A renowned ancient physician transmigrates into the body of an abandoned woman, only to be sold off
Chapter 56 reveals the truth.
"Where is this strange place? How did I get here?"
Song Zhili heard the voice coming from behind her. She turned her head in alarm and saw He Chengjing standing behind her, scrutinizing her.
"You...how did you wake up?"
Song Zhili couldn't understand it at all. Anyone who was drugged by her potent sleeping potion would be unconscious for half a day, so how could he wake up in just a few hours? It was unbelievable.
He Chengjing did not answer Song Zhili, but turned his head to carefully examine the place where he was. He found the buildings in this place to be very peculiar, especially when he came downstairs and saw the surveillance footage on the living room screen, which startled him.
He saw the outside scene on the monitor, and he could see Hu Cuicui and the others making fish balls in the yard. He opened the gate and wanted to go out through the door, but when he opened the door, he found that it was pitch black outside and he could not go out.
Finally, he had no choice but to return to the room he had been in before. As soon as he came up, he saw Song Zhili inside, looking for something.
Song Zhili's thoughts raced through her mind.
What to do? What to do? What to do now? He's awake. Maybe we should just knock him out again and tell him it was all a dream when he wakes up!
"What do you think that is?"
Song Zhili pointed behind He Chengjing, and when he turned his head away, he reached out and placed his hand on He Chengjing's neck, intending to knock him unconscious with a chop.
But before she could succeed, He Chengjing reacted and grabbed Song Zhili's hand.
He stared at her sharply, "What do you want to do?"
Song Zhili felt a chill run down her spine under his gaze; if this man were to become ruthless, she might lose her life.
"It's nothing, hehe... I just wanted to touch your forehead to see if your fever had gone down. Let go of me, your body is still poisoned, you can't use your internal energy!"
Song Zhili chuckled awkwardly to cover her embarrassment, then casually made up an excuse and stared innocently at He Chengjing.
I wonder if he'll believe such a clumsy excuse.
After a while, He Chengjing let go of her hand, then walked to the bedside and sat down, rubbing his still dizzy head.
Do you have anything to eat? I'm a little hungry.
Song Zhili then realized that she hadn't given He Chengjing anything to eat from last night until now. Could it be that he woke up because he was hungry?
Well, he already knows about his space anyway, now I just hope he won't tell anyone.
"Wait here for a while, I'll go downstairs and get you something to eat."
As she spoke, Song Zhili turned and walked downstairs. He Chengjing, seeing her leave, curiously followed her downstairs.
Song Zhili noticed he was following her but didn't pay him any attention. Since he already knew about this space, Song Zhili was somewhat resigned to her fate.
She went to the living room, first went to the water dispenser to get him a glass of warm water, then turned around and handed it to He Chengjing. She didn't care what expression He Chengjing had at that moment, and then went to the kitchen.
The quickest food available right now is instant noodles. She didn't care whether He Chengjing could eat instant noodles or not, and went straight to the cabinet to take out a non-spicy pack of instant noodles and added hot water.
She even put a sausage and a braised egg into her instant noodles.
Soon, the aroma of instant noodles wafted out, and He Chengjing couldn't help but swallow.
A few minutes later, Song Zhili handed the instant noodles to He Chengjing, saying, "Alright, you can eat it."
He Chengjing subconsciously took the instant noodles, but he wasn't in a hurry to eat them. He had just seen Song Zhili pour a packet of powder and some black stuff into the noodles.
Could she be trying to poison me?
Seeing him standing there without eating, Song Zhili asked curiously, "Aren't you hungry? Why aren't you eating? Are you afraid I'll poison you?"
Song Zhili thought about how he had been watching her the whole time she arrived at the packet of spices. Could he have thought it was poison? Even if she were stupid, she wouldn't poison someone in front of him!
Song Zhili walked forward speechlessly, took the fork from his hand, took a bite, and then put the fork into the instant noodles.
"Now you can rest assured, there's no poison in these noodles. If you don't want to eat them, I'll just throw them away."
Seeing that Song Zhili had eaten, He Chengjing was relieved. He then followed Song Zhili to the living room with the instant noodles in his arms.
Song Zhili pointed to the dining table, indicating that he should go there to eat. He Chengjing obediently went over and sat down at the table to eat instant noodles.
While eating, he kept looking around at his surroundings. After he finished his instant noodles, he walked over to Song Zhili and asked again.
"Where exactly is this place? And what is this thing? Why is this your yard?"
He pointed to the curtain in the living room.
Song Zhili sighed inwardly. While He Chengjing was eating instant noodles, she had already been thinking about how to say it. After much deliberation, she decided to tell him everything.
Then she looked at He Chengjing solemnly, patted the sofa next to her, and said, "Come sit here. I can tell you everything, but can you promise me that if I tell you everything, you must keep it a secret and not tell anyone my secret?"
Hearing Song Zhili say that, he walked over to her side, sat down, and gave a soft reply.
"Okay, I promise I won't tell."
After hearing He Chengjing's assurance, Song Zhili told him how she came to be here and about this space.
After Song Zhili finished speaking, He Chengjing was still a little confused. Finally, he summarized.
"So you're saying you're from thousands of years in the future? And this place is where you used to live? You even brought your old home with you, is that what you mean?"
Seeing that his summary was spot on, Song Zhili couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. "Hmm, that's pretty much the gist of it. After I finish explaining, aren't you afraid of me? Aren't you afraid I'm a monster who will eat you?"
As she spoke, Song Zhili placed her hands in a claw shape next to her cheeks, moved closer to He Chengjing, and even opened her mouth wide.
"Pfft."
Seeing Song Zhili like this, He Chengjing couldn't help but laugh. He was amused by Song Zhili's adorable actions. Then, as if remembering something, he asked Song Zhili a question.
"Was the hidden weapon you used to kill that big cat in here? Can you take it out and let me see it?"
He Chengjing still couldn't forget that pistol, after all, its lethality was simply too great.
"Okay, then you wait here, I'll go upstairs and get it for you."
