Chapter 75: Zhao Daxing is Hospitalized Again

After seeing off Wang Yanping and her group, Xiao Jiliang noticed that Su An seemed like a completely different person.

She stopped hitting people and causing trouble, bringing an unusual quiet to the house.

But in Su An's eyes, it wasn't like that.

Xiao Jiliang and Zhao Daxing had both settled down, making it hard for her to find a reason to start a fight.

Besides, Wang Yanping and Chen Shiyu had just left, and as they said, she had to give them some respect.

Xiao Jiliang, who was used to being in charge, quickly regained her authoritative demeanor and started assigning tasks to Su An.

She told Su An to cook, but Su An ended up using half a bottle of oil for the stir-fried cabbage.

When she asked Su An to wash the dishes, Su An broke three out of eight bowls.

Xiao Jiliang was so distressed that she rolled her eyes in exasperation.

After this series of mishaps, Xiao Jiliang indeed stopped letting Su An into the kitchen, suspecting that she was doing it on purpose, even though she had no evidence.

Su An, noticing the tension in Xiao Jiliang's jaw, knew that she was also holding back, and Su An was waiting for her to lose it.

Although Su An couldn't cook or wash dishes, she ate more and faster than anyone else. The Zhao family, consisting of two adults and three children, couldn't even keep up with Su An's appetite.

Xiao Jiliang, unwilling to keep feeding someone who didn't contribute, had Su An watch over the stove to boil medicine for Zhao Daxing.

While Xiao Jiliang went to the hospital to deliver food to Zhao Xiaoyu and her husband, Su An took three pills of the Black Chicken White Phoenix Pills (a traditional Chinese medicine for women's health) that Xiao Jiliang had hidden in the bedside drawer and threw them into Zhao Daxing's medicine.

The Black Chicken White Phoenix Pills are known for replenishing qi and blood, regulating menstruation, and treating gynecological issues—essentially, they are used for women's health.

Zhao Daxing was injured, so Su An thought it would be good to replenish his blood.

That night, Zhao Daxing felt extremely hot all over.

It was almost winter, and he usually slept under a quilt, but that night, he stripped off all his clothes and still felt hot. Not only was he hot, but he also felt an urge to be intimate with someone.

The next day, while Xiao Jiliang was out and Zhao Daxing was asleep, Su An took the new leather shoes, belt, and a set of newly made wedding bedding to Fuqing Street.

She also prepared the medicine for Zhao Daxing twice that day and gave him six more Black Chicken White Phoenix Pills.

Su An couldn't understand why Xiao Jiliang and Zhao Daxing trusted her so much.

Especially Zhao Daxing, who, while drinking the medicine she prepared, still glared at her with a calculating and hostile look.

Did he really think that a few words from Chen Shiyu and Wang Yanping could make her repent and become a new person?

Although she didn't dare to add arsenic or rat poison (both deadly substances) to the medicine, she had no problem feeding him Black Chicken White Phoenix Pills.

On the third day, Su An took a newly bought ceramic basin, a thermos, and a small coal stove from the house to Fuqing Street.

That night, Zhao Daxing finally realized something was wrong—his chest had swollen...

When he pressed on it, it felt slightly swollen and painful.

Zhao Daxing barely slept that night and early the next morning, he took a bag of his remaining medicine to the hospital.

He found his attending doctor and slammed the medicine on the table in front of him.

"Doctor, can you help me check if there's anything wrong with these medicines? Are they all the ones you prescribed? Are you sure there's no mistake in the prescription? Are they all suitable for my condition? Can you check if there's anything extra in the medicine?"

Dr. Deng didn't understand what Zhao Daxing meant, but seeing the serious look on his face, he professionally opened and checked the medicine.

"There's no problem at all, they are all the ones I prescribed. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Zhao Daxing, struggling to hide his discomfort, opened his clothes to show the doctor.

"I, I've developed breasts..."

"They're swollen and painful, and I feel so hot after taking the medicine that I don't even need a blanket."

Dr. Deng listened with a stethoscope, pressed here and there, and finally used a magnifying glass.

After all the fuss, he came to a conclusion.

"Your condition is a normal phenomenon, and there are many reasons why this might happen."

Zhao Daxing closed his clothes and asked urgently, "What reasons?"

Dr. Deng said slowly, "Some patients who lack exercise and overeat may experience an increase in chest size, as well as an increase in abdominal size."

"Also, some patients with endocrine disorders, where there is an excessive secretion of estrogen, may also stimulate the chest to grow and develop."

"Other factors cannot be ruled out either, such as breast hyperplasia..."

Zhao Daxing got anxious, "Are you even a real doctor? I'm a man, I'm a man, how can I have breast hyperplasia, how can I have endocrine disorders!!!!"

Facing Zhao Daxing's roar, Dr. Deng said leisurely, "Please, try to stay calm. I understand your feelings. Recently, you should maintain a good mindset, not get too excited, and avoid large emotional fluctuations. We need your cooperation to prescribe the right treatment..."

Zhao Daxing took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

"What should I do now?"

Dr. Deng picked up a brush and wrote a new prescription, "I will write you a new prescription, the previous medicine is no longer suitable for you, and you have finished it anyway. For the following medicine, you should get it according to my new prescription, I have added a few medicines to regulate your endocrine system..."

After Zhao Daxing walked out of Dr. Deng's office, questioning his existence, Dr. Deng behind him also had a twitching face.

Because Dr. Deng diagnosed it as a normal phenomenon, Zhao Daxing did not suspect that Su An had poisoned him, but his hatred for Su An grew heavier.

Who caused him to be like this today?

Once he recovers, he won't let Su An, that witch, off the hook.

As soon as he got home, Zhao Daxing threw a bag of medicine at Su An's face.

"Where the hell have you been? You're never around all day, you didn't even accompany your man to the hospital, you're useless, you eat everything in sight and leave nothing behind, hurry up and boil the medicine."

Seeing Su An glaring at him, Zhao Daxing felt a moment of guilt, but was quickly suppressed by anger, "What are you looking at? What are you looking at?"

He was increasingly unable to control his temper, and last night he almost hit Xiao Jiliang.

Su An gritted her teeth and endured. Under Zhao Daxing's watchful eyes, she began boiling the medicine.

Zhao Daxing monitored the whole process, and indeed there was no problem.

After Zhao Daxing went in, Su An went to get more Black Chicken and White Phoenix Pills, and wow, Zhao Daxing had already finished a whole box.

Su An rummaged through Xiao Jiliang's cabinet. There were no more Black Chicken and White Phoenix Pills, but she did find a few bags of motherwort herb.

This appears to be a remedy for amenorrhea in women—a condition where menstruation stops—aimed at improving blood flow and regulating periods.

Well, since we're out of Wu Ji Bai Feng Pills, we’ll just have to make do with what’s left.

After finishing those few bags of Motherwort, Zhao Daxing, scared out of his wits, rushed back to the hospital.

He didn’t know if he had a terminal illness—he was terrified, feeling like every second he was alive, Yama, the King of Hell, was waving him over.

Oh my God, he was peeing blood.

A grown man peeing blood...

He was on the brink of a breakdown—he didn’t want to die.

Xiao Jiliang, seeing her son looking like he was at death’s door, nearly had a heart attack.

Her world was falling apart.
