She took off her mask and protection suit and came out of the isolation ward area. The old lady and others were waiting for her in the lounge. A staff led her to meet her family, and she found everyone put on different faces.

Especially Xu Yan…

His eyes were so deep and dark, like being covered with a layer of dust.

Xia Xingchen intentionally ignored him and went directly to the old lady, “Grandma, don’t worry, Dad is in good condition. Besides, as Mr. President said, the medicine will be produced soon, by then Dad will be cured.

“That’s good.” The old lady nodded reassuringly.

Li Lingyi said sourly, “Xingchen, you really didn't waste your time messing up with those lousy men. Some unmarried pregnant women like you are just different from ordinary girls, you can hook up any kind of man as you like. I just don’t know what will happen if the men seduced by you know you’ve been so dissolute before.

Xia Xingchen immediately realized what was going on now.

There were so many CCTV in that ward, and obviously, they had witnessed everything…

Not only she knew that Bai Yeqing's caring about her, but they also observed that.

Xia Xingchen knew what the purpose of Li Lingyi was, she then smiled more brilliantly, “Speaking of these, you are much more experienced than me, aren't you? My Dad knows everything about your past, but he's still on your hook, isn't he?”

“You!”

Li Lingyi felt awkward, she didn't expect Xia Xingchen to mention what she had done in the past. When she turned to the old lady, sure enough, the latter's face looked as cold as ice.

The old lady had long since been unsatisfied with Xia Guopeng's remarriage, so these years, Li Lingyi behaved modest and pleased her with claptrap, then the tension between the two finally eased a little. Now Xia Xingchen mentioned the past again, the old lady would naturally be unhappy.

Li Lingyi would have wanted to refute Xia Xingchen's accusation, but someone suddenly pushed the door open.

When they looked to the door, they were all shocked.

Bai Yeqing stood in the doorway like a superstar, even if he had done nothing, the light of his eyes already made people feel difficult to breathe.

As if they would submit to him at once.

“Mr. President.” Xu Yan was the first to break the silence.

He took a step forward and saluted Bai Yeqing respectfully.

Bai Yeqing nodded in response to Xu Yan, and then he made a gesture to Leng Fei and others to stop behind him while he alone entering and shaking hands with the old lady.

“You may rest assured as Mr. Xia will be discharged from hospital soon.”

“Mr. President, we can be at ease since you said that. Thanks for your concern.”

“My pleasure.”

He remained calm as usual.

Then, without saying anything more, he was ready to leave. As turning around, he shot a glance at Xia Xingchen.

When Xia Xingchen caught his sight, the emotions in her heart burst out.

She worried about him so much that she unconsciously reached out and pulled the corner of his suit while he was turning around.

Bai Yeqing stopped at once.

He turned his head.

Then these two people looked directly into the eyes of each other and found ambiguous light sparkling.

“What's wrong?” He asked in a flat voice.

“… If you have any symptoms later, you must go to Doctor Fu as soon as possible.”

The concern in her eyes was completely exposed.

Bai Yeqing raised his brows, “So what symptoms do you hope I will have?”

“None!” Xia Xingchen shook her head and frowned, “I hope nothing bad happens to you!”

After a long while, he finally whispered, “I see.”

After that, he didn’t move.

And his eyes fell on her hand, which was still holding his clothes. Xia Xingchen then realized that and she let go and put her hands behind.

Well, it’s a bit embarrassing.

He looked at her again and saw her blushed face, then turned around. At this moment, there seemed to be a trace of smiling on his calm face, which made him very charming.

On the other side, Xu Yan watched them with shock.

And the other three all harbored their own thoughts.

Before they just suspected Xia Xingchen’s relationship with the president, but now their interactions had verified that!

… …

Xia Xingchen went back to the Foreign Ministry, and Xu Yan drove the other three back home.

There were four people in the car, and all of them were contemplating except for the old lady.

Originally, they knew the condition of Xia Guopeng, met and talked to Mr. President today, all of them should be happy. However, the three of them were extremely upset at this moment.

Li Lingyi had wanted to ask for the password of the bank card. Now, she had completely forgotten that but only remembered Xia Xingchen and Mr. President exchanging glances and holding hands.

When she thought of it, she would feel chest pain.

Why is that woman so lucky?

… …

Two days later.

Xia Xingchen had a fever as expected.

When the servant woke her up, she was in a complete dizziness and sweat was around her body. When she touched her forehead, she was frightened by the amazing heat.

Is this caused by WIS?

I am really infected with the virus two days ago in the hospital?

“Miss Xia, are you awake?” Without hearing anything, the servant knocked on the door again, “you are going to be late for work.”

“I’m awake.” Xia Xingchen responded, then she found her voice become hoarse. She thought for a moment and continued, “I won’t eat breakfast, please go down and tell little master and Mr. President – they don't have to wait for me, I’m… taking a bath."

If it’s really a WIS infection, what she can do now is to avoid contact with them.

Besides…

She has to move out quickly and have a full physical examination.

Bai Yeqing and Xia Dabai didn’t take her excuse seriously and left. Upstairs, Xia Xingchen packed some clothes, put on a mask and hurried down.

“Miss Xia.” The butler greeted her.

Xia Xingchen covered her nose and stepped back cautiously, “Mr. butler, when little master comes back in the afternoon, please tell him that I won’t be back for several days. And please take good care of him for me."

“Miss Xia is in a hurry?” Seeing her tense look, the butler asked her with concern.

She shook her head, then hurried out of the presidential residence.

… …

She immediately rushed to the hospital without stopping. She had a very bad fever, and when she sat on a taxi, everything outside the window looked vague and illusory in her eyes, she couldn't focus on any specific objects.

She got more frightened as the temperature went higher.
