Zayn made the remark powerfully in a tone filled with overbearingness, determination, and with rich defiance. It was as if he was roaring to God in defiance that not even God Himself could take Faye’s life away from him!
Sensing his emotions, Faye was stunned.
She raised her head and looked at him for a few seconds in a daze. “Zayn…”
Zayn cracked a smile that was so gentle it could melt a person’s heart and whispered softly, “Fifi, please believe in me. I promise you that I won’t let you fade away just like that.”
Faye bit her lower lip tightly. She could see through Zayn’s confidence and assurance.
Feeling deeply moved in her heart, she nodded strenuously and said, “Alright! I believe in you!”
Zayn said smilingly, “That’s great then.”
Even though he could still see sorrow and a lack of confidence through Faye’s gaze, it did not sway his confidence.
For the next few days, Zayn did not go anyway. Instead, he stayed and accompanied Faye. Both of them were extremely loving with each other.
Moreover, they had a mutual understanding of the matter and did not bring it up for discussion anymore as if they had forgotten about it.
Although Faye was still rather depressed and guilty during the first two days, she was gradually relieved after a few days. It was her destiny, after all, and there was nothing she could do to change it but accept the reality.
Speaking of which, she felt that she lived a much better life compared to others. She had a wholesome and happy family as well as a man who loved her deeply. Her husband was also a big shot whose influence spread far and wide, so she had no regrets.
During those few days, Zayn did not look into treatment techniques specifically or contact medical teams on behalf of her either.
He did not assume a sad expression when he was with her but spent all day with her. They were happy, joyous, and sweet.
However, she was unaware that Zayn did not stop investigating or figuring out ways at all over the past few days. He would always begin his research only after Faye was sound asleep.
He did not disclose this to her but acted as if he was having a good time when he was with her. He spared no effort in pleasing Faye now because it was his responsibility and duty as her husband.
Through his research, he roughly figured out that Faye had an extremely rare illness. Rather than calling it an illness, it should be said that she had a flaw in her health.
It was as if she was cursed to the extent that her bodily functions would begin to deteriorate after a certain age.
Her life force would start to drain from her, and even with consistent physical training, medication consumption, or martial arts training, she could not be cured.
Zayn found traces of clues from ancient medical journals and discovered that cases of this condition would occur occasionally over a few millennia.
If he were to calculate its probability, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was one in a million.
He did not expect that Faye would actually have a cursed physique like this.
It was really… goddamn it!
Zayn exhausted every means to look into this and figure out solutions over the days. Despite his otherworldly physique, he could not help feeling a little tired due to the exhausting work!
In fact, he would even seize the opportunity to travel a great distance to a few cities nearby at midnight to meet a number of renowned doctors. Yet, his efforts were futile.
In the end, he found out some information from an old apothecary.
He learned that the illness could not be cured with common medical practice. The only cure was to look for a medicinal ingredient that could replenish the patient’s essence of life and fill the gaps in the patient’s physique!
Replenishing one’s essence of life…
Upon hearing that, Zayn’s mind was immediately enlightened.
