Shen Shuangjian was already used to taking medicine; he had been taking medicine since he was a child, ever since he could eat solid food.

At its worst, I was taking seven or eight different types of medicine a day, sometimes more than a dozen pills at once, which were so bitter they made me feel nauseous.

There were three or four kinds of pills of different sizes, totaling seven or eight pieces. Shen Shuangjian's throat was too narrow to swallow several at once.

He could only swallow the pills one by one with the water. Sometimes he couldn't swallow them, so he would puff out his cheeks slightly to catch his breath. The pills dissolved and tasted very bitter.

But when Shen Shuangjian, she remained expressionless, and even the slight furrowing of her brows was quickly suppressed.

"Would you like a piece of candy?"

Xie Jinghui took the water glass and put it down, simultaneously opening her palm to reveal the small candy. "I asked the doctor, it's okay."

Xie Jinghui unwrapped the candy and slowly pressed it against Shen Shuangjian's lips. Shen Shuangjian had just drunk water, and her lips, tinged with blood, were glossy.

He parted his lips slightly, put the candy in his mouth, and realized it was green apple flavored. It wasn't too sweet, but had a hint of sourness, which nicely neutralized the bitterness in his mouth.

"How about we go back to the Capital tomorrow?" Xie Jinghui said, while subtly Shen Shuangjian's expression.

Sure enough, upon hearing his words, Shen Shuangjian up as if hesitant. "But..."

Xie Jinghui, unusually, didn't let Shen Shuangjian finish speaking. He leaned down slightly and hugged Shen Shuangjian, his voice gentle.

"But your brother is very worried about your health, and so am I."

Xie Jinghui's hand ran through Shen Shuangjian's long hair, landing on her shoulder and neck. "I know you're aware of your own body, but Zhizhi, concern can cloud judgment."

Shen Shuangjian didn't speak again. He just lowered his eyes, as if to gain leverage or to make his position more comfortable. In any case, Shen Shuangjian gently rested his head on Xie Jinghui's shoulder.

Shen Shuangjian had no idea how Xie Jinghui communicated with the production team in the end.

However, the production team and investors were surprisingly easy to talk to. They not only said they would give Shen Shuangjian the money he deserved, but even gave him extra.

The reason given was simply that Shen Shuangjian's influence generated significant revenue for the production team, and since the contract hadn't been finalized before, they decided to take this opportunity to pay her everything she was owed.

In addition to the initially agreed-upon 500,000, the production team gave Shen Shuangjian an extra 13 million. Shen Shuangjian Shen Shuangjian busy undergoing a comprehensive medical examination upon arriving in Capital.

Accompanied by Shen Sixian and Xie Jinghui, the most authoritative and famous doctors in various fields were invited to the Capital to give Shen Shuangjian a very comprehensive physical examination.

Besides heart and blood clotting issues, Shen Shuangjian's stomach wasn't in good condition either. Her mild gastritis hadn't fully healed, and despite a long period of rest, she was still somewhat anemic.

Shen Shuangjian's constitution is very weak, and the physical strain she faces when she gets sick is far greater than that of a normal person.

In addition to the above problems, Shen Shuangjian's physical examination also revealed that she had a slight neurasthenia and a blood vessel blockage at the back of her head, which was why she had frequent headaches.

But even the best doctor and the most professional skills cannot handle that tiny, hair-thin blood vessel.

Fortunately, this level of severity can be alleviated with medication, and it is highly unlikely to cause any more serious consequences.

After the final physical examination, Shen Sixian's face darkened. He hugged Shen Shuangjian without saying a word, and afterwards, his expression remained unreadable.

When Shen Shuangjian the notification that the money had been deposited, she was completely bewildered as she looked at the string of numbers on the back of her bank card.

He had never actually seen so much money before. Even though the Shen Family was incredibly wealthy, Shen Shuangjian had never really witnessed it in all this time.

Shen Sixian hasn't even thought to check the card Shen Shuangjian gave him, to see how much balance is on it or how much he spends each month.

So when Shen Shuangjian it, his first reaction was that something was wrong. He hesitated for a moment and went to ask Shen Sixian, but was teased by the other party for a while with his face cupped in his hands.

Finally Shen Shuangjian was both embarrassed and angry, she barely paid any attention to Shen Sixian until dinner, and only spoke to Xie Jinghui.

Shen Sixian was not entirely satisfied, but not with Shen Shuangjian; rather, he was dissatisfied with Xie Jinghui.

When Xie Jinghui returned to the Capital, he had to take care of Shen Shuangjian, so the guest rooms in Shen Residence, which had been occupied for a long time, were finally vacated.

Xie Jinghui stayed for several days in a row, and by the end, it seemed as if he had gotten used to it, and he even brought a lot of his personal belongings with him.

In Shen Sixian's eyes, this meant that he was determined not to leave.

So, after Shen Shuangjian illness for only two days, Shen Sixian began to subtly and overtly remind Xie Jinghui.

Staying at someone's house for a couple of days is fine, but staying any longer can be annoying.

However, Xie Jinghui a deaf ear and actually treated the Shen Residence as his own home.

At the dinner table, he would serve food to Shen Shuangjian Shen Shuangjian, which was simply unreasonable.

Shen Sixian had been in a bad mood for several days, his face was gloomy, and he even reminded Shen Shuangjian in private.

Even if you're lovers, you shouldn't leave your partner at home every day.

He had hoped that Shen Shuangjian would understand his hints, side with her brother, and drive away the old man Xie Jinghui.

But to his surprise, after waiting for two days, Xie Jinghui was moving out, but he left Shen Sixian a terrible message.

He wanted to take Shen Shuangjian with him as well.

When Shen Sixian heard this news, he thought he had misheard. He was in his study at the time, and when he suddenly heard this, he looked up in surprise.

Shen Sixian: "What did you say?"

Across from his desk, Xie Jinghui brazenly held his younger brother's hand, adding with a beaming smile, " Shuangjian and I have already furnished our house and are planning to move out."

From the purchase of the house to the furnishing, Shen Shuangjian was forced to participate. She contributed a small portion of the money, and Shen Shuangjian Xie Jinghui even strongly agreed with this.

"What does your moving out Zhizhi?"

Shen Sixian glared at him with displeasure, then looked at Shen Shuangjian, who was standing silently with her head down next to Xie Jinghui.

Shen Sixian pressed his temples, feeling a terrible headache. He compromised and said, "Actually, my brother and Mr. Xie might not necessarily be incompatible. They don't necessarily have to move out."

However, Xie Jinghui many days could not be easily dismissed by Shen Sixian's few words.

Shen Shuangjian kept her head down, she felt inexplicably guilty and dared not look at Shen Sixian, and she did not understand the implied meaning of Shen Sixian's compromise at this moment.

"Otherwise, there's another small building behind it, so that would also count as setting up your own household." Shen Sixian kept backing down, even tolerating Xie Jinghui living in his home.

At this moment, all he hoped was that his Zhizhi stay where he could see it, and not be taken away from his home by that treacherous bastard Xie Jinghui.
