Hearing the side hall door slowly open, Mrs. Dong and Doctor Hong turned around to see Xiao Rongyan nervously supporting Bai Qingyan as they walked out. Mrs. Dong immediately retracted her peaceful and respectful demeanor she had when discussing external statements with Doctor Hong earlier and looked sternly towards Bai Qingyan and Xiao Rongyan.
Xiao Rongyan saw Mrs. Dong release Bai Qingyan, then knelt and bowed to Mrs. Dong once more, saying, "Mother, A Yan and Kid have reached an agreement. Externally, we will say... Xiao Rongyan is gravely ill and has not long to live, Kid, out of deep affection, is willing to marry Xiao Rongyan. This provides a reasonable explanation for the hasty marriage. As for the severe illness, A Yan will handle it properly to ensure Kid's reputation is not tarnished in the slightest. Tonight, Xiao Rongyan will fall seriously ill, and Doctor Huang will be asked to personally diagnose, confirming the shortness of life."
