Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 833: Why Won’t You Tell Me?

Ji Wei had no time to think deeply, and almost immediately turned around.

Gu Moqian was leaning against the partition door for support; he couldn’t stand steadily at all, his body was somewhat swaying. Seeing his face as pale as paper and the sweat soaking his forehead, Ji Wei fiercely held back the sting in her nose and quickly walked over to support him.

"Mo Qian, how are you? Can you hold on?"

Seeing the woman’s extremely worried demeanor, Gu Moqian moved his colorless lips, hoarsely replying, "I’m fine."

Ji Wei refused to believe he was truly fine; she was very certain that his appearance was due to a relapse.

"How long has this situation been going on? Why won’t you tell me?" she asked worriedly, a layer of mist clouding her eyes.

Gu Moqian looked at her, his gaze deep and profound, and he spoke with difficulty, "For some time now."

It’s better that she misunderstands him as being ill. He dared not imagine how Ji Wei would react if she knew he was addicted to drugs.

"Have you seen a doctor? What...illness is it?" Ji Wei’s voice trembled.

There are plenty of cancer plots in dramas, and she’s truly afraid that Gu Moqian is hiding it from her because he has cancer. If that were true, then his proposal for divorce back then would make sense.

This is clearly the kind of scene that only appears on TV, yet unexpectedly, it happened in real life!

Ji Wei’s heart ached, filled with endless guilt and self-blame.

The person who was by her side every day had such a severe problem, and she didn’t notice at all, which was truly inexcusable!

Gu Moqian just quietly stared at her, without speaking.

She couldn’t bear to look at his thin face; she lowered her eyelashes, forcing back the tears that threatened to spill, and pretended to be lighthearted, saying, "Mo Qian, it’s okay. No matter what illness it is, with today’s advanced medical technology, it can definitely be cured."

She talked to herself, then looked up at him, forcing a smile and continued, "Let me help you out of here, okay?"

He saw all her reactions, and this was the last thing he wanted to see.

He would rather endure the pain of drug addiction alone than have her worry and be anxious with him...

After a long silence, Gu Moqian slowly nodded.

Ji Wei carefully supported him out of the men’s restroom, ignoring the strange looks from people at the door, and walked straight ahead.

Gu Moqian eased somewhat, but his body still twitched a bit; his thin lips tightly pressed together, his eyes deep and unreadable.

"I remember Doctor Shi’s office is on the third floor. I’ll take you there and let him diagnose your condition, okay?" Ji Wei spoke gently, her tone suggesting a discussion with him.

Gu Moqian looked at her, saying nothing.

"Your silence means agreement," Ji Wei tugged at her lips again, "Doctor Shi is your friend. I’ll feel reassured to let him diagnose you."

Shi Ye was indeed in the consultation room, having just finished seeing the previous patient. When he saw Ji Wei supporting Gu Moqian as they appeared, he was slightly surprised.

Gu Moqian’s unusually pale complexion and unsteady steps immediately made Shi Ye understand a lot.

"Doctor Shi, could you please diagnose Mo Qian? He...is not feeling well." Ji Wei did not voice her own suspicions; everything needed to be confirmed first before drawing conclusions.

Upon hearing this, Shi Ye raised his gaze and exchanged a subtle look with Gu Moqian, then responded calmly, "Alright."

Shi Ye used the pretext of giving Gu Moqian a physical check-up to take him into the partitioned area inside the consultation room.

A thick curtain separated the space in the middle.
