She was so close.

She would’ve found a cure for the X-Virus by now if there was no war in the first place.

“Dad! Mom!”

Li Qingcang called for his parents and rushed into the suite. He moved as swiftly as a whirlwind.

Ye Linlang looked at Li Qingcang with reddened eyes. She wanted to say something, but she couldn’t bring herself to do so.

How could she tell Li Qingcang that his wife, who was also her daughter, had the X-Virus?

With the current state of the healthcare industry, there was no known cure for the virus right now.

These words were swirling around in her mouth, but she couldn’t spit them out.

“Dad, Mom, please tell me what happened to Tianxin.”

Li Qingcang’s handsome face was pale and cold, which was particularly frightening.

There was invisible murderous intent in his eyes, but it passed by so quickly.

He clearly knew that with how cautious Xie Xuning was, he would not have let uncle He drive to get him to the hospital tonight if Tianxin’s situation was not so bad.

“Tianxin is in the bedroom.”

Li Qingcang walked into the bedroom. He looked at Ye Tianxin, who was dying in the ward. All he could think about was what she was like before.

She was sweet when she smiled, and her smile was intoxicating.

Li Qingcang gingerly walked into the bedroom to Ye Tianxin’s side.

Ye Tianxin opened her eyes to the faint scent of wine. She said, “Brother Li, you are here?”

Li Qingcang’s expression became particularly soft as he said, “Tianxin, I’m here.”

Ye Tian moved her eyes and said to Li Qingcang, “I have a fever, but it’s not that big of a deal. Don’t worry about it.”

Li Qingcang saw that Ye Tianxin’s lips were dry, so he asked, “Tianxin, would you like some water?”

Ye Tianxin shook her head and said, “I don’t want to drink. I’m just sleepy.”

“Then go to sleep. I’ll be right here with you.”

Li Qingcang sat in front of Ye Tianxin and watched her close her eyes and sleep.

“Go to sleep.”

Ye Tianxin was sleeping soundly.

Li Qingcang’s heart sank slowly.

He walked outside the suite and looked at Ye Linlang and Xie Xuning. He asked, “Dad, Mom, what’s the matter with Tianxin?”

“After you left, Tianxin had a fever of 39.5˚ C. We took her to the hospital and made her take a comprehensive blood test.”

Ye Linlang handed the report to Li Qingcang, Li Qingcang took it and saw that the data looked much higher than normal. He asked her, “Mom, what does this mean?”

Ye Linlang took a deep breath and whispered, “Qingcang, Tianxin is infected with the X-Virus.”

The X-Virus?

As a peacekeeper, he was no stranger to the X-Virus. He knew how difficult the X-Virus was, as well as what it did to the human body. He said, “As far as I know, there is no cure for the X-Virus.”

Li Qingcang’s words made Ye Linlang’s pupils shrink.

Ye Linlang said, “Now I need to know when Tianxin was infected with the X-Virus.”

Li Qingcang said, “It could have been when Tianxin came to visit me while I was peacekeeping overseas. What about when she helped the pregnant woman give birth?”

That was the only time that Li Qingcang thought Ye Tianxin could’ve first contracted the virus. At least, that had to be it if she did have the virus.
