What was going on with Ning Jing?
Her stomachache was not completely faked. She had just secretly taken a poison that she had hidden in her mouth. This poison was called "Haunted Night". Once taken, she would have a stomachache at night.
However, it was only a slight pain and was not fatal. After three nights of pain, the poison would dissipate. After the poison dissipated, the person would be very weak and would need to rest in bed for a month.
She had long expected that Tang Li would find a doctor for her, so she had made sufficient preparations. Even if the doctor really came, he would not be able to find the specific cause of the illness after taking her pulse.
Anyway, she planned to recuperate in bed for this month and be served by others. With Auntie Shuang watching over her and her family coming to visit, Tang Li could not do anything to her.
The person who sold her the poison clearly said that after taking the poison, she would only feel a slight pain. Why did her internal organs hurt as if they were being cut by knives?
She was not afraid of pain, but this kind of pain was simply unbearable. In just a short while, she was already sweating all over.
Looking at Ning Jing's pale face and trembling lips, Tang Li's eyes flashed with contempt. He thought to himself, This shameless woman really knows how to act. If he had not fallen for her tricks before, he would definitely have fallen for it.
He leaned closer and asked curiously, "If it's not an illness, what is it?"
Ning Jing did not answer. To be exact, she did not have the strength to explain to him. She pressed her hands tightly on her stomach, hoping to relieve some of the pain.
"Let's call a doctor over." Tang Li seemed to be very anxious, but in fact, he did not even want to call a doctor over.
Ning Jing was just pretending. It was useless to call a doctor over. He was very willing to slowly waste time with her tonight.
"Come, drink some more water. I'll call a doctor."
He gently helped Ning Jing sit up. As soon as Ning Jing sat down, she immediately fell to the side and curled up in pain.
Her acting was so good!
Tang Li decided to accompany her to the end. Long Fei Ye had already ordered him to settle Ning Jing within a year. He decided to use warm tactics to torment this … slut!
Tang Li quickly pulled Ning Jing up. "Jing Jing, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, okay?"
Ning Jing was in so much pain that she felt weak all over. She couldn't help but collapse into Tang Li's arms. The warmth in Tang Li's arms immediately dispersed the coldness in her body. However, she was not greedy. She gritted her teeth and quickly struggled out. Lying in the bedding, she held her stomach tightly and did not say a word.
"Jing 'er, wait, I'll call the doctor right away."
When Tang Li opened the door and came out, he saw Aunt Shuang pacing back and forth in the courtyard.
"Tang … Aunt, son-in-law." Aunt Shuang was still calm. She thought that the young lady's plan should have succeeded. Tang Li must have come out to summon the doctor.
Unexpectedly, Tang Li glanced at her and went back in without saying anything.
What was going on?
Aunt Shuang became uneasy. Just as she was about to approach, two shadow guards immediately appeared and stopped her.
Inside the room, Ning Jing saw that Tang Li had returned and finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he had called the doctor. She was saved.
Tang Li still poured warm water and knelt in front of the bed. He gently coaxed, "Jing Jing, drink some water. The doctor will be here soon."
Ning Jing turned her face away and ignored him.
Tang Li was very patient. He climbed onto the bed and knelt in front of Ning Jing. "Jing Jing, don't be like this. If you do this, my heart will ache. I know we didn't have a good relationship before, but since I, Tang Li, married you, I will definitely cherish you. Jing Jing, give me a chance, okay? "
Ning Jing was cold to begin with. When she heard this, she got goosebumps all over her body.
She turned her head and looked elsewhere. Tang Li caught up with her and held the cup in front of her with both hands. "Jing Jing, take it that I'm begging you. Drink some water, okay?"
Her stomach hurt more and more. Her internal organs seemed to be stirred together. Ning Jing was in so much pain that she was about to cry. She buried her head in the blankets and her frail body couldn't help but tremble.
Tang Li was having a lot of fun. His lips curled into a devilish smile. He moved closer ambiguously and forcefully pulled Ning Jing's hand to slap his face. "Jing Jing, hit me. As long as you're willing to see a doctor, you can hit me however you want. "
After he said that, he really pulled her hand and slapped his face repeatedly.
Ning Jing really wanted to cry. When did she say that she didn't want to see a doctor? Every time Tang Li pulled her hand and slapped his face, her stomach would hurt for a while!
She wanted to break free, but unfortunately, she didn't have any strength.
"Jing Jing, are you happier now? As long as you're happy, I'll do anything you want. I really want to spend the rest of my life with you. That night, although … "
As Tang Li spoke, he pretended to smile helplessly before continuing, "No matter what, I'll take responsibility until the end. Jing Jing, I, Tang Li, will only love you in this lifetime. We'll live on Crouching Dragon Peak in the future and forget about all the complicated worldly affairs. We'll plant daisies all over Crouching Dragon Peak, okay? When autumn comes, the mountains and plains will be filled with your favorite flowers. I won't do anything. I'll sit with you in the sea of flowers every day and watch the sunrise and sunset. Okay? "
Ning Jing didn't react at all.
Tang Li asked again, "Jing Jing, give me a chance. Fall in love with me, okay?"
Finally, Ning Jing slowly raised her head. Her face was covered in tears.
Tang Li was shocked. He didn't expect that this woman, who seemed difficult to deal with, could be settled with just a few flowery words. He had to admit that he was quite disappointed.
