89: try

And with things having developed to this point,

this so-called engagement banquet clearly couldn't continue.

But no matter what,

at least neither family had publicly announced anything.

Coupled with Chen Tianming's personal appearance here,

there was still room for maneuver.

...

Third floor.

Chen Tianming took Bai Muning and casually found a room.

He walked straight in.

The service staff here were not ordinary people either.

Naturally, there was no melodramatic plot of a service staff seeing an unfamiliar person go upstairs and making things difficult for no reason.

As soon as they entered the room,

Bai Muning asked nervously, “Tianming Ge, what exactly happened to my sister?”

Chen Tianming briefly explained.

He then continued, “You don't need to worry too much. Although her condition cannot be treated by a regular Hospital, as long as she cultivates ancient martial arts, allowing her internal energy to be full and her blood vitality to increase, it will naturally compensate for her innate deficiency.”

Bai Muning finally felt a little relieved.

She pressed one hand to her full chest,

and let out a long breath.

“That's good, that's good…”

Bai Muxue was her sister after all.

Seeing her faint,

it was impossible not to worry.

Having put her mind at ease,

Bai Muning then said with a complex expression, “Tianming Ge, you've really gone to too much trouble.”

“Originally, I just wanted to help my sister resolve her engagement, but I didn't expect so many things to happen…”

“I, I don't know how to repay you…”

Chen Tianming smiled upon hearing this.

He reached out and pinched the chin of the beauty in front of him!

His thumb pressed against Bai Muning's red lips.

“You should know how to repay me in your heart…”

Bai Muning's pretty face flushed!

She couldn't help but avert her gaze.

She whispered, “N-not now.”

“So, it's possible later?”

Chen Tianming fully utilized his reading comprehension skills

to interpret Bai Muning's words.

“I, I didn't mean that…” Bai Muning's face turned red.

Chen Tianming watched as Bai Muning's head practically buried itself into her chest.

He knew that this Female Lead, like Yan Yu,

belonged to the type who wasn't good with words.

So he didn't continue to tease her.

With a light chuckle,

he directly embraced Bai Muning's delicate body.

Like holding a plush toy,

his large hands casually played with her…

Not long after,

Chen Tianming suddenly looked towards the door.

He got up and casually released Bai Muning from his embrace.

Ten seconds later,

a knock sounded.

“The door isn't locked, come in!”

Click!

The room door was pushed open.

Bai Muxue slowly walked in from the corridor.

The first time she saw Chen Tianming standing opposite her, a smile on his lips,

even though it wasn't their first meeting,

Bai Muxue was still momentarily dazzled by his extremely handsome face!

However, when she shifted her gaze to Bai Muning beside him,

she couldn't help but be stunned!

Her sister looked as if she had a fever, her face flushed, her head lowered, breathing softly, one hand on her chest, half her body hidden behind Chen Tianming, clutching his sleeve, like a shy kitten.

Bai Muxue couldn't help but take another look at her sister.

“Has her social anxiety gotten worse?”

It was one thing to be shy around others,

but facing her own older sister,

was it necessary to be like this?

Was it because they hadn't seen each other for a long time,

and a sense of distance had formed?

Various thoughts flashed through her mind.

Chen Tianming, meanwhile, casually observed the woman in front of him.

He had previously focused his attention on the panel description,

and had overlooked her appearance.

He had to admit,

Bai Muxue and Bai Muning looked very similar.

Comparatively,

Bai Muxue was taller.

And there was a confidence in her eyes that Bai Muning lacked!

An elegant nobility exuded from her entire being!

This should be related to her having studied abroad

and being influenced by the local culture!

With every movement,

there was a sense of generosity.

A stark contrast to the humility and low-key nature of Alliance people.

Coupled with her already remarkable appearance,

she stood out in a crowd

like a luminous pearl in the night!

“As expected of a protagonist from a female-oriented novel, the difference compared to ordinary Female Leads is quite clear…”

Chen Tianming made a fair assessment in his heart.

Bai Muxue then spoke, “Chen Shao, do you really have a way to solve my problem?”

Bai Muxue's mood was very complex at this moment.

On one hand, her condition was indeed as Chen Tianming had described.

When she was at the Hospital previously,

she had also been examined.

And was told it was a very rare genetic hereditary disease.

However, at that time, the rate of organ decay was very slow.

She could still live for at least several decades.

Since there was no cure,

Bai Muxue had adopted a calm mindset.

At worst, she would live ten or eight years less than ordinary people…

But, just now at the banquet,

she found that her symptoms seemed to have significantly worsened!

Moreover, after waking up, she found that her cold body symptoms had disappeared.

Bai Muxue couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope for Chen Tianming.

On one hand, her rationality told her that

humanity's current understanding of genetic diseases

still placed them in a nearly untreatable state!

Chen Tianming's so-called martial arts treatment method,

to counteract organ decay,

was something she had never heard of before.

The probability of success probably wouldn't be very high.

However,

this was like a drowning person grasping at a straw.

Humanity's instinctive will to survive,

coupled with her trust in her sister,

still led her to Chen Tianming…

Chen Tianming looked at Bai Muxue's complex expression,

and could roughly guess what she was thinking.

However, he didn't explain, and simply said, “It can be treated.”

“However, I cannot guarantee whether it will be successful.”

Ultimately, this was just his conjecture; he could only say there was an eighty to ninety percent chance of success.

This was one point.

Another point was,

even if it failed, Chen Tianming wasn't worried at all about Bai Muxue dying.

As a Child of Destiny,

in the final plot,

Bai Muxue would definitely encounter something that could treat her illness.

It is well known that

certain so-called incurable diseases,

when placed upon a protagonist,

are merely matters that will be resolved sooner or later.

Knowing this,

Chen Tianming remained so calm.

Anyway, it was just a try.

Bai Muxue wouldn't actually die.

What did he have to worry about?

Of course, only he knew this.

Chen Tianming simply repeated what he had said before.

Bai Muxue's face turned pale upon hearing this!

She hadn't expected that she had so little time left!

However, after a moment's thought, it made sense.

In her perception,

her condition was indeed getting worse!

And her body was also becoming weaker!

Chen Tianming continued, “You can choose whether or not to try my method.”

Bai Muxue bit her lip and quickly made up her mind.

“I, I'm willing!”

If she tried,

she might live.

If she didn't try,

it would be a dead end anyway!
