"Not at all!" the system immediately corrected, a shiver running through it. Its survival instincts had kicked in with a vengeance.
Upon hearing this, Ming Li's lips curved into a smile. She calmly withdrew her gaze and looked at Liu Xinran, who was trembling, her smile widening. Her voice, however, was chillingly cold as she asked, "Do you know better than anyone whether I am human or ghost?"
"What do you mean by that!" Liu Xinran was internally panicking, a nagging feeling that this Qin Qingli knew something.
Ming Li toyed with the silver sword in her hand, her beautiful eyes devoid of any warmth. "Do you think this body's bone marrow was prepared specifically for your male lead brother?"
The system in the space exclaimed, "...Wait! Host! Did you just slip up?" What did she mean by 'male lead brother'?
Liu Xinran: "......" Male lead? What male lead? What did Qin Qingli mean by that?
Before Liu Xinran could ponder further, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck. Her vision blurred, and she lost consciousness.
In the space, the system, witnessing this, felt its heart lurch and instinctively asked, "Host, what are you going to do?"
Ming Li glanced indifferently at Liu Xinran, who had fainted on the ground. "Complete the mission, of course."
The system: "......" Why did it have a creepy feeling?
Just as the system was starting to sweat for Liu Xinran, it saw Ming Li's next audacious move outside the space. She grabbed the unconscious Liu Xinran from the ground as if she were a small chicken and leaped off the tall building the next second.
The system: "......" It was so shocked it almost crashed.
Could it still apply to change hosts? If there were a few more of these scares, it feared it wouldn't be able to handle it.
Liu Xinran opened her eyes, and the blinding light made her instinctively squint. By the time her consciousness fully returned, her previously confused eyes were instantly filled with terror.
The entire room was filled with the smell of disinfectant, constantly assaulting Liu Xinran's nerves, pushing her fear to its absolute limit.
Who was she? Where was she? What had she experienced?
Swallowing hard, Liu Xinran's terrified gaze swept around the surroundings. She immediately spotted several figures in white coats nearby.
"Who are you people? Why am I here? What are you going to do to me?"
After speaking, seeing that the people in front of her ignored her, Liu Xinran was internally panicking. She tried to get up but found herself completely paralyzed and unable to move. "Don't come any closer, this is illegal!"
Upon hearing this, one of the men in the white coat suddenly let out a cold, mocking laugh. "Law? Someone like you actually has the nerve to mention the word 'law'?"
Liu Xinran swallowed hard and was about to say something when her vision blurred again, and she fainted once more...
When Liu Xinran woke up again, she was met with a smiling face – it was Wu Yanhong's. Before she could think, the woman grabbed her hand gratefully. "Xinran, it was worth all the effort our Liu family put into raising you!"
Liu Xinran: "???" What did she mean by that?
Just then, Liu Zhengguo also arrived.
"Ranran, thank you for being willing to donate bone marrow to our Xiao Ting."
Liu Xinran: "???" Bone marrow? What bone marrow?
Liu Xinran finally realized that she was lying on a white hospital bed, with an IV drip in her hand...
"No! How could you do this to me!"
Thinking that her bone marrow had been extracted, Liu Xinran's voice became somewhat hysterical.
Why had these people made such a decision without her consent and taken her bone marrow?!
Wu Yanhong was startled by Liu Xinran's sudden shout. She frowned and said, "Didn't you volunteer? Why are you yelling now? You have no upbringing at all. A country chicken, no matter how well-trained, will always remain a country chicken and can never become a phoenix."
