Tang Shijun firmly believed in Gu Qingluan. “When Qingluan said there’s hope, then there must be hope!”

Beside her, Tang Shijiao flushed with frustration. “How could you believe her? How can someone who has stopped breathing be saved?”

She stepped forward, intending to stop Gu Qingluan from approaching Tang Shiqi.

She didn’t want her to tamper with Tang Shiqi’s body now that her elder sister had passed away.

Tang Shijun quickly grabbed her, saying, “Second sister, don’t make a scene! Our elder sister is in such a state, can’t you let Qingluan try? 1 trust Qingluan won’t joke with us. If your interference costs our elder sister a chance at survival, can you bear that responsibility?”

The head of the Tang family and Madam Tang nodded in agreement. “Jiaojiao, don’t create chaos. Let Miss Gu take a look.”

As long as there was a glimmer of hope, they were unwilling to give up.

Tang Shijiao shot them an angry glance. “You all…”

She stamped her foot and brushed off Tang Shijun’s hand, running out.

The remaining three people stood not far away, nervously watching Gu Qingluan.

Gu Qingluan was currently using golden needles for treatment.

Tang Shiqi had indeed stopped breathing, but her brain was still active.

This situation occurred because Tang Shiqi had been poisoned, and the poison had attacked her heart, affecting blood circulation, which led to her ceasing to breathe.

Without prompt treatment, brain death would soon follow.

What Gu Qingluan needed to do now was to repair Tang Shiqi’s internal organs and suppress the poison within her.

Since Tang Shiqi had stopped breathing, Gu Qingluan had to accomplish these two tasks in an extremely short time.

She used her maximum speed, rapidly inserting and withdrawing needles while simultaneously neutralizing the poison and repairing the damaged internal organs.

The Primordial Gold Needle alone wasn’t sufficient to repair the heart, so Gu Qingluan tapped into the Hongmeng Qi.

With the assistance of Hongmeng Qi, the damage to Tang Shiqi’s heart visibly began to heal at an astonishing speed.

After approximately the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Tang Shiqi’s heart began to beat again.

Gu Qingluan exhaled deeply, a drop of sweat rolling down her forehead.

During that critical moment, she didn’t dare to blink even once.

Tang Shijun and the other two couldn’t help but ask in unison when they saw her change in expression, “Miss Gu I Qingluan, is Qiqi / our elder sister saved?”

Gu Qingluan smiled slightly and said, “See for yourselves.”

The three of them looked at Tang Shiqi and were pleasantly surprised to notice her chest gently rising and falling.

Madam Tang couldn’t hold back her voice and asked, “You., you really saved her?”

Tang Shijun happily exclaimed, “Big sister’s heart is beating, she’s definitely come back to life!”

Madam Tang burst into tears of joy, covering her mouth to avoid disturbing her eldest daughter.

Patriarch Tang also looked excited, but as the head of the family, he managed to restrain his emotions. He gazed at Gu Qingluan with gratitude and said, “Miss Gu, we are immensely grateful to you! From now on, you are the great benefactor of our Tang family! Whenever you encounter difficulties, feel free to come to me.”

“Let’s not celebrate too soon. While I’ve brought her back to life, the poison inside IVLiss Tang hasn’t been cured yet.”

The three of them were momentarily stunned.

Tang Shijun’s expression changed suddenly, and she asked, “Poison? What poison?”

“Didn’t Qiqi fall ill?” Both Patriarch Tang and his wife asked in unison.

After the earlier diagnosis by the imperial physician, there had been no mention of poisoning.

Gu Qingluan wasn’t surprised by their confusion.

After all, Tang Shiqi had been slowly poisoned over time with a chronic toxin that was difficult to detect. Her body had gradually deteriorated, and the symptoms had been mistaken for an illness.

As Gu Qingluan started to explain, an angry voice came from outside the room, “Nonsense!”
