Chapter 442: 442. Reward you with another chance

After putting their daughter to sleep, Su Liang and Gu Ling kept busy until the second half of the night, finally making the medicine determined under Weng Ming’s guidance during the day. Now they had an abundance of materials at their disposal, and lacking none, quickly gathered them all.

Looking at the two small round pills on the table, Su Liang sighed with relief, “Finally… but we still don’t know the effect; only after Lian Shan has taken it tomorrow will we know if it works. I hope nothing goes wrong.” Both she and Weng Ming could confirm that the medicine was harmless to people, but they couldn’t be entirely sure of its effects on memory.

“Let’s sleep,” Gu Ling said as he put the two pills in a bottle and cleaned up the cluttered table.

The two of them went to bed after a simple wash.

Early the next morning, Su Liang got up and went to the dungeon to see Nian Ruxue.

Nian Ruxue was still alive but on the verge of madness. Seeing Su Liang, she couldn’t possibly have a friendly face. She knew Su Liang wouldn’t kill her for the time being, but she couldn’t let her go either. The daily torture drove her almost mad.

Su Liang didn’t bother with small talk and directly controlled Nian Ruxue, forcing a pill into her mouth.

Nian Ruxue stiffened and fell unconscious.

What Su Liang fed Nian Ruxue was an amnesic drug. She and Gu Ling had made the antidote last night, planning to have Lian Shan test it. But upon waking today, Su Liang decided to find someone in the mansion to test it on first, and Nian Ruxue was the chosen one.

After taking Nian Ruxue’s pulse, Su Liang didn’t notice any abnormalities and thought she would wake up soon.

About a quarter of an hour later, Su Liang saw Nian Ruxue’s eyelashes flutter, indicating she was waking up.

As soon as Nian Ruxue opened her eyes, Su Liang saw the confusion on her face.

Nian Ruxue stared blankly at Su Liang, and then around the room, mumbling, “Who are you…?”

Su Liang didn’t answer but took out another pill made last night and shoved it into Nian Ruxue’s mouth.

This time, Nian Ruxue did not faint, but held her head and kept complaining of a headache. Su Liang thought it was due to the strong stimulation the drug had caused her brain in such a short time.

As she kept yelling, Nian Ruxue began to curse Su Liang, her eyes filled with hatred, “What have you done to me…?”

Su Liang saw that Nian Ruxue had already remembered their past grudges, her expression the same as before.

With that, Su Liang left without asking her anything else.

Returning to the Yuanming Pavilion, Su Liang told Gu Ling, “It should be fine. Let Lian Shan try it too. I don’t know if the longer memory loss will have any impact.”

After breakfast, Su Liang and Gu Ling, along with Gu Xiaonuan, personally went to the Lian Mansion, and Weng Ming also joined them.

Previously, Su Liang had always been busy, so Madam Lin often brought Lian Shan to the Su Mansion, while Su Liang rarely visited the Lin’s Family. Seeing her suddenly at their door with a child in tow, Madam Lin was overjoyed, “What a great day! Xiaonuan is here!”

Madam Lin held Gu Xiaonuan and saw an unfamiliar old man with them. Assuming there was some business, she quickly invited them to take a seat.

Yuan Pei happened to be at home as well.

Once all the Lin Family members, except Lian Shan in Jiaye City, had gathered, Su Liang began to speak. She introduced Weng Ming first, and then talked about the amnesic drug and the antidote they had made.

The Lin Family members were all a bit surprised. Lian Shan had lost her memory for over a year, and they had never thought her memory could be restored, as Su Liang had been unable to help at the time.

“No wonder you can become a Divine Doctor, Xiaoliang. You are still studying it after so long.” Madam Lin sighed.

It was not long ago that Madam Lin learned about Su Liang’s involvement in the case of Ying Ying’s memory loss.

