Ugh....
One week!

Qin Yu felt like a terminally ill patient who had just been told by the doctor that his life was on a countdown, utterly despondent, unable to muster any hope.
He drove the pickup truck to the entrance of the Imperial Court Hotel, switched to his own BMW X5, and drove back to the urban village.
Yan Mingyu had given him three days off, originally planning to have a good time with his sister and grandfather at the East Sea, but now he was no longer in the mood.
After entering his house, he saw half a bottle of vodka on the table, unscrewed it, and poured it directly into his mouth, gulping it down.
"Burp...."
After guzzling half a bottle of vodka, Qin Yu’s head grew even fuzzier. He took out his cell phone, pressed the power button to turn it off, and then collapsed onto the bed.
He truly wished that when he woke up, time would have reset to the beginning, and he was still that delivery boy, without a rich and beautiful wife like Yan Mingyu, and had not encountered Miao Xian’er, the princess of the Gu King.
He could have lived out the rest of his life in a busy yet ordinary way, rather than now, with his heart full of entanglement and struggle, feeling like he was being roasted on a charcoal fire.
....
At this moment,At the Liu Family private hospital.
"Boss... big boss, the young boss might not make it."
To differentiate between Liu Zhixiong and his son, their subordinates usually referred to them as the big boss and the young boss.
Liu Yupan was bitten by Miao Xian’er’s Bloodline Snake last night. His bodyguards called the private hospital to send an ambulance, which picked them up and brought them over.
The bodyguard had broken ribs, which was an external injury, and surgery would fix it. But Liu Yupan wasn’t so lucky. The poison of the Bloodline Snake had penetrated his blood and nerves. The director and his team had personally tried to save him all night long but to no avail.
Seeing Liu Yupan’s neck swelling up like an ox’s, and his head swelling significantly as well, if this continued until tonight, he would have to go meet the King of Hell.
"Damn, when I employed you people for a hefty sum, you boasted like no one else, claiming to be the world’s top medical experts. Bullshit! You can’t even cure a snake venom, you’re not even as good as a country quack!"
Liu Zhixiong’s face was grim as he cursed from his wheelchair.
"We...."
The director and a bunch of medical experts kept their heads low, not daring to utter a sound.
Indeed, they had been in the medical field for so many years and had never seen such potent poison, seemingly immune to all serums. Unless they had enough time to develop a target-specific serum, but Liu Yupan clearly couldn’t hold on much longer.
"Big boss, I have a suggestion...."
At that moment, a doctor timidly raised his hand.
"Just fart it out!"
Liu Zhixiong said furiously.
"To untie the bell, one must use the bell ringer. This kind of Bloodline Snake is unique to Miaojiang. Perhaps they have the antidote. If it’s transported by plane, there should be enough time."
These doctors didn’t know about the grudge between Liu Yupan and Miao Xian’er; they thought someone had brought the Bloodline Snake from Miaojiang.
"You sure?"
Liu Zhixiong stared intently at the doctor.
Liu Yupan was his only son, and he was already old. Plus, being disabled, he was running out of time to rear another heir.
"The Miaojiang people are unparalleled in their poisoning skills; similarly, their antidote skills are beyond the reach of average people!"
The doctor said rather fittingly.
"Alright, you all get out!"
Liu Zhixiong waved them away, clearing out the doctors before lighting a cigar and taking deep puffs.
His face shifted between light and dark, and nobody knew what he was thinking at that moment.
It was a solid ten minutes later that he tilted his head toward his bodyguard, "Give me Yupan’s cell phone!"
"Yes!"
The bodyguard walked over to Liu Yupan and started searching his body.
"Let... me... Dad... save me...."
The strong desire to live made Liu Yupan barely open his eyes and say brokenly.
"Don’t worry, the big boss is figuring something out!"
The bodyguard patted Liu Yupan’s arm, softly consoling him.
They had once unanimously regarded this bodyguard as the number one thinker of the East Sea, their idol, who could turn clouds with a flip of his hand and rain with a cover of his hand, yet they did not know which step he had taken wrongly to end up in this plight.
"Boss, your phone!"
The bodyguard handed Liu Yupan’s mobile phone to Liu Zhixiong.

"Creak...."
Just as Liu Zhixiong was opening his son’s phone contacts to call Miao Xian’er, the door to the sickroom was pushed open.
"Hiss...."
A chill wind swept in, causing goosebumps on the backs of Liu Zhixiong and the two bodyguards.
Instinctively looking towards the door, there were two figures shrouded in black robes.
In broad daylight, their faces were indiscernible, as if enveloped by a layer of dark clouds.
"No need to seek Miao Xian’er, we can cure your son’s poison!"
One of the shadowy figures spoke up.
His voice was equally filled with a sinister chill, as if they were not the living, but demons that had crawled out from the eighteenth level of hell.
It sent shivers down one’s spine.
"Who... are you?"
Liu Zhixiong’s eyes filled with confusion. He didn’t know why these two mysterious figures had suddenly appeared and offered their help.
"We have our conditions. We’ve heard that the Liu Family has a five-hundred-year-old wild ginseng. We’ll take that, and in exchange, I’ll give you an antidote pill!"
Another black figure spoke.
The voice was equally sinister and devoid of any emotional warmth.
"Really? Good... okay... no problem!"
Liu Zhixiong agreed readily and tilted his head, "Bring that chest over here. If you can save my son, I’ll add another ten billion!"
"Deal!"
The two figures in black nodded together.
Soon, Liu Zhixiong’s bodyguards walked in carrying a chest. This was the "gift" Liu Yupan had prepared for Miao Xian’er the previous night; Ghost Granny had it, but after she fainted, the bodyguards from the Liu Family brought it to the hospital.
Click...
The bodyguard from the Liu Family opened the chest, revealing the wild ginseng and a bank card inside.
"This is the antidote!"
After glancing at the chest, one of the figures in black pulled out a red pill from his bosom, and said in a hoarse voice, "Miao Xian’er and Ghost Granny are already on their way to kill you. You’d best leave the country immediately to hide."
"Ah? Okay, okay..."
Liu Zhixiong was stunned for a moment, not expecting that these two men in black knew about Miao Xian’er and Ghost Granny.
"Forget that we were here, or it will not benefit you!"
After tossing the antidote to the bodyguard, the man in black took the chest from his hands and left the sickroom.
"Boss, they..."
The bodyguard glanced at the door of the sickroom, his face full of confusion, "Who are they? What’s their background?"
"How should I know? Don’t be too curious, or it might get you killed!"
Liu Zhixiong glared at the bodyguard before continuing, "What are you standing around for? Hurry up and give Yupan the antidote. If it works, we need to leave here immediately!"
"Yes!"
The bodyguard dared not say more, quickly stuffing the pill given by the man in black into Liu Yupan’s mouth and washing it down with some warm water.
In less than half a minute, Liu Yupan’s darkened neck began to deflate, his pale face gaining some color.
"Great, it’s effective. Contact everyone, meet at the airport in half an hour!"
Seeing that the antidote from the man in black was indeed effective, Liu Zhixiong’s spirits were immediately lifted.
Although the Yan Family had taken over some of their resources in the past two days, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse, and he had also established plenty of assets abroad over the years, enough for his family to live a secure life for the second half of their lives.
The only mystery was the background of these two men in black, and how they came to possess the antidote for the Miaojiang bloodline snake’s poison?
