The Time-Limited Love and Marriage-Chapter 526

"Moxi, everyone wants my treatment, not yours. What should we do about that?"

Fu Wangning looked troubled, but there was actually a sense of pride and provocation in her almond-shaped eyes.

It was as if she was telling Jiang Moxi: See, everyone chooses me, so my opinions and views are the right ones! The competition hasn’t even started yet, and you’ve already lost completely!

But Jiang Moxi’s expression was cold, with not even a ripple in her beautiful watery eyes.

She simply said, "Those who want to stay can stay; those who would rather go to your group can go. I don’t care."

Jiang Moxi’s excessive calmness and self-control made Fu Wangning feel as though she had landed a heavy punch on cotton.

So, following Jiang Moxi’s lead, she asked the group of eager patients, "Now, whoever wants to be in my group, stand behind me."

Fu Wangning wanted to see that not a single person would want such rubbish as her to treat them.

That way, the competition would end prematurely, and Jiang Moxi would also be out of Chinese Medicine College early, no longer a thorn in her eye.

Furthermore, the good reputation that Jiang Moxi had built up under the identity of designer X would be ruined in an instant.

By then, even if Jiang Moxi and Fu Youhan were in love, it would be difficult for her to marry into the Fu Family.

Just thinking about Jiang Moxi crying her heart out because she couldn’t marry into the Fu Family made Fu Wangning’s heart overjoyed.

And as her words fell, nearly all the patients gathered behind Fu Wangning.

Even Jiang Tairan, who was known as Jiang Moxi’s own grandfather, did not hesitate to stand with Fu Wangning.

Jiang Tairan, noticing Jiang Moxi giving him a cold glance, said directly, "Don’t blame Grandpa, Moxi. Grandpa just wants to get treated quickly now and can’t give up such a precious opportunity because of blood ties. After all, you only live once."

Jiang Moxi retorted with a wry smile, "This is your choice, just remember not to regret it."

"Absolutely not," Jiang Tairan said confidently.

Jiang Moxi said nothing more but turned her gaze to the only male patient in front of her.

The male patient was obviously in the late stages of his illness, unable to stand, and could only travel in a wheelchair.

Despite the relatively warm weather, he was wearing a woolen hat and a thick tweed coat.

His complexion was not just bad—it was the pallor of someone close to death.

While the other patients were scrambling to get effective treatment from Fu Wangning, he was half-closed his eyes, dozing off.

After observing him for a while, Jiang Moxi asked, "Do you want me to push you to Professor Fu’s side?"

Yes, Jiang Moxi also assumed that this man’s choice would be Fu Wangning too, but due to physical weakness, he simply couldn’t choose a side.

To Jiang Moxi’s surprise, the man barely opened his eyes to look at her and said, "It’s fine, it doesn’t matter who treats me. I’ve only got ten days or half a month left anyway."

The man’s lack of will to live struck Jiang Moxi as odd.

Later, Jiang Moxi learned from the information dug up by netizens that this man was named Hu Yedong, a previously well-known lyricist, handsome and somewhat wealthy.

Two years ago, Hu Yedong married a minor celebrity in the industry.

Hu Yedong was almost heartbreakingly generous to this minor celebrity, entrusting all his money to them, and even had the house and car registered solely in the minor celebrity’s name.

But six months ago, the news broke that the minor celebrity had cheated with another male artist in the industry.

Hu Yedong was infuriated, ready to take control of the financial power, only to find that the money and real estate had already been transferred away by the young starlet, leaving next to nothing.

Tragically, at this time, Hu Yedong was also diagnosed with cancer.

And the young starlet didn’t stop there; she went through with a divorce from Hu Yedong.

Hu Yedong was cheated both emotionally and financially, losing all his money and even his dignity, to the point where he couldn’t face his elderly parents and continuously refused treatment.

He was brought into the live-streaming event for a cancer treatment competition by a old friend who registered him without his knowledge, under the pretense of a check-up.

But the argument that had just taken place made it clear to Hu Yedong that this wasn’t just a check-up—it was actual treatment.

Hu Yedong didn’t want to live, hence he had no interest in going to Fu Wangning for treatment.

Seeing Hu Yedong’s listless demeanor, Jiang Moxi no longer pressured him.

Fu Wangning, however, was surprised to find that there was still a patient left with Jiang Moxi and said, with evident irritation:

"What am I supposed to do now? I have nine patients on my side and you only have one. That’s a bit unfair."

But this time, Jiang Moxi didn’t leave her much dignity, replying with a cold laugh, "This competition was never fair from the start. You’re not unaware of that. Why bother with small talk? Just treat it as you will."

Fu Wangning was extremely annoyed, feeling that Jiang Moxi was deliberately ridiculing her.

She was about to retort and put on an act of righteousness to drown Jiang Moxi in viewers’ spit in the live stream.

But before she could speak, Jiang Moxi added, "If you want to keep this competition going, stop playing tricks in front of me."

Those words forced Fu Wangning to swallow back the retort that had come to her lips.

Indeed, Fu Wangning still hoped the competition would go on until the end, preferably with a fatality.

By then, Jiang Moxi’s reputation would be ruined, and no amount of justification could clear her name.

So even though Fu Wangning was resentful, she had to bear the humiliation and definitely couldn’t give Jiang Moxi any excuse to call off the competition.

Therefore, under their leadership, Fu Wangning’s medical team was divided into nine people, each placed in separate rooms.

Hu Yedong, Jiang Moxi’s only patient, was also settled in.

Before all treatments began, all patients underwent a series of detailed examinations, after which Jiang Moxi and Fu Wangning began their respective treatments with medicine.

And the rooms of these patients were all equipped with live-streaming devices for a 24-hour uninterrupted broadcast, allowing viewers to keep watch.

However, the live stream that attracted the most attention was still Hu Yedong’s.

Almost everyone wanted to see if Hu Yedong, looking half-dead, had any chance of survival under Jiang Moxi’s care.

Upon reviewing Hu Yedong’s less-than-optimistic medical report, Jiang Moxi prescribed his treatment.

The young nurse quickly prepared Hu Yedong’s medicine, but Hu Yedong refused to take it: "Take it away, I don’t want to drink it."

"You can still be treated, but you need to cooperate," Jiang Moxi urged.

Yet Hu Yedong said, "What’s the point of living? Isn’t it just so people can laugh at me for being swindled by a woman out of everything?"

Usually, whenever Hu Yedong despaired like this, people would advise him to see the brighter side, not daring to pressure him further.

But Jiang Moxi didn’t take the usual approach, continuing to provoke Hu Yedong: "If you die, those people will laugh at you even more. You won’t only have been swindled out of everything by a woman, but now you’ll have lost your life too."
