Villain: Starting as a Corrupt Tycoon's Wife

Page 108

[Could it be that brother is planning to switch from cultivating the Wind Spirit Technique to the Heavenly Wind Spirit Control Technique later?]

"We do have such plans."

The Blazing Sun Technique is good, even better than the modified Wind Spirit Technique, but it is still far inferior to a gold-quality technique, at least its potential is much lower.

[Hmph, you naughty brother! I kindly chose the best cultivation method for you, you can't change it!]

"I only had this idea, I didn't say I'd switch immediately." Ling Yun hugged the sleeping Liu Ye, a mischievous smile on his lips. "So, the Blazing Sun Technique also has a higher-level cultivation method?"

"Of course, it's much better than that lousy Heavenly Wind Spirit Control!"

"Okay, giving me a 0.1 discount isn't too much to ask, is it?"

【? 】

"There's no discount, and I have to spend a lot of points to redeem it. Shouldn't I get some kind of incentive?"

No, who is cultivating this?!

Xiao Ai was both amused and exasperated, but since she only had this one owner, she could only speak politely.

【Brother~ 0.1% off is really impossible, but I'll try my best to give you the best price so you won't feel the pinch when you buy it!】

"Alright, alright."

Ling Yun knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. If Xiao Ai really gave him a 0.1 discount, he would have to think carefully about whether this girl had dug a hole for him.

The next morning, everyone who woke up went to the restaurant to have breakfast.

"Su Jin! When did you arrive?"

Tao Yuting recognized Su Jin at a glance. Su Jin smiled and said, "I came last night. It was a bit late when I arrived, so I didn't say hello."

Tao Yuting sat down opposite her with a plate in her hand: "How is it? The environment here is pretty good, isn't it?"

"Oh, that's alright."

"Shall we go for a walk in the back mountain later? I heard the scenery there is great, and we're sure to get some good photos. It's going to get colder tomorrow, so it won't be appropriate to go any later."

"sure."

Su Jin, who enjoys exercising, readily agreed.

They were halfway through their meal when Ling Yun and Liu Ye finally arrived.

Looking at Liu Ye's rosy complexion, they all assumed that the Martial Alliance Leader had been enlightened by Ling Yun last night.

"President Su," Ling Yun stopped beside her desk, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Thanks to you, it's alright."

Ling Yun understood immediately, exchanged a few pleasantries with her, and then went to choose breakfast.

When he returned, Tao Yuting consciously sat down to the side so that he could face Su Jin.

Liu Ye went to Fang Muqing and Xiang Yao's table and discussed with them the methods and techniques for pleasing Ling Yun.

"We're planning to go for a walk in the back mountain later." Tao Yuting licked the soy milk from the corner of her lips, a gesture that looked very familiar to the young man.

"Can you take me with you?"

Su Jin did not object: "It will be relatively safer with more people."

"But it's no fun with too many people. How about just the three of us going?"

"also."

After the three finished breakfast, they told the other women, put on their winter clothes, and headed to the back of the mountain together.

The hotel has also leased this hillside, planning to transform it into a forest-themed amusement park.

A path has been built that allows pedestrians and cars to pass through.

The three of them walked together, chatting and laughing constantly.

"I never imagined you two were in a teacher-student relationship!"

Su Jin's red lips curved slightly, her beautiful eyes scanning the two of them intently.

"She's the type of woman who's older than her."

"Nonsense, I'm not old at all!"

Tao Yuting was very sensitive about her age, and immediately bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Yuting, the scenery here is quite nice. Why don't you and Chairman Ling stand a little closer? I'll take a picture of you two."

"Okay!"

Tao Yuting's expression changed instantly. She hugged Ling Yun's arm, a sweet smile on her face, and rested her head on his shoulder.

The young man smiled and looked at the camera, ready to capture this beautiful moment.

Su Jin took several photos, but she was still not satisfied. She moved her feet and unconsciously approached the roadside.

Suddenly, she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

Ling Yun lightly stepped on the ground and quickly rushed over, catching Su Jin before she fell to the ground.

"Are you okay?"

"No... Ouch, it seems like my hand is cut."

She frowned and raised her left hand.

A small cut was made on the back of her fair and delicate hand.

"It's nothing, just a small injury. I can wipe it with a tissue." Su Jin didn't make a fuss.

"This is no minor injury."

Ling Yun grabbed her small hand, straightened her up, and looked down at the culprit by the roadside.

"This is serrated hemp, and it's poisonous."

Chapter 176 Detoxification and Beauty Enhancement

"poisonous!?"

Su Jin's face turned pale, and she hurriedly squeezed the wound with her hands, trying to drain the toxins along with the blood.

"It's no use. Although the toxins in serrated hemp are not very harmful to the human body, they take effect very quickly."

What are the symptoms after poisoning?

Su Jin felt that she was really unlucky. Because it was cold outside, her whole body except for her face and hands was covered by clothes. She hadn't even fallen completely, but she was still scratched!

