The voice was faint.
But it clearly reached Chen Nan’s ears.
This caused his pupils to tremble violently, and he immediately dashed toward the second floor.
Xu Lu didn’t know what had happened, but seeing Chen Nan so panicked, she also followed him at once.
Eventually.
The two arrived in a narrow room on the second floor.
The room only had a bed that was one meter twenty wide, a fabric wardrobe, and an old, battered table, along with a dark ceiling fan.
"Chu Qi, what’s wrong?"
Seeing Chu Qi was pale and in pain, lying on the bed, Xu Lu’s eyes also revealed a sense of tension.
"My chest hurts," Chu Qi whispered faintly, her expression filled with agony.
Chen Nan immediately said, "Lie flat on the bed, and I’ll check your body."
Chu Qi, enduring the pain, turned over. Her originally plump face looked extremely haggard at that moment. However, the fullness of her chest, even while lying down, still gave off a proud and erect impression.
Chen Nan extended his right hand, took her pulse in one smooth motion, and then seriously felt Chu Qi’s pulse. Gradually, his expression grew much more solemn.
Xu Lu noticed the change in Chen Nan’s expression and cautiously asked, "Boss, does Chu Qi have some illness?"
Chen Nan withdrew his hand and then looked at Chu Qi, "Have you experienced this situation before?"
Chu Qi shook her head.
She also didn’t know what was going on.
Just now, while she was going upstairs to pack her luggage, she suddenly felt a severe pain in her chest.
It was as if an invisible giant hand had grasped her heart, giving her an almost suffocating illusion.
Then she fell into unconsciousness.
She didn’t know how long she had been unconscious, but when she woke up, all her strength seemed to be drained.
She could only emit faint cries for help.
Chen Nan solemnly said, "The condition you are suffering from is called ’Narrow Cardiac Vessel Disease.’"
"Your heart’s vascular structure is different from ordinary people’s. An average person’s heart vessel is as thick as a little finger, whereas yours is only as thick as a slim cigarette."
"This is why you suddenly feel heart pain."
"Especially when you experience greater emotional fluctuations, or after high-intensity exercise, the demand for blood supply in the myocardium sharply increases. However, your narrow vessels cannot meet this demand, leading to myocardial hypoxia and ischemia, which intensifies the pain."
Chu Qi’s beautiful eyes shone with an unusual light, clearly not expecting Chen Nan to know so much. Regaining her composure, she weakly said, "Yes, lately, whenever I experience too much emotional fluctuation, or after high-intensity exercise, I find it hard to breathe."
Xu Lu asked, "Boss, is Chu Qi’s condition treatable?"
"It’s not a big problem," Chen Nan said. "We can stimulate her heart vessels to thicken a bit through acupuncture and massage."
As he said this, he looked at Chu Qi and softly spoke, "Relax your mind for now, don’t think too much, and once your emotions have calmed down, your feeling of suffocation will gradually disappear!"
Chu Qi nodded, relaxing her mind as Chen Nan had instructed.
Sure enough.
As her emotions stabilized.
She clearly felt that the giant hand holding her heart had also disappeared.
Her breathing became smoother.
Her head was no longer dizzy, and her vision was no longer blurred.
Chen Nan looked at Chu Qi and casually asked, "Have you packed everything?"
Chu Qi, looking somewhat haggard, sat up and nervously nodded.
"Alright, Lu, you help Chu Qi downstairs, and I’ll carry her suitcase," Chen Nan said to Xu Lu, and then he picked up a pink suitcase and headed outside.
Chu Qi mustered her courage and asked nervously, "Boss, I have a heart condition. Will you still hire me?"
Chen Nan turned back with a smile, "We had already hired you before we knew about your heart condition, so you are still our colleague!"
"As long as you are our colleague, I will take full responsibility for you," he said, not looking back as he went downstairs.
"Chu Qi, our boss is really a man of deep feelings and loyalty!" Xu Lu said with a beaming smile, then supported Chu Qi as they walked downstairs.
Chu Qi didn’t say much.
But inside, she felt an inexplicable fondness for Chen Nan.
After all.
Compassionate bosses like Chen Nan were rare nowadays.
An hour later.
Chen Nan drove Xu Lu and Chu Qi back to the Jinxiu Qiancheng District.
It was already nine o’clock in the evening.
Because it was too late, Xu Lu didn’t cook but went to a restaurant below their apartment complex, ordered a few dishes, and treated it as a welcome meal for Chu Qi.
Meanwhile, Chen Nan was in the living room watching television.
As for Chu Qi.
She took a set of pajamas and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
After all, she hadn’t bathed in three days, felt sticky all over, and smelt off.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Listening to the sound of splashing water from the bathroom, Chen Nan’s gaze involuntarily drifted toward the direction of the bathroom.
Through the foggy glass door, a scene that made his blood surge unfolded before his eyes.
It made his blood surge, and his heart began to pound violently.
He could clearly see the beautifully curvaceous figure.
The elongated neck like that of an elegant swan, smooth and well-defined, appeared as a fine piece of art.
Her rounded shoulders were soft, glistening under the water droplets like pearls, charming and captivating.
Her breasts were full and proud, their bold curves even more prominent behind the foggy glass, resembling two mountains lightly veiled by morning mist, mysterious and alluring.
Her slender waist, hardly a handful, swayed gently like breezy willows, graceful and showcasing extreme suppleness and aesthetic.
Her buttocks were round and perky, like ripe juicy peaches, sculpting perfect curves.
Her long legs were straight and symmetrical, muscles firm yet elastic, showcasing a healthy sheen under the flow of water.
The sensual silhouette, partially hidden behind the misty glass door, exuded an indescribable sexiness and allure.
Far more tempting than witnessing a naked beauty appear before him.
Especially when Chu Qi reached between her legs, gently cleansing her private area, Chen Nan felt almost breathless with desire, wishing he could enter the bathroom and assist her.
Ten minutes later.
Chu Qi came out with her face flushed, wearing a loose white nightgown.
Although she was in a loose nightgown, her impressive figure was still evident, creating a strong visual impact.
Chen Nan struggled to control his emotions, stood up and said, "Let’s go to the bedroom, I’ll start by giving you a few acupuncture needles."
Upon hearing that he would give her acupuncture.
Chu Qi’s cheeks quickly reddened, giving off a delicate, innocent yet desirous vibe.
Though nervous, she still followed Chen Nan to the bedroom, then cautiously asked, "Boss, how should I cooperate with you?"
