Chapter 1118: Chapter 1118: I’ll Tell You a Secret

Han Jing and Xiaoqi ran into Ning Shiqi and the others who hadn’t managed to solve the problem yet when they arrived in the city.

The method to detoxify was there, the medicinal lead was there too; however, the current issue is that unless the poisoned person touches the water again, only then can the poison be countered for detoxification.

Coincidentally, it started snowing heavily, and the entire city was in a frenzy.

Everyone said this was the first snow they’ve seen in their lives. Shuiqi Island never experiences snow.

If this snow continues, I wonder if the river will freeze.

If so, many people may temporarily be unable to detoxify.

Ning Xu is already dead. If the poison isn’t neutralized soon, although it won’t cause any unexpected incidents, it may stir fear among the city’s people.

So upon seeing Han Jing, Ning Shiqi came up with an idea.

"Jing’er, I was just about to seek your help. Could you find a way to scatter the detoxifying water across the city during this snowfall?" Ning Shiqi asked.

Han Jing blinked and instantly understood his intention.

"No problem." As soon as Han Jing spoke, she looked around and found a secluded spot where no one could see her, gathered the river water into her palm, and turned it into snowflakes that flew into the air, intertwining with the cascading snow.

It took a full hour before Han Jing sighed with relief, "It should be about done. If there are still a few people who haven’t been detoxified, when their poison surfaces tomorrow, you can play doctor in the city and detoxify them."

Ning Shiqi chuckled, "Alright. Where are you headed?"

Han Jing held onto Xiaoqi, "We’re going to the Island Master Mansion; you all head back first!"

After saying goodbye to Ning Shiqi and the others, Han Jing and Xiaoqi headed to the Island Master Mansion. On the way, Xiaoqi giggled and said to Han Jing, "Sister Jing, I want to tell you a secret, is that okay?"

"What secret?" Han Jing asked.

"Well..." Xiaoqi blinked at Han Jing, "Shiqi likes you!"

Han Jing didn’t respond and after a while, she replied, "I know."

"What?" Xiaoqi’s eyes nearly popped out, "How do you know? I’ve seen him being so careful to hide it, not to mention how well he gets along with Su Yu and you all. I thought..."

"You thought Su Yu and I couldn’t tell?" Han Jing teasingly poked Xiaoqi’s forehead, "That’s why they say, children don’t understand adult matters."

Xiaoqi sulked, "Who’s a child? How could I not understand? Then tell me, how did you find out?"

Han Jing sighed, "Just like you, by looking into the eyes!"

Xiaoqi asked mysteriously, "Honestly, do you also know Mind Reading Technique?"

"Don’t be silly!" Han Jing rolled her eyes at her, "When you like someone, just by looking at their eyes you can know. Everything else can be disguised, but the eyes won’t lie. Even the most guarded person will unconsciously show emotions when facing someone they like. It’s just about whether that person can see it."

Xiaoqi...

"That sounds so simple, yet somewhat complex? Aren’t you worried Su Yu will be jealous?"

Han Jing grinned toothily, "Not worried at all. Why should I worry about him being jealous? We both clearly understand the significance we hold for each other, so I’m not worried at all and he wouldn’t truly be worried either."
