Ms. Doctor Divine

Meanwhile, Lingyun retreated to her own room to study and search for a solution to Gu Chaoyan\'s condition.

As Lingyun entered the room, Zhou Huaijin\'s face lit up with anticipation, believing that Lingyun must have found a solution.

However, despite Zhou Huaijin\'s hopeful gaze, Lingyun couldn\'t help but feel disappointed in herself. Nevertheless, she proceeded according to the plan and said, "No, I have thoroughly studied the issue in my room. The Elder Miss might have been drugged, or perhaps not. However, her condition goes beyond my expertise."

"…"

"But," Lingyun continued, her voice filled with a sudden realization, "the Elder Miss is a Phoenix Girl, and ordinary drugs should not have affected her unless…\'\' Lingyun paused, as if struck by a memory. "Could it be that the poison has been with her since she was young, even before she became a Phoenix Girl? Or perhaps she acquired it upon becoming a Phoenix Girl? This is no simple matter."

However…

All of these were mere conjectures and not confirmed truths.

Lingyun gently shook her head. "If we truly wish to understand what is happening with the Elder Miss, we would likely require the assistance of a trusted and highly skilled practitioner. Ordinary doctors and imperial physicians would be of no help in this matter."

Zhou Huaijin remained silent, absorbing Lingyun\'s words.

"The realm of cultivation is highly intricate and far from simple," Lingyun continued. "For instance, Piaomiao Pavilion possesses knowledge and techniques that I have barely touched upon."

Piaomiao Pavilion was an esteemed institution, but its practitioners refrained from employing their skills due to their fear of the Phoenix Girl.

Zhou Huaijin felt a deep sense of disappointment and suddenly became distressed.

Lingyun had spoken of studying the issue, raising his hopes that she might have a solution. However, she was now confirming that she had no solution at hand. In this circumstance, he felt utterly helpless in aiding Gu Chaoyan\'s health.

But…

They had just entered into the sacred bond of marriage! He would never allow anything to harm Gu Chaoyan.

Zhou Huaijin\'s complexion turned ashen, and a deep sense of anguish washed over him. He cared deeply for his wife and couldn\'t bear to see her suffer.

Lingyun immediately regretted revealing the truth. She should have offered him some semblance of hope instead.

She opened her mouth, intending to provide words of comfort.

However, Gu Chaoyan suddenly smiled. "Alright, you two. Don\'t be so pessimistic. I may be poisoned, but it\'s not something insurmountable. Firstly, I am a doctor myself, and I can explore possible solutions. Secondly, it\'s not a life-threatening poison; it only causes occasional discomfort. I can manage."

"Chaoyan!" Zhou Huaijin called out, looking grave.
