Chapter 393: No Miracles
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Sang Qianqian’s heart sank.
Yin Shuhui couldn’t believe it no matter what. She immediately grabbed the examination tools next to her and re-examined him.
The results were still the same!
“What’s going on?”
She was stunned. Only she and Xu Meixi were there last night, while Jian Zheng and his men were guarding outside. No one else came inside the ward.
Moreover, she and Xu Meixi had strictly followed Sang Qianqian’s instructions. Other than doing some routine checks on Cui Yi, they did not do anything else. So how could Cui Yi have died so suddenly?
Yin Shuhui really couldn’t understand.
Sang Qianqian was also puzzled.
According to Professor Fu’er’s notes, the patient’s heartbeat had begun to recover, which meant that he was about to regain consciousness. This should have been a matter of course.
However, his heartbeat had stopped again, and he had lost all signs of life. This meant that Cui Yi was no better than an actual dead person…
Outside the door, Jian Zheng had already heard everything Sang Qianqian and Xu Meixi had said.
His head buzzed. “Can Cui Yi still wake up?”
Sang Qianqian tried to hide her disappointment. “Let’s wait a little longer. Maybe there will be a miracle.”
She knew that the probability of him waking up was almost zero, but she still wanted to try again.
Yin Shuhui looked at Sang Qianqian with a complicated expression. “Then 1 won’t leave. I’ll wait with you.”
One hour, two hours, three hours…
After a while, the dead man on the hospital bed was covered in a layer of gray, and his body became even colder and stiffer. There was no longer any possibility of a miracle.

Shen Hanyu came to the hospital after hearing about Cui Yi’s death.
He was unexpectedly calm. Seeing that Sang Qianqian was a little down, he comforted her instead. “It’s okay. You’ve already done your best.”
Sang Qianqian was very unhappy. “But Cui Yi knows who the person who wanted to save him is. If he dies, we won’t be able to find out anything.”
“Are you looking down on your husband?”
“Cui Yi may be dead,” Shen Hanyu said gently. “But that person is still alive. There will always be clues.”
Sang Qianqian sighed softly. “That’s true, but…”
“No buts.”
Shen Hanyu pinched her cheek. “Let’s call it a day. Don’t think about it anymore.”
How could Sang Qianqian not want to?
She racked her brain but couldn’t figure out why a person who was about to wake up would suddenly die.
Firstly, there was no such record in Professor Fu’er’s notes. Secondly, Cui Yi’s situation was indeed strange.
Even if it was part of the principle of medical science, she should also be able to find out.
Sang Qianqian had already decided her next step in her heart. However, she still had to seek consent from Cui Yi’s family…
On the other end, Shen Hanyu turned around and said to Jian Zheng, “Go to the Xie family later and send Cui Ke back.”
“Send him back just like that?”
Jian Zheng felt indignant. “President Shen, 1 have a feeling that Chui Ke might be pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. He’s playing dumb, but something’s running deep in his mind.”
Jian Zheng thought that he could get some key clues from Cui Yi, but in the end, this person died inexplicably.
If he hadn’t taken precautions in advance and guarded the door of the ward all night last night, not even a mosquito could fly in, he would have suspected that Cui Yi’s death was suspicious.
In the past two days, he had ordered people to lock Cui Ke up. In fact, he had not been idle. He had used all sorts of methods to provoke the man, but he had found nothing.
Cui Ke was a really hot-tempered person. He never stopped cursing and saying all kinds of harsh words.
On the surface, this shrewd person seemed to pale in comparison to his brother Cui Yi, to the point where he wouldn’t be worth mentioning at all.
However, Jian Zheng was never afraid of speculating about people with the worst intentions. He had never removed his suspicion toward Cui Ke.
“Not to that extent.”
Shen Hanyu said calmly, “You said that Cui Ke is a scheming person, but aren’t you just flattering him at that point?”
When Ruan Cheng was still alive, Shen Hanyu had interacted with Cui Ke before.
This person’s thoughts were all on the surface, and he could test the depth of his thoughts in three sentences.
If he had any brains, he would not have been sent abroad by Ruan Cheng to take care of Ruan Xiaodie with a group of bodyguards.
If Xie Shi’an had not cared about their old relationship, he would have been dismissed overseas like the bodyguards.
Cui Yi probably knew about his brother’s temper, so he didn’t tell Cui Ke anything.
“But Cui Ke was in a hurry to pick up Cui Yi that day, so he’s still a suspect…”
“I promised Xie Shi’an that 1 would return Cui Yi to him after 1 confirmed his death.”
Shen Hanyu interrupted him. “You just have to give Cui Yi to him.”
“Yes.” Jian Zheng could only agree.
“I’ll go with Jian Zheng.”
Sang Qianqian continued, “It just so happens that 1 have to give Xiaodie a follow-up treatment today.”
It was also a good time to have a good chat with Xie Shi’an and Cui Ke.

In the evening, at the Xie residence.
Xie Shi’an had received Sang Qianqian’s call in the morning and knew about Cui Yi’s situation.
Although a little disappointed, he couldn’t do anything as things have come to this.
Cui Ke didn’t have any hope at all. In his opinion, his brother had died in the fire three days ago. Sang Qianqian’s so-called “observation for three days” was just nonsense.
“Young Master An, when will you bring my brother’s body back?”
Cui Ke asked Xie Shi’an when he saw him, “My brother has suffered so much. He can’t just stay in that morgue forever.”
“I’m afraid we’ll have to wait another two days.”
Xie Shian pondered for a moment before saying, “Your brother… The cause of his death is a little strange. Qianqian and I have discussed it and we want to hire a specialized forensic inst.i.tution to do a DNA test on your brother.”
“What?”
Cui Ke jumped up in fright. “My brother suffered so much when he was alive. Why would he have to suffer even in death? 1 don’t agree with this!”
Xie Shi’an said, “Your brother’s heartbeat and pulse had recovered last night, but he suddenly died this morning. The forensic doctor might be able to find something.”
“Young Master An, don’t be bewitched by that woman!”
Ci Ke was furious. He glared at Sang Qianqian as he said, “She’s always trying to scare people. My brother is dead, but she insists that he’s still alive. Now that he’s gone, she says that there’s something fishy going on. It must be because of that photo incident. Shen Hanyu couldn’t get anything out of my brother, so she vented all her anger on him. She won’t let him off even after he’s dead!”
Sang Qianqian was a little speechless. “Cui Ke, I’m not as bad as you make me out to be.”
“1 don’t care what you do. No matter what, I won’t agree to my brother being dissected!”
Chui Ke was furious. He pointed at her and said, “Young Master An, don’t trust this woman anymore. Have you forgotten how she played you like a fool in the past? She doesn’t have good intentions at all!”
“What nonsense are you spouting?”
Xie Shian’s face darkened as he handed Cui Yi’s medical record to Cui Ke. “Look at your brother’s medical records yourself and tell me whether he should be autopsied or not!”
Cui Ke was a little confused and was about to say something.
Suddenly, a crisp voice came from the door of the living room.. “Sister Qianqian!”
