Chapter 1670


    Letting go of Debbie’s wrist, Lily sighed in relief.She quietly left the room and went next door.


    Still awake, Alexander could now move around in the ward and looked no different from a healthy


    person.


    "Dr.Russell.Doing your rounds, huh?" He said it half-jokingly but cooperatively offered his hand.


    Lily gave him a sidelong nce.


    "You look well.You should be able to leave tomorrow."


    "I do? But I feel I can’t." Alexander raised his brow as she took his wrist pulse.


    No matter how often she did it, she was always serious.Her fingers lingered a bit longer on


    purpose.She let go, and her tense look visibly rxed while her eyes sparkled with relief.


    "You’ve fully recovered, and your wrist pulse is steady.Since everything is normal, you should leave


    tomorrow, okay?"


    Alexander stepped forward, held her around her waist, and gently pulled her close.Lily hastily held him


    back by pushing his chest with one hand.


    "Don''t..."


    "But I can’t bear to leave you.What should I do?" He looked down at her somewhat tired eyes, wishing


    to kiss her.n.ovelebook Although she did not say it, he saw how hard she worked daily and wondered if


    she could cope physically.


    "I can’t bear to see you go either, but I’m at the final stage of researching the cure, and it’s the most


    crucial moment.We have to stick it through." She sighed and spoke softly.


    "Sometimes I truly don’t appreciate you being so responsible," Alexander said, somewhat resigned.


    Lily pouted.


    "Sometimes I don’t either, but I can’t just let it go."


    "What happened to the little girl?"


    He heard amotion but did not go and check it out due to the particr circumstance they were


    in.All he knew was that people were arguing.


    "Her condition got worse a bit, but we’ve stabilized it." Lily said softly while lowering her head.


    "That''s it?" Alexander looked at her, pulling her over to sit on the sofa.


    "Although I couldn’t hear it clearly, I heard...an argument? Was someone attacking you?"


    "Not entirely me, and it’s more like a fight between mainstream and herbal medicine practitioners.It has


    always been so.Whenever we face a difficult problem, such a disagreement would arise."


    Shaking her head, Lily felt it was a long-standing problem she could not solve alone.


    ‘However, the ultimate goal of mainstream and herbal medicine is to cure the patients, and that’s what

    "whatever fight it is, don’tnd yourself in danger, okay?"


    Holding her hand tightly, he only cared about her safety.


    Lily smiled.


    Just as she was about to reply, something on her started to beep.She was startled, and so was


    Alexander.


    "What’s that sound?’ "It’s the rm I set.I have to go to theboratory.The herbal medicine should be


    ready by now."


    She let him go and got to her feet.


    "Our battle should be ending soon."


    Seeing her firm gaze, Alexander grew confident as well.


    "Go and end it quickly! Then we''ll go home, okay?"
