Nanny Zhao stumbled a few steps.
Butler Wang supported her and offered comfort. Don't worry. Your daughter is a good person and heaven will watch over her. She'll be fine.
Nanny Zhao didn't say a word. She stood rooted to the spot, looking utterly devastated.
She knew her daughter's condition better than anyone else.
It had been ten years since her daughter was diagnosed with leukemia, and she had never been able to find a cure.
Over the past ten years, her daughter's husband had left her because of the illness.
Fearing she would be a burden, her daughter frequently stopped taking her medication.
The doctors had said it was already a miracle that her daughter had survived for a decade.
Every day since then had been incredibly precious for her daughter, as she could pass away at any moment.
Had that day finally arrived?
Only half an hour into the surgery, the doctor emerged from the operating room.
Butler Wang immediately sensed something was wrong.
How could a surgery end so quickly? Could there have been an accident?
How is she? Nanny Zhao stumbled forward and grabbed the doctor's arm. Doctor, was the surgery a success? Tell me, how is my daughter doing?
Nanny Zhao looked so frantic that she was on the verge of tears.
Dr. Chen sighed and shook his head. The patient's current condition is very poor. We had no choice but to stop the surgery, otherwise, she would likely have died on the operating table.
Nanny Zhao's eyes widened in shock.
Judging by the doctor's words... her daughter couldn't be saved. There was no hope left...
All the color instantly drained from Nanny Zhao's face, leaving it as pale as a sheet of paper.
She has two days left at most. During this time, she could pass away at any moment. As her family, you should spend these final moments by her side, Dr. Chen sighed.
With that, he walked past Nanny Zhao and left.
When Nanny Zhao's daughter, Zhao Mei, was wheeled out of the operating room and transferred to a regular ward, she was still unconscious from the anesthesia.
Nanny Zhao sat by the bed, holding her daughter's hand as tears streamed endlessly down her face.
Butler Wang offered his comfort. Lanzhi, please don't be too heartbroken. Have faith in your daughter; she will pull through.
The doctor said there's no cure. What else can be done? Nanny Zhao murmured in despair.
There's nothing we can do. My daughter can't be saved...
If her daughter died, this world would lose all meaning to her. She wouldn't want to live anymore either.
There has to be a way. There must be a way, Butler Wang muttered to himself.
He knew quite a few renowned doctors. He needed to think carefully about who could possibly save Nanny Zhao's daughter.
Butler Wang hurriedly stepped out and asked the attending physician for Zhao Mei's current medical report.
He then sent it to several medical experts specializing in leukemia.
The experts' replies were all essentially the same.
The patient's condition is too severe. There is nothing I can do.
To think that none of them could do anything about her illness...
Suddenly, Butler Wang thought of Lin Xuan.
Young Master Lin seemed to know a thing or two about medicine. Given how capable he was, perhaps he could pull Nanny Zhao's daughter back from death's door.
With this thought in mind, Butler Wang hurriedly called Lin Xuan.
Butler Wang, is something the matter? Lin Xuan asked as he answered the phone.
Butler Wang said anxiously, Young Master Lin, the leukemia of Nanny Zhao's daughter has worsened. The doctor has issued a critical notice, saying she has at most two days left to live.
Lin Xuan furrowed his brows tightly.
To think that Nanny Zhao's daughter had leukemia...
Suddenly, Lin Xuan remembered something.
In his previous life, when he went to the Lin family home to celebrate Jiang Shuqin's birthday, the servants had mentioned that Nanny Zhao had passed away.
Now that he thought about it, Nanny Zhao's death had occurred right around this time.
Could it be that because her daughter died of leukemia, Nanny Zhao had committed suicide to join her, or perhaps passed away from extreme grief?
Young Master Lin, please see if there's anything you can do about her condition, or if you know any extraordinary experts who can treat leukemia, Butler Wang pleaded anxiously.
Given Nanny Zhao's current state, he was genuinely worried about whether she would be able to go on living if her daughter died.
Lin Xuan replied, Butler Wang, wait for me. I'll head over to the hospital right now to take a look.
Alright, Young Master Lin. I'll be waiting for you. Butler Wang felt the heavy weight in his heart lift slightly.
Hearing that Lin Xuan was coming over made Butler Wang feel that the young master must have a way to treat the illness.
Lin Xuan gently stroked the hair of the woman in his arms.
Hua, Lin Xuan said softly, Something has come up, and I need to head out for a bit.
Su Hua frowned.
Xuan couldn't stay and keep her company again...
Lin Xuan stood up from the sofa and leaned over her, resting his hands on either side of Su Hua, pinning her in place.
Hua, I'll rush right back as soon as I'm done handling this. Be a good girl and wait for me at home, alright?
Lin Xuan pressed a gentle kiss to Su Hua's forehead.
Mhm, Su Hua nodded.
She had originally wanted Lin Xuan to stay home with her, but with her Xuan coaxing her so tenderly, she couldn't bring herself to say no.
That's my good girl. Lin Xuan gave Su Hua another quick peck on the lips.
Only then did he straighten up and walk out of the villa.
Su Hua reached up and touched her red lips.
She knew that Xuan would have her completely wrapped around his finger for the rest of her life.
Still, it was a rather nice feeling...
After leaving the Night Garden, Lin Xuan drove straight to the hospital.
Lin Xuan wasn't exactly a man overflowing with compassion.
Unless he was offered a massive consultation fee and even then, it depended on his mood he wouldn't even consider treating a patient.
But Nanny Zhao was different.
Ever since he had been brought back to the Lin family, Nanny Zhao was the only person in the entire household who had treated him well. She would often sneak him food and occasionally even slip him some pocket money.
He had always remembered her kindness.
Now that Nanny Zhao's daughter was in trouble, he naturally wasn't going to just sit back and do nothing.
Lin Xuan entered the hospital.
Butler Wang was waiting right outside the ward. As soon as Lin Xuan's figure came into view, Butler Wang's eyes lit up, and he hurried over.
Thank goodness, Young Master Lin, you're finally here, Butler Wang said excitedly.
Lin Xuan said, Butler Wang, take me to her quickly.
Right away.
Butler Wang pushed open the door to the ward. Young Master Lin, she's right inside.
Lin Xuan stepped inside.
Nanny Zhao noticed Lin Xuan. Wiping away her tears, she asked, Eldest Young Master, what brings you here?
Before Lin Xuan could answer, Zhao Mei woke up.
Mom,
Zhao Mei croaked out with great difficulty.
Immediately forgetting about Lin Xuan, Nanny Zhao cried, My daughter! She sat by the bed and tightly gripped Zhao Mei's hand. Mom is right here. I'm right here.
Zhao Mei knew her body was failing. Her lips trembled as she murmured, Mom, it's okay. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have made it this far.
Please don't be too sad, okay?

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
