You Are My Only Sunshine-Chapter 1536: Clinging to Life

"That old witch really hid it well, actually managed to keep it from everyone. None of us knew she had a son, and she’s been keeping him here for so many years. What’s her son’s name, and how’s his health?"

"Wei Zhongchen." Mo Jun wrote down the name on paper, "I took a preliminary look at his condition, you could say it’s... barely hanging on." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The term "barely hanging on" has a somewhat derogatory connotation, but really, there’s no better way to describe Wei Zhongchen’s situation.

His body is utterly wrecked. Mo Jun had never seen such poor health before, it’s as if he could die at any moment.

If it weren’t for the expensive medicines and the constant care of doctors, he would have been dead already.

In a word, Wei Zhongchen is like a crystal ball on the tip of a needle, a mere breeze would shatter it.

Yan Zhufei couldn’t help but sneer, "Is this karma? The old witch didn’t treat other people’s children as human beings, and now her child has ended up like this."

"It must be karma," Yun Long nodded in agreement.

But more than that, Yan Zhufei was concerned about something else. She asked Mo Jun, "So can you cure Wei Zhongchen? Just don’t cure him, let the old witch suffer losing her son!"

It would be best if she follows him in pain as well.

Mo Jun shook her head and said, "If nothing else, even if I risk my life, I can’t cure him. His body probably won’t get better in this lifetime, how long he lives depends entirely on his luck."

"This can’t be let known to the old witch!"

Mo Jun nodded with a smile, "I understand, I won’t provoke her. You all shouldn’t provoke her either, she seems to be very obsessive about this, her emotions could become extremely fragile."

"Really?" Yan Zhufei looked pensive, she seemed to have thought of something and smirked triumphantly.

Haha, not provoking her now, but maybe later.

Thinking of the old witch suffering brought her immense joy.

Mo Jun also called Hao Yansen and told him everything. Hao Yansen told her he was ready, she didn’t need to take risks there, he could take her away anytime.

"The evidence isn’t complete, right?" Mo Jun asked him.

"Not yet, but it should be soon."

"Then I’ll wait a bit longer, once you find it, I won’t need to continue here."

"You have no reason to stay there, it’s very unsafe," Hao Yansen said in a deep voice.

Mo Jun understood, but if she left now, the old lady Wei would definitely do something to threaten her. That wasn’t the point, the point was that Mo Jun suddenly became interested in Wei Zhongchen’s condition.

His situation was somewhat similar to Little Ping’an’s.

Little Ping’an had been in poor health since birth too. Although Mo Jun carefully took care of him, making him look much healthier, if she wasn’t careful, he would fall ill.

So she wanted to study Wei Zhongchen’s case and see if she could gain any insights.

Moreover, she had boldly experimented with some medicines, but had never dared to use them on Little Ping’an, perhaps... she could try them on Wei Zhongchen.

Mo Jun shared her idea with Hao Yansen, who naturally had no reason to stop her.

Little Ping’an was her child, she wouldn’t let go of this opportunity lightly.

Mo Jun was actively conducting research, and the old lady Wei, seeing her so eager, was very pleased. It seemed she really thought there was hope, as she came to inspect more than ten times a day.

Watching her so hopeful, Mo Jun felt that in the end, she would be bitterly disappointed.

There truly was no way for her to cure Wei Zhongchen’s body.
