Duoduo and Kaka also flew to Riyadh on the third day. Ye Tianyu went to the Middle East, and Mo Chen had to return to Sicily to handle important matters, making the Su family lively again. In Dana's memory, the Su family was always bustling for a period of time every year. Su Man doesn't like traveling or moving around; Baiye would only be out with him for a few days before returning home. Unlike Ye Wei and the others who travel everywhere, so when they have free time, Ye Wei and her group usually come to stay in Riyadh for several days.

Rongyan, Chu Li, Blackjack, Jason, and other people generally stay for a period of time; the Su family even has special guest rooms for them. There's not much to do in Riyadh, as they've pretty much explored all the places worth visiting, so it's just an occasion for old friends to get together. Besides these occasions, it’s also the treatment time. For minor injuries and discomforts, people don't bother with the Sues, but once someone needs to be sent here, almost everyone will gather at the Su family.

This atmosphere was much more solemn than before; even when Kaka had heart problems or Ye Feimo had stomach cancer, it wasn’t so heavy. Baiye tried using medicine on Mo Xiaobai to reduce the concentration of toxins in his blood. His addiction is worsening day by day, and the episodes are becoming shorter. Baiye and Su Man must find a way to ensure that Mo Xiaobai's body remains healthy while also extending the interval between addiction episodes.

For Mo Xiaobai, this was an extremely painful experience.

A frail body with failing internal organs is tormenting him day by day. For Mo Xiaobai to fully get rid of his addiction, he would have to undergo several trials in hell; even before the detoxification begins, he's almost at the breaking point.

Due to his addiction, Xiao Bai's external wounds are healing very slowly, and so is the recovery of injuries on his body. Baiye dare not neglect these external injuries out of fear that something might go wrong; he checks Xiao Bai daily, analyzes data, studies the situation, writes reports, trying to alleviate Xiao Bai's pain... Currently, only drugs can relieve Xiao Bai’s suffering. Mo Yao cannot distract Xiao Bai either. As the amount of drugs decreases day by day, Baiye gradually becomes worried: what will happen when Xiao Bai runs out of drugs If he continues injecting them, Xiao Bai's body will eventually collapse.

This is a drug that once you get hooked on it, it’s almost certain to be fatal.

Ye Wei was very concerned; Xiao Bai didn't want to see anyone starting from the third day. Even Mo Yao couldn’t see him anymore except for Su Man and Baiye. Mo Yao was worried but had no other way to help.

He could do nothing about it.

Xiao Bai's condition was deteriorating every day; Baiye felt like he needed to disassemble Xiao Bai and re-create him using bones and blood...

Please stop, Xiao Bai...

These days, no one is in a good mood. Ye Wei and Shiyiri are in the courtyard opposite the hospital room. Xiaobai doesn't want to see them, and they dare not provoke him either; otherwise, if he goes berserk, it won't do any good for his condition.

Shiyiri asks Baiye, "Is there another way to help with detoxification This is too cruel. How can Xiaobai possibly endure it"

This is actually worse than a bullet ending him.

Baiye says, "We are already looking for alternatives. We’re trying to develop an antiserum that could suppress the effects of this drug. It takes time, but Xiaobai can’t wait. Weiwei, Shiyiri, medicine isn't everything."

Ye Wei knows; she understands all too well. They used to rely heavily on Baiye and Su Man in the past, so it’s natural for them to be anxious.

Su Man has been locked up in the lab working nonstop. Xiaobai only has seven doses of the drug left. Originally, its effects were occurring three times a day, but Baiye managed to stretch that out to once a day. Even so, there are only seven days remaining.

In this heavy atmosphere, everyone is getting quieter and more withdrawn. Ye Feimo and Ye Ningyuan have been calling; the brothers wanted to come over too, but Baiye felt having too many people around would make things worse, so he asked them not to come for now. They need a quiet space, and besides, they’re not doctors.

Xunuo gave Su Man the drug formula she had stolen from the Federation’s secret archives. There were lots of secrets locked up in there—biological weapons, new inventions, everything that shouldn’t be seen by the public. She made a copy of the formula and sent it to Su Man, hoping it would help. With this formula, Su Man could analyze the drug components but didn’t know the subsequent procedures for refining it. He tried making one himself, but couldn't get the proportions right until Xunuo gave him the formula. It only took Su Man three days to make an identical batch of the drug and gradually reduce its purity.

For Xiaobai, a lower-purity version of the same drug felt different. Like drug users who no longer smoke because it doesn’t satisfy their craving, Xiaobai reacted very strongly to impure drugs.

The pain, convulsions, hallucinations, nightmares… repeated day after day, worse than death. Baiye stayed by his side every day and helped him adapt to the lower-purity drug. At first, Xiaobai was in such agony that his muscles were twisted up; he started self-harming again. Su Man and Baiye had no choice but to restrain his limbs and waist with handcuffs.