“Although it’s good that she’s alright, one of my masters has also lost his memory. He’s old and has no children, so he’s been living by his memory alone. The memory loss causes him great pain and he’s unable to face reality,” Su Liang spoke of Old White. Lian Shan, after all, was young, and she had loved ones who care for and support her, as well as a happy and complete family. The impact of her memory loss was far less than that of Old White’s.

Continuing, Su Liang said, “Secondly, they were captured previously. If they can regain their memories, they may provide some important information that could help us solve our current biggest problem.”

With these words, Su Liang explained to the Lin Family members why it was necessary to make the antidote. Su Liang also mentioned that they had tested it on someone and it was harmless to the body. However, everyone’s constitution is different and it might not be necessary for Lian Shan to recover those memories, so they wanted to consult the Lin family members.

The reason why Lian Shan also tried the antidote after Nian Ruxue was because Nian Ruxue wouldn’t cooperate for Su Liang to carefully observe her situation after taking the antidote. It required the person who took the medicine to explain it to him to know how well the memory was restored.

After listening to what Su Liang had said, Lian Shan quickly spoke, “If I can recover, of course, it’s best.” It was different hearing about the situation from others than having the memory herself.

Father Lin, Mother Lin, and Yuan Pei all said it was no problem. They believed in Su Liang and thought it was a good thing. Yuan Pei naturally had no objections.

Thus, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Lian Shan, who was the first to be drugged and lost her memory, took the antidote made by Su Liang and Gu Ling.

“Do you have a headache?” Su Liang sat beside Lian Shan, checking her condition.

“A little,” Lian Shan frowned, her face slightly pale.

Su Liang took Lian Shan’s pulse, told her not to be nervous, close her eyes, relax her body, and not think about anything.

After a while, Lian Shan opened her eyes, her face full of joy, “I remember everything! Everything!” But before she could finish her sentence, she fainted.

Father Lin, Mother Lin, and Yuan Pei all became nervous. Su Liang held Lian Shan as she took her pulse, and then had Weng Ming check her. They both thought she was fine, perhaps just a big shock from the memory returning, and she just needed a little time to recover.

After watching over Lian Shan for about an hour, she finally woke up slowly.

“How do you feel?” Su Liang asked softly.

Lian Shan opened her eyes and saw Su Liang, but her expression was somewhat confused and slightly nervous, “Who are you… What do you want?”

Su Liang’s heart sank: What’s going on? Could it be that the antidote not only didn’t work, but also caused Shan to lose her memory again?

Madam Lin quickly asked, “Shan’er, do you still recognize your mother?”

“Mother… Where are we?” Lian Shan saw Father Lin, Mother Lin, and Yuan Pei, it was clear that she recognized them all, “Where is my elder brother? He needs to be told right away that Che Yun is a bad person! All the people in the Che family are spies!”

Yuan Pei frowned, “So Shan only recovered her memory before the memory loss, but forgot everything that happened afterward?” Otherwise, she wouldn’t have woken up saying such things and not recognizing Su Liang.

Upon further investigation, Su Liang found that Lian Shan had indeed recovered her memory, but she could not remember anything that had happened in the past year or so.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t expect this to happen.” Su Liang sighed repeatedly.

Father Lin and Mother Lin both reassured her that it was nothing, and compared to the memories of the past sixteen years, the events of the past year or so were trivial.

Su Liang knew they were sincere and wouldn’t blame her, but when she looked at Yuan Pei, who was frowning, she didn’t know what to say. Because it was during Lian Shan’s memory loss before that she was with Che Yun and broke off her engagement with Yuan Pei. Over the past year or so, Yuan Pei and Lian Shan had truly confirmed their feelings and were already engaged, just waiting to get married.

Yuan Pei smiled wryly, rubbing his forehead, “Don’t worry about me, I’m fine…” The twists and turns he’d experienced with Lian Shan had made his emotions quite complicated.

After taking her pulse for a second time, Wen Ming pulled Su Liang aside. “She has just taken the antidote, perhaps she hasn’t fully recovered yet.”

