She had already taken the antidote given by the Old Turtle. In a short while, she would start to feel better but she presently had absolutely no strength, let alone walk, even opening her eyes made her feel utterly exhausted.
"Cai Wei, endure it a little longer. We’ll be at the medical center soon," said Huo Yuan with a dark and hoarse voice, as he walked quickly towards the main door while comforting Cai Wei.
God knew how uncomfortable he was feeling at that moment. His body was as if being devoured by thousands of insects, the itch was unbearable. He felt as though he could explode any moment, it was agonizing. What exacerbated his condition the most was the girl he liked in his arms. It was simply adding insult to injury.
Upon reaching the door, his coachman, upon seeing his master carrying a girl and rushing out, hastily put up the curtain, inviting the master to sit inside.
"Hurry, to Baohe Medical Clinic!"
He murmured, laying the girl down on the soft seat of the carriage and wrapped her up in a brocade quilt, then sat silently in the corner clenching his fists.
Cai Wei, having taken the antidote given by the Old Turtle, was gradually regaining her consciousness and strength. Upon opening her eyes, she spotted Young Master Huo in the corner of the carriage with an extremely strange look on his face!
His handsome face was straining with veins popping out, turned purple-red, while his teeth were grinding from the pain. His intense red eyes were glaring at his knees where his clasped fists lay on. His fists were subtly trembling, as if holding back something with all his might.
"Young Master Huo? What’s wrong with you?"
She threw off the quilt, sat up, and couldn’t help worrying upon seeing his condition.
He growled, like a wounded wild beast, and begun breathing heavily.
"I.... got drugged... Stay...away from me..."
Abruptly, he took out a knife and, without hesitation, stabbed his arm.
Cai Wei screamed, covering her mouth, witnessing the knife piercing his arm and the sky-blue sleeve suddenly blossoming with a bright blood flower.
The man handed her the bloody knife.
"What for?" She was clueless, thus didn’t dare to reach for the bloody knife hastily.
Huo Yuan cracked a forced smile against his grimacing face, "In case I lose control over myself, feel free to use it..."
Cai Wei was taken aback, she looked at him deeply, took the knife, and quietly sat back down. She then tried to summon the Old Turtle mentally.
"Great Immortal Turtle, take a look at what he has been drugged with? Do you have an antidote? Please, help to send some out quickly!"
The Old Turtle shook its head and sighed, "This is a very potent drug, the best antidote would be to find a few women for him. But master, you must never sacrifice yourself to save him!"
Cai Wei was almost choked, "Great Immortal Turtle, look at your full measure of immortal Qi, appearing completely indifferent to mortal affairs, I didn’t expect you to be this sly!"
Old Turtle replied, "Master, I’m just telling the truth. The drug in this gentleman’s body is too powerful. If only one woman deals with him, I fear she might be hurt. We need to find a few more, let’s find three or four. Well, no, this gentleman is tall and robust, and the poison is deep, three or four may not be enough. We’re better off finding five or six!"
"Stop, hold onto your abundant imagination!"
Cai Wei interrupted him, "Tell me, aside from letting him harass women, there is really no antidote?"
