Rebirth: Back to before the tragedy

Chapter 193 Fainting

Lanxi Villa

Chi Morong stepped into Lanxi Villa with a serious expression, and Aunt Wang hurriedly handed him a pair of slippers.

He frowned, glanced at the closed door upstairs, and asked, "Is the doctor here?"

Aunt Wang took the coat he took off and although she was anxious, she still tried her best to remain calm and answered: "Miss Jiang is being given a nutrient solution up there now."

Chi Morong's heart sank. The doctor's arrival did not ease his inner anxiety.

He quickly walked to the room on the second floor and gently pushed open the door. The light in the room was soft and warm.

"Mr. Chi."

In the room, the family doctor was packing the medical box. He saw the man come in and greeted him.

Chi Morong nodded to the doctor and walked to the bedside.

He gently held the woman's soft hand on the bed, feeling her body temperature, and asked,

"How is her health?"

"Mr. Chi, Miss Jiang is fine. She fainted this time because she was weak after not eating for a long time. I have given her a nutrient solution. She will just need to eat some liquid food for the next few days so that her body can slowly adapt."

The doctor's words made Chi Morong feel relieved.

He stared at the woman with her eyes closed on the bed, feeling a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

He didn't let her go out in order to protect her and keep her under his wing. He didn't want what happened last night to happen again.

However, the weak body of the woman lying on the bed in front of him seemed to tell him that this approach was wrong.

He didn't expect her to be so stubborn.

Acquiring a company is not that simple. During these three days, the entire think tank in the company worked overtime.

Chi Morong wanted to clear up all hidden dangers for her and give her a surprise.

That's why she didn't come back on the first day. He thought the woman was just being petty and throwing a tantrum.

When Aunt Wang called him the next day and said that she still didn't want to eat, Chi Morong hesitated about coming back, but he only hesitated for a moment and did not come back. Instead, he put pressure on the think tank to speed up the acquisition.

He wanted to settle everything before coming back to give her a surprise.

Chi Morong even imagined what her expression would be when she saw the gift he gave her. Surprised? Happy?

But when he heard that the woman had fainted, he became anxious.

Chi Morong really didn't expect that she would be so stubborn and so cruel to him.

Chi Morong took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

He gently held the little hand that was not pierced with the needle in his palm and placed it against his face.

Touching the soft skin, he felt heartbroken and powerless.

His eyes were fixed on the woman lying there quietly.

The small face, which was as big as a palm, lost its former rosiness and luster and became pale and dull.

The delicate red lips become dry and even peeling due to lack of water.

The long eyelashes like those of a crow blocked the pair of big, black and bright eyes.

Chi Morong gently stroked the woman's cheek, as if hoping to awaken her sleeping soul with his warmth and love.

He remembered how she used to look when she woke up in the morning, always refreshed and full of vitality.

But now, her face was filled with fatigue and paleness, as if she had lost the vitality of life.

Chi Morong's eyes fell on her dry lips. He picked up the water cup from the table next to him, wet the cotton swab, and used it to moisten the woman's lips.

Seeing this scene, the family doctor walked out of the room and closed the door gently.
