âDavid was carrying a certain infectious virus and needed to be taken away for questioning?â Kang Ruicheng did not know if he was going to get angry or sneer. âAre you kidding?â
David came from country S. If he had really carried the virus with him, he would have been stopped at the customs of country S. How could he be discovered only when he arrived in the country?
This was clearly an excuse!
Ah Jin said helplessly, âWe couldnât do anything about it since the personnel of the Bureau of Epidemic Prevention said so. The police also arrived, and we cannot openly go against the police at the airport.â
Kang Ruicheng vaguely felt that this was a well-designed conspiracy.
He only wanted to know who it was.
Thinking of this, Kang Ruicheng felt a surge of great fury from the bottom of his heart, which almost burned up the mobile phone in his hand.
After a long while, Kang Ruicheng added, âYou come back first, and Iâll send someone to the Bureau of Epidemic Prevention to inquire about it.â
Kang Ruicheng hung up the phone with an extremely gloomy face.
Mumu was too familiar with Kang Ruichengâs look. He frowned and ran over. âDaddy, whatâs wrong?â
For a moment, Kang Ruicheng did not know how to reply to Mumu.
In this house, only Mumu and he hoped that Xu Youning could recover, so Mumu hoped that the doctor would come as soon as possible.
If he told the little boy that something had also happened to the last doctor, he would be very disappointed, wouldnât he?
Mumu was a boy, so it was inevitable that he would encounter some disappointments in life.
But this time, Kang Ruicheng did not want to disappoint Mumu, because just like Mumu, he hoped that Xu Youning could receive the best treatment.
In the end, his hopes were dashed.
With that in mind, Kang Ruicheng slowly clenched his hands into fists.
He had his suspicions when the two doctors from country A were intercepted yesterday, but he did not say anything as he had no evidence.
David did not manage to leave the airport smoothly today, which confirmed his suspicion.
Someone was causing trouble behind the scenes to deliberately prevent doctors from examining Xu Youning!
He would find out the truth!
Kang Ruicheng called one of his men and ordered, âGo to the Bureau of Epidemic Prevention and follow up on Davidâs case. Report to me as soon as possible if there is any progress!â
âYes!â
With a sense of urgency, the man left the old house quickly.
Mumu seemed to have guessed what was going on. He blinked and his eyes were filled with grievance. âDaddy, no doctor again?â
The word âagainâ almost pierced through Kang Ruichengâs heart.
Kang Ruicheng almost smashed his mobile phone. After a while, he looked at Mumu and said, âDr. David ran into a slight problem, but Daddy will solve it. Believe in Daddy, okay?â
Mumu looked down to hide the boundless disappointment and replied with an âOhâ.
Obviously, he did not have any hopes in Kang Ruicheng anymore.
Seeing Mumuâs look, Kang Ruicheng was more embarrassed than sad. He had never thought that Mumu would be disappointed in him one day.
At this moment, a teardrop dripped down from Mumuâs face, splashed on the old dark wooden floor, and silently spread out on the ground, like something breaking into pieces.
Kang Ruicheng clenched his fists even tighter.
In contrast, Xu Youning seemed to be accustomed to the situation, so she was much calmer.
Xu Youning walked over and touched Mumuâs face with a smile. âWell, donât cry.â
But Xu Youningâs comforting only made Mumu burst into tears. He leaned on Xu Youningâs shoulder and choked with sobs.
Xu Youning felt somewhat sad and greatly sorry at the same time.
Mumu would never know that the absence of David was equivalent to the solution to her trouble.
However, this little boy was crying in this manner, which was heartbreaking.
Xu Youning patted the little boy on the back and coaxed him for a long time before he finally stopped crying.
Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Youning, with a hint of doubt in his voice. âA Ning, what do you think of this?â
Xu Youning let go of Mumu and looked into Kang Ruichengâs eyes. Instead of answering him, she asked, âIs this a coincidence?â
Kang Ruicheng did not expect such a reaction from Xu Youning. He was a little surprised.
However, this seemed normal.
Because of her profession, Xu Youning was calmer than ordinary people in the face of any crisis.
Yesterday, she was already agitated when she heard for the first time that the doctors could not enter City A.
She heard the news today for the second time. According to her professional habits, she should calm down and analyze it.
Too many coincidences happened at the same time, so it had to be a well-planned conspiracy. Kang Ruicheng had long taught Xu Youning this.
Therefore, it was reasonable and normal for Xu Youning to realize that something was wrong and have her doubts.
Kang Ruicheng said slowly, âI think not.â
âI also think itâs not a coincidence. But only thinking about it does not work.â Xu Youning thought for a moment and said with a pleading look, âThereâs one thing I need your help with.â
Kang Ruicheng did not speak.
In fact, he could roughly guess what Xu Youning wanted him to help with.
