Chapter 1024 - Mist Disperses; Truth Reveals (2)

“Boohoo…”

Mumu’s acting skills were on full display. His innocent eyes were covered with a layer of tears, and his tender little face looked particularly sad.

Seeing this, Kang Ruicheng didn’t doubt it at all, and his expression became increasingly tense.

He took Mumu’s hand and ordered Dongzi coldly, “Contact the doctor immediately!” Then, he left the study with Mumu and went straight to Xu Youning’s room.

Xu Youning was curled up under the quilt and only her head showed. Her face was so pale that it was a little scary.

Mumu knew that Xu Youning was pretending, but he was still shocked by her look at the moment. He cried even harder.

Kang Ruicheng didn’t have time to comfort Mumu. He quickly walked toward Xu Youning and asked, “A Ning, how are you feeling?”

Xu Youning slowly opened her eyes, which were usually full of vitality, but at the moment, they looked dull and listless.

She shook her head and said helplessly, “I feel very bad…”

Xu Youning was naturally stubborn. If the situation wasn’t so bad, she would not have admitted to feeling so poorly.

Kang Ruicheng sat down by the bed and reached into the quilt to hold Xu Youning’s hand. He comforted her. “A Ning, don’t worry. I’ll contact the doctor right away.”

Xu Youning was so weak that she couldn’t speak. She just nodded and looked at Mumu.

The plan she and Mumu had come up with was that she would put on a show and get Kang Ruicheng to contact the doctor for her.

She did not expect that after she laid on the bed, the pain would become real. She felt more and more uncomfortable.

The doctor was right. Her condition was rapidly worsening and seemed to be out of control.

Now, she only hoped that Mumu wouldn’t see it so that she wouldn’t scare him.

Mumu was also looking at Xu Youning.

He remembered clearly when Xu Youning suffered an attack and slowly understood that Xu Youning was not pretending. She was really feeling bad.

“Liar, didn’t you say that it would just be an act!”

Mumu cried even harder. He walked to the bed and looked at Xu Youning with tear-filled eyes.

Xu Youning reached out and stroked the little guy’s face. “Don’t cry. I’ll be fine.”

Mumu sobbed and nodded, but couldn’t stop crying.

Kang Ruicheng was already anxious. When he saw Mumu crying, the anxiety in his heart instantly swelled like a balloon, and he shouted through the door, “Dongzi!”

Dongzi ran in with his mobile phone in his hand. Without time to catch his breath, he said, “The doctor just answered the phone.”

Kang Ruicheng grabbed the phone, but before he could speak, the doctor’s calm voice came over the phone. “Mr. Kang, what’s wrong?”

“A Ning is feeling very uncomfortable now!” Kang Ruicheng gritted his teeth and asked him slowly and grimly, “What’s going on? Do you have a solution?”

The doctor seemed to be used to it and calmly said, “Ms. Xu’s condition is getting worse. It’s normal for her to often feel uncomfortable.”

Kang Ruicheng’s patience had run out. He slammed the table and said, “Doctor, my question is, do you have a way to help? I don’t want to hear your nonsense!”

“A way?”

The doctor thought for a moment and suddenly realized that he should talk to Xu Youning in person.

As for the excuse of meeting Xu Youning, he could casually come up with a reasonable one.

Fang Heng cleared his throat and said in a professional and unquestionable tone, “Mr. Kang, your description is too vague. If it is convenient, I would like to examine Ms. Xu in person.”

Kang Ruicheng did not answer the doctor immediately.

Xu Youning was now in the Kang family residence, which was his shelter in City A. He was determined to start from this place and slowly restore the Kang family’s glory.

As a result, this place contained too much information that could not be leaked out.

No people except his men could easily enter the Kang family residence.

If he let the doctor in, it would be an exception.

However, if he did not allow this exception, Xu Youning had to endure the torment of the pain.

Mumu grabbed Kang Ruicheng’s sleeve and pleaded, “Daddy, please let the doctor examine Auntie Youning.”

Even if Kang Ruicheng could watch Xu Youning suffering in pain, he couldn’t refuse Mumu. He closed his eyes and finally said to Fang Heng on the other end of the phone, “Get ready. I’ll ask someone to pick you up from the hospital.”

Fang Heng’s voice was as relaxed as usual. “Mr. Kang, I am ready.”

Kang Ruicheng hung up the phone and gripped Xu Youning’s hand. “A Ning, hang on. The doctor will come and examine you right away.”

Xu Youning just closed her eyes, indicating that she heard it.

She really did not have the strength to speak.

Mumu ran over with a serious face and promised, “Auntie Youning, I’ll stay with you.”

Xu Youning felt warm in her heart. She raised her hand with all her strength and touched Mumu’s head. “Thank you.”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a subordinate outside called Kang Ruicheng. “Brother Cheng, I need you to come out for something.”

Kang Ruicheng was worried about leaving Xu Youning alone in the room. He subconsciously looked at her with hesitation in his eyes.

