Proofread by Peter Gong
After reading the text, Ko Chen presses the delete button without any hesitation.
The Cat performs better than he has imagined. Gu Yi is adroit. It is very difficult for ordinary people to lie in front of him. But the Cat is an exception. He remains calm and unfazed when things happen and sudden changes come. He appreciates this a lot.
Gu’s company has been on the rise for the past two years, which has caused a certain impact on Ko’s company. Gu Yi is his business adversary. So, Ko Chen has done a lot of work about him. Ko Chen knows Gu Yi well. So, he feels uneasy with Gu Yi staying around Yu Fei.
Thinking of Yu Fei, Ko Chen feels a sudden burst of pain inside his body. Things go dark in front of him. He doesn’t even have time to call Duan Tsingfong before he falls down. His voice is covered by the thick carpet, and he only makes a dull noise.
Before he passes out, the only one Ko Chen thinks about in his mind is Yu Fei. Her figure seems to be in front of his eyes for a long time and remains forever. In addition to the physical pain, he feels that his heart pains a lot. It is as if his heart is held by an invisible large hand so tightly that it almost bleeds.
Fortunately, not long after, the secretary comes in to hand in the documents. She finds Ko Chen lying on the ground unconsciously, so she hurries to call Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang freaks out when he receives the phone call and he immediately rushes to the company with Duan Tsingfong.
Duan Tsingfong hurries into the office in a hurry. He sees Ko Chen lying pale on the ground. The secretary stands sideways. She is in panic and doesn’t know what to do.
"Take him to the lounge." With only one glance at Ko’s face, Duan Tsingfong roughly diagnoses how bad his disease is. He frowns.
According to the current situation of Ko Chen, each time he suffers a seizure, his disease gets worse, and he is closer to death.

Uncle Zhang stays outside the lounge with his palms sweating. He is so nervous. He still remembers how Ko Hua was like when he had his seizure again and again. He knows better than anyone else how this disease tortures a person to such a miserable extent.
After two hours, Duan Tsingfong gets out, wiping the sweat on his forehead.
Uncle Zhang asks him about Ko Chen’s situation uneasily.
Duan Tsingfong doesn’t look well. He shakes his head without saying a word. Uncle Zhang understands it without further explanation.
Uncle Zhang takes a look at the lounge. Ko Chen is lying on the bed with his eyes closed. His face is as pale as ever.
"Mr. Ko still refuses the treatment?"
Since Duan Tsingfong's mentor’s email says that the experiment has failed, Ko Chen loses hope of being cured gradually. Now that his relationship with Yu Fei gets worse and worse, his desire to survive has been even more depressed.
Duan Tsingfong nods. He also doesn’t know what to do.
"He is unwilling to be treated, even if I were Hua Tuo [one of the most famous doctors in ancient China], there is no way that I can help him." Duan Tsingfong really wants to help his old friend. He has never encountered such frustration in treating patients. He feels a sense of helplessness for the first time when he treats Ko Chen.
Yu Fei comes out from the entrance of the hospital. She just has her antenatal check. Suddenly, she gets a palpitation. With her hands on the wall, she is able to stand still and avoid falling down.
After resting for two minutes, she has no more heart palpitations. But her heart still beats fast. Yu Fei swallows briefly and covers her breast with her hand. She doesn't know what’s wrong with her.
Maybe it’s the pregnancy reaction? Yu Fei comforts herself as she watches people coming and going in front of the hospital.
After calming herself down, Yu Fei exhales a long breath and then continues walking slowly. As soon as she reaches the side of the roadway, a car stops in front of her.
The car window goes down. It is Gu Yi who sits in the rear seat. He waves to her with a big smile.

