Chapter 373: Chapter 364: Control of Medicine

Even Jing Huai himself did not realize that a passerby ’helping out of kindness’ had stealthily stolen a vial of his blood, to say nothing of his assistant and Li Yuwen.

The frantic trio returned to the hospital, only to be met by the doctor’s somewhat grave expression as soon as they entered the ward.

A chill ran through the hearts of the three simultaneously.

"Doc, Doctor," Jing Huai couldn’t control the tremor in his voice, clinging to a sliver of hope, "Are you here to tell me they mixed up this morning’s test reports?"

"I’m here to suggest you transfer to another hospital," the doctor shook his head and said solemnly, "We’ve convened and agreed that the substance accidentally contaminating your wound requires more precise instruments for testing. You should move to a more specialized hematology hospital. Additionally, because of your identity, many fans and paparazzi have come these past two days using medical appointments as an excuse to see you. Not even the hospital’s security can keep them out, and it’s seriously disrupting our doctors and nurses’ regular work. Please complete the discharge procedures as soon as possible!"

Once the doctor left, Jing Huai slumped directly onto the hospital bed.

"What did he mean just now? Am I going to be killed by Xu Qingmei?"

Though it was hard to believe that a slight scratch on their artist by Xu Qingmei could lead to this situation, Li Yuwen’s heart pounded as she listened to the doctor and saw Jing Huai’s ghostly, unrecognizable state after a mere day.

She had painstakingly brought Jing Huai to this point, eagerly waiting for him to step up so she could get promoted as well, outshine Tong Yue and Jiang Lingxi in front of the boss.

But if Jing Huai kept tormenting himself like this, even if she didn’t want to give up her hard-earned artist, the company wouldn’t be so lenient.

By then, she might even be kicked out of Shao Entertainment along with Jing Huai.

She absolutely could not accept that outcome!

"Didn’t you add Xu Qingmei’s assistant? Call them for me!"

Right now, she couldn’t be bothered about offending Xu Qingmei; she just wanted to find someone to ask clearly what really happened with the injury.

After calling three times in succession, it was finally answered.

"It’s not that I don’t want to contact Sister Xu, but without Sister Xu’s permission, even I can’t see her."

Li Yuwen took a deep breath, "Then give me Teacher Xu’s current residence, and I’ll pay a personal visit, alright?"

"Sorry, that’s strictly confidential. If I reveal it, it wouldn’t just be a matter of being fired. Hold on, Sister Xu is contacting me, I need to hang up."

An hour later.

Jing Huai, following Xu Qingmei’s instructions, took a taxi over alone.

After getting out of the car, he looked at the villa gate, already open and waiting for him to enter, and his heartbeat suddenly sped up uncontrollably.

But it wasn’t because of excitement; it was a wave of inexplicable tension.

Previously, he escaped from the hospital at great risk just to question Xu Qingmei about what she smeared on her nails. But now that Xu Qingmei had proactively contacted him to come alone, he couldn’t help but think more.

Earlier, he inadvertently got caught, and Xu Qingmei’s face turned grim as she hurried away – did this mean she knew what would happen once her nails scratched him?

If she rushed off back then, why call him back now?

Given Xu Qingmei’s character, it was hard for him to believe she’d suddenly have a change of heart!

Why did she want him to come over?

Moreover, to carry something that hospitals can’t even test, is this woman really just an entertainment star?

Would he be able to leave intact after entering this gate?

The more he couldn’t help but speculate, the more the villa in front of him seemed like a gigantic maw waiting to devour him, from which there would be no return!

Thoughts he hadn’t had time for when rushing over before now quietly coalesced into greater fear.

Seeing the car that brought him start to leave, he suddenly turned and ran.

Compared to the wound on his arm, the one left by Xu Qingmei now seemed far more terrifying in his eyes!

Xu Qingmei was sitting in the villa’s living room, staring at the surveillance footage on the TV while waiting for him to come in.

She was already somewhat unwilling to go through with this decision, and seeing Jing Huai suddenly freeze in place on the monitor and then turn to leave, her face immediately darkened!

Now that you’re here, you still want to leave?

Unable to keep her composure any longer, Xu Qingmei hurriedly got up to chase after him, catching up just as Jing Huai staggered to the car, about to open the door, and placed her hand over his on the handle.

"Be good, come back with me."

The voice that slipped into his ear was unbearably gentle, but all Jing Huai felt was his hair standing on end.

His instinct was to shake off the hand on his own.

Xu Qingmei noticed his movement, her eyes darkened suddenly, and she leaned in close to Jing Huai’s cheek, gently exhaling, "Be obedient!"

Jing Huai felt a seductive fragrance infiltrate his nostrils, and his struggling movements suddenly paused. The clarity he’d just regained faded, and unconsciously, he gave up struggling.

"Are you leaving or not?"

The driver in the front seat lowered the window to ask.

Xu Qingmei quickly turned her face away. She’d rushed out without any disguise and couldn’t afford to be seen.

"Not leaving, driver."

A trace of struggle flickered in Jing Huai’s eyes, but his hand, under Xu Qingmei’s control, weakly released the handle.

The driver muttered, "A couple in a fight, first time I’ve seen the guy trying to run away from home, leave and then return, then want to go again—what a fuss!"

Xu Qingmei: "..."

She looked at Jing Huai, whose expression had become somewhat numb, feeling secretly alarmed at the effect just a little scent stimulation had—if fully activated...

It’s a pity he wasn’t the originally intended target.

"Let’s go, come back with me."

To prevent any unexpected changes, Xu Qingmei didn’t release her hold, leading Jing Huai, whose expression and movements were both dulled now, back through the villa gate.

As the door closed, a young man crouching in a blind spot on the nearby wall finally moved a little, holding in his hand a phone that had just finished recording, jumping down to the ground.

Back in the car, he replayed the scene he just captured, slowing down the footage specifically at the point where Xu Qingmei placed her hand on Jing Huai’s, all the way until the duo entered the house.

There was a glimmer of deep thought in his eyes.

He then sent out the video.

The video arrived on Shen Yunqing’s phone, who watched it directly on the computer, allowing for a clearer viewing experience.

The bearded young man leaned in quietly, and upon seeing how a mere breath from Xu Qingmei transformed Jing Huai’s fierce resistance into compliance, he inhaled sharply, "My God, what kind of charm is this old Xu woman blowing? That’s insane!"

Shen Yunqing’s eyes narrowed slightly.

In his past life, he’d seen some bizarrely effective poisons, a few that made whoever took them obedient, but none as swift as Xu Qingmei’s.

It likely had something to do with the earlier wound Xu Qingmei inflicted on Jing Huai’s arm.

Remembering how he had been this woman’s target before, and she had ’attacked’ him twice, even the usually composed Prime Minister Shen couldn’t help a thin layer of sweat from forming on his forehead.

Jing Huai remained in the villa for less than half an hour.

After experimenting with what the adult had given her and seeing its effects on Jing Huai, Xu Qingmei kicked him out.

She found the control surprisingly easy.

From now on, Jing Huai was utterly under her control, following commands exactly.

This total control over another person was indeed pleasurable.

Enjoying this sense of accomplishment, Xu Qingmei’s ambitions quietly grew.

A merely accidentally drugged Jing Huai was not enough.

If she could use this method on the one she deemed more promising, the satisfaction would undoubtedly surpass what it was now.

As for the adult’s claim that she was unfit, how would she know without trying?

Besides, she felt quite competent now.

Also, what the adult said, is it necessarily right?
