Chapter 149 That thing must taste delicious
As Zhao Jinzhong spoke, he put a hand on Zhou Ruo's shoulder and looked at her.
Sheng Yueyi followed Zhao Jinzhong's gaze to Zhou Ruo, and only then did she realize the existence of this child.
A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but the moment she saw Zhou Ruo, her eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Huh? Such a small child saved me?"
"Hey! Miss, this is Princess Ji'an." Matters of etiquette still need to be taken care of by Granny Yang.
However, it's no wonder that the young master and young lady of the Marquis's mansion behaved so rudely.
It's hard to believe that such a young child possesses such remarkable medical skills.
After hearing what Granny Yang said, Sheng Yueyi finally focused her gaze on Zhou Ruo, "Princess?"
Zhou Ruo sighed softly, "Finally, it's my turn to speak..."
"Sister, what is that big, egg-shaped thing you eat that's black on the outside and white on the inside?"
Based on Zhou Ruo's description, Sheng Yueyi mentally sketched out what Zhou Ruo was talking about and quickly figured out what it was.
"That's... why are you asking this?" Sheng Yueyi's first reaction was that she didn't want to say.
My second reaction was, "How did you know I ate the Snake Spirit Fruit!"
"Snake Spirit Fruit?" Zhou Ruo was delighted; it was a fruit. "I want some too! Are there any more?"
Zhou Ruo liked the name as soon as she heard it, and she had never seen or eaten it in her previous life.
Seeing Sheng Yueyi enjoying her food so much, she guessed that it must be delicious.
Sheng Yueyi's feelings were complicated. "Child...no! Princess...tell me first, how did you know I ate the Snake Spirit Fruit?"
This Serpent Spirit Fruit is a rare item, and Wang Xingtian specially obtained it from Wang Yucong to please her.
It is said that eating the snake spirit fruit together with elixirs will make you more beautiful and radiant, and even surpass all the young ladies from noble families!
"I saw it!" Zhou Ruo said naturally.
"You...you...saw it?" Sheng Yueyi was shocked and somewhat flustered.
"Impossible! Young Master Wang secretly gave me this Serpent Spirit Fruit! He said he would only give it to me!"
After Sheng Yueyi finished speaking, she glanced at Zhao Jinzhong and immediately fell silent.
What did I just say?! I really want to take those words back!
Sheng Yueyi felt annoyed.
As the older brother, Sheng Aotian was completely unsettled.
He never imagined that Wang Xingtian would actually harm his own sister.
He never imagined that his sister would be so infatuated with a boy.
Not only is she a fangirl, she's also brainless!
Sheng Aotian forced himself to calm down; this matter needed to be considered carefully.
Zhao Jinzhong's focus is different from Sheng Aotian's.
He carefully observed every detail happening before his eyes, consciously or unconsciously connecting all the events in his mind.
He suddenly remembered that when Zhou Ruo entered Sheng Yueyi's room, she was interested in the snake spirit fruit that Sheng Yueyi had eaten.
Sheng Yueyi and her mother Su Wan took the same pills. Su Wan developed a rash first, and then her heart disease flared up.
Sheng Yueyi stopped at the stage of developing a rash and did not continue the attack. Instead, she amplified the effects of the rash until she fainted.
What caused the difference between her and her mother's conditions?
After a series of deductions, Zhao Jinzhong combined Zhou Ruo's state and reaction, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
He asked Zhou Ruo, "Ruo Ruo, what effect did the Snake Spirit Fruit have on Miss Sheng's illness?"
"Yes! Brother, you're so smart!" Zhou Ruo couldn't help but praise Zhao Jinzhong again.
Sheng Aotian was still processing the fact that his sister had been taken advantage of by Wang Xingtian when he heard Zhao Jinzhong say that the Snake Spirit Fruit had caused his sister's illness.
"Young General, what did you mean by that? Was it that fruit that turned Yueyi into a pig's head?"
Zhou Ruo shook her head, "It's not that eating the Snake Spirit Fruit will turn you into a pig's head."
