Chapter 268: The Passage to the Mainland
strong dizziness came over her head, and her whole body felt weak and limp, unable to muster any strength."What's going on" Cheng Ruoruo's heart was in turmoil, she shouted at He Yue and Cheng Kexin,...The bodyguard beside her noticed Xu Zui'ning suddenly stop, a strange expression flashing across her face. "Miss Xu, what is it"
Xu Zui Ning's face showed a hint of doubt, her gaze swept across the entire private room, her brows furrowed slightly, but in the end she still smiled faintly at the bodyguard and shook her head, "It's nothing!"
After saying that, Xu Zui Ning walked into the private room with her leg raised.
The moment Xu Zui'ning entered the private room, Cheng An, who was originally sitting there waiting, stood up and greeted her with a smile, his attitude very warm.
"Here comes the little genius of traditional Chinese medicine, come sit, come sit! Ms. Xu, I've already ordered the dishes. They are all the signature dishes of this restaurant. I just don't know if they suit your taste."
While ushering Xu Zui Ning to sit down, Cheng An spoke and even personally pulled out a chair for her.
After Xu Zhuoning sat down, Cheng An immediately gave the bodyguard in the room a look, signaling them to step aside first, and the bodyguards all left the box.
Then, in that entire super luxurious and spacious private room, there were only Xu Zuiying and the other person left.
Next to the dining table was a floor-to-ceiling window, as large as a wall. Looking out, one could see half the city ablaze with lights, bustling traffic, and a mesmerizing night scene.
Cheng An sat opposite Xu Zui Ning. At this time, a waiter knocked on the door and came in, placing dish after dish on the table before quickly exiting the private room. Cheng An smiled with a kind face and personally used chopsticks to pick up dishes for Xu Zui Ning.
"Ms. Xu, now there are only the two of us here. Could you tell me how you saw through Qin Yuchun's illness at first glance in the hospital today"
For Cheng An to ask her this question, Xu Zhuoning wasn't at all surprised.
This time, An intentionally withdrew all the bodyguards, probably wanting to ask her about this question that he was incredibly curious about.
This is also an opportunity for her, Xu Zui Ning.
Xu Zui'ning raised her teacup, took a delicate sip, then smiled at Cheng An and said, "If I said I saw it with my own eyes, would you believe me"
Xu Zui'ning indeed made a diagnosis based solely on her gaze. She directly and bluntly told Cheng An the truth.
Of course, she used her spiritual eyes to diagnose illnesses, not ordinary human eyes.
Xu Zui'ning's words made Cheng An's smile freeze on his face for a moment, but he quickly recovered and smiled again, "Ms. Xu, there are no outsiders here, can you not tell me the truth"
"What I just said is true."
See Xu Zui Ning was still wearing an expression that she wouldn't tell the truth at all, Cheng An's eyes gradually became cold.
He slammed the teacup back on the table, his face cold as he spoke, "Miss Xu, you don't need to hide from me anymore. I already know, you are actually a member of the Ghost Doctor Valley, aren't you"
Xu Zui Ning was calculating when to make her move, but she didn't expect Cheng An to suddenly say that.
She froze, her hand with the teacup trembling. She lifted her head and stared at Cheng An in disbelief, her face darkening. "What did you just say"
Seeing Xu Zui Ning's reaction, Cheng An let out a cold snort, a chilling smile playing on his lips.
He sank into the chair, speaking slowly, “Miss Xu, I not only know that you are a disciple of Ghost Doctor Gu, but I also know…” He leaned closer to Xu Zui Ning, his voice dropping to a whisper, “And I also know that you are not from this world.”
Xu Zui'ning's face turned pale instantly.
"How did you know..." She had just uttered a few words when she felt her body go weak and a wave of dizziness hit her. Luckily, she grabbed onto the table and didn't fall. She couldn't help but raise her head and rub her temples.
She suddenly raised her head and glared at Cheng An, "You actually drugged me!"
Cheng An, standing on the side, watched Xu Zui Ning swaying unsteadily. He could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.
"This young master Cheng Jibei is truly remarkable. He said this incense was colorless and odorless, that even your Ghost Doctor Valley people wouldn't be able to detect it, and he was right."
Xu Zui's hand propped up on the table, preventing herself from falling. However, her body still swayed, and her face was ashen. "Cheng An, what do you want to do"
Cheng An let out a cold laugh.
“What do I want to do It’s actually very simple. I've been searching for a passage connecting the two continents for many years, and now that I've finally met someone from another continent, how could I let them go so easily You better tell me honestly, how did you get to our world”
Cheng An's words shocked Xu Zui Ning.
"What kind of passage connects two continents, what are you talking about Speak clearly, what exactly is..."
Xu Zui Ning wanted to ask for clarification, but before she could finish her words, she couldn't hold on any longer and slumped onto the table.
Seeing Xu Zui'ning's body soften on the table, Cheng An's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"I see you don't drink to a toast, so let's have some penalty drinks!" He turned towards the entrance of the private room, "Come in here for me."
Two bodyguards pushed open the private rooms and walked quickly to Cheng An, lowering their heads. "Mr. Cheng, what are your orders"
Cheng An picked up a wet towel from the table and gracefully wiped his fingers, "You go tell Madam that I might have found a passage connecting the two continents, ask her to come find me immediately."
"Yes." A bodyguard strode out of the private room, while the other nodded and went to Xu Zui Ning, wanting to carry her who was already unconscious.
However, just as he leaned down, about to touch Xu Zui Ning, who should have been unconscious, Xu Zui Ning suddenly opened her eyes.
Cheng An's bodyguards were all carefully selected. Even so, the bodyguard was taken aback and couldn't react in time before seeing a hideous face rapidly enlarge several times right in front of him.
Xu Zui Ning thrust the golden needle, which she had been holding between her fingers for a long time, into his shoulder with incredible speed.
The well-trained bodyguard only felt a pain in his shoulder, and the next second, he went black and lost consciousness. He didn't even have time to react.
Cheng An, who had been smug and proud just a moment ago, was taken aback by this sudden turn of events. He stood there dumbfounded.
"You... how..." He looked at Xu Zui'ning who was slowly getting up with a terrified face, his eyes full of shock, "This is impossible..."
"Aren't you wondering why my 蝕骨** didn't make you faint"
Seeing Cheng An stammer in fright, Xu Zui Ning smiled softly and asked.
She glared at Cheng An, letting out a cold snort and spitting out a leaf from her mouth. Her eyes were full of sarcasm.
The moment I stepped into this private room, I sensed the bone-chilling and soul-seducing miasma within. I had already taken precautions accordingly.
When Cheng An heard Xu Zui Ning's words, the blood on her face drained away.
"This is impossible! Cheng Jiben told me this incense is colorless and odorless, even your people from the Ghost Physician Valley wouldn't be able to detect it! How did you figure it out"for the reason she had just given.Besides, aren't we friends... Helping you is the right thing to do.Tang Lijia turned her head away, a little uneasy and shy, no longer looking at Ke Yu. Although Ke Y...
