In a western-style building in the depths of the Paradise Manor, Cui Yanru climbed out of the bathtub drenched in sweat and gasped for breath. The pain in her body was like being cut by a knife, causing fear to rise in her heart. She had a feeling that she would probably die if she continued to soak in the water.
"Is it very painful, Mom?"
Yue Li supported her mother and asked with concern.
Cui Yanru's body trembled. She raised her trembling arm to wipe the sweat on her flushed face and said with a slightly hoarse voice, "It's painful. It's like countless ants are biting inside my body. I've been injured before and felt pain countless times, but it's not as painful as soaking in this water. Come out quickly if you can't stand it, Lili. "
Yue Li took a deep breath and nodded, "I know, Mom."
She believed in Tan Xiu and firmly believed that Tan Xiu wouldn't harm her. After all, someone who could fulfill his promise of 100 million dollars to them would never harm her for no reason. After taking off her clothes and stepping into the bathtub barefoot, she felt that the water temperature didn't turn cold even though her mother had been soaking in it for ten minutes.
"I can do it."
Yue Li clenched her fists and slowly sat in the warm water in the bathtub. At first, she felt very comfortable, but then she felt itchy inside her body, as though countless fine hairs were brushing her body. However, the pain grew inside her body in less than half a minute.
"It hurts, Mom."
Crystal clear tears welled up in Yue Li's eyes. Her beautiful face had turned red and blue veins protruded on her forehead. Just these three words were squeezed out from the gaps between her teeth.
Cui Yanru had rested and the pain inside her body had mostly disappeared. Looking at her daughter's painful appearance, she said with a distressed expression, "Come out if you can't stand it, Lili! Mom knows how it feels. It's too painful. Besides, you're not sick, so there's no need for you to suffer with me. "
Yue Li looked weak, but she was extraordinarily strong inside. She trusted Tan Xiu and stubbornly shook her head, "I can do it, Mom."
Time fleeted by.
Five minutes later, the painful expression on Cui Yanru's face gradually disappeared and a strange expression slowly climbed up her face. Shortly after, she felt that her body became itchy again. After the itch subsided, her whole body felt warm and the feeling of strength kept increasing.
"Comfortable?"
Cui Yanru stared blankly for a while before she suddenly looked at Yue Li and exclaimed in pleasant surprise, "Lili, I don't feel any pain anymore. It's … It's very comfortable. It was very comfortable. Even when I wasn't sick, I didn't feel so comfortable. Divine Doctor Tang didn't lie to us. I can feel that my strength is stronger than before. "
At this moment, Yue Li was tormented by the pain. She even had the thought of giving up several times. But when she heard her mother's words, her spirit was immediately shaken. She gritted her teeth and continued to persevere. A few minutes later, when she felt that she really couldn't take it anymore and that her body would break if she persisted any longer, she stood up from the warm water with difficulty and stepped out of the bathtub.
Outside the bathroom.
Yang Pengchao paced back and forth anxiously. If it weren't for his future mother-in-law in the bathroom, he would have gone in to check on Yue Li. Tan Xiu had said that soaking in warm water with that kind of medicine would be very painful. He was afraid that something might happen to Yue Li.
Originally …
He trusted Tan Xiu very much, but he couldn't accept Tan Xiu's treatment method. Just a drop of that medicine could cure leukemia? It was like a joke to him.
At this time, he was thinking about a lot of things outside the bathroom. He even thought that if Tan Xiu's treatment method didn't work, he would take his future mother-in-law abroad to the top hospitals abroad for treatment. In his view, although Cui Yanru was Yue Li's mother, he also regarded her as his own mother. He could feel the warmth of a family member and an elder from Cui Yanru after getting along with her for these days.
"Creak …"
The bathroom door was opened and Yue Li appeared in front of Yang Pengchao. Behind her was a neatly dressed Cui Yanru.
"Yue Li, you …"
Yang Pengchao simply couldn't believe his eyes. At this moment, Yue Li seemed to have been reborn. Her whole body was like a lotus flower coming out of the water, exuding a gorgeous brilliance. Her skin seemed to be whiter than before, looking smoother and more lustrous.
"What's wrong?" asked Yue Li in surprise. Why are you looking at me with this expression? Is there something wrong with my face? "
Yang Pengchao sobered up from his daze and murmured, "You seem to have become more beautiful, Yue Li. Your skin is also much better than before."
"Really?"
With a shy smile, Yue Li walked out of the bathroom door and walked to the front of the mirror in the room.
Yang Pengchao was about to follow her, but his eyes still swept over Cui Yanru. It was just a casual glance, but it made his body shake and a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes again. At this moment, he was really shocked. Before entering the bathroom, Cui Yanru looked dispirited and pale. Her skin didn't seem to have any luster, and she looked a bit old due to her age.