“Go ahead. I’m just not feeling well. It’s not a big deal.” Xu Youning looked at Mumu and slowly smiled, “Besides, Mumu will accompany me.”

Kang Ruicheng said, “I’ll be back as soon as possible.”

Dongzi left with Kang Ruicheng too, leaving only Xu Youning and Mumu in the room.

Mumu looked at Xu Youning uneasily and worriedly. “Auntie Youning, how do you feel?”

“Shh—” Xu Youning shushed Mumu and said with a smile, “Have you forgotten that we are acting? So I’m pretending.”

Mumu blinked and said while feeling aggrieved, “I know you’re not pretending…”

Xu Youning didn’t expect her bluff to be exposed, so she didn’t know how to deal with it.

If it were in the past, Mumu would definitely cooperate with her. Why did the little guy suddenly become disobedient?

Mumu tucked Xu Youning in and said, “Take a good rest first. The doctor will be here soon.”

Xu Youning touched the little guy’s head and tried her best to comfort him. “I’m really fine. You don’t have to worry, okay?”

Mumu nodded obediently and sat beside Xu Youning to accompany her.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door. Dongzi pushed the door open and led Fang Heng into the room.

Fang Heng was not in the hospital, so he was not in a white gown. Instead, he was dressed in a well-matched outfit and carried an exquisite case in his hand. He didn’t look like a doctor in the hospital, but more like an academic elite.

Mumu ran over and looked at Fang Heng expectantly. “Doctor, please take a look at Auntie Youning!”

Fang Heng had an inexplicable good impression of this little guy. He smiled at him and said, “Okay, I’ll examine Ms. Xu right away.”

Mumu’s clear and adorable eyes blinked and he pulled Fang Heng to the side of the bed.

Fang Heng sat down and asked directly without any pleasantries, “Ms. Xu, what’s wrong with you exactly? Where do you feel uncomfortable?”

Xu Youning said, “I feel very tired all over.”

Fang Heng looked intently at Xu Youning, thought for a moment, and asked, “Did you take the right dosage of medicine I prescribed on time?”

Xu Youning looked into Fang Heng’s eyes and nodded. “Yes, it’s not as bad as I thought.”

A wisp of astonishment flashed across Feng Heng’s eyes. In less than half a second, this astonishment transformed into a faint smile of satisfaction.

Others might not understand the deeper meaning in Xu Youning’s words.

However, he knew it very well.

He specially prepared those drugs for Xu Youning. They looked no different from ordinary ones on the surface, but in fact, they were vitamins.

Xu Youning deliberately emphasized that it was not as bad as she had imagined, which showed that she knew it was vitamins inside.

That was to say, Xu Youning knew who he was and they didn’t have to guess each other’s identities anymore.

Seeing that Fang Heng was silent, Mumu thought that Fang Heng was doubting Xu Youning’s words, so he rushed over to help and said, “Doctor, I can prove that Auntie Youning took the medicine on time! Hmm, and Uncle Dongzi also saw Auntie Youning taking the medicine!”

After that, Mumu looked at Dongzi and urged, “Uncle Dongzi, say something!”

Dongzi looked at Fang Heng and asked doubtfully, “Doctor, Ms. Xu did take the medicine as you said. Why does she feel uncomfortable instead?”

Fang Heng squatted down first and patted Mumu’s head. “Thank you. I see.”

He sincerely thanked Mumu. Because of this little guy’s words, he could be more sure that Xu Youning already knew who he was.

After that, Fang Heng stood up and looked back at Dongzi.

“What I’ve prescribed is not an elixir that can cure her immediately. Ms. Xu is seriously ill. My pills can’t relieve her condition so quickly. She had a very obvious disease reaction now, so she can only hold on. When she wakes up tomorrow, she will continue to take the medicine. A week later, she will have a check-up and then we can see the effect of the medicine.”

Dongzi’s face darkened. “Do you mean that you want Ms. Xu to endure it?”

“Or else?” Fang Heng retorted, “What do you want?”

Dongzi stared at Fang Heng angrily and said, “As a doctor, don’t you think you are being rather irresponsible?”

“Sorry. I just think that you lack medical common sense,” Fang Heng sneered and looked at Dongzi arrogantly and said sarcastically. “Even if I have a way to cure Ms. Xu, a little pain is inevitable in the treatment process. You can’t ask me to treat her without her experiencing any pain all the way. Also, since you don’t know anything, you’d better keep quiet.”

Dongzi was young and impetuous, so he couldn’t stand such provocation. However, Fang Heng was Xu Youning’s doctor, so he couldn’t beat him up.

Only Kang Ruicheng could teach this young and ignorant doctor a lesson!

Dongzi clenched his fists and looked at Fang Heng angrily, “When I come back, you’d better still be this confident!”

Fang Heng revealed an extremely infuriating smile as he said, “Alright. I’ll be waiting.”

Dongzi snorted, slammed the door, and left the room.

Fang Heng breathed a sigh of relief as if he had completed an important task. He turned back and smiled at Xu Youning and Mumu. “The unwanted guy has finally left.”
