Chapter 1957: Chapter 1957: Get Out, Stay Away From Me!
Inspecting Tingye’s body thoroughly, lest her son shows any signs of discomfort.
"Bang—"
The spoon in Dan Hanxi’s hand was knocked to the ground by her.
He lifted his head to meet Qin Youxuan’s guarded gaze, his chest tightened.
"What are you afraid of, that I’ll poison his food?"
"..."
"Well, he is Dan Hanjie’s son. If he dies, Dan Hanjie will be devastated. If I use slow-acting poison, I could enjoy watching the effects take hold, record it for Dan Hanjie, and let him taste the agony of watching a loved one die before him!"
"..."
Qin Youxuan’s body trembled, all color drained from her face.
She tightened her grip around Tingye, turned abruptly, and rushed toward the door.
"Quick, tell the driver to head to the hospital!"
Holding the little silent child tightly, Qin Youxuan’s heart pounded beyond her limits.
Dan Hanxi’s words echoed incessantly in her ears.
"Hurry! Drive faster, go to the hospital financed by the Ye Family!"
...
"Bang—"
Inside the villa, Dan Hanxi fixed his stare on Qin Youxuan’s retreating figure, then violently swept the bowl of porridge off the table.
He slammed his fist heavily onto the tabletop.
He raised a hand, wanting to flip the table over, but his body leaned forward suddenly, almost hitting the table corner.
"Mr. Xi, be careful!"
His assistant saw this and nervously rushed forward to grab the wheelchair.
"Get lost! Stay away from me!"
Dan Hanxi roared, his hands braced against the table, snarling like a ferocious beast.
He felt like a broken man now, unable to vent his anger without risking harm to himself. What could be more pathetic?
Dan Hanxi clenched his fingers tightly, the joints crackling.
Visions of Qin Youxuan’s wary expression flashed through his mind, causing sharp pangs in his heart.
He pressed a large hand against his chest, struggling to breathe.
"Is it really so hard to trust me one time?"
"I hate him, but I would never harm you..."
"In my eyes, he’s just your son..."
Dan Hanxi lowered his gaze, staring at the scattered children’s porridge, his eyes darkening.
Wearily, he closed his eyes.
In her eyes, he was merely a demon capable of harming even a child, a raving lunatic.
"Mr. Xi, your body can’t handle too much excitement, it’s dangerous." His assistant stood by, nervously watching Dan Hanxi’s flushed face, wanting to advise him but was halted by his fierce glare, afraid to step closer.
In the next moment, Dan Hanxi’s complexion suddenly paled, and he collapsed heavily from his wheelchair.
"Mr. Xi—"
...
In the hospital.
Children’s Ward.
"Madam, the test results are out. There’s nothing wrong with the little master’s food; it’s just normal food with no trace of any substances. The little master’s current condition is very healthy, so there’s no need for concern."
The doctor carried little Tingye out of the examination room, stopping before Qin Youxuan.
"Nothing wrong?"
Qin Youxuan hesitated slightly, looking at the little one asleep in the doctor’s arms, her cat-like eyes narrowed.
"If nothing’s wrong, why did Tingye suddenly fall asleep? He hasn’t had dinner yet..."
"Children differ from adults; when they’re tired or bored, they’ll want to go to sleep. After such a prolonged examination, it’s normal for the little master to feel drowsy."
"He’s just tired..." Qin Youxuan bit her lip, exhaled deeply with relief.
