Reborn and married in a swapped marriage, my aloof husband is too ruthless.

Su Jinxin headed straight for the warehouse, but was stopped at the door by the Yan family's head butler.

"Young Madam, the Old Madam has instructed that the storeroom is a restricted area and no unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter."

The head steward of the Yan family was expressionless, his tone rigid and devoid of emotion.

Su Jinxin smiled slightly and took out the token that Old Madam Yan had given her before. "Butler, I am not just some random person."

The head steward of the Yan family took the token, examined it carefully, and only reluctantly stepped aside after confirming that it was correct. "Young Madam, please."

The storeroom was filled with a dazzling array of treasures, but Su Jinxin ignored them and headed straight for the area where medical records were stored.

She flipped through medical records, trying to find any clues about Yan Cheng'an's condition.

However, Yan Cheng'an's medical records are pitifully few, just a few strokes of the pen, vague and unclear, revealing nothing at all.

"Is the young mistress looking for something?"

Dr. Li appeared at the warehouse door at some point, his tone tinged with wariness.

Su Jinxin calmly put the medical record back in its place. "Just browsing. What's Doctor Li doing here?"

Doctor Li walked to her side and said, "The old lady ordered me to take stock of the medicinal herbs."

Su Jinxin asked, seemingly casually, "Doctor Li, could you please tell me how my husband's condition is?"

Doctor Li's eyes flickered. "I cannot answer the young mistress's question. As for the master's condition, the old lady has her own arrangements."

Su Jinxin sneered inwardly; this Doctor Li was clearly just giving her the runaround.

But she didn't show it. Instead, she said with concern, "Dr. Li, I know a little about medicine. Maybe I can help."

Doctor Li clearly didn't believe it. "Young Madam is joking."

Su Jinxin wasn't annoyed. Pointing to the mountain of medicinal herbs in front of her, she said, "These herbs seem a bit messy. How about I help Doctor Li organize them?"

Doctor Li hesitated for a moment, and the head steward of the Yan family came over and whispered a few words in his ear.

Doctor Li's expression changed slightly, and he then said to Su Jinxin, "Then I'll have to trouble you, young mistress."

Su Jinxin was secretly delighted; it seemed that the head steward of the Yan family was the key to their success.

She rolled up her sleeves and began to organize the medicinal herbs.

During this time, she subtly inquired about the effects of various medicinal herbs from Doctor Li, and also tried to find out about Yan Cheng'an's condition.

Although Dr. Li was somewhat wary, he was still moved by Su Jinxin's "sincerity" and revealed some information.

"Alas, the master's illness..." Doctor Li sighed, hesitating to speak.

Su Jinxin quickly pressed, "Dr. Li, have you discovered something?"

Doctor Li gave her a complicated look. "Young Madam, there are some things..."

Doctor Li gave her a complicated look. “Young Madam, there are some things… the less you know, the better.”

He paused, then lowered his voice and said, "Young Master's medical records have been tampered with."

Su Jinxin's heart suddenly raced. Sure enough!

She forced herself to remain calm, "Doctor Li means... someone deliberately concealed my husband's illness?"

Dr. Li didn't say anything, but patted her shoulder meaningfully, turned and left, leaving Su Jinxin alone in the storeroom, her thoughts churning.

Back in her room, Su Jinxin sent Green Ivy away and sat alone at the table, carefully recalling what Doctor Li had said.

The medical records have been tampered with... Who was it?

What is the purpose?

Could it be that Yan Cheng'an's illness is fake?

Once this thought came up, it could never be shaken off.

She recalled Yan Chengan's deep eyes and always felt that they held many secrets.

As evening fell, Su Jinxin was taking a walk in the garden when she unexpectedly ran into Yan Chengan.

He seemed to be in much better health today, no longer as sickly as he used to be.

"What are you thinking about?"

Yan Cheng'an's voice rang out behind her, startling her.

Su Jinxin turned around and saw him standing behind her with a faint smile on his face.

"No...nothing."

Su Jinxin was somewhat flustered and subconsciously tried to hide her thoughts.

Yan Cheng'an walked up to her and gently took her hand. "Xin'er, I know you've been searching for my secret."

Su Jinxin froze, looked up at him, her eyes full of surprise.

Yan Chengan smiled gently, "I believe you."

He tightened his grip on her hand. "No matter what happens, I trust your judgment."

Su Jinxin felt a warmth in her heart, and a strange sense of security welled up inside her.

She grasped his hand in return, feeling the warmth of his palm.

