Ding Huizhu was determined to support Xie Ziyuan and naturally didn't want to wrong her in every way.

She grabbed Xie Ziyuan's hand and said with a smile, "Zian is so thoughtful. You're going to the hotel in a car like this today, you're sure to be the center of attention. Come on, let's go see the jewelry I ordered for you!"

Xie Ziyuan was extremely pleased and nodded in agreement.

On the other side, driver Uncle Wang was calling Xie Li.

"Madam came to the garage today and saw your Rolls-Royce Phantom..."

Actually, Xie Li winning the lottery was originally a good thing. Uncle Wang felt that in any ordinary family, the enlightened parents would let their children handle the matter themselves.

However, Ding Huizhu was very unhappy about the Tesla at the time, and seemed to disapprove of her children's extravagant lifestyle.

Furthermore, he specifically ordered Xie Li to only take the bus and subway to school from now on.

This led to Butler Wu and Uncle Wang working together to keep Xie Li's winning of a limited-edition luxury car worth tens of millions of yuan a secret, and they haven't told Ding Huizhu about it yet.

This may well have been a way of keeping an eye on Ding Huizhu.

After all, Madam Shen had given Xie Li a check, and Ding Huizhu had later subtly inquired whether the servants had seen it in Xie Li's room.

It's no wonder Butler Wu was suspicious; Ding Huizhu's favoritism was just too obvious.

Xie Li didn't care much. So what if she saw it? Anyway, she and Ding Huizhu had already distanced themselves from each other.

Uncle Wang didn't ask any more questions. He knew Xie Li was busy and didn't want to bother her, so he hung up the phone.

Afterwards, she happily slipped away to the garage to give the car a thorough cleaning and detailing, making sure that Xie Li would be stunning when he appeared in this car tonight.

Xishan Sanatorium, the private alchemy room of Old Master Xie.

The alchemy process had reached a critical stage. Xie Li didn't even eat the breakfast that Pharmacist Chen brought him, and continued to guard the furnace, waiting for the final product.

Pharmacist Chen came over to check on the progress and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Xie Ziyuan's prediction was correct; in the early hours of the morning, the dormant toxin launched a frenzied counterattack.

If it weren't for the heart-protecting soup, I'm afraid I wouldn't have made it through the night.

Even so, Old Master Xie suffered greatly, his body was severely depleted, and after a whole night of tossing and turning, he fell into a deep sleep at dawn.

Doing it again would be extremely dangerous, as much of the damage to the body would be irreversible, which is not good.

Seeing Xie Li's progress, Pharmacist Chen was no longer so worried. After all, the sooner the toxins were removed, the sooner he would recover.

Just then, a servant rushed over to report that Xie Ziyuan had arrived again!

Pharmacist Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he almost ran back to the ward—inside the ward, Xie Ziyuan was sitting in front of the bed, while Old Master Xie lay there oblivious.

In that instant, Pharmacist Chen stepped forward almost fiercely and blocked Xie Ziyuan's outstretched hand.

Xie Ziyuan was stunned for a moment. Even with her well-cultivated composure, she couldn't help but show a hint of displeasure at this moment.

—Why does Pharmacist Chen treat her like a monster? She's here to save Old Master Xie!

Even if she had her own selfish motives for saving Grandpa Xie, it was still from the bottom of her heart.

Xie Ziyuan slowly stood up, her face devoid of its usual gentleness: "Pharmacist Chen, what do you mean by this?"

Only then did Pharmacist Chen notice Wu Jiang standing to the side, realizing he had been somewhat out of line. He composed himself slightly and said gently but firmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Ziyuan, but we shouldn't trouble ourselves with two doctors. We will cure the old man's poison ourselves."
