Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1641: Chapter 1641: No Antidote

“Yufei, I didn’t harm your child. If you don’t bring him back now, the one killing him will be you. Come back. You are descendants of the Nangong Family—you can’t just wander outside like this. You and Ansel need to return; this will always be your home.”

“So, what you mean is—if we don’t go back, you’ll never give us the antidote?!” Jian Yufei asked angrily.

“There is no antidote,” Nangong Xu said with a faint smile. “The virus in his body can only be suppressed by taking the medicine I prepare every year, on time. As for a complete cure, such an antidote doesn’t exist.”

Jian Yufei suddenly gripped the railing tightly. “What did you say?”

“I’ve made myself very clear—there’s no antidote.”

No antidote… How could there be no antidote…

“You’re lying to me!” She refused to believe it.

“Why would I lie to you? You can ask your grandfather—he knows there’s no cure for this poison either.”

Jian Yufei’s heart chilled drastically—

Nangong Xu’s voice came coolly through the phone. “Yufei, you’re a married woman now. Stop seeing Ruan Tianling—cut ties with him. Then bring Ansel back here. Remember, this is your only home. You can only return here.”

After finishing his words, Nangong Xu hung up the phone.

Jian Yufei let her hand fall limply to her side, feeling dizzy and drained.

What should she do?

Should she really bring Ansel back?

Ruan Tianling had gone to so much effort to take them away; he would never agree to their return.

Knowing his personality, he would likely recover and continue to clash head-on with Nangong Xu.

But Ansel’s health couldn’t keep being dragged down like this.

And he couldn’t take any more risks—what if he died?

Jian Yufei was caught in a dilemma, torn and unsure of what to do. She didn’t want to hurt Ruan Tianling, but she also couldn’t bear to see Ansel continue to suffer.

Jian Yufei walked back to the bedroom and sat down beside Ruan Tianling.

“Tell me, what should I do?” she asked him softly.

“…”

Of course, Ruan Tianling couldn’t answer her question.

************

Jian Yufei stayed awake all night, keeping watch over Ruan Tianling. His condition finally stabilized by morning.

As sunlight streamed through the window, Ruan Tianling slowly opened his eyes, meeting Jian Yufei’s gaze.

“Awake? Do you want some water?” Jian Yufei asked gently, her tone flat and emotionless.

Ruan Tianling lightly pressed his dry lips together and nodded faintly.

There was some guilt in his expression—it seemed she already knew about him being shot.

Jian Yufei helped him drink a cup of water but didn’t question him about it at all.

“I’ll go get the doctor.”

“Yufei…”

He wanted to call out to her, but Jian Yufei didn’t stop walking. She didn’t even turn her head and just walked out.

She asked Awei, who was standing guard outside the door, to fetch the doctor. Awei immediately took off running.

The doctor arrived quickly. After examining Ruan Tianling, they confirmed his injuries had stabilized. With proper rest, he’d be able to recover over time.

Once the doctors left, only the two of them remained in the room.

“Yufei…” Ruan Tianling stared at her intently, trying to prop himself up.

But his body was too weak. Every movement pulled at his wound, causing him pain. He had barely sat up when he collapsed back down.

Jian Yufei moved forward and held his body down, her delicate brows furrowing. “What are you doing? Don’t move recklessly!”

Ruan Tianling grabbed hold of her hand firmly, as if afraid she would leave, tightening his grip.

“Are you angry?” He stared at her, his deep voice questioning.

Jian Yufei’s face was expressionless. “I’m not angry at you—I’m just in a bad mood.”
