"Quickly give the antidote to Helian Kang!"

The old man was probably furious, but his voice sounded quite strong at the moment.

"Why didn't Grandpa say that when Helian Kang switched Zhong Ran's medicine that day?"

In the cold night, there were hardly any stars.

But how wronged that boy, who was once more dazzling than the stars, must have felt.

He lost his father in early childhood and his mother in adolescence. His only playmate died in his arms. From childhood to adulthood, because of his grandfather, he diligently studied medicine, strictly disciplined himself, and grew up according to the plan and expectations his grandfather had for him.

But what exactly did he gain from all this?

Yes, in public, the old man was always proud of him, but in private, the hardships Helian Kang endured to study medicine could probably be as high as a mountain.

What truly tormented Helian Min was not the hardship of physical training.

Instead, it was the old man's gaze that always measured him by a higher standard. His mother's death made him feel his own incompetence, and the death of his best friend made him take all the responsibility upon himself.

No one ever asked him if he felt tired.

No one ever asked him if he wanted to stop and rest.

He was like the sun being chased, never stopping for a moment, and any slackening would result in severe punishment.

That's probably why the Helian family and the old man were so shocked and intolerant after he went mad.

My own existence has become a stain.

But why? Why?

Why is it that the truth is always on someone else's side?

Where were these people when Helian Kang was beating him?

Helian Kang wanted to harm An'an, so why didn't these people ask him anything?

Am I the one who did something wrong?

"Did you hear me? Quickly give the antidote to Helian Kang! Do you really want him dead?!"

The old man wasn't sure how far Helian Min would go, so he was a little anxious.

"Is this the only requirement?"

Helian Min wiped away the jumbled thoughts that had been swirling in her mind and asked this question calmly.

"What did you say?"

The old man didn't understand.

"What I mean is, is this your only request?"

Helian Min kept in mind the kindness of his grandfather in raising and teaching him, so on his way back to the Helian family, he had already decided that he could grant his grandfather one request.

However, this requirement did not include asking him to take over the Helian family voluntarily.

This time, the old man was only worried that Helian Min would make an irreparable mistake, so he didn't think about anything else and gave Helian Min a positive answer.

"Yes, what you need to do now is to get Helian Kang to take the antidote as soon as possible."

He actually carried such a deadly and dangerous thing with him, and Helian Kang couldn't even call him directly.

However, he woke up the entire Helian family in the dead of night.

The matter has escalated so much that he can't help but know about it, especially since it involves Helian Min.

It can be said that the appearance of the name Helian Min was what truly struck a nerve with the old man.

It's a pity that the old man, who had worked hard and been upright his whole life, never uttered a single gentle word.

If he had just changed his attitude towards Helian Min, Helian Min wouldn't be the way she is now.

"Okay, I understand."

Perhaps it was because the nighttime temperature was really cold, Helian Min felt like her blood was about to freeze.

Those red eyes gradually calmed down after hanging up the phone.

Helian Kang was able to make a phone call that reached the patriarch of the family. There's no reason why the patriarch wouldn't know why he wanted to kill Helian Kang.

Even so, even after they knew the truth, they were still just as generous to Helian Kang.

It was as if he hadn't made any mistakes.

Helian Min turned and walked back to the private room.

Leaning against the wall, paralyzed like a dog, Helian Kang smiled smugly when he saw Helian Min.

So what does Helian Min have to fight against me, and what makes her think she can beat me?

It's clear that Helian Kang is now completely displaying the demeanor of a victor.

However, now that she had reached the final exchange with the old man, Helian Min no longer cared about these things.

Besides.

A hint of disdain for bedbugs flashed across Helian Min's ethereal eyes.

Helian Kang thought he was safe, which is why he became so arrogant. Little did he know how effective his medicine really was.

The so-called antidote could only relieve his pain temporarily.

He could make some medicine specifically for her, medicine that could slowly torture her without taking her life.

"Give me the antidote, quickly, give me the antidote."

Helian Kang was getting a little anxious because Helian Min had been standing at the door for a long time without coming in.

At this point, his limbs were gradually losing their nerve reflexes, meaning that even if he wanted to move, he couldn't.

Ideally, Helian Kang should be rendered immobile for the rest of his life.

That way, he can't run out and harm people.

Helian Min took out a transparent box about the size of a thumb from her pocket, inside which was a miniature potion.

In front of Helian Kang, Helian Min placed the medicine on the ground at the entrance of the private room.
