Duan Tianhong and Bai Jing were stumped, Nianyang glanced at them with a faint smile, "I already said that once Uncle Luo takes my dicine, his complications will ease. Why do you keep blocking ? Don’t you want Uncle Luo to get better?"
Duan Tianhong and Bai Jing’s expressions imdiately changed, facing Nianyang’s bright eyes, feeling as if all their dark sches were completely seen through.
"Nianyang, don’t misunderstand. My partner and my cousin are just worried sick."
Luo Lanzhen intervened as a peacemaker; she didn’t want to see Nianyang in conflict with her family. Harmony was the best approach, though the innocent Lanzhen had no idea that her most trusted family wanted to kill her father.
Nianyang smiled silently, thinking how thoroughly Luo Lanzhen was fooled by Duan Tianhong and Bai Jing, just like the original protagonist’s past life, deceived by her own sister and fiancé, dying with unresolved grievances. Fortunately, heaven allowed her to co here to help the original protagonist live again and avenge.
Nianyang wasn’t soone who ddled in others’ business, but Luo Lanzhen was her only friend here besides Jiang Tian. Since she knew everything, naturally she would lend a hand.
Currently, Luo Lanzhen and Luo Song trusted Duan Tianhong and Bai Jing too much; to make them distrust those two, perhaps once Luo Song’s condition improved from taking the dicine and he trusted her dical skills, she could remind them!

While Nianyang was in the kitchen preparing dicine, Luo Lanzhen was taking care of Luo Song in his room. Using work as an excuse, Duan Tianhong went to the backyard to talk with Bai Jing.
"Tianhong, what do we do? How can Luo Lanzhen ask her classmate to treat Luo Song? What if he gets better? What will we do then?" Bai Jing was tense.
"Don’t panic; she’s just a high schooler. What does she know about treating diseases? Didn’t you notice she couldn’t even distinguish that Luo Song is being poisoned? So, she’s likely prescribing randomly. Perhaps after taking her dicine, we won’t need poisoning; he might just die directly from it."
Duan Tianhong displayed venomous intent, showing none of the gentle elegance he presented to Luo Lanzhen.
From a window not far away, Nianyang stood and clearly heard everything the two were discussing twenty ters away, her lips curled in cold disdain.
Luo Song took the dicine Nianyang prepared, imdiately feeling a bit better, thinking it might just be comforting illusions, not paying much attention. By nightfall, however, he was vomiting blood again, his usual daily symptom.
Seeing Luo Song vomiting blood, Bai Jing and Duan Tianhong were secretly pleased. Bai Jing blad Nianyang, "Didn’t you say your dicine will relieve Uncle Luo’s condition? Why’s he still vomiting blood? It’s even worse than before. You must’ve worsened his condition; it’s all your fault for insisting on prescribing!"
"Jingjing, you can’t speak about my friend like that!" Luo Lanzhen was a bit angry; Nianyang kindly helped her father, how could her cousin be so tactless!
Nianyang glanced coolly at Bai Jing, "I didn’t prescribe a miracle cure. Every dicine has a process; nothing takes imdiate effect upon consumption."
"Gu Nianyang’s words are right, Xiao Jing, you mustn’t speak nonsense. This dicine made feel very comfortable." Luo Song, who usually gasp for breath after vomiting blood, felt a sense of relief today, although he didn’t pay much attention.
"Dad felt well after taking the dicine? Then I’ll heat another bowl for you, there are two more doses tonight!" Luo Lanzhen was quite pleased, while Luo Song ruffled her hair and sighed gently. Having vomited blood for months, his body weakened further; he feared he wouldn’t survive.
Bai Jing and Duan Tianhong were secretly overjoyed; they were right about it—the dicine prescribed by Gu Nianyang made Luo Song vomit more blood. He might die in a couple of days.
That night, Luo Lanzhen stayed with Luo Song. As he looked at the ti before sleep, he knew his stomach would ache again in two hours, enduring a whole night of sleeplessness, hoping to catch two hours of rest.
But when he opened his eyes, the room was brightly lit by daylight.
It’s daylight already?
