan curled his lips. ”You have no right to be grossed out,” he thought. ”You sound even more disgusting when you talk about the young miss.”

Meanwhile, Xin Qing had received the news from Ah Che. When she did, she was so happy that she picked up Ah Sha and gave her a few kisses.

”Aunt Qing, you shouldn't kiss Ah Sha so much,” Xunxun grumbled beside her.

”Um... Why?” Xin Qing stammered. She would always feel overwhelming pressure whenever she faced Xunxun. Actually, scratch that. She figured anyone would feel some amount of pressure when facing that kid. Who would want to be having a conversation with a kid with such a high IQ? The kid could make anyone look like a fool if they were not paying attention.

Xunxun rubbed Ah Sha's tiny face with his hand. ”Ah Sha will be my wife in the future. How could I just let anyone kiss her?”

”But I'm her mother! Am I just 'anyone'?” Xin Qing thought indignantly. ”Plus, you've said it yourself that it's a thing of the future. She still isn't your wife right now. Even if she did become your wife in the future, she's still my daughter! Technically, you should call me 'mother' too!”

Of course, she never did voice out those thoughts. If she did, Xunxun could probably rebut her with ten different arguments. She might even have to apologize to the kid in the end. Xin Qing rested her gaze upon Ah Sha. ”Oh, my daughter! You have to expand your mind, okay? That way, you can get revenge for your mother in the future. Otherwise, you'll also be bullied by this brat after you marry him, and that's just too pathetic!”

Ah Sha's brain had been developing well. In a few years, she would be able to reach her mind's full potential. Too bad her emotional intelligence was rather stunted. She was destined to be bullied by Xunxun for the rest of her life...

After passing the prescription to Chen Huan, Young Master Shen ordered someone to take Zhang Mi, Chen Ming, and Li Xiaoru to France so that they could meet up with Xin Qing. He himself would return to China and meet up with his subordinates. That was how Young Master Shen ended up appearing in S City's airport like a boss.

Zhang Mi was laughing and crying at the same time when she saw Xin Qing.

”Ah Qing!” Zhang Mi was sobbing. ”I nearly died inside that mountain, you know? I was nearly bitten by a snake. I was so close to not being able to see you again!”

Chen Ming smirked. ”I think it was Young Master Shen who was bitten by a snake. You just had a fever.”

”Haha!” Xin Qing pushed Zhang Mi away and moved to hug Chen Ming. ”That's good to know. Everything's good as long as you guys are alright!”

Chen Ming patted Xin Qing's back. ”It will be! We'll all be fine. Your condition will be cured too. Everything will be okay!”

When she saw Li Xiaoru standing quietly on one side, Xin Qing pointed surreptitiously at her. Taking the hint, Chen Ming released Xin Qing and drew Li Xiaoru into his arms instead. ”We're together now,” he said. ”We'll plan a wedding after you've fully recovered!”
