Chapter 577: Chapter 575: Already Recovered_1

"Never again! Absolutely never again!" Xia Ningxing hastily raised her hand to swear.

At the moment she fainted, she almost thought she was going to die, and the thought of never seeing her family and friends again, especially him and Chuanchuan, made her unbearably upset, as if it was an irredeemable disaster.

She just didn’t want to go through that kind of pain ever again.

Lu Tingli reached out helplessly and touched her head, "It’s good that you know."

"You have no idea how scared I was when I heard that you had suddenly fainted—like it was the end of the world," he said, holding her hand tightly, his deep voice filled with sorrow.

"I’m sorry, Lu." Seeing how worried he was, Xia Ningxing also felt uneasy and couldn’t help but reflect, "I was just trying to bite off more than I could chew, hoping to quickly come up with an antidote to save everyone. But in doing so, I ignored the fact that I’m just a normal person, and my body isn’t made of iron. It can’t handle around-the-clock work."

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but sigh.

She hadn’t slept well in ages, nor had she had a proper meal. Her mind was consumed with medical research.

"Good to know!" Lu Tingli said, giving her a disgruntled glance.

At this rate, even an iron body would break down!

It was like courting death!

"You’re not allowed to overdo it like this again, understand?" he said again, warning her sternly and fiercely.

Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but sigh, "Lu, even if you want me to push myself now, I just can’t. I’m stuck and don’t even know where to exert my energy anymore."

"Didn’t I come up with a prescription before to delay the death of those infected with the poison? But that was supposed to be a cure. I don’t know why it only extends the patients’ lives."

"These past few days, I’ve tried many things, but I just can’t improve the formula any further. I’m completely out of ideas."

Xia Ningxing couldn’t express how troubled she was, her brows furrowed tightly, her face the picture of helplessness.

She had tried every possible combination of appropriate herbs she could think of, but nothing worked.

Lu Tingli pursed his lips and said, "As long as you get your health back first, there will always be a way to figure this out."

As he spoke, he lifted his hand and pulled her into his arms to be her solid support.

In his eyes, she was more important than anyone or anything else.

If the whole world was there, but she was gone, then what was the point of anything?

"Don’t worry, Lu. I will take good care of myself later," Xia Ningxing assured him with a smile, seeing that he kept telling her to rest.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Lu Tingli had been looking forward to spending more time alone with Xia Ningxing and was immediately displeased by the disturbance.

"It’s me." The voice of the old master came from outside.

Xia Ningxing quickly said, "Grandpa, please come in."

Following that, the door opened, and the old master walked in with the little one in his arms.

When he saw Xia Ningxing, the little one was so excited that he stretched out his little hands toward her, then turned his face fiercely toward the old master and "howled" as if urging him to hand him over to his mother quickly.

The old master sighed wistfully, "Stinky boy, forgetting your great-grandfather as soon as you see your mom!"

Despite his complaints, the old master still handed the little one over to Xia Ningxing.

Xia Ningxing reached out her hands to take him, tenderly stroking his head.

The little fellow snuggled in her arms, occasionally pouting his little mouth to kiss Xia Ningxing.

The little guy’s intrusion into their relationship caused Lu Tingli’s face to gradually darken.

If he had known it would be like this, he would rather not have had a child.

After resting for two days, Xia Ningxing returned to the health department.

Before leaving, the little guy looked at her with yearning eyes, his tiny hands clutching the corner of her clothes, making baby babbling sounds as if begging her not to leave.

"Chuanchuan, be good, okay? Mommy will come back as soon as possible. You’re a little man, so you can’t cry like last time, okay?" Xia Ningxing bent down, while straightening the bib around the little guy’s neck, she spoke to him earnestly.

The little guy sniffled and, ultimately, silently released the corner of her clothes he was clutching, then was held by Lu Tingli as they watched her walk away.

Because if he cried, Mommy would be sad too, so the little guy held back his tears, determined not to cry out loud.

Only after Xia Ningxing was far away did the little guy throw his arms around Lu Tingli’s neck and cry his heart out.

"Coward!" Lu Tingli looked at him disdainfully, yet gently took out a tissue to wipe his little face.

On this side.

When Xia Ningxing returned to the health department, ready to start a new drug experiment, she saw several unfamiliar faces in Laboratory No. 1.

There were about seven or eight of them, the oldest being over fifty and the youngest looking to be in their early twenties, about her age.

There were men and women alike.

Were these the Traditional Medicine experts who had arrived during her convalescence?

Xia Ningxing guessed silently.

Upon her arrival, these strangers didn’t even glance at her, as if she didn’t exist, their faces expressing arrogance and indifference.

Their condescending demeanor was apparent.

They disdained her, and Xia Ningxing disdained them in return, ignoring them as she prepared to do her own work.

"Miss Xia is back!" The senior traditional doctors who had worked with Xia Ningxing greeted her with smiles, and in unison, they asked, "Are you feeling better?"

Others cared for her, and she cared for them in return; she instantly responded with a smile, "I have recovered, thank you for the concern."

"Glad to hear you’re better," nodded the senior doctors.

Then, one of the senior doctors introduced Xia Ningxing to those people, "Miss Xia, let me introduce you. These individuals are experts from the Hidden World Traditional Medicine Family."

The incident this time was so severe that the typically aloof Traditional Medicine Families could no longer remain indifferent, leading them to dispatch their most capable doctors to various health organizations to collaborate on drug research.

They were divided into two groups in the Capital City, one at the suburban research center and one at the urban research center.

Hidden World Medical Family?

That extremely mysterious family with generations of Traditional Medicine heritage—the Ning Family!?

Xia Ningxing was taken aback.

It was said that the Ning Family possessed many lost medical classics, acupuncture techniques, secret formulas, and the like. Each of their ancestors was a renowned top-tier Traditional Medicine practitioner in history. Although they were not as miraculous as bringing the dead back to life, they could save anyone who still had a breath.

Among the well-known doctors in the family were Ning Bianlin, Ning Huatuo, Ning Shimiao, and other traditional doctors.

With such impressive ancestors generation upon generation, it was no wonder that these people were so full of pride.
