Chapter 727
James was deeply absorbed in his thoughts.
He was processing the information Gloom had shared about the Gu raisers that existed a hundred years ago.
“They wanted to control the world with Gus?’
Quincy’s voice startled him. He raised his head and glanced at Quincy standing at the ward door. “How did you not
even make a sound? Are you trying to scare me to death?
“Where did you go?” Quincy looked at him suspiciously and walked out of the ward to scan the surroundings. Seeing
no one outside, she walked back into the ward with her arms folded.
“It’s already so late. Who did you sneak out to see?” asked Quincy.
James yawned. Then, he walked to the hospital bed and muttered, “I’ve slept so long and felt a little stuffy, so I went
for a walk.”
“Is that so?”
Quincy looked at him in disbelief.
James lay down and nodded. “Of course, what else could it be?”

Quincy refrained from asking any more questions. However, she could sense that James had a secret meeting with
someone.
The night passed silently.
The next day…
James woke up and found that Quincy was not around.
He was starving. Since he got poisoned, he would get hungry very quickly, and his appetite had also increased.
He knew it was because the Gus absorbed the nutrients from the food he ate. Thus, he was constantly feeling
hungry, fatigued, and weak.
“Where did she go?” James murmured.
James was hungry but did not feel like moving at all. He continued lying in bed, picked up a cigarette beside him,
and lit it.
After taking a few drags, the cigarette smoke smelt unpleasant and nauseated him. He had no choice but to put out
the cigarette.
“Incoming! Incoming!”
At this moment, Quincy pushed open the door and walked in with food.
She laid it on the table and said with a smile, “You must be hungry.”
James nodded lightly. “Yeah, a little.”
Quincy opened up the meal she had bought from the hospital cafeteria. She picked up a piece
of meat and served it to James’ lip. “Open up.”
James glared at her but obediently parted his lips. The piece of meat was immediately stuffed in his mouth, and he
gently chewed on it.
Quincy was very attentive as she patiently fed James.
James had never received such treatment before in his whole life. He was secretly overjoyed in his heart and could
not help thinking, ‘It sure does feel good being served by others.’ “By the way, what are you going to do next?”
Quincy asked while feeding him. “Take this as an opportunity to rest for a while and recover in peace,” James
replied. “Oh, right. How is your body…” Quincy subconsciously paused and glanced at James worriedly. “The doctor
said that there is an unknown virus in your body. Although it isn’t contagious but is incredibly harmful to the human
body. It will cause severe damage to your body’s immune and nervous systems.”
“It’s venom.” James corrected her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmQuincy was puzzled and asked, “Venom? What kind of venom?”
James did not know much about Gu and was unsure how to explain it to her.
In the end, he did not answer her question. Quincy also did not ask about it anymore and continued feeding him.
After the meal, she wiped James’ lips with a tissue. Then, she took out a cigarette and passed it to him.
James waved and said, “I’m quitting. By the way, help me complete my discharge procedures.” “Discharge?”
Quincy frowned. “Look at yourself right now. You can barely even walk. Where are you going if you don’t want to
stay in the hospital?”
James murmured, “I’m a doctor myself. I know my body very well. The hospital can’t save me right now. I’m the
only one capable of saving myself.”
“That’s true. You’re a genius doctor. I’ll go complete the discharge procedures for you.”
Quincy nodded, turned, and walked out of the ward.
James laid back in bed and rested.
After lying down for a while, he fell asleep.
James was in a daze when Quincy returned after completing the discharge procedures. She even thoughtfully got
him a wheelchair.
