Five years without pregnancy means you're too weak; I remarried a powerful man and had triplets

The car sped along, the outside world ablaze with light. Shen Zhiyi held the box in her arms, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the satin surface.

Assistant Wang's driving skills were extremely steady. Although the speed was fast, there was not a single bump. He left the hustle and bustle of the city behind.

Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of a hotel in the clouds.

Shen Zhiyi was slightly taken aback and looked at Assistant Wang with a questioning look in her eyes.

Assistant Wang scratched his head somewhat awkwardly: "Ms. Shen, the location is a bit abrupt, but I guarantee with my integrity that I have absolutely no intention of disrespecting you in the slightest."

Shen Zhiyi pondered for a moment.

Indeed, someone like Lu Zichuan, with his high position and great power, and his clean reputation, has countless people in the entire circle who want to curry favor with him. Why would he need to resort to such despicable means?

She nodded and followed Assistant Wang into the elevator.

The elevator goes directly to the top floor.

This entire floor seems to belong to only one presidential suite, making it extremely private.

Assistant Wang swipes open the heavy door and leads her through the extremely luxurious living room, stopping in front of a carved wooden door.

He raised his hand and tapped it three times lightly.

A very low, weak, and indistinct voice came from inside the door, as if squeezed out from the chest: "Come in."

A strange feeling flashed through Shen Zhiyi's mind.

In my memory, Lu Zichuan's voice had never sounded so... weak.

The door opened, and a wave of steam rushed out, carrying the cool scent of cedar, but it couldn't mask the unusual heat that permeated the air.

Assistant Wang strode forward, his voice urgent: "Mr. Lu, Miss Shen has arrived!"

Before he finished speaking, he pulled Shen Zhiyi inside.

Before Shen Zhiyi could react, she saw that in the huge bathroom, which was filled with steam, Lu Zichuan was reclining in the central jacuzzi, which was comparable to a small swimming pool.

He was completely naked, his dark hair clinging wetly to his forehead, water droplets rolling down his sculpted jawline, sliding over his sharp collarbone, and disappearing into the water.

Her usually aloof and untouched face was now flushed with a breathtaking crimson, more vibrant and intense than when she was drunk.

Fine beads of sweat seeped out, mingling with the rising steam, and slowly slid down his firm chest.

He seemed to be enduring something with great effort, his long eyebrows furrowed, and his usually indifferent and aloof eyes were half-closed, with an unnatural red tinge at the corners, looking over in a daze, his focus unfocused, as if through a layer of fog.

Two seconds later, he seemed to recognize her, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

The long, slender arm that had been casually draped over the smooth pool wall was suddenly pulled back into the water, creating a splashing sound.

He struggled to prop himself up, water trickling down his well-defined waist and abdomen. His movements carried a sickly yet undeniable strength and pride. Even though he was burning up, his back remained straight, and the noble air ingrained in his bones was undiminished.

"Who told you... to bring her here?"

He spoke, his voice terribly hoarse, as if it had been sanded, the last syllable trembling slightly as if something was being forced down, yet each word remained clear, carrying an unquestionable tone of command.

The confusion in his eyes was quickly replaced by a coldness that was both offensive and forced, though this coldness seemed particularly sensual and fragile because of his current situation.

Assistant Wang jumped in fright when he looked at her: "Mr. Lu, didn't you say you were going to see Miss Shen...?"

A muffled splashing sound came from the water. Lu Zichuan raised his hand and slammed his well-defined fist into the water, creating a wave that was half a person high. Water droplets rolled down his taut forearm, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged like a winding green snake.

"I meant... to see Dr. Shen."

He forced out those words through gritted teeth. The effects of the medicine made his temples throb, his brows furrowed even more, and a faint blush crept onto the tips of his ears, which was quickly covered by the blush on his face.

Assistant Wang's mouth was agape in an "O" shape. It wasn't his fault; President Lu was practically fainting, and his voice was frighteningly soft. He was almost never around women, and the person he had been in the most contact with recently was Shen Zhiyi. He subconsciously assumed that President Lu was looking for Shen Zhiyi.

Although he was also wondering why President Lu was drugged at the banquet and was looking for Shen Zhiyi.

However, this thought vanished in an instant. He simply assumed that President Lu, who hadn't tasted meat in a century, was about to do so, and without a second thought, he brought Shen Zhiyi along...

Seeing his reaction, Lu Zichuan knew he had misheard. He reached out and rubbed his temples. He stopped looking at Assistant Wang and fixed his gaze back on Shen Zhiyi, his eyes so deep they were frightening, as if he wanted to suck her in.

His Adam's apple bobbed violently, as if he were swallowing some surging pain or desire. His thin lips pressed into a cold, hard line, and he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, carrying a dangerous air of near-out-of-control:

"go out."

Although Shen Zhiyi didn't know what was going on, she could tell from Lu Zichuan's state that something was wrong with him. And since Assistant Wang had brought the wrong person, she thought that the other party had helped her before, and it would probably be too late to find someone else now. She gritted her teeth and stepped forward, saying, "President Lu, perhaps I can help you."

Lu Zichuan blinked, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he had heard something unbelievable: "You...help me?"

Something flashed in those extremely pale eyes, so quickly that Shen Zhiyi couldn't catch it. She said, "My best friend is a doctor. When I was in college, I would go to her school to audit classes. Judging from Mr. Lu's current condition, I guess you must have been drugged. Coincidentally, I learned about this in their class once."

Back then, Tan Gui messaged her, saying that she would definitely be interested in the content of this class. Shen Zhiyi happened to have no classes that day, so she went to listen in.

When I was young, I was curious about things like this, and once I heard about them, I kept them in my mind.

"Given that Mr. Lu hasn't completely lost his mind yet, I can deduce that the other party didn't administer a large dose of medication to you. Therefore, you only need to receive some furosemide to accelerate your body's metabolism. However, this medication can cause electrolyte imbalance, so it needs to be administered in conjunction with potassium chloride injection."

Assistant Wang was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and waved his hand, sweat dripping from his forehead: "Ms. Shen, I'm sorry, our CEO Lu's health is very precious, I can't take the risk. I'll take you home first, then go and fetch Dr. Shen immediately..."

"Too late."

Shen Zhiyi interrupted him, her gaze sweeping over Lu Zichuan's bulging veins and furrowed brows.

"Look at his hands, the veins are bursting. If we wait another half hour, his kidneys will be under too much strain. I'm absolutely right. If you don't believe me, I'll call my best friend right now, and she can connect you with your attending physician."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Zichuan had already raised his hand.

The slender middle and ring fingers swayed gently in mid-air, the movement slow yet carrying an undeniable pressure, even causing the water vapor to freeze for a moment.

Shen Zhiyi's heart sank. She thought he didn't believe her and was even prepared to be kicked out, but then she saw him raise his eyes. His extremely pale eyes locked onto her face. A fleeting smile flashed across his face, so quick that it was impossible to catch, before it was overwhelmed by the surging effects of the drug.

His Adam's apple bobbed violently, as if he were swallowing some surging pain and heat. His thin lips pressed into a cold, hard line, and he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, the hoarse sound trailing off somewhat:

"Assistant Wang, go get the medicine."

Assistant Wang paused for a moment, about to speak, when he added, his gaze refocusing on Shen Zhiyi, his eyes so deep they seemed to draw you in, carrying an indescribable meaning:

"You, stay here. Lose to me."
