The two sat in front of the chessboard. Xia Wan looked at the man and blinked before playing chess, and said with a smile.

"Husband, there is no husband and wife in the chess game. If I find out that you are cheating, I will not be happy."

The man saw the seriousness in Xia Wan's eyes and curled his lips and said yes.

The two began to play in an orderly manner. In order to distract He Lin, the housekeeper pushed him to the side of the chess game so that he could watch. Gu Shichen's chess was the same as his. Extremely sharp and without any flaws, taking every step step by step, Xia Wan is the complete opposite and doesn't take risks. But at the critical moment, he uses a soft knife to kill with one blow, using movement to control stillness, and using softness to overcome hardness. The two of them were going back and forth, and it seemed like they were evenly matched. It was impossible to tell the winner in a short time, but He Lin's attention was distracted a lot by the chess game in front of him. Half an hour passed quickly. Xia Wan dropped the chess piece and spoke with a smile.

"Let's play again next time."

"it is good"

Xia Wan quickly removed He Lin's needle. The pain slowly subsided with the removal of the silver needle and turned into a feeling of swelling.

"How are you? Do you feel it? Or how do you feel?"

He Lin truthfully described the feeling at this time. His face was paler than at the beginning, but his eyes were extremely bright. This was the first time in several years that he could clearly feel the existence of these legs.

"This is the first time. It will get better with more times in the future. I will prescribe some medicine later, one for oral use and one for external use."

Xia Wan nodded and took it as a decoction for oral use and for external use as a leg soak.

He Lin nodded.

"Trouble"

"No trouble, I have a question that I need Mr. He to help me solve."

"Mrs. Gu, please tell me. Whatever He knows, he must tell you everything he knows."

Although He Lin's face was still pale, his overall condition was obviously much better than before. After all, seeing him stand up again, I hope his whole spirit looks different.

"It's not a big deal. Has Mr. He heard of an elderly doctor with the same surname as me here?"

Xia Wan packed up the medical kit and looked up at He Lin with detailed eyes.

According to grandpa's medical skills, it should not be an unknown existence wherever it is placed. Because of these legs, He Lin even inquired about her medical skills, let alone here.

He Lin thought for a while and slowly shook his head. His voice was weak, but his tone was very sure.

"No, if I have seen this surname before, or heard of it, I should have thought of it when I met you, Mrs. Gu, but my mind tells me that I have no such impression at all."

If He Lin knew that grandpa should have gone directly to him instead of sending him to his door to do business with him. Xia Wan was already ready. But after hearing this, there was still inevitable disappointment in his eyes. She nodded without saying anything, and a flash of understanding flashed through He Lin's eyes behind his transparent lenses. It seems that this elderly doctor should be very important to Xia Wan. Gu Shichen had already expected He Lin's answer, but he couldn't help but feel a little distressed when he saw Xia Wan's expression. He stood up from his seat, walked to Xia Wan's side, and gently hugged her waist.

"It's over, we should go."

"it is good"

Xia Wan nodded.

"Mr. He, pay attention to rest. I will be here again at this time tomorrow."

Apart from their transactions, she and He Lin had no other friendship. After the matter was settled, it was really time to leave. The two were about to turn around. He Lin's gentle voice rang out in time, stopping the two who were about to leave.

"Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, please wait a moment. I still owe Mrs. Gu a request."

Gu Shichen's eyes focused on He Lin, as if he knew what he was going to say. He Lin avoided the man's very existential gaze and looked at Xia Wan's pale face with a very deceptive smile.

"If Mrs. Gu wants to find this doctor named Xia, I can ask someone to find him."

From this treatment, it is not difficult to see that Mrs. Gu is indeed capable of curing his leg. Since there is nothing wrong with using it in advance under the previous conditions, of course the most important thing is that he can relax. After all, the word "unconditional" carries a lot of weight. Xia Wan knew what his family meant, but was not prepared to use up his promise so easily. After all, the difficulties encountered during the search for grandpa are unpredictable, so it is better to be cautious.

"Don't worry, I will tell Mr. He when needed."

When He Lin saw that Xia Wan did not follow his wishes, a flash of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but it was not shown on his face. He looked at the butler with a gentle voice.

"Okay, you go and see off Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu for me."

The butler nodded, and then walked to the side of the two people with a respectful attitude.

"Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, I will send you two out."

Xia Wan nodded, but when Gu Shichen turned around, he glanced at He Lin with cold eyes. Just one glance made He Lin realize the cold meaning in it. What does this mean? His brows wrinkled involuntarily, and he fell into deep thought.

