After a long time, the black ball moved and reached out to grab Yin Chujin again. “Save… me…”

Yin Chujin squatted down and took her pulse. She frowned again and pulled off the black cloth on the woman’s face. Under the moonlight, she saw a face that was blackened by poison. Her lips trembled and her face was covered in cold sweat. “Who poisoned you?”

The woman in black grabbed Yin Chujin’s skirt tightly and fainted the next moment.

Yin Chujin sighed. She was not a busybody, but now that she was in this situation, she could not leave or stay. She could not bring her back to the Xiao Manor, right? She had climbed over the wall. She could not carry an unconscious person back. Moreover, she did not know the background of this woman in black. If she rashly saved her, she might get herself killed. But if she did not do anything and left, this woman would die here…

In the modern era, even if she didn’t see it with their own eyes, she knew that many people had died from the poisons she developed. However, she was a medical student after all. Gritting her teeth, Yin Chujin struggled to support the woman in black and dragged her out of the alley. Finally, she stopped in front of a small medical hall with a sign that said “Benevolence Hall”.

“Open the door…” Yin Chujin knocked on the door with her free hand.

After a while, she heard an old man mutter, “Who is it? Can you let me sleep at night? Come tomorrow for the treatment.”

“Open the door!” Yin Chujin ignored his mutterings and knocked on the door, determined to call him out.

Finally, the old man dawdled and opened the door. However, when he saw the clothes of the two people outside, he immediately wanted to close the door.

Yin Chujin seemed to have expected him to do this. In the next moment, she pressed her hand against the door and refused to let him close it. At the same time, she glared at him coldly. “As a doctor, how can you let down your medical ethics by rejecting a patient?”

The old man trembled and waved his hand. “Miss, it’s obvious that the girl beside you has been deeply poisoned. This is just a small medical center. You should choose another place. Turn down a street. ‘Myriad Medicine Workshop’ is the largest medical center in our capital. Miss, why don’t you go there?”

Yin Chujin smiled and shook her head firmly. “I’ll choose your Benevolence Hall. Open the door!”

“Miss, we really can’t save her here. She’s too poisoned…”

“I’ll save her! All you need to do is provide herbs. Take this ingot of silver!” As she spoke, Yin Chujin took out a silver ingot from her pocket and handed it to the old man.

“But…”

“What other buts?”

“What if… this girl’s enemies… our clinic is really just a small clinic. We can’t afford to offend a big enemy…”

“I’ll take responsibility if anything happens. Once she wakes up, let her leave. I won’t implicate you here.”

Seeing her promise so confidently, the old man hesitated for a while before finally letting them in. In front of the hall, a ten-year-old boy was rubbing his sleepy eyes and standing there in a daze.

“Ming’er, why are you up? Go to sleep!” The old man waved his hand to let the little boy leave.

The little boy looked at the old man for a while, then at Yin Chujin and the others. Finally, he ran to the old man’s side and blocked him. “Don’t bully my grandfather…”

Yin Chujin understood what they were worried about. She pursed her lips and explained, “Don’t worry, I won’t harm you and your granddaughter. I’ll borrow the medicine here to cure this girl’s poison and leave.”

The old man stroked the little boy’s head and pulled him behind him. Then, he pointed at the hall. “The medicine is inside.”

“Thank you!” Yin Chujin nodded at him and continued to drag the unconscious woman in black towards the hall.

The little boy poked his head out and observed for a long time. He seemed to sense that they had no ill intentions and took the initiative to come out from behind the old man to help.

After working for half the night, she finally fed her the medicine she had concocted and bandaged her injuries. Yin Chujin, the old man, and the little boy were so tired that they didn’t want to move. It was almost dawn, but the woman in black still showed no signs of waking up. Yin Chujin looked at the sky and leaned against the bed, thinking about whether she could let go and leave.

“It’s almost dawn. I’ll go back first. I’ve helped her detoxify her poison. If she wakes up, just let her leave!”

Seeing that Yin Chujin was about to leave, the old man hurriedly stopped her. “Miss, isn’t she… your friend? Isn’t it not good to leave her alone?”
