Chapter 42: Being Poisoned

“What nonsense!” Chen Kang laughed while scolding, “If I can really live that long, I might not even be able to walk.”
Chen Haichao and the others heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that Chen
Kang seemed to be in a better mood.
“Miss Leng, how is my father?” Chen Haichao looked at Ye Leng’an, grim-faced. “You can tell us the truth. We can accept it.”
As soon as he said this, everyone’s eyes immediately focused on Ye Leng’an.
There were only Chen Kang, Chen Haichao, his wife, his son, and Ye Leng’an in the living room.
“Actually, it’s not a big problem. It’s just that your heart is failing rapidly.” Since they wanted to know, Ye Leng’an didn’t hide anything. “When I saved you last time, I took your pulse. At that time, although your heart was slowly failing, it was still under control. However, recently, the situation had become much worse. If I hadn’t come today, you would’ve died of heart failure in less than a month. No one will be able to save you by then.”
Originally, she had planned to talk to Chen Kang privately, but since he felt that evervone Dresent was trustworthv, there was no harm in telling them on this occasion.
“What?” Chen Haichao turned pale with fright. Even his voice was trembling when he spoke. “You mean my father is…” Hopeless.
He couldn’t finish his last few words anywvay. In fact, he didn’t even want to believe this fact. His father looked very healthy, but now she said that his father was seriously ill.
“That’s impossible!” Chen Hanxi could not help but say, “Grandpa looks very well. Two days ago, he still wanted to go hiking!”
Everyone looked at Chen Kang. Indeed, he did not look like he was incurably ill. His face was rosy, his breathing steady. When he spoke, his voice was powerful. He looked like a healthy person.
For a moment, no one knew whether they should believe what Ye Leng’an said.
Chen Kang, on the other hand, looked very calm, but when he spoke, his voice wavered. “Leng’an, I believe you. Just tell me what is wrong with my body?”
No one knew his body better than him. Indeed, he had become much healthier these days. He even thought of going hiking two days ago. However, sometimes, his heart would beat wildly all of a sudden, and it was even a little difficult for him to breathe. But these only lasted for a very short period of time, so he did not care much about that.
Now, it seemed that these were all symptoms!
“He does look very healthy.” Ye Leng’an nodded, but the words she said the next second made everyone present tremble in fear. “The things you saw are real on the surface, but everything comes with a price. He’s a heart patient, but he suddenly became so healthy. It’s all because it’s overtaxing his health.” Her simple words sounded devastating.
“Then what about my father?” Chen Haichao asked worriedly what he most wanted to know, “Healer Ye, since you’ve already figured it out, do you have any way to save my father?”
Everyone present cast their hopeful gazes on Ye Leng’an.
Although Chen Kang looked very calm, the hope in his eyes was obvious when he looked at Ye Leng’an. After all, as long as a person was alive, he or she would not want to die.
“Of course!” Ye Leng’an nodded and said casually, “However, his physical condition did not change naturally. He was drugged. If we don’t solve the problem at the source, even if I help you recuperate now, it will still worsen in the future.’
“You mean, someone poisoned my father?” Li Yiqiu quickly said, “Are you sure?”
If someone really poisoned Chen Kang, it would be too terrifying. Especially after he had a heart attack, he rarely went out and spent most of his time at home. If someone really did that to him, then the person who poisoned him was very likely…
Thinking of this, Li Yiqiu shook her head, obviously unwilling to continue thinking. Because if she continued to think about it, things would get out of hand.
Obviously, everyone present also thought of that possibility.
Chen Kang’s face darkened, and his aura changed drastically.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire living room was strained. Under such low pressure, no one dared to speak first..
