Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 962: Chapter 962: If He Had Known Earlier, He Wouldn’t Have Let Go Easily

As if aware that his suggestion was abrupt, he smiled and said, ”Since we’re both here, it would feel like a wasted trip to leave now. Besides, I wanted to discuss Nuonuo’s condition with you. I do have some research on blood diseases, so consider it like you’ve met an expert on blood disease.”

Chi Enen also felt that it wouldn’t be right to leave as soon as she arrived. She pondered for a moment, then lifted her head with more natural brightness in her eyes and walked over to sit across from Xi Zelie, ”What is Mr. Xize drinking?”

”Mocha.”

”Then, I’ll have a Blue Mountain coffee.”

Xi Zelie courteously instructed the service staff, ”Prepare a cup of Blue Mountain.”

”Certainly,” the service staff immediately went to prepare it.

Soon, a steaming cup of coffee was placed in front of Chi Enen. She took a sip from her coffee and found a topic to broach, ”Mr. Xize, you said you wanted to talk about Nuonuo’s condition. Is there something wrong with her body?”

Her demeanor was composed and graceful, completely recovered from the previous awkwardness.

Xi Zelie’s gaze fell upon her bare face, pausing for a second before he began to speak, ”Nothing serious, I just wanted to let you know. Her condition is quite good. We’ve found the source of the viral mutation, and it won’t be long before we develop an effective medication to get it under control.”

”Really?” Chi Enen couldn’t hide her excitement.

Although she had not expected to meet Xi Zelie under such awkward circumstances, he did bring her good news, and it was about Nuonuo’s illness!

Her visit was worthwhile after all!

Her joy was evident on her face, her eyes shining with happiness, gleaming like beautiful gems.

Chi Enen’s eyes were naturally very attractive, even without makeup, they had a bright and lively quality that in the world of female celebrities was described as having spirited eyes. Her eyes were exactly that type - spirited, easily attracting people’s attention.

Xi Zelie found himself involuntarily drawn to those eyes, his focus landing on her pupils. Her bright and steady eyes conveyed a calming strength. With longer observation, one would perceive her inherent composed demeanor, which seemed related to the color of her pupils.

Her eyes were not purely black; on closer inspection, one could see a hint of tea color within the dark hue. While not especially prominent, that subtle difference made them distinct.

”Mr. Xize?” Chi Enen noticed his distraction and called out to him.

Xi Zelie abruptly refocused, his thin lips parting, ”Yes, truly. However, we can only identify medication that temporarily controls the pathological source in her cells from mutating; we can’t completely cure her genetic disease.”

”I’m sorry.”

Chi Enen hadn’t expected to cure Nuonuo’s genetic disease in one go. If genetic illnesses could be so easily cured, the Li family wouldn’t have struggled with a lack of female births. She was already very happy just to control this mutation.

”It’s okay, I’m aware of Nuonuo’s genetic disease. As long as she’s careful not to get injured, she will be fine. My main concern was her persistent fever. As long as her fever is under control, I’ll be relieved. Thank you, really, thank you.”

Xi Zelie, looking into her eyes, suppressed the bitterness in his heart and spoke in a hoarse voice, ”Between us, there’s no need to say thank you.”

He never knew that she was Miss Habsden. If he had known all this back in Capital City, he definitely wouldn’t have let go so easily!
