A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

347 Secret

After the shock, Ning Yue frowned. What kind of joke was this? How could she have been poisoned?

Yuan Hui said to Ning Yue very seriously, “I’m just guessing, and this guess is very likely.”

He told Ning Yue his reason. Ning Yue was speechless. So this poison would be transmitted to the fetus through the mother.

However, she did not feel poisoned. Her body knew it.

“I shouldn’t have been poisoned. I did a physical examination. Moreover, Divine Doctor Gu is my master. If I’m poisoned, he’ll definitely know,” Ning Yue said.

At the mention of Gu Yu, Ning Yue sighed heavily. It seemed that she had not seen him for a while. She wondered if he was doing well in the Miracle Doctor Valley.

“It would be best if you could confirm that there isn’t. I don’t want anything to happen to you, but I can’t be sure now because you’re not old enough,” Yuan Hui said.

Ning Yue was confused. Was being poisoned related to age? Speaking of which, didn’t Yuan Hui’s original body weaken after being poisoned before passing away and letting him transmigrate?

Yuan Hui knew what Ning Yue was thinking from her expression. He explained, “Everyone’s physique determines when the poison will act up.”

“Take your mother and I for example. We were poisoned at the same time, but my original body was born prematurely. My physique was not good, and the poison acted up not long after I was poisoned. My body has always been very weak, and your mother must have started to suffer from the poison after she was pregnant with you. Before the poison acts up, we wouldn’t know that you were poisoned,” Yuan Hui said.

Ning Yue fell silent. What Yuan Hui said was like the incubation period of a virus.

They might not be able to find out during the incubation period, but they would definitely be able to find out when the illness acted up.

“I don’t dare to gamble, so I have to get the antidote no matter what. It’s best if you’re fine. If anything happens, you can take the antidote immediately.” This was his true motive for letting Ning Yue come into contact with the seller of the house.

“But I’m really curious. He came to me and said that Eldest Cousin and Second Brother are in his hands. What does that mean?” Ning Yue said with a frown.

“I don’t know yet. I only know that he has something to tell you, and he doesn’t mean any harm,” Yuan Hui said.

Ever since he found Ning Yue, he had been searching for the antidote in this world.

Finally, he found out that someone had this antidote. As the antidote was precious, he knew who had it and did not dare to do anything rash.

He sent someone to pay close attention to this person. Later on, when he found out that this person wanted to see Ning Yue and confirmed that this person did not have any ill intentions towards her, he anxiously sent someone to inform Baili and ask him to do everything he could to guide Ning Yue to see this person.

No ill intentions? Ning Yue frowned deeply. She wasn’t sure. But speaking of poison, Ning Yue said to him, “I’ll take some of your blood later and test what poison you’re poisoned with.”

Speaking of blood, Ning Yue suddenly remembered that before they entered the capital, Ah Da had been poisoned. When she took his pulse, she couldn’t tell what the poison was, so she gave him a detoxification pill.

Moreover, in order to find out what poison Ah Da had been poisoned with, she had even taken his blood sample. However, that blood had been in the space all along. She had forgotten about it, and there was no time to test it.

Now that she had time, she could hurry up and test it.

“Alright, draw my blood.” As he spoke, Yuan Hui rolled up his sleeves.

Ning Yue hurriedly said to him, “There’s no need to draw blood. I’ll just prick your finger and get some blood.”

Ning Yue pretended to run back to her room.

In the room, she took out a clean test tube, cotton swab, and alcohol from her space. Then, she took out silver needles.

After returning to the study, Ning Yue pierced Yuan Hui’s finger with a silver needle and took out a little blood to put into the test tube.

“I’ll go back and see what’s inside first,” Ning Yue said as she jogged out of the study.

Yuan Hui looked at Ning Yue’s back and smiled. He knew that Ning Yue had her own secrets.

For example, a blood test was not a rare thing in the modern era, but this was in ancient times.

How did Ning Yue have test tubes and cotton swabs? Where was she going to test them?

These questions fully proved that Ning Yue had her own little secret.

However, he would not ask Ning Yue.