"It's nothing serious, just bumps all over my body that are painful and itchy. But if I scratch them, it might cause an infection."

Her face turned from white to pale, and she gripped Ling Yun's arm tightly with her small hands: "Chairman Ling, your medical skills are very impressive, can you help me?"

"I need to prepare some medicinal herbs, so I'll head back to the hotel first."

"it is good!"

Su Jin lost interest in taking pictures and was carried by Ling Yun down the mountain.

As for why Lingyun hugged her, it was because the young man told her that the more she moved, the faster the toxin would take effect.

No one could stand having their whole body covered in bumps, and Lingyun scared her so much that she didn't dare to move.

Tao Yuting followed behind them, feeling that the whole thing was strange.

The plant that Ling Yun had just called "serrated hemp" looked exactly like an ordinary nettle. Ling Yun had said the toxin would take effect very quickly, but he had deliberately slowed down and walked for several minutes without seeing anything strange on Su Jin's body.

Could this guy be deliberately lying to Su Jin in order to get closer to her?

Tao Yuting knows her man very well. Ling Yun is a highly skilled doctor; he even cured Bai Ning's cancer. Helping Su Jin detoxify should not be a problem for him.

But in terms of medical ethics... if the patient is a beautiful woman, then there's almost nothing to worry about.

Ling Yun escorted Su Jin to her hotel room, asking her assistant Qianqian to keep an eye on her while she returned to her room to prepare the antidote.

Tao Yuting followed him into the house and sat down in front of him to watch him prepare the medicine.

"What are you looking at? Do you want to learn too?"

Tao Yuting shook her head, took a few steps closer, glanced back at the door, and asked in a low, hoarse voice, "Hey, Lingyun, is Su Jin really poisoned?"

Ling Yun glanced at the time and nodded: "If you go to her room now, you should be able to see bumps on the back of her hand. In another half hour, they will spread to her entire arm."

"Really?"

"Of course I would lie to you, why would I?"

Tao Yuting blinked: "I thought you were just kidding her!"

"Come on, do I really need to do this?"

"Oh~"

Ling Yun frowned and pulled her into his arms: "What do you mean? Do you suspect that I deliberately tricked her and then did something bad?"

"Do you really think you'll let her go?"

"That's definitely not the case, but there's no need to use such methods; they're too easy to see through."

Tao Yuting suddenly realized: "So you deliberately slowed down so that she could personally experience the feeling of being poisoned, and thus wouldn't suspect your subsequent actions?"

"As expected of a teacher, you have a very quick mind."

"You're so naughty~" The beautiful teacher kissed him on the cheek. "So, you carried her down the mountain to show how considerate you are?"

"No, I just wanted to take advantage of the situation."

That's the thing about Lingyun; he can act like a scoundrel with complete confidence and righteousness.

The two were deeply in love inside the house, while Zhang Qianqian on the other end was almost in tears.

Many tiny bumps appeared on the back of Su Jin's hand and began to spread upwards along her arm!

Su Jin gritted her teeth, forcibly restraining herself from scratching, because scratching would cause infection, which would be uncomfortable and leave unsightly scars in the future.

"President Su, I'll go ask Chairman Ling right away how much longer he needs!"

"Don't!"

Su Jin stopped her: "It will definitely take him time to prepare the medicine, we can't rush it."

"Can……"

As her assistant, Zhang Qianqian's mind was entirely on Su Jin, and she became somewhat flustered in her anxiety.

Fortunately, Ling Yun soon came over with a pill.

"I'll help you detoxify after you eat it."

"Thank you."

Su Jin pulled her bumpy hand under the covers and took the medicine with her other hand.

After watching her take the medicine, Tao Yuting breathed a sigh of relief and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Su Jin. It's all my fault. If I hadn't called you to the back mountain, you wouldn't have had to suffer like this."

"To be honest, it was I who offered to take the photos for you."

"Let's put the responsibility aside for now." Ling Yun rolled up his sleeves. "Yu Ting, you take this person with you..."

"Qianqian," Tao Yuting whispered a reminder.

"Take Qianqian out first, I'll help President Su detox."

Zhang Qianqian asked, somewhat puzzled, "Do I have to go out too?"

“My detoxification method is a little different. If there are people around, the toxins may enter their bodies.”

After he said that, Zhang Qianqian had no reason to insist on staying, and had no choice but to leave the room with Tao Yuting.

After they left, Su Jin lifted the blanket, not caring about how unsightly it looked, and exposed her arms.

The toxins from the serrated hemp have spread to half of her forearm, and it looks a bit grotesque; anyone with trypophobia certainly wouldn't be able to stand it for more than a few seconds.

After taking the antidote pill, the bumps on her hands had improved considerably, and at least they weren't as itchy anymore.

Just as Tao Yuting thought, Ling Yun wanted to find a legitimate reason to take advantage of Su Jin. With his skills, a single, specially prepared antidote pill would be enough to treat this minor poison several times over, so there was no need for him to personally intervene.

Lingyun took her injured little hand and gently kissed her wound.
