Xu Ruoping staggered, her eyes widening as she stared at him, recalling what Hu Yihui had said earlier. A wave of overwhelming regret surged through her heart. "You—you mean your mother's fatal trial has come to pass?"

Taking advantage of these seven days while her soul still carries the breath of the living, I intend to find her and reshape her physical body. As for your job at the hospital and Xu Hongbo's studies, I have already sent people transformed into your likenesses to carry on with work and study on the surface. During this time, the two of you will simply stay by my side!"
