Chapter 446: Hereditary Disease

Yan Yuanfei’s lips curled up bitterly. “Then tell me, what better way do I have?”

Ling Sheng did not know either. She had not experienced such a thing before. However, shouldn’t two people in love be honest with each other?

Upon seeing the young lady fall silent, he added, “If you were like I am now, without a healthy body and plagued by a malignant disease, would you be willing to let the person you love watch you get weaker day by day? Would you want to see him suffer like you?”

Some things were not unimaginable, just impossible.

“I don’t know.” Ling Sheng hesitated. If she was really as he had said, could she really tell the person she loved everything and make him suffer with her?

Perhaps he would stop loving her after she was sick for a long time. As the saying went, there was no filial child before a hospital bed. Over time, he would be tortured until he got tired. Love would then become resentment.

One of them was sitting in a wheelchair, while the other was squatting beside it. Ling Sheng could smell the fragrance of the tea. It was very fragrant. She sniffed and said in a soft voice, “Longjing tea! It smells delicious!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Yuanfei’s hands, which were crossed over his knees, suddenly tightened. His body was tense, but his eyes were misty and sparkling.

Even though he tried his best, he could not smell anything.

Longjing tea!

So it was really after-rain Longjing tea!

In the past, she had yearned to cook tea and listen to the rain and wind, but he had been unable to give her that.

Now that she was alone, he could only watch from afar.

“Do you believe that a family could be entrusted with the responsibility of being a guardian for thousands of years, shouldering the prosperity and decline of the entire country?” Yan Yuanfei said calmly.

Ling Sheng shook her head. “No.”

Yan Yuanfei’s gaze was distant as he said, “I don’t believe it either. Then do you believe that the male members of a family could not live past 35? That at the age of 30, their bodies would suddenly collapse one day without any warning, making them gradually lose mobility, all five senses, and the ability to think until they died?” Yan Yuanfei asked.

He did not know why he was telling the young lady this, but at that moment, he really needed someone to listen to his heartfelt thoughts.

Yes, other than the eldest brother and Ah Yan, the rest of the brothers did not know why he had made that choice back then.

It was his body that had sounded the alarm. This could not drag on anymore. He did not want them to be worried and scared for him when he inevitably collapsed suddenly and remained forever bedridden.

The big families that stood at the apex of China all knew that the male members of the Yan Family died young, but no one knew the real cause of their deaths.

In the past thousands of years, the Yan Family had only had a sole male heir. Whenever their ancestors had found out that their bodies were collapsing, they would choose their method of death and leave after faking their death.

For thousands of years, the ancestors of the Yan Family had been searching for a way to extend their lives and find the cause of the illness. However, they had yet to find a clue.

He had initially thought that he would never reach this stage, but he could not escape in the end.

“I don’t believe you. It should be a family hereditary disease!” Ling Sheng knew that he was talking about himself and felt a little sad. “Uncle, medical care is very advanced nowadays. Didn’t you check what went wrong?”
