Chapter 2609: Chapter 2609: Just These Two Days
Ruan Tianling nodded, "You make the decision."
Jian Yufei was a bit surprised, she thought he wouldn’t agree.
Ruan Tianling saw through her thoughts and raised an eyebrow, "Even though I don’t care for him, I’m not that narrow-minded."
Jian Yufei leaned against his chest, "I’ve realized you’re getting better and better."
"What, was I not good enough before?" Ruan Tianling raised an eyebrow, looking at her with a half-smile.
Jian Yufei laughed, "No, you were good before too, just even better now."
"I said I’m the best man in the world..." Someone’s tail was wagging up to the sky again.
...
The sun rose into the sky.
The azure seawater kept crashing onto the beach.
In the vast castle, there was not a sound, giving an oppressive and suffocating feeling.
Several doctors took turns examining Nangong Xu, then left the room helplessly.
"How’s the BOSS doing?" the head bodyguard asked in a deep voice.
A doctor said solemnly, "Still unconscious, and we can’t find out the cause for now..."
"Then keep checking!"
The doctor hesitated, "...It’s not that we don’t want to check, but we are concerned... the boss’s body may not hold up for long."
"What do you mean?!" The head bodyguard’s expression turned cold suddenly.
"The boss’s body is rapidly deteriorating, I’m afraid it might only be a couple of days..."
"Is there no way to treat him?"
The doctor shook his head, "We’ve tried all sorts of ways, none worked. Moreover, we don’t even know what’s exactly wrong with the boss’s body, so there’s no way to cure it from the root."
The bodyguard was shocked, "Really not a single way?"
The doctor didn’t answer him directly.
"Anyway, we’ll race against time and do our utmost!"
"Then hurry up and research. Know that if the BOSS dies, you won’t survive either!"
Several doctors hurriedly left.
The head bodyguard walked into the room and arranged for several maids to take good care of Nangong Xu.
Just as he was about to leave, a maid exclaimed, "BOSS, you’re awake!"
The head bodyguard said excitedly, "Quick, get the doctor!"
"Yes."
Several maids hurriedly exited.
"BOSS, you’re finally awake!" The bodyguard’s voice was brimming with excitement.
Although Nangong Xu’s body was weak, his eyes were still sharp.
"What exactly is wrong with my body, speak the truth!" he said as soon as he spoke.
The bodyguard didn’t dare hide from him and told him the truth.
Nangong Xu’s pupils contracted slightly—
He never expected that after just one night, he would receive such hopeless news.
He was actually on the brink of death...
This news was undoubtedly a colossal blow. It struck him with even more intensity and pain than when Nangong Ruyue had died.
He wasn’t afraid of death.
He was just unwilling, deeply unwilling.
He had finally found the treasure, was just about to begin building his empire. He had endured for so many years, and was on the verge of success.
Yet now he was going to die.
This left him deeply unwilling and full of hate!
Nangong Xu forcibly suppressed the blood rushing in his chest, using great self-control to calm himself down.
Only in his cold eyes was there an indelible, deep-seated hatred.
"Come over here, I have something to instruct you..."
The head bodyguard respectfully stepped forward, "BOSS, please give your instructions!"
This bodyguard was the most loyal to Nangong Xu, willing to sell his soul for him.
