Chapter 579: Chapter 285: You Were Gambled Away to be the Kunlun Ruins Sect Leader’s Disciple Wife_4
"That’s impossible! The Medicine King crafted personally by Senior Sister is the king of all medicines in the world, capable of curing any lethal poison. Its fragrance is rich, filled with spiritual energy, and looks like a pearl. With such obvious characteristics, how could I have mistaken it?"
"But why hasn’t Senior Sister woken up yet?"
"What should we do? Kunlun Ruins is approaching. Master is afraid Senior Sister will blame him and run away. If Senior Sister doesn’t wake up, who will be in charge?"
As the muttering continued, Yun Wanqing’s consciousness became clearer, and her heavy eyelids felt lighter.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw a slender, youthful figure. A girl, seemingly in her teens, was wearing a mint-green modern Chinese long dress, with half of her long hair pinned up with a wooden hairpin, and the rest falling over her shoulders.
Yun Wanqing was momentarily stunned.
Is this... Junior Sister Qinghuan?
Has she returned?
How could it be???
"Qing, Qinghuan..."
She tentatively called out, causing Ji Qinghuan to visibly pause for a moment before she quickly lowered her head to look at her, her crescent-shaped eyes filled with surprise and delight.
"Wow, Senior Sister, you’re awake! That’s great. I knew it. How could I pick the wrong medicine? The Medicine King crafted personally by Senior Sister couldn’t possibly fail to cure a poison."
"Senior Sister, it’s really wonderful that you’re awake. Oh, right, Senior Sister, don’t we always have contracted Drug Testers in our sect? Why did you test the medicine yourself?"
Every year, the Medicine King Sect selects hundreds of terminally ill patients from the general public, offering to cure their diseases in exchange for them becoming Drug Testers.
Therefore, the sect never lacks Drug Testers.
"If I hadn’t arrived in time, you really might have been poisoned to death..."
"Wait, no, isn’t Senior Sister immune to all poisons? How could she be poisoned? Did Senior Sister’s newly crafted poison surpass even the Poison King’s, overwhelming even her constitution?"
"Senior Sister, we’re the Medicine King Sect. How could you craft such a domineering poison?"
The young girl babbled incessantly like a mosquito, making the newly awakened Yun Wanqing feel her head aching severely, almost to the point of explosion.
She weakly reached out to gently rub her temple, trying to stop the girl from continuing her chatter.
"Hold on, Qinghuan, please stop talking for a moment."
Ji Qinghuan: "..."
What’s wrong?
Why doesn’t Senior Sister want her to speak? Has she fallen out of favor?
No, please...
Ji Qinghuan puffed out her cheeks and closed her mouth, her bewildered eyes looking inquisitively at her dear Senior Sister.
After taking a few deep breaths, her head finally felt less painful, and Yun Wanqing opened her eyes to look around. Everything in sight was so familiar.
Indeed, this was her room, the place where she had taken the wrong medicine. On the table beside her lay the phone she’d recently bought but hadn’t used much.
So this wasn’t a dream. She had really returned?
Yun Wanqing quickly picked up her phone, eager to check the date. To her dismay, no matter how she pressed, the phone remained black-screened, likely due to the battery being dead.
"Qinghuan, what day is it today? How long have I been... um, unconscious?"
"Hehe, today’s the twenty-third. Senior Sister has been out for three days."
Ji Qinghuan tilted her head, her smile charming and sweet, looking extraordinarily beautiful.
Upon hearing this, Yun Wanqing was stunned.
What?
Only three days have passed?
How is that possible?
She clearly lived in that world for so long, how could it have only been three days?
Could it be that it wasn’t a so-called book transmigration, but rather a hallucination caused by the poison? Was everything in that world just a figment of her imagination?
No, that’s not right. Everything felt so real. The Yun Family was so vibrant and lifelike. She couldn’t believe it was all just a dream.
"Uh, Senior Sister, are you with us?"
Seeing her lost deeply in thought, as if she’d lost her soul, Ji Qinghuan couldn’t help but wave her hand in front of her eyes.
"I have something very important to tell you, Senior Sister."
"Hmm? What’s up?"
Yun Wanqing snapped back to reality, frowning in confusion.
"Did you hear what I said earlier? A few days ago, Master made a bet with the Kunlun Ruins Sect Leader and lost, wagering you to be the Kunlun Ruins Sect Leader’s disciple-wife~"
"The Kunlun Ruins Sect Leader is afraid Master might default on the bet, so he sent someone to our sect today with a betrothal gift. According to Junior Brother Fu Feng, the Kunlun Ruins’ people are almost here..."
What?
Master wagered her to Kunlun Ruins???
She was only asleep for three days, and already such absurd and ridiculous things had happened?
Yun Wanqing was both angered and amused.
Arranged marriages were abolished after the founding of the nation, yet Master didn’t hesitate to gamble her away to Kunlun Ruins, making it even less than an arranged marriage.
Ha, such bold moves indeed!!!
"Where is Master?"
"Uh, afraid of being questioned by you, Master has already run away..."
Yun Wanqing: "..."
He dared to gamble her away and then run???
He better pray she never finds him in this lifetime!!!
