Chapter 359: A Defeated Subordinate

en knock on the door broke the strange, ambiguous tension between the two."Chu Shao, the overseas conference is about to begin, shouldn't we leave too"Song Xu's respectful voice came from the doorway,...Then he held the girl tightly in his arms, as if the next second he was going to rub her into his body.

He finally gasped for breath, and said in a suppressed voice.

“I’m going to A country, please wait for me to come back.”

The girl finally made her feelings known at this very moment, so how could he bear to leave right now... He truly wished he could keep her by his side every day.

Or just hide her completely…

He knew deep down that this was impossible. Xu Zui Ning wasn't the kind of woman who wanted to rely on others for her life.

She has always had her own goals, and everything she does is clear-cut. She is always pursuing what she wants.

He could never possibly control her life like this. Perhaps it was because he was incapable of controlling her that she seemed so alluring and unique.

“I know… Ah, right. The sigh of the Archangels, give it to me”

Xu Zui'ning let out a low chuckle, but Ouyang Chu heard the sigh of the archangel, and his face turned rather unsightly.

What do you use these things for

"I must thoroughly research the toxins inside."

Xu Zui Ning looked at Ou Yang Chu's eyes with incomparable honesty, and a little bit of worry.

Once, she was simply interested in this as a physician. Now, being Ouyang Chu's girlfriend, she naturally wants to unravel the poison on him even more.

However, this toxin, even her master from her previous life had spent a lifetime trying to unravel it without success. She found it quite troublesome too.

But she still wanted to give it a try, after all, there were many aspects to approach when making an antidote.

The most important thing is still to analyze the components of this toxin, so that we can develop antidotes for various components. After all, it's still worth a try.

All the toxins on Ouyang Chu came from the sigh of the archangel, so naturally, it had to start with this ring.

Ouyang Chu immediately understood Xu Zui'ning's thoughts. Of course, he chose to trust Xu Zui'ning, so he just nodded and instructed.

"I know, but you have to be careful too."

Frostbite toxin doesn't necessarily have to be ingested. Its overwhelming toxicity manifests everywhere. If a Seraphim's sigh were permeated with frostbite toxin, simply wearing it close to your body could potentially expose you to the poison.

For example, Ouyang Chu treated this ring as his mother’s only relic and always kept it close. It was only then that it became contaminated with this toxin.

Xu Zui Ning naturally understood the weight of these words, so she obediently nodded.

"Wait for me."

Ouyang Chu whispered a final reminder, then drove Xu Zui Ning to the teaching building. Naturally, he didn't let go of her on the way, showering her with kisses and affection, leaving her blushing and flustered.

Xu Zui Ning tidied her clothes and got out of the car. The whispers around her continued from the moment she stepped out until she entered the teaching building and finally the classroom.

"This is Xu Zui Ning... I'm not exaggerating, she's too ugly!"

"How could Chu Shao fall for such a woman... and even give up Wei Qingyan for her..."

Xu Zui Ning had long since become immune to such discussions. It seemed that ever since her rebirth into this world, these voices had never ceased.

She nonchalantly walked into her classroom, which was always bustling with noise. However, the moment Xu Zuiying stepped inside, it was as if someone had switched off the power, and everyone fell silent.

The entire classroom was silent, save for the occasional gasps of exertion.

At this time, everyone's feelings towards Xu Zuiying were very complex. After all, they didn't dare to provoke the powerful people behind her, but they were truly envious of her.

For a moment, I didn't know whether to hide or try to please.

Xu Zuiying still didn't intend to pay attention. Seeing Zhou Shuangqing and Liang Zitui in the front row, she waved and walked straight there, then sat down.

"Wow... Sister Zui Ning, you're too ruthless. You know you're a celebrity at school now, right"

Liangzi's eyes sparkled, his face practically glowing with admiration.

Liang Zitui went traveling right after the new semester started. He skipped classes for almost half a term. This time, he finally came back to school and bumped into the big news that Xu Zui'ning and Ou Yangchu had confirmed their relationship today.

His shock was actually a little different from others. Liang Zitu knew the relationship between Ou Yang Chu and Xu Zui Ning after all, what shocked him was that the two announced their relationship so openly.

After all, he's a man...who wouldn't want to keep some options open I didn't expect Ouyang Chu to be so devoted.

Xu Zui Ning had no mood to gossip with him, so she asked directly.

How's that thing you were investigating going

Although Liang Zitu wasn't at school during this time, the two of them kept in touch through WeChat.

Xu Zui'ning had practically no connections in this city. To find out anything, she basically had to rely on Liang Zitui.

Liang Zi Tu hurriedly nodded earnestly and said.

“I’ve heard about this, the herbs you mentioned are basically unavailable on the regular market anymore. But I’ve heard of an underground herbal market on Lin'yin Road. Though it’s not official, the quality of the herbs is good, and you don’t have to worry about where they come from... If you really want to buy them, you can go take a look.”

This is what Xu Zuiying asked Liang Zitu to investigate. He now has a nearly perfect alchemy furnace and can make many medicines, but he lacks medicinal herbs.

After all, the parts that don't overlap between the two worlds aren't that significant anymore. It's good to know now.

"Okay, Lin'yin Road, I got it."

Xu Zuiying carefully noted down the address of Lin'yin Road and then prepared to go shopping tonight.

Liangzi looked rather worried.

"Zui Ning Jie, you shouldn't be going alone, should you Although that place has a wider variety of herbs and good quality, it is after all the black market... there are all sorts of people in there. If you go alone... I wouldn't feel safe!"

Even if Xu Zui'ning's face is already ugly enough now, you can't guarantee that someone with an extreme taste won't appear in such a smoky place!

"Don't worry about this, I'll go dressed as a man."

Xu Zui nodded thoughtfully, she had already considered this question early in the morning.

Liangzi Tu finally felt at ease and nodded. Then, with renewed enthusiasm, he asked.

"Zui Ningjie, I went to a meeting with the company at the Chinese Medicine Association the other day. Those old men even made an app specifically for discussing and sharing Traditional Chinese Medicine. Would you be interested in taking a look"

Xu Zui Ning heard his words and became thoroughly interested.

"What kind of app are you talking about"

Liang Zitu took out his phone, opened an app for Xu Zhuining to see, and introduced it to her at the same time.The hotel had constant temperature control, but the hallway wasn't very warm. Gu Kejun wore a lace nightgown that revealed her proud figure. The ultra-low neckline showcased a beautiful view, and her...