Su Liang pondered, “Master means…”

“Normally, her memory loss shouldn’t have occurred, but the brain is unpredictable,” Wen Ming sighed slightly.

“Maybe her memory will gradually recover?” Su Liang thought to herself. “We can’t tell for now, we can only wait and see.” Or it may not recover at all.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published on n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m

Su Liang asked Lian Shan if her head hurt again, and Lian Shan said it was just a bit hazy.

Madam Lin had already told Lian Shan that all her concerns had passed and everything is well with their family.

Su Liang gave her a calming medicine and told her to have a good rest. They would talk again when she wakes up.

“It’s really fine, don’t feel guilty. This is a good outcome,” Madam Lin comforted Su Liang. “The fact that you’ve made an antidote is already impressive, and your amnesic master’s memory can be restored. I know you’re busy, go deal with your work. When Shan’er wakes up, we will properly talk with her about the recent changes.”

“Alright, we’ll be leaving now.” Su Liang looked at Yuan Pei, “If Lian Shan feels unwell when she wakes up, or if she remembers things, inform me immediately.”

Yuan Pei seemed calmer, slightly nodding. “No problem.” Upon seeing Gu Xiaonuan looking at him, he showed a gentle smile and waved at Gu Xiaonuan.

In the carriage heading back, Su Liang couldn’t help but knock her head against the carriage wall, but Gu Ling caught her. “Don’t overthink it, it was a success.”

“But not a complete success,” Su Liang scratched her head, regretting not testing the antidote adequately on Nian Ruxue. However, the outcome was the same regardless of who tested it.

Wen Ming pondered, “The antidote itself is not wrong, but whether it can be further improved, I need to think about it. Even if we change it, we can’t ask that miss to try it again, it won’t be good for her.”

“Yes, that’s the best we can do for Lian Shan,” Su Liang sighed subtly. She felt sorry, not because she felt she owed Lian Shan, as the Lin’s family members accepted the outcome and it wasn’t a bad thing for Lian Shan, but it was a bit awkward for Yuan Pei. The main reason was, Su Liang originally planned for Lian Shan to be a guinea pig, not developing the antidote for her specifically, but for the likely future use by Bai and Yuan Ying. Therefore, Su Liang thought she owed Lian Shan for using her as a guinea pig without the expected result.

But with the current antidote, for Yuan Ying and Bai, it would work as intended and not have the problem Lian Shan faced. After all, they were saved not long ago, and there were no significant events in between.

On the way, Qi Yan suddenly said, “Master, Young Master Cheng Yun is coming.”

Cheng Yun arrived on horseback. Dismounting, he greeted Su Liang and Gu Ling with a solemn face, “I just received news that something has happened in Jiaye City.” He handed them Lian Shun’s letter.

The carriage stopped on the side of the road, as Gu Ling and Su Liang read the letter. Lian Shun wrote that people from Xingluo Island had sneaked into Jiaye City and kidnapped three children.

“Something did happen after all,” Su Liang recalled Gu Ling’s worries.

Gu Ling remained calm, “We don’t know the outcome yet, don’t worry too much. We should soon have more updates.” Regardless of the situation, they had to wait until the results were known before deciding their next move.

Upon returning to Su Mansion, Wen Ming went to think about how to improve the antidote.

Su Liang and Gu Ling had prepared two antidotes the previous night and used both. They planned to make a few more and send them to Yuan Ying and Bai in Jiaye City before obtaining new information about the city.

Suddenly, it was evening, and Su Liang and Gu Ling had prepared the antidote. Wen Ming had locked himself in his room to think, asking not to be disturbed.

Dinner was prepared by Weng Ran and Qiuyue together. They had tasted the dishes cooked by Gu Ling and Su Liang and wanted to show their own culinary skills. Although Weng Ran claimed her cooking was average yesterday, it was actually quite good.

