How could he feel comfortable doing this? It would be so embarrassing if someone saw him. He is much more popular now than before.

But business is more important, so let’s put face aside for now.

He leaned half of his body against the door, and pressed his face against it, then pounded on the door and called out, “Dad, I’m here to see you, hurry up and ask them to open the door!”

Sure enough, after howling for a while, the door suddenly opened from the inside.

The nurse just wiped the old man’s body.

She didn’t recognize them either, so she just looked at Lu Yu and Bai You strangely, then closed the door and left.

While she was distracted, Lu Yu immediately pulled Bai You in through the crack in the door.

Then he locked the door from the inside out with a bang.

The bodyguard outside knocked on the door, but to no avail, and then there was no sound.

Lu Yu raised his chin towards Bai You and said, “My dad is right there, come and have a look.”

Bai You quickly stepped forward, squatted in front of Mr. Qi, and then held his pulse with one hand.

The pulse was very weak and the condition was more serious than the last time she came to see him, a sign of a terminal illness.

Sure enough, when they looked at the old man on the bed again, he was extremely weak. He could still talk to Lu Yu before, but now he just stared at the two of them with his eyes open, unable to move.

Apparently Lu Yu was busy with work and seldom came. He had no idea his father had become so ill after not seeing him for a while. His eyes immediately became moist and he pursed his lips tightly, his lips turning pale from being bitten.

Bai You didn’t have time to comfort anyone. He immediately took out the pill he had developed from his pocket, opened Lu Yu’s father’s mouth and stuffed the pill into his mouth. He then quickly took a glass of water from the water dispenser and fed it to him.

Lu Yu’s tears disappeared instantly, and he looked at Bai You in disbelief, “Goddess, is it starting now?”

Bai You stood up, sat down on a chair beside him, and said leisurely: “Otherwise, if you delay for a while, you will miss the chance.”

Lu Yu was surprised at her decisiveness and determination, but was this really possible?

Twenty minutes later, the extremely weak Mr. Qi suddenly started to cough violently, and then suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood. Lu Yu panicked immediately and looked at Bai You helplessly, “What happened?”

The situation in front of him was somewhat familiar. Bai You frowned and said, “Don’t worry, this is the body clearing toxins.”

Lu Yu’s anxious heart was instantly calmed by her.

After a while, Lu Yu’s father suddenly became much more sober, and his cloudy eyes seemed to have light in an instant. Lu Yu hurriedly half-knelt in front of him and stretched out his hand, but stopped in mid-air at a loss, “Dad, how do you feel?”

Mr. Qi said lightly, “Why are you panicking?”

Although he was not conscious, he was aware of all the noises made since Lu Yu entered the room. After all, it was too quiet here and his ears were not defective.

After a few minutes, Mr. Qi’s breathing gradually stabilized and his complexion looked much better.

She cast a heavy gaze on Bai You and asked, “What did you just feed me?”

Bai You: “Pills.”

Mr. Qi turned his gaze to Lu Yu’s face and said in a dignified voice, “She is your girlfriend?”

Lu Yu couldn’t figure out what he meant, and was afraid that he would blame him for not thinking before doing things and blaming Bai You for her unknown origins, so he quickly explained: “Dad, she is a very good doctor.”

There was a moment of silence.

After an unknown number of seconds, he spoke to Bai You again, “In your opinion, can my body recover?”

Bai You shook her head and said honestly: “But it will be better than now.” It is impossible to recover to the original state after years of torture from the virus. All she can do is to detoxify. As for how the body will recover in the future, it depends on how he treats his body.

Mr. Qi’s expression changed in an instant.

Bai You was keenly aware of a dangerous emotion.

Lu Yu quickly stepped forward to block Bai You behind him, and said word by word: “Dad, this is my decision. If you have any problems, blame me, don’t blame her.”

Mr. Qi took one last look at the two of them, closed his eyes, and rang the call bell at the bedside.

…

Lu Yu’s elder brother Qi Feng arrived an hour later.

After arriving at the scene, he gave Lu Yu a deep look without saying a word, seemingly blaming him for his reckless behavior, but in fact, it was as if he was looking at an insignificant stranger who had caused trouble and was about to be punished. Lu Yu’s heart ached instantly.

His fingers clenched into fists unconsciously, and he clenched his teeth subconsciously, his handsome face turned pale.

He walked a few steps to Bai You, with a cold and indifferent air about him, and even though his every move revealed a sense of dignity, one still felt that he was ruthless and difficult to approach.

“Miss Bai, please show me the pills you fed my father.”

It turned out that there were surveillance cameras in the ward, and every move was under his eyes.

Lu Yu said in a hoarse voice: “Brother, don’t embarrass her.”

Qi Feng looked at him coldly and said, “Get out.”

Lu Yu didn’t move.

Bai You was shocked. He knew that Lu Yu and his brother had a bad relationship, but he didn’t expect it to be this bad.

She took out the medicine bottle from her pocket, poured a pill into her hand, and handed it to the man. “Don’t be angry. I have as many pills as you want.”

Qi Feng took it and handed it to the entourage behind him. The entourage was dressed in white and should be someone from the hospital or a member of a research institute.

“Miss Bai, if my father is fine, I will pretend that this incident never happened. If something happens, the Bai family can’t protect you.”

“Brother!” Lu Yu took a deep breath, “Don’t threaten her. I will bear the consequences alone.”

Qi Feng frowned, and the two bodyguards at the door immediately walked in, grabbed Lu Yu’s arms on the left and right, and led him out.

Bai You glanced at him and signaled him not to panic. Lu Yu opened his mouth as if he wanted to speak, then slowly closed it again and cooperated as he was dragged out.

Bai You stroked her forehead. It seemed that Lu Yu was not having a good time at home either. She actually felt a sense of sympathy.

She said, “I’m always at your service, but it’s more appropriate and faster to find me than to find the Bai family.”

Then he gave him his contact information.

Qi Feng asked his assistant to write it down, raised his eyes slightly, and said calmly: “Miss Bai is not quite the same as the legend says.”

Bai You said: “That may not be the case.”

She could see that Lu Yu’s elder brother was completely different from Lu Yu. He was more careful and unemotional. He knew her identity after just one encounter. She had to be more careful in the future, otherwise he might even expose her past.

In the eyes of Cheng Suwan and Bai Sheng, she just knew some herbs. If Lu Yu’s elder brother made trouble at the Bai family, her future plans would be ruined. For now, she should stabilize her image.
