Chapter 489 There is a Time Bomb in Your Brain

At the hospital.

It was the best day for Xiao Yunyun since she was in the medical field.

Her beloved work finally won her mother’s support.

In the morning, Xiao Yunyun rushed into the office in high spirits. She put on the white coat and was ready for a day’s work but then she was asked to listen to an expert’s consultation by a senior.

The cardiac surgery in the Eighth Hospital was well-known throughout the country and the experts were all authorities in cardiac surgery. This consultation was a good opportunity for Xiao Yunyun to gain knowledge.

As expected, she had learned a lot in an hour.

Once she left the meeting room, Xiao Yunyun thought about the patients the experts discussed about with her head lowered. She bumped into a young nurse when she walked out of the elevator and all the stuff in the nurse’s tray fell down.

“Sorry! Sorry!” Xiao Yunyun apologized and knelt down to help her pick things up. Then she occasionally lifted her head to look at the nurse. “Did you get hurt?”

Before the nurse could answer, Xiao Yunyun glanced a familiar figure. She saw a slim figure… it was Xu Youning!

But didn’t Xu Youning return to Kang Ruicheng’s side? Why did she show up at the hospital?

“I’m doing my internship in cardiac surgery. My name is Xiao Yunyun. “I have something to do so I gotta run now. If you have anything, you can find me in the department of cardiac surgery!”

Then Xiao Yunyun ran in the direction Xu Youning had gone to. But moments later, Xu Youning’s figure was completely lost in the crowd on the first floor of the hospital and there was no way to find her.

Xiao Yunyun stood in the crowd and looked around. She saw doctors and nurses in a hurry, a long line waiting in front of the charging window, a pharmacy and all kinds of patients and their families…

But she just didn’t manage to see her.

She helplessly lowered her shoulders.

Just then, she suddenly saw Xu Youning’s back, as she walked normally. She shouldn’t have seen her. Therefore, Xu Youning didn’t mean to avoid her on purpose.

There was the great likelihood that she was another person, someone who looked like Xu Youning.

Since Xu Youning was back with Kang Ruicheng and she made up her mind to help him fight against her cousin-in-law, why would she show up at the hospital where Xiao Yunyun worked?

Having that thought in mind, Xiao Yunyun gave up and turned back to the department of cardiac surgery.

After her figure completely vanished in the crowd, Xu Youning showed up from behind a huge circular column.

Xiao Yunyun didn’t see wrong. It was indeed Xu Youning.

After getting back to City A, Xu Youning’s dizziness and vagueness in her eyes became worse and worse. She worried that something might be wrong with herself but she didn’t want to let Kang Ruicheng know. So she didn’t use Kang Ruicheng’s resources for medical aid and used a fake ID in this hospital.

After registering for an expert, the doctor asked her to take a few examination. Finally, when her got the results and wanted to go back to the doctor, she saw Xiao Yunyun coming out from the opposite elevator.

Then she remembered it was the hospital where Xiao Yunyun worked.

Luckily, Xiao Yunyun absentmindedly bumped into a nurse. She used the time when Xiao Yunyun knelt down to quickly walk away and hide herself behind the column.

If she were faced with Xiao Yunyun, she didn’t know how to look at her in the eye. Nor did she know how to explain her status.

Thinking about it, Xu Youning tightly held the examining report and went to find the doctor in the Neural department.

The doctor looked at the report and asked casually, “Miss, relax. You seem young. Are you here by yourself? “Where is your family?”

A doctor, especially a specialist in a big hospital who had to treat more than a hundred patients a day, wouldn’t chat randomly with a patient. They didn’t care whether the patient was there by herself, either.

Unless her situation was more than serious.

Xu Youning looked directly into the doctor’s eyes and said, “I have no family. “Doctor, what is wrong with me? Just tell me.” She had heard the worst news and lost her most important person. There was nothing she couldn’t take.

The doctor took up the X-ray and spotted two points, “According to the examination, your head has been struck hard many times and two blood clots bumps were formed in your brain. One of it compresses your visual nerve, so your eyesight becomes vague sometimes. If he clot becomes bigger, this will happen more frequently.”

Xu Youning nodded confusedly.

The doctor asked with certainty, “Except for the vagueness of sight, you’ve felt dizzy too, right?”

Xu Youning admitted.

The doctor sighed and pointed at the other place he had circled out, “This clot is the reason why you feel dizzy. It compresses the veins in your brain and has a special location. So even if you want to get rid of it by surgeries, it is likely that it won’t be successful.”

“If…” Xu Youning sounded careful, “What if I don’t go through surgery?”

“If you don’t have the surgery, it will be like having a time bomb installed in your brain.” The doctor looked solemn, “It can cause the veins to burst and lead to your death at any time.”

Xu Youning was not afraid of death.

But she had very important things to do now. She couldn’t die yet.

Barely a minute after, Xu Youning’s heart turned cold and her voice sounded empty, “If I choose to take the surgery and it fails, what will happen to me?”