But …
At this moment, however, Cui Yanru seemed to be more than ten years younger. Her skin was also lustrous and white, and she looked full of spirit. She didn't look like a leukemia patient at all.
"Ah …"
Standing in front of the mirror, Yue Li exclaimed and covered her mouth, looking at herself in the mirror in astonishment. She had never dreamed that she would become so beautiful. She never dreamed that she would have such an amazing change, especially her skin. It was like … like a baby's skin.
"How is this possible?"
Yue Li's heartbeat sped up. The pleasant surprise made her dumbfounded.
"Haven't you noticed Auntie's appearance, Yue Li?" asked Yang Pengchao quickly. "She seems to have become more than ten years younger all of a sudden. Besides, Auntie doesn't look like a sick person to me. "
Yue Li turned her head. Only now did she realize that her mother had indeed become different from before. Suddenly, she recalled Tan Xiu's words. She immediately looked at Yang Pengchao and said, "Do you think that drop of medicine can really cure my Mom's leukemia?"
Yang Pengchao thought for a moment and quickly said, "There's still some time before the two hours are up. How about we go to the hospital to have a checkup first?"
Yue Li was moved, but she recalled that there was not much time left before the two hours were up, so she gently shook her head and said, "I believe in Divine Doctor Tang, Pengchao. He said he can cure my Mom's leukemia, so she'll definitely be cured. You can also see that we've soaked in the medicinal bath, and even our appearance has become much better than before. Let's wait for him to come and then we'll talk about going to the hospital for a checkup. "
"Pengchao, I think Lili is right. Haste makes waste," said Cui Yanru. "Although I feel like I'm full of strength now and feel better than when I wasn't sick, I still need to persevere. However, we're not in a hurry. Let's wait for Divine Doctor Tang to come and ask him about the effect first. "
"Alright."
Yang Pengchao's confidence in Tan Xiu rose and he nodded in agreement.
Half an hour later.
Tan Xiu returned to the western-style building with Ouyang Lulu. Upon seeing the changes in Cui Yanru and Yue Li's appearance, he immediately said with a smile, "The external effect is good, but I don't know how the treatment effect is. Ms. Cui, I'll check your pulse first and check your body's condition. "
"Alright, alright."
Cui Yanru hurriedly replied.
After taking a seat, Tan Xiu examined Cui Yanru and found that the diseased white blood cells in her body had been completely eliminated. He immediately praised the effect of the Body Refining Medicine. It was indeed a good treatment for patients.
"How is it, Divine Doctor Tang?"
Cui Yanru saw Tan Xiu retract his hand and hurriedly asked.
"The effect is good. The harmful white blood cells in your body have been eliminated." Tan Xiu said with a smile. "But if you're still worried, you can go to a large hospital to have a checkup. If you've recovered, you don't need to come back and just leave directly. Of course, if you still want to stay in Shanghai, you can come back here and stay for a few days. "
After saying that …
He then looked at Yang Pengchao and lightly smiled, "Don't forget your promise to me. After you've settled the mother and daughter, remember to go to Star City to find the Magnificent Tang Corporation's General Manager, Kang Xia. She'll arrange a job for you."
"Tang … Boss, can I take them to Star City?" Asked Yang Pengchao. "If I'm going to work in Star City later, I hope they can also work there so that I can take care of them."
"That's great." Tan Xiu said with a smile. "You're a special employee of mine, so I should've assigned you a house in Star City. But you're a rich man now, so I won't give you a house. Go buy it yourself."
Yang Pengchao grinned and said, "Boss, you've given me so much money that it's enough to buy 100 houses. Then … how about I take Auntie to the hospital to have a checkup first? "
"Go!"
Tan Xiu let out a faint smile.
As Yang Pengchao's group of three left, Ouyang Lulu stood at the window and asked, "Dear, what are you going to do next? It's summer vacation now and your school has already closed. Can you take a vacation? "
"Even if the school is not closed, I haven't had a good class either." Tan Xiu forced a smile. "As for the vacation, it has nothing to do with me. Next, I need to go to T Country. There's something I need to deal with there. "
Ouyang Lulu's expression moved and asked, "Is it about the zodiac jade carvings? I heard there's news about the jade pig? "
Tan Xiu didn't tell her about Zhang Xinya. In any case, he was going to T Country this time, so he could also solve the jade pig issue. Therefore, he said, "That's right. I've got half of the zodiac jade carvings, so I need to find all of them as soon as possible."
"Do you want me to go with you?" Asked Ouyang Lulu.
"You can go with me if the Paradise Manor hasn't been expanded," said Tan Xiu with a smile. "But you have something to do now, so forget it. Don't worry, I'll be back soon. "
"How about stopping the project first?" Asked Ouyang Lulu. "I want to go out with you. You haven't taken me out to play since we got together!"
