Qin Lan was subdued by her own Round Moon Revelry, so everything was under her control. For soone as competitive as Qin Lan, this was undoubtedly hard to accept.
Perhaps it was for this reason that Qin Lan wanted to deal with him. But all of this was Ling Zhenfei's speculation; the specifics still required Ling Zhenfei's confirmation.
Soon, Ling Zhenfei crossed the courtyard and reached the third courtyard, which was connected to a small hospital area.
Upon entering, Ling Zhenfei saw several doctors intensely discussing outside.
Ling Zhenfei's arrival imdiately caught their attention.
Among these people were both locals and foreigners, and they seed to be arguing vehently.
Any doctor likely knew Ling Zhenfei, and even so who didn't know him personally had heard his na.
"The Divine Doctor has arrived."
"It's truly Divine Doctor Ling Zhenfei."
A group of people surrounded him, and Ling Zhenfei glanced at them and said, "Tell , who is the attending physician?"
One person stepped forward and said, "Hello Mr. Ling, I am the person in charge of this treatnt."
Ling Zhenfei glanced at the na tag on this person's chest, which read Chief Physician You Qiang.
Ling Zhenfei asked, "What exactly is the patient's condition, what illness, what surgery was perford, and how is the situation now?"
You Qiang replied, "The situation is like this: it was the patient herself who requested the full blood transfusion, but after the transfusion, she unexpectedly beca unconscious, and sotis even experienced cardiac arrest."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Aren't you all renowned experts? Have you figured out what the illness is?"
You Qiang said, "We analyzed that it's a post-transfusion rejection reaction, caused by complications."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Never mind, I'll go in and take a look myself. What's the situation now?"
You Qiang said, "She's in here. Go and take a look; we have no other ways. The patient's condition is extrely dire."
Ling Zhenfei entered the ward, where various instrunts and dications were the only things present other than Qin Lan.
Ling Zhenfei asked everyone to leave so that he was the only one left in the room, besides Qin Lan on the bed.
Qin Lan lay on the bed, her face extrely pale. But as they ntioned the dical condition earlier, Ling Zhenfei had already ford his own conclusions in his mind.
But all of this was still just his own analysis.
Ling Zhenfei pressed Qin Lan's pulse with his hand, finding her condition very dangerous; her breathing was erratic, and her heartbeat was sotis frenetic, yet at other tis very calm, even stopping occasionally.
In this situation, Qin Lan could die at any mont. As long as her heart couldn't withstand the reciprocal impacts, eventually, it would stop altogether.
Ling Zhenfei first transferred so of his body's Northern Spiritual Energy to Qin Lan, protecting her heart at least temporarily, to save her life.
Then, Ling Zhenfei used more spiritual energy to suppress the frenzied aura within Qin Lan's body.
From what Ling Zhenfei could tell, this chaotic aura was very similar to a Round Moon Revelry episode. After so thought, Ling Zhenfei still gave Qin Lan an antidote for the Round Moon Revelry.
After taking the antidote, Ling Zhenfei also gave Qin Lan so Lianging Elixir.
Once everything was done, Ling Zhenfei sensed that the aura within Qin Lan's body had cald, her heartbeat had returned to normal, and her life began to stabilize.
Ling Zhenfei knew his judgnt was correct; Qin Lan's current state was entirely due to the effects of the Round Moon Revelry.
Ling Zhenfei took out his Silver Needle and pricked it twice on Qin Lan's head; Qin Lan let out a soft groan and then woke up.
"I feel terrible, just let die."
Ling Zhenfei chuckled softly, "If you really want to die, I can certainly make that happen."
Upon hearing Ling Zhenfei's voice, Qin Lan suddenly opened her eyes, her face shifting through at least five or six expressions in the instant she saw him.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Are you surprised to see ?"
Qin Lan nodded and said, "I am a bit surprised. Did you save ?"
Ling Zhenfei replied, "Who else in this world could save you but ?"
Qin Lan said, "Ling Zhenfei, stop pretending. All of this is because of you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in such a state."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "Qin Lan, I've never seen such a shaless woman like you. You got yourself into this ss, yet you're blaming . It's truly comical."
Qin Lan said, "Isn't that true? If you hadn't given that awful elixir, how could I have ended up needing a blood transfusion?"
Ling Zhenfei understood now; Qin Lan opted for the transfusion to cleanse the drug effects from her body.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Qin Lan, search your conscience and think: since we t, have I ever actively done anything to harm you?
It was you who calculated against every step of the way, even trying to kill , yet almost got killed in retaliation. If I'd killed you then, I wouldn't have felt guilty at all, because he who kills by the sword dies by it too.
So after that day, you regretted it, realizing you couldn't die. You then tried to break free from my control. That's understandable, but have you forgotten the oath you once swore?"
Qin Lan said, "What nonsense oath, I don't want any of that. I just want freedom.
Even though you supply with antidotes every few months, the Round Moon Revelry feels like a heavy shackle trapping my heart, causing nightmares every day.
I dread forgetting to take the antidote on the 15th of any month and fear running out of it without being able to find more. I set a row of alarms on the 14th each month to remind to take it on ti.
Do you know how much I'm suffering? Driven to insanity, why else would I believe Mr. Han's nonsense and agree to the blood transfusion surgery if not for the unbearable pain?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "Isn't this sothing you brought upon yourself? You tried to kill and chose agony over death.
Since you're in such pain, I ask you now, between death and suffering, what do you choose? If you choose death, fine. If I turn around and walk away, you will surely die.
If you choose to live, you'll have to endure this pain. Don't talk to about these conditions. While I, Ling Zhenfei, am kind-hearted, I am definitely not weak. Feel free to test my words."
Ling Zhenfei's words left Qin Lan stunned. To live or to die, that was the question.
Qin Lan was now a very successful businesswoman; her family's business was thriving.
With money, a career, and good looks, anyone would cling to life, yet this question lay starkly before her now.
