Ye Wan talked with Jin Lan for over an hour. She meticulously inquired about every detail concerning Gu Yunting's poisoning, aiming to have a clear understanding. When Jin Lan told her that Gu Yunting might have less than a month left to live, her scalp tingled. It was no wonder he had put everything aside to bring her to this serene place for a vacation.
So that was the reason!
Ye Wan was also terribly panicked. She asked, "Is the news you received that the antidote is in Country C?"
"Yes, the news I've received so far is precisely that! I'm sorry, that Jing Xiu and I were so useless!" Jin Lan's voice almost choked as he said this.
"It's not your fault, Jin Lan. I will find the antidote!" Ye Wan murmured to herself. She was determined to find the antidote for Gu Yunting. If she couldn't, she would leave this world with him.
Although she felt sorry for the baby, if the parents were gone, the baby would only suffer in this world. It would be better for her to take the baby and leave with him.
"Ye Wan!"
"Don't say anything else, Brother Jin Lan. Thank you." Ye Wan sincerely thanked him, grateful for his care over the years. Without him, she might not have survived this long, yet she felt she had never formally thanked him.
Ye Wan knew her life had been incredibly bitter, but she also knew she had met many kind people, like Jin Lan, Sun Ma, Jiang Yan, Jiang Mi... and Gu Yunting. They had brought color back into her life and made her feel rare happiness!
"Ye Wan, you are truly... so lovely. Little one, you must be well." Jin Lan's voice was tinged with emotion.
"I understand, Brother Jin Lan." Ye Wan smiled, though tears streamed down her face.
This night was destined to be sleepless. After returning to bed, she nestled into Gu Yunting's embrace, found a comfortable position, and closed her eyes, but her heart could not find peace.
The next day, when Gu Yunting woke up, Ye Wan was still asleep. He was unaware of what had happened the previous night. Fearing he might wake her, he carefully withdrew his arm, kissed her forehead affectionately, and then got up to wash and prepare breakfast downstairs.
After Gu Yunting left, Ye Wan's eyes immediately opened. She picked up her phone and sent a message to Qi Fan. Having worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for many years, Qi Fan would surely have a good understanding of matters related to Country C.
Knowing only that the antidote was in Country C was too broad. She needed to narrow down the search to find the antidote as quickly as possible.
Qi Fan was very quick and sent all the information Ye Wan needed. She sent everything, whether it was supposed to be sent or not, disregarding confidentiality. This was because she trusted Ye Wan's character and knew she would not do anything to harm national interests.
Ye Wan rapidly scanned the documents Qi Fan had sent until Gu Yunting came upstairs to call her for breakfast. She quickly turned off her phone and put it aside.
Seeing that she was awake, Gu Yunting walked over with a smile, picked her up, and kissed her repeatedly, as if he couldn't get enough. Ye Wan let him kiss her. They doted on each other in bed for another ten minutes before Gu Yunting carried her off the bed and took her to wash up.
Ye Wan also let him carry her. She knew their time together was limited. She had already made up her mind to personally travel to Country C to find the antidote for him.
Gu Yunting was exceptionally attentive to Ye Wan now, personally wringing out a hot towel to help her wash her face. After washing her face, he looked at her fair and tender cheeks, her beautiful features, and especially her eyes, which were exceptionally lovely, as if a galaxy resided within them.
