âBecause in his heart, Iâm just a monster. Iâm probably not even human. Iâm just an experimental subject that should be slaughtered by others in the laboratory. Now that Iâm the master, he naturally feels uncomfortable, right?â I glared at Lin Hua with disdain.
Lin Hua pursed his lips and finally bowed deeply to me. âMiss Nanxing, Iâm sorry. I apologize to you for everything that our Lin family has done to you. Iâm sorry.â
This was really rare.
I looked at him with disdain. Whatâs the meaning of this apology?
I ordered the guard behind me. âGo and untie Miss Linâs ropes.â
The guard replied with a âYesâ and untied Lin Nanâs ropes.
Lin Hua immediately went forward to check his sisterâs pulse. Mr. Li and I stood in the same spot without moving.
Lin Huaâs expression was very ugly. He called out softly again, âLin Nan? Lin Nan?â
Lin Nan did not make a sound.
Only then did Lin Hua step back. He said humbly to Mr. Li, âSir, please take a look at my sister.â
Mr. Li looked at him and asked, âHowâs her pulse?â
Lin Huaâs eyes were red. He shook her head gently. âItâs extremely weak. Her life is at stake.â
Mr. Li went forward and carefully checked Lin Nanâs pulse. His expression was grave.
Lin Hua turned his head to look at me. Suddenly, he said, âMiss Nanxing, why does the phoenix blood turn from medicine to poison after being used twice? I canât figure it out no matter how much I think about it. Can you please enlighten me?â
His words finally sounded a little human.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
I smiled sweetly at him. âThis reasoning is actually very simple. The first time she used my blood, I gave it to her voluntarily. Although I didnât like her at that time, I thought she was a good person. Therefore, I used my blood to save her.
âHowever, the second time, I was forced to give you the Phoenix Blood. You used my friendâs life to threaten me. I had no choice. At that time, it was impossible for me to say that I didnât have any resentment towards you. So, you see, under two different circumstances, my blood had different effects. Thatâs why Tong Zhuo and his father couldnât recover even after using so much of my blood.â
I was just spouting nonsense. I didnât expect Lin Huaâs expression to change from disbelief to shock to sudden realization.
He believed me.
I couldnât help but feel very pleased.
After Mr. Li finished checking her pulse, Lin Hua asked anxiously, âHow is it? Do you have a way to treat her?â
Mr. Li glanced at me and said, âI can treat her, but Iâll have to beg for Nanxingâs to give us her Phoenix Blood again.â
Lin Hua kneeled in front of me. âMiss Nanxing, please be magnanimous. Please save my sisterâs life. Our Lin family will be eternally grateful.â
I donât need this cheap gratitude!
I looked at Mr. Li. My blood was already poisonous. I had no idea what he was planning. Could it be that he wants to fight poison with poison?
Mr. Li smiled at me. Looking at how confident he was, my heart calmed down. However, I said to Lin Hua, âI donât dare to accept the Lin familyâs thanks. Iâm just giving Mr. Li face.â
After saying that, I extended my arm to Mr. Li. âMr. Li, take as much as you need!â
Mr. Li slapped my hand away. âNow is not the time. You still have resentment in your heart. Itâs not suitable! Iâm going to give her an injection first. Sheâll be resting for a week. Mr. Lin, Iâll need your help too.â
Lin Hua hurriedly nodded. âIâll listen to Mr. Liâs orders!â
He was so different from before.
The Lin familyâs ability to bend like this really made me look at them in a new light.