In the car, Xia Wan leaned in the man's arms and looked through the car window at the rapidly retreating scenery on both sides. Suddenly what did she discover? He sat up straight and looked at the man.

"Honey, this is not the way back to the hospital."

She has always been very confident in her memory.

"Um"

Gu Shichen's tone and expression were equally gentle.

"We're not going back to the hospital."

Xia Wan was a little confused about where to go instead of going to the hospital. Looking at the man's face so close, Gu Shichen's thin lips slightly hooked and his well-jointed fingers moved the corners of her lips.

"Let's go somewhere that makes my wife happy."

He remembered clearly what his wife had said. To make a woman happy is nothing more than good, yes, buying.

What makes her happy?

Although Xia Wan didn't know what Gu Shichen wanted to do, this intention was enough to make her feel happy the next moment. He looked down and saw the white coat on his body.

"But we haven't changed yet."

You can't go out wearing these clothes. People who don't know better think they are doing something weird.

Gu Shichen looked at Xia Wan's troubled face, smiled and took her into his arms again.

"It's okay, I've got people ready, don't worry."

Xia Wan hugged her husband's waist tightly, rubbed her face gently on his neck, and said with a soft smile.

"Husband, you are truly the best husband in the world."

This is not a compliment, this is the truest thought in her heart.

It was because his wife was too easily satisfied and what he did was not enough. Gu Shichen said nothing. Gently soothing Xia Wan's back, the smile on the corners of her lips deepened a bit. Or it’s never enough. From this we can see that if you love someone, you will always feel that you have given not enough, and if you do not love someone, you will always feel that you have given too much.

On the other side, He Lin was sitting in the yard, looking at the void in front of him, recalling the look in Gu Shichen's eyes before leaving. What did he know?

Or do you know what you know?

After the housekeeper saw the two off, he couldn't help but frown when he saw He Lin's appearance when he came back.

"Sir, are your legs still feeling uncomfortable? I will push you back to your room to rest."

"Don't worry, bring me my phone. I want to call Gu Shichen."

He Lin shook his head, and when he spoke again, his eyes had become a little subtle and complicated.

Didn't Mr. Gu just leave?

Could it be that something was left behind? When the housekeeper heard what He Lin said, he couldn't help but feel a little confused. He looked around and thought so, but there was no pause in his movements. He Lin took the phone. Put it in his ear and ask for help. After all, it is him.

In the car, Gu Shichen looked at the incoming call on his mobile phone, his expression unchanged. A faint smile appeared.

Fairly discerning.

Xia Wan frowned slightly when she saw the number displayed on the screen.

"Didn't we just leave? Why did he call us? Did something sudden happen?"

Of course she was thinking about He Lin's legs. Gu Shichen's voice was low and somewhat cool.

"Don't think too much that he is just making this call to show his sincerity in cooperating."

He pressed the connect button and then released it.

"Mr. Gu, there is something I forgot to remind you."

He Lin's faint voice came from the other end of the phone. He spoke in a deep voice and told everything about Mrs. He's secret moves against Xia Wan. Hearing this, Xia Wan curled her lips, her beautiful face was full of indifference. With the experience of blood and tears in her previous life, she never had any hope for human nature. If she didn't have hope, she would never be disappointed.

"Really? I'll let you know, Mr. He."

There was a calm and calm smile in Gu Shichen's deep voice, and his tone was unhurried, without the slightest ups and downs, nor much surprise.

He Lin pursed his lips, feeling a little lucky that he made this call. Gu Shichen really knew everything.

"I happen to have detailed information about all her contacts. I will have someone send it to you, Mr. Gu. If you need any help, Mr. Gu, just ask."

At this point, the gesture and sincerity were in place. Gu Shichen responded with a low and indifferent voice, and hung up the phone directly. Xia Wan's red lips were slightly raised, and there was a hint of coolness in her gentle voice. He Lin made it clear. It was Mrs. He who took action, not Mrs. He.

"It seems that there are different opinions at the He family's old residence."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter whether it ends or not."

Gu Shichen twisted Xia Wan's hair that had fallen down beside her face behind her ears. His eyes were focused, as if he was seeing only her at this moment, and his calm tone contained a frightening chill.

The collapse of the He family has shifted the focus to Xia Wan. It's already doomed.

Inside the children's hospital on the other side.

The housekeeper looked at Xiao Lan and spoke in a low voice. The voice was polite.

"Ms. Xiao, the suitable bone marrow will be delivered within three days. I have already arranged the time of the transplant operation and the specific follow-up matters. There will be a dedicated person in charge of it in the hospital."

