Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!

"That's fine."

Shi Xiaxia accepted the card: "Please thank Mr. Shi for me."

"Of course, of course." Fang Shao watched Shi Xiaxia walk into the house before turning to leave.

He then arrived at the entrance of the residential area, walked up to a low-key black sedan, and said softly to the person inside, "Sir, Miss Xiaxia has accepted it."

Shi Fanghai, inside the car, nodded slightly and sighed, "That's good. After all these years, I'm the one who owes her."

......

The next day, Shi Xiaxia arrived at Zhao Guan's residence on time as agreed.

Zhao Guan led Shi Xiaxia into the house.

As he led the way, he said apologetically, "My wife's health has been deteriorating these past few days, so I'll have to trouble Miss Shi to move to the bedroom."

"fine."

Shi Xiaxia entered the bedroom and saw a pale-faced, haggard-looking noblewoman lying on the bed.

This noblewoman was none other than Zhao Guan's wife, Tang Jingxue.

Tang Jingxue saw Shi Xiaxia and forced a smile: "Such a young doctor?"

"A loss of fortune can be replenished by lifespan."

Shi Xiaxia's expression was serious as she asked directly, "What did you do?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Jingxue's smile vanished instantly, replaced by astonishment and panic.

After a long while, she turned her back to Shi Xiaxia and said to Zhao Guan, "I'm fine, I don't need her to see me! Please go back!"

Zhao Guan knew his wife well and knew that Tang Jingxue was definitely hiding something, so he anxiously called out, "Jingxue!"

Shi Xiaxia's gaze turned somber as she continued, "Madam Tang, if I may remind you, if this continues, your lifespan will be less than a year!"

Tang Jingxue's eyes flickered slightly, and suddenly she thought of something. She sat up and glared at Zhao Guan: "You, Zhao Guan! You actually conspired with others to deceive me! What do you mean by less than a year to live! That's all nonsense!"

"Jingxue! I didn't!" Zhao Guan was truly speechless with bitterness.

"Get out! Get out of here!" Tang Jingxue angrily shooed the two away.

However, she was too weak, and even with all her strength, her voice was still faint and powerless.

Shi Xiaxia looked at Tang Jingxue coldly.

She had already given Tang Jingxue two chances, but she didn't appreciate them, so there was no need to continue.

As she was about to turn and leave, Zhao Guan pleaded with Shi Xiaxia, "Miss Shi! Please! Don't go! Please save Jingxue! I can't live without her!"

Shi Xiaxia stopped in her tracks.

In the past, if anyone dared to say even the slightest disrespectful word to her, she would have retaliated without hesitation.

Unfortunately, her spiritual power was sealed, and things were not the same as before; she no longer had the capital to be proud.

Shi Xiaxia looked at Tang Jingxue again and slowly said, "Your life is smooth and your marriage is wonderful, but you are destined to be childless. What Madam Tang desires must be offspring, right?"

Tang Jingxue immediately exploded: "What do you mean by being destined to be childless! That's all bullshit! I don't believe it! Zhao Guan! If you don't kick her out soon, I'm really going to get angry!"

Zhao Guan was also in a dilemma at this time.

He neither wanted to have a conflict with Tang Jingxue, nor did he want her to really only have one year left to live.

"After your miscarriage, the doctor should have made it very clear whether you can still get pregnant, right?"

Shi Xiaxia said firmly, "Being childless is being childless, and no amount of methods will help!"

Tang Jingxue stared blankly at Shi Xiaxia, momentarily forgetting to refute.

No one else knew about her miscarriage except for herself and the doctor!

How could Shi Xiaxia possibly know?!

"What miscarriage?! Jingxue! What exactly happened?!" Zhao Guan panicked even more when he heard that Tang Jingxue had kept such a big thing from him.

He gripped Tang Jingxue's shoulders tightly, staring at her intently.

"it does not matter,"

Tang Jingxue, her eyes red-rimmed, raised her hand to stroke Zhao Guan's cheek: "It's alright..."

I'm pregnant again! We're going to have a baby soon!

Shi Xiaxia frowned. Looking at Tang Jingxue's face, she realized that she was not destined to have children.

She bit her finger, silently chanted a spell, then ran it across her eyes before opening them to look at Tang Jingxue's stomach.

He then said coldly, "That's not a child! Director Zhao, you should take Mrs. Tang to the hospital for a checkup right away!"

"It's a child! That's a child!"

Tang Jingxue began to struggle: "Zhao Guan! You believe her but not me?!"

"Jingxue, can we just pretend we're going to the hospital for a prenatal checkup?"

Zhao Guan comforted her, saying, "Pregnancy requires prenatal checkups! Only if you and the baby are healthy can we properly care for the baby!"

......

After the examination, Tang Jingxue rested in the ward, while Zhao Guan and Shi Xiaxia waited for the results outside.

"Miss Shi, Jingxue and I... are we really not going to have children?"

Shi Xiaxia nodded.

Zhao Guan sighed: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether we have children or not. I just want Jingxue to be alright."

The test results came back shortly afterward.

After reviewing the scans, the doctor pointed to a spot and said, "This is a tumor. We can't determine whether it's benign or malignant yet; further examination is needed."

Upon receiving this result, Zhao Guan was completely stunned.

It took him a long time to slowly come to his senses, his face still full of pain and disbelief.

Shi Xiaxia said, "If Madam Tang still doesn't say what she did, given that she only has one year left to live, this tumor must be malignant."

Zhao Guan remained silent for a long time.

Suddenly, he looked up and said, "Miss Shi, I know! Some time ago, Jingxue got a doll and she always carries it around."

Strangely enough, the doll was so lifelike, it looked just like a real person!

"Perhaps there is a connection."

Shi Xiaxia pondered for a moment and asked, "Does Director Zhao know where the baby is?"

"We need to look for it. I haven't seen it since I mentioned it once, so Jingxue must have hidden it."

Shi Xiaxia nodded: "Director Zhao and I will search together. If there is any yin energy, it will be easier for me to find it."

"it is good."

After Zhao Guan agreed, the two returned to Zhao Guan's residence together.

Tang Jingxue didn't try to hide it, so they found the doll quickly.

Shi Xiaxia looked through it, unstitched the seams, and found Tang Jingxue's hair and birth date inside.

“This is a small transshipment contract,”

Shi Xiaxia touched the doll's strange fabric and stuffing, explaining, "And it's one-way; even if it's removed, Madam Tang's luck won't return!"

"What?!" Zhao Guan's face turned pale instantly.

He collapsed to the ground, his voice trembling, "What about Jingxue... what will happen to her?"

The man in his forties was crying like a child: "Miss Shi, please save Jingxue! I'll do anything to save her!"

After breaking the luck-changing contract on the doll, Shi Xiaxia looked at Zhao Guan and said, "If Director Zhao is really willing to do anything, I do have a way."

"Miss Shi, just tell me! As long as I can do it!"

Shi Xiaxia stared intently at Zhao Guan: "We need Director Zhao's life."
