Susu held back the tears in her eyes, a smile on her lips as she said, "Okay, with you accompanying me, and with Ya Nan saying she'll come help me. You don't need to worry, I'll be fine."
Qin Tianyi gazed at her, his eyes firm as he said, "Susu, I absolutely won't let anything happen to you. We still have so many wishes for the future that haven't been realized. You're not allowed to leave me again."
The tears that Susu had been holding back still fell. She whispered, "Okay," then immediately turned, picked up the bowls and plates, and left the bedroom.
Leaning against the outer wall, she thought mournfully, how could she not know how difficult it would be to get through this on her own? But if this continued, she would become a burden to Tianyi. Would she have to rely on medication for the rest of her life?
So, she wanted to take a chance. Even if it meant risking her life, she had to endure it herself and return to a normal life, to happily spend their already arrived happy life together with Tianyi.
She thought of someone. Perhaps only he could help her.
She knew better than anyone that neither Tianyi nor Ya Nan could bear to see her in unbearable pain. When she fainted from the pain, they would still inject her with that medicine.
The next day, Qin Tianyi accompanied her to the hospital, where she underwent another full body examination.
Several domestic and international experts analyzed her poisoning situation. They thought of several ways to alleviate the intense itching and pain during episodes, but for the time being, there was still no way to completely eliminate the poisoning symptoms.
The experts unanimously told Qin Tianyi that they needed time to go back and conduct experiments and research. After all, the complexity of pharmacology and the reactions it caused in the human body required repeated verification and experimentation.
Qin Tianyi's face was grim, and he wished he could scold these experts for their uselessness.
Susu secretly stopped him and politely thanked the experts.
After they left the hospital, Qin Tianyi sat in the car with a sullen expression, not speaking. Inwardly, he felt more distressed than anyone.
He had hoped that these experts would have a good way to eliminate the side effects of the drug before Susu's next episode, so she wouldn't have to suffer like that.
But listening to the experts' tone today, it seemed like it would take at least a year or a half to get results. This meant Susu would have to endure it once every month.
If that were the case, it would be better to inject the drug in advance before her episode, at least she wouldn't have to watch her suffer so much.
Susu tugged at his clothes, trying to cheer him up. "Don't be like this. At least the experts just proposed several medications to alleviate the symptoms. When I have an episode again, it won't be as unbearable. If I just persevere, I'll get through it."
Qin Tianyi looked at her with heartache and said, "Didn't you hear them say that taking too much of the symptom-alleviating medication also has side effects? I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle it."
"You have to give them time. This new anti-cancer drug I was injected with has never been marketed, nor was it developed by them. It's useless to pressure them. You can't just let them treat me haphazardly."
Qin Tianyi hugged her tightly and said, "Damn Yang Sijie. He went to hell himself, yet he won't let you rest in peace. Letting him die like that was too good for him!"
"I never thought he would become so terrifying," Susu said softly, leaning against his shoulder. "After he was persecuted by his adoptive parents, not only did his body have problems, but his mind also had serious issues..."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. He deserved to die." Qin Tianyi rested his head against hers and said, "Now, for us, the most important thing is for you to get better and stop suffering this inhuman torment."
Susu smiled and said, "Aren't I doing fine now? Fortunately, it doesn't happen every day."
Qin Tianyi said exasperatedly, "You can still find joy in this? Do you know how much my heart aches?"
"After experiencing so much, I've long learned to find joy in hardship. Anyway, whether I'm happy or not, each day passes the same. I can't just be scared every day by worrying about it before it even happens."
"You, you're just too strong. So strong that it makes people's hearts ache," Qin Tianyi commanded. "From now on, you need to be more clingy with me. You're not allowed to be so strong anymore."
His commanding tone amused Xiao Lin, who was driving in front.
Susu sat up straighter and playfully hit him. "Are you being this overbearing and unreasonable?"
Qin Tianyi wanted to retort, but fearing he would say something shocking again and make Xiao Lin laugh, she quickly covered his mouth and preempted him. "I want to go to Dechuan. There's a problem with the sample making at the factory we're cooperating with there. Ya Nan asked me to go and see it personally."
Qin Tianyi pushed her hand away. "I'll go with you. I'm not at ease with you going alone."
"You're still recovering from your injuries, you can't run around everywhere. Dechuan isn't far from Lancheng, and I'll be back in a day or two."
"No, what if you have an episode during these two days? The doctor only said I can't do strenuous exercise, not that I can't travel. " Qin Tianyi still disagreed.
Susu leaned into his embrace and pouted, "You'd better not come with us. With Ya Nan by my side, she'll contact you if anything happens, okay? It's so inconvenient for you to run around with two women."
Qin Tianyi poked her with a finger and said, "In any case, I'm not at ease with you going to Dechuan at this time."
"You just told me to be clingy, and now my clinginess doesn't work?" Susu said angrily.
Qin Tianyi's expression turned cold. "That's a different matter."
"With Xiao Lin driving me, what could happen? Besides, Xiao Lin's skills are also very good. You should rest assured at home. You can't stop me from going out to work alone just because of these side effects that might occur at any time."
As she spoke, she reached out and pinched his cheek, continuing to coax him. "You look so scary like this. Could you smile for me?"
Qin Tianyi was utterly helpless against her. He could only grin and force a smile. "Then you take care of yourself and contact me anytime if anything happens."
Seeing that he had agreed, Susu happily kissed his cheek.
He immediately said to Xiao Lin, "After you accompany the young madam there, stay in Dechuan and follow the young madam's instructions at all times."
"Yes, Mr. Qin."
Susu sat up straighter and leaned back in her seat, thinking that Qin Tianyi was so worried about her. She would go to Dechuan first, and after meeting Ya Nan, Ya Nan should help her.
Since she couldn't ask that person for help, she would have that person come to Dechuan.
Qin Tianyi suddenly leaned over and kissed her, saying irritably, "You kissed me first, igniting me, and now you want to wash your hands of me."
Susu glanced at Xiao Lin, who was driving in the front seat, and wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
But Qin Tianyi gave her no chance to speak or struggle. Xiao Lin, being perceptive, quickly raised the black partition.
...
Ya Nan was busy in the shop when she suddenly saw Susu arrive, which was quite unexpected.
"Why are you here? Has Qin Tianyi recovered?"
"Not yet, he's recuperating at home. I just wanted to come and see you." Seeing that there were customers in the shop and it wasn't convenient to talk much, Susu put down her bag and helped her serve the customers.
After they finished with the rush, Ya Nan pulled her aside, away from the shop assistants, and asked, "Did something happen? Why did you suddenly come here?"
