Li Lan held Wu Yong’s manuscript in her hand, having decided to find Charlie. Her family was in Charlie’s grasp, and she had to do many things against her will.

She took out her phone, the screen saver showing a photo of her and Su Ming. Su Ming rarely took photos and looked very stiff in the picture. She had teased him about it at the time. Now, she could only look at their photo, one that she couldn’t even keep.

Her identity had been exposed. Fortunately, she still had value and would probably be sent out of the country by Charlie soon.

She looked at the rushing water under the bridge, ready to throw her phone away when it suddenly rang.

Startled, she remembered she had already discarded the SIM card and had no internet connection. How could the phone ring? Hesitant, she watched the screen. The phone stopped ringing, and a pop-up message appeared.

“Su Ming is poisoned, with internal bleeding, and needs an antidote.”

These few words shocked Li Lan. She reread them several times, unable to believe it. Her breathing became rapid. She had used a minimal dose, which shouldn’t have caused severe harm.

As she hesitated, wondering if this was Song Fan’s trick, another message came through.

“Su Ming was shot and is weak. Song Fan is performing surgery and urgently needs the antidote!!!”

The three exclamation marks made Li Lan’s heart wrench. How had she forgotten that Su Ming had been shot?

Knowing that all medicines had their toxic side effects, she clutched the antidote in her pocket for two seconds before sprinting back towards the hospital.

“President Gu! How is Su Ming?” Li Lan arrived at the hospital, breathless, seeing Gu Chen at the operating room door. She knew the messages were true.

Seeing the nurse carrying blood plasma into the operating room, her heart sank.

She grabbed Gu Chen, hurriedly pushing the antidote into his hand. “Here’s the antidote. Su Ming didn’t take much poison. Five milliliters should suffice. Song Fan will know how to use it.”

Gu Chen took the antidote, looking at her coldly without moving.Discover 𝒏ew chapters at novelbi𝒏(.)co𝒎

“Gu Chen! Hurry!” Tears streamed down Li Lan’s face. “He got shot because of you. You can’t let him die.”

No longer pretending, Li Lan knew her heart had changed when she decided to return. She only wished for Su Ming to live.

Seeing her genuine urgency, Gu Chen finally ordered the antidote to be sent in. At the same time, four bodyguards surrounded Li Lan.

Li Lan slumped to the ground, knowing she couldn’t escape.

“Once I’m sure Su Ming is okay, I’ll go with you. Is that alright?” She bowed her head, her voice calm.

“Alright,” Gu Chen replied curtly before turning to leave.

Li Lan didn’t know how long she had been sitting on the cold hospital floor. When the operating room door opened, she stood up quickly.

“How is Su Ming? Is he okay?” She tried to move forward but was stopped by the bodyguards.

Song Fan, looking exhausted, removed her mask, took a deep breath, and looked at Li Lan.

“Su Ming, is he still alive?” Li Lan fought back tears, staring at Song Fan.

She knew that if Song Fan intervened with the antidote, Su Ming would survive. But she needed to see him herself.

“Internal bleeding, but not much. The antidote arrived in time,” Song Fan said as a stretcher was pushed out behind her.

Li Lan saw the pale, unconscious Su Ming, his breathing steady. She finally felt relieved.

Song Fan waved, signaling for Su Ming to be taken to the ICU. She then approached Li Lan.

“Now, can you tell me your story? Should we find another place to talk?” During the surgery, Gu Chen had informed Song Fan about the situation outside. Song Fan was certain this woman had been in the lab. She needed answers from Li Lan.

Li Lan nodded but refused to leave. “Let’s stay at the hospital. I want to wait until Su Ming wakes up.”

Song Fan agreed, instructing someone to find a quiet VIP room. In the commotion, Li Lan pretended to wipe her tears, slipping a pill into her mouth.
