Chapter 139: 136 Boss Ying’s Power! [2 More Chapters]
The girl had clearly rushed over.
Her hair was somewhat disheveled, sticking to her skin.
But this also couldn’t hide the nobility that naturally emanated from her, making one feel as if they had been transported to medieval Europe, face to face with those who had been taught the etiquette of the imperial court.
With a tilt of her chin, the girl pointed at the operating room and said indifferently, “The person is inside.”
Although it was a question, she sounded very certain.
The young man was still stunned and inadvertently uttered an “ah.”
Ying Zijin nodded slightly and tidied herself up.
She then took a sterile suit from the side and put it on, her hand resting on the door.
“Wait!” the young man finally regained his senses and objected, “You can’t go in!”
He remembered seeing her when he reported the progress of the medicinal herb search to Fu Yunshen.
At that time, the girl was wearing a school uniform and eating a lollipop, just a very pretty but ordinary high school student.
She wasn’t this aloof and cold, nor did she possess this oppressive aura.
Ying Zijin didn’t look at him; her hand simply blocked him.
“Bang!”
A crisp sound traveled through the air, very faint and subtle.
The young man was startled, his eyes widening in surprise.
This was Inner Strength!
An ancient martial artist?!
How could an ancient martial artist possibly appear in Shanghai City?
While he was shocked, Ying Zijin had already pushed the door and entered.
The doctor who was about to insert the needle into the vein turned around, also startled, and saw the man on the operating bed sit up straight.
With Fu Yunshen’s hearing, even if the soundproofing of the operating room was excellent, he had heard the noise outside.
Seeing the girl enter, his expression subtly changed, and his usually gentle voice turned husky, “Yaoyao, get out.”
“You see, the poison is fully active,” Ying Zijin turned her head and glanced briefly, “You think that by transferring it to your body, you’ll be fine?”
Of course, she knew what Fu Yunshen was thinking.
To transfer the poison from Old Master Fu’s body to his own, to calm the poison down, then proceed with the detoxification.
But once the poison became active, it would become extremely sensitive and even more ferocious.
Transferring the toxin was indeed a solution, but it was the worst-case scenario.
Ying Zijin didn’t leave but instead said, “There are better solutions, you want to trade one life for another, foolish.”
This approach reminded her of her friend who had done the same more than once.
Fu Yunshen fell silent for a moment, then smiled, “Yaoyao, matters of the heart can sometimes be very foolish.”
Ying Zijin didn’t speak, just extended her hand.
At that moment, the young man also rushed in, “Young master, she—”
The rest of his words were cut off.
He was dumbstruck as he saw the girl pull the man up from the sickbed with just one hand.
And it seemed effortless.
The young man: “…”
He was flabbergasted.
He was one of the few who knew very clearly about Fu Yunshen’s martial power.
After all, this was someone who had once swept through Europe.
Even if the girl was an ancient martial artist, even an extremely formidable one, it shouldn’t have been so easy.
Unless, Fu Yunshen offered no resistance and let her do as she pleased.
“I said it before, if you help me, I’ll help you,” Ying Zijin turned off the toxin transfer device and looked up, “If something really happened to me, you wouldn’t ignore it.”
Upon hearing this, Fu Yunshen became silent again for a moment, “Kid, sometimes you’re even more stubborn than I am.”
After a pause, he chuckled softly, his voice tender, “But you’re right, how could I possibly let anything happen to you?”
He had skirmished with that second-ranked Poison Master, and the opponent was no match for him.
But because the Poison Master was covered head to toe in strange toxins, no one else could get close to him, except for himself.
And also because of the poison in Old Master Fu’s body, he couldn’t fully exert himself against the adversary.
But this time, if that Poison Master really pursued them, he could be killed outright.
If he couldn’t even protect a kid properly, those years would indeed have been for nothing.
Fu Yunshen nodded, signaling the other doctors to step back.
One of the doctors hesitated for a moment, “Do you not need help?”
“No need,” Ying Zijin took out a medicine bottle and placed it beside the operating bed, “It’s not a big deal, and you wouldn’t be able to help anyway.”
Several doctors with international reputations, upon hearing these words, all fell into silence.
They silently moved to the side and just stared without blinking.
They hardly dared to breathe, afraid they might miss something.
Ying Zijin took silver needles and golden needles from the long case and inserted them into several of Old Master Fu’s acupuncture points.
Her needle dropping speed was very slow this time, nothing like the dozen needles in a few seconds when she was treating Mu Heqing.
The young man watching was shocked, “Young Master, is this… Ancient Medicine?”
