Ye Ling continued, “Then when I was examining Ah Hui’s body, I gave her the antidote. However, at this time, Ah Hui’s vital signs were gradually returning to normal. She couldn’t wake up immediately. After delaying for a while, I stimulated a few of Ah Hui’s acupuncture points and woke her up.”

Yun Jie’s face was filled with shock. Then, she gave him a thumbs up. “That’s amazing. It looks like it can bring someone back from the dead.”

Ye Ling smiled faintly. “Of course, resurrecting the dead is impossible. The medical term ‘bringing back to life’ simply means allowing critically ill patients to survive. I’m not at the stage where I can revive patients from death. I hope to attain such expertise in the future.”

Yun Jie glanced outside and inquired, “What’s your plan next? Ah Hui can’t stay in the pharmacy forever. What if that old woman decides to take her back? Both that old woman and her eldest daughter-in-law have a habit of mistreating people. If Ah Hui goes back, won’t she still be bullied?”

Ye Ling’s expression turned serious. “Certainly, we can’t let Ah Hui go back. My conversation with them today was just a delay tactic. Ah Hui’s body is very weak now. Even if she runs away, they’ll soon find her.”

Yun Jie breathed a sigh of relief. Since Ye Ling had a plan, she wasn’t worried.

After a lengthy shower, Ah Hui changed into Ye Ling’s old clothes and emerged.

“Ah Hui, where is your home?” Ye Ling asked as she sat across from Ah Hui.

Ah Hui mentioned a place, but neither Ye Ling nor Yun Jie had heard of it.

“Ah Hui, do you want to return home?” Ye Ling asked.

Upon hearing Ye Ling’s words, Ah Hui vigorously shook her head.

Ye Ling furrowed her brow slightly. Ah Hui didn’t want to return home?

“Why don’t you want to go home?”

Tears welled up in Ah Hui’s eyes. “Dad and Mom don’t like me. There’s always not enough food at home. I can only eat what’s left after my brother finishes eating. If he finishes, then I won’t have anything. They sold me to human traffickers. I knelt and begged, but they didn’t even look back at me. I don’t want to go back.”

Ah Hui closed her eyes in pain.

Ye Ling and Yun Jie fell silent. After a while, Ye Ling sighed. “That’s true. In a normal family, why would they sell you to human traffickers?”

Yun Jie looked a little worried. “So what do we do? It won’t be long before that old woman comes looking for Ah Hui.”

“Don’t worry.” Ye Ling reassured after a moment of contemplation. “I’ll arrange everything. Ah Hui, for now, you’ll stay in the pharmacy. This is Sister Yunjie, and there’s another sister named Ji Mei. When I’m not around, listen to them both.”

Ah Hui nodded vigorously. “I will!”

Her expression was like a stray kitten that had been picked up by someone and afraid of being abandoned again.

At night, Ye Ling was on duty, and Ah Hui sat beside her.

Perhaps because she had slept for a long time after taking the pill Ye Ling gave her, she didn’t feel sleepy at all.

Ye Ling took some of the cheaper and more common herbs from the medicine box on the wooden shelf and stacked them together, letting Ah Hui remember the characteristics of those herbs.

While Ah Hui was carefully observing the herbs, Ye Ling looked at the door.

Would Min Nan come over tonight?

She wondered if what happened in the pharmacy today would spread to Willow Village. If it spread quickly, Min Nan would probably hear about it very soon.

After Min Nan heard about it, he would probably come looking for her, right?

“Ah Hui, I’m going out for a while,” Ye Ling said.

Ye Ling left the pharmacy and walked through the courtyard. She stood beside the door and leaned against it.

Not long after, Ye Ling saw a familiar figure.

Min Nan!

Ye Ling immediately walked toward Min Nan. Soon, the two of them met.

“I know. Let’s talk inside,” Min Nan said directly.

“Let’s talk outside,” Ye Ling said, a little embarrassed. “Ah Hui is inside.”

Then, the two of them walked along the side of the road and talked about what had happened during the day.

After Ye Ling explained her plan to help Ah Hui to Min Nan, Min Nan looked at Ye Ling with a deep gaze. “So everything you said in the past was a lie.”

Min Nan’s sudden words stunned Ye Ling.

When did she lie to Min Nan?

“What…what did I lie to you about?” Ye Ling asked blankly..
