Qi Fang was both ashamed and anxious. "Only what?"
"Only, Madam's... Jade Liquid could only temporarily suppress the poison. I couldn't keep my internal energy circulating for long. Earlier, while forcing out the poison, my internal breath suddenly stagnated again, causing the poison to backlash. That was why... why I offended Madam," Song Qingshu explained.
Qi Fang's face flushed red as blood as she snapped, "Don't mention that again!"
Song Qingshu shrugged. "Since Madam doesn't want to hear it, I won't say any more."
After a moment of silence, Qi Fang bit her lip and asked, "Then how will you cure the poison in your body?"
Song Qingshu gave a bitter smile. "Naturally, I can only seize every chance when my internal energy recovers to force the poison out. I believe that one day, I'll expel it completely."
"How can your internal energy recover... Ah!" Qi Fang's mind had been a complete mess since earlier. Halfway through her question, she remembered that he had said he needed that thing to temporarily restore his internal energy. She immediately cried out, both embarrassed and furious, glaring fiercely at him.
Song Qingshu could only force himself to answer, "I see that Madam has to squeeze it out and pour it away every time anyway. Rather than wasting it, why not use it to cure my poison?"
"Don't even think about it!" Qi Fang refused without hesitation. Before, she had only reluctantly fed him some because he had been poisoned and unconscious. Now that he was awake, how could she give him something so shameful?
"Uh..." Song Qingshu could not help muttering, "It's not like I haven't drunk it before..."
"What did you say?" Qi Fang's pretty face turned pale with rage. If she had been properly dressed, she would have wanted nothing more
