Bai Xiaozhou

Chapter 38 Recording Paused

Shi Xinxin had walked over to Long Keyu at some point, speaking calmly to Yang Xi.

The usual gentleness was gone from her face, which looked serious, yet inexplicably reassuring.

Now they all knew Shi Xinxin was a double major graduate from Yangjin University.

Even a doctor called in temporarily might not be as competent as her.

"Shi..." Yang Xi wanted to ask what to do about the snake wrapped around her.

The snake was quite long, and after biting Yang Xi's leg, it coiled around her arm, its head extending forward.

Its forked tongue flicked continuously, provocatively staring at the two people standing outside the door, refusing to leave, as if ready to bite again if they made any move.

Shi Xinxin wasn't afraid of it; she had dealt with countless snakes on the mountain with her senior brother while gathering herbs.

She had even taught Shi Xiaojie how to raise snakes, and Shi Xiaojie still kept a non-venomous little green snake.

"Do you trust me?" Shi Xinxin took out a tranquilizer dart from her bag, staring into Yang Xi's eyes.

"I do!" Yang Xi's response was unexpectedly firm.

Shi Xinxin nodded, flipped her hand, and with a flick of her finger, the silver needle flashed a chilling silver light in the air, "swooshing" into the snake's thick body.

It didn't harm Yang Xi at all.

After a short while, Yang Xi felt the thing wrapped around her arm lose its strength and fall limply to the ground.

The tight string in her head snapped the moment the snake hit the ground, and her vision went black as she fainted.

"Believing others so easily will get you deceived one day."

Shi Xinxin hurried forward to support her, and the last thing Yang Xi heard consciously was this sentence.

Clutching Shi Xinxin's arm, she fell into a deep sleep.

Shi Xinxin's face darkened completely at this moment.

This was no common rat snake; it was a highly venomous cobra.

Even rushing to the hospital immediately might not solve the problem.

The medicine in her first-aid kit could only provide strong inhibition, and while she could save Yang Xi, she needed to get her medical box quickly.

"Is Director Fang here? I need his helicopter."

Long Keyu wanted to ask something else; wasn't that just a rat snake?

"This is not a rat snake. I told her that earlier only to relax her guard."

"This cobra is extremely venomous, and my medical kit can only inhibit the spread of the poison."

Shi Xinxin's face was cold, and as she seemed to recall something, her expression grew even more somber.

"What's going on?" Director Fang arrived, thinking the situation was mostly under control, but seeing Shi Xinxin's grim expression.

"She was bitten and is severely poisoned," Shi Xinxin said, with no time for explanations.

"I need Director Fang's helicopter."

Director Fang acknowledged, sensing the seriousness of the situation. Soon, Shi Xinxin left with Yang Xi.

The faces of those who rushed over were also grim. Who would have thought such a safety hazard could appear at the resort?

Fang Qi immediately ordered the news to be contained, but thinking of the staff members brought over earlier, he figured the news would likely spread.

He frowned and contacted the resort's main creative team.

Now, his well-planned program, just after one day of filming, was going to be suspended.

He didn't know if there would be a chance to continue filming, and he hoped that Shi Xinxin would pull through.

Shi Xinxin had already retrieved her phone. The Haojue Club would inevitably be monitored by cameras, and the hospital would be too crowded and unsafe for Yang Xi.

Her own house hadn't been approved yet, so she had to borrow Sheng Chenjin's club.

"Sheng Chenjin, I need to borrow a place to save someone."

"I'll explain the details later."

Fearing his refusal, Shi Xinxin thought that if he refused, she would have to make do at the company.

"Okay, come directly to the Sheng family. Be careful."

Sheng Chenjin replied readily.

"Thank you."

Shi Xinxin hung up the phone and contacted her assistant, asking her to send the medical box to the Sheng family to meet her.

She hung up the phone and relaxed, the sleepiness not very pronounced.

Her brain was still in a tense working state.

It had been a long time since she had a mission at such a late hour.

This time, it was not just a little bit peculiar. Firstly, the habitat of a cobra was definitely not in a resort.

Also, a cobra had no motive to bite Yang Xi unless provoked or specifically attacking someone.

According to Long Keyu, Yang Xi had called out only after discovering the snake.

Having experienced a murder case, Shi Xinxin couldn't help but become suspicious.

The bathroom windows of rooms three and four were very close. Shi Xinxin had also offended many people before.

In this light, it was those people's carelessness. Even if they wanted to scare her, they didn't need to use Yang Xi as a target.

Shi Xinxin looked at the little girl who had unknowingly taken a blow for her, sighing inwardly.

At this moment, Shi Xinxin was calculating the dosage of medicine she would need.

To shorten the circulation time of the blood, she had already applied pressure to stop bleeding at the wound, but it probably wouldn't be of much use.

Soon, the helicopter arrived at the Sheng family's residence. Shi Xinxin descended with Yang Xi in her arms, and Sheng Chenjin was waiting for her.

She didn't notice Sheng Chenjin's expression darken considerably when he saw Yang Xi in her arms.

"The room is prepared for you, and your medical box is inside. Do you need anything else?"

Sheng Chenjin followed Shi Xinxin, speaking as they walked.

"Not for now." Shi Xinxin closed the door as soon as she entered the room.

She quickly got into her zone.

This time, it had cost her quite a bit of medicine.

...

The news of Yang Xi being secretly taken away immediately spread online.

The official "Come Play" program also issued a notice to suspend filming.

All sorts of speculations were circulating.

[They're suspending filming after just one day?]

[What happened to my sister Yang? Why did Sister Shi take her away?]

[Going to the hospital would definitely have an impact. It's unknown how we found out.]

[Don't go to the hospital, don't go to public places, don't be discovered by those with ulterior motives. Please bless her!]

[Nothing like this has ever happened at the resort before? Is this their security?]

[We need an explanation! Even if Shi Xinxin is a medical student, how can she practice without authoritative clinical experience?]

This last comment was pushed to the top.

Sheng Chenjin, with nothing else to do, was coldly watching the situation unfold, but when he saw people causing trouble for Shi Xinxin, he couldn't hold back.

His assistant, seeing that something was amiss, immediately handed him Shi Xinxin's practicing license and the certificate from the First People's Hospital's authoritative academician.

Sheng Chenjin glanced at him, as if asking.

Sheng Chenjin: Why do you have what I don't have?

"Miss Shi gave them to me just now. She said she's not practicing medicine illegally," Bai Feng quickly explained.

Sheng Chenjin's expression improved slightly.

He picked up his phone and took a photo.

He felt no qualm about posting on Weibo with his identity.

Sheng Chenjin: She's very busy. Don't provoke her.
