Chapter 984

“Lei, what’s the matter with you?”

Xavier noticed something wrong with Leia, so he quickly ran over and inquired about it.

“I’m… fine. It’s none of your business!”

She covered her belly and pushed him away, trying to act strong.

However, the excruciating pain was killing her. She was in so much pain that she almost burst into tears.

“Stop being stubborn. You don’t seem fine at all. And your face… your face…”

Xavier could not help but swallow slightly while looking at her face. He was flabbergasted.

“What’s wrong with my face?”

“No, nothing.”

Xavier tried to help her up again. “We’d better get to the hospital now. I’m afraid something bad might happen if we delay this.”

“You’re lying. There must be something wrong with my face.”

She was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat, and she could not even stand steadily.

She let Xavier support her before she took out her phone and checked her appearance. After that, she cried out involuntarily.

“Ah!”

She saw that her face, which was reflected by the phone screen, was deeply swollen. Even her eyes and lips were deformed.

“Don’t worry. I think it’s an allergic reaction. I’ll get you to the hospital now.”

He acted decisively. He ignored her wish and carried her to rush her to the nearest hospital. He did not even manage to inform Renee and the others.

When they arrived at the hospital, they went straight to the emergency. When the doctor saw Leia’s look, the doctor was shocked too.

“Oh gosh, why is your face so swollen?”

“Doctor, can I be saved? Am I dying?”

“You won’t die, but it’s too serious…”

When the doctor reached that point, the doctor inevitably glanced at Leia and nearly vomited. After that, the doctor worked hard to present a serious and professional front. “We’ll have to test the allergen first before we decide how to treat it.”

After testing, both Xavier and Leia sat in the corridor to wait for the result.

“Hmm, it’s over. My face is ruined. I look like a pig!”

Leia covered her face and cried piteously. “As expected, my brother’s inauspicious remark turns out to be true. I can’t get married for the rest of my life. No man will want to marry an ugly woman like me. I’m doomed!”

“It’s not that serious. When the result is out, you’ll get better after they prescribe the right medicine for you.”

He then patted her shoulders and said sarcastically, “What’s more, I think it’s pretty good if you look like a pig. How adorable! I like pigs the most.”

“Xavier, that’s enough. My face became like this, but you teased me. I’m going to beat you up!”

Consequently, she was deeply infuriated. Hence, she started hitting him and teaching him a lesson while her face was still red and swollen.

While they were quarreling and fighting, she bumped into a person with her back.

So, she turned around to notice a tall man in a white coat that looked quite refined and handsome. He even carried a gentle aura.

Leia immediately covered her face with her hands, feeling like hiding herself once she’d met the man’s gaze for a few seconds.

“Lei?”

The man in the white coat was unsure, so he addressed her tentatively.

When he noticed her reaction, he immediately affirmed it before he strode forward to catch up with her.

“No, that’s not me. You’re mistaken.”

While running, Leia waved her hands.

She wanted to find a thing to cover her face, but it was to no avail. Helplessly, she pulled Xavier over to block her face, fearing the man in the white coat would see her face.

It was because the man in the white coat was none other than the liar who played with her feelings. He was her first love and boyfriend, William, the top student in medical science.
