Since Mr. Li had not seen Ma Ji before, he would not have known how she used me to test her ‘medicine’. So he had to take guesses to reverse-engineer the process.

Lin Ran’s words warmed my heart. My cold heart seemed to be warming up bit by bit. This was a very strange feeling.

Lin Ran was anxious. “Mr. Li, you… you have to think of another way. You’re an expert. You must have a way!”

Mr. Li snorted.

I looked at Lin Ran. “Doctor Lin, it’s alright. Let Mr. Li do his work. As long as I don’t die, everything is fine.”

Mr. Li said, “The girl has the right understanding.” He turned to Lin Ran, “And you call yourself a doctor? Can an illness be treated in a hurry?”

Lin Ran quickly nodded. “Yes, you’re right. I was too anxious. Mr. Li, you don’t know how much Nanxing has suffered. Seeing her like this, my heart aches. I can’t bear to let her fiance, her little uncle, and her two best friends see her like this. Let me tell you. If they did, I reckon they would skin the culprit alive!” Lin Ran swung his fist fiercely.

Mr. Li did not refute him. Instead, he sighed lightly. “This is all fate. She has to bear this destiny because she is a descendant of the Tong family!”

Lin Ran and I looked at him at the same time. “What’s wrong with being a descendant of the Tong Family?”

Mr. Li seemed to be regretting his words. He wiped his dark face and stopped talking.

I looked at him. “Mr. Li, my surname is Nan. Strictly speaking, I can’t be considered a pure descendant of the Tong family.”

Mr. Li sighed. “It doesn’t matter. The stronger genes will always prevail.”

I combed his words in my mind. Some things were falling into place. I asked him for confirmation. “Mr. Li, does the Tong family have a hereditary disease that is hard to cure? If my blood is used correctly, it can be used as the antidote?”

Mr. Li did not say anything. He looked at me as if he was frozen.

I continued, “The person who planted the voodoo on me is called Ma Ji. She’s the bitch that you mentioned. For the past few years, she has been extracting my blood for experiments. But I don’t think she has found a solution. However, her direction must be right because my uncle is still alive. Since he’s alive, there’s still hope. After three years of failed results, they decided to move from the island to find other clues left behind by my parents.

“I was the one who led them to that island based on my intuition. The main house used to belong to my parents. My uncle and Ma Ji moved in while they had Banxia and me live outside the house. I believe they have turned that place over. However, they didn’t find anything. It was why they decided to move. However, there was an accident before the move could happen…”

I looked out of the window coldly.

There was no sound in the car.

Lin Ran was shocked.

Mr. Li did not say anything.

I exhaled. “It’s not my fate to die. I broke free from their control. I also hope that they are still alive. I need them to explain to me what they have done. I can’t let my years of suffering go to waste. When we find them, I will give you Ma Ji. However, I have a condition of my own.” I glanced at Mr. Li and said softly, “I want to return Ma Ji everything she has given to me.”

Mr. Li heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “No problem.”

No one would think we were talking about heavy subjects based on the levity of our tone.
