Chapter 275: Chapter 274: What to Repay With?

About ten minutes later, Zhang Xiaoshan released Xu Jing’s leg.

As the snake venom was drawn out, Xu Jing’s consciousness had cleared up a lot. She hurriedly closed her legs and rearranged her torn skirt to cover her body roughly.

"Eat this fruit."

Zhang Xiaoshan handed a Gold and Silver Fruit to Xu Jing.

"Eek, what a strange fruit, why does it have two colors?"

"It doesn’t have poison, does it? Zhang Xiaoshan, are you really trying to kill me to silence me?"

Xu Jing held the Gold and Silver Fruit in her hand and examined it under the tranquil moonlight, her expression full of suspicion.

Zhang Xiaoshan said irritably.

"If I really wanted to poison you, I wouldn’t have risked sucking out the venom."

"This thing is called Gold and Silver Fruit. It’s rare and can remove all poisons. You’re really lucky."

"Besides, the price of the fruit in your hand is tens of thousands. The cost of harming you would be too high, don’t you think?"

"What, tens of thousands?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jing was startled and hurriedly handed the fruit back to Zhang Xiaoshan, saying in a panic.

"My monthly salary isn’t even three thousand, I don’t have money to give you, I won’t eat it, take it back."

Seeing Xu Jing react this way, Zhang Xiaoshan laughed.

"Look at you, you believe anything I say? Hahaha, you got tricked, silly girl."

"You, you dared to deceive me? I knew it, how could a wild fruit be that expensive."

Xu Jing glared at Zhang Xiaoshan and then ate the Gold and Silver Fruit.

Zhang Xiaoshan watched in pain.

The way Xu Jing was biting wasn’t just into a fruit, it felt like she was biting into Zhang Xiaoshan’s own heart.

However, at this point, Zhang Xiaoshan couldn’t care less about that; saving a life was his priority, and besides, he could test the effects of the Gold and Silver Fruit.

Soon, Xu Jing had completely eaten the fruit.

Her pale complexion gradually regained some color, and the black shades on her lips also began to fade.

Five or six minutes later, a glow returned to Xu Jing’s beautiful big eyes.

She stood up from the ground.

She spun around twice on the spot.

"Am I all right? I’m better already, just like that?"

"Zhang Xiaoshan, thank you, this wild fruit works even better than professional serum."

"And I feel even more comfortable and refreshed than before, I had a slight fever earlier, and now I don’t feel it at all."

Zhang Xiaoshan was also amazed.

The black snake from earlier was highly venomous.

With conventional medical methods, it would be very difficult to save a person, and even if you did, it would take a tremendous amount of medical resources, not to mention months to recover.

However, Xu Jing had merely eaten a Gold and Silver Fruit and in just a few minutes, she was back to normal? No, she was even healthier than before she was poisoned.

The detoxifying effects of the Gold and Silver Fruit were unbelievably miraculous.

"That’s not right."

While Zhang Xiaoshan was contemplating, Xu Jing came to her senses. She looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with a mix of worry and guilt.

"This fruit works so well, it couldn’t really be worth tens of thousands, could it?"

"You were lying to me just now, weren’t you?"

Zhang Xiaoshan laughed.

"You finally caught on, but I wasn’t really lying, that was a white lie. If I hadn’t exaggerated, you wouldn’t have been confident to eat it."

"You realize, such a beautiful woman like you, if you had perished, it would have been such a pity, right?"

Xu Jing was almost in tears in an instant.

"Then, what can I give you to repay you? Let’s do this, I’ll pay you monthly, okay?"

"After I receive my salary, I’ll give you half each month?"

"Get out of here with that. With your little salary, you’re just about managing to support yourself. Since I gave it to you, I never intended for you to return it. But since you insist on repaying me, how about you pay me in ’flesh’?"

Zhang Xiaoshan smirked as he reached out a hand toward Xu Jing.

"You filthy rascal."

Xu Jing took a step back, but there was no anger on her face; she knew Zhang Xiaoshan was joking.

"Anyway, I don’t care, you saved my life, and I definitely have to pay you back."

Zhang Xiaoshan looked up at the sky, worried his sister-in-law might be looking for him, so he didn’t argue with Xu Jing any further.

"Fine, as you wish, let’s head back, there are too many wild animals here, and I’m worried about you running into danger."

Xu Jing’s heart was immediately warmed by his concern.

"Then okay, could you escort me back to school?"

"Ah? I’m supposed to escort you?"

Zhang Xiaoshan was stunned.

Xu Jing frowned and pouted, voicing her grievances.

"Didn’t you just say there are too many wild beasts around here, and it’s dangerous? Moreover, your actions ruined my skirt. What if I run into a bad guy? Don’t you know what the men in White Dragon Village are like?"

Zhang Xiaoshan conceded that point, considering a bunch of old bachelors encountering a disheveled young beauty would indeed normally stir some thoughts.

"Alright then."

Zhang Xiaoshan shouldered his backpack to leave.

Xu Jing promptly grabbed onto Zhang Xiaoshan’s arm.

"Why are you pulling me?"

"It’s the middle of the night, I’m scared," Xu Jing looked around cautiously at the dim sky, then involuntarily leaned closer to Zhang Xiaoshan, forcefully pulling his arm toward her chest, nestling it snugly between her peaks.

Zhang Xiaoshan swallowed, and instantly gave up any resistance.
