My Brilliant CEO Wife

"Don't be impulsive. With Huaxia's five thousand years of history, if there's something like the Heart-devouring Gu, there must be an antidote. In those hidden sects, there might be an antidote, but those sects rarely communicate with the outside world, and it's very hard to find them!" Cold Face frowned slightly and comforted Yun Hao, then continued talking.

"I'm going to find Tang Rou; she definitely has news about those sects!" Yun Hao left a sentence behind and then turned around to leave!

Watching Yun Hao's departing back, Cold Face shook his head, looked at the heart just taken from Sun Wuji's body in his hand, and a hint of gloom appeared deep in his eyes!

"Husband, you're finally back. Is your injury a bit better?" Seeing Yun Hao come in through the door, Chu Yan hurriedly approached, asking with concern.

"Wife, I'm fine. Why aren't you asleep yet? Go to sleep, otherwise you'll get bags under your eyes, and then you won't be beautiful!" Yun Hao didn't expect Chu Yan to still be awake at this hour, squeezing out a smile as he looked at her!

"No, I want to wait to sleep with you. After I fainted and woke up, I was so scared, so scared, realizing how close I was to death. I never want to leave you again!" Chu Yan, rarely acting coy, hugged Yun Hao's waist with both hands, her entire face buried in his chest!

"Don't worry, wife. I won't let you leave me, definitely not. I'll first put you to sleep, then I'll go downstairs to discuss something with Tang Rou." Yun Hao smiled and picked up Chu Yan, gently laying her on the bed after returning to the room, and soothing her like a child until she safely fell asleep, before going downstairs once more.

"Has Sun Wuji's Lifebound Gu in your body been removed?" When Yun Hao came down, Tang Rou was drinking alone on the sofa and asked softly upon seeing him.

"I don't know either; it should be removed!" Yun Hao had pondered this question before, and after waking up, Cold Face hadn't said anything, and he himself hadn't felt any discomfort, so it should have been removed!

"By the way, I want to ask you for help. Can you tell me the locations of a few hidden sects? I heard they might have a way to relieve the Heart-devouring Gu on little Yan's body, and I want to visit them to beg for the medicine!" Yun Hao moved closer to Tang Rou and said earnestly.

"Yan sister's Heart-devouring Gu hasn't been relieved? I just saw she didn't seem abnormal, in terms of complexion or physical condition, she didn't appear different from before!" Tang Rou looked at Yun Hao in shock, questioning in her mind.

"No, it hasn't been relieved. Cold Face helped temporarily suppress the black Gu lines, but in seven days, all hidden black Gu lines will explode fully once again, claiming Chu Yan's life. So, I need to seek medicine from those hidden sects. Cold Face said they have existed for dozens or even hundreds of years, perhaps even longer, and surely have some detoxification methods!"

Yun Hao also shook his head bitterly, revealing Chu Yan's true situation to Tang Rou because, to him, she wasn't an outsider and had helped him a lot!

"Is there only seven days of life left? Wait for me a moment; I'll go back now to check it for you!" Tang Rou was hearing this for the first time, the shock in her heart being truly indescribable, and she liked Chu Yan very much because Chu Yan was so kind, treating her like a sister!

So, Tang Rou didn't care about any formalities, and after putting down her wine glass, she hurriedly left the villa!

Yun Hao rubbed his temples and also left the villa, going to Cold Face's place!

And right after Tang Rou and Yun Hao left, at the dark corner of the second floor, Chu Yan's figure appeared. But now, Chu Yan looked quite terrible; her originally delicate face was filled with sadness and loneliness, accompanied by disbelief and unwillingness!

Indeed, hearing that one only has seven days to live, who wouldn't be terribly distraught? Chu Yan not collapsing is already considered good!

"I'm only twenty-two years old, why has my life suddenly come to an end? Why? Why? I still have a husband who loves me, and I want to have a baby with him, too. I have so many things that I haven't done yet!" Chu Yan, as if all her bones had been pulled out, leaned against the wall and collapsed to the corner, her face unknowingly covered in tears!

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Yan stood up alone in loneliness and then returned to the room to lie on the bed!

It turned out that when Yun Hao soothed her to sleep earlier, she wasn't genuinely asleep but pretended to be asleep. Due to a woman's curiosity, she wanted to hear what Yun Hao intended to discuss with Tang Rou, but unexpectedly overheard such a cruel truth!

And it was quite a coincidence; in usual times, whether Yun Hao or Tang Rou would definitely notice if Chu Yan were upstairs eavesdropping, but today, Yun Hao was really out of state, and Tang Rou's attention was entirely devoted to the fact that Chu Yan only has seven days to live due to Yun Hao's words!

These two points indirectly caused Chu Yan to overhear everything about the truth, even though it was so cruel to her!

At breakfast the next morning, Chu Yan's face was full of smiles, as if she had completely forgotten what she heard last night!

"Wife, after breakfast, you won't go to the company; stay home and rest for a few days!"

"Then will you accompany me traveling outside, okay?" Chu Yan looked at Yun Hao with a smile; her naturally beautiful big eyes became crescent-shaped with joy, extremely cute!

"I might have to go out to handle some things today; how about when I come back?" Yun Hao thought for a moment and said. Last night, Tang Rou had already told him the locations of several hidden sects, and he planned to visit today!

"Humph, you say you love me and won't even accompany me traveling! If you really don't have time, I can come with you when you do your errands; I won't disturb you, right?" Chu Yan pretended to be angry, pouting and ignoring Yun Hao!

"How could I dare refuse? I'm just afraid you'd be too tired. Then today, my dear wife, why don't you accompany me out! Incidentally, the place I'm going to is a big mountain; surely its scenery won't be too shabby!" After pondering a bit, Yun Hao had to agree, merely planning to avoid Chu Yan when discussing matters with the others!

"Now that's sensible; here's your reward!" Chu Yan immediately beamed, putting the entire peeled egg she was holding into Yun Hao's mouth!
