Chapter 951: Chapter 955: Huo Wei’s Love (13)
Based on Su Li’s one-sided words, making Zheng Kong doubt his beloved wife was indeed quite difficult.
But... just when Zheng Kong wanted to say something ridiculous, he felt the abundant life force in his body and fell silent.
The torment of cancer was too unbearable. Although he looked normal on the surface, apart from being emaciated and pale, only he knew that he was in pain every moment, a deep bone-penetrating pain.
In the middle of the night, he often vomited blood in large mouthfuls.
But he hid all this from Xu Tiantian; she was already suffering enough. If not for the three lovely children between them, he would worry whether his wife could bear it after he was gone.
So the disappearance of pain was so wonderful that it inevitably affected him by Su Li’s words.
But soon, Zheng Kong felt annoyed and embarrassed for having doubted his beloved wife.
If the only color in his gray life was a lie, then what was the meaning of his life?
Zheng Kong calmed his heart and smiled at Xu Tiantian, "Don’t worry, I will definitely not leave you and the three children."
Xu Tiantian was extremely excited, stood up abruptly, and rushed outside, "I’ll go ask Director Zhang about your condition."
"Come out, you can go now."
Su Li leisurely walked out of the bathroom, not caring a bit about Zheng Kong’s bad attitude, softly enticing, "Why don’t you follow and have a look."
When Su Li appeared, she could see that Zheng Kong was not really sick, but was suffering from rapid organ failure due to poisoning.
Now that Su Li was here, he wouldn’t have to die.
It’s just that the other actors didn’t know this. In their eyes, Zheng Kong’s illness had him struggling to even get out of bed, and the countdown to his life was within days.
Zheng Kong wanted to refuse, but his body honestly took action, getting out of bed and walking towards the door.
The corridor was empty, and he didn’t know where the security personnel he hired at great cost had gone.
Passing through the nurses’ station, there was no one inside.
As a property under his name, he naturally understood this hospital. For a private hospital set up for nobles, this situation was absolutely impossible.
It felt like the kind of laziness before getting off work, not even bothering with superficial efforts, just wanting to finish quickly.
Zheng Kong’s dark eyes began to turn profound, swirling with various emotions.
Perhaps even he didn’t realize it, but subconsciously, he might have started to believe the strange woman’s words to him.
Zheng Kong walked unimpeded to the chief doctor’s office. Near the door, he instinctively lightened his steps.
The office door wasn’t tightly closed; without pushing it open, he could hear a familiar voice inside.
Xu Tiantian’s voice was still so soft and enticing, a voice he missed terribly, but now the words coming out were like venom, innocuous yet corroding his heart with a thousand wounds.
"Director Zhang, didn’t you say Zheng Kong’s days were within these few days?"
"That’s right, we’ll be able to leave here soon. Life here is fresh, but over time, it’s not as interesting as interstellar. Once Zheng Kong dies, we can all leave here. By then, I wonder if you’ll be interested in going on a date with me?" Director Zhang said quite seriously, but his words were dissonant and teasing, igniting Zheng Kong’s anger from just outside the door.
But soon he picked out the key words, "leave," "interstellar."
This suddenly made his face turn pale, his whole body shaky and unstable.
The false mask had already been torn open a little.
"You have to stay strong, or you won’t learn more of the interesting truths."
Su Li suddenly appeared behind Zheng Kong, supporting him at a critical moment, steadying his shaky body and calming his almost broken spirit.
With his head down, Su Li couldn’t see his facial expression, but it definitely wasn’t pleasant.
Su Li smiled, stepped back, and silently enjoyed this dramatic scene.
Xu Tiantian had no mind to say anything pointless with Director Zhang; her sharp mind was preoccupied with Zheng Kong’s unusual behavior, and she directly said, "Zheng Kong said his body is getting much better."
Director Zhang said with a half-smile, "You put the Medicine Powder in his water cup personally; what are you worried about?"
"According to the script, he will die on his thirtieth birthday. You haven’t lost yourself and truly immersed in the role over these years, have you?"
Director Zhang had heard cases where some actors spent too much time with the protagonist, lost themselves, and couldn’t distinguish themselves from their roles anymore.
His suspicious gaze swept over Xu Tiantian’s face, irritating her.
"But, I think it’s true. Zheng Kong never lies to me, and he was very unusual today."
Xu Tiantian still couldn’t put it down, saying, "Check Zheng Kong again later. We’re about to finish; I don’t want anything to go wrong."
"Alright, you women..."
Xu Tiantian moved swiftly, bringing Director Zhang straight to the hospital bed.
After the previous emotional turmoil, the male protagonist didn’t let down, Zheng Kong could still remain calm.
Seeing Director Zhang, he also revealed a faint smile, rushing to say, "Director, I feel my body is beginning to recover."
Due to his character, Director Zhang couldn’t refute, but the indifference and ridicule in his eyes, fleeting though they were, were still caught by Zheng Kong.
Director Zhang drew blood from Zheng Kong, took his blood pressure, and conducted some physical checks.
The results seemed to come out quickly; Director Zhang’s face turned iron-blue, and he directly called Xu Tiantian away.
There was no need to think about what they would talk about.
After entering, Xu Tiantian’s face showed no abnormality, coaxing Zheng Kong into doing another comprehensive check-up.
Healthy, very healthy....
This result was not something Xu Tiantian and Director Zhang were happy to see.
They secretly poisoned Zheng Kong but dared not kill him in front of the interstellar audience.
Even the production team only allowed them to secretly act at the opportune moment near the end.
The interstellar audience would only think Zheng Kong had cancer, as the primitive gene of the home planet naturally had various defects, with a significant chance of having cancer.
And now, the male protagonist didn’t die, so the show had to continue, Xu Tiantian and Director Zhang’s faces could hardly look happy.
Zheng Kong: "Was the result bad?"
Xu Tiantian bit her lip and shook her head.
"But it seems you aren’t too happy, or are you surprised that I recovered?"
