4543: The Other Side 512

The Other Side 512

Alice's eyes widened in shock. "What!?"0

"You're not to set down a self-fulfilling prophecy!"

"Self-fulfilling prophecy?" What did that mean?

"Haven't you ever come across it? In many television dramas, the general says to his childhood sweetheart, 'When I'm done with this war, I'll come back and marry you.'"

"So?"

The actor replied gloomily, "Then the general dies on the battlefield, and never makes it back."

Alice fell silent.

"You see, Shishi also said that with Little Yichen's impressive history of good health, he'd not fall sick easily. Now, you see, when it rains, it pours. He's in full isolated now. Shishi can't even visit him."

Alice licked her lips awkwardly and began to fidget. "Pfft, pfft, pfft!" She quickly spat.

Hua Jin sat slumped on the sofa. Now, despite his desire to return home, he could not. He had no idea where Gong Jie was. Although it was absolutely safe here, he could not go anywhere else except here.

Anxiety.

Troubled thoughts…

…

It was another tormenting few days.

Then good news came from the hospital…

The leading professor had already extracted the influenza virus genes in the research lab and was already in the midst of vaccine research.

Everyone was looking forward to the development of a vaccine to cure the viral influenza as soon as possible.

Chu He inquired about Baby Chu's condition at the office. Compared to Little Yichen, Baby Chu's condition was gradually stabilizing.

"You must be well-acquainted with Little Yichen's parents, right?" the doctor asked indirectly. Chu He nodded. She had come to the office alone, so the doctor told her everything. "Compared to Baby Chu, Little Yichen's condition doesn't seem to be that optimistic. A kid with the same serious illness as him had unfortunately passed away this morning…"

"…"

Chu He's expression froze when she heard this.

"You mean…"

"I want her to be mentally prepared, but I don't dare to say this in front of her."

Chu He's gaze fell on the stack of files next to the doctor. On it was a document for the donation of the deceased's body for medical research. In the age column, "7 years old" was indicated. It was mostly likely that the document was associated with the child who died of influenza this morning?!

She was only seven years old…

So young.

She was about the same age as Baby Chu.

Just imagining it made Chu He's heart ache. She really could not imagine the sort of pain that the child's parents had to endure when they signed the donation agreement.

The doctor took a look at the document and let out a long sigh. There were obvious traces of tears at the corners of his eyes.

"She was a lovely girl. Before she died, she said that her wish was that this influenza virus would be eradicated. Her parents are university professors. When they learned of their daughter's wish, they signed this donation agreement."

Clenching her fists, Chu He calmed herself down and asked, "Well then… Little Yichen… is he in an equally serious condition?"

The doctor told her honestly, "Yes, much more serious than this, actually."

"What!?"

Little Yichen's condition is more serious than this girl's?!

Wouldn't that mean he was in very critical condition?!

Impossible. During the video calls with Yun Shishi, he seemed very relaxed.

"This girl died suddenly from viral pneumonia during the infusion this morning. There was no warning."
