Meng Qizhou frowned worriedly. “Logically speaking, there should be, but I haven’t found any clear evidence yet. However, you also know that Han’er’s illness is too serious. Eating the Worry-Relieving Grass will only allow him to hold on for a period of time at most. His illness hasn’t been completely cured, and he might have another illness in the future.”
“Are you sure there’s no way to cure him?” Rong Zhan asked with a frown.
“You also know that although I studied under the ghost doctor, I haven’t learned a third of my master’s medical skills. Only a genius like him can learn all of them. I obviously don’t have the talent.” Meng Qizhou lowered his eyes to hide the disappointment in his eyes. “My master has traveled all over the world, and I don’t know where he is. Otherwise, if he were to help, there might have a seventy to eighty percent chance of being able to cure him.”
“I’ve already sent people to find the ghost doctor,” Rong Zhan said.
“Father.” Rong Han sat there and listened for a long time, feeling extremely bored. At this moment, he could not help but interrupt Rong Zhan. “Father, I want to go out and play.”
“Go, but just in the garden. Don’t go far.” Rong Zhan rarely brought Rong Han out, so he could not bear to refuse him.

Moreover, it was inconvenient for Rong Han to know about the things he was going to discuss with Meng Qizhou.
After Rong Han left, Rong Zhan raised his wine glass and drank up the osmanthus wine in one gulp. “When I went out this time, I met a girl. She determined that the poison I was poisoned by was named Yanqiluo.”
“What?!” What Rong Zhan said really surprised Meng Qizhou. He put down the wine glass that was placed to his lips and asked, “What exactly happened?”
Rong Zhan did not hide anything and quickly recounted the whole story.
After Meng Qizhou heard what Rong Zhan said, his face was still filled with disbelief. “If what this Lady Gu said is true, then her medical skills are superior to mine. However, I’ve never heard of such a powerful woman in the pugilistic world. Where did she learn from?”
He had previously helped Rong Zhan see the lethal poison on his body, but with his medical skills, there was no way to determine what kind of poison Rong Zhan was suffering from, let alone find a way to detoxify it.
“I don’t know,” Rong Zhan replied indifferently.
“You’ve already put your life in her hands, and you don’t intend to find out?” Meng Qizhou asked helplessly.
“She was the first person who could see that I was poisoned. She said that she was confident in curing me, so I let her give it a try,” Rong Zhan said.
Meng Qizhou raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, “This is the first time I’ve seen you trust an outsider so much. I wonder who this Lady Gu is, to be able to make you look at her in a new light.”
“It’s not that I trust her, it’s just fun.” As Rong Zhan spoke, he subconsciously moved his palm and pinched the handkerchief that belonged to Gu Qingxue that was hidden in the sleeve.

“Is it really as you said?” Meng Qizhou revealed a malicious smile.
Rong Zhan raised his eyes and swept a cold glance at Meng Qizhou.
Meng Qizhou immediately quivered and changed the topic, “If this Lady Gu’s medical skills are brilliant, you can invite her to see Han’er’s illness.”
“That’s exactly what I intend to do.” Rong Zhan agreed, picked up the bamboo chopsticks, and slowly continued to eat.
On the other side, Rong Han had just arrived at the garden when he heard a burst of laughter.
Rong Han could not help but stop in his tracks, and doubt rose in his eyes.
There was actually someone else?

The garden of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant was rarely visited by people, and Rong Han had never met any other children here. He had always regarded it as his secret base, because of its natural quietness and beautiful scenery.
