Chapter 317: Madness in Despair >

ng!"Jian Tong looked up and met those clear eyes. He was startled by the anger and a hint of despair in their depths: "You..."The man's eyes immediately reddened, as if he were the one who had done wr..."By the way, tomorrow morning, I won't be going to Jian's."

"Is something the matter"

"I'm a little tired and want to take a break," Jian Tong said, looking exhausted. "Vivian, I've entrusted half of the Jian Corporation to you. You can't let me down."

She said in a half-truthful manner, standing up: “I won’t keep you for dinner. Let me sleep for a while. Lately, I don’t know why, but I’m particularly prone to fatigue.”

Vivian, hearing this, looked heartbroken. "You're just like that," she said. "Alright, I'm going now. Don't rush to work. I'll handle things at the company."

"You divided all of Jian's shares among me... Well, do you not regret it"

She still hesitated, saying that buying people's hearts didn't require Jian Tong to take out the shares of the Jian family. Vivian had always followed Jian Tong unconditionally all her life.

Vivian was about to reach the door when Jane called out, "Wait a minute."

"Huh"

Unknowingly, we are no longer in our twenties, Vivian... Time is a butcher's knife. The corners of your eyes and the corners of my eyes already have wrinkles.

"Yeah, I remember when we were young and laughed so freely. Now we don't dare laugh like that anymore..." The two chatted and laughed, the atmosphere was very light, "Alright, I'm going. Get some rest."

"I'll walk you to the elevator."

"So formal This isn't a parting for life and death."

Smiling, the two walked out of the room one after the other. As the elevator door opened, Vivian stepped inside. The moment the door closed, she looked up and saw Jian Tong smiling at her from outside the elevator... inexplicably, her heart skipped a beat.

He shook his head, unable to figure out why his heart had skipped a beat.

Leaving the building, Vivian felt uneasy on her way back.

Yet, I couldn't figure out what felt uneasy.

The next day

A woman arrived at the hospital quietly.

"Miss Jian, are you still the same as yesterday"

The one who was in charge of injecting her with the growth factor was still yesterday's nurse.

How is he doing today

A woman spoke up.

"Please wait a moment, the hospital will arrange Mr. Jian's various body checks every day," said the nurse, glancing at the time: "You wait a bit, the report will be out soon."

Just as he was speaking, a man in a white coat, clutching a stack of papers and moving with hurried steps, came over. "Miss Jian is here just in time."

This is Jianmo Bai's latest report.

Take a look, this indicator is not normal.

That white-coated doctor hurried to Jian Tong's face, opened the report, and pointed at the test results on it:

"Actually, Mr. Jian Mo Bai, things have been getting worse day by day recently.

But today with these results, this report... if the situation worsens further, Mr. Jian might need more than just a bone marrow transplant.

The woman's clear eyes flickered slightly: "What's the situation, just say it."

"Mr. Jian's report shows a trend towards kidney failure," the doctor said, glancing at the silent woman across from him, his lips pressed together.

Her heart skipped a beat... If she hadn't misread it, that was...

What are the consequences of kidney failure

At this moment, I can't help but clench my fists tightly.

It couldn't be...

"Kidney transplant."

She clenched her fist suddenly...Sure enough!

"I've already been injecting growth factors, today is the second day. His condition, can..."

I know Miss Jian wants to ask what.

According to the current report, logically speaking, we should be able to wait until the bone marrow transplant.

He paused, then continued:

But how things will actually turn out, we can't guarantee.

Saying that, he took out another physical examination report:

"This is Miss Jian's report, based on Miss Jian's situation...we can only hope that Mr. Jian's condition will remain as it is."

The meaning couldn't be any more obvious.

Jian Tong naturally understood as well.

"Carry on," she concluded.

"Ms. Jian, are you really going to conceal the truth from the donor"

The doctor asked with some suspicion, "Ms. Jian and Mr. Jian are direct relatives, there is no need to conceal anything, besides, considering Ms. Jian's health condition, donating bone marrow carries a certain risk of failure."

The hospital only put forward a possibility: if Ms. Jian encountered any danger during the donation process or afterward, how would Ms. Jian take care of herself

Jian Tong was stunned. She hadn't thought about what would happen after she donated her bone marrow at all.

She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, there was clarity in her gaze. "Continue the growth factor injection," she said.

Heaven, really knows how to joke around.

