036 had an idea
Chen Yi was very happy after hearing Tan Jing’s words. She also wanted to show her daughter some care, “By the way, I noticed that a sum of money was transferred a few days ago using the card that I gave you. What did you use it for?”
Tan Jing remembered that she was referring to the sum of money that she transferred to Zhou Wu. She felt a little guilty and she replied, “I met a friend. He was seriously ill and didn’t have much longer to live. In the past, I didn’t have a good life in the Tao family. It was all thanks to his help from time to time...”
Tan Jing lied without any hesitation, “I thought that one should never forget one’s roots. I am very grateful that now I have a mother who loves me so much. If I have the ability to help, I would like to help him.”
Chen Yi didn’t really care about the money. She only thought that her daughter was really kind and obedient. She was much better than a prodigal like Tan Rou who only knew how to waste money.
Chen Yi comforted Tan Jing, “Our family does not lack food and clothing like the Tao family. You have suffered for so many years, so I naturally feel sorry for you. If you want to use money, then use it. Our family doesn’t lack that kind of spare change.”
Tan Jing leaned happily beside Chen Yi. Her vanity was satisfied. So what if Tan Rou was doted by the Tao Family? Could their love be converted to money? She had to live in hardship every day. The amount of money she had was probably enough to spite Tan Rou to death.
Tan Jing thought to herself, Tan Rou was nowhere near her, be it her family background or wealth. So what if she had wisened up? She still could not beat her!
Tan Jing was immersed in her vanity. Never in a thousand years would she realize the true situation of the Tao family.
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.
Tan Rou studied Zhuang Liu’s condition and finally made some progress. Just as she had expected, the poison in Zhuang Liu’s body was actually a combination of many kinds of poisons. One of them was exceptionally rare and had been lost for a long time.
Tan Rou could not help but sigh. The person who poisoned him was really vicious. She did not know who they had offended such that he was so ruthless to Zhuang Liu, who was only a child at that time.
Now that Tan Rou knew what kind of poison there was, she naturally understood the symptoms of the poison’s onset. Her heart ached for Zhuang Liu. After so many years, even if Uncle Bai had used medicine to help alleviate the pain, he must have suffered badly.
But all of this would eventually end. Tan Rou was very familiar with the poison in Zhuang Liu’s body.
Tan Rou usually loved to refine incense and make medicine because these were more convenient and the most practical. In peacetime, why would anyone spend all their time researching poison and antidote?
But this didn’t mean that Tan Rou didn’t know how to detoxify and even make poisons.
On the day of her rebirth, it was precisely the antidotes that she was carrying on her which neutralized the knockout drugs.
Tan Rou recalled that place where she used to be and how she had to learn how to make a new antidote every day to successfully pass the tests.
There were even times when the poison was fed into her mouth and if she couldn’t detoxify it within the stipulated time, death would await her.
That place...
Tan Rou let out a long sigh of relief and forced herself to withdraw from her memories. The most important thing now was to help Zhuang Liu remove the poison.
Coincidentally, Tan Rou had once detoxified that rare poison that was once thought to be long lost. She could use this as a breakthrough point to completely remove Zhuang Liu’s remaining poison.
Tan Rou sent a text message to tell Zhuang Liu the good news. After making an appointment to meet up, she immediately went out to buy the medicinal herbs that she needed.
Zhuang Liu was stunned for a moment when he received the text message. He read it over and over again.
Zhuang Liu really couldn’t believe that the problem that had troubled him for more than a decade was solved by Tan Rou in just a few days.
When he suddenly found out that she had found a solution, Zhuang Liu felt surreal. Could he really stand up again? Perhaps if the matter had dragged on for a little longer, he would really have fallen into despair.
But Tan Rou appeared. She firmly told Zhuang Liu that she had found a way and was ready to give him another round of treatment.
Zhuang Liu could feel the happiness and confidence in her tone. This time, he was really going to recover.
Xiao Mo had been following Zhuang Liu the whole time. When he noticed that Zhuang Liu was a little off after taking a look at his phone, he asked, “Third Young Master, did something happen?”
Zhuang Liu recovered from his shock and ecstasy and he nodded, “Tan Rou has found a way to treat me. Make preparations and find a reliable place at once.”
Xiao Mo didn’t bother with the formalities and shouted, “Really! Did she really find a solution?”
Zhuang Liu smiled. Xiao Mo had always been his confidant. They had grown up together and he truly cared for him.
