Chapter 41 - 41. Collapse... (1/2)

Qin ZiXuan didn't get a definite plan that could succeed even after a lot of simulations went through his mind so, he glared at the old man who was the reason for this while Qin Meilin rubbed her temples.

Qin Meilin knew that if she allowed Qin ZiXuan to even speak she will lose so, without letting him say anything in a flat voice she asked the old man to, ”continue..”

Getting his green signal, the doctor as if injected by chicken blood, spoke without a care of the world, ”I took his pulse just now. He appears to be alright but his body is not at it's best. I've asked him to take good care of his body but as you may already have suspected, he didn't take heed of my words. This case of infection is mainly due to his weakened immunity and the lack of rest to his body, it seems his sleep cycle is affected. Young Miss, I'll recommend you to keep him in a well-maintained diet so that he gets the proper nutrition”, he said looking at her and then turned to the man, ”Young Master this is the umpteenth time I'm saying this over the years, take good care of your health. Your body is not at it's best, to begin with... and if you keep doing this to yourself, you'll collapse one of these days. I won't be able to do anything for you then.”

The old man not noticing the cold glare directed on him by the said man continued to nag him a bit more before he felt odd about something.

He snapped back to reality and finally saw that the air around him has turned cold.

His instincts told him to be wary of Qin ZiXuan.

He didn't dare to look at him and only took a glimpse of the only person, who he knew could save him from this situation, the young miss of the family, only to see that her face was unusually pale.

Qin ZiXuan has been on the edge for a while now because of that old man.

He knew his body like the back of his hand and knew that his body was not at its peak for some years now, well, it was weak, to begin with, but it weakened a bit more in the last few years when he was too involved in work and....she was not with him.

Anyway, even though it was like that still, it was not at the stage of collapsing.

After Meilin came back, he fell ill only once in these last few months and that meant that his condition had improved by a lot and he knew that all he needed was her to be beside him and he will be alright!

He kept glaring at the old man because he knew that Meilin won't take it as easy as him, she will definitely fret and might even lecture him, of course, he didn't hate it when she did that because that only showed the love and care she had for him; what he was scared of was that she will start blaming herself once again.

He didn't want that to happen.

He could accept a broken Meilin but he didn't like those dead eyes of her plus when she got angry, she was too scary.

She acted like a teacher and was used to scold him for at least 3 hours, this has happened quite a few times over their years together and believe him, it was definitely not among the best of the experiences. He won't survive it ba.

He noticed that the doctor finally stopped speaking only to turn into a statue after taking a glance at her.

He immediately stiffened as a possibility of what might have happened passed through his mind, he slowly turned his head to take a look at her; she looked pale, paler than ever.

His eyes dilated and he finally noticed that something went wrong, that he had made a mistake.
