Chapter 191: Chapter 191: I am the reaper!
Zhan Lan saw Wang’s impatient expression, but was not annoyed. She simply smiled and said, "This is a hundred-year-old ginseng."
Wang’s eyes lit up as she looked at Zhan Lan. Was the thing in her hands a hundred-year-old ginseng?
Don’t joke about that; she must have been deceived by a charlatan from the martial world.
It wasn’t until Zhan Lan opened the package in her hand that Wang’s eyes instantly brightened.
She relaxed her brow, took it over to smell and observe closely, then nodded, "Indeed, it is good ginseng."
Zhan Lan nodded in response, returning with a faint smile.
Ginseng has the effects of greatly replenishing vital energy, restoring pulse, consolidating expulsion, nourishing the spleen and the lungs, producing body fluid and nourishing blood, calming the spirit, and benefiting intelligence. It is suitable for Zhan Xincheng at this time.
And indeed, thousand-year-old ginseng is the stuff of legends and very hard to find; this kind of hundred-year-old ginseng, however, is certainly good.
Not wanting to delay, upon receiving such a fine item, Wang immediately had someone prepare it.
Zhan Lan watched Wang taking Zhan Xincheng’s pulse; she spoke softly in the same deferential manner as before she was reborn, "Grandmother, I’ve invited a doctor who is waiting in the side hall. Let’s have him look at Second Uncle!"
Wang frowned, she herself was a doctor; what kind of good doctor could Zhan Lan possibly invite?
She looked at Zhan Lan, who was still so respectful towards her grandmother; she said in a deep voice, "No need, I will slowly take care of your Second Uncle’s illness."
She knew in her heart that Zhan Xincheng’s illness, unless attended by a Divine Doctor, could only be dragged out slowly; no one could save him.
Half an hour later, Wang personally fed the freshly prepared ginseng soup to Zhan Xincheng, and his complexion actually improved a bit.
Turning back to look at Zhan Lan, Wang’s tone softened, "You have heart, fourth daughter."
"As the younger generation, this is what I should do." Zhan Lan then asked with concern, "How is big sister? I’ll go see her."
Having accepted help, Wang’s brow relaxed somewhat as she said, "Go see your big sister. She needs her younger sisters to talk with her and ease her mood."
Zhan Lan nodded and left, making her way to Zhan Liluo’s room.
"Miss, your fourth sister has come to see you!" Xiaoqin, Zhan Liluo’s maid, came to ask.
Lying on the bed, Zhan Liluo frowned and then flared up when she heard Zhan Lan’s name, "Don’t let her come in!"
Xiaoqin said with difficulty, "But it was the Old Madam who asked the fourth daughter to come see you, and Miss Zhan even brought a hundred-year-old ginseng. After the master took it, his complexion is much better!"
Zhan Liluo shook her head, "No, don’t let her in!"
She was afraid Zhan Lan would see her ghastly appearance now. Zhan Lan had nominally come to see her, but actually, was it not to humiliate her?
"Big sister, what are you afraid of? I’m not a bad person!" Zhan Lan pushed open the door, walking into Zhan Liluo’s room with a beaming smile.
When Zhan Liluo saw Zhan Lan, she covered her mouth because she no longer had a single tooth left, making her look like an old woman.
With an unsightly expression, she said, "Get out, I don’t want to see you."
With an injured look on her face, Zhan Lan exclaimed, "Ah, big sister, I know you’ve suffered through that painful incident and you’re not in a good mood. It’s okay, I won’t be angry with you!"
Suddenly, Zhan Lan lifted the blanket off Zhan Liluo and saw that her pant legs were empty beneath.
Angrily, Zhan Liluo dropped her hands from her mouth and pushed Zhan Lan away.
Zhan Lan looked at Zhan Liluo, "I’m just concerned about my sister, oh no, my sister-in-law!"
Suddenly, with a beaming smile, Zhan Lan looked at Zhan Liluo. Angered by Zhan Lan’s words, Zhan Liluo’s fury arose and she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Xiaoqin hurried forward, but Zhan Lan stopped her, took out a handkerchief from her bosom, and wiped the blood from the corner of Zhan Liluo’s mouth.
"Get lost!" Zhan Liluo could clearly feel that Zhan Lan had come to provoke her.
