Chapter 47 No Saving
Sun Youde added a neutral agent, but the toxicity of the failed fusion is unknown. Just looking at the agent's pungent appearance and smell, it's not something to be trifled with.
Having been forcibly given the drug, Sun Youde was terrified.
Even though he struggled desperately, it was no use; Bai Wu forced him to drink it all.
"Cough cough cough..." Sun Youde felt a burning pain in his throat, and his stomach was churning.
"You...you...I am a certified top-level physician by the Xia Kingdom Medical Association, and I have a medal of honor. How dare you harm me like this!" He pointed angrily at Xiao Chen and Bai Wu, staggering as he spoke.
"If you're willing to gamble, you must accept the consequences. Don't be shameless," Xiao Chen said coldly.
The request was made by Sun Youde himself, but now that he's being asked to fulfill the bet, he's become defensive.
“I…I’m going to report you to the Medical Association!” Sun Youde said angrily.
Honorary physicians in the Xia Kingdom are protected by special privileges, and harming an honorary physician is a serious crime.
"Sue me if you want," Xiao Chen said nonchalantly.
Sun Youde felt unbearable abdominal pain and let out a painful howl.
"You won't die, but it'll be enough to teach you a lesson," Xiao Chen said calmly. "There are always people better than you. Even a top-level physician can't be too far ahead. If you don't have self-respect in the future, you probably won't be able to survive in the medical field."
"As for becoming my apprentice, there's no need. Someone like you isn't good enough for me."
Sun Youde was so angry he almost vomited blood.
He, a top-level physician, was looked down upon even as an apprentice...
This is a tremendous insult!
"Walk."
Xiao Chen didn't even bother to look at the Xia family members and walked out.
"You...you can't leave!" He Qin blocked the doorway.
She desperately wanted the recipe for the Youth Pill.
Even though she had already gotten a youth pill from Xia Liuli, she was still not satisfied.
A youth pill only lasts for ten years; what she wants is to stay young forever.
Xiao Chen looked indifferently at her face, which had become much younger, and revealed a cold smile.
"Judging by the time, it's about time, Ms. He. How's your old face?" he said meaningfully.
"What did you say?" He Qin stared, very angry.
"I look at least ten years younger, and you're saying I look old?"
"Snatching what belongs to one's own daughter, even if it brings her youth, it means losing one's morals. No matter how beautiful she is, she is still ugly," Xiao Chen mocked.
“Don’t talk nonsense! My daughter gave it to me willingly!” He Qin shouted.
Xiao Chen chuckled softly.
"If it's not yours, you can't have it even if you snatch it. Do you really think my Youth Pill is so delicious?" His expression turned cold.
He Qin was about to curse when she suddenly felt a burning pain on her face.
"what……"
She couldn't help but let out a scream.
The Xia family members all looked at her with horror.
At this moment, her youthful face looked as if it had been corroded by sulfuric acid, and it was rotting...
"Wife, your face!" The Xia family patriarch pointed at her in alarm.
"My face... what happened to my face..." He Qin rubbed the festering skin on her face, utterly horrified.
"Aaaaaah..." she let out a heart-wrenching scream of pain.
Everyone was stunned.
In a short while, He Qin's face became ferocious and terrifying, as if it had been burned and disfigured.
He Qin stumbled to the edge of the flower bed and saw a mangled face reflected in the water. She screamed in terror again.
"How could my face have become like this? My beauty!" He Qin was in a state of frenzy, unable to calm down.
The pain didn't matter; what mattered was her youthful beauty.
Not only is it gone, but it has also completely disfigured me!
Which woman who loves beauty could accept this?
"Didn't I take the youth pill? How could this happen?" He Qin was completely bewildered.
"Master Sun, please take a look quickly! See if there's any way to save it!" the Xia family patriarch said hurriedly.
Sun Youde endured the abdominal pain and went over to take a look, his brows furrowed.
"I'm sorry, I can't figure out the cause, and I have no way to treat it," he said helplessly.
"Master, is there any way to save my face!" He Qin cried out as if grasping at a straw.
Sun Youde shook his head, and He Qin felt as if she had been struck by lightning, collapsing to the ground.
Soon, she glared at Xiao Chen with resentment.
"What kind of poison did you give me?!" He Qin roared.