"She ate both elixirs and snake spirit fruits. Also, this older sister has a heart-devouring disease, which is why she turned into a pig's head."
The conditions for turning into a pig's head are so rare, yet Sheng Yueyi just happened to encounter them. What kind of luck is that!
When Granny Yang heard Zhou Ruo say that Sheng Yueyi also had a heart attack, she felt a pang of anxiety.
"Princess, how come the eldest young lady also suffers from heart disease like the madam?"
"Yes, the Heart-Eating Disease is passed down to women, not men," Zhou Ruo explained.
Zhao Jinzhong sorted out his thoughts, "In other words, both the First Madam and the Eldest Miss suffer from heart disease."
However, this disease usually does not occur.
The lady developed a rash after taking the elixir, and then fell ill; the young lady developed a rash after taking the elixir, and then took the snake spirit fruit.
The heart disease didn't develop, but the rash spread and turned into...
"As expected of my brother!" Zhou Ruo gave Zhao Jinzhong a thumbs up.
After Zhao Jinzhong explained it to everyone, they all understood.
Sheng Yueyi's eyes were fixed on Zhao Jinzhong, unable to look away. His speech had made her blush and her heart race.
Sheng Aotian clenched his fists, and Wang Xingtian's face instantly flashed into his mind.
He gritted his teeth and spoke to the face in his mind.
"It's all Wang Xingtian's fault! Why did he have to encourage us to buy those pills? He almost killed my mother and sister!"
This was the same question that Zhao Jinzhong had wanted to ask Sheng Aotian when he was in Su Wan's room.
"Yes, Young Master Sheng, why did Wang Xingtian suggest you buy these pills in the first place? Was it because they'd make you more beautiful?"
Sheng Aotian thought back, if it was just because eating it could make you more beautiful, what did that have to do with Wang Xingtian?
He doesn't have a wife, so why is he so interested in this kind of elixir?
Sheng Aotian suddenly realized that Wang Xingtian might have had other reasons for encouraging everyone to buy pills.
He turned to look at Sheng Yueyi and asked her seriously, "Do you know?"
"I..." Sheng Yueyi stammered, her eyes darting away.
"So you knew! Tell me!" Sheng Aotian suddenly shouted, startling Sheng Yueyi so much that her body trembled.
He said... he helped his cousin sell pills, and his cousin had all kinds of pills.
Some cure diseases, some rejuvenate the appearance, some make people smarter, some make them grow taller... and so on...
Sheng Aotian found it increasingly unbelievable as he listened. "What else?!"
Sheng Yueyi was startled by Sheng Aotian again, and suddenly became aggrieved, "Why are you so fierce! It's not like I sold these pills!"
Hearing that he had been interrupted at a crucial point, Zhao Jinzhong pressed Sheng Yueyi for an answer: "Miss Sheng, is there anything else?"
When Zhao Jinzhong asked her this, Sheng Yueyi instantly stopped feeling wronged. A slight smile appeared on her face, and she blushed as she said...
"There are also elixirs that can grant immortality."
"Do you know where these pills he's selling come from?"
This young general is so handsome and charming, and he speaks so gently, unlike his brother, who is both stupid and fierce.
Of course, Sheng Yueyi needed to know the answer to the question he asked!
"I remember Wang Xingtian mentioning that it came from the Jingxi Pharmacy in the west of the capital," Sheng Yueyi recalled.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Aotian's blood pressure rose, and his face turned red.
He was so angry that he stammered, "Sheng! Yueyi! You...you actually...ran away with him to...Jingjingxi?"
"Did he do anything to you? You wouldn't...?"
"Brother! What nonsense are you talking about!" Sheng Yueyi was so angry at Sheng Ao that her lungs swelled up, but at the same time she didn't forget to glance at Zhao Jinzhong.
"I went with him to the west because the snake spirit fruit grows in the backyard of their Jingxi Pharmacy."
He said he'd give me a concoction that would make me more beautiful, and what girl doesn't love beauty...?
As Sheng Yueyi spoke, she observed Zhao Jinzhong's expression.
She was worried that her words would give Zhao Jinzhong a bad impression, so she wanted to explain more.
