~7 min read 1,343 words

"Wow, Lili is so beautiful today!"

"This is just too good-looking!"

"My god, I'm mesmerized!"

Looking at Zhang Xiaoli in her pure white wedding dress, beautiful as a celestial maiden from the heavens, the entire wedding scene was in an uproar!

Even the experienced host couldn't help but be distracted upon seeing such a beautiful bride!

At this moment, looking at the groom beside her, who had an average appearance and a hint of sleaziness, the host suddenly felt an urge to kick him to death!

How could such a goddess, comparable to a star, have taken a fancy to someone like Zhou Xiaojun?

It wasn't just the host who thought this; at this very moment, almost all the guests at the scene who saw the bride had the same thought in their hearts!

The women's eyes flashed with envy and jealousy, but also a bit of schadenfreude, because such a heavenly woman was marrying such a man who was hardly presentable!

As for the men, their gazes were full of regret and jealousy!

How unfair is heaven, to let such a stunning goddess marry a man like this?

Among all the men at the scene, Lin Dazhi was the only one looking at the bride with pure appreciation. However, even he had to admit that Zhang Xiaoli was truly too beautiful today!

As expected, a wedding dress provides a bonus to a woman!

"Now, groom, please walk along this aisle of love to welcome your beautiful bride!"

Hearing the host's words, Zhou Xiaojun, who had long been unable to restrain himself, couldn't help but quicken his pace and walk rapidly toward the end of the aisle!

His eyes flashed with undisguised desire; if it weren't for the wedding scene, he would have loved to rush up right now, pull Zhang Xiaoli tightly into his arms, and vent to his heart's content!

Watching Zhang Xiaoli get closer and closer, Zhou Xiaojun became more and more excited!

"Beautiful, too beautiful! Such a beautiful woman is actually my wife! It's really strange, having been with her for a few months, how did I not notice she was this pretty before?" Zhou Xiaojun thought excitedly, feeling his heartbeat getting faster and faster!

Thump~~ thump-thump~~

His heart was indeed beating faster and faster, so fast it felt like it was about to jump out of his chest!

"Calm down, calm down!" Zhou Xiaojun kept reminding himself; the increasingly rapid heartbeat made him feel somewhat uncomfortable!

But at this moment, his heartbeat seemed out of control, its speed racing toward its peak!

"Thud!" Just about to reach Zhang Xiaoli, Zhou Xiaojun suddenly fell heavily to the ground!

This scene instantly stunned everyone!

"Xiaojun, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xiaoli was terrified and hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhou Xiaojun.

Several young men from the tables on both sides saw this and also scrambled up to help.

The host was also stunned; everything was fine, so why did the groom suddenly collapse?

From excitement?

"Xiaojun!"

"Son!"

Zhou Dakui and Xie Fenglan were sitting there grinning from ear to ear, watching their son about to marry the little rich girl Zhang Xiaoli, never expecting something to go wrong at the critical moment!

The old couple ran quickly to the front, pushed through the crowd, and arrived at their son's side.

"Xiaojun, Xiaojun, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't scare Mom!"

Zhou Yue, who was sitting at the table closest to the stage, was also terrified; she rushed over quickly, looked at her pale-faced brother on the ground, and hurriedly shook him while shouting loudly: "Xiaojun, Xiaojun, what's wrong with you?"

"I... I'm uncomfortable, my chest is uncomfortable, I can't catch my breath." Zhou Xiaojun barely opened his eyes and said with difficulty.

"Quick, quick, send him to the hospital!"

"Hurry, a few people come help lift him!"

"Call 120 immediately!"

The crowd scrambled to carry Zhou Xiaojun out of the hotel; at this moment, Lin Dazhi couldn't care about eating anymore and quickly went outside to drive his car over.

"Hurry up, take Xiaojun to the hospital!" At this moment, Zhou Yue couldn't care about anything else and said to Lin Dazhi with an anxious face.

Lin Dazhi nodded, and after everyone lifted Zhou Xiaojun into the back seat, he stepped directly on the gas and rushed toward the nearest People's Hospital.

In the passenger seat, the bride Zhang Xiaoli, in her pure white wedding dress, had an anxious and worried look, turning her head from time to time to talk to Zhou Xiaojun.

In the back seat, Xie Fenglan held her son, wiping away tears incessantly.

"How could this happen when everything was fine? Son, don't scare Mom, what exactly is wrong with you?" Xie Fenglan said with a sobbing tone.

Zhou Xiaojun kept his eyes tightly shut and couldn't say a word.

Xie Fenglan had no choice but to vent her anger on Lin Dazhi, who was driving.

"Lin Dazhi, can you drive any faster! Don't you see Xiaojun is like this?" Xie Fenglan shrieked.

Lin Dazhi frowned and ignored her.

Although he had no affection for his former brother-in-law or the Zhou family, standing from the perspective of an ordinary person, Lin Dazhi could understand Xie Fenglan's feelings at this moment. One thing at a time; Lin Dazhi did not intend to settle scores with them at this time.

A moment later, the car arrived at the hospital, and several doctors and nurses who had been waiting there hurriedly lifted the person from the car and sent him directly into the emergency room.

Bai Weiwei, Sun Xiaomei, and Zhao Yuanyuan also followed, along with several close relatives of the Zhou Family; more than twenty people sat on chairs outside the emergency room, waiting anxiously for the results.

Lin Dazhi sat on a chair in the corner, silently thinking about what had just happened.

Zhou Xiaojun's sudden incident was purely an accident. However, Lin Dazhi suspected that this matter was very likely related to the system.

Don't forget, Zhang Xiaoli is now his Lick Dog, and the system's automatic protection mechanism has been upgraded accordingly.

Under normal circumstances, even if Zhou Xiaojun had AIDS, he would at most be physically weak; with proper medication, living another eight or ten years would not be a problem.

But what if the system accelerated this process?

Lin Dazhi looked at Zhang Xiaoli, who was sitting beside him with a calm expression, and very much wanted to discuss this issue with her, but seeing the three members of the Zhou Family not far away with red eyes, he dismissed the thought.

Twenty minutes later, the door to the emergency room opened, and a doctor walked out holding a medical record.

"Doctor, doctor! How is my son?"

"Physician, how is it?"

"What happened to my brother?"

Watching the crowd surrounding him, the doctor frowned and said, "Who among you is the patient's family?"

"I am, I am Zhou Xiaojun's mother!"

"I am his sister!"

"I am his father!"

"Alright then, you few come over here with me. Everyone else, stop crowding around here." The doctor gave a few instructions and led the three members of the Zhou Family to the office.

"You are Zhou Xiaojun's mother, correct?" the doctor asked.

Xie Fenglan nodded hurriedly.

"Zhou Xiaojun suffers from AIDS and also has a very serious congenital heart disease; are you aware of this situation?" the doctor said, frowning.

"This~~~ we know, but isn't that illness manageable with medication? And as for his heart, when he was checked as a child, they said there was a slight problem, but he's been fine all these years," Xie Fenglan said upon hearing the doctor's words.

"How could he be fine? Heart disease is most afraid of agitation, and his having contracted this AIDS has caused his body's immunity to drop significantly, making his heart even more fragile. If you hadn't brought him in time just now, he would have lost his life!" the doctor said sternly.

"Ah?"

Hearing the doctor's words, Xie Fenglan's face turned pale instantly!
