Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

"Hmm?" Tao Qiming waited curiously for her next words.

After some hesitation, Ji Xinying finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Doctor Tao, your medical skills are so superb, can you also help my father with his leg injury?"

"If I leave, all my treasures will be yours. Can you help my father heal his leg?" she asked sincerely.

Ji Xinying looked at Tao Qiming with hope. In the past few days, she had witnessed with her own eyes Dr. Tao's superb medical skills, which were better than any famous doctor she had ever seen.

She thought that perhaps only Dr. Tao could help her father recover his health.

Tao Qiming was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that she would still think about someone else at this moment. Ji Xinying's eyes were full of pleading, which made him unable to refuse.

Finally, Tao Qiming nodded and said, "I will try my best."

"Really? That's great!" Ji Xinying felt relieved and a smile broke out on her face.

"My father is a good man, handsome, smart and kind." She listed her father's merits. "But he hasn't started a family yet..."

"But as long as his leg is cured, there will be many people willing to marry him. Then, we can go to the Jiang Mansion and propose marriage openly!"

Ji Xinying talked to herself, completely unaware of Tao Qiming's increasingly confused expression.

Tao Qiming looked at her in confusion. The Jiang family proposed marriage? To whom? Miss Jiang was already betrothed to Si Yan, what was going on?

Ji Xinying seemed to be in a good mood. She sat back in her chair and prepared to receive treatment.

"I'm ready, Doctor Tao, please start."

Tao Qiming was surprised to see such an optimistic patient who seemed to not care about her situation at all. The detoxification process could be fatal if she was not careful, but she acted as if she didn't care.

"it is good."

Tao Qiming adjusted his mentality and said seriously: "I will start from your palm and insert the needle to guide the toxin to your heart, and then remove it all at once. This process will be very painful, so you must be prepared."

"I can hold on," Ji Xinying said calmly. Years of severe pain had made her accustomed to pain, and the discomfort caused by this treatment was nothing in comparison.

She didn't want to sit and wait for death, so she decided to take a risk. If she succeeded, it would be the best result; even if she failed, it would be a relief for her.

"Thank you, Dr. Tao!" she said softly.

Tao Qiming's hand paused for a moment, then continued to operate.

As the silver needle gently pierced the acupuncture point, black lines immediately appeared on Ji Xinying's hand, and the poison quickly gathered. Her face turned pale, and she gritted her teeth to endure the severe pain as if her skin was torn.

Tao Qiming was focused as he carefully inserted silver needles into the patient's skin. Soon, the whole body was covered with silver needles.

"Now we're going to perform acupuncture on the neck." Tao Qiming said as he turned to Ji Xinying's delicate neck and started a new round of treatment.

Outside the door, Ye Yunzi and Lord Ji were anxious, their brows furrowed, their eyes fixed on the door, afraid that any sound would disturb Tao Qiming's work.

Suddenly, a suppressed groan was heard from the room.

Lord Ji's body trembled suddenly, and he instinctively wanted to push the wheelchair in to check. Ye Yunzi immediately pressed the handle of the wheelchair, shook her head, and signaled him to be patient. Lord Ji barely resisted the urge.

Time seemed to slow down abnormally, and every second was tormenting for Lord Ji. He clenched his fists, his heart filled with anger and helplessness, not understanding why his innocent daughter had to endure such pain.

Finally, the silence was broken by the sound of a door slowly opening.

Lord Ji looked up, his heart beating faster. He was so nervous that he couldn't speak, afraid of hearing bad news.

Ye Yunzi took a deep breath and asked as calmly as possible: "Doctor Tao, what's the situation?"

Tao Qiming stepped aside, sighed and said, "You will know when you go in and take a look."

Lord Ji felt a chill in his heart and immediately drove into the room. "Yingying!"

Ye Yunzi observed Tao Qiming's expression, understood his character, and saw hope in his reaction.

"Is Miss Ji really okay?"

Tao Qiming frowned slightly: "You saw through everything? I wanted to give you a little surprise."

"This trick of yours won't work on Lord Ji." Ye Yunzi smiled slightly.

"Be careful or he'll come back to settle the score with you."

When Lord Ji entered the room, what he saw was a pool of dark blood, which made him feel dizzy for a moment.

"Yingying..." He trembled as he approached the bed and gently stroked his daughter's pale face.

"It's my father's incompetence."

At this moment, the girl on the bed frowned slightly and slowly opened her eyes.

"Father?"

"Yingying!" Lord Ji was stunned at first, then he was filled with joy.

"Your poison has been lifted!"

Ji Xinying looked around in confusion, not understanding what was happening. She only remembered that when the last needle was placed, she felt a sharp pain in her chest and vomited a mouthful of black blood, and then she lost consciousness.

"Father, I'm still alive..." she whispered.

"Yingying." Lord Ji held his daughter's hand tightly, trembling, as if she would disappear if he let go.

Elsewhere, Mrs. Shen hurriedly told the Princess of Nanyue everything that happened that day. She felt vaguely uneasy in her heart. She did not expect that such a horrific thing happened during the time when she lost consciousness!

When the Princess of Nanyue heard this, her expression suddenly changed. "What did you say? Has Shen Siyan's secret been discovered?"

Although they had taken strict precautions to ensure that the news was not leaked, someone still broke into the room quietly.

The princess turned her head suddenly and stared at Shen Siyan. He was sitting quietly on the cushion, his face peaceful, as if he was sleeping.

The Princess of Nanyue quickly ordered the old man, "Hurry, go and see if he is hurt!" Since an unidentified person has sneaked in, it is very likely that he will be harmful to Shen Siyan.

The old man sneered, "Don't worry, Princess. There are only a handful of people in this world who can cure my poison. Even if a few bugs sneak in, they can't cure the poison."

"I guess those people left when they saw they had no other options." After saying that, the old man slowly walked to Shen Siyan's side, and after a careful inspection, he nodded and said, "Indeed, the Gu in his body is still there."

Hearing this, the Princess of Nanyue felt relieved. Her plan would not allow any interference.

The princess looked up at Madam Shen and asked, "Who is the intruder?"

Mrs. Shen's face turned pale. "I don't know, but that person must be good at disguise." The guards she borrowed from Lord Yin were highly skilled in martial arts and not easily deceived, but they still fell into the trap.

The princess narrowed her eyes, "Mrs. Shen, I remember Shen Feng invited a doctor to see him that day..."

"No, it's definitely not Feng'er!" Mrs. Shen immediately denied it. She firmly believed that her son would not do such a thing. Moreover, this matter was kept very secret and Feng'er had no idea about it.

"Feng'er knows nothing about this. He can't possibly do such a thing."
