That evening, Shi Mei had asked Shi Lingyan.
To her surprise, Shi Lingyan’s reaction was unexpected.
"Dancing?" Shi Lingyan looked up from his work and immediately saw the anticipation on Shi Mei’s face.
Shi Mei propped her chin on her hands and nodded, "Yes, yes, Grandma told Shi Mei to go dancing, it’s just that the place for dancing is a school, where I have to board, and I won’t be able to come home for a long, long time."
"Do you want to go?" Shi Lingyan asked as he looked down to organize his documents, aligning the corners of the papers with the edge of the table.
Shi Mei glanced casually and noticed that it seemed to be a health check report; her gaze deepened as she said, "I want to go."
"Then go," Shi Lingyan replied indifferently and then stood up, "It’s good to learn, to improve yourself, so you don’t just stay at home reading all that messy stuff."
He didn’t want her heart anymore?
Shi Mei watched Shi Lingyan’s retreating back feeling stunned but at the same time somewhat reluctant. She caught up with him and said, "So I’m really going, okay?"
"Mm," Shi Lingyan glanced at her, "What time is it?"
"It’s nine thirty and you’re not sleeping, go to your room."
Shi Mei felt even more puzzled in her heart.
This was nothing like what she had imagined.
To make it more convenient to harvest her heart, shouldn’t he be plotting to keep her close to him at all costs?
"If I go to learn dancing, it’s not in Yan City, I have to go to Imperial City!"
"Mm," Shi Lingyan replied vaguely and then tapped her head lightly, "So, you don’t want to go?"
Shi Mei puffed her cheeks, "Won’t you miss me?"
Shi Lingyan smiled, "No matter how much I miss you, there will come a day when you’ll grow up."
"So when I grow up, you won’t care about me anymore?"
"I will care," Shi Lingyan said somewhat helplessly, "I’ll find someone to go with you, to take care of your daily life."
Shi Mei paused, her emotions complex.
It was like Shi Lingyan really did want to get rid of her, but—nevermind not caring about her—was he not even going to care about Bai Yuejie anymore?
Shi Lingyan showed no intention of continuing the conversation and soon left her behind.
Shi Mei hurried to catch up but saw that Shi Lingyan had already entered the bathroom.
A strange feeling welled up in Shi Mei, and the health check report she had seen on the desk suddenly popped up in her mind again.
Returning to the study, Shi Mei picked up the health check report and surprisingly found that it was the result from Fei’er Private Clinic.
Even more surprisingly, her name was on it.
Shi Mei’s heart sank as she opened the contents and found a page circled in red.
The circled content was a bunch of data with one word heavily ringed several times.
Shi Mei couldn’t understand the data, but she understood the note beside it.
Shi Lingyan had circled the arterial blood vessels, and next to them, in bold and flowing writing, was written: Fatal Deviation.
Further down, another red figure stood out starkly: 39.89%.
Shi Mei stared at these figures for a long time, still not understanding what he meant.
She closed the health report book and then looked at the one beneath it.
It was also from Fei’er Private Clinic, but obviously much older, with even the cover design and layout being different.
It had Tang Wu’s name on it.
Shi Mei flipped through this health report, finding nothing abnormal in other sections, but on the page with the heart, there was another note: 91.82%.
