Her voice was a little strained.

Cheng Juan's heart sank even more, as he nodded his head very quietly.

"That's good." Chen Shulan closed her eyes and managed to smile with some difficulty. "From the summer break onwards, I haven't bought anything for her. I can't survive past... past this winter anymore. And the... the person I can't bear to leave most is her..." She grabbed Cheng Juan's hand even tighter. "Now I'm more assured."

Her cloudy eyes finally showed signs of a smile.

"I have a request." Chen Shulan took a breath as she spoke halfway, before resuming her words while looking at Cheng Juan.

Cheng Juan lowered his head steadily and looked at her. "Please continue."

Chen Shulan gazed towards the direction of the door. "Can you help me take good care of Ran Ran?"

As early as half a year ago, Chen Shulan was already aware of her own condition and also took notice of Cheng Juan's presence upon Qin Ran's hand injury incident.

After so many years, nobody but Qin Ran herself could cure her rebellious nature.

A few months before, Chen Shulan already found out that Qin Ran had set a few alarms on her phone, and when the alarms went off, even though she tended to get frustrated, she would still remember to take her medications.

That was Chen Shulan's first encounter with Cheng Juan's existence.

Afterward, she fell sick and officially met him for the first time.

Cheng Juan lowered his eyes and was seemingly guilty as he nodded his head under Chen Shulan's gaze.

Chen Shulan finally heaved a sigh of relief while seemingly smiling. "It's... It's about time for me to go."

Cheng Juan pursed lips, stood up, and opened the emergency room door.

Upon seeing the door open, Ning Qing and the others outside all rushed into the room.

"Mom! Doctor! Doctor, please hurry!" Ning Qing's cries echoed from the room.

The doctors rushed inside immediately.

Qin Ran raised her head and looked at Cheng Juan.

Cheng Juan lowered his head slightly, reached out for her shoulder, and softly said, "You should go in and see your grandma."

A large crowd of people rushed into the room.

The doctor arrived and examined, only to shake his head at Ning Qing and Ning Wei who were crying miserably. "Ms. Chen's body cells are being irradiated to their limits. A medical report was issued this morning. If we're able to find a regenerating enzyme, there may still be a string of hope."

"Regenerating enzyme?" In the room, Ning Qing and a few others were crying miserably, and perhaps only Lin Qi and Old Master Lin managed to maintain their cool. Lin Qi looked at the doctor and asked in a low tone, "Where can we get it?"

Ning Qing also turned her head and nervously looked at the doctor as she opened her mouth while choking. "Doctor, I beg you to use whatever method there is..."

The doctor shook his head and sighed. "The regenerating enzyme was just made known this morning, but any other specifications are not made known to us. However, even if the enzyme is found, only Gu Xichi has it. He's a medical school graduate, but very few people have heard of his name. It will be hard even for Federal Medical Organization to find him."

Both Lin Qi and Old Master Lin had never even heard of Gu Xichi before, but they had definitely heard of the Medical Organization.

Upon hearing what the doctor said, they also roughly came to understand how much of an impressive figure that graduate must be.
