"Yang Cheng, what are you doing? Let go of my mom!"
Ye Ling’Er shouted, wanting to rush in to stop him.
"Don’t co over! If you stop now, it’ll all be for nothing!"
Yang Cheng gritted his teeth and shouted, then concentrated, gathering True Qi in the palm of his hand, placing it over Ye Xixue’s chest.
The soft and smooth touch made the evil fire within Yang Cheng grow increasingly intense.
Ye Ling’Er moved a little closer and imdiately noticed Yang Cheng’s particularly prominent position, blushing in embarrassnt, she cursed, "You scoundrel! How can you have improper thoughts about my mom?"
At this point, Yang Cheng had no ti to explain. After confirming the injection of True Qi into Ye Xixue’s body, he exhaled a turbid breath and released her hand.
"Miss Ye, any normal man would have a reaction in such a situation."
Yang Cheng explained helplessly.
At this mont, Ye Xixue slowly regained consciousness from her pain. Seeing herself disheveled and drenched in fragrant sweat, she quickly dressed, covering up most of the exposed skin.
Despite undergoing extre agony just now, she clearly felt her head ease up significantly, unlike before when it always felt like splitting pain, making it impossible for her to think calmly.
"Yang Cheng, is my mom okay for now?"
Ye Ling’Er asked anxiously.
Yang Cheng nodded, "She won’t have headaches for now, but she might still experience coughing and chest tightness. She needs to maintain emotional stability, and once the Spiritual Essence Pill forms, I’ll help detoxify her."
"Thank you very much."
Ye Xixue felt much more comfortable, sincerely grateful to Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng’s expression grew sowhat grave; during the acupuncture treatnt, he discovered sothing peculiar about Ye Xixue’s internal poison; it seed like the toxin had been directly placed into her body.
Even stranger was a weird force within her, restraining the toxin, which explained why she hadn’t succumbed to the poison in two years.
He was baffled by how Ye Xixue got poisoned in the first place.
As he was pondering, Ye Ling’Er spoke up, "Yang Cheng, let my mother rest, I’ll take you outside."
Yang Cheng nodded, just about to leave when he suddenly rembered sothing and asked, "Madam Ye, you know my father, Yang Feng, right?"
Ye Xixue nodded, "Of course I do, turns out you’re Yang Feng’s son."
"Back then, my father signed a bet agreent, and the company went bankrupt due to certain matters. I want to ask how much you know about this? Did he really have to pay twelve billion for losing the bet agreent?"
Yang Cheng inquired.
Naturally, he’d repay his father’s debt, but not blindly; so things needed clear investigation.
Ye Xixue thought for a mont, shook her head, "Since my poisoning, Jiulong Mountain Villa’s affairs have been managed by Murong Hai; it’s Murong Hai who signed the agreent with your father. I only found out they signed a bet agreent after your father disappeared, but according to the contract, your father indeed owed Jiulong Mountain Villa twelve billion."
She started Jiulong Mountain Villa as a woman back then, to avoid attracting attention to herself, she’d let her assistant Murong Hai socialize on her behalf.
Murong Hai was supposed to be a front for her business, but now seed intent on replacing her.
A decisive glint crossed Ye Xixue’s beautiful eyes. Now Jiulong Mountain Villa held unrivaled status in Peach Blossom. Once she recovered, Murong Hai’s substitute position ought to end.
"Madam Ye, since the contract was signed by my father, I won’t renege on it. I’ll repay the twelve billion, but it’s a large amount, I need ti."
Yang Cheng spoke earnestly.
"No hurry."
Ye Xixue responded gently. Though not involved in the bet agreent mostly, she could guess Murong Hai did so questionable deeds.
"After the company went bankrupt, my father disappeared, do you know of any leads?"
Holding hope in his heart, Yang Cheng asked, since Jiulong Mountain Villa was so vast, maybe Ye Xixue knew sothing useful.
"I don’t know. I’ve only t Yang Feng but haven’t really interacted."
Ye Xixue shook her head.
Yang Cheng was sowhat disappointed, but also anticipated this outco.
"Rest well, I’ll take my leave now."
Ye Ling’Er escorted him and Chu Xiaoyu to the door, watched the Land Rover drive away, then turned and left.
Just as she entered, she ran into Murong Hai.
"Ling’Er, is your mother still upset with ? I know I was wrong, just got montarily confused trying to save so money for Jiulong Mountain Villa. I won’t do it again."
Murong Hai wore a cheerful face, seemingly remorseful.
Ye Ling’Er spoke earnestly, "Uncle Murong, two years ago my mom entrusted Jiulong Mountain Villa to you to manage because she trusted you. She repeatedly advised you not to ruin Jiulong Mountain Villa’s reputation over petty gains, but you just wouldn’t listen."
"You knew well how ill my mom was and should’ve shared her burdens, but instead you angered her, causing her sickness."
If not for Murong Hai’s long-standing companionship with her mom, she wouldn’t be so tolerant.
Murong Hai nodded repeatedly, his eyes turned, he feigned concern asking, "It’s all my fault, causing her illness. How is she now? Should we take her to the hospital?"
"No need, Yang Cheng already gave her acupuncture, stabilizing the condition."
"What? Condition stabilized?"
Murong Hai blurted out surprised.
"Yes! Yang Cheng’s dical skills are remarkable."
Ye Ling’Er remained unaware of anything wrong, recalling Yang Cheng brought a slight smile to her lips.
Murong Hai rembered Ye Ling’Er preventing him from killing Yang Cheng and cautiously asked, "So, earlier you stopped from killing Yang Cheng because of your mother’s illness too?"
"Yes! There were too many people at the ti, couldn’t say directly. Yang Cheng is the one I invited to refine Spiritual Essence Pill, now only the Spiritual Essence Pill can detoxify my mom."
"Has the dicine Pill been refined?"
Murong Hai continued probing.
"Spiritual Essence Pill isn’t easy to refine, but he already created the Elixir Embryo and placed it within my abdon, where it absorbs human Essence Qi, finally condensing into the Spiritual Essence Pill, after which my mom’s toxin can be expelled."
Ye Ling’Er unconsciously stroked her abdon, eager for the Spiritual Essence Pill to form quickly.
Upon hearing this, Murong Hai felt as though struck by lightning, almost gasping, he clenched his fists tightly to calm down.
"That... that’s wonderful!"
He feigned happiness, hiding venomous intent in his eyes.
This little bitch actually found soone who can refine Spiritual Essence Pill and even has an elixir embryo, if Ye Xixue’s toxin gets neutralized, how would he control her, occupy Jiulong Mountain Villa?
The plan was barely one step away, now suddenly a wrench in the works!
Murong Hai disoriented, bid farewell to Ye Ling’Er, hurriedly returned to his room, contemplating how to break the deadlock.
He couldn’t let Ye Xixue be detoxified, hence must sabotage the Elixir Embryo within Ye Ling’Er.
