After the divorce, my ex-husband and son lined up to pursue me.

Chapter 54 Revealing the True Face

Song Nanqi said that Jiangxia was about to die, but would live for a short time.

Sato proved with facts that not only was Jiang Xia's surgery successful, but he also recovered his health.

Who is spreading alarmist rumors?

Whom should we believe?
Ruan Muhuai took a deep breath, forcing his brain to work calmly, and after a moment he spoke: "Vice Dean Sato, as far as I know, there are currently no effective drugs or methods to completely cure cancer, right?"

Aside from benign cases, the early and middle stages are at least manageable.

Especially for cancer that has progressed to an advanced stage, what effective treatment is there? It's just a matter of struggling against death and trying to prolong life as much as possible while in pain.

Sato smiled and leaned against the desk. "That's right, what I said earlier was a bit one-sided and I didn't explain it clearly. It's like this..."

"Cancer has always been one of the difficult problems that mankind has been trying to overcome. Now, science and medicine are developing rapidly, and research teams in various countries are working hard to find solutions. The targeted drug that I used on your wife has just passed clinical trials and has not yet been fully launched on the market. Its effects are indeed amazing, but other treatments are needed to cure it."

As he spoke, Sato went around to his desk, turned on his computer, and pulled up relevant papers on targeted agents, clinical test data, and a detailed introduction to another nano-micromachine.

He turned the screen to Ruan Muhuai and said, "First, we use a targeted agent to block all cancer cells, which can also be understood as 'starving' the cancer cells and concentrating them in the remaining tumor site, so that they no longer spread and the condition is stabilized and no longer deteriorates. Then, we implant this miniature machine to eradicate the tumor site and then remove it surgically."

These theories and clinical trials are all supported by a wealth of data, which Sato explained in great detail, speaking fluently and eloquently.

Even so, Ruan Muhuai remained skeptical, but did not show it too much.

"I see... That's great."

He feigned a calm demeanor, expressed his sincere gratitude to Sato, and then copied and saved some papers and related data, saying that he would take them back and explain them to Jiang Xia in detail after her delirium subsided.

Sato naturally didn't object, and smiled as he talked a lot more until he saw Ruan Muhuai off. Only then did he feel relieved and wipe the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

It's really not easy to fool him.

He quickly dialed Xin Rou's number on his phone: "Xiao Rou, I've done everything I can to help you, but whether you can make him completely believe in me depends on you."

"I understand, thank you Uncle Sato."

Xin Rou had just reached the hospital building when she hung up the phone. She looked up at the wards upstairs, her narrowed eyes revealing a sense of unease.

Jiangxia is about to die.

Even if we struggle, it will only last for a year or two.

This was originally a good thing for her. Even if Ruan Muhuai found out, it wouldn't cause any problems. After all, there's no point in arguing with a dead person.

but……

Jiangxia occupied Ruan Muhuai for seven years!

She bore him a child and became his first wife!

These should have all belonged to Xin Rou, but Jiang Xia stole them away!
Xin Rou couldn't swallow this insult. Even if she was Ruan Mu Huai's ideal woman, she couldn't compare to a dead, cherished memory. Especially since this woman had given him a son. Every year on the anniversary of Jiang Xia's death, every time Ruan Mu Huai saw Ruan Yuan Chao… even though Xin Rou tried to kill the little brat, she still couldn't change or erase the weight that mother and son held in Ruan Mu Huai's heart!
Even the smallest amount was intolerable to Xin Rou.

Love is inherently selfish. Everyone has to look out for themselves. Xin Rou didn't think she had done anything wrong, nor was she being extreme. She just wanted Jiang Xia to become completely different from Ruan Mu Huai in their final days, turning the past seven years into the most disgusting and hateful memories that they both wished to erase!

She wanted to make the two of them break up on bad terms, to make Jiang Xia, filled with all the pain and regret, look like a stray dog ​​or a sewer rat, watching her and Ruan Muhuai happily walk into marriage, only to have her body lying dead in the street, dying with resentment!

Xin Rou raised her eyebrows slightly, a venomous smile curving her lips.

Ruan Muhuai, who was completely unaware of this, did not believe Sato's words at all. As soon as he left the office, he sent all the copied materials to Tao He.

I dialed the number again.

"Investigate what I sent you. If it's true, find the person in charge and give me their contact information."

Ruan Muhuai's voice was low and suppressed as he slowly avoided the elevator, went around into the stairwell and went straight downstairs. "Also, summarize Jiang Xia's medical records and contact more hospitals in Haicheng and City A. I need to find out if there is any hope of curing her condition."

Top-tier hospitals are located all over the country, but the best places to treat neurological diseases are still Haicheng and City A.

Tao He knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately said, "I understand. Don't worry, Mr. Ruan, I'll contact you as soon as I have any news."

Ruan Muhuai hummed in agreement and hung up the phone. He then went to the intensive care unit. Today, Jiang Xia had been transferred to a regular ward, where the nurses were still performing final checks and removing the tubes.

He didn't rush in; instead, he called Yan Guozhong again.

Ruan Muhuai had already told Yan Guozhong about Jiang Xia's car accident. He was just relaying the news about Jiang Xia's recovery and also helping her get some sick leave.

Jiang Xia returned to the research institute and joined the project team again, this time responsible for the Cortex-7. Ruan Muhuai neither approved nor opposed this.

His disapproval stems from the fact that he has long forgotten what Jiang Xia originally did.

Seven years of living together had smoothed everything out, and he had long held the preconceived notion that Jiang Xia was an unassuming, gentle woman, the perfect wife and mother to stay at home.

Research scholar, senior researcher at the research institute—Ruan Muhuai never associated these identities with Jiang Xia at all.

He didn't object because... he had personally witnessed the data Jiang Xia had written, and the car accident had exposed her condition.

No one will argue with a patient.

If her illness can truly be cured, then she can do whatever she wants.

After the phone call was finished, the nurse also finished her work and pushed Jiang Xia out on a gurney.

"It hurts so much..." She was still not used to having so many tubes suddenly removed, and shyly curled up in the blanket, glancing at Ruan Muhuai with a embarrassed expression, and subconsciously reached out her hand to him: "It hurts so much..."

That soft, sweet tone was practically like a child's coquettish plea...

Ruan Muhuai's Adam's apple bobbed, his breath caught in his throat for a moment, and he involuntarily grasped the hand she offered: "What should we do if it hurts? Let me hug you?"
