The second time was much easier. Without saying a word, He Yunxiao threw the small piece of medicinal herb into his mouth. He swallowed it in one gulp and immediately used his internal energy to enhance the herb's efficacy.
He Yunxiao could clearly tell that this medicinal herb was different from the last one, and that it was effective.
Seeing that He Yunxiao didn't look relaxed, Meng Qingrou asked, "How are you feeling?"
He Yunxiao said, "I'm a little dizzy, but otherwise I'm fine."
Meng Qingrou nodded and wrote down the medicinal herb. She noted it as an effective herb for He Yunxiao.
Afterwards, Meng Qingrou continued to cut small pieces from other large medicinal herbs, which He Yunxiao continued to take and catalyze. Soon, they figured out roughly which types of medicinal herbs were effective for He Yunxiao and which were ineffective.

Knowing that He Yunxiao's immediate explanation after the joke was well-intentioned, Meng Qingrou suppressed the pain in her chest, forced a smile, and responded to He Yunxiao's kind explanation.
She said, "It's okay, this time it won't count as you lying to me."
After speaking, Meng Qingrou suddenly realized that she was clearly unhappy because of her wound, but she pretended to be happy to respond to He Yunxiao's kind explanation. Wasn't that also a kind of deception?
