Li Xinyue kept squeezing out the poisoned blood while moving outward, waiting until most of the toxic blood had come out before cleaning the wound thoroughly.
After caring for all this, Li Xinyue only turned to look at Li Rou'er.
"Apply the medicine you just chewed up on the wound."
Li Rou'er was still in a daze as if she had not heard Li Xinyue's words.
This angered Zhang Qing again.
"What are you still standing there for? I told you to apply the medicine!"
Li Rou'er was pulled back to her senses by this shout; she looked at Li Xinyue, then looked at Peng Wang's injury.
"Official... Sir, I dare not."
Zhang Qing was impatient; if it hadn't been for seeing the disgusting stuff in Li Rou'er's palm, he would have wanted to do it himself.
Helplessly, he could only continue to urge.
"Don't forget your status; do whatever you are told to do."
The woman who had just rushed over to protect Li Rou'er trembled and stepped forward.
"Sir, my young miss is timid. It's better if I do it!"
With that, Zhu took the chewed-up medicine from Li Rou'er's hand and applied it little by little to Peng Wang's wound.
"Auntie."
Li Rou'er's original intention was that when she said she was afraid, the officials would let Li Xinyue take action.
She didn't expect that her auntie would take the initiative so readily. Thinking of how she could not make Li Xinyue lose face, she got angry.
But with so many officials present, she didn't dare make trouble. She could only suppress the anger in her heart and wait for a chance to continue making things difficult for Li Xinyue.
At this moment, Zhou the Eighth was already somewhat anxious because he was worried about Peng Wang's condition. When he turned his head, he happened to meet Li Rou'er's cold eyes.
Such an expression made people feel disgusted as soon as they saw it.
"You two, don't just stand there. Go back to your places."
Zhu was timid, and when she saw the officials' fierce looks, her legs instantly went soft.
She didn't dare delay for a moment and hurriedly pulled Li Rou'er to run back.
Li Xinyue was going through the motions of helping Peng Wang treat his wound.
The antiserum in her space was the key to undoing the snake venom in his body.
With these officials coming and going around, she hasn't had a suitable chance yet to remove the antiserum from her space.
While Li Xinyue was trying to figure out what to do, Zhang Qing became impatient again.
"Can you cure snake venom? It's been so long since the medicine was applied. Why is the boss still showing no signs of improvement?"
Only after Li Xinyue finished speaking did Zhang Qing eagerly ask.
"I still have to use my master's exclusive medical techniques for curing the venom."
"What are you still waiting for then? Hurry up and treat him." Zhang Qing urged again.
"Sir, I already said it's an exclusive medical technique." In her heart, Li Xinyue scolded Zhang Qing for being stupid. He didn't understand her hint at all.
Then, a young official cleverly pulled Zhang Qing's sleeve.
"Brother Zhang, she means that no outsiders can watch while she treats the boss."
Zhang Qing suddenly realised, but he was also conflicted.
He looked at the other officials and was at a loss for a moment.
Because they were all somewhat uneasy about letting the unconscious boss leave their sight. If Li Xinyue had any malicious intentions, their responsibility would be great.
Seeing the men needing to be more precise, Li Xinyue was also somewhat impatient.
"I'll give you time to discuss it for one incense stick. If time is up, I'll be helpless, too."
She turned around to leave.
Seeing Li Xinyue about to leave, Zhou the Eighth called out to stop her.
"You come back to treat the boss. I'll take responsibility for any consequences."
The other officials looked at Zhou the Eighth in unison, with some relief on their faces.
They knew clearly in their hearts, too, that Peng Wang's condition was horrible. If they didn't let Li Xinyue treat him, he would only have a fate of waiting for death.
It's just that no one wanted to be the one to step up and make the decision.
Since someone was willing to come forward and decide, they all tacitly did not object.
Li Xinyue looked at the surroundings. Apart from several thick trees, there was almost no cover.
Fortunately, it was already dark, and no one would notice as long as she was vigilant when taking action.
"Carry him behind that thickest tree."
Eager to save the man, the officials did as told without a word, carrying Peng Wang to the location specified by Li Xinyue.
"Alright, all of you turn around and walk more than thirty steps away."
Without even turning her head, Li Xinyue spoke in a commanding tone.
Pricking up her ears to listen as the retreating footsteps grew smaller and smaller until they stopped, she started looking around.
Making sure no one could see her, she swiftly took out the antiserum and syringe from her space.
Looking at the antiserum in her hand, Li Xinyue felt quite pained.
This was the latest developed limited edition high-concentration antiserum. Due to the extremely precious materials needed to extract it, it had become priceless and unavailable on the market.
Through a stroke of luck, Li Xinyue had obtained these few vials of high-concentration antiserum and kept them in the clinic's refrigerator, unwilling to sell them.
It could only be said that Peng Wang was fortunate. If it weren't for running into her, he would undoubtedly have lost his life.
If it weren't for her space having a regeneration function, Li Xinyue would have been reluctant to use it on Peng Wang.
Intravenous injection of the antiserum would have a better effect, but the current situation did not allow Li Xinyue to operate that way. She could only choose intramuscular injection.
Using the tree to hide her actions, Li Xinyue diluted the antiserum with saline according to the ratio, then lifted Peng Wang's sleeve, disinfected, injected, and removed the needle, with her movements almost in one go.
After keeping the remaining packaging and syringe in her space, Li Xinyue carefully observed Peng Wang's breathing.
After about five minutes, Peng Wang's condition had greatly eased.
His originally somewhat purplish complexion from breathing difficulties gradually calmed, and his breathing became much smoother.
He estimated after one or two more hours, he would wake up.
After Li Xinyue injected Peng Wang with the antiserum, she did not leave in a hurry, intending to observe for a while longer until his condition was utterly stable before doing anything else.
While she was in no hurry, the waiting officials were anxiously fidgeting.
In the end, Zhang Qing still could not hold back and loudly asked, "Ms. Li, how is our boss's condition now?"
Li Xinyue disliked two types of patients' families the most in her previous life as a doctor.
One was those who doubted her. The other was those who impatiently urged her.
Zhang Qing had scored full marks on both these points.
"What's with the yelling? If you don't trust me, then go find another doctor."
Li Xinyue had this kind of temperament. Even if those people were officials, it was no use.
