Li Ying solemnly accepted the box, feeling puzzled: "How did Master know I would encounter the Nan family?"
Tang Shimu didn't understand the reason either.
“I don’t understand either. When my master told me, I didn’t dare to ask.”
"Why didn't Master just give this to me?" Li Ying asked again.
"That's what I think too. When my master came to hand me over, he seemed to be in a hurry, and he was also in a hurry when he left."
Li Ying felt even more uneasy. Could it be that her master had encountered some trouble? Otherwise, why hadn't her master appeared for more than two years?
"Senior Brother, Master said he was going on a journey, did he say that himself?"
Tang Shimu thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes, he said it himself when he handed me this potion that day. Since then, Master has been traveling around and has never returned."
"Don't you find it strange? If he were really wandering around, it would be impossible for him to have no news of his master for so many years."
Tang Shimu's eyes widened: "Could it be that Master..."
"Wait, senior brother, I have another question. Does Master know anyone from the Nan family?"
That's the key point.
Knowing he could no longer hide it, the eldest brother finally spoke up: "Master's surname is not actually Qian. His surname is Nan. He was originally the eldest son of the second branch of the Nan family. The Nan family has been practicing medicine for generations, and Master's medical skills were the most superb. But later, I don't know what happened, Master changed his surname and left the Nan family. He wandered around and took us disciples as his disciples."
Li Ying never expected that her master had such a secret.
"Senior Brother, thank you for telling me all this."
"Junior Sister, the appearance of the Nan family in Shanghai is probably not a good thing. You must be careful. Senior Brother can't help you much right now, but if you need Senior Brother, I will do my best."
"Yes, thank you."
Li Ying returned to the clinic with the medicine and asked Leng Yi to invite Sang Zhi over.
After Sang Zhi arrived, Li Ying called her to the house in the backyard.
"This is a medicine?!"
Sang Zhi had seen it before. Ye Jingchi had gone to the front line despite knowing he was poisoned. She met a village doctor in a small village near the front line who gave her some medicine, and that was it.
Later, Sang Zhi recognized that the person who gave her the medicine was Aunt Jing. She never expected that the medicine would reappear.
"This was given to me by my eldest brother. My master left it to me, saying that if the Nan family appeared, I should give this to him. I've never quite understood how my master knew the Nan family would target me? And how he knew I would definitely end up with Ye Jingchi?"
These mysteries lingered in Li Ying's mind, refusing to leave.
Sang Zhi didn't understand either, and frowned: "Your master is too amazing, he actually predicted everything."
Li Ying sat down. She had previously felt that there was someone from the modern world like herself. Could this person be her master, someone who knew everything about this world and thus foresaw all of this?
The more Li Ying thought about it, the more she felt a cold sweat break out on her back. This kind of life, where everything was predictable, was terrifying.
The Jing family.
Leng Yan parked the car, stepped into the courtyard, and strode into the living room.
"Ayan, come to the restaurant and have dinner with me," Aunt Jing beckoned.
Leng Yan obediently walked into the restaurant and sat down in the seat to the left.
The table is laden with ingredients that look delicious.
“That bastard has moved directly to Li Ying’s clinic and won’t even come back to have dinner with me. Ayan, you are someone I raised myself, you won’t betray me, right?” Aunt Jing smiled with narrowed eyes.
“Aunt Jing, my life was given to me by you, and I, Leng Yan, will never betray you.”
"That's good, that's good. Thank goodness, I still have you."
Leng Yan picked up her rice bowl and ate with Aunt Jing.
After finishing her meal, Leng Yan stood up and said, "Auntie, there are still many documents at headquarters that need to be approved. I'll head back now."
"Go ahead." Aunt Jing put down her bowl and chopsticks.
Leng Yan strode out of the living room, walked out of the yard, and got into the car.
Leng Yan quickly turned the steering wheel, and drove the car not far from the Jing family's house. He jumped out of the car, ran to the side of the road and vomited until his stomach was about to come out. Leng Yan then collapsed on the side of the road, his face pale.
He had a natural ability to recognize poisons since he was a child. When he smelled drugs added to the food, he could only pretend to eat with Aunt Jing.
Aunt Jing targeted him only to control him with poison, not to prevent him from betraying her like Jing Chi.
That woman is a madwoman.
Lu Yufei's car just stopped, and Lu Yufei got out of the car and helped Leng Yan up: "What's wrong with you?"
"Get me to the hospital for a stomach lavage, quick!"
Lu Yufei helped Leng Yan into the car and drove away.
At the Jing family home, Aunt Jing sat on the sofa and asked Xiao Hui a question.
"So, how's Leng Yan doing now?"
"His car was on the road when he collapsed on the side of the road. It was Ms. Lu who took him to the hospital."
Aunt Jing sneered, "How ridiculous! He thinks sending him to the hospital will cure him? He doesn't know that this poison is incurable; only the Nan family knows how to cure it."
"Aunt Jing, do you need me to go see Leng Yan?" Xiao Hui asked.
"No need, let him come to me in person."
Li Ying opened the door, and Lu Yufei rushed in, grabbing Li Ying's wrist.
"Please, please save Leng Yan, he's been poisoned."
What?
Li Ying didn't have time to ask any questions and rushed to the hospital with Lu Yufei. When the doctor told her that only the Nan family could cure Leng Yan's poison, Li Ying remembered the antidote in the box.
What a coincidence!
What a coincidence!
The eldest brother had just given her the antidote when Leng Yan was poisoned.
Li Ying and Lu Yufei entered the ward together, while Leng Yan lay on the bed with a pale face.
Leng Yan, are you alright?
Leng Yan slowly opened her eyes: "It's alright, I threw up a lot, it's nothing serious."
“But the doctor said he was still poisoned, and the hospital doesn’t have an antidote for this poison.” Lu Yufei looked at Leng Yan with concern.
She said that Aunt Jing would definitely use extreme measures to make him cut the Gordian knot, but he still wanted to go back to the Jing family.
"I have the antidote. Wait a moment, I'll go back and get it."
After saying that, Li Ying turned and left the hospital. She hurriedly returned to the clinic, took out the medicine, and delivered it to the hospital.
Li Ying opened the medicine box and took out the medicine, but Leng Yan pressed her hand down.
"Li Ying, I can't use this medicine."
"Why?" Li Ying asked in surprise.
Leng Yan said weakly, "Aunt Jing has gone mad. Do you think she'll only target me? Let her live. I'm in good health and can handle it."
"Leng Yan, I must save you."
As Li Ying spoke, she opened the medicine bottle and drew it out with a syringe...
The Jing family will report everything they saw in a small meeting.
"Li Ying has already administered the medicine to Leng Yan."
Aunt Jing lightly painted her nails, and said with a sinister smile, "Li Ying will regret this. There's only one box of such precious medicine. If she gives it to Leng Yan, what will she give to Jing Chi?"
"Madam, do you really want to..."
Aunt Jing snorted: "I gave him his life, so he has to listen to me!"
