"So this is what happened back then?" Leaning on the couch and looking at Jounouchi Hiromi in his arms as she turned the pages of their high school photo album, Chen Yu was more focused on the photograph of a spirited, short-haired Jounouchi Hiromi, "I never realized you were so cool back in the day, Hiromi. The short hair looks great on you. Why didn't you keep it short afterward?"

"Girls shouldn't be described as 'handsome', right?" Jounouchi Hiromi retorted, slightly annoyed with Chen Yu, but the tomboyish look of her short hair in the photos really could only be described as handsome.

Chen Yu just laughed it off, not caring about Jounouchi Hiromi's rebuttal. Whether she was beautiful or handsome, she was his fiancée, and he didn't need to care whether her hair was long or short.

"By the way, Hiromi, is this Ms. Yuuko now coming to you for treatment? What do you think about her condition?" Chen Yu gently stroked Jounouchi Hiromi's thick, long hair that was spread out, asking her with concern.

"I wish I had a plan! Yuuko, she can't have surgery because of her chronic bronchitis, and she herself refuses chemotherapy and radiotherapy. I just don't know what to do with her!" Jounouchi Hiromi leaned into Chen Yu's embrace and forcefully closed the photo album in her hands, voicing her dissatisfaction with a complaint.

Gripping Jounouchi Hiromi's fingers that had turned white from the force, Chen Yu comforted her gently, "In that case, couldn't you just persuade her? Isn't she your ex-girlfriend? She should listen to you, right?"

"Mr. Chen Yu! Didn't we agree not to joke about this?" Jounouchi Hiromi turned around, pouting as she looked at Chen Yu, feeling somewhat angry that he had brought up the fact that Yuiko Tsuina was her ex-girlfriend again.

However, Chen Yu smiled at her and then said, "I'm not joking. In cases like this where a patient is uncooperative with treatment, shouldn't we as doctors try to find a way to get her to accept treatment? Hiromi, you took Ms. Yuuko's medical records into your own hands because you want to heal her, right?"

While Jounouchi Hiromi was a member of the experimental group, she wasn't very clear about the progress of the drug development. As far as she was aware, the drug was still undergoing human trials.

Chen Yu nodded, confirming her guess, and explained, "Even though it's indeed still in the human trial phase, the results from the first phase were very successful, so we can speed up the clinical trial process. If you can convince Ms. Yuuko to volunteer for the clinical trial, I can use this drug for her treatment.

The medical records you gave me earlier, I had a look, and stage III lung adenocarcinoma isn't too severe; if we can suppress the tumor activity, it won't affect her normal life at all. Plus, after refinements to the drug, the impact on the human body has been significantly reduced, so there won't be side effects like those Naoki experienced."

"Really? That is fantastic!" Jounouchi Hiromi wasn't worried about the safety of the broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug developed by Chen Yu. It was derived from the formula for Necromantic Potion, and even if one didn't trust his expertise in pharmacology, one should trust his abilities as a Necromancer.

Therefore, Jounouchi Hiromi wasn't concerned about the drug's safety; her only worry was its legality.

Now that there was no need to worry about the drug's legality, she could fully persuade Yuiko Tsuina to take the new treatment under the name of being a volunteer, using the drug on her. In this way, she wouldn't need surgery or endure hair-losing chemotherapy. Using Chen Yu's developed broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug to suppress the tumor activity was practically no different from being cured.

With this thought, Jounouchi Hiromi joyfully straddled Chen Yu's waist and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen Yu. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know what to do."

"I've helped you so much; a mere thank you won't do. How about some real appreciation?" said Chen Yu, and before Jounouchi Hiromi could react, he flipped her over beneath him.

"To the room, come on! Not in the living room!" Jounouchi Hiromi let out a futile struggle, causing Audis to once again scurry back into his cat nest.
