âAlthough my abilities are limited, itâs not difficult for me to bring a person with Ying. However, if Madam Bai canât bear to part with your son, then I wonât force you.â
If MO Ruyue wanted to find a âwhite mouse,â it was not Bai Shiyuanâs job. The disaster area was so big that it was impossible that they could not even find a person who had accidentally eaten the strain.
However, in this case, she had to move now. After all, compared to a personâs life, there was a larger group of people waiting for her to save.
MO Ruyue had never thought that there would be a day when she would appear in this world as a savior. This was simply a huge irony for her former identity as an assassin.
âNo, donât misunderstand, Lady Qin. I donât mean to not believe you!â
Madam Bai understood MO Ruyueâs intention to leave. She was afraid of being misunderstood and hurriedly explained.
âIâm just afraid that Yuan âEr will be a burden to the two of you. He only has a chance of survival if heâs by your side.â
Although she was indeed very worried about Bai Shiyuanâs safety, it was only out of her maternal instincts and not because she did not trust MO Ruyue.
In her opinion, if there was any illness that even MO Ruyue could not cure, then she really could only prepare for her funeral.
âThen weâll be on our way now. Just give me a carriage. I donât need anyone
MO Ruyue wanted to leave the Bai familyâs line of sight. Of course, he couldnât let Madam Bai send any guards to follow her, so why would she leave?
âAlright, Iâll arrange for someone to make the preparations.â
Madam Bai did not hesitate this time. She did not even ask when the two of them would return or whether they should continue to wait.
âMadam Bai, no matter what the result of this trip is, we will be back within two days, because there are more people waiting for us in the south.â
Although MO Ruyueâs words were very cold, she knew very well that once it was proven that the unused jade beads were useful to the fungus, she could even return on the same day.
Soon, Bai Shiyuan, who had just settled down, was loaded into the carriage again. However, this time, the carriage was decorated extremely warmly and comfortably. Even in the extremely cold wilderness, the people in the carriage would not freeze to death.
Gu Ying became the coachman again. His big black horse was tied to the back of the carriage, and it galloped towards the place where Bai Shiyuan and the others were found.
âMadam, should we quietly follow?
A maidservant came over and whispered in Madam Baiâs ear.
âNo! Once Lady Qin finds out that weâve been following her, we can forget about getting her trust and repairing our relationship.â
Madam Bai immediately rejected the suggestion.
She knew MO Ruyueâs personality very well. It was not easy to be so close to her, but to destroy this trust, she only needed a single impulsive thought.
âDonât mention such things in the future. Whoever makes such a suggestion again will leave the Bai family on their own!â
Madam Bai scolded sternly, warning everyone who had their own thoughts.
Although it was a time of turmoil and peopleâs hearts were unstable, it didnât mean that the Bai familyâs roots were gone. She was still here, and her daughter was still here.
Master Bai and Bai Shiyuan were not dead yet, so it was still too early for some people to jump out.
The maidservant who had made the suggestion just now blushed. After listening to the reprimand, she left in a hurry.
âMother, your room, it has become disloyal. It seems that the previous cleaning was not enough.â
Although Bai Shijiao was still young, it did not mean that she was immature.
With the Bai familyâs background, there was no such thing as a pure and innocent girl.
Even before she was ten years old, Madam Bai had begun to teach her how to manage the household affairs. She had even learned it according to the standards of a first-rank wife.
So now, she could infer a lot of things just by listening and watching.
âI heard that your second brother is dying. Heâs that personâs precious, and if heâs really gone, itâs hard to say how crazy sheâll become.â
âThe test just now was only the first step. You just wait and see, she will try her best to sow discord between us and Lady Qin.â
Madam Bai had expected this to happen, but Madam An had always been cautious and meticulous. Especially at this time, if she wanted to take revenge, she had to hide herself for the longest time.
âMother, some people seem to be overconfident and have forgotten what time it is. Unusual times call for unusual things. I hope she hasnât forgotten this saying.â
Bai Shijiao laughed coldly, a sharp iciness that did not belong to someone of her age already appearing in her eyes.
A natural disaster had changed many things. Her father and brother had fallen one after another, which was the fundamental reason that had forced her to grow up quickly.
Gu Ying stopped the carriage at the place where he found Bai Shiyuan. MO Ruyue summoned two giant wolves and placed them around the carriage to guard it.
The horse pulling the carriage was so frightened by the strong smell of the wolf that its legs went weak and it did not dare to run away.
Just in case, MO Ruyue switched out the two big black horses and tied the original horse to the back of the carriage.
In this way, even if they were still frightened by the wolf in the end, they were not as strong as the big black horse and could not drag the carriage away at all.
After making the preparations, MO Ruyue and Gu Ying both entered the space.
After adjusting the time last time, MO Ruyue didnât reset it. So when they entered, it was daytime outside, but it was already late at night when they returned to the space.
Gu Ying glanced at MO Ruyue without saying anything and didnât expose her thoughts.
When a person is at a dead end, the more you try to pull, the deeper he will hide.
He would never force MO Ruyue to make a choice because no matter what she chose, even if it was wrong, he would follow her to the end without hesitation.
The two of them entered the laboratory together. This time, when the strain was placed on the jade plate on the experiment table, and when Gu Ying took out another jade bead, a magical scene happened.
The originally fresh bacteria strains began to wither at a visible rate, and the originally clear beads also began to have a wisp of substance.
âLook, Ying. This bead can affect the growth of the bacteria, but it can only wither it. This is a good thing, but what should we do to a patient who has already eaten it by mistake? Do we have to roll the bead in his stomach?â
Although MO Ruyue seemed to be self-deprecating, in the next second, she really let Gu Ying walk to Bai Shiyuan with the bead.
The bead rolled around Bai Shiyuanâs stomach, and a thunderous sound was heard from his stomach.
No way!
The two of them looked at each other and took a few steps back almost at the same time.
âSo youâre saying that this kind of huge crisis needs you and me to manually operate it?â
After a long while, MO Ruyue and Gu Ying cleaned up the scene together.
Bai Shiyuan had long been washed and stripped clean, and had changed into a set of clean clothes.
The laboratory had also undergone three rounds of disinfection, but MO Ruyue still felt that there was a faint stench lingering in the air.
âDonât tell the young master about this. Thereâs nothing much to say anyway.â
Although MO Ruyue was facing a huge crisis, she had a way to solve it completely. It was just that this method made her feel that everything seemed to be a huge irony, or like a prank by someone.
âBing âEr, as long as this matter can be solved, thatâs all that matters. As for how far you can go, we havenât done it yet, so who knows?â
As usual, Gu Ying played the role of a âcaring big brother,â which made MO Ruyue burst out laughing.
âYing, why do I feel that youâre less of an assassin than I am? Youâre more suitable for the role of a psychiatrist.â
âIf you need it, I can do it too..â
