"Yes." Su Chen nodded, "Xuanyuan Hao gave me half an antidote, so it will take three months for my poison to take effect."
Hu Lan finally felt relieved after hearing this. However, Su Chen could only live for three more months. In the end, would he still be unable to escape the bad fate of death from poison?
Looking at her downcast face, Su Chen raised a smile and said confidently: "Auntie, don't be so pessimistic! Since Xuanyuan Hao is willing to give me half of the antidote, it is naturally because I still have value.
Let's just think of a way to get half of the antidote from him."
She said it lightly just to appease Hu Lan. In fact, she herself had no idea. Fortunately, there were still three months to go. No one could tell what the situation would be like. Moreover, she had made a decision in her heart.
.
"Use value? What else does he want from us?" Hu Lan almost said this through gritted teeth, her tone full of hatred for Xuanyuan Hao.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes, "I don't know. But since there is still value, he won't be willing to kill me before he gets what he wants. I will try to figure out what he wants from me.
Whatever he gets, it will be easy to deal with next. As long as I let him know that I do have what he wants, but I must not give it to him within these three months. At least I have to wait until he gives me the antidote.
Him." In order for Xuanyuan Hao not to cheat when the time came, she asked for his seal, just because she was afraid that he would give her a fake antidote or not give her the antidote.
"Auntie, please keep this seal. If Xuanyuan Hao breaks the contract, you will send this seal to Lord Xuanyuan. If I die, I can't make him feel better. At least this seal may have a big effect.
effect."
When Hu Lan heard this, she quickly put the seal away close to her body.
"Also, I'm afraid that Xuanyuan Hao will send someone to retrieve the seal, so be careful." Su Chen warned. She was just afraid that Xuanyuan Hao would give her the seal so readily. Maybe she already had some plans in mind, such as sending someone to retrieve the seal.
If someone comes to snatch it back or something, she has to be on guard.
"Girl Su, let's find the prince. Let the prince help you make the decision. He will definitely help you." Hu Lan was silent, then suddenly thought of Xia Li, and said urgently.
Su Chen's eyes were complicated, but he shook his head firmly, "You can't look for him. Xuanyuan Hao warned me not to say a word to him." In fact, she was not afraid of Xuanyuan Hao's threat, but she just didn't want to give Xia Li any trouble.
To cause trouble, since she has rejected him before, she can't go to him now just because she encounters difficulties. She is not such an unprincipled person.
Although if she asked Xia Li for help, Xia Li would have no problem, but she would look down on herself. What's more, if that perverted villain Xuanyuan Hao has such thoughts towards Xia Li, if she lets Xia Li know about Xuanyuan Hao
What he did to her might lead to a breakup between the two of them. In this case, she was really afraid of angering Xuanyuan Hao. If he came to a decisive end, it was not what she wanted. Because her life depended on Xuanyuan Hao.
In her hands, she was passive no matter what.
When Hu Lan heard what she said, the glimmer of hope that had just arisen in her heart was instantly shattered. At the same time, she felt more hatred towards Xuanyuan Hao. She really wished she could rush to kill him right now... But she couldn't do that. Su Chen's
The other half of the antidote was still in his hand, offending him would be even more detrimental to Su Chen.
Seeing her silence, Su Chen seemed to have figured something out, so he said no more. But before leaving, he gave Hu Lan some instructions before turning around and leaving.
She was going to find Nangong Ximo. He was good at medicine. Although he may not have researched on poisons, she wanted to ask him for something.
Hu Lan silently watched her slender figure walk into the garden, her eyes filled with tears again.
Poor child!
She didn't fight for anything, she just wanted to live an ordinary life, but why did these bad things always come to her?
Hu Lan felt both cherished and worried about Su Chen.
She was supposed to have a noble birth, but she never enjoyed the glory and wealth that should have been hers when she was born. Her biological mother was killed when she was less than two years old. It was a pity that she was forced to flee at such a young age. For more than ten years, she has followed her
He worked hard to hide his traces, made a humble living in Prince Li's Mansion, and now he has to face the threat of death.
Thinking of Su Chen's rough fate, Hu Lan suddenly couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.
For her, Su Chen is not only her little master. The more than ten years of life and death, and dependence on each other have made her have deep feelings for Su Chen. Thinking of the near future, Su Chen may be like Su Die'er
Such a tragic death made her feel sad.
Su Chen hadn't gone far when she suddenly heard Hu Lan crying from behind. She stopped immediately. Her nose was sore and she almost shed tears, but she quickly raised her face and forced back the tears.
Go back. It's not the time to cry yet. She is not a weak person. Even though she is afraid of death, she usually laughs, curses, and is happy, but deep down she is an extremely stubborn and unyielding person.
Hu Lan treats her like his own daughter. He usually seems careless towards her, but he truly loves and cherishes her. Even for Hu Lan, she will live well and live better than anyone else.
.
She will definitely get the antidote!
She secretly clenched her fists to cheer herself up.
He raised his smile again and strode towards the yard where Nangong Ximo lived before.
…
When Su Chen entered the side courtyard, Nangong Ximo was studying something in the room.
Su Chen looked at the sky. It was just dawn at this time. He didn't expect that everyone got up so early today.
Xia Li did it, so did she, and Nangong Ximo did it so early.
Liu Yang looked at her with a strange look, but Su Chen didn't take it to heart. When he followed him into the pharmacy, he saw Nangong Ximo holding a book and reading it intently.
Su Chen sighed, it is said that men who work are the most attractive, so why not men who focus on reading?
Nangong Ximo sat in front of a pile of medicine books, holding the books with his slender fingers. His long black hair hung down, blocking his face. But looking at it from Su Chen's perspective, he could still see his frown.
The eyebrows and pursed lips.
He seemed to be stumped by something. He was focused on his books and was completely unaware of Su Chen entering the room.
"Sir, Miss Su is here." It was Liu Yang's voice again.
Nangong Ximo quickly raised his head and looked at Su Chen a little eagerly.
