However, Hong Lianâs words made her feel more at ease. Chu Yihan wouldnât lose his life because of this.
As for the mention of being buried togetherâ¦
Su Yingxue pressed her hand against her chest. She kept these words in her heart, a warmth to console herself.
Another night passed, and Qin Ming and the others gradually showed signs of physical exhaustion. His eldest disciple was the first to cough up blood, and he already had some symptoms of fainting.
Manager Qi came to tell her weakly, âMiss, Lai San is in critical condition! This time, Iâm afraid weâre really in trouble. Miss, you havenât contracted the disease yet. Itâs better to leave quickly! If you survive, thereâs still a glimmer of hope for our medical center and the old master!â
In this short period of time, it was normal for no one to be able to cure this deadly plague!
It would be abnormal if someone did!
Su Yingxue had been busy for a few days and felt a little dizzy. She wore a mask and shook her head hard. âI said it before, we live or die together!â
She would never abandon her people and the medical center and run away!
She went to Lai Sanâs treatment room. Although she cleaned him up every day, the things he vomited became increasingly smelly. The pervasive smell of pus and blood, as the infection spread all over his body, made it unbearable to approach.
His hands were black, but he kept reaching forward. He said in a hoarse voice, âSave⦠Save me, I⦠1 donât want to die.â
Su Yingxue wore gloves, administered medicinal soup, and applied ointment to him. She said calmly, âDonât worry, as long as Iâm alive, I wonât allow anyone to die.â
She wasnât the poison doctor, Saint Ruan, but that didnât mean she couldnât develop the antidote that Saint Ruan had developed.
As night fell, the lights outside the medical center remained on.
Liang Jing dispatched people to seal the road and stationed a heavy guard, but he could not persuade the immovable Chu Yihan, no matter what.
Chu Yihan guarded this place day and night without moving a single step.
Until that beautiful figure appeared on the door frame.
He took a step forward and placed his hand on the door frame. His voice was low. âSu Yingxue, are you okay?â
âIâm still here! Your Highness, I havenât been infected so far, probably because the heavens are looking out for me. Please tell my brother not to worry.â Su Yingxueâs voice was gentle.
Chu Yihan nodded. âOkay.â
âYour Highness, is it that Saint Ruan couldnât be found?â Su Yingxue asked.
Chu Yihanâs eyes darkened. âIâve already ordered the Silver Moon Pavilion to search for him. Weâll definitely find him.â
Su Yingxue laughed secretly. Chu Yihan probably didnât know that Hong Lian had come to see her.
His relationship with the Silver Moon Pavilion was truly extraordinary.
However, this wasnât what she wanted to know. She asked Chu Yihan, âDoes Your Highness understand Saint Ruanâs personality?â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHeâs reclusive, eccentric, and likes⦠to act young.â
Chu Yihan wouldnât have used those words if he wasnât describing Saint Ruan.
Su Yingxue could imagine the look of disgust on Chu Yihanâs face.
âAn old man who likes to act youngâ¦â The image of an old naughty child immediately appeared in Su Yingxueâs mind.
âHe is known as the poison doctor. Does he often use the method of fighting poison with poison?â
âYes, and as he has grown older, he only relies on fighting poison with poison.â
Chu Yihan seemed particularly disdainful of the fact that Saint Ruan was getting older.
Su Yingxue understood what was going on. She pursed her lips and chuckled. âYour Highness, 1 donât know how Saint Ruan concocted the medicine, but now, Iâm going to give it a try.â
After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave.
âWait!â Chu Yihan called out to her, âTell me when youâve concocted the medicine.â
âSure!â Su Yingxue agreed readily.
She locked herself in the treatment room for a day and a night. Using what she had learned and what was recorded in her motherâs letter, she made a bowl of thick poison soup with the venom of the beetle, scorpion juice, and other poisons..
