Looking at the captivating smile on Ji Qianqian’s face, Gu Ningyue felt that all her suffering over the past days had not been in vain.
As long as Ji Qianqian can live a normal life from now on, all her efforts will be worth it.
"Thanks to Miss Gu for Qianqian’s situation. If Miss Gu is available tomorrow, how about we go to a bar for a drink? I have so matters I would like to discuss with Miss Gu alone," Lu Qingqing said and then turned to Ling Tianyou: "And President Ling, those people outside the apartnt today must be your staff, right? You were considerate, and I will send a token of appreciation to your company tomorrow. Please, President Ling, accept it without disdain!"
Ling Tianyou looked at Lu Qingqing and said, "Since Miss Lu has said so, it would be impolite for to refuse."
Lu Qingqing smiled and said, "Shangguan Wuyue promised to start treating Qianqian tomorrow. I’ll co to pick up Qianqian at nine in the morning, and I’ll have to trouble
the two of you again."
"Ning Yue and I get up very early every day," Ling Tianyou said to Lu Qingqing: "How long will this treatnt take?"
Gu Ningyue also looked at Lu Qingqing. With Shangguan Wuyue’s dical skills, Ning Yue estimated that at most, detoxification would take just two days.
She had specifically checked the toxin in Ji Qianqian’s body, and it wasn’t on the top ten list of poisons.
Back when Shangguan Wuyue solved the most deadly toxin listed at number one, it only took him three days.
Because of this, Shangguan Wuyue beca famous, transforming from a little-known wandering physician to a renowned one.
"Shangguan Wuyue said, two days!" Lu Qingqing looked at Gu Ningyue and said: "Shangguan Wuyue ntioned needing so preparations; otherwise, he could treat Qianqian tomorrow."
Gu Ningyue was curious: "Preparation? Shangguan Wuyue should have prepared your antidote long ago, shouldn’t he? It’s unlikely it needs preparation again."
Ling Tianyou, upon hearing this, seed puzzled: "How do you know?"
Could it be Xia Yingbai told Gu Ningyue? But last ti, when Gu Ningyue showed him the conversation, there was nothing unusual.
Gu Ningyue chuckled: "Shangguan Wuyue is not a simple character; when he made his demands to , he already had the antidote ready. What he needs to prepare is certainly unrelated to your antidote."
"Why are you so sure?" Lu Qingqing was a bit perplexed.
Gu Ningyue shrugged: "It seems you’re not very familiar with Shangguan Wuyue. He has an inexplicable obsession with detoxification, such as the poison in Qianqian, which he’s likely already researched and developed the antidote."
Lu Qingqing was stunned: "Then what does he need to prepare?"
Gu Ningyue pondered for a mont: "Probably preparing sothing for Jin Chenglong! Tomorrow, when you go, you can use the opportunity to win Shangguan Wuyue’s favor. It’ll be easier to approach him in the future."
Lu Qingqing, upon hearing this, revealed a smile, "Yes, it’s indeed Jin Chenglong. I specifically asked about Jin Chenglong’s whereabouts when I returned, but Shangguan Wuyue didn’t tell anything useful. He only said Jin Chenglong had left and that he would help treat Ji Qianqian tomorrow."
Gu Ningyue nodded, "There’s absolutely no way Jin Chenglong could leave so peacefully today; nine out of ten, Shangguan Wuyue did sothing. Let’s see tomorrow! Tonight is probably his final deadline."
Lu Qingqing chuckled: "Even if he truly dies, it’s deserved. He has done so many shaful things, even killed his own brother; it’s about ti he faces retribution!"
Gu Ningyue was sowhat surprised: "How did you know it was him?"
"If I don’t even know this bit of information, how could I continue in City A?" Lu Qingqing flashed a beautiful smile, "Tomorrow at eight, I’ll co to pick up Qianqian. During this period, I trouble President Ling and Miss Gu."
Gu Ningyue shook her head, exchanged a few polite words with Lu Qingqing, and then saw him out.
When leaving, Ji Qianqian lingered outside the door with Lu Qingqing, speaking for quite a while before finally letting him leave.
Gu Ningyue vaguely heard Lu Qingqing teasing Ji Qianqian: "Aren’t you getting along well with your Sister Ning Yue? Why are you holding onto and not letting go?"
Ji Qianqian’s voice was low, and Gu Ningyue didn’t catch it clearly, but judging from Ji Qianqian’s expression, she looked pitifully pulling on Lu Qingqing’s arm, appearing incredibly aggrieved.
Gu Ningyue nudged Ling Tianyou with her elbow: "Don’t you think Qianqian looks just like a little wife at this mont?"
Gu Ningyue hadn’t ntioned it yet, but after she did, Ling Tianyou also felt it was sowhat like that.
"If you could act coquettish to like Qianqian, I’d agree to anything you say." Ling Tianyou remained silent for a mont, and then suddenly said.
Gu Ningyue turned her head to look at Ling Tianyou: "Keep dreaming! In dreams, anything is possible."
Wanting her to be like Ji Qianqian, how could that be possible? It’s just wishful thinking.
Ling Tianyou wrapped an arm around Gu Ningyue’s waist, leaned close to her ear, and said leisurely: "Do you believe I could make you plead with like that?"
Gu Ningyue’s face turned rosy, she imdiately turned away to look at Ling Tianyou: "Not with the child around! Careful what you say!"
Ling Tianyou laughed heartily, released Gu Ningyue’s waist as Ji Qianqian finally returned: "Very soon, Ji Qianqian won’t be a child anymore. If she becos soone else, would you feel sad?"
Gu Ningyue shrugged, and softly said: "No. People change."
Moreover, this is what she owed to Ji Qianqian.
If it hadn’t been for her removing Lin Ruixian’s Blood Jade for curse-breaking, perhaps her illness would have healed long ago.
"Sister, Qingqing left." Ji Qianqian looked at Gu Ningyue with a pitiful face: "She seems mad at ."
Gu Ningyue chuckled, stretching a hand to rub Ji Qianqian’s soft long hair: "No way, your Sister Qingqing wouldn’t get mad at our sweet Qianqian, you are so well-behaved."
Ji Qianqian shook her head, gazing at Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou: "Just now, Qianqian said sothing wrong, Sister Qingqing must not want to talk to anymore."
"That’s not true." Gu Ningyue took Ji Qianqian’s hand and walked towards the villa: "Later I’ll call your Sister Qingqing, persuade her not to be angry with you!"
Ji Qianqian replied in a soft voice, finally no longer feeling down after Gu Ningyue’s reassurance.
Watching Ji Qianqian, Gu Ningyue still felt sowhat envious of her knack for being only briefly sad.
Uncertain if the toxin in her body had altered her personality, or if she’d inherently always been this way.
Sitting in the living room for a while, Gu Ningyue coaxed Ji Qianqian back to her room, then turned to Ling Tianyou: "Do you think... how will Jin Chenglong die tomorrow?"
Ling Tianyou smiled slightly and said to Gu Ningyue: "However he dies, it should be quite tragic!"
