At dusk, in a ward of the hospital.

Lu Chen, who had been sleeping for a while, finally woke up.

However, as soon as I opened my eyes, a surprising voice rang in my ears.

"Hey, the surname Lu, you are not dead?"

Lu Chen looked in the sound and saw Cao Anan sitting next to him, staring at him blankly.

"Why, I'm not dead, you seem to be very disappointed?" Lu Chen said angrily.

"Ahem...that, I was just a little surprised." Cao Anan smiled awkwardly.

"Where is your sister?" Lu Chen was too lazy to care.

"Oh, she's asking for medicine for you."

Cao Anan looked up and down and said, "I heard that you are sucking the black dead snake venom. This thing is very powerful and blood-threatening! It's a miracle that you can live until now!"

"Yes, the Black Death Snake Venom is indeed powerful. It can actually make me sleep? It is worthy of being one of the top ten amazing poisons." Lu Chen sighed.

With his physical fitness, he is almost invincible.

However, the Black Death Snake Venom requires him to sleep to resolve it, which is really terrifying!

"Why do you say something strange?" Cao Anan grabbed his head.

Before she could come to her senses, two people suddenly walked in from the door.

One is Concubine Cao Xuan, and the other is a beautiful young woman dressed in bright clothes and plump figure.

The beautiful young woman is somewhat similar to the sisters Cao Xuanfei. She is not only dressed brightly, but also has a very strong aura.

The aura of a superior person was revealed all over his body.

"Lu Chen! You finally woke up? How do you feel?"

Concubine Cao's eyes lit up and she hurriedly came to the bedside.

"I felt pretty good after a sleep." Lu Chen smiled.

"Come on, this is the secret medicine I just asked for. You should take it with water and make sure it is safe."

Concubine Cao Xuan stuffed a small white bottle into Lu Chen's hand, and poured a cup of hot water over.

"Secret medicine? What secret medicine?" Lu Chen was a little curious.

"Don't underestimate it. This is the magic doctor Jiang Baichuan. After three years of careful development, the Dedu Powder can cure various strange poisons!" said Concubine Cao Xuan.

"Jiang Baichuan?"

Lu Chen was stunned and seemed a little surprised.

"What, do you know Doctor Jiang?" Concubine Cao raised her eyebrows.

"I've been lucky enough to meet you before." Lu Chen did not deny it.

A few years ago, Jiang Baichuan was hunted by his enemies. He happened to pass by and saved the other party's life.

As for Dedu Powder, it was also the recipe he gave to Jiang Baichuan.

"Doctor Jiang has always been a divine dragon who sees his head but not his tail. It is not easy to see him. You should take Jiedu Powder first to avoid any accidents." Concubine Cao Xuan urged.

"There is no need for Jiedu Powder. The remaining poison in my body has been cleared. You might as well take it back." Lu Chen declined politely.

"How can you return the baby who has finally been deceived? No matter whether it is a matter of time or not, you should keep it in case of emergency."

Concubine Cao Xuan did not say anything and stuffed the Deduo Powder into her pocket.

Lu Chen had no choice but to accept it.

No matter what, it is all good intentions after all.

"Oh by the way, there is another thing. I just saw Li Qingyao at the entrance of the hospital." Concubine Cao Xuan said suddenly.

"Oh? What did she do in the hospital?" Lu Chen was a little surprised.

"I heard that Mr. Li is seriously ill and is being rescued in the hospital."

"Seriously ill?" Lu Chen's face changed: "Are you sure?"

"It should be true. They are downstairs now." Concubine Cao Xuan said.

"I'll go and have a look."

Lu Chen didn't say much, and immediately got up and went out.

Mr. Li treated him as if he was born. Now that he suddenly became seriously ill, he naturally could not sit idly by.

"Concubine Xuan, you were wasting a favor from my Cao family because of him?"

At this time, the beautiful young woman standing beside her suddenly spoke.

This person is Cao Xuanfei's mother, Chen Shuang!

"I'll pay it back for the favor I owe to Doctor Jiang, it has nothing to do with you." Concubine Cao Xuan said calmly.

"What? Do you like that guy just now?" Chen Shuang frowned slightly.

"So what if you like?" Concubine Cao Xuan raised her chin.

His words were not shy at all, and even had some provocation.

"You should know that it is impossible between you two. He is just an unknown little character; and you are the daughter of a wealthy family and the future head of the Cao family. The status of you two is very different!" Chen Shuang reminded.

"I don't care." Concubine Cao Xuan looked indifferent.

"But I care!"

Chen Shuangyi said righteously: "You can be willful in other things, but the marriage is not good! Don't forget that you have already had a engagement with Shangguan Hong!"

"Sorry, I have no interest in Shangguan Hong." Cao Xuanfei said

"You have no choice but to make the decision on this matter! You are the eldest lady of the Cao family. While enjoying wealth and prosperity, you must also bear the corresponding responsibilities!" Chen Shuang scolded.

"Responsibility? Haha... Is the responsibility you mentioned is to get to power through marriage?" Cao Xuanfei sneered.

"I am for your own good and for the whole family. Shangguan Hong is the pride of heaven. He is already the last general at a young age and his future is limitless! If you marry him, it will be a perfect match!" Chen Shuang said.

"I want to marry you, I won't marry anyway!" Concubine Cao Xuan was very straightforward.

"Why are you so obsessed? Once you refuse to marry, the position of the head of the Cao family will never fall on you! Do you understand it?!"

"It doesn't matter, I'm not interested anyway."

"Is it worth it that kid who sacrifices your future?"

"Of course it's worth it. In my eyes, Lu Chen will never be worse than Shangguan Hong!"

"You just trust him so much?" Chen Shuang had a calm face.

"That's right!" Concubine Cao Xuan held her head high.

Hearing this, Chen Shuang suddenly fell silent.

As if she had made some decision, she took a deep breath and said coldly: "Okay! Since you don't give up, I'll give you a chance! If that kid can complete my three tests and marry the Shangguan family, I will never mention it again!"

"What test?" Concubine Cao raised her eyebrows.

"First, defeat Ma Tianhao and prove his ability!" Chen Shuang said.

"Is it a bit difficult for Ma Tianhao to have the Xuanwu Gate as his backer? " Concubine Cao frowned.

"Hmph! If you can't even deal with Ma Tianhao, why should you enter my Cao family's door? Why should you fight against Shangguan Hong?!"

"Anyway, I have given you a chance. If you can't do it, you can honestly return to the provincial capital to get married!"

After throwing a word, Chen Shuang turned around and left.
