Chapter 711: Illness Exposed

Zhou Xin smiled, “Since Ms. Qiao is down here now, let’s go eat in the dining room.”

Qiao Qing nodded.

The firefox hopped from Jun Yexuan to Qiao Qing’s shoulder and curled its tail around her arm.

“Ack, ack, ack!”

My owner is explosively cool!

…

After everyone ate, Qiao Qing continued to read her books while Jun Yexuan dealt with his work.

Since Qi Yunyan took care of the Qi Corporation’s day-to-day business, Qi Yusen was rather relaxed.

With the free time he had, he gathered different medical books and machinery for Qiao Qing. Somehow, he managed to build a library and a lab in Leng Yan’s castle.

There was a tight time restraint after all. Compared to these two guys, who would have to learn from 0 about medicine, Qiao Qing had studied for three years and was much more capable with new knowledge.

The boys had no use other than to cheer her on.

Around noon, a headline trended in all the corporate and entertainment news.

#confirmed! Mr. Leng Yan, the CEO of the Leng Corporation, is terminally ill and will soon be buried – Mother of the Leng family reveals.

The comment section exploded.

When Zhou Xin saw the news, he almost gritted his teeth to pieces. He wanted to chop that woman to pieces.

But he didn’t have the energy to be angry after that.

Because the phones started to ring then. The shareholders of the company, the executives, the partners… everyone who’s financially involved with the Leng family had called. His phone almost explode.

He was merely a butler yet he received so many calls.

It wasn’t hard to imagine just how busy Leng Yan’s subordinates in the company were.

Just then, Yu Mo called.

He hit connect and from the other line, Yu Mo’s voice was full of anxiety, “Uncle Zhou, is the young master around? The company is a mess! All the big dogs are here and they want the young master to step out and say something.”

“A bunch of foreign investors want to back out. Can you ask the young master what he wants to do? I can’t hold on for much longer.”

Zhou Xin’s vision went dark. He had no time to think and dashed towards Leng Yan’s room.

In Leng Yan’s room, he found Leng Yan awake. However, Zhou Xin was too afraid to approach him.

After all, if Ms. Qiao cannot find a cure, then the young master doesn’t have many days left.

The young master now was at peace and was so tranquil. Zhou Xin just wanted him to remain this way, to remain happy. Zhou Xin wanted him to go with a relaxed heart and not be bothered by these mundane annoyances.

Just as he thought it over, Leng Yan laughed, “This day was bound to come. I can face it.”

So the young master already knew.

Zhou Xin’s heart was full of sorrow. He watched Zhou Xin grow up and he himself was without children. Therefore, Leng Yan was basically his son.

These days, his heart broke way more than other people’s.

“Young master.” Zhou Xin went up to him, “How about we put some makeup on you like last time, and lie to these people to calm them down? We could at least make through the next little while.”

If he is going to pass away soon, he should feel at peace.

Leng Yan smiled and shook his head, “There’s no need. Take my will and all the documents I prepared to my lawyer. Do what you have to do with the company.”

“Young master!” Zhou Xin was in shock, “We aren’t at that point yet! Ms. Qiao is looking for ways to save you! You can’t give up on yourself first!”

Leng Yan shook his head, “I can’t place all my hope on that small possibility. Since the truth is out there now, it’s better for us to get ahead and take care of everything properly. Only then, can I spend my next days in peace.”
