Chapter 246 - 246: Hearing What She Was Thinking
Huo Xiting didn’t answer. He almost fell into chaos.
When Ye Beisheng pushed the door open and entered, he did not react at all.
“Did my cousin tell you everything?” Lin Long asked cautiously.
Ye Beisheng nodded. Seeing Huo Xiting’s pale face and cold hands and feet, she asked, “What do you guys do every time he has an episode?”
“When the poison takes effect, we can only endure it every time. There’s no medicine, and there’s nothing we can do.” Lin Long said in a low voice.
Ye Beisheng caressed his eyes and could feel him trembling.
“Did Mrs. Huo poison him?”
“Who else could it be other than that old witch?! The first time that the Ninth Master had an attack when he was five years old. How old was he then? He was even locked in the basement by that old witch. If it wasn’t for the Ninth
Master’s firm will, he might have died at that time…”
Ye Beisheng closed her eyes, feeling both heartbroken and angry.
How could the Xie family ignore their daughter and grandson and let the Huo family ruin them?
Just for the sake of their laughable reputation, they have disregarded the lives of two people.
What’s more, Miss Xie was also poisoned. Could it be that Mrs. Huo was the one who poisoned her?
Was it really unrelated to the Xie family?
Lin Long sighed, “The old Xie master…. Who was the head of the family, He had been unconscious for a long time. The one in charge now was the would be
Miss Xie’s father. However, he had many illegitimate children and did not treat Miss Xie as his daughter at all.”
“Therefore, he will never care about the Ninth Master. Miss Xie’s death might have something to do with the Xie family.”
Ye Beisheng’s heart ached even more for them,
She thought that Huo Xiting would only have to face the Huo Family, but she didn’t expect that there would be the Xie Family.
The Xie family, who should have helped Huo Xiting to investigate the truth of Miss Xie’s death, became the executioner.
In fact, they were even more despicable!
Ye Beisheng stayed by Huo Xiting’s side. After Lin Long left, she quietly dug out the notes her grandfather had made.
Ye Beisheng first used the silver needles to relieve Huo Xiting’s pain, then flipped through the notes beside him.
The yellowed notebook paper was so fragile that it almost broke at the slightest touch. Ye Beisheng flipped through it carefully.
She suddenly saw it in his grandfather’s notebook from more than forty years ago.
The old man of the Xie family had found him and wanted him to treat the eight-year-old Miss Xie’s condition as well. The symptoms of the eye disease were the same as Huo Xiting’s, but his grandfather commented, [What a pity. If they have found me earlier, perhaps Miss Xie’s eyes could have been cured. Three years have passed, but it’s already too late…]
Ye Beisheng was startled.
So, Miss Xie and Huo Xiting were both poisoned when they were five years old!
Was there any special meaning to it?
Ye Beisheng looked at Huo Xiting’s tightly shut eyes and broke out in a cold sweat. She suddenly pursed her lips.
If she really couldn’t control the toxin, she had a way.
In fact, as the Ghost Doctor’s successor, she had always had a secret – her blood could detoxify poison.
She would never let anyone know about this secret in the past.
But Huo Xiting…
Ye Beisheng flipped the notebook to the page about using blood to detoxify the poison. After taking a look, she took out a dagger from her bag and cut her palm.
Fresh blood slowly flowed down his throat. When everything was done, Ye
Beisheng was so drowsy from the fragrance in the room that she fell asleep..
Therefore, she missed out a few words written at the end of the notebook: [Using blood to save people. After the rescued drinks the blood of the rescuer, they can hear the thoughts of the rescuer…]
The next morning.
Ye Beisheng rolled down from the sofa with a confused look on her face.
This place… This was the bamboo room, Huo Xiting’s bedroom.
Why was she sleeping on the sofa in the bamboo room??
She had done acupuncture for Huo Xiting last night and then fell asleep reading her grandfather’s notes. She didn’t expect to sleep until the next morning.
However, she remembered that she seemed to have slept next to Huo Xiting on the bed last night!
Why did she wake up on the sofa?
Ye Beisheng didn’t know what was going on, so she went downstairs and saw Huo Xiting sitting on the sofa drinking tea.
She thought to herself that this man was really carefree. She was exhausted since last night, but he was so carefree early in the morning. What a dog! Unexpectedly, Huo Xiting suddenly raised his head after hearing a voice in his head..