Xiao Lan was very excited, and a layer of mist appeared in his eyes uncontrollably. She grabbed her arm.

"Where is Lin Yan? I want to see him."

To fulfill the promise made last night, tell him the news that she knew, and of course to see him again. She didn't know what she thought of, but a dim look flashed in her eyes.

"Sir has gone on a business trip and is not here. Before leaving, I specifically asked you to tell me if you have anything to say."

The housekeeper took in the look of the woman in front of him and said truthfully.

not here? Don't you even want to see me once?

"If you have any questions, I can help you contact Mr. and let him tell you personally."

"No, I don't have any doubts, but it's not convenient to talk here."

"Of course, please come with me."

Xiao Lan nodded and followed. The two of them walked into the hospital one after another, and specially prepared a spacious office. Bodyguards guarded the door to prevent anyone from approaching. The housekeeper poured Xiao Lan a cup of tea and stood aside without sitting down.

“It’s safe enough here that you can speak your mind.”

"Lin Haoran, the nail I know hidden next to Lin Yan is Lin Haoran."

The housekeeper has been in the Lin family for decades and has long been accustomed to restraining his emotions, but his face instantly turned cold when he heard the name. When I heard the news from my husband, I started to check everything one by one in my mind. The suspicious person was also prepared that the nail could be anyone, but he still couldn't control his emotions when he actually heard it.

When the master was still alive, Lin Haoran was selected and trained by an inconspicuous branch of the Lin family as his capable assistant. He has indeed done a lot of things for him over the years. It can be said that the husband has great trust in him. If he is really the Lin family, there will be a wave of bloodshed. Thinking of this, the housekeeper pursed his lips and looked at Lin Lan.

"Do you have any evidence?"

This sentence is not a question, but a confirmation. After all, Lin Haoran's current status and trust in front of his husband cannot be determined by just a few words.

"Have"

Xiao Lan saw the computer on the side and walked straight over, connecting her phone to it. An audio file hidden in the deepest place was opened with layers of passwords, and finally the butler pressed the play button.

"This woman is lying to us. She has never attacked Lin Yan at all. We must get rid of this woman, otherwise she will ruin our affairs sooner or later."

"Did Lin Yan notice anything?"

"Don't worry, no matter what, that person will not suspect me."

A familiar voice came out through the recording. The housekeeper gritted his teeth tightly, his face darkened, and finally he took out his mobile phone that was specially used to communicate with Lin Yan.

"Please send me the documents."

"it is good"

Xiao Lan nodded and started to operate, leaving evidence for Lin Yan to transfer the file. She raised her eyes and looked at the housekeeper.

"Then when can Lin Yan come back?"

After Xiao Cheng's operation was successful, they were afraid that they would have to leave here again. It would be extremely difficult to come back or see him again.

"I don't know. Sir, he went out this time to deal with the marriage contract made by the family. He didn't say the specific time of his return."

The housekeeper couldn't bear it, but still chose to tell the truth.

Xiao Lan froze in place when he heard this. He didn't move for a long time. It took him a long time to find his voice, with an unspeakable bitterness in his tone.

"Why haven't I heard Lin Yan talk about the engagement before?"

She knew Lin Yan's character very well. If there was a fiancée, he would not have contact with other women at all, those few people in the Lin family who were hiding in the shadows. There would be no chance to use his own chess piece. After hesitating for a while, the housekeeper chose to tell the truth.

"The engagement was deliberately concealed, and sir just found out about it not long ago."

The implication was that Lin Yan had no intention of deceiving when he and Xiao Lan were together.

"I know, that's what it is."

"You know how good your husband is to you, and we people can see it very clearly. Of course, I can also see that your feelings for your husband are not fake. But your sudden abandonment back then almost made him lose half of his life." It’s hard to get out of my life. If you can hope, Miss, you don’t..."

There was a hint of sincerity in the butler's tone. Seeing the tears falling from the corners of Xiao Lan's eyes, he couldn't bear to continue speaking the rest of the words.

"I hope I won't get close to Lin Yan again, right?"

Xiao Lan's voice was much hoarse than usual, but she couldn't hear the emotion contained in it.

The butler didn't say anything, which was his acquiescence.

Xiao Lan continued to speak.

"You think too highly of me. Do you think Lin Yan can get close to him? The initiative has never been in my hands, just like now, right?"

Her misty eyes looked in the direction of the housekeeper, but she could only see an outline.

The housekeeper paused when he heard this, and it was true.

"There is still a long road ahead in life, and I hope you can get out of it soon. There are still many things that need to be dealt with in the manor, so I have to go back first."

