The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Sickly Prince Strategy Manual
Chapter 116 Retribution
Looking at Huo Beixuan who was so crazy, Shuang'er couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
At this moment, she secretly made a decision.
Huo Beixuan suddenly turned around and called out to Shuang'er. Shuang'er raised her head guiltily and responded, "Brother Huo, what's wrong?"
"Go and ask for leave for me!" Huo Beixuan stared at her fiercely.
Shuang'er pointed at herself in disbelief and said in astonishment, "Me! I'll go... ask for leave for you?"
"Well! There is no one else around me who can help me now. Only you can go for me. Just say that you are my distant relative and you come to seek refuge with me!" Huo Beixuan's tone left no room for doubt.
Shuang'er felt that it was inappropriate for a mistress like her to ask for leave from where Huo Beixuan was on duty.
However, Huo Beixuan had no way to communicate properly at the moment, so she had no choice but to nod and said, "Okay, I'll go."
After Shuang'er left, Huo Beixuan began to feel pain again, and this wave of pain was more intense and unbearable than before.
He really couldn't bear this kind of pain, so he staggered out of the dilapidated house and ran towards the Cuiyu Pavilion.
Huo Beixuan finally arrived at Cuiyu Pavilion. The steward saw him staggering approaching from afar and immediately turned around and walked towards the accounting office.
Huo Beixuan walked straight to the back corridor without any obstruction along the way.
Ning Xue was standing in the corridor, looking at him calmly, with Hong Dou standing next to her.
"Ning Xue, is it you, is it you!" Huo Beixuan's eyes widened and he roared angrily.
Ning Xue sneered and said sarcastically, "Yes! It's me. How does it feel to be given poison by the person you love?"
Huo Beixuan glared at her and cursed, "You vicious woman!"
"How can you be so vicious!" Ning Xue fought back without showing any weakness.
"What exactly did you give me to drink?" Huo Beixuan was only thinking about asking Ning Xue what kind of poison he had taken. Only in this way would there be a possibility of treatment.
Ning Xue raised the corners of her mouth and smiled, but that smile seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze and did not reach her eyes at all. "Have you ever heard of the Five Stones Powder?" Her voice came slowly, revealing a bone-chilling chill.
"The drug seller said that you only need to take a small amount over time and you will become addicted. By then, you won't be able to get rid of it even if you want to."
Ning Xue's eyes suddenly became extremely cold, and her tone was extremely sharp. "But I couldn't wait any longer. Instead of putting less, I put more. Admittedly, the dosage is not enough to kill you, but this way, you won't suffer too much pain. I also added some drying and poisonous medicine. The effect of mixing the two together is unexpectedly good!"
Every word she spoke was like a sharp blade, stabbing straight at Huo Beixuan.
"Do you feel very uncomfortable?"
Ning Xue's laughter sounded particularly harsh in the silent atmosphere. She looked at the man in pain in front of her, her heart filled with anger and regret.
What a scumbag. Why did I believe that ridiculous precognitive dream in the first place? I had to marry him and was longing for the glory of being the prime minister's wife or the first-rank lady. Now that I think about it, it was all false!
"Antidote, where is the antidote!" A new wave of pain came again like a surging tide. Huo Beixuan held his head with both hands, squatted down, his face distorted in extreme pain, and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Antidote? How could I have an antidote?" Ning Xue looked at him coldly, her tone full of sarcasm, "I wish you would die in pain, but can I give you a poison that can be cured?" Her voice was frighteningly calm.
"If I were you, I would take this opportunity to go back to that shabby house and lie down. After I get over this pain, maybe I won't have to make a fool of myself in front of others. Otherwise, when the next round of pain comes, I'll roll over in the street. That would be really embarrassing!"
Ning Xue's words were like ice chips, hitting Huo Beixuan mercilessly.
"You, you..." Huo Beixuan was in so much pain that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, but in his heart he had to agree with what Ning Xue said.
Since Ning Xue had already made it clear that she just wanted to see him in agony and had no intention of taking his life, Huo Beixuan endured the severe pain in his body and stumbled away in a hurry when the pain eased a little.
When passing by the clinic, Huo Beixuan paused involuntarily, and the idea of going in for treatment came to his mind.
But when he reached out to touch his empty pocket, the only glimmer of hope was instantly shattered, and he could only helplessly give up the idea.
Just bear with it for now! Shuang'er should have some money. I'll ask Shuang'er to take me to the clinic. There will always be a way.
Huo Beixuan was silently calculating in his mind, dragging his heavy steps towards the former dilapidated house.
When I returned to the shabby house, it was cold and deserted, and Shuang'er had not returned yet.
Huo Beixuan lay weakly on the bed like a deflated ball. His physical and mental exhaustion almost made him lose the strength to resist.
However, fate did not seem to let him go, and a new round of pain came. This time the pain was like a thousand arrows piercing his heart. Huo Beixuan could no longer bear it. His eyes went dark and he fainted from the pain.
After an unknown amount of time, Huo Beixuan slowly woke up from his coma. It was getting dark outside the window, and dim light shone into the house through the shabby window frames.
Shuang'er still hadn't come back, but Huo Beixuan's stomach was growling with hunger, and the sound was particularly clear in the quiet room.
He struggled to get up and walked to the outside of the yard with unsteady steps, wanting to go to the kitchen to see if there was any food to fill his stomach. Just then, someone pushed the door open.
They were two strange burly men, their eyes were cold and fierce.
One of them came forward without saying a word, picked up Huo Beixuan, and threw him out of the door like trash, "We've bought this house, you find another place!"
Huo Beixuan fell to the ground, his face full of disbelief. He struggled to get up and shouted at the two big men, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
The big man sneered, took out a house deed and handed it to Huo Beixuan.
Huo Beixuan widened his eyes and looked at the title deed carefully. When he saw the contents clearly, his face turned pale instantly and his body staggered back two steps involuntarily, as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and his heart sank into an endless abyss.
When the big man saw that he had finished reading, he closed the door mercilessly and ignored Huo Beixuan.
Huo Beixuan just stood outside the door in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time. He simply couldn't believe what he saw with his ears and eyes.
Shuang'er, the beggar he picked up from the street when he was eleven years old, the two depended on each other for many years.
Huo Beixuan's life in Qinzhou was extremely difficult. He would rather live frugally, go hungry and cold, than let her suffer the slightest injustice.
Even after he was brought back to the capital, he took her there carefully and secretly, and used all the money left by his mother to buy this small house, just to give Shuang'er a place to live.
He was even happily preparing to bring Shuang'er back to the Chu family in a few days. Anyway, Ning Xue knew of her existence. In his heart, no matter how difficult the days were, he never had the thought of abandoning Shuang'er.
But he never expected that when he needed help and support the most, she would abandon him first!
Huo Beixuan sat down on the ground, covering his face with his hands, tears falling from between his fingers. The pain in his body came again, wave after wave, as if to swallow him up.
Coupled with the heavy blow he suffered in his heart, Huo Beixuan was now disheartened, and a thought involuntarily emerged in his mind: Could this be his retribution!
