After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146: Chapter 146 Jiang Ting’s Eyes Bulged Like Copper Bells

Hearing Lu Jingyan’s words, Jiang Ting’s eyes bulged like brass bells, her mouth agape with shock.

"What, what did you say...?"

Lu Jingyan spoke sternly: "A few days ago, you told me that when you last saw Old Mr. Fu, his complexion was rosy, his eyes clear, and his spirits were so good that he seemed to have gotten younger by a decade."

"Do you know why? It’s because Old Mr. Fu had previously taken a miracle cure given to him by Shengsheng, that’s why he had such a great change."

"Do you realize how precious that medicine Shengsheng has is? It would be snatched up even if it was sold for tens of millions apiece on the market."

"Ordinary people don’t even know Shengsheng’s true identity, let alone where to find her to save their lives. Now that Shengsheng is going to save You Ming, and you are actually trying to stop her."

"Just now, you insulted Shengsheng in front of so many people, and she didn’t even argue back, but took You Ming straight to the room."

"Why do you think she did that? Is it because she’s eager to be reprimanded and doesn’t mind being called a low-life scum?"

"It’s because she cares about You Ming, cares about him more than herself, and sees saving You Ming’s life as more important than anything else!"

Lu Jingyan’s words left Jiang Ting utterly dumbfounded.

How could it be possible... Shengsheng is so young, how could she possibly possess such advanced medical skills and be the closed-door disciple of Master of Traditional Medicine Feng Guolin.

But Lu Jingyan was serious, and both Lu Siyan and Lu Youye looked as if they had known about this all along; Jiang Ting couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.

Clearly, they had all witnessed Shengsheng’s medical skill, which is why they trusted and were so certain that if Shengsheng said she could save You Ming, she definitely could.

Where would Jiang Ting have imagined that a girl who seemed inconsequential and ill-fitting for public appearances, a girl like a private child, would actually have such an incredible identity, and even be able to help her son in a critical moment? She felt a complex mix of emotions.

If Shengsheng was just bragging, she would definitely make her regret it.

But if Shengsheng really could save You Ming... then she would be her son’s lifesaver.

On the other hand.

Lu Sheng held Lu Youming as she returned to her room, and placed him carefully on her bed, immediately locking the door from inside.

The entire electrical circuit of the Lu Family’s house had shorted out, and the room was still engulfed in pitch darkness, except for Black Bean poking its head out from the blankets, two round eyes emitting a dark green glow.

On the short walk over, the blood from Lu Youming’s neck had soaked Lu Sheng’s hands and her clothing.

Lu Youming was faintly slipping into unconsciousness due to continuous blood loss.

Lu Sheng raised a hand, and the next second, the floor lamp by the bed lit up, casting a soft, pale yellow glow.

Simultaneously, Lu Sheng placed her other hand over Lu Youming’s eyes and whispered softly, "Don’t be afraid, Fourth Brother, have a little sleep and when you wake up everything will be okay."

Then, Lu Youming fell completely unconscious.

Black Bean let out a ’meow’ and nimbly hopped beside Lu Sheng, instinctively licking the back of her hand.

The bedsheets were already stained with quite a bit of blood.

Lu Sheng placed her hand over the wound on Lu Youming’s neck, closed her eyes, and began transferring her Soul Power into his body to promote wound healing.

Lu Sheng was a Demon.

Demons are intrinsically evil and selfish, drawing power from humans to fortify themselves.

For a Demon, using Soul Power to harm people is effortless and also enhances their own strength.

But saving someone would require expending exponentially more Soul Power. The more difficult the life-saving, the greater the Essence expended.

Thus, most Demons would only harm people.

For instance, Ning Yu selling those poisoned medicines in the Black Market, not only does he earn human money, but when those poisoned die, his Soul Power strengthens.

Such a mechanism was also the reason why the Demon Hunter pursued her relentlessly in her past life.

Because in her last life, though she had lived incognito, she possessed many secret identities, such as Rosy, such as Panda, such as Mrs. Qiangwei...

These identities brought her the admiration of countless humans, making her very powerful.

The Demon Hunter, You Yi, feared that her strength would lead her to harm people, and the more she harmed, the stronger she would become. He feared she would wreak havoc in the Human Realm, thus he pursued her endlessly.

The other party never delved into whether she actually harmed anyone; in You Yi’s eyes, her mere existence was a threat to humanity, and therefore should be eradicated.
