My Demon Husband Is a Snake-Chapter 51 Have you found a partner yet?

"Big sister, you really did put your heart into this, and I appreciate your sentiment," Chen Shufen accepted the sachet with gratitude, her face betraying a bit of shame, "Ah, if the results aren’t good, you and your mom will have to look for another place to stay again, but there’s nothing my husband and I can do about that." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

It seemed she didn’t take it seriously, nor did she believe what I said.

It was almost impossible to actually have Chen Decheng wear the sachet.

I took a deep breath and held Chen Shufen’s hand with a serious look on my face, "Boss Lady, listen to me, this sachet is not like the others—if the boss has a slight illness, it could actually help. You must believe me and make sure the boss wears it."

In fact, if Chen Decheng really was in the late stages of cancer,

Even if I had made an entire Disease-Expelling Robe, it would have been too late, let alone a tiny Disease-Expelling Sachet.

Otherwise, my dad wouldn’t have been driven to kill Snake Lord in his desperation to save his own life when he was in the late stages of cancer.

Now, I was just hoping that the sachet could bring about even a slight change.

Chen Shufen held the sachet in her hands, falling into a long silence before her eyes brightened, "Alright, since you’re so certain, I’ll take your word for it, girl! A dying horse can still be a live horse doctor, after all."

After chatting about this, Chen Shufen and I together cleaned up the aftermath of the drinking.

We helped the few who had collapsed drunk back to their rooms to sleep.

Three days later, Chen Decheng went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, with results expected in about three or four days.

And so, a week passed.

After finishing the morning’s business, everyone sat at the vacant tables waiting for news.

"The boss and boss lady are back!" Xiao Li, with her sharp eyes, saw the arrivals at the door and immediately sprang to her feet.

Everyone looked eagerly at them, "How did it go? How did it go?"

"What’s the result? It’s definitely nothing, right?"

Chen Decheng’s face was grim.

Seeing this, everyone’s face fell.

Then, Chen Decheng slapped the medical report and several red envelopes on the table, laughing, "Just kidding with you guys, I’m fine, I’m not sick."

"What do you mean you’re not sick?" Xiao Li’s eyes widened.

The others also started to discuss feverishly, jostling to look at the report, "Wasn’t there a shadow though?"

"Yeah, I thought the best news would be that it’s benign."

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a gloomy mouth you have, go touch wood, touch wood right now."

Chen Decheng let out a sigh of relief and said helplessly, "This time the X-ray didn’t show any shadows at all, maybe something was wrong the last time."

The red envelopes were distributed, and everyone was overjoyed.

Especially those who were tight with Chen Decheng, they nearly cried with happiness.

A few brothers hooked arms and went out to drink liberally.

I opened my own red envelope to see it contained an extra one hundred, and I asked Chen Shufen quietly next to me, "Why do I have an extra one hundred? Was it a mistake?"

"Thank you for the sachet you gave; he’s been carrying it these days," Chen Shufen pressed down on my red envelope to keep others from seeing and getting jealous.

With my head bowed, I said sheepishly, "It’s not certain whether it’s because of the sachet, maybe the boss just has a strong constitution."

"Speaking of this matter, it’s quite strange," Chen Shufen pulled me over to sit side by side with her on a long bench, "The chest X-ray from three days ago actually still showed a shadow; today’s repeat X-ray is the one without it. The hospital was actually requiring a follow-up, but you know what your boss is like—always only sharing the good news."

I lifted my head slightly and smiled at her, "The boss is a good man, and he’s bound to turn bad luck into good; a follow-up will definitely bring good news as well."

"If the news is still good, maybe it has something to do with your sachet, and even if it doesn’t, considering your kindness, an extra one hundred yuan isn’t too much," Chen Shufen said to me with a smile, "Yuanyuan, where on earth did such a good girl like you come from? So kind-hearted and so hardworking, I’m getting fonder of you by the day. Do you have a partner yet?"
