Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife – o

With a determined heart, Old Lady Xia tightly closed her eyes, deciding to go all in.

However, she didn’t know that while she was pondering over things, her eyeballs kept moving around, and her eyelids were trembling, which was quite distressing to see.

Ah, come on, at least pretend to be a bit more convincing, huh? Aren’t the eyelids of someone who’s unconscious supposed to be still?

Old Lady Xia closed her eyes and waited for a long time, her muscles all tensed up, just waiting for An Yiqing to make her move.

But once again, to her surprise, she didn’t hear An Yiqing approaching even after a long wait.

At that moment, Gu Tingting’s surprised voice rang out in the great hall.

"Eh? Qingqing, what’s this for? Shouldn’t you use a scalpel for surgery? What are you doing with a tiny hammer?"

A tiny hammer?! What is that girl up to?! Could it be she’s trying to crack open her skull?! Old Lady Xia’s heart skipped a beat as she rapidly envisioned numerous scenes of her head being smashed to pieces, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead instantly.

Then, An Yiqing’s leisurely voice came over.

"Hmm, this is a unique method my shimen uses to treat heart patients, very effective. I’ve personally seen my master save several heart patients who were in critical condition. However, today is the first time I’m using this Heart-protecting Hammer, so I’m not very skilled yet."

"Not very skilled? What happens if there’s a mishap?" Gu Tingting continued to ask.
