He remembered his grandfather had put it away, and he had looked for it but couldn't find it. Now it seemed that Hui Hui and this woman had found it.
Was this woman here to steal the medicine?
So she knew Hui Hui's identity all along and used him, yet Hui Hui was devoted to her and trusted her implicitly. If their son knew the truth, how heartbroken would he be?
...
The thing Ye Wan feared most had happened. She was worried about the medicine being lost, so she checked it every few minutes. The last time she checked, the medicine was still there, but this time, it was gone!
Ye Wan's head buzzed and exploded. Her face instantly turned ashen, and her whole body trembled.
Hui Hui noticed her unusual behavior and asked, "Ye Wan, what's wrong?"
"The medicine is gone!" Ye Wan said, turning and running back, searching as she went, afraid of missing it if it fell somewhere.
Hui Hui also became anxious. He knew Ye Wan came here for this medicine, so it was very important to her!
He also started helping Ye Wan search. They both took the side paths, with greenery along the roadside. As they walked, they bent over to look. Ye Wan was about to cry.
She could lose her own life, but she couldn't lose this medicine. It was Gu Yunting's hope for survival!
They searched the entire way without finding it. Tears streamed down Ye Wan's face. She squatted on the ground and cried in despair. She truly hated herself for being so careless and losing the medicine.
Hui Hui became anxious seeing her cry. "Don't cry, we'll definitely find it. I'll go ask my father for help."
"It won't work. No one can know I took that medicine," Ye Wan sobbed, shaking her head, her tears flying.
Hui Hui also grew anxious, especially seeing her cry. He felt miserable. "Then don't worry, I'll ask around and see if anyone has seen that round medicine box nearby."
Ye Wan was truly at a loss now. If the medicine was lost, how could she face Gu Yunting?
Her phone vibrated. She looked and saw a message from Jin Lan. He asked, "You really found the medicine? The antidote is in the C-country imperial palace? Where are you now? I'll send people to get it immediately."
Seeing Jin Lan's reply, Ye Wan cried even harder. The antidote was found, but she had lost it again.
Before she could reply, Jin Lan's message came again, "If I had known the antidote was in the C-country imperial palace, I would have sent people to get it long ago. We wouldn't have wasted so much time."
Ye Wan was stunned by this. Could he obtain the antidote easily?
If so, she would cry even more. She should have told him the whereabouts of the antidote earlier. She had worked hard for so long, only to finally find the antidote and lose it again.
Ye Wan was despairing.
Just as Hui Hui and Ye Taifa were frantically searching for the antidote like headless flies, a bodyguard walked over and said, "Young Master, Miss Ye, the Young Master wants to see you. He said what you want is with him."
Ye Wan suddenly looked at the bodyguard who spoke, and said excitedly, "Take me to see your master!"
Ye Wan and Hui Hui were taken to a side hall, but Hui Hui was left behind. Finally, Ye Wan was led into a study.
"You took the antidote, didn't you? Give it back to me quickly," Ye Wan said agitatedly, rushing forward and placing her hands on the desk, glaring at Ying Wuji and demanding it.
"Miss Ye, you stole a treasure of our country, and you seem quite self-righteous now," Ying Wuji said, frowning at her, clearly displeased with her attitude.
