Chapter 1390 - Public Opinion Pressure



The corridor outside the ward was silent, and the three men crossed the corridor and entered the van elevator, full of thoughts. Jiang Yu, whose marriage proposal had been interrupted, was furious inside. On several occasions, he tried to provoke Wei Lingnan and was stopped by Tan Ying calmly. Although Tan Ying did not know the real identity of Wei Lingnan, from the attitude of Li Lei and others towards him, he knew that it was definitely not good to mess with him.

He didn’t want anything to happen.

Wei Lingnan didn’t care about the two’s little movements at all, and his frozen expression made people unable to guess his emotions.

The elevator “dinged” on the first floor and the doors slowly opened.

“How much?” he asked suddenly.

Jiang Yu looked around puzzledly, only to find that Wei Lingnan was talking to him. “How much?” He frowned.

“It’s fine as long as I’m more rich and powerful than you, right?” Wei Lingnan did not explain and walked out of the elevator first.

His back was so cold and upright as he disappeared among the endless stream of people. For some reason, Jiang Yu felt an indescribable sense of crisis and pressure. “Ha, does he think it’s so easy to have money and authority?” Jiang Yu sneered as if talking to Wei Lingnan but also to comfort himself. “Even if he works hard from now on, he might not even be able to catch up to me in this lifetime.”

Could Yingluo wait a whole lifetime for him?

That was simply a fantasy story!

Tan Ying looked at the man’s back thoughtfully at the side and smelled the start of a storm.

Xia Yingluo woke up after a long sleep in the hospital bed. There was no one in the ward, and she could only hear the infusion bag hanging on the cold metal rack delivering drops to her. Her hearing was very good, and in the silence, she could hear the sound of the medicine dripping into the infusion tube, the small stream of water slowly flowing into her veins, and spreading along her limbs.

She carefully felt for a while and felt that the World Tree was still in her belly and had not been affected by her coma. Sure enough, it was right not to use energy for defense. The less energy she exhausted, the more likely the World Tree would survive.

It was the hope of a whole renaissance.

She raised her hand, looking at the dim golden-green leaf mark in her hand, and said softly, “Live on.”

Her heart had been hit by Wei Lingnan, and she was still in pain. She had been too careful and didn’t expect that man to be so cruel. In the battle on the Skatana Planet, they were familiar with each other’s energy and he was also her guardian, so even if she approached from behind, he would know it was her immediately and wouldn’t accidentally injure her. However, everything had changed.

She didn’t blame him. If she wanted to blame something, she should blame their fate.

She seriously considered whether she should really marry Jiang Yu and kill off Wei Lingnan’s desires. The man was more dangerous and disobedient than she imagined. After the marriage proposal at the fan meeting, she suddenly realized that she could no longer control him.

In fact, the moment he had broken into her palace in a bloody battle on the Skatana Planet, he had been out of control.

Her Queen’s authority was worthless in front of him.

It was entirely up to him whether to obey or not.

With heavy thoughts in mind, she pondered how she was going to spend the rest of her time on Earth smoothly. It was impossible to be with him, but she couldn’t let him interfere with her plan either. Her rate of healing was very slow, but the good news was that under the public relations of Tan Ying, the incident at the fan meeting evolved into “two outstanding men jealous over Ms. Xia Yingluo”. People talked wildly and publicized her charm. This increased her popularity a lot and was followed by an increase in energy and a clearer marking of the World Tree on her palm.

A week later, she was discharged.

Li Rui came to pick her up and complained endlessly. “Big missy, can’t you stop already? You can’t hold yourself back from causing trouble? The whole world is going upside down for you. These days, Dad and Li Shaohui’s guys are so busy, and Li Shaohui that inhuman guy even sneakily used me for strong labor! If I go on like this, when would I have the time to play with girls in a bar? When?”

Xia Yingluo knew his pattern and got on the car lazily. She grabbed a pillow and asked weakly, “Tell me, what happened this time?”

Li Rui looked at her absent-minded appearance and complained. “Are you even seriously concerned about your brother!”

“Tell me if you want to. Otherwise, forget about it,” she said, yawning.

Li Rui was speechless. When he stepped on the accelerator to start the vehicle, he resentfully said, “You’re ruthless! The Wei family’s company invented a new anti-cancer drug that’s effective against a variety of cancers. It was just announced a few days ago and the world is boiling. It was said that he’s the reincarnation of Hua Tuo and is a great benefactor! The United States and several countries have announced that this medicine has no side effects, and the cure rate is as high as 99%, which is a miracle! Now the news is covering him all over the world. They’re all focused on him. What singers, movie stars, celebrities, they can all stand aside!”

Xia Yingluo was a little surprised. She didn’t know what intention Wei Lingnan had for announcing the new anti-cancer drug at this time, but with the technology he had mastered, making this drug was just a piece of cake. But... “What does it matter to us? How come you and dad are so busy?”

Li Rui gritted his teeth. “The cost of this medicine is high and the output is very small. People all over the world are looking forward to reducing the cost and making it affordable for everyone. Wei Lingnan said that the method of reducing costs has been studied and breakthroughs have been made, but he has been disturbed by his feelings recently and can’t concentrate on drug research, so he doesn’t know when he will succeed in research and development.”

“Damn!” Even Xia Yingluo couldn’t help but swear.

Li Rui didn’t say anything, but she already understood Wei Lingnan’s intention—he was using the world to put pressure on her, in the hopes she would forgive him and accept him! Cancer was widespread around the world. Even if they didn’t have the illness themselves, many people had relatives and friends around them that were sick, and they were also worried that the disease would fall on them someday. Who wouldn’t look forward to early research on cheap and good-quality cures?

The pressure of billions of people, even if she was an alien queen, still weighed heavily on her!

“He’s looking for death!” Her voice was cold and murderous.

As soon as she spoke, she saw Li Rui take a large drift. She didn’t sit stably and almost bumped her head against the windshield. She glanced outside at the mess and saw a bunch of people rushing out from somewhere, all yelling and rushing towards their car.

Xia Yingluo had a good hearing and heard them shouting—

“This is the car! I recognize it! The car that took Xia Yingluo out of the hospital!”

“Xia Yingluo! Save the cancer patients! Marry Wei Lingnan!”
