nZhou Xin smiled, “Since Ms. Qiao is down here now, let’s go eat in the dining room.”
nQiao Qing nodded.
nThe firefox hopped from Jun Yexuan to Qiao Qing’s shoulder and curled its tail around her arm.
n“Ack, ack, ack!”
nMy owner is explosively cool!
n…
nAfter everyone ate, Qiao Qing continued to read her books while Jun Yexuan dealt with his work.
nSince Qi Yunyan took care of the Qi Corporation’s day-to-day business, Qi Yusen was rather relaxed.
nWith the free time he had, he gathered different medical books and machinery for Qiao Qing. Somehow, he managed to build a library and a lab in Leng Yan’s castle.
nThere was a tight time restraint after all. Compared to these two guys, who would have to learn from 0 about medicine, Qiao Qing had studied for three years and was much more capable with new knowledge.
nThe boys had no use other than to cheer her on.
nAround noon, a headline trended in all the corporate and entertainment news.
n#confirmed! Mr. Leng Yan, the CEO of the Leng Corporation, is terminally ill and will soon be buried – Mother of the Leng family reveals.
nThe comment section exploded.
nWhen Zhou Xin saw the news, he almost gritted his teeth to pieces. He wanted to chop that woman to pieces.
nBut he didn’t have the energy to be angry after that.
nBecause the phones started to ring then. The shareholders of the company, the executives, the partners… everyone who’s financially involved with the Leng family had called. His phone almost explode.
nHe was merely a butler yet he received so many calls.
nIt wasn’t hard to imagine just how busy Leng Yan’s subordinates in the company were.
nJust then, Yu Mo called.
nHe hit connect and from the other line, Yu Mo’s voice was full of anxiety, “Uncle Zhou, is the young master around? The company is a mess! All the big dogs are here and they want the young master to step out and say something.”
n“A bunch of foreign investors want to back out. Can you ask the young master what he wants to do? I can’t hold on for much longer.”
nZhou Xin’s vision went dark. He had no time to think and dashed towards Leng Yan’s room.
nIn Leng Yan’s room, he found Leng Yan awake. However, Zhou Xin was too afraid to approach him.
nAfter all, if Ms. Qiao cannot find a cure, then the young master doesn’t have many days left.
nThe young master now was at peace and was so tranquil. Zhou Xin just wanted him to remain this way, to remain happy. Zhou Xin wanted him to go with a relaxed heart and not be bothered by these mundane annoyances.
nJust as he thought it over, Leng Yan laughed, “This day was bound to come. I can face it.”
nSo the young master already knew.
nZhou Xin’s heart was full of sorrow. He watched Zhou Xin grow up and he himself was without children. Therefore, Leng Yan was basically his son.
nThese days, his heart broke way more than other people’s.
n“Young master.” Zhou Xin went up to him, “How about we put some makeup on you like last time, and lie to these people to calm them down? We could at least make through the next little while.”
nIf he is going to pass away soon, he should feel at peace.
nLeng Yan smiled and shook his head, “There’s no need. Take my will and all the documents I prepared to my lawyer. Do what you have to do with the company.”
n“Young master!” Zhou Xin was in shock, “We aren’t at that point yet! Ms. Qiao is looking for ways to save you! You can’t give up on yourself first!”
nLeng Yan shook his head, “I can’t place all my hope on that small possibility. Since the truth is out there now, it’s better for us to get ahead and take care of everything properly. Only then, can I spend my next days in peace.”
