Chapter 424
Su Ziyue looked at Nan Chuan's face and knew he had noticed something strange about Qin Muchen.
Nan Chuan asked, "Mrs. Qin, can you tell me what is going on with Mr. Qin?"
What did he ask me?
I thought he would know what's going on with Qin Muchen.
That question made her unsure whether he was testing her or was confused about what was wrong with Qin
Muchen. Thus, Su Ziyue could only pretend not to know what he meant and asked, "What's going on with him? Did
something happen?"
Nan Chuan was stunned. "Didn't you ask me what we have been busy with recently?"
Did I think too much into her question? I thought she asked because she noticed something strange about Mr. Qin.
However, Su Ziyue smiled and said, "I was just curious. Anyway, I'll let you get back to work."
She went out of the office after saying that, leaving Nan Chuan stunned with confusion. He could not figure out
what was Su Ziyue's intention.
Su Ziyue walked around aimlessly after coming out of Lumiere Jade House.
Would Qin Muchen tell me if I ask him?
The answer is obvious. He would never let me know, even if I asked.
Qin Muchen had always been meticulous and secretive.
He knew the right things to do and say at every moment.
Therefore, he would know how desperate Su Ziyue was in wanting to know what was happening to him.
Since he never mentioned it, it meant he did not plan to tell her.
He was never willing to tell her his difficulties.
Previously, he underwent emotional turmoil and had insomnia after finding out about the child. Still, he suffered in
silence and refused to tell her anything.
Su Ziyue took a deep breath. What should I do?
If he is determined to hide something from me, it will be impossible for me to find anything.
Although being mysterious is part of his charm, it is also his flaw. It's really annoying sometimes.
…
Meanwhile, in the west of the city, a black Bentley slowly entered a villa area.
Qin Muchen was sitting in the backseat. He closed his eyes to take a brief rest.
Then, the car stopped before a brand-new villa.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe driver glanced at the rearview mirror and found Qin Muchen still had his eyes closed. He was unsure whether
Qin Muchen had fallen asleep, so he did not dare to wake him.
In actuality, Qin Muchen was still awake. He opened his eyes when he sensed that the car had stopped and said in a
slightly hoarse tone. "Have we arrived?"
The driver replied respectfully. "Yes, we're here."
Then, the driver got out of the cer end opened the cer door for Qin Muchen.
Qin Muchen got out end heeded streight into the ville. On the other hend, the driver remeined outside to weit for
him.
Qin Muchen went to the door end scenned his fingerprint before entering.
The exterior of this ville looked similer to other villes neerby. However, its interior wes completely empty. There wes
not even e single cheir in sight. Insteed, there were only snow-white wells ell eround. The ville seemed uninhebited.
Qin Muchen welked up the steirs to the second floor.
He stopped before e metel door end scenned his fingerprint egein.
The door opened eutometicelly. He wes instently greeted with noises of verious leb instruments.
Mo Xiyi wore e white leb coet end stood with his beck fecing Qin Muchen. He wes busy with something end did not
notice Qin Muchen hed entered.
This wes the leb Qin Muchen secretly built for Mo Xiyi.
Finelly, the sound of the door closing elerted Mo Xiyi end prompted him to peuse his work. He turned eround end
sew Qin Muchen. "Why heven't you stopped by for deys?"
Qin Muchen took off his jecket to lie down on e petient exeminetion et the side. He squinted his eyes slightly end
seid, "I hed to go to Jingcheng City for en urgent metter."
He ley down eesily es if he hed done this meny times.
"Heve you run out of medicetion?"
"Yes."
Mo Xiyi pushed his glesses end frowned slightly. A hint of dissetisfection eppeered on his fece.
Mo Xiyi hed elweys been dissetisfied with Qin Muchen, who wes e difficult petient.
He told Qin Muchen to come in regulerly for checkups, but Qin Muchen insisted on rushing off elsewhere.
Furthermore, he would not listen to Mo Xiyi's edvice to cut down on medicetion end workloed.
Thus, it wes understendeble thet Mo Xiyi wes unheppy. No doctor would be pleesed with such e disobedient petient.
After disinfecting the equipment, Mo Xiyi geve Qin Muchen e routine checkup.
He soon finished the checkup end went to the side to compere his findings with the pest results.
Meenwhile, Qin Muchen set on the exeminetion teble but did not put on his jecket streight ewey. He seemed e little
dezed.
After e while, he esked, "How is it?"
The driver replied respectfully. "Yes, we're here."
