Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Back then, Miss Xie’s poison had already penetrated deep into her bones. Even if our old man went, there was nothing he could do.”
Qin Zhou paused. His old man was known as the Ghost Doctor. As long as the person was still breathing, he could save them.
But with Xie Zhinian’s poison, he was helpless and could only watch her body gradually become weaker as the days passed.
“But don’t worry too much. Ever since Miss Xie passed away, the old man has been studying how to cure this poison day and night. More than twenty years have passed, perhaps he has already developed an antidote.”
Ye Beisheng’s mind was in a mess. When she was young, she had followed her grandfather everywhere. She had heard that her grandfather had tried to save someone but failed. He had lived in guilt for more than twenty years.
If Huo Xiting was poisoned with the same thing…
Suddenly, her phone rang. She looked down and saw that it was Lin Long.
“Madam, where are you? The Ninth Master…”
Lin Long’s tone was particularly sad, and Ye Beishen’s heart tightened. “What happened to Huo Shiting?
Lin Long wiped away his nonexistent tears. “The Ninth Master was actually accidentally stained with sulfuric acid when he saved you but he refused to apply the medication…”
When Ye Beisheng heard that, she stood up abruptly and wanted to leave. “He’s not getting treated?”
“That’s right! Please come back and persuade him.”
Lin Long was like a little drama queen, working especially hard for his salary. “The Ninth Master is allergic to anesthesia and I can’t use anesthesia when trying to clean the wound. It really hurts my soul to see him in pain…”
Ye Beisheng didn’t delay any longer. She informed Qin Zhou and hurried back.
Qin Zhou’s fingertips paused.
Why did he feel that the poisoned ‘friend’ that Xiao Wu mentioned was Huo Xiting?
In fact, he did think that Huo Xiting was a good man to be Little Five’s husband.
But his identity…
Based on the relationship between the old man and Miss Xie, would the old man agree?
Xiao Wu respected her grandfather the most. Qin Zhou was afraid that she would be caught in the middle of a major dilemma.
Misty Mountain Villa.
Lin Long’s face lit up with joy. “Ninth Master, it’s settled! It’s settled. Madam will be back soon!””
Huo Xiting closed his eyes and replied softly. “en.”
The light around four or five o’clock in the afternoon was not dazzling, but his eyes hurt.
When he opened his eyes, it was all gray, as if everything was covered in a layer of fog.
He could see Lin Long waving his hands and talking excitedly in front of him, but he couldn’t see his face clearly.
Huo Xiting tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingertips. His eyes were probably really tired.
When Ye Beisheng rushed back to the Misty Mountain Villa, the sun had already set. She saw Huo Xiting resting on the sofa with his eyes closed. Lin Long and Uncle Zhang were nowhere to be found. There were countless lights lit in the living room and it was so bright that it looked like there was daylight.
Ye Beisheng stepped lightly and quietly approached Huo Xiting.
What happened? Wasn’t he splashed with sulfuric acid? Why couldn’t she see any wounds on his body?
And what was he doing here? Sleeping? It was as expected of the Ninth Master. He could fall asleep with the lights on so brightly.
But why was his face so pale…
Ye Beisheng suddenly thought of Qin Zhou’s words and her heart skipped a beat. Huo Xiting couldn’t be blind now, could he?
She hurriedly went forward and said anxiously, “Huo….”
The man opened his eyes. “You’re finally back? I thought Mrs. Huo’s heart was
elsewhere and you couldn’t find your way home?”
Ye Beisheng was speechless.
The familiar tone, the familiar voice, and that familiar dog!
She looked into his eyes. They were clear and did not show any signs of sleepiness. It seemed that he was just teasing her! Huo Xiting rolled his eyes slightly, and his eyes hurt..
