After transmigrating into the book, I helped my mother reconcile with her divorced husband.

"You're not from the Qinghe Gang!" Lu Zhiyuan pressed the blade attached to her bracelet against the man's neck. "This isn't the way back to the city. Who are you?"

I hadn't noticed before, but now I see that the carriage has veered off the main road and headed down a secluded side road.

Fortunately, we haven't gone far, and we should be able to return in time.

"It's too late, he's already succumbed to the poison." The waiter, unfazed by the blade at his neck, said, "I'm from the Qinghe Gang. Madam has a photographic memory; she should remember my face."

"You betrayed Han Ting."

"Betrayal?" The waiter smirked. "It's just a case of a wise bird choosing a better tree to perch on!"

“I don’t know you, but I know Han Ting. The fact that he’s willing to take you along means he considers you a confidant. How can you do this to him?” The blade embedded itself a little deeper, and blood dripped onto the waiter’s collar.

The man held the reins, maintaining the driving posture.

"Confidant? Is being considered a confidant something to be grateful for? Do you know what the Qinghe Gang was like before? And what it is like now?" The waiter squinted his eyes: "The Qinghe Gang used to live a life of luxury, but now it's all bland and tasteless."

"The Qinghe Gang used to be a chaotic mess, but now it's the most respected gang. You should be proud to have a leader like Han Ting."

"Proud?" The waiter sneered. "What do you know? You were born the legitimate daughter of a marquis. Even if you're not well-liked, you still live a life of luxury and never have to worry about food or clothing. How could you know the hardships of us poor people?"

Lu Zhiyuan wanted to say she knew, but swallowed the words. Now was not the time to argue with him. He knew Lu Yun was poisoned, knew Lu Yun had suffered internal injuries, and perhaps even knew where the antidote was? He was right, Lu Yun's condition was serious and couldn't be delayed. Even with her medical skills honed over two lifetimes, she couldn't possibly concoct an antidote in a short time.

A poison that even the Hundred Poison Pill couldn't suppress must be one she had never seen before and was completely unfamiliar with.

She wanted Lu Yun to live!

"Does your poverty have anything to do with Han Ting? Is your poverty caused by Han Ting? On the contrary, it is precisely because of Han Ting that you are able to live such a carefree life. Instead of being grateful to him, you betray him. Do you have no heart?"

"I have no heart!" the henchman sneered. "If I had a heart, I wouldn't be alive today! Do you know how old I was when I joined the Qinghe Gang? Do you know how I got in? Nine! I betrayed my parents, my brother and sister-in-law, just to earn a living for the Qinghe Gang. Even without Han Ting, I would still be where I am today, but I wouldn't be a lackey being bossed around like this. Respected? What's respect worth? It's just a way to gain fame. Han Ting is just using the money we brothers risked our lives to earn to build his reputation. I'm just taking back what's rightfully mine, how can that be considered betrayal?"

“Everyone has their own path, I won’t force you.” The blade pressed against the waiter’s artery: “Where were the Xie family’s servants and Liu Ying taken? Where’s the antidote? Where is the antidote?”

"Do you dare to go?" the man asked defiantly. "Kill me, drive back to the city, and you live while he dies. Don't kill me, let me take you where you're supposed to go, and maybe you'll both live, or maybe you'll both die."

Lu Zhiyuan let go, and Lu Yun said urgently, "Kill him, don't worry about me."

The man wiped his wound, cracked the whip hard, and said with a forced smile, "You've met a good master. She cares more about your life than her own."

Lu Yun attempted to kill himself with a sword, but Lu Zhiyuan stopped him, saying, "Don't be foolish!"

Lu Yun became anxious: "My life is not a bargaining chip they can use to threaten Miss."

"You're overthinking it. They don't want my life, or yours." The medicine kit is gone, and the needle case is nowhere to be found; I'll have to find another way. I took off my earring, straightened the earring post, and used it as a temporary silver needle. I removed my bracelet and wiped the blood off the blade. "I have a particularly risky method; it might not work, but I'll give it a try."

"Lu Yun's life belongs to you, Miss. You can do whatever you want with her." Lu Yun struggled to sit up: "What does Miss want to do?"

"I'm going to cut two wounds. Bear it if you can, but scream if you can't. It's okay if you faint, no one will laugh at you." Taking advantage of Lu Yun's inattention, she pierced the two earrings.

Lu Yun frowned and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Hearing the noise, the waiter lifted the curtain and peeked inside, then said coldly, "Don't waste your energy. You can't save his life."

Lu Zhiyuan ignored him and used a razor blade to make two cuts on Lu Yun's left and right hands to activate the system.

"Dear Master, you haven't summoned your system in a long time!"

"I need a blood transfusion!" Lu Zhiyuan silently recited in her heart, "I want to have Lu Yun's poisoned blood transferred to my body."

"My dear master, what nonsense are you talking about? How could you transfer Lu Yun's poisoned blood onto yourself?"

"Just tell me if you can do it or not. If you can't, I'll use my own method."

"Master, please allow your system to remind you that Lu Yun is a fictional character, and his life or death is irrelevant."

“He is my family, my brother. I want to save him, I want him to live a good life.”

"Master, you can reconsider."

"I asked you if I could change it?"

Sensing Lu Zhiyuan's anger, the system became much more obedient.

“Sure!” the system replied obediently. “Your system has been upgraded and can provide you with a full set of medical equipment, but it doesn’t have blood bags or plasma. As you know, I am a system, and it’s illegal to provide anything related to life.”

“Use mine to exchange for his. The original owner and he were both fictional characters, so there was no such thing as blood type incompatibility.”

"Yes, as a minor character in the original book, the original author did not mention Lu Yun's or the original owner's blood type. Even if they had, the system could help the master cheat." The system said happily, "The master only needs to cut open his wrist and place it on Lu Yun's wrist, and the system can help the master complete the entire blood exchange process. Don't worry, the real blood exchange is performed by professional equipment, and the master and Lu Yun are just pretending."

Before the system could finish speaking, Lu Zhiyuan cut her wrist and applied the cut to the wound. Touching the wound caused a slight pain, and the sensation of blood mingling was a little strange.

Lu Yun didn't know what Lu Zhiyuan was going to do, but his intuition told him that the young lady was using a very dangerous method to save him.

"Miss?"

"Shut up!"

In her mind, the system was still rambling on, basically saying that this equipment had a filtration system that could remove impurities from the blood, making it cleaner and more vibrant. The system wasn't sure if this filtration system would be effective against the toxins in Lu Yun's blood; if it wasn't, Lu Zhiyuan would have to fend for herself.

The system also detected that Lu Yun's internal injuries included a dislocated rib and minor spleen damage. The system could perform a minor surgery on him discreetly during the blood transfusion process. It was surgery, not a complete recovery; he would still need to rest afterward.

The implication is that you cannot take action; doing so would cause secondary damage, at which point even the system would be unable to do anything about it.
