Gu Qingxue quickly retracted her thoughts. She did not want Rong Zhan to see through her thoughts, so her hands were extremely agile. She drew the five test tubes worth of blood from him in one go before she finally pulled out the needle for him.
She quickly put the test tubes filled with blood and the tools for drawing blood into the space of the research room, Gu Qingxue then untied the handkerchief. “Young Master, the poison in your body is very complicated. I need seven days to study your blood before I can make a judgment and determine the method of detoxification. Please wait patiently.”
“Don’t tell anyone about what happened today. If you dare to play any tricks, I guarantee your head will fall to the ground.” Rong Zhan’s gaze was as cold as a sharp blade, warning Gu Qingxue.
Gu Qingxue felt a chill down her spine. She was very sure that the person in front of her was not joking with her.
As expected, those who came from the prince regent’s manor were not to be trifled with.
However, she could only endure it for the sake of obtaining 10,000 points!
“Young Master, don’t worry. I will take my leave.” Gu Qingxue smiled slightly and slowly left the room.
Rong Zhan looked at Gu Qingxue’s departing figure and said thoughtfully, “Liu Yi.”
“Master.”Liuyi stepped into the room and bowed to Rong Zhan.
“Tell Ji Yan to bring the worry-relieving grass back to Jing City. Also, keep an eye on her. Don’t let her play any tricks. Report to me what she says and does.” Rong Zhan said coldly and stood up, he watched the handkerchief fall from his body.
Gu Qingxue had only untied the handkerchief, but she was stopped by a look from Rong Zhan and forgot to take it away.
Liu Yi quickly went forward, picked up the handkerchief, and was about to throw it away.
His master had never liked women, and this Gu Qingxue was bold enough to leave this thing behind.
However, before Liu Yi could throw the handkerchief away, Rong Zhan reached out his hand naturally.
Liu Yi looked at Rong Zhan’s open palm in shock.
Liu Yi could not believe it and put the handkerchief into Rong Zhan’s hand with trembling hands.
The handkerchief made of silk was not a valuable thing, but Rong Zhan liked it unexpectedly.
Seeing his master leave with the handkerchief, Liu Yi raised his hand to wipe away the cold sweat on his forehead in fear.
Was it going to rain red? What was Gu Qingxue’s background that made his master treat her differently?
Liu Yi did not dare to think about it. He left quickly and went to do what he was told.
On the other side, Gu Qingxue brought along the precious medicinal herbs rewarded by the Yamen, silk, and satin, and rode a carriage with Huang Rongfa back to an medicine workshop. Huang Rongfa still had a look of disbelief on his face even after they entered the main door of an medicine workshop.
“Shopkeeper Huang, I don’t need some of these medicinal herbs. Please help me sell them. As for these silks and satin, I’ll only keep a portion of it. I’ll have to trouble the shopkeeper to help me sell the rest.” Gu Qingxue acted as if nothing had happened, after taking stock of today’s harvest, she divided the items into two groups and left two sets of good satin for each of the three cubs, waiting to be cut into new clothes for them in the spring.
“Lady Gu, you… You’re too bold! You actually dared to snatch things from the prince regent’s manor. You even dared to ask for a reward after snatching it. You… What should I say about you?” Huang Rongfa felt terrified just thinking about it!
“Nowadays, it’s common for the timid to starve to death, and the courageous to die at the most. Don’t worry, Shopkeeper Huang. I’ve already reached an agreement with that Young Master, and he won’t make things difficult for us. It’s getting late today, so I’ll go back first. From tomorrow onwards, I’ll be attending to patients.” Gu Qingxue was thinking about the blood drawn from Rong Zhan, she could not wait to hurry back and carry out the test.
Huang Rongfa was rendered speechless by Gu Qingxue’s words, and could only nod in agreement. He lent her the carriage from an medicine workshop and asked her to send the reward back to the courtyard house in Dafu Village.
