After Li Ji finished his noodles, he waited and waited, but Hua Manman didn't return.
He noticed his physical condition had improved significantly; he could even stand steady without anyone's help.
So he got up and walked out. A look inside the small kitchen revealed it was already completely empty, without a soul in sight.
Li Ji then questioned the guards on patrol, but he still couldn't get any news of Hua Manman.
What he found even stranger was that after walking such a long way, his breathing remained steady, and he felt no discomfort at all.
It was as if he had never been poisoned.
'But how is that possible?'
Even the Chief Imperial Doctor had said he was deeply poisoned and his life was in grave danger. It couldn't have been a misdiagnosis.
Li Ji thought it over and soon his mind went to the bowl of Yangchun Noodles that Hua Manman had someone deliver.
Hua Manman was hiding many secrets.
For example, that expert named System.