"Xiaobai…" Wushuang felt distressed seeing him struggling in pain inside the ward, knowing they could do nothing from outside. Her heart ached, unwilling to look but even more so unable to leave. She had to stay by the door, letting Xiaobai know that his entire family was there supporting him through this crisis.

Mochen came once and was sent away by Moyao. They needed someone to remain on Sicily Island, so Mochen had no choice but to return. In these seven days, Xiaobai hadn’t been conscious for even one day… Because of the impure drug injections, he constantly fell into a coma, experiencing convulsions and hallucinations repeatedly, over and over again. The moment he woke up, the psychological pressure was enough to drive him insane, directly tormenting both his mind and body.

His voice was almost hoarse, and in the end, Baiye had no choice but to cover his mouth. When Xiaobai was at his most painful moments, he attempted to bite his tongue; Baiye knew how miserable that must have been...

Shiyi said, "Including the original few days, it’s already approaching ten days. Why is this happening The hardest part of detoxification should be the first few days, after which it gets easier. Why has Xiaobai's condition worsened"

Su Man said, "He hasn't even started detoxifying yet!"

"What" Ye Wei couldn’t believe it.

Su Man explained, "His body is too weak to undergo detoxification. Baiye needs to ensure that his body can withstand the pain of detoxification. The impure drugs we injected were just a test for Xiaobai’s tolerance level; he hasn't started detoxifying yet, and even low-purity drugs are still drugs."

Mojue said, "If it's this bad without starting detoxification, what will happen when he actually starts"

Su Man replied, "Therefore, I don’t suggest you stay with him. Generally speaking, family members tend to collapse faster than the patient."

No one spoke for a while. Mo Yao hadn’t said anything in these few days and only waited outside Xiaobai’s room; he didn't want to talk to anyone either. Shiyi tried talking to him but got no response. Shiyi sighed, thinking that if something happened to Xiaobai, the Mo family would likely lose two children.

Kaka approached Mo Yao and said, "You need to go outside for some fresh air, Mo Yao. Find something to do; don't just sit here like this. Otherwise, when Xiaobai recovers, you’ll be down too. He wouldn’t want to see that."

Moyo remained unmoved. Kaka sat beside him and said, "I know what you're thinking. Actually, none of this is your fault. We don't wish for Xiaobai to suffer like this either. Since it has happened, we must face it bravely. Sitting here won’t help Xiaobai at all."

"There's nothing I can do," Mo Yao said. "I can’t even endure the suffering with him since drugs don't affect me. I don't know what else could possibly help Xiaobai; he needs so much help and we can’t give it to him. When we are unhappy or things go wrong, Xiaobai always makes us laugh happily. Now that he has fallen, no one can lift him back up."

This topic was heavy on everyone’s hearts. Even Kaka felt down after talking about it. He patted Mo Yao's shoulder but didn’t say anything more, for words would be of little use and wouldn’t be heard anyway. In truth, everyone understood the logic behind these points, but when such situations happened to them personally, acceptance was harder.

Ye Wei asked Bai Ye, "How many more days before Little White feels better"

Bai Ye didn't know either. "He's just starting; the really tough times haven't begun yet. If he can't handle this already, how is he going to cope with what’s coming Weiwei, I suggest you go on a trip for some time and come back after a month. Maybe then Little White will feel better."

"I don't even know if my son can survive, and you want me to go on vacation"

"Being here isn’t helping him in any way, is it You’re suffering too, there's no need for that." Bai Ye said. Ye Wei shook her head. "Right now I won't be going anywhere else; of course, as soon as I leave I’ll start killing people. Do you want me to go"

Mojue and Ye Wei were both the type who wanted to kill when they were depressed. Bai Ye was speechless. Alright then, he had seen Mojue and Ye Wei as the most extreme individuals; there was no point in trying to persuade them. Shiyi and MoYe wouldn’t leave either, so there was nothing else to do but stay. Actually, he did it for their own good—sometimes not seeing things would be better for them emotionally.

Wu Shuang leaned against Kakak with a gloomy expression. Kakak asked, "When I had an episode, were you like Mo Yao"

"It’s not that bad; we can’t really compare it to your case. Big Boss feels he has let Little White down; everything that happened to Little White is his fault. But I haven't wronged you, so there's no reason for me to be as devastated." Wu Shuang said with a smile and patted his chest. "You're not going to die either, so I don't worry."

"Stubborn!" Kakak said. "Your family expresses grief in almost the same way."

"It's genetic," Wu Shuang said. "I can’t see Little White regaining consciousness anytime soon; it feels like dawn will never come." Kakak held her tightly. "Don't think too much, things will get better."

There was only hope left.

Everything else had been lost, leaving only hope remaining.

The heavens couldn’t take away their last shred of hope.e saw Wushuang’s beautiful face right before him. Her purple eyes reflected his slightly confused and half-asleep face, lacking the usual sharpness. She had been sleeping on his arm all night, causing...