In the distance, the head steward of the Yan family was walking towards them. His gaze fell on the two people's clasped hands, and his brows furrowed slightly...

The head steward of the Yan family strode closer, looking just like a wary old fox.

"Young Madam, the Old Madam requests your presence at Fushou Hall."

His tone was respectful, but his eyes swept over their clasped hands, as if to say: Young man, be mindful of your behavior!

Su Jinxin understood instantly and withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted!

After the housekeeper left, Su Jinxin was preoccupied with worries.

She had a premonition that the housekeeper's visit was related to Doctor Li.

She needs to hurry and go see Dr. Li again.

The next day, Su Jinxin pretended to be unwell and asked Green Ivy to invite Doctor Li.

Green Ivy returned and reported that Doctor Li had been summoned by the steward for a reprimand!

Su Jinxin's heart sank; it seemed her premonition was correct.

The housekeeper is trying to shut Dr. Li up!

How can this be done?

Su Jinxin was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Suddenly, a thought struck her: she remembered that Dr. Li sometimes forgot to take the key to the medicine storehouse with him.

Although the housekeeper is meticulous, he can occasionally make mistakes.

She immediately set off for the medicine storeroom, and sure enough, the steward had been in such a hurry to go to Fushou Hall that he had forgotten to put the key he had taken back from Doctor Li back into the storeroom!

This is a godsend!

She sneaked into the medicine storeroom and rummaged through the drawers and cabinets looking for clues.

Time ticked by, and the housekeeper was about to return, but Su Jinxin still hadn't found anything. She was devastated: Was all her hard work going to be for nothing today?

Just as she was about to give up, her gaze fell on an inconspicuous wooden box in the corner.

The box was covered in dust, and it was clear that no one had touched it for a long time.

With a "nothing to lose" mentality, Su Jinxin opened the box.

Inside was a stack of old medical records, with the top one clearly marked with the three characters "Yan Cheng'an".

Upon opening it, Su Jinxin's eyes widened instantly!

The records here are completely different from the medical records that Doctor Li showed her before!

This medical record clearly shows that Yan Cheng'an's illness was not as serious as the rumors suggested, but rather a curable disease that required time to recover.

Moreover, the medical record also mentions a special medicinal material that can accelerate the recovery of the illness.

Su Jinxin's heart raced and her breathing became rapid. She gripped the medical record tightly, feeling that she was getting closer and closer to the truth!

Holding the medical records, she walked quickly toward Yan Cheng'an's courtyard.

From afar, she could see Yan Cheng'an standing at the courtyard gate, seemingly waiting for her.

"What's that in your hand?"

Yan Cheng'an looked at her, his tone calm, but a subtle tremor flashed in his eyes.

Su Jinxin paused, raised the medical record in her hand, and smiled with raised eyebrows: "Husband, take a look at this good thing?"

Yan Cheng'an's gaze fell on the medical table in her hand, and a complex emotion flashed in his deep eyes.

He said nothing, just looked at her quietly, his thin lips pressed tightly together, his jawline taut, as if he was trying his best to restrain something.

His calm and composed expression left Su Jinxin unsure of his thoughts.

Inner monologue: No way, no way, could I have really discovered some incredible secret?

This man is acting again!

Su Jinxin walked up to him and waved the medical record in front of him: "What, husband, don't you recognize it? This is the truth about your 'terminal illness'!"

She deliberately emphasized the word "terminal illness," observing Yan Cheng'an's changing expression.

Yan Cheng'an remained silent, but reached out and took the medical case, slowly unfolding it.

His fingers were long and strong, with distinct knuckles, which stood out prominently against the yellowed paper.

Su Jinxin held her breath, feeling as if the air itself had frozen. This melon was finally about to ripen!

Yan Cheng'an's gaze swept over the words on the medical record, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

After reading it, he closed the medical record, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled: "You know everything?"

Su Jinxin: !! !! (Inner monologue: It's here, it's here, the moment of truth has finally arrived!)

She shrugged casually, "I know a little, I know a little."

But inside, I was screaming: What do I know?!

Tell me the truth!

Yan Chengan stared at her intently, his eyes filled with complex emotions—admiration, helplessness, and even a hint of…doting?

Su Jinxin felt a little uneasy under his gaze and was about to break the strange silence when Yan Chengan said, "Xin'er, there are some things I can't tell you right now."

Just as she was about to lash out, Yan Cheng'an suddenly grabbed her hand and led her toward the study: "Come with me."
