I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot

Chapter 275 - 275 Entering the Zhen Family for the First Time



275 Entering the Zhen Family for the First Time

It would be impossible to say that Sang Qianqian was not touched.

However, she was not willing to accept Xie Shi’an’s favor, because she could not give anything back in return.

“Shi’an,” she said with mixed feelings, “I appreciate your kindness, but this is about Hanyu. I’d like to do it myself.”

Sang Qianqian’s attitude was within Xie Shi’an’s expectations. However, he was still a little disappointed.

He knew that he would not be able to persuade Sang Qianqian, so he could only take a step back. “When do you plan to test the medicine?”

“Tonight,”

Sang Qianqian said, “Tomorrow, I’ll go to the Zhen family with Director Miao.”

“Then I’ll accompany you to test the medicine tonight.”

Xie Shi’an said, “I used to be a doctor, so I can help you a little. I don’t want to delay Shen Hanyu’s treatment if something really happens.”

Sang Qianqian had actually already made all sorts of preparations and was confident that the possibility of problems occurring during the testing process was close to zero.

However, Xie Shi’an’s last sentence made her hesitate for a moment.

It was better to be safe than sorry.

If something really happened and affected Shen Hanyu’s treatment, it would not be worth it.

She thought for a while. “Alright, come with me.”

The so-called medicine testing was to take the poison first, and when the symptoms acted up, she would then take the antidote.

The poison that Shen Hanyu had been poisoned with was one of the scariest poisons in nature.

The terrifying thing was that once it entered a person’s body, it would launch a series of fatal attacks. At first, it would be an intense and unbearable pain, then it would gradually invade the organs and destroy the human body’s functions in all aspects.

Of course, Sang Qianqian would not wait until the second stage. She only needed to wait for the pain to come and immediately take the antidote.

In view of the missing key data in the detoxification method, there were four possibilities, and four antidotes had been concocted.

In other words, Sang Qianqian would need to test the medicine four times before she could find the real antidote.

Even though Sang Qianqian had already mentally prepared herself for this and knew what kind of torture this poison could bring, she still felt that she could handle it.

However, she had consumed the antidote in no time.

After taking the medicine, it would take more than ten minutes to take effect.

In these ten minutes, Sang Qianqian’s internal organs were in so much pain that it felt like they were being sliced apart bit by bit. Her face was pale and her vision was turning black. She could not even focus.

Fortunately, after enduring the difficult ten minutes, the antidote began to take effect, and the intense pain gradually subsided. But immediately after, a strong sense of dizziness came.

Sang Qianqian felt the world spinning around her. It was as if someone was beating a drum in her head. Every beat was so loud that it made her heart palpitate and she started to panic.

After about half an hour, the palpitations and dizziness gradually subsided.

Sang Qianqian leaned against the soft couch, exhausted. Her face was as white as paper, and the back of her clothes was soaked with cold sweat.

Xie Shi’an did not look any better than her. When the poison took effect, it was scarier than he had expected.

He nervously watched Sang Qianqian’s condition without blinking. “How is it? The antidote, does it work?”

Sang Qianqian shook her head. “No, the side effects of dizziness and palpitations are very obvious.”

She took a moment to calm herself down before she started the second test.

The antidote she took this time was still wrong. Although the dizziness and palpitations had subsided a little, it still existed.

Only the third time was relatively normal.

Not long after she took the antidote, the pain disappeared. She only felt a little weaker, but she did not feel dizzy.

It seemed that the third medicine was likely to be the correct antidote.

However, to be on the safe side, Sang Qianqian still tried the fourth option.

Perhaps the pain from the previous few times had consumed too much of her energy. This time, even though Sang Qianqian gritted her teeth as hard as she could, she was still unable to resist the pain that was like a tidal wave.

She was biting her lips so much that they bled, and she couldn’t help but groan in pain.

After taking the antidote, although it didn’t hurt anymore, her dizziness became worse, and she actually fell into a short coma.

Obviously, this was the drug with the most serious side effects.

Xie Shi’an hurriedly wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, his heart clenching.

Luckily, Sang Qianqian slowly woke up a few minutes later.

“The correct antidote is the third type, so the missing number is 1.5 mg.”

Although she was still light-headed, her eyes were shining with excitement and joy.

Xie Shi’an was pleased, but he also felt a little sad and bitter. He was so envious of Shen Hanyu for being able to obtain Sang Qianqian’s love and dedication.

He had only met her a year later than Shen Hanyu, but they already had no chance together.

The next day, at the Zhen family’s residence.

Sang Qianqian had grown up in a luxurious villa, but when she got out of the car with Director Miao and was led inside by the Zhen family’s servants, she was still shocked by the magnificence of the Zhen family’s courtyard.

As expected of the number one family in the capital, the size of the house was simply unimaginable.

The courtyards, pavilions, and pagodas were arranged in a picturesque disorder. Although it was winter now, one could imagine how grand the scene was when the flowers bloomed in spring.

Even the Imperial Palace in ancient times was not as powerful as this.

...

No, perhaps this place was even better than the Imperial Palace. Due to the era and technology, this house was incomparably advanced and convenient. This was something that even the ancient emperors could not compare to.

Old Lady Zhen and Zhen Yiping were waiting for Director Miao and Sang Qianqian in the living room of the third house.

It was very cold outside, but the hall was warm.

Old Lady Zhen had a head full of silver hair and a noble temperament. A cat with snow-white fur was lying on her lap, and it was obvious that it was an extremely precious pet.

As for Zhen Yiping, he was in his forties, but perhaps because of his outstanding appearance and temperament, he looked much younger than his actual age.

As the head of the huge Zhen family, Zhen Yiping looked very elegant and quiet. At first glance, one would have the illusion of gentleness, but after a second look, one would feel the invisible and deep pressure of a person who had been in power for a long time. In front of him, one would subconsciously be cautious and not dare to make any rash moves.

After a brief introduction, Sang Qianqian obediently sat beside Director Miao. Soon, a servant brought in some tea and snacks.

Old Lady Zhen’s kind but dignified gaze swept past Sang Qianqian. “This Miss Qianqian, is she Leshan’s assistant?”

Director Miao’s full name was Miao Leshan. He had seen the old lady of the Zhen family a few times before, so he was quite close to her.

Director Miao waved his hand. “I can’t call her my assistant. We’re merely colleagues.”

“I had specially sent someone to ask you before if you had any research on antidotes.”

...

Old Lady Zhen stroked the cat on her lap unhurriedly. “At that time, you told me that you were not good at this field. How come you can do it now?”

“I really don’t have much research on antidotes.”

Director Miao chuckled and pointed at Sang Qianqian. “However, she does.”