Upon receiving Su Liang’s praise, Weng Ran was very happy, “I don’t know much, I still have a lot to learn.” As Weng Ming’s granddaughter, of course she knew medical skills. Perhaps she was not as good as Su Liang, but among her peers, she was definitely one of the best. She just didn’t have much experience in practicing medicine.

Weng Ming did not come to Yuanming Pavilion for dinner, so Su Liang sent it to him instead.

“Master, don’t think too much, relax and take a good rest, maybe inspiration will come,” Su Liang said. “The current antidote can meet our immediate needs. And in the future, if our people are drugged and lose their memories, they can quickly take the antidote without experiencing the problem Lian Shan had.”

“We can only settle for this for now.” Weng Ming felt that the antidote was not perfect, failing to meet Su Liang and Gu Ling’s trust in him. After all, this was the first favor he had done for Su Liang since he took her as his disciple. But in reality, he was overthinking it.

Close to midnight, Su Liang and Gu Ling finally received news from Jiaye City. They had not slept and waited for it all along.

Gu Ling read it and handed it to Su Liang. After seeing that it was a safe situation, she sighed with relief, “That’s great, Lian Ershan is still very smart. This crisis is resolved, and now, it’ll be much more difficult for the people on Xingluo Island to come ashore or leave.”

At the end of the letter, Lian Shun wrote about his confession to Ying Ying, and every word seemed to be filled with his joy.

Su Liang was happy for Lian Shun and Ying Ying. She always believed that they were born to be together, and it was only natural for them to end up together.

However, after reading the letter, Su Liang realized something awkward: they would soon send the antidote to Ying Ying and Lao Bai in Jiaye City. Ying Ying would definitely want to take the antidote if she had the chance to regain her memory. And just like Lian Shan, she would forget Lian Shun’s wonderful confession…

Su Liang could imagine how furious Lian Shun would be when he found out. Of course, he would support Ying Ying in taking the antidote, but he would certainly be frustrated, just like Yuan Pei was today.

“This is good news for Qiao Jing.” Gu Ling said calmly.

Su Liang coughed lightly, “Well, I can imagine how Lian Ershan shows off his successful confession in front of Qiao Jing, seizing every opportunity to flaunt their love. There is no choice but to add some novelty to his love life.”

“Tomorrow morning, let Cheng Yun take the antidote to Jiaye City and stay there to help.” Gu Ling said. The capital was also important. Sheng Yue was not trapped on the island, so he might come back to kill at any time. Therefore, Gu Ling could not leave his home without an emergency.

Su Liang nodded, “That’s fine. Cheng Yun is not weak. If Master regains his memory, let him come back home. He needs to be comforted by Gu Xiaonuan to heal.”

The next day, Cheng Yun agreed to go to Jiaye City without hesitation.

Su Liang gave Cheng Yun a wig and a hat, saying they were for warmth, wind protection, and disguise. His current short haircut was very handsome but too eye-catching.

Cheng Yun put on the wig and felt strange.

Su Liang asked Gu Xiaonuan, “Does your uncle look good?”

“Like a flower!” Gu Xiaonuan had her own unique answer to the question.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yun smiled and hugged Gu Xiaonuan, speaking to her with a serious expression, “Uncle is going to the south. When you grow up, I’ll take you out with me.”

Gu Xiaonuan couldn’t understand and rubbed Cheng Yun’s face with her little hand, “Uncle!”

In the meantime, Yuan Pei came to report his safety. He said that Lian Shan woke up today without any discomfort. Unfortunately, her memories before her amnesia were confirmed to have returned, but her memories of the past year were truly gone.

Yuan Pei believed that this was not a bad thing, as Lian Shan had once forgotten their childhood relationship and memories, but now recalled them. They would have no more issues, and he was confident of that.

Cheng Yun reluctantly said goodbye to Gu Xiaonuan, then secretly visited Wan Family to bid farewell to Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu. Finally, he left the capital and headed south to Jiaye City. In addition to the antidote, he also brought a letter from Gu Ling to Lian Shun, with a sentence: Good job with the confession, rewarded with another chance to do it again.
