Chapter 206: Serious Consequences
Gu Yan pursed his lips. He really didn’t know how he should answer his best friend’s question.
Of course, he wished his friend well. He wished for Fu Tingyu’s physical and mental health.
If Fu Tingyu had given up on saving Qin Shu at that time, he wouldn’t have been poisoned.
But Qin Shu was his weakness. He was willing to do anything for her.
After a long silence between the two.
Gu Yan finally broke the silence, saying, “If we rely on the suppressant, the poison will slowly invade your internal organs. Your bodily functions will slowly decline. When you work, your body won’t be able to keep up.”
Gu Yan paused. He didn’t want to speak of the deathly consequence.
Fu Tingyu looked right into Gu Yan’s eyes and asked, “And then?”
Gu Yan really didn’t want to tell Fu Tingyu the harsh truth. So instead, he said, “I will continue to look for medicinal herbs with the desired properties. In the meantime, you will continue with your suppressant medication.”
Fu Tingyu placed the teacup in his hand on the pearwood table in front of him. When he looked back up at Gu Yan, his tone was a little lighter. “Tell me the truth so I can be mentally prepared.”
Gu Yan stared at Fu Tingyu for a long time. He saw the determination as well as the hidden reluctance in Fu Tingyu’s eyes.
Fu Tingyu did not fear death.
He had never feared death.
Gu Yan had grown up with Fu Tingyu, so he knew what it was that Fu Tingyu feared.
After a long pause, Gu Yan said, “If I don’t get the herbs needed to make the antidote in time, you will last at most three years.”
Fu Tingyu pursed his lips. He wanted to laugh, but he could not.
He took out a cigarette and lit it. He took a deep breath, and when he moved the cigarette away, smoke came out from the corners of his mouth. His mesmerizing face became somewhat illusory behind the cigarette smoke.
Gu Yan said, “Don’t think too much about it. The lack of replacement herb is only temporary. Do you not trust my medical skills?”
Fu Tingyu raised his head to look at Gu Yan and laughed lightly. “Of course I trust you. You’ll find the herbs we need.”
Fu Tingyu could not die, and he could not bear to die.
If Fu Tingyu died, who would protect his Bao’er?
Gu Yan nodded. “Mmm, it’s best if you think like that. I will definitely find it.”
Gu Yan would save Fu Tingyu at all costs.
Fu Tingyu left Gu Yan’s private villa. Sitting in the car, he pondered at his conversation with Gu Yan.
Right now, Fu Tingyu had entrusted his life to Gu Yan. He believed that Gu Yan will not let him down.
He would always stay by Bao’er’s side and dote her.

Fu Tingyan had avoided Ling Yao for two days. On the third day, he was relieved that he did not see Ling Yao.
Jiang Yu picked up his bookbag and caught up with Fu Tingyan. He rested his hand on Fu Tingyan’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Tingyan, why don’t we go to South Street for some BBQ? BBQ with beer is the best thing to have during summer.”
Fu Tingyan looked at Jiang Yu and said, “Aren’t you afraid that Auntie will scold you when you go back?”
Jiang Yu smiled and said, “If my mom asks, I will tell her that we went to a Western restaurant together.”
Fu Tingyan’s lips curled up when he heard that. “Let’s go then.”
He had been hiding from Ling Yao for a while and felt very restricted, so BBQ with beer was not a bad idea.
If his grandmother asked, he would say that he went to have western food with Jiang Yu.
Qin Shu, who was walking behind them, heard their conversation and frowned. South Street and BBQ and beer?
She halted. If she remembered correctly, in the previous life, Fu Tingyan and Jiang Yu got into a fight with a group of hooligans on South Street.
The reason for the fight was to save someone.
Fu Tingyan and Jiang Yu grew up with a silver spoon in their mouth. Although they knew martial arts, they were still at a disadvantage when they fought with a group of hooligans.
Two of Jiang Yu’s ribs were broken.
Fu Tingyan’s arm was dislocated and one of his ribs was broken.
