Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1249: I Have My Own Plans, You Need Not Say More

Because the needle removal would require some time, Xinyan readily agreed.
She instructed the Jiao family members present in the ward, "Keep a close watch on the needle; ensure no one disturbs it. I will return shortly to take it out."
With that, she exited the room.
Finding a quiet corner, Xinyan voiced her suspicion, "What exactly do you wish to discuss with me?"
Mr. Ye earnestly stated, "Mr. Han, my situation is as follows: Following the treatment you provided me on the train, my health experienced a more significant improvement than from any prior medical intervention. I am curious if you, Mr. Han, would be willing to continue my treatment. Please be assured, the matter of consultation fees will not be an issue; I will compensate you generously."
At this juncture, Xiao Liu interjected, "Mr. Ye, our stay in the country is rather brief..."
Before he could finish, Mr. Ye cut him off, "I have my own arrangements for this matter; your input is not required."
He then turned his attention back to Xinyan, "Mr. Han, to be perfectly candid, I have returned to China with the primary objective of locating my family. My visa permits a limited duration, and as you are aware of my delicate health, I had almost relinquished hope after an extended fruitless search. However, encountering you has rekindled a sense of possibility, a belief that I might still have a chance to persevere."
Xinyan had not anticipated Mr. Ye's personal circumstances. Reflecting on her own past, a wave of empathy washed over her. "Since you place such great trust in me, Mr. Ye, I will certainly make an effort. However, I must clearly state upfront that you are the best judge of your own condition. I cannot guarantee a complete cure, so I need you to understand this limitation."
Mr. Ye’s face lit up with palpable excitement. "My sole desire is for you to help me prolong my time; that would be more than enough for me."
Xiao Liu, standing by, expressed his skepticism. "Mr. Ye, numerous renowned physicians abroad have been unable to offer a solution. How can you place your faith in a student who has yet to even complete her studies?"
Upon hearing this, Xinyan's demeanor shifted, and she questioned, "Have you been investigating me?"
Mr. Ye observed Xinyan's growing unease. "Mr. Han, please do not be offended. I had no ulterior motives. I did ask Xiao Liu to discreetly inquire about you earlier, intending it as a preliminary step to sending some gifts as a gesture of gratitude."
Xinyan found this statement difficult to accept and cast a dubious glance at Xiao Liu, who was now avoiding her direct gaze. "However, I have not received any gifts whatsoever."
Hearing Xinyan's remark, Mr. Ye's expression drastically changed. "Xiao Liu, did you not follow my instructions?"
Xiao Liu appeared flustered. "Mr. Ye, I have been exceptionally busy recently and simply haven't had the opportunity."
Mr. Ye's anger flared immediately. "You have grown exceedingly audacious to openly defy my directives. Very well. This is unacceptable."
Xiao Liu began to sweat profusely. "No, Mr. Ye, you have truly misunderstood my intentions."
Mr. Ye raised a hand, signaling for him to cease his explanations. "Enough. Go and arrange for the extension of my visa immediately. If you mishandle this task, you will be dismissed without hesitation. Furthermore, should you dare to divulge any information back home, the repercussions will be severe, far beyond anything you would wish to experience."
Xiao Liu was utterly terrified, never imagining he would encounter this woman again. However, he dared not harbor any further misgivings, knowing full well that Mr. Ye possessed the power to make his existence a living hell. "I understand," he stammered.
Mr. Ye gestured dismissively. "Proceed with it at once."
Xiao Liu looked up, a hint of concern in his voice. "I am concerned about leaving you here unattended."
Mr. Ye fixed him with a chilling gaze, causing Xiao Liu to retract his words. "I am on it, sir. Please ensure you take good care of yourself."
After Xiao Liu departed, Mr. Ye's eyes narrowed, a cold glint appearing as he contemplated, "A rather elaborate scheme indeed. Initially, I had intended to bequeath a portion of my assets to her. However, my perspective has shifted; even if I were to donate everything, not a single cent will be allocated to her."
