Huo Yao handed the bottle back to He Shu. "Slow-acting poisons are usually hard to detect. Even if it is detected in the later stages, it is already too late."
He Shu clutched the bottle tightly. He still did not believe that there was a problem with the medicine. His master's medical skills were not bad, let alone others. He should have been able to detect it after taking so many medicines for so many years.
But if there was really nothing wrong with the medicine... then his master's condition should not be this bad. He should not have tried making so many medicines without any effect.
He Shu's mind was in a mess.
Huo Yao could tell that He Shu was hesitating whether to believe her or not. Her eyes drifted away. After some time, she said softly, "Most of the time, doctors can't save themselves."
He Shu's eyes landed on Huo Yao's face. He was not a stubborn person, so he opened his mouth. "Then my master..."
"Old Mr. Wang has been taking this medicine for too long. The poison has already spread all over his body. Also, his vitality is being eroded too quickly. If I'm not wrong, he must have taken other medicines before he fell ill. That is why the poison suddenly broke out," said Huo Yao slowly.
He Shu was not sure about this, so he turned to look at the fat old butler who had not left yet. "Uncle Bai, do you know what other medicines Master has been taking lately?"
The butler contemplated before he shook his head. "I don't know. Old Mr. Wang was busy with the association before he fell ill, so he did not come home much."
He paused before he continued. "Why don't I get all the spare medicines at home? You can check if there are any that can't be taken."
After that, the butler hurried out of the room.
He Shu looked at Huo Yao again and asked her softly. "Since the poison broke out, can Master be saved if we expel the poison or take the antidote?"
"If he was an adult, there might be a chance. But it's difficult for an old man," said Huo Yao regretfully.
When He Shu heard this, he took a small step back. He looked at Old Wang on the bed with a sad expression. "Is there … no way to save him?"
"If the poison didn't break out completely, he might be able to recuperate..." Huo Yao did not finish her sentence, but it was not hard to guess.
He Shu felt a little uncomfortable. For the past two days, he had thought that it was because Vice President Qin had withheld his teacher's medicine, causing his teacher to stop taking the medicine. That was why his teacher's body couldn't take it anymore and became like this. He had never thought that it would be a chronic poison.
At this moment, the butler came in with a medicine box. He placed it on the small table next to him. "Old Master's medicine is all here."
Huo Yao walked over.
There were more than ten bottles of medicine in the box. Most of them were mainly for health care, and some were for lowering blood pressure and blood sugar.
Huo Yao looked at them and said, "It's fine. Old Mr. Wang's health will not be affected."
He Shu recalled Huo Yao's words and a thought popped into his head. "Someone is trying to make my master's health deteriorate."
Huo Yao was not familiar with the internal workings of the Pharmacy Association. However, based on the current situation, she could not rule out the possibility. She was not in a position to say much, so she merely said, "Perhaps."
At that moment, He Shu subconsciously thought of Vice President Qin. During this period of time, everyone could see that he couldn't wait to take over the position of Vice President Qin.
He had every reason to be ruthless.
