“Poisoned?!”
Su Yingxue’s heart had skipped a beat. She quickly pushed through the crowd and rushed to Lin Sisi’s bedside.
She had held Lin Sisi’s hand and felt her pulse. Then, she looked at Lin Sisi’s expression and widened her eyes. “Sisi, how could this be…”
Such a powerful poison had been Saint Ruan’s doing…
But why would Saint Ruan poison her?
“Dr. Su, I… Was I going to die?” Lin Sisi’s eyes had been filled with sorrow. She had been like a man who bled but did not cry. At that moment, her eyes had been filled with fear.
Su Yingxue held her hand tightly, giving her strength and support. “Don’t worry. With me around, you definitely won’t die!”
She wouldn’t die!
Su Yingxue hadn’t let Lin Sisi die!
Su Yingxue had thrown the medicine box on the table and had begun to prepare the medicine.
Lin Aotian had roared until his face had been red. He had ignored his old illness and had rushed to Su Yingxue’s side. “Dr. Su, you could save Sisi, right? Those imperial physicians were all trash! When they had come, they had said that Sisi’s poison had already reached her lungs and that she couldn’t be saved! But your medical skills were superb. 1 had known that you could save her!”
Su Yingxue’s expression had been cold and dark, and her red lips had been tightly pursed into a line.
She hadn’t answered Lin Aotian, but her hands had trembled slightly.
As time passed, Lin Sisi’s breathing had become weaker and weaker. Chu Jinling had held her hand tightly and had said to her, “Sisi, don’t fall asleep! Open your eyes and look at me! 1… I’m so good-looking! If you close your eyes, you won’t be able to see!”
“I… I can’t bear it either!” Lin Sisi had reached out to hug him.
She had liked him and hadn’t been able to bear closing her eyes. She hadn’t been able to bear leaving him!
“Dr. Su, Genius Doctor Su! Hurry up! Sisi can’t hold on much longer!”
Lin Aotian, who had been on the battlefield without even frowning, had been so anxious that his eyes had been red, and tears had kept rolling in his eyes.
An hour later, Su Yingxue had finally finished concocting the medicine.
However, she hadn’t been in a hurry to give Lin Sisi the antidote. Instead, she had told Lin Aotian with a heavy expression, “To detoxify Sisi, other than this antidote, there is one more thing that needs to be done. You guys…Are you willing?”
“What else was there to be unwilling about? Saving lives was more important!”
In Lin Aotian’s eyes, his daughter’s life had been more important than the sky!
In Chu Jinling’s arms, Lin Sisi hadn’t been able to open her eyes.
He had put down Lin Sisi and had snatched the medicine from Su Yingxue’s hands. “It’s too late, give it to her!”
“Ninth Prince! Cautious! This medicine…It will force all the poison onto her face, and then…”
“Then what? Sisi! Sisi, wake up!”
Chu Jinling had been about to break down. He had looked at Su Yingxue with red eyes. “No matter what! I wanted Sisi alive! She can’t die!”
Su Yingxue had taken a deep breath. Her heart had ached as if someone had punched her. “She would wake up after drinking this medicine. However, within six hours, I had to cut open her face and let out the poisonous blood. Otherwise, there would be no way to save her.”
“What was it? Cut open her face?”
Chu Jinling had been stunned. His lips had trembled. “Why…” Why must you be so cruel!”
How important was a woman’s appearance?
“This… Why was this so? My daughter… Why does my daughter have to suffer like this? Dr. Su, is there no other way?”
Lin Aotian’s heart had ached.
Of course, his daughter’s life had been important!
But this had been too cruel for a girl like her!
Su Yingxue had bitten her lip. “There’s no other way.”
If she wanted to live, she had to be disfigured!
