“Hurry, you all need to leave here and evacuate the crowd, quickly!” Bian Suwen said, enduring the pain.

Seeing this, Divine Doctor Xue suddenly realized something, almost feeling his soul leave his body. Bian Suwen’s idea of testing the poison on herself was noble, but because she had been in contact with various medicines for years, her blood contained certain medicinal properties. The poison of the Zhenyu Blood Prison was very unstable, and once it merged with Bian Suwen’s blood, it bypassed the usual days-long incubation period and was on the verge of erupting.

“Go!” Divine Doctor Xue decisively opened the heavy door of the monitoring room and pulled Lin Chen out.

Just as the door opened, Wang Haoran walked into the monitoring room. With his X-ray vision and lip-reading skills, Wang Haoran already knew everything discussed inside, even from outside. The door had been thick and locked, preventing him from entering earlier. Now, with Divine Doctor Xue and Lin Chen opening it, he naturally walked in.

“It’s dangerous inside, don’t go in!” Divine Doctor Xue warned.

But before he could finish, the door shut, and no matter how hard they pushed, it wouldn’t open again.

“Are you crazy? Get out of here!” Bian Suwen was both angry and anxious when she saw Wang Haoran enter.

Wang Haoran ignored her. Although the Zhenyu Blood Prison poison was terrifying, it was easy for Wang Haoran to neutralize it because his blood could detoxify it. Bian Suwen was a female protagonist, and it would be a pity if she died. He couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.

“Leave now, or you’ll die!” Bian Suwen tried to push Wang Haoran away when he didn’t listen.

Suddenly, Wang Haoran was reminded of melodramatic love dramas. He grabbed Bian Suwen’s hand and said, “Without you, life is meaningless.”

The cheesy line made his skin crawl, but it had the desired effect. Soon after, he received a system notification.

[Ding, the female protagonist Bian Suwen’s favorability towards the host has increased by 10. Current total favorability is 50 (Affectionate).]

[Ding, the host has influenced the plot direction, gaining 1800 villain points. Lin Chen’s protagonist halo -90, host’s villain halo +90!]

Bian Suwen gazed at Wang Haoran, her eyes filled with tenderness. “I understand your feelings, but my fate is unfortunate. We have no future together. Forget me and leave.”

“I’m not leaving. I can help…”

“There’s no time, leave now.” Bian Suwen sensed the poison in her body was about to erupt, so she interrupted Wang Haoran and tried to push him out with force.

Time was of the essence, and Wang Haoran knew he couldn’t explain everything. So, he bit his lip, and the taste of blood filled his mouth as he boldly stepped closer.

Bian Suwen saw his handsome face growing larger in her vision. By the time she realized what was happening, it was too late. A bloody taste filled her mouth. She understood that with such contact, Wang Haoran would also be poisoned by the Zhenyu Blood Prison.

Pushing him away, Bian Suwen said sorrowfully, “For me, you risked your life. Was it worth it?” Tears streamed down her face.

My life is precious, of course, I cherish it. I’m just helping you detoxify, Wang Haoran thought, but he didn’t say it out loud. Instead, he simply said, “Don’t speak.”

He transferred a bit of his blood to Bian Suwen’s mouth, which was enough to neutralize the poison. As long as she stayed calm, the poison would soon dissipate. The reasons were too complex to explain, and Wang Haoran didn’t want to bother.

Hearing those simple words, Bian Suwen was deeply moved. Yes, at this point, with death near, words were unnecessary. She just wanted to spend her last moments with the one she loved.

With this thought, Bian Suwen threw caution to the wind and wrapped her arms around his neck. Wang Haoran was taken aback and quickly pushed her away. I just saved you, and now this?!

He had bitten his lip earlier, and the wound hurt when touched. Bian Suwen’s actions were not appreciated by Wang Haoran. However, in her emotional state, she didn’t care, and Wang Haoran became the passive one.

Meanwhile…

[Ding, the female protagonist Bian Suwen’s favorability towards the host has increased by 10. Current total favorability is 60 (Affectionate).]

[Ding, the female protagonist Bian Suwen’s favorability towards the host has increased by 10. Current total favorability is 70 (Deeply in Love).]

…

[Ding, the female protagonist Bian Suwen’s favorability towards the host has increased by 10. Current total favorability is 90 (Unwavering Love).]

[Ding, the host has greatly influenced the plot direction, gaining 3800 villain points. Lin Chen’s protagonist halo -190, host’s villain halo +190!]

Though his mouth hurt, the series of system notifications made Wang Haoran forget all about it. He hadn’t expected to raise Bian Suwen’s favorability to 90 in such a short time. But upon reflection, it made sense. Due to a misunderstanding, Bian Suwen thought Wang Haoran’s actions were a willingness to die with her, which deeply moved her.

A minute later, Bian Suwen fainted in Wang Haoran’s arms due to the poison’s effects. However, the poison in her body had stabilized. As long as the “antidote” worked slowly, the poison would be neutralized.

Wang Haoran secretly disabled the monitoring room’s cameras and then detoxified the other three poisoned individuals. Afterward, he pretended to faint. Since Bian Suwen mistakenly believed Wang Haoran was willing to die for her, he naturally wouldn’t reveal his ability to detoxify. Otherwise, the truth would be exposed. Pretending to faint was the best option.

Outside, chaos ensued. Qiu Qianwei, Ji Shuiyao, and Liu Yue were extremely anxious. Especially Qiu Qianwei, who, after learning the situation from Divine Doctor Xue, was nearly frantic and insisted on checking inside. Divine Doctor Xue explained the danger, but Qiu Qianwei was determined, even at the risk of her life.

So, Divine Doctor Xue obtained some protective gear from the hospital. Fully equipped, Qiu Qianwei checked the monitoring room and informed Divine Doctor Xue outside. After assessing the situation, Divine Doctor Xue confirmed that the poison in Bian Suwen had not erupted. He bravely went in to check and found that not only was the poison stabilized, but it also showed signs of dissipating.

Overjoyed, Divine Doctor Xue arranged for Wang Haoran and Bian Suwen to be placed in separate hospital rooms.