“In the best case scenario, you will be left in a coma forever. In the worst case, you will die.” The doctor closed the file and passed it to Xu Youning, “Miss, as a doctor, I suggest that you to stay in the hospital and get treated right away. Maybe your situation will be improve and your surgery will have a greater chance to succeed. “Of course, it’s up to your determination.”

Xu Youning’s hands and feet turned totally cold; she was at a standstill.

She didn’t know how long she had been in a blank. Then she took over the file and said, “Thank you, doctor. I’ll go back to think about it and I’ll contact you later.”

The doctor nodded and walked Xu Youning to the door of the office.

Later when she recalled that memory, Xu Youning completely forgot how she had walked out of the hospital.

The only thing she remembered was the hot summer sunshine burning everyone’s skins. But she still felt extremely cold.

Everyone had to experience death. She hadn’t thought about it when she was little. Then her parents suddenly died and she began to accept the concept of illness and death. Then she followed Kang Ruicheng. She had thought that she might die at any moment because she wasn’t strong enough.

But she had never thought she would possibly die because the veins in her brain could burst open, although it sounded a bit interesting.

What made her feel so cold was that her own self, who seemed to be complete, was only one step away from death. But she couldn’t get treated yet. She could only go on according to her plan.

She didn’t know how much time she had left, so she had to rush.

Xu Youning stopped hesitating and rushed to the Su Group by car.

The Su Group was currently in Kang Ruicheng’s control. Almost all the main leaders belonged to Kang Ruicheng. Su Hongyuan and the old men on board couldn’t do anything against him.

Xu Youning knew Kang Ruicheng’s purpose, but she didn’t care. Anyway, Su Jianan had cut off ties with Su Hongyuan.

Having arrived at the Su Group, Xu Youning walked directly to the president’s office.

The secretary only saw a new look with a firm expression. She hurriedly stood up and stopped her by the door, “Miss, who are you? “Do you have an appointment with Manager Kang?”

Xu Youning’s cold eyes fell on the secretary’s face. “Fuck off.”

The secretary felt the coldness spreading and couldn’t help taking her hand back.

Xu Youning pushed and the door of the CEO’s office opened. She went directly in.

Kang Ruicheng recognized Xu Youning’s footsteps. He lifted his head and looked at her smilingly. “Why didn’t you tell me in advance?”

Xu Youning looked quite surprised. “Did I interrupt you?”

Kang Ruicheng unfolded his hands to prove his innocence and walked to Xu Youning. “There are a lot of files and trifles waiting for me. For me, you are the only good news today.”

He placed his hands on Xu Youning’s shoulders and kneaded them with proper effort as if he was trying to convey an affectionate message.

Xu Youning didn’t know well. She stepped backwards and got out of Kang Ruicheng’s hands.

“What’s wrong?” Kang Ruicheng asked in amazement.

“Before you went back to City A, you had been preparing to get rid of Mu Sijue. After I went back to City A, you always said you were going to get rid of him. But now, it’s been a whole year.” Xu Youning coldly looked at Kang Ruicheng. “Why haven’t you done anything?”

Kang Ruicheng didn’t answer. Instead he asked, “Are you in a rush?”

“Yes!” Xu Youning said seriously, “Once I get to think that Mu Sijue is still alive in this world, I feel awful.”

Kang Ruicheng deeply looked at Xu Youning. He smiled and pressed her down to sit on the couch; then he poured a glass of water for her.

Xu Youning wasn’t willing to drink.

Then Kang Ruicheng said calmly, “We will take action soon.”

Suddenly, there was brightness in Xu Youning’s eyes. She cheerfully stared at Kang Ruicheng. “What action?”

Kang Ruicheng passed a copy of the plan to Xu Youning. “We will bid on a land along with Lu Enterprises.”

Xu Youning took a glimpse at the plan. “Why do you need it?”

“For us, it’s of no use.” While he spoke, Kang Ruicheng’s lips formed a grim smile. “But it’s valuable for Lu Enterprises.” “The reason why I’m in the bidding is to prevent Lu Boyan from getting the land. Even if he gets it in the end, I’ll make him pay more. “Besides, you should go there to bid for me.”

There were plenty of great helpers in Kang Ruicheng’s lead, but he asked Xu Youning to bid. He just wanted to see whether Xu Youning could deal with Mu Sijue and Lu Boyan cruelly.

Xu Youning knew what Kang Ruicheng wanted to test but she didn’t show it. She just nodded. “Okay, I have nothing to do these days. What is the limit of our budget?”

Another smile appeared by Kang Ruicheng’s lips. “There’s no limit. As long as Lu Enterprises bids, you can keep on bidding.”

Xu Youning pretended to be surprised and she blinked. “So I’ll just keep bidding more?”

“No, just a bit more than them.” Kang Ruicheng gave a card to Xu Youning. “Pay for the deposit with this.”

Xu Youning took it with her slender fingers and slightly got up. “I know how to do it.” Then, she turned to leave.

There was something in Kang Ruicheng’s eyes. He reached out his hand and caught Xu Youning’s waist. With a pull, he easily got Xu Youning back into his arms.

Xu Youning lifted her head and looked into Kang Ruicheng’s deep eyes…
