Chapter 324: Chapter 324: Gentleman on the Beams, Stealing Fragrance and Purloining Jade!

They’ve already met the parents today!

Next step, isn’t it time to prepare for the wedding and get the certificates...

The image of them walking into a church together was already playing out in Li Lingyang’s mind. He was so furious his blood was boiling, yet he felt utterly powerless.

"I was obviously with her first..."

Special Assistant Xu could tell his boss was upset deep down. "President Li, I have an idea, something that could let you see Lady Ning and the kids..."

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Li Lingyang regained a sliver of composure, turned his gaze, and shot a sharp look.

"What idea?"

Special Assistant Xu leaned in close, lowered his voice, and shared his plan.

When Li Lingyang finished listening, his face turned completely dark. "I’ve got to use that kind of method just to see my own wife and kids?"

"Former wife,"

Special Assistant Xu corrected him with a reminder, "President Li, you and Lady Ning divorced five years ago, and it was you who initiated it."

"..." Another stab to Li Lingyang’s chest. "Are you asking for death?"

Special Assistant Xu shivered but braced himself and said boldly, "Right now, this is the most appropriate way. Just tell me, are you seeing them or not?"

Li Lingyang’s brow twitched hard twice. "See them!"

...

After the meal, Ning Yichu prepared to take the kids back to the hospital.

Shen Zilan noticed and immediately smiled broadly, urging, "Ayou, don’t worry about me. You go ahead and take Chu Chu and Chen Bao back. I can head home on my own!"

Ning Yichu felt apologetic. "Auntie, the hospital is just a few steps away from here. Chen Bao and I can walk back ourselves."

"Yes, Grandma Mo. You’re getting older, and earlier the bodyguard accidentally hurt you. It’s better if Uncle Mo takes you home—that would make us feel more at ease..."

Shen Zilan wanted to use this opportunity to foster some fondness between her son and Yichu.

But her son’s slightly furrowed brows seemed like he was displeased with her pushiness.

"Alright then, if you need anything, call either me or Ayou anytime."

Mo Baiyou glanced at his tiny elder and said nothing more.

Right now, he and Chu Chu had plenty of time—there was no rush...

As Mo Baiyou went off to get the car, Chen Bao’s bright, curious eyes darted about mischievously. She quietly followed him over and, in her sweet and timid voice, asked, "Uncle Mo, may I ask you something?"

Mo Baiyou’s lips curved faintly. "Go ahead."

Chen Bao cautiously asked, "How’s Herman doing lately?"

"Her?" Mo Baiyou seemed puzzled, and his expression turned slightly wary. "Did she come looking for you all after the banquet ended?"

Chen Bao pursed her pink lips. It seemed Uncle Mo didn’t know about Herman’s apology afterward...

Could it be that Herman was threatened by her scumbag dad?

That scumbag dad not only knew their situation in Country A but seemed aware of everything that happened...

Could it be that he’s lurking somewhere watching them right now?

How creepy...

Chen Bao twitched and feigned innocence. "Nope, I just noticed she seemed really into you at the banquet and wanted to ask about your progress with her."

Mo Baiyou felt embarrassed, humiliated even, hearing his name being mentioned together with Herman’s from Chen Bao’s mouth.

"She and I aren’t even friends, let alone anything else."

"I see..." Chen Bao appeared thoughtful. "It’s getting late. Uncle Mo, hurry up and take Grandma Mo back. Bye!"

After speaking, she trotted off on her tiny legs to catch up with Ning Yichu.

Mo Baiyou waited until the little one was far away before realizing something was off.

If Chen Bao was simply nosy about his and Herman’s relationship, why sneak around?

Why deliberately keep it from Chu Chu?

His gaze darkened, an icy sharpness settling in his features. He sent out a quick text. "Check if Herman’s been to Charité Hospital recently."

...

When Ning Yichu and Chen Bao returned to the hospital room, Ningning was already asleep.

Her long lashes were like little fans casting shadows, her face still pale, but her temperature had lowered—she wasn’t feverish anymore.

