Chapter 5: A Familiar Reminder

The sky had turned dark, and Han Yunxi was still in a deep sleep; heaven knows how exhausted this body was.

However, deep within her consciousness, she heard a familiar sound: "Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep."

It was almost an instinctive reaction for Han Yunxi to snap her eyes open immediately. Wasn't this the warning sound emitted by the latest scientific research detoxification system from Lingyun Hospital?

In order to retain her, Lingyun Hospital had invested massive amounts of capital into researching this intelligent detoxification system. It was essentially an intelligent space that could store all the various equipment and medicinal materials she needed to detoxify patients.

This system was implanted into her cerebral nerves and was entirely controlled by her consciousness. Han Yunxi hadn't expected that when her soul transmigrated, she would actually bring this treasure along with her. Han Yunxi was thrilled; heaven had finally not abandoned her!

The "beep" sound sounded like the word for "poison" in Chinese; it was reminding Han Yunxi that there was poison nearby.

Han Yunxi had previously suspected that the tumor on her face was formed by accumulated toxins. Now that the detoxification package was giving her this warning, it was certainly the case.

Closing her eyes, she attempted to open the detoxification system with her consciousness. To her surprise, it was still just as convenient to use. She took out several gold needles and medical gauze, and while she was at it, checked the stock inside. Various gold needles and all sorts of medicinal herbs were still quite abundant.

Han Yunxi glanced outside. Seeing that everyone was dozing off, she was certain no one would disturb her for the time being, so she began to treat the toxic tumor on her face.

She had originally intended to extract some blood from the tumor to put into the detoxification system for testing, but she didn't expect that one sniff of the venom would allow her to identify exactly what kind of poison it was.

This poison was commonly known as "Staphylococcus," a very common disfiguring toxin in ancient times. Any poison master with a bit of skill could neutralize it. She hadn't expected that the prestigious medical family, the Han family, would actually allow their daughter to suffer such misery without anyone helping her detoxify.

This poison must have been administered intentionally by someone!

The Han family, was it? She would keep this debt on behalf of the original owner.

There was truth to the saying that a physician cannot treat themselves. Although neutralizing this poison was simple, having the poison on Han Yunxi's face made things somewhat troublesome. She could only work in the dark, draining the toxic blood, clearing the toxins, mixing the medicine to apply, and finally applying the gauze. It took her a full hour of tossing and turning to get everything finished.

After tidying everything up, Han Yunxi pulled the bridal veil back over herself and called out to the outside, "Mother Wang, I'm hungry. Bring me a bowl of noodles."

Mother Wang had been on duty all day. Seeing that the Prince Qin Mansion hadn't sent anyone away, she understood the gravity of the situation and didn't dare offend Han Yunxi again, so she immediately went to buy some.

A large, steaming, fragrant bowl was handed in, masking the medicinal scent. Han Yunxi had Mother Wang withdraw before she lifted the veil and began to eat heartily.

At this moment, on a high building not far away, Han Yunxi's fiancé, Prince Qin Long Feiye, stood with his hands behind his back, leaning against the railing, watching this scene from a distance.

His face could not be seen, only his tall and imposing figure, steady as a mountain. Dressed in black martial attire, he exuded mystery, majesty, and an all-encompassing arrogance. He was like a god of the night, high above, looking down upon all living things.

"Wang, it has been investigated. The woman in the sedan is indeed Han Yunxi. Mother Wang is one of the Dowager Consort's people," the black-clad attendant reported respectfully.

"What is the situation in the palace?" His voice was cold and deep.

"It has spread everywhere. Many people are even making private bets on whether she can enter the gates tomorrow," his close guard, Chu Xifeng, answered truthfully.

Only then did Long Feiye turn around. His handsome and stern features looked as if they had been carved by divine hands, so handsome it would provoke the resentment of gods and men. The lamplight shone on his frost-like face, yet it could not penetrate his dark, deep eyes. They were like a frigid pool, an unfathomable mystery.

"This Prince is also curious whether she can enter or not," Long Feiye said coldly, walking through the air toward the direction away from the Prince Qin Mansion.

Chu Xifeng was stunned. Heavens, had he misheard? Prince Qin was actually capable of curiosity, and the object of it was a woman?

Was the sun going to rise from the west tomorrow?
