Transmigrated as the Betrothed of the Yandere Villain

Chapter 10

She followed the regulations. Since the patient voluntarily requested the development of a tranquilizer, there was no reason to refuse. As for the patient’s emotional issues, the hospital didn’t concern itself with that.

It didn’t take long before the lab results came out. Upon seeing the indicators on the report, Qi Wan’s expression eased considerably.

She had long memorized the previous data. Not a single index had ever fallen within the standard range. Although this report wasn’t great either, it was a significant improvement compared to the past.

Qi Wan finally showed a hint of a smile. “The indicators are very good. The effect of the temporary mark is quite remarkable. You’ve experienced it personally, so you should be able to feel the difference. If this can be maintained over the long term, your Pheromone Imbalance Disorder will surely recover smoothly. Your medication can be slightly reduced. Taking too much has never been beneficial to your body.”

“In the next few days, there’s a high probability that your heat cycle will arrive prematurely. Your body will instinctively crave the replenishment of pheromones. But since you have a weak constitution, you still need to exercise some restraint.”

“Lastly, I still need to remind you of a few things…”

“Eat more, sleep more, worry less, get angry less… right?” Xie Shiqing picked up the rest of her sentence, a playful curve to her lips.

Qi Wan remained expressionless. “Since you remember it so clearly, I’m sure you can follow through as well.”

Xie Shiqing immediately shut her mouth and diverted the topic. “Hmm, did you put new flowers in the office? The scent is quite nice.”

Suddenly, the door was pushed open. A pair of long legs stepped inside. The newcomer had sharp brows and thin lips. Only the slightly rounded phoenix eyes softened her otherwise imposing appearance. Combined with the slightly constrained and earnest expression on her face, she unexpectedly exuded a hint of innocent clarity.

If it were in a past life, there was a phrase that could accurately describe Zhong Ning—*the naive foolishness of a university student*.

Although Zhong Ning had already graduated, she had yet been bruised by society, nor did she need to concern herself with the complexities of interpersonal dealings. Because life had been smooth, her innocence hadn’t diminished—it had only grown.

She genuinely didn’t have much scheming or cunning in her.

“I finished my check-up. The report won’t be ready until the afternoon,” she said honestly, like a student reporting homework to a teacher.

Xie Shiqing raised her hand and beckoned, “Come sit over here. I have something to discuss with you.”

Zhong Ning glanced at the doctor sitting behind the desk. The latter didn’t react at all, as if Xie Shiqing were the real owner of this office instead of her.

She sat down and asked curiously, “Is there another test I need to take?”

“No, not that.” Xie Shiqing gathered her black hair and sighed softly. Her voice was gentle and tinged with a trace of pleading. “I have a favor to ask of you.”

Zhong Ning was quite taken aback. She asked seriously, “What is it?”

“Our compatibility rate is 100%. Since we’re going to be married in the future, we’ll need to help each other during our monthly heat cycles.” Xie Shiqing spoke in a tender and delicate tone. “But things in life don’t always go as planned. What if one day you’re busy, or I’m on a business trip? We can’t just tough it out, right?”

“So I was thinking, would you be willing to provide a pheromone sample and serum so the hospital can develop a specialized tranquilizer, just in case?”

She bit her lip and said softly, as if dipped in honey, “I only like your pheromones.”

Off to the side, Qi Wan appeared busy but had diverted most of her attention, listening to her niece spout such blatant nonsense.

The more she listened, the more anxious she felt inside. What kind of lousy excuse was this? Who would believe it?

“Sure, no problem at all.”

Qi Wan: “…”

She actually believed it!

Qi Wan discreetly gave Zhong Ning a once-over.

Had she hit her head in an accident recently and damaged her brain…?

“When can the tranquilizer be developed? Should I give a blood sample now?” Zhong Ning asked eagerly.

In truth, she hadn’t fully understood the whole speech Xie Shiqing had just delivered.

Information about heat cycles was common knowledge—any random person on the street could explain it clearly. Whether alpha or omega, during a heat cycle, one could use suppressants or tranquilizers to get through the period. The former suppressed the effects, while the latter alleviated them using synthetic pheromones. Both worked and didn’t affect daily life.

On the market, suppressants and tranquilizers were inexpensive, essential medical supplies in every household.

There was absolutely no need to develop a specialized tranquilizer.

The reason Xie Shiqing needed it was because her level was too high—she could only use Zhong Ning’s pheromones.

She didn’t want to expose her rank, nor did she want anyone to know about the Pheromone Imbalance Disorder, so she deliberately made up a lie.

But Zhong Ning didn’t know any of that. All she understood was that she needed to provide serum and pheromones to help, and she thought, wasn’t it just drawing blood? How simple.

She used to donate blood every year.

Without a second thought, she agreed right away.

Xie Shiqing chuckled softly, her long lashes fluttering. “Dr. Qi, you can draw the blood now.”

Qi Wan was dumbfounded, her emotions complex.

She dazedly unwrapped a new set of needles, unable to comprehend how the world had changed so quickly.

Was this really the same Zhong Ning who used to speak so brazenly?

Meanwhile, Zhong Ning had already rolled up her sleeve, ready to donate blood, and was still asking the same question as before. “Will the tranquilizer be developed quickly?”

Although she didn’t quite understand everything, upon hearing the words “100% match,” she could roughly guess that her pheromones must be the most effective. This tranquilizer was probably something very important, or else it wouldn’t have been brought up right now.

Since that was the case, then the sooner the better.

Qi Wan replied, “…If all goes well, it’ll take about a month or two.”

“During that time, we might need you to come by a few more times to provide enough pheromones.”

“Sure,” Zhong Ning said. “Let’s add each other as contacts. You can just message me whenever I need to come.”

Too cooperative!

She was simply too cooperative!

In a daze, Qi Wan stored away the drawn tube of blood, then pointed to a nearby door. “Go inside and close the door. Just release your pheromones. There’s a specialized equipment to collect it.”
