Chapter 722: Chapter 722

Poisoned?

Yes, he had indeed been poisoned by Xu Qianli, and he couldn’t bear to leave him for the rest of his life.

Even if Xu Qianli couldn’t have children, he wouldn’t leave her.

Feeling Ding Meixin’s tenderness, Xu Qianli was deeply moved and pulled her over, "Meixin, having a girlfriend like you is so wonderful. I will definitely treasure you."

Ding Meixin hugged Xu Qianli, burying her face in his chest, feeling his love and filled with sweetness, whispered softly, "I will also treasure you, I love you, and I want to be with you for a lifetime."

Nearby, Ye Qingmei quickly rubbed her arms.

"Yuck, so mushy. You two are really mushy, it’s nauseating!"

"Hmph, isn’t it just being in love? Why be so shameless?"

"Sis, brother-in-law, I bow down to you two. Go ahead and be sweet, I’m leaving."

With those words, Ye Qingmei ran out and stopped others from coming near, "Alright, give them some space."

Alone now, Xu Qianli and Ding Meixin’s feelings gradually intensified, and both knew they couldn’t be apart from each other in this lifetime.

Their affection was at its peak when Xu Qianli’s phone rang.

He didn’t really want to answer, but when he checked, he saw it was a call from Old Madam Bai, so he quickly picked up, "Hello, Grandma, are you well?"

"Xu Qian, Mu Qing has already told me about your situation."

"Regarding Jiulong Water, there indeed are such side effects, but don’t worry about it. Since you’ve just taken Jiulong Water and the medicine’s power is still volatile, just wait a year for it to stabilize, and you should be able to recover."

"In any case, don’t worry too much about having children. I can see that you’re destined to have many descendants."

Hearing Old Madam Bai speak so reassuringly, Xu Qianli felt at ease, "So that’s the case. I was needlessly alarmed. Thank you for telling me, Grandma, otherwise I’d definitely be losing sleep over this for days."

"What for thanks? It was my neglect in the first place."

"By the way, let me talk to you about Mu Qing."

"She may seem hostile towards you on the surface, but I can tell that she has had feelings for you for a long time, otherwise she wouldn’t target you like that."

"Every girl expresses love differently. Some are clingy and compliant, while others pretend to be indifferent and act proudly—the latter describes Mu Qing. Just be patient with her."

"She’s a pitiable child, having lost her parents young and brought up solely by me, which has led to her reserved and restrained personality. She rarely reveals her thoughts easily, but I can see that she’s serious about you."

"Put in more effort and win her over soon. Then let her bear your children."

"All right, there’s nothing more to say for now, goodbye."

The call ended, and Xu Qianli’s gaze fell on Ding Meixin, "Meixin, that was Old Madam Bai from the Bai Family, the grandma of Bai Yanran and Bai Jinse, whom I’ve mentioned to you before."

Ding Meixin gave Xu Qianli a smile, "I know, the head of our country’s leading martial arts family. I thought she would be scary, but she spoke so kindly."

Xu Qianli said, "Yes, she really has been very good to me. Thanks to her, I’m still alive. The Bai Family has shown me great kindness!"

Recalling several past dangers, had it not been for the Bai Family’s intervention, she might have lost her life long ago.

Hearing this, Ding Meixin gripped Xu Qianli’s hand tightly, "Director Xu, if the political path is too dangerous, maybe you shouldn’t push yourself so hard."

"Meixin, I know you’re concerned about me, but some things aren’t as simple as just deciding to let go."

"If I chose to give up everything now, I’d have no hope left in this life. No matter how difficult, I have to fight and move forward, overcoming any obstacles."

"You don’t have to worry too much, I have you, the Ye Family, the Bai Family, and others. It won’t be a problem."

"I promise you, I’ll be fine. And after a year, we’ll get started on having that baby."

A year’s time wasn’t long for Xu Qianli—just enough to complete his term in Cailin County. It would probably fly by in the blink of an eye.

Ding Meixin said, "Okay, I believe in you. Director Xu, you’re invincible; nothing can hold you back. I trust you won’t have any problems. As for kids, we can talk about that later."

As they were chatting, the door suddenly opened, and Ye Qingmei was the first to rush in.

"Sister, brother-in-law, we overheard your conversation just now. It’s so good to hear you’ll recover in a year. Really, it’s just wonderful."

Ye Qingmei was ecstatic. Just learning that they could use cryopreservation to lower viability for artificial insemination was joyous enough.

Now to know they could even skip that step and Xu Qianli could return to normal in a year was truly fantastic.

As Ye Qingmei finished speaking, Anna burst out excitedly, "Mr. Xu, your sperm situation is really unique and has tremendous research value. If possible, I’d like to collect it a few more times for study. I hope you won’t be stingy about it. Of course, I can offer you compensation and won’t leave you shortchanged."

"This... Isn’t this inappropriate?"

Xu Qianli glanced down and thought to himself, with so many beauties to take care of, he already wasn’t enough. Why would he give anything to her?

Anna said, "But what if you don’t recover after a year? You would still need my help. So, it’s better you cooperate fully without being stingy. Otherwise, I will go public with your situation, and there will be no shortage of medical institutions looking for you; they’ll annoy you to death!"

To make Xu Qianli agree, Anna even resorted to threats.

Qin Bijun said meekly, "Dr. Ai, isn’t this going a bit too far?"

Anna stood her ground, "Madam, it’s not too far at all. You have no idea how valuable his sperm is. If I don’t thoroughly research it, I won’t be able to sleep or eat. No matter what, I won’t compromise. He must agree!"

Xu Qianli was impressed, this woman was incredibly authoritative, speaking of such outrageous demands so confidently and boldly.

Liu Qian said, "I’ll agree on his behalf."

While speaking, Liu Qian gave a wink to Ding Meixin and Ge Pingping.

The two women caught on quickly, giggling. It seemed they were planning to rope Anna in. Considering the doctor was indeed beautiful, letting her share the burden wasn’t such a bad idea, and she’d have her work cut out for her in the future.

Anna had no idea what schemes the three women were concocting; she was simply too excited, already dreaming about her future research.

Xu Qianli couldn’t refuse even if he wanted to. He just had to accept it, hoping Anna would bother him less in the future—once a month, no, perhaps once every half a year, or even once a year would be best.

Anna slid out, quickly returning with a special portable cryopreservation device, "Alright, let’s start the first collection now. It’s a bit of trouble for you, Miss Ye, but please bear with it."

Are they starting this now?

Ding Meixin couldn’t be more speechless. Where do you find such an impatient doctor? Was this really necessary?
