Chapter 413 The Cost of Helping Others for Joy
Situ Yan gritted his teeth and slammed the wine glass heavily on the table.
"Xin Yan, you’re getting bolder and bolder!"
"Yandi, I’m sorry..." Xin Yan lowered his head and said, "I was too worried about your health, and as Xia Xiaonuan was present at the time, I didn’t have a chance to discuss it with you..."
After saying that, Xin Yan slightly raised his head, looked at Situ Yan with a complicated expression, and weakly said, "I thought I did the right thing this time..."
"Right my ass!" Situ Yan gritted his teeth and smashed the cigarette end in his hand on Xin Yan’s head, "You idiot! If Xia Xiaonuan finds out I lied to her, will she still trust me? How will I face her in the future?!"
"Yandi! Why do you always think of that woman... I really don’t understand..."
"Shut up!"
"Or else, I... I’ll go explain to Miss Xia..."
Situ Yan propped his forehead with his hand.
His face darkened to the extreme.
Helplessly shaking his head.
"Let it go..."
Xin Yan: "..."
"Don’t get involved in this matter anymore."
"Yes, Yandi..."
...
Xia Xiaonuan was ready to be discharged after staying in the hospital for three days.
The doctor didn’t recommend her discharge, saying she was still very weak, but she knew it was actually because of the poison.
With the poison in her body, without the antidote, even if she stayed in the hospital for half a month, she wouldn’t get better! In the end, her whole body would rot and she’d die!
Instead of waiting for death, it’s better to take action.
As long as she didn’t completely fall out with Nangong Yaoling, it shouldn’t be too hard to get the antidote, right?
Thinking this, Xia Xiaonuan felt a weight lifted off her heart.
These nights, she kept dreaming about her body starting to rot from her fingers, then her toes, finally her whole body breaking out in many blisters, rotting bit by bit.
In the end, she’d wake up in a cold sweat, terrified.
These days were really hard to endure!
Moreover, she clearly felt her body getting worse, and her complexion wasn’t good either.
It must be the virus starting to take effect.
Xia Xiaonuan thought miserably, why was she so unlucky!
At the company, Yang Zi’er was eyeing her like a tiger; over here, a copycat version of Jiang Xue showed up, and now she was poisoned.
She was beset with problems both internal and external!
So fucking miserable!
People in time-travel stories usually end up in ancient times, becoming empresses, and making the emperor fall for them.
She time-traveled but ended up still in the modern times, living such a miserable life!
Other people walked into history when they time-traveled; she was still wandering around in the twenty-first century!
The problem is, she still hasn’t figured out what’s going on!
Oh, woe! Woe is me!
No way, she had to calm down!
When everything is a mess, the best way is to ignore it, and then tackle small issues one by one.
So, her top priority now was to get the antidote.
By the way, since Situ Yan had helped her so much, when she got the antidote, she should give him some too.
Thinking this, Xia Xiaonuan felt full of energy again.
Indeed, helping others not only is a virtue, but it also beautifies pain...
After all, thinking about how Situ Yan was even more poisoned than her, she felt much more balanced.
As he said, no matter what, even if they died, they could form a team together.
They wouldn’t be lonely on the Yellow Springs Road...
Xia Xiaonuan told Yun to pack up her luggage, and the two of them took a cab home.
On the way, Yun kept nagging, and Xia Xiaonuan didn’t listen to a word.
Then she thought, realizing something wasn’t right—she got poisoned to save Situ Yan!
Indeed, helping others comes at a cost...
