Chapter 681: Do Not Doubt the Use of People

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ouyang Jinguo, who had studied medicine in the past, had been curious about the Banxia for a long time. He had even studied it for a period of time before his mother passed it on to Huo Wanting.

When the Banxia was shriveled, it was like an ordinary magnolia flower. However, once it was roasted over a fire, it would emit a distant fragrance. A person could smell it and even have a clear mind.

However, the Nine-Tailed Snake was extremely afraid of the smell. Even now, he would never forget its terrified appearance.

However, he really didn’t know where it came from.

“That flower was passed down from generation to generation by the mistress of the house. I’m afraid that even my mother doesn’t know where it came from. However, there is one thing. Other than the generations of the mistress of the house, others don’t know about the existence of the Banxia.”

“You’re saying that even Ouyang Tian doesn’t know about it?”

“Yes, other than my mother, no one else knows about it. This is a rule of the Ouyang family. Ouyang Tian knows that my mother has something, but he also knows that it definitely has something to do with the Nine-Tailed Snake. Naturally, he won’t ask about it. Therefore, the existence of this flower is probably the same as the Nine-Tailed Snake and the Suoyin Flower Tears. It has been passed down for a thousand years.”

“Passed down for a thousand years?”

“Yes, it’s even more precious than the Suoyin flower and the Suoyin Flower Tears because there’s only one of it in this world. Therefore, if you have the Banxia, I think it’s not impossible to detoxify the Suoyin Flower Tears.”

“Has Professor studied the Suoyin Flower Tears?”

“Sigh, I’m ashamed. Although I love medicine, I still don’t know much about the Suoyin Flower Tears. However, from the looks of it, it doesn’t seem to have much of an effect.”

Shen Xiaoxiao smiled and took out the research data on the Suoyin Flower Tears from the drawer, as well as the report on reducing cell vitality.

These things were nothing more than a report to Shen Xiaoxiao, but to a medical fanatic like Ouyang Jinguo, they were the most precious treasures in the world.

“I see. The combination of Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine can actually come to this conclusion. Reducing cell vitality is similar to muscle weakness?”

He was indeed a well-known medical professor.

“Take this information back and study it slowly. In addition, if you need it, you can take my blood sample.”

Ouyang Jinguo was stunned. Shen Xiaoxiao was willing to take out a blood sample?

“Xiaoxiao, are you willing?”

“Professor’s name is well-known all over the world. Maybe one day you can develop an antidote in advance. I might even benefit from it. When the Banxia extract is out, I will also send a copy of the information to Professor.”

“Xiaoxiao, aren’t you afraid that I will do something bad?”

“I don’t doubt people when I use them. I still believe in the medical ethics of Professor.”

“Okay, Xiaoxiao, believe in me. Of course, I will do my best.”

Ouyang Jinguo became extremely excited as if he had been injected with stimulants. For a medical addict like him, these things were what he liked the most.

“I will try to persuade Le’er, but if she doesn’t listen, there is nothing I can do.”

“Of course. I told you before that I will spare Ouyang Le’s life no matter what. This is my payment for Professor’s research.”

Ouyang Jinguo was impressed by Shen Xiaoxiao this time. She was magnanimous, steady, and thoughtful. Le’er was no match for such a woman.

However, she had done enough. The information alone was enough for him.

“I won’t stand on ceremony with you. This time, you spared Le’er’s life. If she still doesn’t repent after we get out of here, there’s nothing I can do. When the time comes, life and death will be decided by her…”

Shen Xiaoxiao heard Ouyang Jinguo’s sorrowful tone and didn’t know how to console him. She had already shown mercy by not directly taking Ouyang Le’s life. Since Ouyang Jinguo himself had said so… then she would be able to avoid trouble in the future.

“19, take the professor to see Ouyang Le.”

“Yes.”

Watching Ouyang Jinguo’s back walk away, Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t want to say anything for a moment. If her children were to do the same in the future, she would probably strangle them to death with her own hands.

However, as a parent, she was also at a loss for what to do when she saw her child making a mistake and refusing to repent.

When Ouyang Jinguo left, Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t see him again, but he asked 19 to bring two words to her: “Pei Li.”

Shen Xiaoxiao knew that this matter probably had something to do with Pei Li, but she didn’t expect Ouyang Le to be so loyal after getting rid of him.

In the long corridor, the sound of her leather shoes stepping on it sounded especially striking.

Without anyone following her, she slowly walked to the door.

After entering the password, the metal door opened, and Ouyang Le retreated in fear as if she had seen a ghost.

Shen Xiaoxiao pulled over a stool and sat down. She looked at her and said slowly, “You have a good father.”

“Hahahaha, Shen Xiaoxiao, are you telling me a joke? Let me out, let me out.”

“Aren’t you afraid? Why aren’t you afraid now?”

“Afraid? Why should I be afraid? You are a person who is about to die. Why should I be afraid of you? Don’t you want to know how I found out that you were poisoned? Of course, I won’t tell you. I just want you to live in torment and beg for death.”

Looking at Ouyang Le’s crazed look, Shen Xiaoxiao was still sitting there calmly. She didn’t get angry out of embarrassment. When she saw Ouyang Le like this, she even felt sympathy for her. Yes, sympathy… She felt sympathy for Ouyang Jinguo and the two-month-old baby girl.

“Your father said that you haven’t asked anything since the baby was born. Why? Isn’t it your baby? You begged your father to save you for the baby. Why did you give birth and not want to care about her?”

“Why should I care about her? If I didn’t have such a baby in my life, how could I have given birth to her? Look at how ugly I am after giving birth. Look at this scar. If it weren’t for me, how would she have lived? If it weren’t for her, would I still be this ugly?”

This reason was too weird for Shen Xiaoxiao. Wasn’t it normal for her to have a c-section after giving birth to her own flesh and blood? She had the scar as well. She was also fat and bloated back then, but as a mother, shouldn’t these things be something to be proud of and happy about?

Why did Ouyang Le feel so disgusted?

“That’s a new reason. Alright, you can leave now. But don’t blame me for not warning you. If you mess with me again, Ouyang Jinguo won’t have the ability to protect you.”

“You want to let me go?”

Ouyang Le was shocked. Shen Xiaoxiao was willing to let her go? What was going on?

“Don’t think that just because you’re willing to let me go, I’ll tell you how I know. I won’t…”

“Alright, isn’t it just Pei Li? Do you really think that I want to know? Go back and tell Pei Li that I’ll make him lose whatever he wants, including the chance to be a man.. If he’s honest, he can live for a few more years. Otherwise, I, Shen Xiaoxiao, will make his life a living hell!”