As expected, Xu Youning said, âAlthough I donât know who it is, I think there must be someone behind the scene. I hope that you can help me find out who it is that doesnât want me to be treated.â
Kang Ruicheng held Xu Youningâs hands and said, âA Ning, even if you donât mention that, I will find it out.â
Xu Youning nodded and looked at him gratefully. âThank you.â
Kang Ruicheng carefully and affectionately held Xu Youningâs face, pressed his forehead against hers, and said, âNo matter who is trying to stop me behind the scenes, I will not let him get what he wants. A Ning, I will definitely get the best doctor to treat you. You will recover.â
Xu Youning closed her eyes, held Kang Ruichengâs hands with both hands, and expressed her gratitude in a silent way.
Kang Ruicheng would never know that she looked like this because she could not thank him anymore.
Kang Ruicheng was her enemy, and there was only one thing she should do to him. She should kill him.
No one would sincerely thank their enemies.
Not long after, Ah Jin came back from outside, panting and shouting, âBrother Cheng, I went to the Bureau of Epidemic Prevention. There is news!â
Kang Ruichengâs eyes darkened. âHowâs the result of Davidâs questioning?â
Ah Jin hesitated for a moment and said, âThe doctor of the Bureau of Epidemic Prevention has confirmed that David is indeed infected with the virus. Although the virus is not fatal, it is greatly infectious. The Bureau of Epidemic Prevention has isolated David for treatment and contacted the consulate of country S at the same time.â
The atmosphere in the old house became heavy because of Ah Jinâs words. For a moment, no one spoke.
Ah Jin took a deep breath and continued, âNow, Dr. David is faced with two consequences-to be sent back to country S for treatment, or to be treated here. In a word, David will need a long time before he can come out. Miss Xu... may not be able to wait for Dr. David.â
âNot be able to wait for Dr. David...â
What Kang Ruicheng was most afraid of now was that Xu Youning could not wait any longer.
Ah Jinâs words hit Kang Ruichengâs nerves directly.
Kang Ruicheng roared, âWhat did you say?!â
Ah Jin was obviously scared and his face turned pale, but he still said honestly, âBrother Cheng, we must face the facts!â
In fact, Xu Youningâs condition was very serious. If she was not treated in time, the countdown to her life span could start at any time.
Kang Ruicheng also knew that, but he did not want to face such a fact.
Ah Jin took the risk of being punished and continued, âBrother Cheng, someone is playing tricks on us behind the scenes. If the other party really has the ability to stop us, we donât have to insist on foreign doctors. Take Miss Xu to the local hospital first!â
Kang Ruicheng repeatedly clenched his fists and loosened them. Finally, he shouted, âFind out who is playing tricks behind the scenes first!â
âYes!â Ah Jin nodded. âI will find out right away!â
Ah Jin left the old house of the Kang family in a flash and began to investigate something that he knew about clearly.
Along the way, Ah Jin silently thought that he had done everything Mu Sijue had asked him to do, including advising Kang Ruicheng to take Xu Youning to the local hospital.
He wondered if Kang Ruicheng would follow Mu Sijueâs plan. It depended on whether Kang Ruicheng was willing to take his advice or not.
As for what Mu Sijue had arranged in the local hospital, Ah Jin did not know. He only knew that Mu Sijue was doing his best to protect Xu Youning.
As for Xu Youning, it was very likely that she knew nothing.
In the living room of the Kang familyâs old house.
The atmosphere in the old house had never been so heavy and depressing. Even Mumu, who had always been lively, lowered his head and was unwilling to speak.
Kang Ruicheng clenched his fists repeatedly. In the end, he just said, âA Ning, I will find out who is behind the scenes. In any case, I will definitely find a doctor to treat you. At worst, as Ah Jin said, we can go to the local hospital for a checkup first.â
For Xu Youning, there was no difference between the doctors from the local hospitals and the ones from abroad. They would all find that her child was still alive.
However, she could at least delay it if she saw a doctor in the local hospital.
While thinking, Xu Youning said as if nothing had happened, âIâm not in a hurry. Iâll do whatever you want me to do. Itâs up to you.â
Kang Ruicheng obviously did not believe Xu Youningâs words. âAre you really not in a hurry?â
Xu Youning smiled and said frankly, âI just want to know that who doesnât want me to see a doctor.â
Kang Ruicheng asked even more directly, âA Ning, do you suspect anyone?â
âOf course. In this world, there are a lot of people who want me to go to hell right away. But Mu Sijue is the only one who has the power to pull so many tricks.â Xu Youningâs smile gradually became cold. âIf itâs really Mu Sijue...â
Xu Youning did not go on.
If it was really Mu Sijue, things would turn complicated.
Kang Ruicheng stared at Xu Youning without blinking, and his eyes were as sharp as knives. âWhat if itâs Mu Sijue?â
Xu Youning looked indifferent and calm. She said with a faint smile, âIâll say it again. If Mu Sijue really wants me to die, I wonât let him go even as a ghost!â
Listening carefully, he could clearly hear the hatred in Xu Youningâs voice.
As a result, Kang Ruicheng did not suspect that Xu Youning was lying, and he naturally did not know what she was thinking...