The housekeeper didn't say anything else, took a look and left. There was only one person left in the office. The silence was so extreme that even the sound of breathing could not be heard. All kinds of sour and unpleasant tastes surged in Xiao Lan's heart, making her breathless. In the end, she couldn't control her hands on the table. Trembling slightly. A mouthful of bright red blood overflowed from Xiao Lan's throat, dripping down his white chin and onto his clothes.

Zhao Xue saw this scene when she opened the door and came in. The joy on her face instantly turned pale. She hurriedly supported Xiao Lan with her hands and feet. Her pale face was full of worry and her voice was trembling.

"How could this happen? Isn't it already healed? Where is the medicine? Where is the medicine?"

"I'm fine. Lin Yan has found a suitable bone marrow, and Xiao Cheng is saved."

Xiao Lan raised her hand and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

Her soft voice was the same as usual, and her tone was exceptionally calm. Zhao Xue only ran over after receiving a call from the hospital. But I didn't expect to see my friend vomiting blood. The previous joy was completely replaced by worry.

"I know, I know everything. The child is fine, but why are you vomiting blood? Hasn't the poison been cured? How could this happen?"

She vaguely guessed something.

"Is there something you're hiding from me?"

"No, the child still needs someone. You go and stay with him first, and I'll go change some clothes."

Xiao Lan shook her head, and before Zhao Xue made any move, she stood up from her seat and walked outside. The slender body looks even thinner from the back. Zhao Xue burst into tears because of her heartache, and her thoughts suddenly returned to a few years ago. Xiao Lan suddenly transferred a large amount of money to her who was still living abroad at the time, and asked her to live a good life in the future. Although he said it in a joking tone, it made him realize that something was wrong. After repeated questioning by herself, Xiao Lan told her that her mother was seriously ill and died. She knew that her seriously ill mother was Xiao Lan's only relative in the world and was afraid that she would be too sad and do something stupid. I asked for leave directly from the company, flew back here overnight, and took a taxi as soon as I got off the plane. Xiao Lan opened the door with the password at the address he left for her, and the scene she saw when she arrived is something she will never forget. Xiao Lan lay unconscious in the bathtub with a four- to five-centimeter wound on her dangling wrist. Blood dripped down her fingertips and dyed the floor red. She was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground. She didn't know how to put her hands and feet. It was easy to find my voice.

"What's wrong with you? Don't scare me."

Zhao Xue came to the edge of the bathtub on hands and feet, and put her fingers under Xiao Lan's nose. Fortunately, she was still breathing weakly. Zhao Xue breathed a sigh of relief, leaned against the bathtub to support her body, and took out her mobile phone to make a call. Emergency phone number. The ambulance came quickly. They accompanied Xiao Lan to the hospital in the ambulance. The doctor made it very clear that fortunately it was delivered in time. In half an hour, Xiao Lan's life would not be saved. Lan woke up and found that she was not dead. Instead of feeling happy, I felt disappointed. The first thing she said was that you shouldn't have saved me. Not everyone has the courage to commit suicide twice.

Before Zhao Xue could ask clearly what happened, Xiao Lan dragged her still weak body and asked her to take her abroad. Only when she got there did she learn everything from Xiao Lan's narration.

After the Xiao family went bankrupt. Xiao's father couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide by jumping off the building. Xiao's mother was also so angry that she suffered a heart attack and couldn't afford it. Xiao Lan was burdened with debts.

Unable to pay for her mother's hospitalization expenses, she lowered her attitude to the lowest possible level and begged relatives and people she had good friends with in the past. But they were all rejected mercilessly. Just when she was almost desperate, someone came forward and promised to help her mother treat her illness and even pay off part of the debt, but the requirement was that from now on, her life must follow his arrangements. This person was She was one of the Lin family. They moved her mother from China to abroad, received good treatment, and helped her pay off part of her debt. When she breathed a sigh of relief, they gave me a task to get close to Lin Yan, who had taken over the Lin family but had an unstable foundation. Although she didn't know what these people wanted to do, she also knew that it was definitely not a good thing, but she had no choice. There is no right to refuse all this. With their detailed information and the help of arranging coincidences and encounters, they got together smoothly. The other party did not make any move after knowing about it. Xiao Lan and Lin Yan fell in love with each other for a long time and really fell in love. Got him. She was very happy during that time, so happy that she almost forgot that her relationship with Lin Yan was just a conspiracy.

When they discovered that Lin Yan was attracted to Xiao Lan and even wanted to marry her, those people knew that their opportunity had come, and they used their seriously ill mother to threaten Xiao Lan.
