Chapter 1044 Give him the antidote
It’s not me. The three words were already on the tip of Huang Ying’s tongue, but she suddenly realized something and swallowed them back.
Now that things have come to this, there is no need to deny it any longer.
And she came here just to bring him the antidote.
Her silence was equivalent to giving Li Cheng a completely affirmative answer.
Li Cheng's pupils contracted violently for a moment, and his expression became extremely terrifying.
No matter what, he never thought that Huang Ying would actually do such a thing.
Even though there was a connection and entanglement between them, even though she hated him, his parents had never treated her unfairly.
How could she be so "sad"! "Antidote!"
Now he no longer wanted to waste any more words with her.
Huang Ying's hands hung at her sides, clenched into fists.
Especially at such moments, she couldn't be timid.
"The antidote is indeed with me, and I came here just to give it to Uncle Li."
She held her head high and spoke as if it was a matter of course, as if she was not the one who poisoned the person.
Li Cheng's eyes were fixed on her face, and he felt extremely disgusted.
In the past twenty years, until this moment, he finally saw her clearly! "I can give you the antidote, but you have to promise me one thing."
Sure enough, the next moment, Huang Ying changed the subject.
"What do you want me to promise you?"
Li Cheng spoke almost every word, trying hard to suppress his rage and urge to beat her.
Huang Ying pursed her lips and hesitated a little, but after a few seconds, she finally spoke.
"Brother Cheng, you know, I have always liked you over the years, so you can definitely do what I say."
Li Cheng just stared at her without saying a word.
Huang Ying blushed before she even opened her mouth, "I want you to marry me!"
"impossible!"
Before she even finished her words, Li Cheng's voice of rejection rang out.
And extremely cold and heartless.
Huang Ying's face looked extremely ugly. Didn't he even consider it?
Do you have to embarrass her like this? ! "Can you ignore Uncle Li's life and death for Ye Yao?"
Originally before meeting him, her plan was to give him the antidote without mentioning anything else, and gain his forgiveness, as long as he would not pursue the issue of her poisoning him.
But what he just said really irritated her, causing her tone to become sharp.
Because of anger, the blue veins on Li Cheng's forehead began to throb.
He finally understood Huang Ying's purpose now. It turned out that she wanted to force him to be with her...
He certainly couldn't ignore his father's life or death, but he would never let her control him.
"What if I don't agree?"
Huang Ying breathed quickly and took a step forward, closing the distance between them.
"I didn't ask you to do anything unscrupulous, like burning, killing, looting, or anything like that. Is it so hard for you to accept being with me?"
They grew up together, were childhood sweethearts, and had a very good relationship. Everything changed until the moment Ye Yao appeared.
"You didn't make me do those things, but you made me stay with someone who wanted to poison my father."
Li Cheng's cold voice refuted her with what she had done.
Huang Ying was speechless.
She had never been his match in this matter.
Tensions immediately mounted between the two of them.
Huang Ying took a few deep breaths and forced herself to stay calm.
She absolutely could not let Li Guoxiong die, so she had to give the antidote to him no matter what.
But she was really unwilling to give it to him like this.
"Okay! Then I can make another concession. As long as you promise not to marry Ye Yao, I will give you the antidote."
In her opinion, this was already a very "friendly" exchange for him.
She had three "chances", so each time she just had to force him to give in...
“That’s impossible!”
But what she didn't expect was that Li Cheng still refused resolutely.
"Huang Ying, I know what you are thinking. I will not trade my marriage and feelings for anything.
Even if the antidote was obtained in this way, if my father knew it, he would definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life.
But I can promise you that I will do something for you in the future that does not go against my conscience and morality.
Either you give me the antidote right now, or I will call the police and have them come and get the antidote for you!"
Li Cheng said it directly, leaving her no room for maneuver.
Huang Ying opened her mouth, and angry words were already on the tip of her tongue.
If we fall out now, we will never be able to accomplish anything later.
The voice that suddenly popped up in her mind brought her back to her senses in time.
Even though she had made up her mind, she did not agree to him immediately.
The two of them remained in a stalemate in the alley for three or four minutes, and finally she seemed to have accepted her fate.
"Okay, please remember your promise to me today!"
"Where's the antidote?"
Li Cheng didn't say a word to her, because she knew very well what kind of person he was. He would definitely do what he promised.
Huang Ying somewhat "reluctantly" took out the antidote from her pocket and handed it to Li Cheng.
"Dissolve the powder in warm water and let Uncle Li drink it. He will be fine soon."
Li Cheng directly handed over the powder without even doubting the authenticity of the antidote.
Because his father's condition is already very bad. If she really wants his life, there is no need to do such a thing.
Without stopping for even a second, Li Cheng turned around and left.
Huang Ying froze in place, looking at his back as he left, and suddenly felt very unwilling.
"Brother Li, I don't really want to harm Uncle Li. I just want you to look at me straight in the eye and take me seriously."
The only response she got was Li Chen's ruthless back as he left, and his footsteps without even a hint of stopping.
Soon Huang Ying was the only one left in the alley.
After a moment, she wiped the sweat from her palms and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly. She was completely different from when she faced Li Cheng just now.
She thought that after Li Cheng knew the truth, he would be angry with her and even beat her up.
She had even prepared herself mentally.
But I didn't expect that things would be completed so "easily" and "smoothly".
Although Li Cheng did not agree to her first two conditions, he finally had to compromise with her. This was the first time in these days.
It seems that Ye Xinxin's plan can indeed succeed.
Next, she just needed to wait patiently until Li Cheng and Shen Yun became completely ill.
By that time, Li Cheng would no longer have room to bargain with her...