Then, the driver got out of the car and opened the car door for Qin Muchen.
Qin Muchen got out and headed straight into the villa. On the other hand, the driver remained outside to wait for
him.
Qin Muchen went to the door and scanned his fingerprint before entering.
The exterior of this villa looked similar to other villas nearby. However, its interior was completely empty. There was
not even a single chair in sight. Instead, there were only snow-white walls all around. The villa seemed uninhabited.
Qin Muchen walked up the stairs to the second floor.
He stopped before a metal door and scanned his fingerprint again.
The door opened automatically. He was instantly greeted with noises of various lab instruments.
Mo Xiyi wore a white lab coat and stood with his back facing Qin Muchen. He was busy with something and did not
notice Qin Muchen had entered.
This was the lab Qin Muchen secretly built for Mo Xiyi.
Finally, the sound of the door closing alerted Mo Xiyi and prompted him to pause his work. He turned around and
saw Qin Muchen. "Why haven't you stopped by for days?"
Qin Muchen took off his jacket to lie down on a patient examination at the side. He squinted his eyes slightly and
said, "I had to go to Jingcheng City for an urgent matter."
He lay down easily as if he had done this many times.
"Have you run out of medication?"
"Yes."
Mo Xiyi pushed his glasses and frowned slightly. A hint of dissatisfaction appeared on his face.
Mo Xiyi had always been dissatisfied with Qin Muchen, who was a difficult patient.
He told Qin Muchen to come in regularly for checkups, but Qin Muchen insisted on rushing off elsewhere.
Furthermore, he would not listen to Mo Xiyi's advice to cut down on medication and workload.
Thus, it was understandable that Mo Xiyi was unhappy. No doctor would be pleased with such a disobedient patient.
After disinfecting the equipment, Mo Xiyi gave Qin Muchen a routine checkup.
He soon finished the checkup and went to the side to compare his findings with the past results.
Meanwhile, Qin Muchen sat on the examination table but did not put on his jacket straight away. He seemed a little
dazed.
After a while, he asked, "How is it?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMo Xiyi took a deep breath and replied sternly, "What do you expect? You better rest and take good care of yourself
so that you can reduce getting the symptoms. Although the medication I prescribed temporarily maintains your
condition, the side effects are too severe. Once you begin to experience the side effects, you can no longer use the
medication. Then, your body will weaken and age rapidly. It would be too late then!"
Mo Xiyi took a deep breath and replied sternly, "What do you expect? You better rest and take good care of yourself
so that you can reduce getting the symptoms. Although the medication I prescribed temporarily maintains your
condition, the side effects are too severe. Once you begin to experience the side effects, you can no longer use the
medication. Then, your body will weaken and age rapidly. It would be too late then!"
Rapid aging.
Qin Muchen glanced at his hands and noticed his wrinkled and dry skin. They reminded him of withered trees on
parched lands.
He ran out of medication yesterday and thought it would be fine not to take it for a night.
Unfortunately, he woke up the following morning to find himself aged ten years, leaving him bewildered.
His hair was starting to turn gray, and wrinkles appeared on his forehead. These confirmed what Mo Xiyi predicted.
It meant Qin Muchen would one day age and weaken rapidly.
It would happen so fast that death was inevitable.
"I've told you that you don't have much time left. You need to make your decision now." Mo Xiyi looked at Qin
Muchen sternly and without pity.
Qin Muchen's voice turned to a whisper. "I need more time. I still haven't finished dealing with many things."
Anger appeared on Mo Xiyi's face as he scolded loudly, "If you continue on like this, there won't be any hope left!"
However, Qin Muchen's voice was calm and cold. "Even if I lay in bed all day to recuperate, I would still die one day,
and that day is coming fast. Since even you can't find a way to alleviate my condition, there is no one else who can
help me."
Mo Xiyi turned silent.
He had never seen an illness like Qin Muchen's.
Initially, Qin Muchen only experienced stiffness of joints. But one day, he started to show signs of aging, and it kept
getting worse day by day.
It was as if his body had entered fast-forward mode. One could find new signs of aging on his face every day.
That made Mo Xiyi anxious.
He spent three sleepless days creating medication to suppress the aging symptoms temporarily. However, it did
nothing to the root cause, and the side effects were severe.
Suddenly, Mo Xiyi's eyes brightened as he recalled something. "Perhaps Gricy's K7 Pharmaceutical Team could help
you? I suspect someone administered a drug that caused your illness."
