Chapter 303: The power of truth-telling, overkill and underutilization
Bo Yiyan's expression became complicated when he saw the four exquisite metal gift boxes in front of him.
Over the years, many people have gone to great lengths to seek his medical help, including political figures and elites from prominent families. The gifts they gave him were either rare and precious herbs or bank cards with sums of millions.
This is the first time someone has ever brought him food.
The gift box in front of me was too exquisite. No matter how I looked at it, it didn't look like a handmade product. Could this woman have bought it from a newly opened pastry shop and lied to show her sincerity by saying that she made it herself?
How despicable! I was initially moved by the maternal glow she radiated when she kissed her child, which is why I decided to go with her to see the baby. I never expected her to be a woman who would lie to achieve her goals.
Zuo Shan felt the man beside her, whose originally kind demeanor had suddenly turned incredibly cold. He was clearly angry, but she couldn't understand why he was angry at all.
Could it be that they think the gift I gave them was too light?
But he's the school doctor, and Chen is a student. If a student gets injured, isn't it only natural for the school doctor to help treat the illness?
"Hehe, I was too presumptuous. It turns out that Dr. Bo really doesn't think much of my little gift. In that case, please tell me frankly, Dr. Bo, what kind of gift would catch your eye?" Zuo Shan's attitude instantly became polite but distant.
In fact, if Bo Yiyan hadn't arrived in time, she might have been tempted to use her time-reversal ability to protect her son from harm, even if it meant suffering severe backlash from the Heavenly Dao afterward.
Ke Bo appeared and asserted that A Chen's injuries could be healed, so she gave up using the Time Reversal technique.
At this point, however, he made it clear that he wanted more benefits, while she had missed the best opportunity to turn back time.
Because of this incredible ability, the shorter the interval between uses, the less effort is required, and at least 6 hours have passed since the incident.
“Look me in the eyes. Now, say it again: did you really make these pastries yourself?” Bo Yiyan stared intently into her eyes, the purple light in them gradually intensifying.
Zuo Shan felt somewhat dazed, but she was still very angry and couldn't help but shout:
You can question my appearance, you can question my intelligence, but you absolutely cannot question my cooking skills!
Let me tell you, I originally planned to use these boxes of pastries to bribe Achen's teacher, because I didn't want Achen to be punished by the teacher just because I didn't give a gift!
Do you understand what it means to be unfairly treated? A child will be treated unfairly, and their childhood, which should be happy and carefree, will become extremely unhappy!
Oh, right, and this snack box was designed and made by my little one himself. Isn't it beautiful?
And these snacks, each one is my own unique creation, you won't find the exact same ones anywhere else on the entire Green Algae Planet. If you don't believe me, go search online and see if you can buy them!
Hmph! If it weren't to thank you for saving Ah Chen, do you think I would have been willing to give you these boxes of pastries?
"You greedy bastard! If you want a kickback, just say so! Why are you complaining about my carefully made snacks? You've really hurt my feelings!"
After yelling for a while, as if to vent her anger, she opened a box of pastries, grabbed a piece, stuffed it into her mouth, chewed it up, and swallowed it.
While eating, he said, "You unlucky fellow, can you smell the aroma? Humph! I'll make you drool!"
Bo Yiyan, who was watching from the sidelines, was dumbfounded. He never expected that this woman would have such a rich inner world.
He actually only used a small part of his "truth-revealing" skill, which is another of his hidden superpowers. So far, everyone who has had this superpower used by him has either died or become a vegetable.
He must have been so angry tonight that he used it on such an unrelated woman, just to prove she was lying.
But as it turns out, she wasn't lying.
Of course, the truth did not make him happy, because the gift was not something she had prepared specifically for him; he just happened to be there, and she had no choice but to give him a gift that she had prepared for someone else.
However, the pastry she ate smelled really delicious!
Never mind, since she really made this herself, it doesn't count as deceiving him, so he'll accept it without hesitation.
The next second, his purple light receded and gradually faded. Zuo Shan woke up from his confusion and saw him putting several snack boxes into his spatial storage.
She always felt like she had forgotten something, but she couldn't remember it, so she had to put it aside for the time being.
In any case, Dr. Bo finally accepted the snacks she gave him, which was a way of expressing her gratitude, and she felt a little better.
If someone is kind to you, you can't just enjoy that kindness without giving anything in return. What's the difference between that and being an ingrate?
"You went to borrow books so late, what kind of books did you borrow?" Bo Yiyan felt that he had gone too far before, so he took the initiative to start a conversation.
"It's about detoxification. Ah Chen was poisoned this time and you just happened to appear in time, but what about next time? Who can guarantee that you'll be nearby?"
"So I want to learn some knowledge in this area and concoct some antidotes myself, so that I can solve problems on my own in the future," Zuo Shan said frankly.
"You studied medicine before?" Bo Yi asked.
"No." Zuo Shan shook his head.
"Then what makes you think that you can master the preparation of profound and complex antidotes with just basic knowledge?" Bo Yiyan said.
"I'm not sure if I can learn it, but whether I can or not, I should at least give it a try, right?" Zuo Shan said.
When Bo Yiyan heard these familiar words, another voice suddenly echoed in his mind: "Brother, don't give up. No matter if it works or not, you have to try. If you try your best, even if you don't succeed in the end, at least you won't regret it when you look back in the future."
His eyes welled up with tears, and long-buried memories resurfaced, with the vivid face in his memory always smiling brightly at him.
"Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's all my fault for being so useless and not being able to awaken my healing ability sooner."
I could only watch helplessly as you died before my eyes. It wasn't until the moment you lost your life that, under the intense stimulation of pain, my healing abilities awakened.
He repeated these words to himself for the nth time, knowing full well that they were meaningless and merely an expression of his deep regret.
“You’re right. Whether it works or not, we should give it a try.” Bo Yiyan finally composed himself and spoke softly.