Zhan Lan threw away the handkerchief in her hand, and her smile faded from her face.
Zhan Liluo continued to rage, "Xiaoqin, where is my mother, where is my mother!"
Xiaoqin also didn’t dare to offend Zhan Lan, the newly named Martial Arts Champion, she did not dare to call for someone.
It was only after Zhan Liluo yelled out loud that Xiaoqin, frightened by the shout, ran out.
In the room, only Zhan Lan and Zhan Liluo remained. Zhan Liluo glared at Zhan Lan, her eyes bloodshot, "It’s all your fault, you’re the reaper!"
Zhan Lan sat down beside Zhan Liluo’s bed, gently covered her with the quilt, she was not angered by Zhan Liluo’s words, but silently sat on the bed, watching the enraged Zhan Liluo.
Her voice calm, she said: "Big sister, you’re a patient, whatever you want to say, say it, I am the reaper!"
In the instant their eyes met, Zhan Liluo shuddered, what was with Zhan Lan’s gaze?
Why did she, while gently looking at her, send shivers down her spine?
Zhan Liluo suddenly felt as if an icy snake was crawling up her back, she yelled, "Zhan Lan, get away, get away!"
Zhan Lan held down her flailing hands, still smiling as she said, "Big sister, don’t be so fierce, oh. Someone killed Ouyang Qingming, aren’t you happy about that?"
Upon hearing the name Ouyang Qingming, Zhan Liluo was startled, Ouyang Qingming was actually killed by Zhan Lan.
Wait, how did Zhan Lan know Ouyang Qingming had made her into a beauty pot, that she was her enemy!
Zhan Lan’s eyes brightened as she continued, "Right, someone turned the Great Elder into a man-pig and sent it to the black market, seems like there’s a gang in the black market that really likes man-pigs and beauty pots, so big sister, you’d better be a bit careful, huh!"
Zhan Lan’s voice deliberately lowered and elongated, Zhan Liluo looked at Zhan Lan’s deep eyes, suddenly feeling as though she was targeted by a venomous snake, her hairs standing on end.
She unconsciously clutched at the quilt, thinking darkly: What does Zhan Lan mean, how does Zhan Lan know about the Great Elder in the black market?
Could it be that all this was Zhan Lan’s doings.
Zhan Lan gently touched Zhan Liluo’s cheek with her finger, saying, "Big sister, you have to take good care of yourself, don’t let the bad guys target you, okay!"
Wherever Zhan Lan’s fingers touched, Zhan Liluo felt her skin crawl; she suddenly pushed Zhan Lan away forcefully.
Zhan Lan stepped back, her gaze suddenly turned cold, staring at her as she said, "Big sister, I will come visit you frequently!"
Zhan Liluo, seeing Zhan Lan’s smile, shrank back into the covers, frightened.
She always felt her current predicament had something to do with Zhan Lan.
But Zhan Lan was not even afraid to let her know.
Zhan Lan was warning her, intimidating her, if she were to speak carelessly, Zhan Lan had the ability to make her suffer in the black market like the Great Elder, or to die quietly.
Zhan Liluo had never been so afraid of Zhan Lan, if Zhan Lan wanted to, she could definitely find any opportunity, to kill her.
Could it be that Zhan Lan knew about her going to the black market to hire murderers, intentionally coming to take revenge on her!
Now Zhan Liluo was helpless and alone, her father was seriously injured, her grandparents were very disappointed in her, and her mother was a weak woman, she suddenly missed her younger brother Zhan Feng immensely.
If Zhan Feng were here, how could she possibly suffer such indignities!
Zhan Feng would definitely be able to kill Zhan Lan for her!
She didn’t know since when Zhan Lan, this formerly oppressed girl, had become the most formidable granddaughter of the Zhan Family, someone she could not afford to offend!
While Zhan Liluo was in a state of turmoil, Xiaoqin’s voice came from outside the door.
Xiaoqin pushed the door open, her eyes tearful as she looked towards Zhan Lan and Zhan Liluo and said, "It’s no good, Mr. Zhan Feng, he..."
Xiaoqin choked and did not finish her sentence.
Upon hearing her brother’s name, Zhan Liluo urgently asked, "What happened to Zhan Feng?"