Yu Fei responds with a sweet smile. It looks sweeter under the sunshine.
Gu Yi looks at Yu Fei's smiling face as if taking a bite of marshmallow. He feels sweet in his heart.
"Get in the car." Gu Yi invites her by waving his hand inwards. He opens the door for her.
Yu Fei gets into the car. Gu Yi asks how her baby is with concern. At first, he is going to accompany Yu Fei for the prenatal care but he is rejected. Yu Fei insists that she goes by herself.
Gu Yi can’t convince her. So, he let Yu Fei go alone. But when he is working in the company, he can’t help thinking about her. By the time when he thinks Yu Fei has her prenatal check, he rushes to the hospital to pick her up.
"Doctor said that the baby is doing well and is growing up healthily."
Yu Fei gives a smile full of motherly love and she touches her lower abdomen with her palms swiftly. The child she has is her only hope now. Without him, Yu Fei doesn’t know how she is going to make it through.
Seeing Yu Fei looks so happy, Gu Yi's feels very happy as well. Although Ko Chen is the father of her child, he would like to love the child because he loves Yu Fei.
"Wanna eat something?"
Yu Fei shakes her head. She gets up late in the morning and has lunch shortly before going out. She still feels full.
Gu Yi gazes at Yu Fei with one hand supporting his cheek. He thinks for a while and comes and suggests: "How about we go for grocery shopping and then go back to cook?”
Yu Fei always likes cooking in the kitchen. So, when she hears what Gu Yi suggests, she says yes with pleasure.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yi gives her a naughty smile. Then he goes on to say: "But this time you are not allowed to do anything, I will make you a rich meal."
"Then ..." As soon as she hears what Gu Yi says, Yu Fei gets worried and tries to say something immediately. But she just says a word when Gu Yi interrupts her.
The man's forefinger rests lightly on her lips. The unprecedented touch makes both of them freeze.
Gu Yi withdraws his hand hurriedly. Yu Fei's face flushes. Both of them look away without saying a word.
The car is running smoothly on the road. The driver glances back at Gu Yi through the rear-view mirror and asks carefully, "Mr. Gu Yi, where are we going?"
Gu Yi takes a glance at Yu Fei secretly. She doesn't say anything. He thinks twice and says: “To the grocery store.”
Yi and Yu Fei still feel awkward when they get out of the car.
Yu Fei feels annoyed in her mind. She regrets after promising Gu Yi to think
about taking their relationship seriously the night before. But things go on like this. They seem so intimate right now.
Unlike Yu Fei, Gu Yi doesn’t think about it in his mind. Gu Yi has been secretly paying attention to her reaction. He feels that Yu Fei is cute and he can't help but reach out and hold her hand.
Yu Fei shudders when he touches her. She looks at him in panic, trying to break free. But Gu Yi's hand is much stronger than hers. Her hands hold so tightly that she can’t make her hand free.
Regardless of her reaction, Gu Yi directly takes her to the grocery store. They two look like a happy couple. They look so perfect together.
Gu Yi pretends not to know the struggle in Yu Fei's heart. He takes her to the fresh food section and asks her softly what she wants to eat.
Yu Fei doesn’t feel hungry before they go in. But she somehow feels hungry and swallows unconsciously when she sees those red and green fresh fruits and vegetables.
This small action happens to be caught in the eyes of Gu Yi, and he laughs about it.
"Fei, give me a chance to woo you."

Mr Reigns
I was going to die on the stairs. Before I could actually feel the other steps of the stairs, I felt hands wrapped themselves around my waist. My eyes were closed. Why do we close our eyes when there were some dangers? That was stupid. As if with closed eyes, we weren't going to feel any pain. "Fuck. Are you okay?" I opened my eyes quickly when I heard this deep sexy voice. My eyes widened at the sexy piece of human standing in front of me. No human had the right to be that sexy. "God?" I asked. When he rose one of his perfect eyebrows in confusion, I realized how stupid I sounded. His perfect face was everything. His well trimmed beard made him look so handsome. His green eyes was hypnotizing. As his body was pressed against mine, I could feel how muscular he was. He helped up stand up and roughly let go of me. His eyes trailed to the floor. I followed his eyes to see a cigarette on the floor. "I'm sorry?" I more like questioned. Was I supposed to apologize for the wasted cigarette which was going to ruin his health? "Thank you" I said when I decided to look at him again. He was already staring at me. He was wearing a black suit. His hair was perfectly fixed. I wonder how would he look if his hair was messy and he was wearing a Jean. Noticing that he was not going to say anything else, I stared at the stairs. "I'm going to go" I simply said and walked down the stairs carefully. When I was on the grass, I gently lifted my dress so that it wouldn't be ruined and walked bare feet on the grass. I turned my head slightly to look at the man, who seemed to be observing me. He was still on the stairs, his eyes on me. He was model worthy. He did seem to the snobby type of man. I quickly turned around to face the woods. That man could take the breath away just by his looks.
