The Invincible Doctor of the Female Village Chief-Chapter 649: Sit Back and Enjoy the Show

Liu Zixuan walked out of the room without any hesitation, and it was this decisive turn that left Ye Lianyi restless for a long time.

Liu Zixuan had no need to remind her of these things, after all, the two had just met and didn’t really understand each other yet.

But he still came, and it didn’t seem like he was intentionally trying to provoke the relationship between the elders of the Medical Immortal Sect.

That night, Ye Lianyi was almost sleepless. Her mind was filled with Liu Zixuan’s words and the image of his departing back.

...

The next morning.

Bai Jingjing opened her sleepy eyes, looked at Liu Zixuan sitting on the chair, and asked, "Didn’t you sleep at all last night?"

"With such a beauty like you in a strange environment, I have to protect you closely. What if someone takes advantage of you!"

Liu Zixuan stood up, stretched lazily, and said with a cheeky smile, "How’s that? Are you moved? Do you feel an urge to jump into my arms?"

"Not at all!" Bai Jingjing got dressed and walked towards the bathroom, adding, "No one would dare to take advantage, but you do it every day. And while you’re at it, you’re eyeing other women too!"

"Quite a sour mood early in the morning!" Liu Zixuan grinned and opened the room door, walking out.

Near the mountains, the air was extremely fresh. He stretched his arms a few times and happened to see the Fifth Elder passing by outside the door.

"Mr. Liu is up so early." The Fifth Elder greeted.

"I’ve gotten used to early risings. What’s the Fifth Elder up to?" Liu Zixuan asked.

"Worried that you might not be used to our usual breakfast, I went to tell the kitchen to whip up something better for you."

Listening to the Fifth Elder’s words, Liu Zixuan smiled meaningfully, "It must be delicious, otherwise I won’t eat it!"

The Fifth Elder’s eyes flashed a trace of peculiar color, then he nodded, "Rest assured, it will satisfy you."

Watching the Fifth Elder head to the kitchen, Bai Jingjing also came out, "I remember you’re not picky about breakfast. Are you deliberately making it difficult for the Medical Immortal Sect?"

Liu Zixuan reached out with his right hand and pulled Bai Jingjing directly into his arms.

Seeing his expression, Bai Jingjing immediately wanted to break free, "What are you doing!"

Liu Zixuan took an elixir from his pocket and fed it to Bai Jingjing, "Keep it down, there’ll be some extra things in today’s breakfast."

"Extra things?" Bai Jingjing swallowed the elixir fed by Liu Zixuan without guarding herself, then pondered over his words and immediately glared, "Poison?"

Liu Zixuan nodded, "I just fed you the Heart Protection Pill because I’m still unsure what poison they’ll use, so I can’t provide the exact antidote. But this pill will ensure the toxin doesn’t reach your heart and lungs. After dealing with the poisoner, I’ll detoxify you."

Bai Jingjing frowned slightly, "How did you know someone would poison it?"

"Couldn’t sleep last night, wandered around the Medical Immortal Sect, happened to discover a pair of scoundrels plotting poison." Liu Zixuan shrugged, "Alright, Xiangyang should be arriving soon, let’s go greet him and get ready for breakfast."

Bai Jingjing was somewhat puzzled, since Liu Zixuan knew about the poison, why didn’t he stop it earlier? However, due to the complexity of the situation, she didn’t inquire further.

The two of them left the Medical Immortal Sect, and after about ten minutes, Xiangyang also arrived.

"Weren’t you bringing cash?" Bai Jingjing wondered aloud.

Xiangyang laughed, "Nowadays it’s all checks or bank cards, if it were all cash, where would you get that much? If there were, I’d need several trucks to haul it over!"

Bai Jingjing chuckled awkwardly, "I’m not fully awake yet, my mind is all fuzzy!"

"Seems like neither of you got much sleep at the Medical Immortal Sect." Xiangyang leaned towards Liu Zixuan and asked, "Nothing happened, right?"

"Not yet." Liu Zixuan said, taking out another elixir and handing it to Xiangyang.

"What’s this supposed to mean?"

"Just take it, only benefits, no harm. Don’t ask anything else, I’ll tell you when the time comes." Liu Zixuan said.

Xiangyang’s eyes rolled, then he swallowed the elixir.

"Oh, President Xiang is here too, perfect timing to dine together." At this time, the Fifth Elder called from the doorway.

Everyone followed the Fifth Elder to the dining hall. The dining hall of the Medical Immortal Sect wasn’t as luxurious as those in the city.

"Where’s the Great Elder?" The Sixth Elder asked.

"I’m here!" Ye Lianyi appeared too.

As everyone was present, they all took their seats.

The Sixth Elder served the dishes onto the table, while the Fifth Elder busied himself with serving porridge to everyone.

Ye Lianyi looked at Liu Zixuan with a peculiar gaze but said nothing.

"Ahem." Bai Jingjing kicked Liu Zixuan under the table, coughing towards him.

Liu Zixuan turned to look, "Why is Miss Ripple staring at me like that? Could it be you’ve fallen for me?"

Ye Lianyi frowned, "Last night you..."

"Here’s the porridge!"

Before Ye Lianyi could finish her sentence, the Fifth Elder brought over the porridge, so Ye Lianyi couldn’t continue asking.

"Everyone, try this preserved egg and lean meat porridge, it’s something we usually don’t get to drink. Only because you esteemed guests are here did the cook make it." The Fifth Elder said with a smile.

"These are freshly made steamed buns from this morning, everyone try them!" The Sixth Elder chimed in.

Knowing about the poison, Bai Jingjing didn’t rush to pick up her chopsticks but looked towards Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan shrugged slightly, picked up a bun, took a bite, and laughed, "Hmm, tastes good, everyone try it!"

With that, Xiangyang and Bai Jingjing, among others, began eating.

However, the moment everyone started eating, a peculiar glint flashed in the eyes of both the Fifth and Sixth Elders.

Ye Lianyi ate two bites of the buns, drank some soup, and with her medical skills, didn’t sense any trace of poison. She glanced at Liu Zixuan, secretly wondering if he deliberately misled her last night, causing discord within the Medical Immortal Sect?

Once breakfast was finished, everyone showed no abnormal symptoms and no signs of poisoning.

Liu Zixuan laid down his chopsticks, "Sufficiently fed and watered, let’s discuss business now."

The Fifth Elder’s eyes lit up, "Alright, let’s sign the contract."

Everyone left the dining hall, heading towards the reception room. On the way, Bai Jingjing quietly asked, "Didn’t you say someone poisoned it?"

"The poison’s effects will kick in a few hours later. During the meal, I already determined what poison was used. If nothing unexpected happens, symptoms of poisoning should appear after about two hours."

Liu Zixuan gently held Bai Jingjing’s soft hand, "Act like nothing’s happening, wait and watch the show later!"
