Chapter Two Continued,
...
"Qin Fang! Qin Fang..."
Just as the thought crossed Qin Fang's mind, an urgent voice reached his ears, interrupting his train of thought, and made him involuntarily frown.
Being interrupted like this while deep in thought would put anyone in a bad mood because such a small interruption could an missing an important opportunity, which was truly regrettable.
"What do you want?"
Looking at Luo Xi approaching, Qin Fang asked with great displeasure, his tone quite unfriendly, which also reflected his current mood.
If it had been any normal ti, Luo Xi would have responded with a kick to anyone who spoke to her like that, but this ti, her reaction was sowhat strange, she just frowned and didn't react too violently.
But her facial expression betrayed her feelings at the mont—anxious! Sad! Desperate!
"Qin Fang, you know about the poison in my grandfather's system, so you must have a way to detoxify it, right?"
By then, Luo Xi was also desperate, her usually strong character had completely collapsed, and her pretty face was tear-streaked, making her seem like a fragile girl, not the cold, violent policewoman from the night before.
Just now, the Wu Family held a family eting at the main house, where almost everyone qualified to make decisions was present, even Wu Chi Wu Hai, who seldom took part in family affairs, had co.
Wu Ming reported this new situation to everyone present and also clearly stated that apart from his injuries, Old Master Wu had another most fatal affliction—the poison of Five Poisons Powder.
The mont everyone heard the term Five Poisons Powder, their faces changed drastically.
Those standing there were all mbers of the Martial World, and they were all very fearful of the infamous poison of the Five Poisons Powder, but it never crossed their minds that such a deadly poison would fall upon their teacher, father, grandfather...
Luo Xi was also present, and as soon as she heard Five Poisons Powder, she collapsed utterly.
Without a doubt, she was a very strong girl, and the biggest influence on her character as she grew up wasn't her father Luo Youheng, but her grandfather, Old Master Wu.
Like Cai Qing, she was also brought up by Old Master Wu, and her talent wasn't bad either; Old Master Wu was a person of extre integrity and strength, which was evident from the fact that he managed to hold on till now despite the severe poisoning and injuries. Influenced by such a man, Luo Xi's character was also very strong.
Even her aggressive and domineering behavior was very similar to that of Old Master Wu.
Qin Fang should know that Luo Xi had suffered a loss at his hands last night, even being groped inappropriately, yet she only sought revenge through violence, rather than reacting with shyness or tears like other won...
"No!"
Luo Xi was looking at Qin Fang with a face full of hope, wishing that Qin Fang would nod, but unfortunately, his answer was still a denial; he truly had no way to detoxify.
He did have an idea just now, but it was only a thought of his own, and he planned to study the pet that had just hatched, hoping to get so clues from it that might indeed work.
Unfortunately, before he could take action, his train of thought was interrupted by Luo Xi's shout.
"You..."
Luo Xi's face turned from shocked to angry.
She had sincerely asked Qin Fang for help, but his attitude made her feel as if there was resentnt in Qin Fang's heart.
She wasn't a brainless woman, and imdiately thinking about what happened last night, she figured Qin Fang must hold a grudge against her for it, and that's why he was behaving this way.
"Qin Fang, about last night, I was wrong. I sincerely apologize to you! I'm sorry..."
Luo Xi was capable of being humble. Although she felt so anger inside, the safety of her grandfather, Old Master Wu, was more important, so she imdiately apologized to Qin Fang.
"Uh... this..."
Qin Fang was even more surprised; after last night's incident, Luo Xi's hatred for him was extrely intense. Seeing her again today, the animosity was almost sky-high. But unexpectedly, in no ti at all, Luo Xi seed like a completely different person.
She was not only enduring Qin Fang's attitude but also apologizing so ekly and pleadingly!
Qin Fang fully understood that it wasn't because of his personal charm, but because Luo Xi was very concerned about Old Master Wu's safety. Old Master Wu had been poisoned by Five Poisons Powder, which Qin Fang had discovered, and he had even drawn out so poison, suggesting he might have a way to treat it.
She knew she couldn't force him; that wasn't the Wu Family way, and she certainly couldn't coerce him, as it could lead to a detrintal outco for everyone involved, especially the Wu Family.
This was why Luo Xi humbled herself and earnestly asked for Qin Fang's help, even if it ant forgetting last night's events.
"Wait a minute... First, let ask you sothing!"
If it hadn't been for the ntion of last night, Qin Fang may really have forgotten about it, but now that it was brought up, it all ca back to him.
