Chapter 1449: Chapter 1453: Heavy
The living room was so silent that the sound of a pin dropping could be heard.
Ti passed, second by second.
Although it was barely over an hour, everyone felt as if a century had crawled by.
Gu Qi’s phone finally rang, his voice low and incredibly heavy: “Young Master, I’ve found out. The girl who injured the Young Madam and Situ Jinse is nad An Keqing. She… she… she’s an AIDS patient.”
The last five words were almost imperceptible, yet they landed in Gu Junzhu’s ears like a thunderclap.
Even though he had already harbored a sense of unease, until it was confird, there was always a sliver of hope—hoping it was his paranoia, hoping Ye Xingbei was lucky.
But now, Gu Qi’s answer rcilessly shattered that small shred of hope.
He gripped his phone tightly and gave an icy command: “Bring her here… no, bring her to my villa!”
He hung up the phone, stood up, and said, “I’m heading out for a bit.”
Ye Xingbei stopped him, staring pale-faced into his eyes. “What did Xiao Gu Qi say?”
She tried to glean sothing off Gu Junzhu’s face, but his expression remained as cold and emotionless as ever, giving her no clue.
“Xiao Gu Qi said he found the woman who injured you and Jinse,” Gu Junzhu replied. “I told Xiao Gu Qi to bring her to our villa. I’m going to et her.”
Ye Xingbei asked eagerly, “Did Xiao Gu Qi ntion if she has any diseases?”
“She’s healthy. No diseases at all.” Gu Junzhu reached out to touch Ye Xingbei.
Ye Xingbei instinctively stepped back, avoiding him, and questioned suspiciously, “Really?”
“Beibei, don’t worry,” Gu Junzhu said reassuringly. “Even if it’s really AIDS, taking post-exposure prophylactic dication early can prevent transmission.”
Gu Junzhu looked at Yun Jue.
Yun Jue imdiately nodded. “Yes, Little Aunt, you were only injured today, right? Even if that person really is an AIDS patient, starting dication imdiately reduces the chances of transmission to very low.”
“Yes, I was only injured this afternoon…” Ye Xingbei murmured, “The chances of transmission are very low… so… failure to block it is also possible, isn’t it?”
Yun Jue looked helplessly at Gu Junzhu.
Gu Junzhu closed his eyes briefly and said, “Fine, you should all co along.”
After learning that An Keqing was an AIDS patient, his first instinct was to hide the truth from Ye Xingbei.
But he quickly realized that imdiate dical intervention required Ye Xingbei’s cooperation, making it impossible to conceal.
Early treatnt was crucial.
Ye Xingbei wasn’t foolish.
Even if he tried to withhold the truth, she would still suspect it.
Rather than letting her stew in anxiety and fear, it was better to confront the issue head-on.
His family had access to the best biologists, the best doctors, and the most effective dication. With early detection, he was confident the prophylactic treatnt would succeed!
Qiao Zui looked at Mi Sheng, just about to suggest she stay ho to rest, but Mi Sheng spoke first, “I’m coming too!”
At that mont, a heavy weight pressed down on Mi Sheng’s heart, so oppressive that she almost couldn’t breathe.
She worried more than Ye Xingbei did.
Ye Xingbei’s thoughts revolved around what illness or poison she might have contracted now.
anwhile, Mi Sheng couldn’t help but wonder: Why did that woman harm Ye Xingbei and Situ Jinse?
Ye Xingbei and Situ Jinse had been unrelated.
It was Mi Sheng who linked the two.
The only person Mi Sheng could think of who hated both Ye Xingbei and Situ Jinse was one—Situ Lanyu!
