Chapter 607 - Parasite Acting Up

Elder Dou smiled in gratification and nodded. “Good child, you have to remember that a husband and wife should strive to understand each other, help each other and encourage each other so that the family will remain happy and last for a long time.”

“Grandpa, we understand.”

Elder Dou was an influential figure in the education field and each and every word of his was considered to be wise words. As they listened to Elder Dou’s earnest teachings, Lu Jingye and Zi Yi were not the only ones who benefited a lot. Even the others who were present benefited.

However, no one noticed that ​​Dou Xiangling, who purposely stood at the back of the crowd, was feeling uncomfortable. Her expression changed greatly and the pain of something gnawing at her heart made her head feel like it was exploding due to the pain.

Her complexion turned white in an instant and her body trembled uncontrollably.

However, she knew that she could not let anyone discover her condition. Otherwise, Zi Yi’s wedding would certainly get delayed.

She controlled her instinct of wanting to cover her chest and gritted her teeth as she bit her tongue in an attempt not to groan in pain. However, large beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

She had to leave right away…

“Xiangling, what’s wrong?”

A gentlemanly voice sounded in her ears and Dou Xiangling quivered as she looked at Ian in horror.

Ian was frightened by her current appearance.

“Dou…”

When Dou Xiangling grabbed his hand, he forgot the words he wanted to say.

His heart had trembled inexplicably.

He heard Dou Xiangling’s begging voice. “Ian, can you bring me away quietly?”

Ian looked at how pale her complexion was and the beads of sweat that were trickling down her forehead. He furrowed his brows and was extremely worried. “Is there something very wrong with your body?”

Dou Xiangling was on the verge of collapsing and her heart hurt so much that she wanted to die right away, not to mention the people around her today had kept asking about her condition. She grabbed Ian’s hand and said, “Ia… Ian… Plea… Please… don’t let everyone know and bring me to the backyard.”

While Dou Xiangling was speaking, blood trickled from the corner of her mouth and Ian felt his heart clench tightly.

“Dou…”

“Shhh… don’t make a sound, please.”

Ian could not resist Dou Xiangling’s weak and helpless appearance. He only hesitated for two seconds and relented. He put his arm around her waist and went behind her.

When the two of them retreated to the door, he lifted her up in a princess carry and strode towards the backyard.

As soon as they arrived at an empty corner, Dou Xiangling finally could not take it as she clutched her chest.

At the same time, she released a groan.

“Xiangling, what’s the matter with you?”

Ian’s voice changed at the sight of her current appearance. “Where are you hurting? Why don’t I… bring you to the doctor…? No, wait… You look like you’re in extreme pain and I think only Zi Yi can treat…”

“No… I-an…” The moment she heard Zi Yi’s name, her spare hand randomly shot out and grabbed anywhere she could. She said as she panted, “Plea… please. Don’t… let everyone… know.”

Ian’s frown tightened. “Then I’ll send you to the hospital right now.”

“No… no…”

Ian was worried sick.

“Your condition seems extremely bad, if you don’t get treatment, what if you… What should I do?” Ian could not bear to say anything bad, but his expression became unusually serious.

“No… we can’t let… Yiyi delay her wedding.”

Dou Xiangling was afraid that Ian would alarm everyone. She was so anxious that tears started flowing out. Coupled with the pain she was feeling, her tears burst out directly.

Ian had never seen Dou Xiangling cry like this before and he was at a complete loss.

“Xiangling, don’t cry. I won’t call them, but you have to let me bring you to the hospital.”

“No…”

“Otherwise, I’ll go and call for Zi.”

Dou Xiangling was in so much pain that she had difficulty breathing. She was already in pain and yet, she was being threatened by him. She put her head into his chest and cried while her lips trembled.

Looking at her helpless and desperate look, Ian’s heart unconsciously clenched tightly.

He was so anxious that he felt like jumping through the roof.

Just then, he could hear the sound of two sets of footsteps coming over.

Dou Xiangling did not hear the sound of the footsteps that were approaching.

Ian was overjoyed. As long as someone else discovered it, it would mean that he was not the one who revealed her condition.

When he saw the two individuals who came over, Ian widened his eyes in surprise.

Unexpectedly, it was Zi Yi and behind her was Dou Xiangling who was helping her carry her dress…?

Ian looked down at the woman in his embrace who was shaking uncontrollably in pain and was about to lose consciousness. He then looked towards Dou Xiangling walking behind Zi Yi.

Just as he was about to speak, Zi Yi had already arrived in front of them.

She said to Ian, “Carry my cousin and follow me.”

Ian stared at Dou Xiangling who was helping to carry her dress and he only managed to react after a few seconds had passed.

“Zi, this is your robot.”

“Yes.”

Zi Yi’s strides were very wide and she said as she walked, “There’s not much time left. Hurry up.”

Even though Ian did not know how Zi Yi had fooled everyone and appeared here at this time, he picked up the pace while carrying Dou Xiangling as he heard what she said.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the room Zi Yi stayed in.

Zi Yi motioned to Ian. “Put her down on the bed.”

Ian followed what she said.

Zi Yi spoke to the air. “Shadow.”

Shadow appeared. “Master.”

“Immediately give my cousin a full-body examination.”

“Yes.”

Following that, while Ian was looking at the scene with a shocked gaze, Shadow stretched out a hand and placed its hand a few centimeters away from Dou Xiangling’s body as it moved up from the bottom of her feet.

Zi Yi brought out the virtual screen.

The image that appeared on the virtual screen was similar to that of an X-ray.

Ian stared at Zi Yi and his brain seemed to have exploded.

This type of technology was simply impossible in this world.

Zi Yi pursed her lips as she stared at the virtual screen with a grim expression. She did not pay attention to Ian’s gaze at all.

When Shadow’s hand reached the area of Dou Xiangling’s heart, Zi Yi suddenly called him to stop.

Ian’s heart trembled and he was busy looking at the virtual screen.

“Oh heavens!” When he saw a worm creeping around Dou Xiangling’s heart, Ian unconsciously gasped.

“What’s that, why is there a worm on her heart?”

“I don’t know, for the time being.”

As soon as she said that, Zi Yi said to Shadow, “Analyze that worm.”

“Starting analysis.”

As time passed by, the screen was still showing that it was in the process of analyzing.

Just then, Ian’s phone suddenly rang.

He was surprised and quickly took out his phone to take a look.

When he saw the Caller ID, he quickly turned to Zi Yi and said, “Zi, Lu is calling.”

“Answer it and turn on the loudspeaker.”

Ian answered the phone call and turned on the loudspeaker.

Lu Jingye’s voice sounded on the other end. “Yiyi, how much longer will you be on your side?”

Zi Yi looked at the screen and answered, “The pants are a little hard to wear. Wait for another two minutes.”

Ian looked at how Zi Yi answered with a straight face. He finally knew how she managed to deceive everyone and come to the backyard.

This woman’s excuse was that she went to the washroom.

Lu Jingye responded with an ok. His voice was so gentle that it made one unconsciously feel at ease. “No rush, we still have time. Don’t get your skirt dirty.” Having said that, he hung up the phone.

Ian opened his mouth in shock.

He did not expect such words from Lu Jingye.

Zi Yi glanced at him and casually said, “What are you thinking about? Ah Jing knows what I’m doing.”
