Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Song Fan didn’t speak. She understood that everyone harbored inner wounds that shouldn’t be touched by others. Gu Chen had never brought up the matter, and she never inquired. But whenever he decided to share, she was willing to listen.

Gu Chen remained silent for a moment, then sighed, “I will investigate this matter thoroughly; you don’t need to worry.”

Indeed, he still didn’t want to bring up the issue.

“Alright. In the next few days, I’ll organize a suitable prescription, mainly focusing on traditional Chinese medicine. We’ll see how it goes,” Song Fan smoothly shifted the topic, “How’s your health recently?” “Song Fan,” Gu Chen suddenly called her name.

Not understanding why, Song Fan still replied, “I’m here.”

Upon hearing her response, Gu Chen silently chuckled, “Good. My birthday is in three months.”

While a birthday might be a cause for celebration for others, it wasn’t for him.

“Don’t worry; you’ll have many more birthdays. I won’t let you die,” Song Fan said solemnly.

Although Gu Chen had mentioned the possibility of not living past 25 only when they first met, afterward, he continued with hope. However, everyone feared death, and so did he.

Knowing about her medical skills and her ability to suppress the toxins in his body had significantly improved his mood. He even began to anticipate life.

His voice carried a hint of delight, “Yes, I believe you. So, I’m looking forward to my birthday gift.’

His words left Song Fan somewhat speechless. She was already his doctor and had acted as a shield for him. Did he have the audacity to ask for a gift?

“I’m just joking. If you can spend my birthday with me, that’s the best gift I could ask for, nothing more,” Gu Chen’s voice echoed over the phone, filled with endless tenderness.

Even though Song Fan had experienced two lifetimes, she still found it somewhat difficult to resist. Suddenly, she felt like she had a fever and a dry mouth.

“Let’s talk about it later. I’m hanging up,” she quickly ended the call, her heart pounding.

Gu Chen looked at the disconnected phone, his eyes filled with endless tenderness, finding Song Fan’s hurried disconnection adorable.

Throughout the night, Song Fan tossed and turned. She couldn’t recall when she had finally fallen asleep, but her dreams were surreal. She dreamt of her old laboratory, her former colleagues, and even Gu Chen.

In the dream, he walked too fast, and no matter how hard she chased him, it seemed they were just a step apart, but she could never catch up.

When she finally caught up, Gu Chen fell off a cliff. She rushed over and only saw his weak and continuously descending figure, along with small red flowers by the cliff.

“No!” Song Fan was scared awake, drenched in cold sweat. Upon realizing it was just a dream, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She went straight to the bathroom, intending to take a shower to clear her mind.

The warm water on her body finally brought some warmth. She squinted her eyes, recalling the dream. Was it some kind of warning? Would Gu Chen jump off a cliff?

She vigorously shook her head, unable to imagine a scenario where Gu Chen would commit suicide.

Then she remembered the red flowers by the cliff. Her eyes widened; wasn’t that the Snow Red Flower?

It was said that this flower blossomed on icy cliffs, as it required extremely high environmental conditions. Only in rarely visited icy regions could one occasionally witness its existence.

Because it grew in such frigid areas and its color resembled fresh blood, many emperors in ancient times sent people to search for it in hopes of using it for alchemy, costing numerous lives.

While the Snow Red Flower couldn’t grant immortality, it could purify toxins in the bloodstream. Its components could rapidly eliminate toxins. Although it couldn’t cure all poisons, when combined with other medicines, it became an excellent detoxifying agent. However, it was extremely rare; even in her past life, Song Fan had only seen it once.

Upon thinking of the Snow Red Flower’s effects, she suddenly felt more awake. It seemed like she had found Gu Chen’s birthday gift..
