We've done our best...

These few words are often seen on TV, but now that Ye Qiu heard them personally, he felt as if something exploded in his mind with a "boom," leaving him in complete blankness.

"Is there really no other way?"

Ye Qiu asked again, his voice somehow filled with hoarseness.

"This toxin is extremely bizarre, not only have we never seen it, but we've never even heard of it." The attending doctor sighed and said:

"We've already contacted the best authoritative doctors in our city, hoping that when he arrives, he can help with Miss Bai's condition."

After saying this, the doctor left.

Feeling helpless, Ye Qiu entered the ward, looking at Bai Lan's pallid face, and his heart was filled with pain and guilt. If he had been more careful, if he hadn't left the company, Wen Yafei wouldn't have had the opportunity to kidnap Bai Lan, and she wouldn't be in this state.

"Ye, Ye Qiu..."

Just as Ye Qiu was overwhelmed with guilt, Bai Lan suddenly woke up.

"How are you feeling now?" Ye Qiu immediately walked to Bai Lan's side and asked softly.

"Am I... going to die?" Bai Lan's face turned even more ashen as she asked this question.

"Who said that? You need to have faith in our country's medical skills. For a minor toxin like this, it should definitely not be a problem." Ye Qiu dared not show his worry in front of Bai Lan and spoke with absolute conviction.

Seeing Ye Qiu's undeniable confidence, Bai Lan paused and immediately felt a sense of security fill her heart. It seemed that as long as Ye Qiu was by her side, everything would be safe.

"Mm, I believe you!"

Bai Lan chose without hesitation to believe Ye Qiu's words.

A moment later, the authoritative doctor, mentioned by the attending physician, hurriedly arrived.

The hospital paid significant attention to Bai Lan's condition because she was a prominent figure in Jiangnan City, and if anything happened to her, it would undoubtedly cause a huge stir.

The Bai Group seemed poised to become the leading enterprise in Jiangnan City, and if something happened to Bai Lan in their hospital, they certainly wouldn't have a good time.

Therefore, the hospital deployed the top-level doctors for treatment, even reaching out to some renowned doctors nationwide for safety's sake.

These doctors included top experts in neurology, internal medicine, surgery, and other fields.

The treatment doctors were undoubtedly top-tier figures in the country, and with their concerted efforts, good news finally arrived.

Although Bai Lan's illness couldn't be completely cured, it could be controlled through chemotherapy.

As long as Bai Lan was not in life-threatening danger, that was the best thing.

In the following days, Ye Qiu stayed by Bai Lan's side almost every day, and Bai Lan was open-minded enough. After letting go of work-related stress, she felt incredibly relaxed, therefore, her feelings for Ye Qiu deepened significantly over these few days.

"Lanlan, just rest well. I'll take care of the company matters."

On this day, Lan Ying came to check on Bai Lan's condition.

"Mm." Bai Lan nodded and said, "You're the one I trust the most in the company now. I feel at ease leaving it to you."

Lan Ying nodded in response to this, but she thought to herself, "Who did our Lanlan provoke to keep having spies infiltrating? No, I must thoroughly cleanse the Bai Group this time, so this cannot happen again!"

Bai Lan and Lan Ying were as close as sisters, and seeing Bai Lan in such a state made Lan Ying feel bad.

"Lanlan, I'll leave now. I have a contract to talk about at noon." Lan Ying wanted to spend more time with Bai Lan, but she didn't have that much time. After a close brush with bankruptcy earlier, Lan Ying had been particularly attentive to the company, and in Bai Lan's absence, she needed to be in control of everything.

"Okay! You take care too." Bai Lan smiled.

Lan Ying reminded Bai Lan to rest well and then got up to leave. Yet, before leaving, she exchanged a glance with Ye Qiu, and as she reached the door, she stopped with a somewhat complicated expression and said, "Take good care of Lanlan for me."

Regarding Ye Qiu, Lan Ying didn't quite know how to face him. Initially, she loathed Ye Qiu to the core!

But later, Ye Qiu did many things for Bai Lan and the company, which changed her perception of him. However, the annoying guy kept taking advantage of her, and that was intolerable!

"Sigh." Lan Ying sighed and left without saying more, knowing that having a man to look after Bai Lan was good.

"Thank you for your hard work these days."

After Lan Ying left, looking at Ye Qiu bustling about beside her, Bai Lan's expression softened.

Born into a wealthy family, she was surrounded by intrigues everywhere. After reaching adulthood and getting fed up with that life, she left on her own to Jiangnan City, where she established the Bai Group on her own. In the subsequent years, she was always busy with various work.

She had never rested before and had never been this relaxed. Surprisingly, now she felt a taste called happiness, a taste that seemed quite good and somewhat intoxicating.

And the person who brought all this to her was the man before her, a man so powerful that words couldn't describe.

"What's a little hard work for my woman?" Ye Qiu grinned.

If it were in the past, Bai Lan would have definitely retorted, but now, surprisingly, she didn't object. It seemed she had already accepted that she was Ye Qiu's woman, although she had in fact long been his woman.

"I just bought you some porridge, have it while it's hot."

As he spoke, Ye Qiu came to Bai Lan's side, carefully supporting her to rest against his chest.

At present, Bai Lan was almost entirely devoid of strength, unable to eat on her own, and even needed Ye Qiu's help for things like going to the bathroom.

Fortunately, Ye Qiu and Bai Lan had already transcended that layer of relationship, so there was no awkwardness in him doing these things for her.

Ye Qiu held Bai Lan by the delicate shoulders and carefully fed her a spoonful of porridge.

Bai Lan seemed to have become accustomed to this action of Ye Qiu, taking a mouthful without concern for whether the porridge was hot because she knew Ye Qiu must have checked the temperature beforehand. With him around, there was no need to overly consider these details.

Bai Lan took a sip, and the porridge's liquid trickled down the corner of her mouth...