Ning Yichu’s eyes brimmed with deep affection and concern. Thinking of the medicine Shen Zilan had brought earlier, her palm tightened around it...

"Chen Bao, stay here and look after your sister. Mommy needs to step out for a bit. I’ll be back soon."

"Got it, Mommy!"

After earning her son’s agreement, Ning Yichu headed straight for the office of the doctor overseeing Ningning’s care.

"Dr. John, could you check if these two bottles of medicine are suitable for Ningning’s condition?"

Even though Shen Zilan was Mo Baiyou’s mother, when it came to her daughter’s health, Ning Yichu had to be cautious.

Dr. John, ever diligent, took the medicine. He brought it alongside his interns to the lab to conduct a meticulous analysis of its contents.

Ning Yichu stood outside the hallway, waiting.

After what felt like forever, the lab door finally opened.

Dr. John came out, his tone excited. "Lady Ning, where did you get this medicine?"

Ning Yichu’s heart tightened. "Why? Is it effective?"

Dr. John exclaimed with fervor, "Our research shows these medications contain unique components that can significantly suppress white blood cell production—making them ideal for Ningning’s condition!"

"Really?"

Ning Yichu hadn’t expected the medicines Shen Zilan brought to be so potent.

"Can they be incorporated directly into Ningning’s treatment plan?"

"Absolutely!"

This was Dr. John’s first encounter with such rare, extraordinary pharmaceuticals. His enthusiasm was so intense, his hands trembled. "I’ll introduce them into tonight’s therapy and monitor Ningning’s response. Once she adapts, we’ll gradually increase the dosage!"

"Alright."

"..."

The sun set and Reykjavik gradually dimmed.

After dinner, Dr. John introduced a small amount of the special medicine into Ningning’s treatment.

The screen pulsed with densely packed green data.

Ning Yichu held her breath, afraid to breathe too loudly.

It wasn’t until all the baseline indicators showed no abnormalities that Dr. John finally felt his heart settle.

"Lady Ning, Ningning’s body isn’t rejecting the special medicine. Her white blood cell count has stabilized and isn’t rising. Tomorrow, I’ll increase the dosage. Following this trajectory, the chances of Ningning relapsing will decrease significantly!"

Waves of emotion surged inside Ning Yichu, overshadowing all the gloom she’d harbored in recent days. Warm tears welled up in her eyes. "Thank you! Then I’ll leave the next steps of Ningning’s treatment to you..."

Dr. John shook his head. "I’ve only played a small part. The person you should truly thank is whoever gave you the special medicine."

Mo Baiyou’s mother... Shen Zilan!

Who knows how many favors she must have called in to acquire such rare medicine...

Ning Yichu decided to pick out some thoughtful gifts and pay her a visit tomorrow.

Dr. John left with his interns and staff.

"My little Ningning, the doctor said just a few more days of this medicine, and you’ll completely recover." Ning Yichu looked at her daughter on the bed, her smile radiant.

Ningning was thrilled too, knowing her mommy and brother wouldn’t have to worry about her anymore.

"Mommy, once I’m fully better, I want to go to all the places we planned with brother and have so much fun! And eat loads of yummy food!"

Ning Yichu chuckled and shook her head, amused. "Alright, wherever you want to go, your brother and I will take you."

In Ningning’s mind, she was already imagining the scenes, bubbling with excitement and anticipation. "I wish I could leave the hospital quickly..."

"Rest well, darling. Once the medicine takes full effect, you’ll recover in no time." Chen Bao comforted her in turn.

"Mmm!"

The night grew late, and Ning Yichu lay alongside her daughter, telling her fairy tales and soothing her gently into slumber.

Still recuperating, it wasn’t long before Ningning drifted into dreamland.

Ning Yichu leaned down and kissed her daughter’s forehead lovingly, then laid beside her.

In the stillness of the night, the VIP hospital room’s balcony window was cautiously pushed open from outside.

A tall figure dressed in black slipped inside with effortless ease, landing silently on the floor—

The intruder was none other than Li Lingyang!
