Chapter 1501: Chapter 838: How Long Does the Antidote Take to Work_2
“Uncle, why aren’t you taking it?”
Everyone was stunned.
The little girl was now looking at the bald man.
The bald man, slightly overwhelmed by the attention, pointed to himself and couldn’t help asking.
“Are you letting me take it?”
“Of course.”
“You’re actually giving me candy?”
“This candy was also given by uncle, so uncle should also have one.” The little girl’s eyes were bright.
Her voice was milky and tender.
There was no sign of fear at all.
So the little girl had gotten over her fear.
Seeing this, the bald man was completely overwhelmed by the affection.
He also showed an extremely brilliant smile, then couldn’t resist speaking up.
“I didn’t expect you were actually giving it to me, I thought you were giving it to this uncle. Even though you didn’t say anything just now,”
“I thought you were unwilling to forgive uncle. From the moment you took out the candy, this initiative proves that you have forgiven uncle.”
“You really are a kind-hearted little girl, from now on uncle will definitely not scare you anymore, will definitely spoil you unconditionally, you are really too kind-hearted.”
The bald man was now very excited.
His face was wrapped in an excited expression.
He even glanced at Qin Yuan subconsciously.
He wouldn’t be angry, would he?
After all, he just thought the candy was for him.
But it wasn’t.
If he’s angry, wouldn’t that be somewhat inappropriate?
Would their relationship be affected?
So the bald man started to worry.
Now, the people around all felt extremely taken aback and surprised.
Even Yuanqing herself was very astonished.
She slightly widened her eyes, not yet recovered from the shock.
It was clear that her daughter was not scared at all.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have actively taken out the candy, let alone give it to the bald man.
Who would have thought that the bald man’s approach was so effective, it managed to help the daughter walk out of fear all at once.
That was really great, no need to worry about her daughter living in the shadow anymore.
A smile also appeared on Yuanqing’s face.
“She’s giving you candy, why aren’t you taking it? Are you so happy that you don’t know how to accept it?”
After all, the bald man really hadn’t taken the candy yet.
He was still standing there, stunned.
But his face was wearing a smile.
He seemed completely overwhelmed.
Qin Yuan was also somewhat surprised.
He thought the candy was for him.
But it turned out to be for the bald man.
It seems that things have indeed changed.
But the audience around couldn’t help but start talking.
“I didn’t expect the little girl to give the candy to the bald man, it seems she really walked out of the shadows.”
“This I didn’t anticipate, I thought it was for Ling Yu, this really caught me off guard.”
“The bald man must be feeling overwhelmed right now.”
“Certainly overwhelmed, after all, something he thought would not happen has occurred.”
“Right, if it were me, I would feel overwhelmed too.”
They spoke seriously.
But their voices were neither loud nor soft.
Enough for everyone present to hear them.
The bald man also heard these words, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
Then he scanned the audience with a calm gaze.
Again, he slightly raised his eyebrows, his face full of bright smiles.
“I would definitely be happy to be forgiven, you all must not have expected that I would be forgiven. Hearing you guys talk like that, I am somewhat displeased.”
“After all, it’s as if in your eyes I seem unworthy of forgiveness; anyway, now it’s like a slap in your faces.”
“I’ve been forgiven, and I feel very happy about it, I even get to eat candy, something you can hardly be envious of.”
With that said, the bald man appeared even more smug.
His expression was persistently cheerful.
The audience around, upon hearing this, had their lips twitching fiercely.
They felt an immense shock, and some were speechless; they couldn’t believe all it took was a few words from them.
For the bald man to be this confident, it shouldn’t have come to this.
But these words really do sting.
They still don’t like to hear them.
At this moment, the bald man took the candy back.
“Thank you, little girl.”
“You’re welcome, Uncle. It should be me thanking you,” the girl politely replied.
Everyone thought the little girl was very polite indeed.
They couldn’t stop praising the little girl.
Even the bald man thought so.
A while later, a faint smile appeared on Qin Yuan’s face.
He slightly curved the corners of his mouth.
“So, can you go back to eating candy now?”
“Okay, Uncle.”
After saying this, the girl bounced back to her seat.
Only they remained on the spot.
Qin Yuan glanced at the bald man.
“Not bad, your action just now has received good approval.”
“Big brother, I really didn’t expect to be approved one day.”
Previously, I never imagined such a day would come, and now I am indeed quite surprised.
It’s more like a flattering surprise.
I feel extremely happy.
It’s impossible to express this moment’s happiness in simple words.
At this moment, the bald man was still laughing with a big grin.
Qin Yuan was somewhat helpless and immediately averted his eyes.
He then gave Ling Yu a quick glance.
“Okay, now it’s Brother Shan’s turn.”
“Alright.”
Next it was Brother Shan’s turn to sit down and play chess.
Several games had been played already.
But they didn’t feel any symptoms.
Quite a lot of time had passed.
Why haven’t any symptoms appeared yet?
And Yuanqing didn’t specify an exact time at the beginning; what’s really going on here?
Could it be that Yuanqing has been deceiving us all along?
That shouldn’t be the case, if it was a deceit, the consequences would be grave.
They were continually casting their gazes upon Yuanqing, yet quickly retracting them, always hesitating to speak.
Yuanqing had already noticed their stares, watched them for a moment, and couldn’t hold back from saying something.
“Do you have something you want to ask? If so, just ask it outright, don’t just stare at me. How can you get an answer without asking?”
They definitely had something they wanted to ask, they just hadn’t voiced it.
What’s the use of just watching here? Better to just ask.
I really don’t understand what they are thinking, but according to my guess, it must be about the antidote.
At this moment, Yuanqing slightly narrowed his eyes.
And then patiently waited.
After a good while, Ling Yu spoke up directly.
“Actually, I would like to ask, do you not know when the antidote will take effect? You don’t know the specific time?”
“Why were you so evasive when I asked you earlier? So much time has passed now, and yet there has been no effect.”
“We chose to wait, but it’s really been too long. I thought about asking you again, to see if there might be any other possibilities.”
Ling Yu hadn’t asked at the beginning.
It was always the bald man who asked.
And the bald man did voice his doubts.
But now I’m truly puzzled.
So I really can’t hold back.
I have to ask no matter what.
Hearing this, Yuanqing’s eyes instantly narrowed slightly.
But silence had already spread between them, no one spoke.
After a while, Qin Yuan couldn’t help but look up at Yuanqing.
But quickly he looked away; after all, he couldn’t answer too many questions.
Moreover, he hasn’t been involved yet. Once he is involved,
perhaps things will only become more complicated, so he chose not to speak just yet.
Next, let’s see how Yuanqing would respond.
But Yuanqing’s expression became very calm, with no sign of panic at all.
Even his eyebrows lifted slightly, then he spoke with heartfelt emphasis.
“Ling Yu, it seems you were really playing chess seriously just now. I’ve already answered the bald man, yet you asked again.”