Unexpectedly, Ning Jing suddenly burst into tears. "Boohoo … Tang Li, why isn't the doctor here yet?"
She was in so much pain that she was about to die!
The corners of Tang Li's mouth twitched a few times. Just as he was about to speak, Ning Jing suddenly cried out again and spat out a mouthful of black blood. Then, she fainted.
Tang Li was shocked. Only then did he realize that Ning Jing wasn't faking it. She was really in pain. This black blood was probably poisoned.
"Hey! Ning Jing, what's wrong? "
"Don't scare me. Hey, wake up!"
"Damn it!"
Tang Li shook Ning Jing a few times, but Ning Jing didn't react at all. He touched her hand and realized that her hand was unusually cold. He tested her breathing and was shocked to find that her breath was very weak. It could even be said that her breath was drifting.
"Ning Jing, we haven't settled our debts yet. If I dare to die, I won't let you off!" Tang Li warned angrily. He didn't realize that he was panicking.
Suddenly, Ning Jing retched a few times. Blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth. It was black blood again.
Tang Li was completely shocked. Without saying anything, he immediately got off the bed and ran out. He even forgot to put on his shoes.
When Auntie Shuang saw him coming out, she wanted to go up to him. However, Tang Li knocked her aside and used his qinggong to fly away. He went straight to the main hall of Crouching Dragon Peak.
"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law, where are you? "
"Sister-in-law, come out!"
"Sister-in-law, help! Sister-in-law! "
…
Tang Li shouted as he rushed into the main hall.
There was only one banquet table in the main hall. Tang Zijin and Madam Tang sat at the head of the table, followed by Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi. Seeing Tang Li come in barefooted and disheveled, everyone was dumbfounded. What was going on?
"Tang Li, what's wrong with you?" Tang Zijin asked sternly. Madam Tang quickly got up. "Ah Li, what's wrong? Did that brat Ning Jing bully you? "
Tang Li ignored her and rushed to Han Yunxi. "Sister-in-law, Ning Jing has been poisoned. Hurry and save her. Hurry!"
When he said this, everyone was shocked.
"How did she get poisoned?"
"What happened?"
"Who poisoned her?"
"Tang Li, what about you? Are you okay?"
…
Everyone started asking questions at once. Han Yunxi didn't waste any time and asked directly, "Do you know what poison she got? What are the symptoms? How long has it been? How is she now? "
When Han Yunxi opened her mouth, everyone shut up.
"I don't know. She said her stomach hurt and then she vomited black blood. I gave her some water. She hasn't eaten anything all day," Tang Li said anxiously. "Her whole body is cold and her breathing is very weak. Sister-in-law, hurry and save her. I beg you! "
Everyone listened carefully. When they heard Tang Li's last words, they all looked at each other. Madam Tang wondered if Tang Li was too pretentious. Why was he still pretending here?
She knew her son best. Other than Long Fei Ye, when had this boy ever said the word "beg" so easily?
"Let's go and take a look. Hurry!" Han Yunxi made a prompt decision.
Long Fei Ye stopped her and was about to remind her when Han Yunxi said, "Don't worry, I won't go in."
Although Ning Jing only brought a servant, Auntie Shuang, with her, they still had to be careful to avoid exposing their identities.
She told Tang Li, "Hurry up and find a doctor to check on her and tell me her pulse. Also, collect the blood she vomited and give it to me as soon as possible. I'll wait outside the courtyard."
Tang Li immediately went to do it. Long Fei Ye personally rushed over with Han Yunxi. At this juncture, Ning Jing couldn't die, especially not in the Tang Sect.
Soon, Tang Li collected the black blood and gave it to Han Yunxi. He also told her about the doctor's diagnosis. His hands trembled slightly as he held the plate of black blood.
Han Yunxi didn't even activate the detoxification system. She could tell at a glance that the poison in the blood was "Ghost Night Out".
She instantly understood what was going on.
Taking this poison would cause slight abdominal pain for three consecutive nights. After that, the body would need to recuperate for a month. This must be Ning Jing's trick. She wanted to avoid the wedding night and also wanted to avoid her mother-in-law making things difficult for her.
This was a good idea. Unfortunately, she wasn't very lucky.
Fragrances and pollen were the most taboo things for those who had taken the 'Night of Ghosts' poison. Once they encountered these two things and exceeded a certain amount, the poison would multiply, leading to true poisoning. It would cause severe abdominal cramps and even affect normal breathing.
Tang Li's room was full of flowers, and they were all fresh. It would be strange if she wasn't poisoned!
Fortunately, Tang Li was by her side and discovered it in time. Otherwise, this girl might really die on her wedding day.
Han Yunxi quickly made the antidote and gave it to Tang Li. Tang Li took it and ran back. Han Yunxi was in disbelief. She muttered to herself, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"What happened?" Long Fei Ye asked.
Han Yunxi told him the truth. Long Fei Ye didn't ask anything else. He only asked, "His room is full of flowers?"
"Yes, roses and Ning Jing's favorite daisies. Haha, I wanted to give Ning Jing a surprise. I didn't expect that I would almost kill her." Han Yunxi laughed.
"Is this what you mean by suppressing first and then showing off later?" Long Fei Ye asked again. It was rare for him to be interested in this kind of thing.
"It's to coax a girl. Let her be disappointed first, then give her a surprise. No matter how hard-hearted she is, she will be more or less touched." Han Yunxi laughed.
Long Fei Ye nodded thoughtfully. "What about you?"
