Chapter 726: The Fake Antidote
Hearing Song Qingshu mention her husband, Huang Rong felt a pang of guilt. Now that she had obtained the antidote, she hadn’t even thought of saving Brother Jing first!
Suppressing her chaotic emotions, Huang Rong nodded and quickly entered the room with the porcelain bottle in hand. Guo Jing was sitting cross-legged on the bed, seemingly trying to circulate his True Qi. However, the large beads of sweat dripping from his face indicated that his condition was far from good.
“Rong’er, is that you?” Under normal circumstances, with Guo Jing’s level of martial arts, he could easily recognize his wife’s footsteps. However, with his dantian completely devoid of internal energy and his eyesight gone, he could only tell that the person entering had light and graceful steps, likely a woman.
“Brother Jing, we found the antidote!” Seeing her husband’s miserable state, Huang Rong’s nose tingled, and she hurried forward to support him.
Song Qingshu leaned against the doorway, not stepping inside to disturb them. Strangely enough, despite his strong possessiveness toward women, watching Huang Rong and Guo Jing interact intimately did not make him feel uncomfortable at all. After thinking it over, he could only explain it as: ‘Huang Rong was originally Guo Jing’s wife, after all.’
‘I must be quite the pervert,’ Song Qingshu chuckled to himself mockingly. He was, after all, not the type to kill husbands to take their wives like Yun Zhonghe. While he enjoyed the feeling of possessing Huang Rong, he did not want to ruin her marriage. Firstly, he had to consider his grand ambitions and maintain his reputation. Secondly, it simply wasn’t in his nature.
While he was lost in thought, Huang Rong had already explained the process of obtaining the antidote.
Guo Jing listened with admiration and said, “Young Hero Song is truly full of brilliant ideas. To think of such a clever method!”
Song Qingshu smiled faintly. “You’re too kind, Great Hero Guo. You should take the antidote as soon as possible. Madame Guo was extremely worried about you on the way here.”