"Xiao Chen, what's going on?" Xia Liuli asked anxiously.
Xiao Chen said indifferently, "The Youth Pill is a fusion of thirty-six substances with conflicting medicinal properties. If not used properly, it is inherently dangerous."
"People of different ages have very different bodily functions and cellular activity levels. Therefore, there are two versions of the Youth Pill: one for the young generation and one for the middle-aged and elderly. The older version is just as effective for young people, but if the middle-aged and elderly take the younger version, it will be highly toxic!"
Xiao Chen's words shocked everyone present.
I've never heard of any medicine being so special; if you take the wrong version, it can be highly poisonous...
"Ms. He, you're too old. You rashly took the younger version, and this result is entirely your own fault," Xiao Chen mocked.
He Qin was both alarmed and furious upon hearing this.
"Why...why didn't you say so sooner?" she snapped.
"Because I never imagined that someone would be so shameless as to morally blackmail their own daughter and take away her precious possessions." Xiao Chen's words left He Qin speechless.
“Xiao Chen…you must have a solution…right?” Xia Liuli asked hesitantly.
“Of course.” Xiao Chen nodded.
"Then hurry up and save them!" the Xia family shouted anxiously.
"Why should I save you?" Xiao Chen's face was icy and indifferent.
How dare the Xia family ask him for help after treating him like this?
“Aren’t you close to Xia Liuli? That’s her biological mother. How can you just stand by and watch her die?” said a member of the Xia family.
"One thing at a time," Xiao Chen said indifferently. "Besides, you won't die, you'll just be disfigured."
Upon hearing this, He Qin let out another miserable scream.
"I don't want to be disfigured! I can't be disfigured! Liuli, my good daughter, please let him save me!" she pleaded with Xia Liuli.
Xia Liuli sighed.
This is her own mother; she can't just ignore her.
"Xiao Chen, what if I ask you for help?" she asked humbly.
Xiao Chen glanced at her, said nothing, and simply shook his head expressionlessly.
Xia Liuli is Xia Liuli, and the Xia family is the Xia family.
No man dislikes beauty.
However, the Xia family had repeatedly made things difficult for him, and he would not repay evil with kindness. In order to please Xia Liuli, he simply wiped the slate clean.
Having lived a second life, Xiao Chen had long since abandoned his indecisive romantic attachments and had his own principles.
Xia Liuli's expression was gloomy, and her disappointment was hard to hide.
"Let me see you out," she said.
Ignoring the Xia family's words, she led Xiao Chen out of the Xiao family compound.
Xiao Chen didn't explain anything. As for Xia Liuli's attitude in the future, that was her prerogative.
“Xiao Chen, I don’t blame you,” Xia Liuli suddenly said. “The Xia family treated you so badly, your behavior is understandable.”
Xiao Chen looked surprised, not expecting her to say such a thing.
“It was the Xia family that went too far first. I have no right to morally blackmail you, nor do I have the face to force you to forgive and forget and rescue my mother,” Xia Liuli continued.
"From now on, we'll still be friends."
Xiao Chen was completely surprised, and his understanding of Xia Liuli was completely refreshed.
Such a woman is a rare find in the world.
In her previous life, she was driven to her death by that scoundrel Xiao Yichen; she was truly a beautiful woman with a tragic fate.
"Thank you for your understanding," Xiao Chen smiled.
The two nodded to each other and said goodbye.
Sitting in the car, Xiao Chen suddenly chuckled.
“I’ve suddenly become interested in Xia Liuli,” he said.
……
After returning to the courtyard, Xia Liuli immediately began to take remedial action and stabilize her mother's condition.
But He Qin pushed her away in disgust.
“I don’t have a daughter like you! Get out!” she roared.
"Xia Liuli, you don't even help your own mother, and you actually let the Xiao family's abandoned son leave. What right do you have to be her daughter?" the Xia family patriarch said angrily.
"You traitor! What kind of member of the Xia family are you? If it weren't for your engagement to Xiao Yichen, I would have expelled you from the Xia family right now!"
Xia Liuli looked up and was met with cold, indifferent gazes, and all she heard were reproaches and resentments.
She lowered her gaze, her heart filled with sorrow.
"Perhaps, it really is time for a change in my life..."
