Dr. Chen, upon hearing the situation, didn’t ask further. Although he was aware that martial artists generally have much stronger physiques, this was still an unprecedented case for him. However, Leng Xuan didn’t seem to be lying, and he even ntioned that Su Zhenggang could testify on his behalf. Dr. Chen knew perfectly well who Su Zhenggang was, so he didn’t press the issue. Nonetheless, before he left, he made it clear to Leng Xuan that he should stay in the hospital for two more days for observation. If it was indeed proven that he had recovered, he would be allowed to be discharged.
Leng Xuan didn’t object to this. It was just two more days, and he could use this opportunity to consolidate his realm.
After Dr. Chen left, Dai Xinyue also spoke up, "Since you’re alright, I’ll take my leave first."
"Okay, thank you for taking care of these past days," Leng Xuan nodded his head. However, when Dai Xinyue turned to leave, Leng Xuan noticed that her complexion didn’t look good and couldn’t help asking, "Wait, don’t go yet. You look pale. Are you feeling unwell? If so, you should go back and rest earlier. Don’t work so hard; it’s not good for your health."
Dai Xinyue forced a smile and said, "I’m fine, thank you for your concern."
Despite her words, Leng Xuan still sensed the worry between her brows, so he got off the bed, walked over to her, and said, "I can tell there’s definitely sothing on your mind. Tell , maybe I can help. If you don’t talk, I won’t let you leave." With that, he stood in front of the door, blocking Dai Xinyue’s way out.
Seeing Leng Xuan’s insistent tone and downright domineering stance, Dai Xinyue couldn’t help but give a wry smile. She sighed and slowly said, "There’s trouble at ho."
"What happened? Tell about it." Grateful for Dai Xinyue’s devoted care during this ti, Leng Xuan felt indebted and, seeing her distressed, decided to help.
Dai Xinyue explained, "My mother passed away when I was young, and my father raised single-handedly. He isn’t educated and had a hard ti supporting , laboring every day to earn money for my studies and life. But ever since I managed to beco a nurse and started working at the hospital, my father began to change. He started drinking excessively and got involved with dubious people, picking up gambling. All the valuable things at ho were sold by him. Not only that, but he has recently accumulated a large gambling debt and borrowed money from loan sharks. Now, the creditors are pressing him for repaynt, but where can he get the money, especially when my salary isn’t much. Later, those people directly threatened my father, saying that if he couldn’t pay back the money, they would use to settle the debt."
"Such a thing actually happened?" Leng Xuan was enraged upon hearing this.
"Actually, this matter isn’t as simple as it seems. There’s soone behind this," Dai Xinyue continued, "There was a patient nad Huang Jixiang admitted to the hospital recently. He took a fancy to because of my looks and harbored ill intentions. Initially, he sent his n to approach , saying that if I agreed to be Huang Jixiang’s woman, he would ensure I lived a life of wealth and luxury. I refused at the ti and also harshly rebuked him, telling him not to harass again. Unexpectedly, Huang Jixiang wields so power in Baiyun City and he targeted my father, attempting to coerce with that. They even said that if I didn’t agree within three days, they would chop off my father’s limbs."
