Chapter 143 The longer it's delayed, the more the skin ulcerates.
Qin Yulian's exclamation attracted the attention of many people.
Jiang Yonghe had regained some consciousness. She quickly touched her face, as if she had been startled, and exclaimed "Ah!" before shaking her hand away.
Why does her face feel so bad to the touch...?
Even without looking in the mirror, her face used to feel incredibly smooth and delicate, but just now, the sensation in her palm felt like touching a pig's head.
"My God, if I didn't know she was Jiang Yonghe, I wouldn't recognize her at all. How did her face get so swollen?"
"It must be due to toxicity."
"I don't know if the swelling will go down. Will it stay like this forever? That would be disgusting."
Hearing the comments about her appearance, Jiang Yonghe panicked. She quickly said to Qin Yulian, "Mom, give me a mirror..."
Qin Yulian frowned, a hint of disdain in her eyes, "...Yonghe, you'd better not look at it yet, I'm afraid you'll be scared of your current appearance."
Jiang Yonghe's heart skipped a beat. Just how badly did her face look?
The authoritative doctor glanced at Jiang Yonghe and replied to Qin Yulian, "There's nothing I can do. Your daughter's poisoning is too severe, and the treatment wasn't timely enough. The poison has already spread to her head. Although I've done my best to treat her and detoxify, my medical skills are ultimately no match for Miss Jiang Youli's. Therefore, the residual poison will cause her some serious aftereffects. Swelling in her feet is only one of them. She may also experience intermittent numbness in her legs. We'll need to observe her closely for any further aftereffects."
Qin Yulian quickly asked, "Doctor, will the swelling in my daughter's face go down?"
The authoritative doctor spoke frankly: "The swelling will subside once the remaining toxins in the body are eliminated. As long as the toxins remain in the body, there is no way to return to the previous state."
Qin Yulian staggered a couple of times, but after regaining her composure, she quickly said, "Doctor, is there any way you can help my daughter completely expel the remaining toxins?"
The authoritative doctor replied solemnly, "The poison is spreading in the blood. To completely eliminate it, we might try a full blood transfusion."
Before Qin Yulian could speak, Jiang Yonghe immediately said urgently, "Mom, I need a blood transfusion..."
She absolutely couldn't stand having such an ugly face! It would be worse than death for her!
The authoritative doctor said, "A full blood exchange is not a routine medical procedure. It is used in medicine for specific treatment purposes, such as severe poisoning, certain autoimmune diseases, or blood diseases. In your daughter's case, the personal costs could be very high, and a sufficient amount of blood would be needed for the exchange."
Qin Yulian quickly replied, "Money is not a problem, we'll find a way to get blood!"
“In Jiang Yonghe’s case, a full blood transfusion won’t help. The toxins not only remain in her blood but have also seeped into her skin tissue. The longer it’s left untreated, the more her skin will ulcerate.” Jiang Youli pushed Qi Huan, who was sitting in a wheelchair, slowly toward Jiang Yonghe, stating this fact in an exaggerated tone.
The thought of her skin ulcerated made Jiang Yonghe tremble with fear. She bit her lip and shook her head violently, "No, I don't want to become like that! I don't want to become an ugly monster!"
As she spoke, her gaze met Qi Huan's beautiful eyes, and she seemed to see her own ugliness reflected in his dark pupils. Jiang Yonghe quickly covered her face and pleaded, "Brother Qi Huan, don't look at me..."
Qi Huan merely glanced at her indifferently before looking away, his expression completely unchanging. He didn't care about Jiang Yonghe's face at all; he wouldn't even bother to look at her twice when she was beautiful, let alone now that she was so swollen and red.
In her panic and helplessness, Jiang Yonghe suddenly remembered something, looked up at Jiang Youli, and pleaded desperately, "Jiang Youli, can you help me detoxify...please..."
Jiang Youli said with a regretful tone, "Originally, when I gave you a chance, it would have been in time to detoxify you, but unfortunately you didn't seize that opportunity."
Jiang Yonghe's eyes were filled with despair. How could she have known back then that she might be disfigured!
Seeing Jiang Yonghe's thunderstruck expression, Jiang Youli pushed Qi Huan towards the stage with satisfaction.
Qi Huan asked, "Little Li'er, I'm curious, was Jiang Yonghe bitten just a coincidence or something else?"
“I did it.” Jiang Youli answered Qi Huan without hesitation. “I controlled that scorpion to bite Jiang Yonghe. How could I possibly let such a great opportunity pass me by?”
really.
Qi Huan's eyes held a knowing smile, "It's a pity we didn't manage to get her to confess to harming you."
Jiang Youli chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter. Knowing that she is going to be disfigured will probably make Jiang Yonghe regret it for the rest of her life. Every day after that, she will think that she should have just confessed. That would be the real ultimate torture for her."
After Jiang Youli and Qi Huan left, looking at her adopted daughter Jiang Yonghe's unbearable face, Qin Yulian suppressed her nausea and comforted her, saying, "Yonghe, don't panic. Jiang Youli's words may not be reliable. Let's go to the hospital to try a blood transfusion!"
Jiang Yonghe nodded weakly, her eyes filled with tears, "...Okay."
Jiang Yonghe used to cry with such tenderness and pitifulness, but now, with her face swollen like a pig's head, her crying only seems pretentious.
Those young men who had initially shown some affection for Jiang Yonghe nearly vomited.
"Just looking at it for a second feels like an eyesore. Let's go, let's not look anymore."
"If even a blood transfusion won't help, with her current face, she's completely ruined."
"Heh, isn't it all his own fault? Blame Jiang Xing for insisting on pulling this stunt with that good-for-nothing Qi Yue to frame Jiang Youli."
The other onlookers also dispersed one by one and returned to their seats.
Jiang Yonghe could no longer bear the disdainful looks from these people and said urgently, "Mom... let's go to the hospital right now, okay!"
Qin Yulian was also anxious to get Jiang Xing to the hospital, so she nodded, "Okay, let's go to the hospital now."
Although the disturbance caused by poisonous insects and snakes was significant, thanks to the timely handling and excellent evacuation and protection efforts by the Qi family patriarch and Qi Huan, the engagement banquet venue remained largely clean and tidy.
On stage, Qi Huan apologized to the guests below the stage: "I am very sorry that the distinguished guests who attended my engagement banquet with Xiao Li'er tonight were frightened. I also thank you all for staying to continue to witness our engagement ceremony."
After saying that, he took out a beautifully crafted ring box from his pocket and opened it reverently in front of Jiang Youli, his dark eyes filled with intense love.
"Little Li'er, meeting you during the most despairing time of my life is the greatest luck of my life. Before meeting you, I didn't understand what love was. After meeting you, I believe in love at first sight. Today, in front of so many witnesses, I want to give myself to you. Will you accept me?"
