The doctor trembled slightly and began to explain fearfully.

“Ms. Shen, our brain controls the body through neurons and conduction tracts. If... if a person’s brain, that is, their own consciousness, feels that there is no meaning to living in this world, then the signals their body receives will not be very good.”

"My personal suggestion is that you should spend more time talking to him while he's on an IV drip to encourage his will to live."

Shen Zhixia froze, and Ji Nanchen's words echoed in her mind once again.

"Shen Zhixia, don't you hate me for causing Pei Jin's death? Then I'll give my life to him now!"

After saying those words that day, Ji Nanchen turned around and jumped off the building without hesitation.

He must have had a really tough time these past few years, otherwise he wouldn't have made the resolute decision to jump off the building.

After regaining her senses, Shen Zhixia took a few deep breaths and stared at the doctor standing in front of her with an even more gloomy expression. "A routine blood test can only detect the basic condition of a person. Now take his blood for analysis. I want to see the precise analysis results."

She was afraid he really had cancer.

She needs to verify this matter again.

Xu Jin, sitting next to her, suddenly narrowed her eyes and immediately looked up at the doctor, signaling him to quickly agree to the matter and then figure out a solution.

Now he and the doctor are in the same boat. The doctor took his money, and things have developed to this point. Even if he really analyzes and finds that there are cancer cells in Ji Nanchen's blood, he can't say it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be the only one facing Shen Zhixia's revenge; the doctors and the entire hospital would also be affected.

The doctor instantly understood the key point and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll go analyze the patient's blood data report now."

After saying this, he turned and left in a hurry.

Xu Jin watched his departing figure, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

In that instant, he suddenly felt very fortunate that he had moved into Shen Zhixia's villa. Otherwise, if someone else had accompanied Shen Zhixia to take Ji Nanchen to the hospital today, or if the hospital they took him to was not this one, then Ji Nanchen's illness would probably not have been able to be kept secret.

With Shen Zhixia's keen intelligence, once Ji Nanchen is indeed diagnosed with cancer, she will immediately realize that there is a problem with the hospital he arranged for the examination, and he will be the one implicated afterward.

He hasn't gotten what he wants yet, so he can't be dragged into this!

Shen Zhixia sat down next to Ji Nanchen and remained silent for a long time before her red lips parted slightly, "Ji Nanchen, do you still remember the scene when we first met?"

Do you know why I cried that day?

Upon hearing this, Xu Jin froze on the spot.

He always thought that Shen Zhixia met Ji Nanchen through Pei Jin, but he never expected that there was another reason behind it.

He had a strong feeling that once he knew how they met, it would be entirely beneficial to his plans.

At this moment, I feel like a miniature version of a person, standing in a very large space, spinning endlessly.

I wanted to escape, but I couldn't.

Shen Zhixia's words entered my mind at that moment.

I stood there, stunned, waiting for her to continue.

I really wanted to tell her that it wasn't our first meeting, but then I felt there was no need to say it.

Shen Zhixia picked up the water glass on the bedside table, dipped a cotton swab in water, and moistened my dry lips with it.

"I cried that day because my only brother died."

"My brother faked being kidnapped to save me, and then the kidnappers used both of our lives to demand ransom from our family."

“My brother told them that the Shen family favored sons over daughters, and that kidnapping a girl was useless; he would only be a burden if he took me with him. So the kidnappers released me, but he was beaten to death in the fight between the police and the kidnappers.”

"When I rushed over that day, I only saw my brother for the last time. He said, 'Xiaxia, don't cry. You are the most beautiful girl. I hope you can have the best things in your life.'"

So he risked his life to protect her.

When Shen Zhixia thought of this, her eyes reddened, and crystal tears rolled down her cheeks.

Hearing these words, I couldn't help but feel sad.

It turns out that day was the darkest day of her life; no wonder she cried so bitterly that day.

At that moment, I suddenly felt very fortunate. I was glad that I had run into her when I went out for a stroll that day, and that I had recognized her. I comforted her when she was most helpless.

I looked up at the gray and white space, opened my mouth as if to speak, but for some reason I couldn't make a sound.

In the ward, Xu Jin handed over a tissue at the right time and patted Shen Zhixia's head with a pained expression. "Xiaxia, don't be sad. You still have me. I will always be with you."

Shen Zhixia didn't answer him, but just stared at me quietly and continued to speak.

“Ji Nanchen, you know I hate you, but you don’t know that I hate you not only because of Pei Jin, but also because of my brother.”

Upon hearing this, I froze on the spot.

I carefully recalled the past, and I was absolutely certain that in the period leading up to that day when I met Shen Zhixia, I had not encountered any robbers, nor had I met her brother who looked like her.

Why does she hate me because of her brother's death?

I twitched my hand at my side, trying to open my eyes to ask her why, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't open my eyes.

Just then, Xu Jin suddenly asked a question.

"Xiaxia, what does your brother's death have to do with Nan Chen?"

Shen Zhixia glanced at him sideways before her gaze returned to me. "Ji Nanchen, your father used to be a heavy drinker and gambler. In a moment of excitement, he once boasted that if he was bold enough, he would kidnap the daughter of the famous entrepreneur couple who came to the village to sponsor poor students, and then use the daughter to threaten the wealthy man for a ransom of three hundred yuan."

"He said that as long as the plan was meticulous, he would not only avoid being exposed, but he could also live a carefree life with the three million ransom. Even if... even if the outcome was bad and he died, his wife and children could still live well because of that money."

As she said this, her eyes suddenly felt even more sore.

I slowly squatted down in that gray space and hugged myself.

So my father, who was addicted to drinking and gambling, had said such things outside.

If I really think about it, my dad was actually one of the people who caused Shen Zhixia's brother's death.

Shen Zhixia continued speaking, this time with an even more sorrowful tone.

"Ji Nanchen, you may not have meant anything by it, but you took it to heart. Anyway, it was eventually found that those kidnappers came from your village. How can I not hate you?"

I suddenly remembered something.

During the time when Shen Zhixia was crying, I heard Zhang Guifen say that several families in the village had been instigated to become kidnappers, but they failed and ended up in prison.

At the time, I didn't pay attention; I just felt that it was only right for evil people to be punished for their evil deeds.

But I never expected that in such a terrible incident, Shen Zhixia's brother would die.

How can she not hate me in this situation?
