Chapter 939: Fresh YouthTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios


Xia Ling was a little shocked. She had never thought that finding him would bring him trouble.


“Then…” Feeling a little upset, she asked Nanny Zhou, “How has he been? How’s his energy, has he been eating his medicine on time and sleeping?”


Nanny Zhou told her one by one.


Xia Ling said, “I’ve been calling him these past few days, why has he not been picking up?”


Nanny Zhou said, “Electronic projects have radiation, the doctor instructed Mister not to use them. If you have anything you want to say just tell me, I will help you convey them to him.”


Xia Ling thought it over and found it made sense, so she instructed Nanny Zhou. “You have to take good care of him. I heard that the Wei family has a cure for cancer, but I’ve been blocked every time I went. Please tell him the news, maybe there’s still a chance to live…” She knew that the chances were slim, but it was just like a dying person grabbing desperately onto the last life-saving straw. If it was possible, then it was worth a try.


Nanny Zhou’s eyes lit up. “Really?”


“It should be true.” Xia Ling was not so sure herself. “Wei Shaoyin was the one who told me, saying that the family had discovered a cure long ago. But the effectiveness is not very stable, an estimated… one in a thousand chance of recovering. Furthermore, the ingredients are very rare. Also, there’s no use finding other people for it, we can only find Wei Lingnan.”


Unfortunately, Wei Lingnan was avoiding her, and even Wei Shaoyin could not come up with an idea.


Nanny Zhou was full of gratefulness. “Thank you. No matter what, news is better than no news at all. I will make sure that Mister hears about this. If he recovers, you will be his life savior!”


Xia Ling gave a few more instructions, looked up to look at the villa, then left.


The nanny car drove further away slowly.


Behind the second floor’s curtains, a man was staring outside the window, his expression slowly becoming solemn. The dimly lit table lamp shone like a bean, casting his originally tall figure against the rosewood bookshelf and grey-washed wall. It stretched and bent into a weird shape, making it look like the figure of an old man.


His face was haggard, his eyes weak.


Nanny Zhou softly walked to the door. “Mister, Miss Ling has left.”


He nodded. “Very good. Bring me the doc.u.ments that Chu Chen brought over, and prepare a video conference at five.”


Nanny Zhou could not bear it. “Mister, you have been handling your business these past few days, your body will not be able to take it! Why are you avoiding Miss Ling? With her around, she can convince you!”


Pei Ziheng shook his head, and said with a stronger tone, “Go move the doc.u.ments.”


Why would he not want Xia Ling’s company? Why would he not want her by his side to comfort him, accompanying him in his life’s final months? The thing was, he couldn’t. He could not let Xiao Ling see him in such a feeble state, just like a wilting towering tree. He was her G.o.d, her sky, her faith, and her dependence…


If he was going to leave this world, let it be of him as a strong man in her memories.


And not this sickly, fragile man who coughed with every few words.


He was deliberately avoiding her, not picking up her calls, not seeing her, just because he did not dare to meet her.


Nanny Zhou stared after him with tears in her eyes. “Mister, you have to at least take care of your body! Miss Ling just told me that the Wei family has a cure that could possibly cure your illness! How about we go beg the Wei family?”


“There is no ‘beg’ word in my Pei Ziheng’s dictionary,” he said.


If the prescription was easy to get, Xiao Ling would already have given it to him. If even her “Xia family’s Phoenix” background could not get it, then why should he waste his time trying? He would much rather use the energy to settle his family’s work, choose the next heir, and ensure a balance of power at the exchange.


With a plethora of things to handle, where would he get the energy to ponder over his illness?


Pei Ziheng went back to focus on his doc.u.ments.


After Xia Ling went to find him a few times, she slowly regained her logic, and one day, she went to the villa again, holding onto Nanny Zhou and asking, “Is he avoiding me deliberately?”


Nanny Zhou finally exploded. “Miss Ling, please go persuade him! Mister has been tiring himself out these days! He would not listen to the doctor’s word, nor Mister Chu’s words! The only person who can persuade him is you!” She intermittently complained about how hard Pei Ziheng had been working, crus.h.i.+ng his own limit. Even normal people would not be able to withstand such high work intensity, much less a sick person!


Nanny Zhou got down onto her knees. “Miss Ling, I beg you, please save Mister!”


Xia Ling listened with her heart in her throat. She had not imagined that the situation would have gotten this severe. She asked Nanny Zhou anxiously, “Where is Pei Ziheng now? I want to find him!”


Nanny Zhou wrote up a hospital address for her and said, “Mister has been working overnight these past few days. Yesterday, he suddenly coughed up blood and was sent to the hospital by an ambulance. His condition has just stabilized a little.”


As she continued talking, tears started to fall.


Xia Ling could not concern herself with comforting her. She rushed towards the nanny car and ordered the driver to head towards the hospital.


The hospital was very remote, and was not owned by the Pei family. Even the dignitaries were rarely seen. On the top floor of the hospital, even the VIP room’s conditions were much worse than those of big hospitals’. The floor in the dimly lit corridor was old and broken, and the floorboards squeaked when stepped on.


If not for the two familiar bodyguards standing in front of the hospital door, Xia Ling would have suspected that she had gone to the wrong place.


The bodyguard tried to stop her. “Miss Ling, Mister has ordered us to not let anyone disturb him.”


Xia Ling glared fiercely at them. “Is it the first day you know me? Don’t you know I have special privileges?” With that, she rushed inside without waiting for the bodyguards’ response.


The room was dead quiet.


Aside from Pei Ziheng lying on the hospital bed, beside the bed stood a fresh young man.


The young man wore a steel grey suit, and his eyebrows were slightly sharp, just like him. The two of them were talking, and they froze when they saw her come in. Pei Ziheng’s expression held a hint of surprise, and also an incomprehensible weariness. “Xiao Ling, why have you come?”


Xia Ling stared at him.


He did indeed look very feeble, having lost a ton of weight and seemingly lost his shape.


She could not help but think of the person in her memories that year in the orphanage full of blooming irises. She’d looked up at the broken gla.s.s of the princ.i.p.al’s office on the second floor, and that guy… tall and handsome, like a G.o.d.


How did he become like this?


Her nose soured, and she almost cried out.


Pei Ziheng also felt a little awkward, so he changed the topic and introduced to her. “Xiao Ling, this is Pei Xiu, Imperial Film’s CEO. He just came back from studying in Germany.”


Imperial Film was Imperial Entertainment’s parent-son company. This Pei Xiu was considered Pei Ziheng’s direct subordinate, and his position was very high. Hearing the introduction, Xia Ling was shocked at his youthfulness. But thinking about it, when Pei Ziheng inherited the whole Imperial Entertainment urgently, he was even younger, but of 16 years old, so it was not strange at all.
