Watching Zi Wei leave, Su Yingxue felt a twinge of reluctance but also a heavy burden lifted.
Regardless of whether she could cure the plague this time, at least she wouldn’t implicate Zi Wei.
She had always hoped that he could live like a normal person.
“Hahaha, what a good show of affection so entwined!”
Hong Lian’s bold laughter came from outside the door, sharply contrasting with the silent night.
Unlike the fear of Zi Wei contracting the disease just a moment ago, Su Yingxue stepped out and approached Hong Lian. “Pavilion Master Hong Lian, did you come for a stroll to my place at this late hour? You’re so free.”
With every word she said, she took a step closer to Hong Lian.
She didn’t bring Assassin No. 19 with her today, and her eyes that were blinded by her poison had also recovered their sight.
Her long hair fluttered in the moonlight, and her eyes were full of pride. “As someone nearing death, of course, 1 have to take a few more glances at you. Otherwise, when your body starts to decay and pus, not even the features can be distinguished. That would be quite unappetizing.”
Su Yingxue stood in front of Hong Lian, a seductive smile blossomed on her beautiful face. “Pavilion Master Hong Lian, how do you conclude that I’m nearing death?”
“You can’t cure the deadly plague.” Hong Lian inched closer to her, her eyes filled with cold and mockery. She looked down on her with pride.
It was as if she was the blazing sun, and she, Su Yingxue, was just a dying cicada after a summer.
However, Su Yingxue’s smile became even brighter. “You clearly know that I can’t cure the deadly plague, yet you come so close without any fear. Pavilion Master Hong Lian, I’m afraid that this deadly plague was your doing, right?”
Hong Lian’s eyes gleamed sharply as she grabbed Su Yingxue’s neck. “Are you deliberately testing me?”
Su Yingxue didn’t resist, but the smile on her lips became even more ethereal. “Hong Lian, I’ve been in the medical center for so long. My manager and doctor have all been infected with the deadly plague, and you still dare to touch me. It seems that not only is the deadly plague your doing, but even the poison doctor, Saint Ruan, is also under your control, right?”
After Su Yingxue finished speaking slowly, she grabbed Hong Lian’s hand with her right hand and pulled her in front of her.
The two women looked at each other, and their eyes radiated crimson murderous intent.
“Su Yingxue, as death approaches, savor these last moments!”
Hong Lian shook off her hand and retreated with a cold smile.
“You can scheme against me, but aren’t you the one who had always been infatuated with His Highness? Don’t you know that this time he vouched for me? If something happens to me, he won’t be blameless.” Su Yingxue’s eyes were profound, with a probing glint.
“Are you even worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as His Highness? His Highness commands tens of thousands of troops, and even the emperor dares not reprimand him! As for you… Even if His Highness is implicated by you this time, the Silver Moon Pavilion will surely present a brilliant plan to ensure His Highness’s safe retreat.”
“What you call a safe retreat is to have the poison doctor, Saint Ruan, intervene after my death and cure the deadly plague?” Su Yingxue flipped her hair, her eyes filled with confidence.
“Su Yingxue, go ahead and flaunt your abilities! When you’re dead, I’ll definitely grind your corpse to ashes!” Hong Lian said and then swiftly left.
As she watched her leave, Su Yingxue secretly smirked. She really had to thank this woman who came to see her make a fool of herself!
The mysteries in her mind suddenly unraveled.
Liu Shulan, Silver Moon Pavilion, deadly plague!
Su Yingxue was excited for a moment, but the gleam in her eyes quickly faded.
“What’s the use of unraveling all this?”
If she couldn’t cure the deadly plague, she wouldn’t be able to escape either..
