Chapter 1500: Chapter 838: How Long Does the Antidote Take to Work
Actually, Qin Yuan said those words on purpose, just to liven up the atmosphere.
Seeing their innocent expressions, Qin Yuan also felt that they indeed didn’t have that intention.
The most important thing for him was to foster a team spirit; even if they had such thoughts, it didn’t matter.
After all, he really had good stamina.
How could it be possible to run out of energy after just a few games of chess? That’s simply impossible.
At this moment, Ling Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Big brother, what are you talking about? We play chess with you because we enjoy it, not because we want to wear you out.”
“We’re just using this way to show you our fondness, after all, we really don’t know any other way to do it.”
“Maybe we are a bit clumsy, so we just use this method. I’m really sorry, big brother.”
He knew that big brother wouldn’t be angry.
He also knew that big brother was just talking.
So he said these words carelessly.
It was also him making a joke here.
Qin Yuan was instantly torn between laughter and tears.
“Alright, then I won’t take it too seriously with you guys.”
After saying this, Qin Yuan and Ling Yu began to play chess again.
The others didn’t speak.
They were all just watching Crescent Moon.
Just when Crescent Moon thought everyone would be quiet, the surrounding spectators couldn’t help but comment.
“I thought the medicine would take effect immediately, but it turns out it still needs time.”
“If one didn’t know better, they might think it wasn’t an antidote at all.”
“Hey, you can’t say that, don’t let them hear you.”
“It’s just speculation anyway, and if they hear it and get angry, doesn’t that just prove we’re right?”
“That does seem to make some sense.”
So Crescent Moon didn’t give any reaction, as if she hadn’t heard these words at all.
She also looked very natural.
After a while, Crescent Moon looked at Baldy and Black Bear without any expression.
“Why are you two still staring at me? Do you think what I said was incorrect, or do you have some thoughts?”
“Everyone can just speak up, after all, I’m looking forward to any reactions from you, and if you ask anything…”
“I’ll answer each question, I can tell you’re quite skeptical, so of course I’ll answer diligently.”
After saying this, Crescent Moon’s eyes became even more serious.
It was as if she was waiting for them to speak.
Seeing her say this, their eyes immediately became serious as well.
But they exchanged glances,
Seemingly undecided about who should speak first.
Eventually, it was Baldy who broke the silence.
“Are you sure the antidote is really as you said, that you didn’t accidentally give us some other medicine?”
Indeed, the wrong medicine had been given to them.
It was a statement that hit home.
But it was impossible to admit it to them.
And the medicine didn’t have any side effects.
Taking it was like eating candy.
So they would never find this out.
In other words, the deception could continue unabated.
Yet Crescent Moon looked very serious, and her tone was extremely sincere.
“Of course, I wouldn’t give you the wrong medicine. What I handed to you was really the antidote, and after all, you’ve been waiting here for a long time.”
“Also, I was seriously searching for the medicine inside; I searched for so long, how could I pick up the wrong one? Although I have more medicines…
“But I’m also very cautious, I wouldn’t make such a low-level mistake, you can be utterly assured.”
After saying this, Crescent Moon’s expression turned even more resolute.
She didn’t seem to be lying.
Baldy was already very skeptical, but after hearing these words…
His skepticism instantly vanished, replaced by a smile.
Then Baldy immediately said,
“Crescent Moon, thank you for really being willing to answer us here. Actually, before you answered I was quite puzzled, but having heard your response…”
“I know you’re not deceiving us here, and that everything you say is true. I’m also willing to trust you here.”
“After all, it’s not my style not to trust you, and I’m not the kind of person who refuses to see reason. If something makes sense, I choose to listen.”
At these words, Crescent Moon felt somewhat taken aback, thinking Baldy would have more questions.
She hadn’t expected him to give in so quickly, which caught her off guard.
The next moment, Baldy spoke again, earnestly,
“Also, thank you for telling me this. Now, I don’t have any doubts left, and there’s nothing else I want to ask. Let’s just wait for the chess game now.”
After speaking, Baldy and Black Bear were again watching them play chess.
And Crescent Moon just stood silently off to the side.
She was actually quite curious about how long it would take for their symptoms to disappear.
Since she had never tried it before, she was waiting for the answer now.
It was at this time that Qin Yuan noticed that the little girl had run out again.
She was holding candy in her hand.
And then she offered the candy to him.
“Uncle, please have another candy.”
Everyone’s gaze uniformly fell on Qin Yuan, since they felt the candy was for him.
Even Qin Yuan thought so himself.
But when the little girl asked a question.
