“Dr. Xia? I see Xu Wen is fine. You should go back now,” Yang Xuan didn’t want anyone else to know about her daughter’s situation, especially since Gu Zhuo had just said there was nothing between them.

But Xu Wen understood Xia Yu’s intention. If he didn’t stay, she would suffer later. “Mom, I did feel unwell earlier. I’m not sure what I drank,” Xu Wen hinted, wanting Xia Yu to check.

Since Xu Wen said this, Yang Xuan had no choice but to let Xia Yu in. He then used the excuse of needing to examine Xu Wen to make Yang Xuan leave the room.

“Kneel down!” Xia Yu impatiently sat on the bed.

Xu Wen immediately crawled off the bed and knelt beside his legs, “This time, I really…”

She knew that if she didn’t try to explain, Xia Yu would certainly punish her, but he didn’t want to hear it. “Fool! Did you think others wouldn’t notice what you did?” He kicked her in the stomach. “With so many important people around, you dared to make a move? Do you think they’re all idiots?”

Thinking about the possibility of Peter punishing him made Xia Yu furious enough to want to kick Xu Wen to death, but he couldn’t do that now because her identity was still useful.

He tried to control his emotions, “Forget about this week’s antidote.”

“No, please don’t!” Xu Wen quickly clung to his knees, “Dr. Xia, you know I was just confused. You can’t do this to me.”

“Just confused?” Xia Yu sneered, gripping her chin tightly. “I know what you’re thinking. If you still want to be Miss Xu, you’ll do as I say and stop acting behind my back!”

Xu Wen continued to cry but said nothing. She knew she needed to stay alive as Miss Xu.

“I will listen to you, but I can’t stand it. You know my situation best. I can’t watch Song Fan be so happy.” Xu Wen tearfully kissed Xia Yu’s fingers, clinging to him.

She knew how to arouse his desires. Sure enough, Xia Yu began to relax, his hand roaming over her body.

An hour later, Xia Yu finally took a pill from his pocket, “Just this once.”

Xu Wen quickly swallowed the pill, knowing she had dodged a bullet.

“You and the Gu Family are to be engaged. You know what to do,” Xia Yu said, dressing before leaving.

Xu Wen, covered in marks, clenched her fists. Once she got the antidote, she would never keep Xia Yu around.

The evening ended unhappily. The Xu family had no heart to continue, and the guests, sensing something was wrong, began to leave.

As Song Fan was leaving, she noticed Peter sitting in a wheelchair, waiting at the door.

Peter raised an eyebrow, looking at the weakened Gu Chen, “President Gu, you’re really tough. Song Fan, wasn’t my information accurate?”

“Thank you,” Song Fan expressed her gratitude, knowing this wasn’t over.

“A thank you isn’t enough,” Peter smiled, looking at the two, “Song Fan, I hope you’ll consider our cooperation.”

Without waiting for her reply, he gestured for his people to push him away. Charlie stood behind him, watching them with an unclear expression.

Charlie knew Song Fan’s capabilities but was unsure of Peter’s intentions. If Song Fan pretended to cooperate with Peter and sabotaged the surgery, wouldn’t the Brown family become his?

With their own agendas, everyone left the banquet. Worried about Gu Chen’s poison, Song Fan got into the car with him.

As soon as they were in the car, Gu Chen couldn’t hold on any longer. The antidote Song Fan had given him could barely keep him stable; he couldn’t let people know he was poisoned.

He collapsed onto Song Fan, using his last bit of strength to say, “To the small villa.”

The driver started the car, heading to Gu Chen’s villa in the suburbs.

Song Fan sat upright, supporting Gu Chen. As she checked his pulse, her expression darkened. The poison in Gu Chen’s body had relapsed.
