Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife

Chapter 28 - Cold Poison (2)

The moment Su Xiaofei fell on the ground, she felt like her whole body trembled in somewhat familiar pain. She felt like her head was larger than usual and the weight of her body had been multiplied, as she couldn't even lift a finger.

All of these felt oddly familiar to her. How can she not know? Weren't these all the symptoms she once had in her past life? The cold poison was slowly accumulating in her body, until it was too late for her to realize what hit her.

Before she married Mo Yuchen in her past life, Su Xiaofei had already experienced these early symptoms she was having right now. At the time of their divorce, Su Xiaofei had suffered episodes of chronic pain, seizures and vomiting blood caused by the cold poison.

As for how she ended up being poisoned, it was only in the end did she find out that Ye Mingyu was the one who was slowly feeding her poison throughout the years. It was for this reason that when Lu Qingfeng found out about it, it was too late for him to find a genius doctor that could detoxify the poison from her body.

Su Xiaofei never thought she would experience the same thing all over again. A minute under the pain felt like an eternity for Su Xiaofei. Even when Yun Xiang lifted her up, her eyes were starting to blur and losing their focus as her body started to react to the poison in her bloodstream.

As she struggled to keep her consciousness, Su Xiaofei wondered about the odds that Ye Mingyu wasn't truly oblivious to what was happening. How was it possible that the poison that killed her in her past life was the same poison used in the attempt on Master Ouyang's life?

The more she thought about it, the more Su Xiaofei was leaning to believe that Ye Mingyu might be connected to those men. Heh, wouldn't this mean that the innocent and well-mannered woman that everyone was praising was just a facade of Ye Mingyu after all?

'Am I dying?' She wondered, hoping that this wasn't just another wistful dream she had. Had she fallen into some kind of illusion that she was able to change the course of events of her life, only for her to meet a red flag in the end?

Su Xiaofei wasn't sure how long it had been since the attack and why Yun Xiang was holding her. She struggled to remain conscious for Xi Qian's sake, but she still succumbed to the darkness that was waiting for her. As her consciousness faded, her last thought was that of Lu Qingfeng.

She had no idea what happened next, but she was certain that Master Ouyang would hold himself responsible for what happened to her. He can't possibly ignore the fact that she was injured because of him.

The next time she opened her eyes, the ceiling above her was unrecognizable. Su Xiaofei had no idea where she was and what happened to her after she lost consciousness. When she heard a gasp next to her, she turned her eyes to her right and saw Xi Qian's eyes that were filled with tears.

"Qian…" She suddenly thought her voice was somewhat hoarse.

Xi Qian shook her head and smiled, despite the fact that pearls of tears escaped her eyes.

"It's okay, Feifei. You are fine now. Master Han here has treated your wound." She told Su Xiaofei.

It was only then did Su Xiaofei realize that there was another person standing next to Xi Qian. The man had a gentle smile on his face and was dressed traditionally. He gave Su Xiaofei a polite smile as Xi Qian helped her to sit up.

"W-what happened to me?" Su Xiaofei asked the doctor.

"Miss, don't you remember? You were stabbed right outside our door. You are lucky that you were so close to us, as we managed to force the poison out from your body even before it settled."

"I-I was poisoned?" She stuttered, pretending to be oblivious of what happened earlier. "Am I going to die?"

Since this man looked knowledgeable about the cold poison that had entered her body, Su Xiaofei decided to fish out some information about it.

Han Zijun shook his head. "No. The poison isn't sufficient to kill you. However, if more of it entered your bloodstream, the damage it would leave in your body would be irreversible. Your internal organs will collapse one after another until your body shuts down on its own."

Su Xiaofei already knew about this because this was the same poison that killed her in her past life. According to the last doctor who checked on her, the poison that accumulated in her body was already bone-deep and impossible to be removed anymore. Had she been diagnosed earlier, she would have a better chance of survival.

However, from what she had heard from the said doctor, the cold poison was hard to obtain by normal people. It was also hard for normal people to know that they were poisonous because it had no scent nor any lingering taste that could give away its presence.

Since then, Su Xiaofei had been wondering how Ye Mingyu managed to obtain such poison, though she was able to find out Ye Mingyu's methods of poisoning her. Now that she had experienced being poisoned for the second time, the circumstantial evidence was pointing to Ye Mingyu's involvement with those who wanted to harm Master Ouyang.

"So what would happen to me then?" She asked Han Zijun, wanting to know how good this doctor was.

"Miss, don't worry. I was able to extract most of the poison. Although the remaining poison in your body is small, it would cause you some discomfort and fever within the next three days. I will give you some oral medication to expel the remaining poison.. Just to be sure, please come here, so I could check on you."
