Intimidated by Fade, Malcom did not dare argue with him anymore. Supported by his two assistants, he hurriedly left the room.

Without further ado, Fade went to Quin's side and examined her condition.

As soon as he touched Quin's body, Fade felt a chill creep down his spine. That chilling sensation was much stronger than when he treated Quin for the first time.

Fade instantly turned gloomy. He lifted Quin's clothes to check her back.

Of the eight petals on the Ice Lotus, seven have already bloomed, and there was only one petal left.

"Her condition has worsened." Fade became really anxious. "If all eight petals bloom, even I can't save Quin from certain death."

Although Fade was anxious, he forcibly calmed himself down and took Quin's pulse.

After the diagnosis, he finally let out a small sigh of relief. He had been with Quin for more than a year now and had not been able to completely cure the disease caused by the Ice Lotus Seed. Under Fade's care and medication, Quin's condition was gradually looking better, and the ripening of the Ice Lotus Seed has actually been delayed substantially.

Right now, in the absence of a better way, Fade could only carefully insert his own positive energy into Quin's body to purge the lingering chill.

Ever since Fade refined the Nine Leaf Ice Flower, his strength had risen rapidly. Therefore, his positive energy was now more effective in treating Quin with positive energy.

After the long treatment, Fade withdrew his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Meanwhile, Quin, who was unconscious on the bed, gradually opened her eyes.

"Quin, you're finally awake." A smile appeared on Fade's face.

When Quin saw Fade next to her, she was shocked. "Why are you here?"

Quin struggled to get up.

Fade quickly held Quin down and said with a smile, "I've come to see you. You've just woken up and you're still weak. Lie down and rest first."

"But, regarding the exhibition, I still..." Quin was indeed a workaholic. Even though she had just woken up, the first thing on her mind was work.

Meanwhile, Lily came in and hurriedly advised, "Quin, don't worry about the exhibition. I've done all the necessary preparations and everything is going smoothly." Upon hearing this, Quin willingly laid back down.

Thereupon, Fade prepared a medicated meal for Quin and spoon-fed her himself. After the meal, the colour slowly returned to Quin's face and her chills subsided. They chatted for a while before Fade helped Quin to lie down and rest. He walked out with Lily.

In the living room, Fade quickly wrote a prescription and handed it to Lucas. "Lucas, please go look for these herbs."

"Yes, Mr. Chen!" Lucas nodded, and then quickly exited the room with the prescription.

Seeing this, Lily asked with concern, "Can the prescription cure Quin's illness?"

Fade shook his head and said, "Quin's condition is a little unique. It can't be cured by any ordinary medicine. The prescription I gave can only temporarily ease Quin's condition. I've yet to find a way that can completely cure Quin."

"How could this be? Quin... " Lily was in denial as sorrow washed across her face.

Fade comforted her, "Sister Lily, don't worry, I promise to find a way to cure Quin. The most important thing for us now is not to let Quin worry about us.

Lily nodded and said, "I understand. I'll deal with the company's affairs. I won't let Quin worry about it." "Sister Lily, thanks for your hard work." Fade reached out and grabbed Lily's hand, nodding gratefully.

After that, Fade took out his mobile phone and called Franklin from the Lightning Clan.

Yesterday, he asked Franklin to look for some herbs because Shinnie was implanted with the Snow Lotus Seed. Now that Quin's illness had worsened, the medicine he required became even more precious. Fade could only ask Franklin to try his best to find the medicine he needed.

When he answered the phone, Fade explained the situation as well as his intentions.

Franklin promised he would try his best. If the herbs were available in the Dragon Source Herb Farm, he would reserve it for Fade. For the rest of the herbs, he would contact people all over to procure and barter for the herbs.

Fade thanked Franklin on the phone and hung up. Then, he called the Sun family and asked about Shinnie. Upon hearing that Shinnie's condition was stable, Fade finally managed to calm down. Leaning on the sofa, he let out a big sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, a figure unconsciously appeared within Fade's mind.

The figure was Ulrick, the Earth Level killer whom the Sun family met when they were up on the mountain. The killer who planted a Snow Lotus Seed in Shinnie and warned Fade that Quin might be in danger. Not long after his warning, Quin's condition worsened. Fade was immensely troubled by how uncannily coincidental everything seemed.

That night, Fade stayed in Quin's room to take care of her.

Quin's condition was greatly improved come the next morning, and she was now able to walk, albeit slowly.

However, just to be on the safe side, Fade decided to let Quin rest a little longer. As for the company, Fade could only trouble Sister Lily to handle everything by herself.

At noon that day, Fade fed Quin another medicated meal and asked her to lie down and rest.

Just then, Fade received a call from Lily. Fade picked up the phone and asked, "Sister Lily, what's wrong?"

On the other end of the line, Lily's voice was a little furious and anxious. "Fade, bad news. There's trouble at the company."

"What trouble?" Fade frowned. His heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm. He said in a low tone, "Sister Lily, don't worry. Take your time. Tell me what happened."

Although Lily tried her best to control herself, her anger still showed through. "For the cosmetic exhibition our Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc is attending this time, we invited a local company to help with some of the preparatory work for the exhibition, as we're not familiar with the rules and regulations in Jade City."

"Tomorrow, the exhibition will officially begin. In light of that, I contacted their boss, Matteo Chen, to make sure everything was going according to plan."

"However, they unexpectedly cancelled our collaboration instead. We originally had a booth in the exhibition but now our booth has been recalled for another company."
