Chapter 87: Treat or Not
Before long, he returned, placing a mask on the seat. His gaze remained indifferent as ever. “The smell of disinfectant in the hospital is strong.”
After speaking, Fu Shimo leaned back in his seat and closed his cool, deep eyes.
“Hmm, thanks.”
Yan Zhixu picked up the white mask, fiddling with it curiously for a few seconds.
Then she put it on, covering her face. Her exposed eyes shimmered with a playful glint.
Driver Xiao Wang: ?????
The smell of disinfectant? That doesn’t seem like the main concern here!
If he remembered correctly, wasn’t this young lady a celebrity? Shouldn’t she be more worried about being recognized?
Suppressing his questions, Xiao Wang wisely stayed silent and obediently started the car. The Hongqi sped through the night toward the city’s central hospital.

At the hospital.
The mayor’s grave illness had left this floor of the inpatient department eerily quiet. The heavy atmosphere hung over the corridors, and medical staff moved silently, careful not to disturb the stillness.
Mayor Lu had served for many years, known for his integrity and outstanding achievements. His policies greatly benefited the people of F City, earning him widespread respect and support.
“Click—”
The door to the ward opened, and the group entered.
Secretary Li’s eyes lit up when he saw Fu Shimo, his previously dull expression instantly rejuvenated. “Director Fu, you’re finally back! Did you bring the expert? The mayor’s condition is worsening.”
Since Fu Shimo left, the mayor’s state had become increasingly unstable. His face contorted in pain, and even the fluctuations on his ECG were alarming.
Standing by the bedside, Fu Shimo glanced at the now-steady heart monitor and replied calmly, “Mm.”
Secretary Li looked around expectantly.
His gaze finally landed on the woman standing beside Director Fu.
“This... is the expert? But...”
The woman before him was tall and slender, dressed simply yet stylishly, exuding a clean and refreshing aura.
However, she looked far too young—barely in her early twenties—completely at odds with the image of a seasoned master or a reclusive expert he had imagined.
Noticing the doubt in Secretary Li’s eyes, Fu Shimo pressed his lips together slightly and gave him a cold look. “Treat or not?”

Though his tone was steady and his expression unchanged, the weight of his words sent a chill through the air.
Secretary Li hesitated, his uncertainty evident. “But... but...”
The mayor’s condition was critical; treatment was necessary. Yet entrusting such a crucial task to someone so young felt risky.
“Well, if no treatment is needed, I’ll head back to sleep. I’m a bit tired anyway.”
Yan Zhixu leaned lazily against the wall, one leg crossed over the other, exuding a casual, carefree attitude.
“Treat! Let her treat!”
The mayor’s wife, who had been silent until now, raised her head. Her face was haggard, but her eyes held a flicker of hope.
Her voice was weak but resolute. “Miss, please, I’m counting on you.”
The situation was already dire; they couldn’t afford to delay any further.
Even if there was only the slightest chance, she couldn’t give up.
Moreover, with Fu Shimo’s renowned medical ethics and dedication, she trusted that anyone he brought must be genuinely capable.
“...”
Hearing the mayor’s wife’s plea, Secretary Li opened his mouth as if to speak but swallowed his words.
She was right—the mayor’s condition couldn’t be delayed any longer.
“Alright then.”
“Director Fu stays; the rest of you, leave.”
Yan Zhixu straightened up, rolling her wrists. Her aura radiated a wild confidence that could easily be mistaken for someone about to pick a fight.
