Chapter 834: How Much Did You Hear?!
The wall lamps in the corridor shone brightly and shone on Jiang Xuecheng’s face, making his silhouette even more distinct.
This face was no different from the man in the nightmare just now.
Su Wan thought of what had happened in the nightmare, and a strange bitterness appeared between her lips and her teeth.
She clearly knew that it was not true, but Su Wan still felt her heart palpitate.
Because she knew, subconsciously, how much she cared about Jiang Xuecheng, how much she was afraid of losing the love that Jiang Xuecheng had for her.
Such a disease came too suddenly, and it was enough to test every nerve in both of them.
The most frightening thing was the unknown.
She didn’t know if she could recover, and how long could she and Jiang Xuecheng live in fear and trepidation.
Such a life was not fair to Jiang Xuecheng.
…
Su Wan did not want Jiang Xuecheng to feel sorry for her. However, if she really lost him like she had in her nightmare, she would be doomed.
Su Wan blinked. A teardrop flowed down her cheek and fell onto the back of her hand.
It was shockingly hot.
The two people in the corridor clearly did not notice that Su Wan was eavesdropping.
Su Wan heard that Jiang Xuecheng’s thin lips were pursed into a straight line. However, when he opened his mouth, his voice was tinged with a trace of urgency that she did not notice.
“Doctor Li, you said that the formula to alleviate the CHK Virus No.3 must have the ingredients of Dragon’s Blood. Then, if I use my blood, is it possible to develop a medicine that can cure the root of the problem?”
Doctor Li frowned slightly. His expression clearly showed that he was in a difficult position.
“Your Highness, right now, we are only copying the antidote given by the high priest, and the process has only reached halfway.”
Doctor Li
“If you want to cure the virus in Miss Su’s body, the amount of research work will definitely be greater, and the blood drawn will definitely be more. If you lose too much blood in a short period of time, your body will not be able to hold on.”
When Su Wan heard this, there was a loud bang in her head, as if a thunder had exploded!
She could not help but quiver.
Could it be that the medicine she drank every day contained Jiang Xuecheng’s blood?!
Su Wan recalled the faint smell of rust in the medicinal soup, and her fingers could not help but clench a little.
What she drank… was the blood of Jiang Xuecheng…
Then how much blood did this man have to draw for her every day?!
How much would it consume his body?!
No wonder she had noticed that Jiang Xuecheng was not in good spirits recently. She had thought that Jiang Xuecheng was worried about how to break off their marriage to Diya.
Now, it seemed that it was because his body was losing a portion of his blood every day?
Su Wan subconsciously trembled. She lost her balance and almost fell forward.
It just so happened that Jiang Xuecheng and Doctor Li were silent for a short while. Su Wan’s voice was like a tree branch that had been crushed by snow. Although it was neither light nor heavy, it was loud enough to be heard.
Realizing that she was eavesdropping, Su Wan’s expression suddenly changed. She was about to hide behind the door to the side in time, but it was already too late.
“Who–”
Jiang Xuecheng and Doctor Li turned around at the same time. Doctor Li’s face was full of shock, but Jiang Xuecheng was solemn!
They had already dismissed all the people in advance and ordered them not to come up to this floor.
At this moment, besides the two of them, there was only one other person on this floor.
That was Su Wan, who was supposed to be taking a nap!
A stern look flashed across Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome face, along with a faint trace of fear.
He quickly walked over to where the voice came from.
Su Wan’s body was tightly pressed against the wall. When she saw Jiang Xuecheng walking over, she could not help but s.h.i.+ver.
She knew that Jiang Xuecheng did not want her to know about these things, but how could she not be curious!
And once she had some inside information, how could she not be worried?
…
“Wan Wan! You–”
Jiang Xuecheng quickly found Su Wan.
He looked at Su Wan in disbelief. His eyes were filled with pain and indescribable anger.
He thought that Su Wan had fallen asleep. He even deliberately put some incense in her room to help her sleep, hoping that she would not wake up midway. But why did Su Wan wake up…
Knowing those things would not be of any benefit to Su Wan’s current condition. It would only accelerate Su Wan’s fear!
After all, no one could be heartless after knowing that they had a terminal illness!
Wasn’t CHK Virus No.3 an incurable disease to Su Wan without the development of a cure?!
…
Jiang Xuecheng’s phoenix-like eyes were dark and deep.
“How much did you hear?!”
How long had Su Wan been awake? What did she know?
Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes were locked on Su Wan, and his voice sounded like he was gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth.
The information that he had tried to hide, the things that he would rather hurt his body for than make Su Wan worry, was finally exposed!
What could he say?!
Su Wan could naturally hear the anger in Jiang Xuecheng’s voice.
Since the two of them had known each other, Su Wan had never seen Jiang Xuecheng so angry at her.
Su Wan’s heart ached.
She raised her face and looked at Jiang Xuecheng with her red almond-shaped eyes. There were tears on her face.
“I just came here. I didn’t hear much, but I know more or less…”
Jiang Xuecheng was really angry. However, when he saw Su Wan’s fragile look, all the anger in his heart was completely extinguished as if a layer of ice water had been poured over her.
He could not bear to see Su Wan cry.
Jiang Xuecheng’s vision darkened when he heard this. All his previous efforts had been to hide it from Su Wan, but now, it seemed to have become a joke.
Why was this woman so stubborn?
She would rather smash her head and bleed to find out the truth?
However, the truth was often more hurtful than imagined.
Moreover, the high priest and Doctor Li had said that the most important thing for people who were infected with CHK Virus No.3 was to maintain an optimistic att.i.tude.
Otherwise, they would sooner or later fall into depression and even self-harm or even commit suicide!
Jiang Xuecheng’s face was covered in dark clouds. He took a deep breath, but he still could not help but punch the wall hard!
All his previous efforts were in vain!
Su Wan was shocked when she saw Jiang Xuecheng punch the wall with his own fist!
After all, Jiang Xuecheng’s hand was made of human flesh. When it collided with the thick wall, Jiang Xuecheng’s hand was soon stained with blood.
Like a red plum blossom, it fell to the ground bit by bit.
Su Wan quickly stood up and yelled at Jiang Xuecheng in exasperation.
“Are you stupid? Why are you hammering on the wall? Your hand is bleeding…”
Su Wan Wanted to touch Jiang Xuecheng’s wrist, but Jiang Xuecheng suddenly avoided her.
“It’s just a small injury. It won’t kill me.”
Won’t kill me?!
Su Wan’s throat choked. She suddenly felt that Jiang Xuecheng’s att.i.tude made her feel very uncomfortable.
Jiang Xuecheng stared at Su Wan. His dark eyes were like a vortex, trying to suck Su Wan in.
“Answer me first. When I was talking to the high priest in the gla.s.s room in the Sky Garden, were you standing outside?”