But, Jian Tong seemed fearless, as if he didn't care about anything, as if he had abandoned everything, as if...he had given up on himself.

...and a hope that she never dared to speak,

she thought…to give up everything.

The cold needle, icy to the bone, pierced her flesh. She was like dead wood, a specimen, allowing the nurses around her to inject needles into her body.

With a loud bang, the door was slammed open and hit the wall with a tremendous crash.

The nurse's hand trembled, about to scold the person pushing the door open. With a quick turn of her head, she saw the tall figure standing at the doorway. Her face was so cold that the nurse shivered down her spine. "How dare you barge in..."

A gaze, suddenly like a blade, shot towards her, scaring the nurse so badly she almost bit her own tongue... This person, how terrifying!

Jian Tong stared at the person at the door in disbelief. Her heart skipped a beat, her hands trembled uncontrollably. She tried to control the shaking, but her muscles seemed to have a memory of their own, refusing to obey her command.

That figure, step by step approaching, yet carrying the terror of a storm, that man's handsome face was shrouded in frost, ferocious and terrifying. His gritted teeth seemed to want to tear her apart.

She bit her lip hard, and gripped her trembling arms with all her might. She straightened her back as best she could, wanting to face him openly and honestly. With these simple things, she wanted to swear to him: I'm not afraid.

But these, in a woman's eyes, were almost her full efforts of resistance, yet in a man's eyes, they were laughable and childish, not worth mentioning.

High heels click-clacked on the cold floor, the sound echoing like it came from the depths of hell. She sprang to her feet, fleeing without a thought, desperately running in any direction.

Bang!

Another loud boom.

He pressed her down hard again, into the armchair. This blow, though powerful, landed only on the back of the chair. He did not relent, however, not a single ounce of force leaving his hand from her body.

"Is this your 'quiet time'" the man asked through gritted teeth, though even then, the trembling of his jaw betrayed his immense effort to contain himself.

The icy words fell into the woman's ears, instantly freezing her heart. Her delicate face turned as white as paper!

"Are you running away again"

The man pressed down his anger, asking in a low voice by the woman's ear.

"You're going to run again!" he gritted out, certain of it.

If one is not careful, they wouldn't hear it, the gritted teeth in these four words, besides endless anger, there's also heartbreak and despair!

Yes, despair!

The man's thin lips, lightly, extremely slowly, pulled out a curve, a very slight curve:

At that time, you fled to Lake Erhai.

Now…where will you run to

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The woman's lips gradually turned grayish-white, still trembling.

"Shh..." A long finger pressed against her trembling lips, and he smiled. "Three years ago, you escaped with all your cunning, fleeing to Lake Erhai."

Now… are you going to run away using death

"You would use 'death' to escape me"

The woman remained silent, beads of cold sweat forming on her forehead.

The man was smiling, but his eyes were cold as ice.

"Jian Tong, I'm asking you a question... this time, where are you going to run to Huh Answer!"

She wanted to glance away, those scarlet eyes... she couldn't bear to look!

His chin was grabbed abruptly. "I'm asking you a question! Look at me, answer me, where do you think you're going"

He stared at her, at the woman inches away from him. They... were so close, yet he felt a chill run down his spine.

Closed her eyes, then opened them again: "Jian Tong! You can do it!" Even in death, she had to escape him!

You got it!

"I tell you, whatever I say, that's what happens! If I say you live, you live. If I say you die, you die! You still bear my surname, do you think you can find peace even as a ghost"

"From heaven to earth, even to the underworld, I will not let go. You may die, but you can't escape!"

The color drained from the woman's face!

He suddenly bent down and scooped her up, “Come with me!”

"No I won't!"

"Hmph... Not your call!" The man sneered, scooped the woman up in his arms, and strode away.

The nurse reacted and hurried to stop him, “Sir, you can’t...”

Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by the bodyguards he had brought.

Jian Tong only then saw that Shen Er had already returned to the country.

Looking at the resolute expression on that handsome face, her heart sank to the bottom in an instant: "Shen Xiujin! Let go of me!" Her voice was hoarse and tired.

"Hmph..." was the only response he gave her, a light sneer that betrayed the pain swirling in his depths, mingled with...despair.

...and after despair, madness!mumbling, "And every time Tong Tong ignores Xiu, here at Xiu's..." She saw the man clutching his chest and said, "It hurts so much. It hurts so much. Tong Tong, do you think Xiu is sick"The hand under...
