He continued, a cold light flashing through his narrow eyes, "I have also tested you, and the time when you ingested the poison was most likely around noon on the day when you had the abdominal pain..."

"You can recall carefully where you were and what you ate at noon that day."

Jiang Jinran lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.

[That noon, she naturally stayed in the academy. ]

[As for what I ate——]

【I have a lot to eat! 】

Jiang Shiyan listened carefully without making any sound to disturb her.

at this time--

On the bedside table next to him, Jiang Jinran's cell phone suddenly rang.

Jiang Jinran glanced at his phone, then turned to look at Jiang Shiyan, "Brother, I have a call."

Jiang Shiyan nodded slightly at her.

Jiang Jinran picked up the phone and Shen Wei's name flashed on the screen.

Then she remembered that she and Shen Wei had an audition appointment.

She subconsciously glanced at the date. It had been two days since their agreed time. Shen Wei called her now.

Could it be that he was here to call her to task?

Jiang Jinran answered the phone with no expression on his face, "Hello, Director Shen."

"Jiang Jinran, didn't we agree to audition on Friday evening?" Shen Wei's slow voice came over. His tone did not contain any blame, but more of a question. "Why didn't you come suddenly? I called you, but no one answered."

Jiang Jinran told the truth, "Director, I suddenly felt unwell, so I was delayed."

"I told you," Shen Wei's voice was full of understanding, "You wouldn't break your promise for no reason... How are you feeling? Are you okay?"

Jiang Jinran nodded, "I'm almost well now."

"So, when you are completely well, are you willing to come again?" Shen Wei asked gently, like an elder talking to his own child, "I still look forward to you coming to my variety show."

Jiang Jinran did not agree directly, but responded ambiguously, "I will contact you when I recover."

Shen Wei readily agreed.

Jiang Jinran hung up the phone.

Jiang Shiyan cast a calm gaze over, with a hint of concern in his eyes. He kindly reminded her, "You can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Do whatever you want to do."

Jiang Jinran blinked and met Jiang Shiyan's clear eyes.

[This brother is a gentle and kind person...]

Jiang Shiyan coughed lightly unnaturally. Being praised by Jiang Jinran like this actually made him feel a little at a loss.

【pity……】

A glimmer of darkness flashed across Jiang Jinran's eyes extremely quickly.

【He seems to have very severe congenital asthma. 】

Jiang Shiyan's expression suddenly froze.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.

How did she know?

Jiang Shiyan didn't think that the Jiang family would tell Jiang Jinran that he was ill.

She didn't need to know, and there was no need.

Indeed, no one told Jiang Jinran about this. She only knew about it through the plot of the novel.

[This disease cannot be completely cured, not even by my brother who is a miracle doctor. Who would have thought that a miracle doctor who has cured so many patients could not cure himself]

Jiang Jinran's brows furrowed tightly.

[But this is not the worst. Someone will tamper with his asthma medicine later, and then...]

She didn't think about it any further.

Jiang Shiyan's heart was greatly shaken at this moment.

Did she know she had asthma and what was going to happen next?

The handsome and elegant man did not show any obvious fluctuations on his face, but his heart could not calm down for a long time.

This seems like a fairy tale, full of incomprehensible absurdity.

But it happens—

He inexplicably felt that what Jiang Jinran was thinking was most likely true.

There is no reason, I just want to believe it inexplicably——

Perhaps, I will really encounter such a disaster in the future.

-

Jiang Jinran went through the discharge procedures the next day.

Jiang Shiyan took good care of her and treated her tenderly and gently. Such a person would probably be considered an outlier in the cold-blooded Jiang family.

After leaving the hospital, she got on the car directly home.

Jiang Yuyan and Jiang Yuehan were sitting at the front of the car. They came together to pick up Jiang Jinran from the hospital.

Jiang Shiyan seemed to be deliberately avoiding them and did not meet them. After helping her complete the discharge procedures, this gentle third brother left alone.

Along the way, Jiang Jinran was still thinking about Jiang Shiyan.

Jiang Shiyan's illness is actually a bit complicated. It has both congenital and acquired causes.

As a doctor, he spent too much effort and energy to cure diseases and save lives, and the damage to his body was actually very great.

Over the years, the condition will only get worse.

However, he did not take it too seriously and chose to suppress it with medication.

This caused irreversible damage to his body.

It seems that Jiang Shiyan himself has never thought about treating his illness properly.

Jiang Jinran raised his eyes and looked at the scenery passing by quickly outside the car window——

but……

A hint of confidence suddenly appeared in Jiang Jinran's eyes.

Fortunately, she might be able to be cured.

-

After going home.

Jiang Jinran returned to his bedroom.

She sat on the edge of the bed, thought it over again and again, and decided to go to school later.

She had accidentally ingested poison at the academy.

Then, the person who hurt her is most likely someone from the academy...

She desperately wanted to know who was so vicious and what his purpose was.

She lay on the bed and rested for a while, then got up, changed her clothes, and left the Jiang family villa silently.

Fortunately, Jiang Yuyan and Jiang Yuehan were both busy and had no time to take care of her.

If they knew that I was going to school right after being discharged from the hospital, they would definitely not agree.

So, Jiang Jinran acted first and reported later.

Let’s go to school first.

She won't be satisfied until she gets to the bottom of this matter.

When Jiang Jinran arrived at Dixing Academy, the students of Class 3 were having physical education class on the playground and the entire classroom was empty.

She immediately went to the security room and wanted to check the surveillance footage from that noon.

"Don't be unreasonable, kid." The security guard felt that Jiang Jinran was being unreasonable and was very reluctant to pay attention to her. "This surveillance camera can't be adjusted casually. You must have really encountered something..."

As the security guard spoke, he looked at Jiang Jinran with a scrutinizing gaze.

He quickly concluded that this was not a child from a wealthy family.

"You, if you have nothing to do, just leave and don't disturb me while I'm working." As a result, the security guard's attitude became worse, and there was a bit more contempt in the look he gave Jiang Jinran.

Jiang Jinran clenched her fists. She suddenly spoke to the security guard, "Of course I have problems. Did you know that I'm about to be poisoned? Did you know that I'm about to die? If you don't let me adjust the surveillance now, I'll be in a bad mood. If I'm in a bad mood, my health will be even worse. If I die, you will definitely be responsible!"
