Chapter 501: Five hundred, poisoning
Song Yan Ning watched Han Zaiye’s retreating back, a glint of cold light flashing in her eyes.
"Doctor Song, I’ll toast to you as well," Elder Jin struggled inwardly for a long time before deciding to toast Song Yan Ning. He couldn’t bring himself to apologize, but he truly had some admiration for her. She was decisive and confident, not at all like a teenager.
Song Yan Ning poured herself a drink and raised it to clink glasses with Elder Jin. Elder Jin was about the same age as her grandfather, and she saw no need to hold a grudge against him. Besides, they were currently comrades in arms.
Han Zaiye glanced at his watch and looked towards Song Yan Ning. In no more than ten minutes, Song Yan Ning would fall into a coma. When he had toasted her, he had coated the rim of his own glass with a colorless and tasteless poison that would induce unconsciousness until the end of one’s life once ingested.
He kept his eyes on Song Yan Ning, who had just drunk with Elder Jin. Her lips had touched the rim where he had placed the poison; now the toxin had entered Song Yan Ning’s stomach. What could her medical skill do now?
"I feel a bit tipsy," Song Yan Ning shook her head and closed her eyes tightly to resist the drowsiness, but to no avail, and she slumped onto the table.
"Doctor Song!" Xu Bowen nudged Song Yan Ning with his hand, but she did not respond at all. "She must be drunk."
"I’ll take her back," Zhan Yihan stood up, reached out to lift Song Yan Ning, and walked toward the exit amid the astonished stares of the others.