“Mhm,” Fu Yunshen answered blandly, “not just any Ancient Medicine.”
The young man’s jaw dropped again.
An ancient martial artist who also practices Ancient Medicine, could this even be human?
Yet, they had also sought help from the Ancient medical field for Old Master Fu’s poison before and still there was no solution.
The young man asked in a low voice, “Young Master, is she a native of Shanghai City?”
“No,” Fu Yunshen turned his head, “don’t talk.”
The young man swallowed his further doubts back down and continued to watch intently.
Because the medicine bottle contained highly toxic essences, Ying Zijin also used them with great caution.
Her body was quite ordinary and not very strong, so it took her more effort when arranging the needles.
Fortunately, she had encountered this kind of poison once before.
Ying Zijin’s eyelashes lowered as she dropped another needle.
Old acquaintance, we meet again.
**
The students of Class 19 were beaming when the school break ended on May 6th.
Other classes might not know about Ying Zijin’s capabilities, but how could they be unaware?
Even the worst student in the class, after attending Daddy Ying’s biology lecture, was estimating their score to be above 75, just 15 points shy of full marks.
Xiu Yu, as Ying Zijin’s deskmate, had even seen her causally flip through a physics book that was five centimeters thick.
The classmates in Class 19 were holding back and not saying a word, even when seeing mocking posts on the campus forum.
“This Lu Fang is really an idiot,” the younger brother snorted coldly, “With so many things to eat, why choose to eat crap?”
Jiang Ran was also in high spirits, and his temperamental mood had calmed down quite a bit, “Let’s set him up with a tray, let him have his fill.”
He could get a few pigs to satisfy Lu Fang’s needs.
Just the thought of watching Lu Fang’s live broadcast soon made the younger brother suddenly slap his thigh, excited beyond measure, “Brother Ran, Sister Yu, do you think I should personally—”
“Scram!” Xiu Yu shouted angrily, “You’re disgusting.”
The younger brother scratched his head, realizing Xiu Yu had misinterpreted him, “No, I mean I should personally keep an eye on him.”
“That’s disgusting enough, don’t say anymore,” Xiu Yu said with a blank face, “I’m going to throw up.”
“Wait a minute,” Jiang Ran looked up, “Did Daddy Ying take a leave of absence?”
“Yes,” Xiu Yu nodded, “Morning reading is already over, Daddy Ying usually arrives just on time.”
Jiang Ran frowned, “Didn’t you call?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
“Do you need to tell me that? I’ve already called early on,” Xiu Yu shook his head, “but it didn’t go through, there must be something urgent, you can’t handle your dad’s affairs, so stop worrying.”
Jiang Ran: “…”
He had something to say but wasn’t sure if it was appropriate.
“They’re out, they’re out!” another younger brother ran in from outside, “Brother Ran, Sister Yu, the overall rankings have been released, I saw the teacher from the academic office going down with the red paper to post it, let’s go have a look.”
While the students of Class 19 were heading downstairs, on the other side, the Elite Class.
Lu Fang was waiting for the forum to release the total rankings, and then he would reverse sort them to find out just how shameful Ying Zijin’s scores were.
He even wrote a self-criticism for Ying Zijin addressed to Zhong Zhiwan, planning to post it on the forum, forcing Ying Zijin to leave Verdant.
A girl peeked out of the window and called out, “Zhiwan, aren’t you going down to check out the rankings?”
Normally, students of the Elite Class wouldn’t bother with the bulletin board’s rankings.
Without having to look, they knew the top fifty would definitely be from their class.
After all, the Elite Class students moved in and out frequently, and if they dropped out of the top fifty, they would be transferred to the science experimental class.
But this time, because of the bet between Lu Fang and Ying Zijin and the Elite Class’s reputation at stake, when Zhiwan mentioned it, the other students also became interested.
“Zhiwan, wait for me!” Lu Fang quickly tucked away his phone and ran down following her.
When Zhong Zhiwan arrived downstairs at the teaching building, a large crowd of students had already gathered, mostly from the science experimental class.
She glanced around and immediately noticed the excited students from Class 19, and couldn’t help but sneer.
About to be publicly executed, yet so happy; she couldn’t understand what was going through their minds.
“Zhiwan, you’re definitely the top of the grade this time,” Lu Fang didn’t forget to flatter, “If you score above 125 in math this time, wouldn’t that effectively be a full score of 150 once converted? That’s amazing.”
Zhong Zhiwan smiled faintly without saying much, but it was obvious she thought so too.
The teachers finished posting the red paper and then left.
The students couldn’t wait to look up.
