"What?"
"After taking the dicine, I only have two days to live."
Hao Yansen was taken aback; he hadn’t expected the dicine Zhan Sheng took today to have such severe consequences.
"The poison in my body, only they have the antidote. Without it, I’ll either die in pain or hold on for two days. I’ve already taken the dicine, just two days left, so there’s naturally no need to continue."
"What happens if you take the antidote within two days?" Hao Yansen asked sharply.
Zhan Sheng fell silent again.
There was no need to ask; taking the antidote within two days would save him.
So it was for Hua Ling that he chose to give up.
"Zhan Sheng, sacrificing yourself in this way, I think Hua Ling wouldn’t accept it." Hao Yansen kindly said to him.
Zhan Sheng abruptly gave him a cold look, "He doesn’t need to know! You don’t need to say anything, this is my own choice. Hao Yansen, the reason I chose to stand on your side is to have you conceal everything for , including my death!"
He didn’t want Hua Ling to know these things, much less see him die.
Hua Ling was so determined to save him; if he saw him die, he would definitely be unable to accept it.
And he hoped he could continue to live in his heart, to let him believe he was still alive.
"I understand." Hao Yansen nodded, "I will respect your choice."
Zhan Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you."
"If you have any other requests now, feel free to ask."
Zhan Sheng was montarily stunned, then answered, "I want to leave, to Haidao City..."
To Hua Ling’s hotown, where they first t. To see what the places they used to be together looked like.
"Alright, I will make arrangents."
...
That night, Hua Ling had never felt the night so long.
He thought for the entire night and decided to let Zhan Sheng leave here, to return to the Ansheng Group.
He was willing for him to beco a bad person, to die for the Ansheng Group rather than die from the poison.
When daylight finally broke, Hua Ling went to find Zhan Sheng.
But his room was empty, the bed unoccupied.
"Where is he?" Hua Ling asked others in confusion, but everyone said they hadn’t seen him.
Hua Ling searched everywhere but couldn’t find him, no matter who he asked, they all said they hadn’t seen him.
Hua Ling finally realized sothing was wrong and felt panicked.
He ran to find Shang Shi, "Have you seen Zhan Sheng?"
Shang Shi hesitated and said, "You can ask the young master."
"What do you an? Where is Hao Yansen?"
Following Shang Shi, they found Hao Yansen, and Hua Ling rushed over to ask him, "Young Master Hao, where is Zhan Sheng? I can’t find him anywhere."
Hao Yansen looked up from a pile of docunts and calmly answered, "He’s gone."
Hua Ling was stunned, "What do you an by he’s gone?"
"Last night he ca to , said he wouldn’t live past tomorrow, and asked to let him leave. I agreed."
"What are you saying?" Hua Ling’s eyes widened in shock, "Zhan Sheng won’t live past tomorrow?!"
"Yes. That’s what he said. He requested to leave, for the sake of Luoyun and you, I agreed." Hao Yansen’s tone remained calm.
But Hua Ling was very angry, "Why didn’t you tell ?! He’s already like this, how could you let him leave? We should be trying to save him! How could you let him go!"
This was the first ti Hua Ling spoke to Hao Yansen in such an angry tone.
