Chapter 53: What should we do then?
“Auntie Lin told me to bring this over.” Li Hanchen entered the room calmly and handed the milk to Mu Sheng.
Mu Sheng waved her hand. “No, thanks.”
Li Hanchen had noticed recently that Mu Sheng was curious about all food. However, it did not mean she welcomed all kinds of food, and there was stuff that she did not like such as milk.
Since she refused to drink it, Li Hanchen placed it on the cabinet by the side. “Are you sick?”
Mu Sheng curled up in bed with a slight frown on her face. “I’m having a stomachache. I want to sleep. Can you help me turn off the light? Thanks.”
Mu Sheng’s long thick eyelashes left a shadow on her face when she closed her eyes.
Li Hanchen stood quietly for a moment before he turned off the light and left the room.
Even though Mu Sheng did not usually have trouble sleeping at night, she kept tossing and turning in the middle of the night. Her stomachache made it impossible for her to sleep.
Although she was a great doctor, she could not ease the pain without the help of medicine. It was unrealistic for her to go out now, so she would have to bear with it and get medication tomorrow.
Li Hanchen suddenly knocked on the door three times, and his voice came from outside the door. “Are you asleep yet?”
“Nope.”
The moment he opened the door, the room lit up. Mu Sheng narrowed her eyes as she glanced and saw Li Hanchen holding something in his hand.
“I happened to find some gastric meds in my room. Why don’t you take some?” said Li Hanchen as he brought some tablets and a warm glass of water to the bedside.
Mu Sheng sat up and took it from him. “Thanks.”
“You’re welcome. I just happened to have some. Go on and rest.” After Mu Sheng took the pills obediently, Li Hanchen left the room.
The room quickly went quiet after Li Hanchen left. The medicine gradually took effect and Mu Sheng finally fell into a deep slumber with the taste of medicine in her mouth.
Outside the villa, a car was leaving in the middle of the night.
“What are you doing? Why are you up in the middle of the night?” Shen Lin was wearing sunglasses as he sunbathed on the deck. “Isn’t it in the wee hours of the night over there?”
“Mr. Li had stomach troubles and told me to bring some medicine. I just left the villa.”
“Stomach troubles?” Shen Lin instantly looked stern. “Didn’t I hear that his health improved a lot recently? Did his condition suddenly get aggravated?”
Li Hanchen’s physical condition was a well-guarded secret. Other than Li Hanchen and his medical team, no one knew about it. Since the medical team refused to divulge any details, it was impossible for them to know more and they could only speculate.
Qin Kai’s expression turned serious when Shen Lin brought up Li Hanchen’s illness. “He does look a lot healthier of late.”
“That’s because he has fallen for some girl. Since he is in a good mood, he naturally looks radiant,” replied Shen Lin.
Qin Kai went quiet. He felt Shen Lin was bound to get into trouble one day from all this smart mouthing. “Enough. Stop making wild guesses and just do as he asks.”
“Uh huh. Hanging up now. I am sunbathing.”
Qin Kai went speechless and hung up the phone altogether.
Even after they hung up, Qin Kai and Shen Lin looked worried about Li Hanchen.
Li Hanchen had written a will before he came home. Also, he came up with a 20-year plan for the Intercontinental Alliance.
Even if the medical team did not divulge Li Hanchen’s physical condition, the two of them knew that Li Hanchen probably did not have much time left judging from the things he had done.
If Li Hanchen fell, Intercontinental Alliance would go into chaos. What should they do then?
