The nurse looked up at her, her face serious.

"The patient's condition is very dangerous right now, and he himself doesn't have much of a will to live. We can only do our best."

After saying this, she closed the emergency room door.

After hearing what the nurse said, Shen Zhixia's legs went weak again, and she almost collapsed to the ground.

Xu Jin quickly helped her sit on a bench outside the emergency room and gently comforted her, "Xiaxia, don't be afraid, Nanchen will be alright."

She turned her head blankly to look at Xu Jin sitting beside her, unable to say a word.

For some reason, she suddenly felt as if a sharp blade had been plunged into her heart, the pain so intense that she dared not utter a sound.

She never imagined such a day would come. I was inside, my life hanging in the balance, and the nurse came out and said that the patient had no will to live, and there was nothing she could do.

Ji Nanchen had been by her side for seven or eight years. She always thought she hated him and wished he would die to pay for it, but when she actually heard that he had no will to live, she was actually afraid.

Shen Zhixia stared at the emergency room door with a complicated expression, tears welling up in her eyes, and her vision slowly blurred.

Xu Jin hurriedly took out tissues and carefully wiped away her tears.

"Xiaxia, don't cry, he'll be alright."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhixia suddenly recalled the time when she first met Ji Nanchen.

At that time, the boy was young and inexperienced, with a tall and straight figure. Looking at her with tears streaming down her face, his eyes were full of heartache.

He said, "Shen Zhixia, don't cry. You deserve all the good things in this world."

Throughout the years he stayed by her side, he always put her first in everything, never truly got angry with her, let her act silly and mock him, and still persistently cared about everything concerning her.

When did he start to stop caring about her?

I don't know how much time had passed, but by the time I was wheeled out of the emergency room, it was already very dark.

I was taken to the intensive care unit, and Shen Zhixia and Xu Jin followed me there.

The moment Meng Jinghuai saw them, he couldn't help but burst into a tirade with bloodshot eyes, "Shen Zhixia, do you have no heart at all? Nan Chen is so sick, and you still bring your mistress to provoke him. Do you want him to die?"

"I do not have."

As soon as Shen Zhixia finished denying it, Xu Jin innocently began to explain.

"Doctor, you've misunderstood. Xiaxia and I are both very concerned about Nanchen's condition. We waited outside the emergency room all day, worried that something might happen to Nanchen."

Meng Jinghuai clenched his fist at his side and suddenly punched Xu Jin.

"what!"

Xu Jin cried out in pain, and after regaining her senses, she glared angrily at the man standing not far away.

"Are you sick? I was just concerned about Nan Chen, why did you hit me?"

"roll!"

Meng Jinghuai glared fiercely at the two people standing in front of him, his tone full of anger, "Nan Chen doesn't need your fake concern at all!"

From the moment he saw Xu Jin, he knew that the man was a mistress.

He looks very much like Pei Jin, almost exactly the same.

If it weren't for Shen Zhixia's persistent search for someone like Pei Jin all these years, Nan Chen wouldn't have suffered so much.

Shen Zhixia did not refute Meng Jinghuai's words, nor did she continue to provoke him. She only asked with concern, "How is he now?"

"What happens to him is none of your business, get out of here!"

After shouting those words, Meng Jinghuai turned around and sat on a bench not far away, staring at me with bloodshot eyes.

Shen Zhixia stood there dumbfounded, her lips trembling as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't utter a single word.

She is the culprit behind Ji Nanchen becoming the way he is now.

But how could she not hate Pei Jin when he died with him?

Xu Jin sensed the change in Shen Zhixia's emotions and gently patted her shoulder. "Xiaxia, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have appeared here and caused you trouble. I'll be leaving now."

There's no point in him staying here any longer.

If she cares about him, she will leave with him after hearing what he said, just like many times before.

But this time, Shen Zhixia was different.

She looked at him quietly and said, "Go back and get some rest. I'll come find you after I've taken care of these things."

Xu Jin stood there stunned for a moment, then revealed her favorite smile.

"Ok, I will wait for you."

He hesitated for a moment, then turned and silently left the spot.

At that moment, he realized something very clearly: Shen Zhixia cared a lot about Ji Nanchen.

If he wants to maintain his current relationship and life, he must leave sensibly and get them divorced as soon as possible in order to maximize his interests.

Later that day, Shen Zhixia went to see the doctor who had performed the surgery that day and inquired about my condition.

The doctor showed her my test results and imaging results, saying, "The patient's condition is critical. The cancer cells are spreading much faster than we expected. If this continues, she has less than three months to live."

"The most urgent task now is to find connections to purchase the effective drug that inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells, just as planned, and actively cooperate with chemotherapy while delaying the division of cancer cells."

Upon hearing the truth about my illness, Shen Zhixia's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face like pearls falling from a broken string.

As soon as she stepped out of the ward, she saw Meng Jinghuai and Su Jinyun standing not far from the ward door.

"Jinyun, when can the special drug that inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells be delivered?"

"Once the money arrives, we'll deliver immediately."

Su Jinyun's voice was as indifferent as ever. After speaking, she couldn't help but gossip, "Senior brother, do you think his wife is just trying to avoid paying for his treatment, which is why she keeps delaying payment?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Shen Zhixia, on the verge of collapse, stepped forward and grabbed Meng Jinghuai by the collar.

Why didn't you tell me sooner that giving him the special medicine could slow down his illness?

"If even one of you had told me he was sick, perhaps his condition wouldn't be so critical right now!"

Meng Jinghuai pursed his lips, neither speaking nor refuting.

Just then, Su Jinyun couldn't help but scoff, coldly mocking, "What good would it do to tell you? You're blaming us for cheating on your wife and having fun outside?"

“If you really cared about Ji Nanchen, you wouldn’t have missed such a big change in him.”

“President Shen, we all understand that you are very busy, but the result you have caused today is your retribution. You should not shift the blame onto Meng Jinghuai.”

"After all, he has done far more for Ji Nanchen than you, his wife, have!"
