Today was the third time Ming Liuyi climbed into Yao Zizhou’s bed. This time, she was more used to it. She unhurriedly lifted the silk covers and lay down. In fact, she knew her sleeping habits very well. Even if she went to sleep on her back, she would definitely shift over to Yao Zizhou’s side during her sleep. Therefore, she was too lazy to argue with herself. Nothing was more important than her own comfort now.

However, what she did not know was that Yao Zizhou, as the male lead, was the Blessed One, and had a strong attraction to the spiritual spring. It was also the spiritual spring that made her uncontrollably drawn to Yao Zizhou. It was also because of their close proximity at night that the spiritual spring was able to restore its vitality.

Very quickly, Ming Liuyi entered the realm of dreams. Without the control of human consciousness, her body unconsciously latched on to Yao Zizhou.

Yao Zizhou’s breath caught in his throat. How could this woman be so shameless? During the day, she was still thinking about how to poison him, but at night, she was blatantly taking advantage of him!

But soon, the changes in his body caused Yao Zizhou to temporarily forget about her. Unlike his usual sluggishness, his muscles today were light and energetic. His calf, which had been paralyzed for a long time, even felt somewhat warm.

Yao Zizhou’s heart was filled with joy, but he quickly suppressed it. He did not know if the sudden improvement in his body was good or bad, because he did not know what it meant…

Had Ming Liuyi done something? And that wicked woman was sleeping soundly beside him! Her body was wrapped around his, as if they were the most intimate partners in the world.

He used to have the power to do anything he wanted. Under his leadership, the Yao Corporation rose higher and higher. At that time, he wanted the whole world to be beneath his feet and have everyone bow to him.

Now, there seemed to be only Ming Liuyi left in his world.

During the day, she had hidden her evil intentions and pretended to care for him. She had indeed obtained everyone’s trust and remained by his side to gain benefits.

At night, she acted as if nothing had happened and wrapped herself around him without fear.

Yao Zizhou huffed coldly in his heart. He swore to himself that if he could wake up, that would be the day of Ming Liuyi’s death. He would make her wish she was dead!

At this moment, the soft body next to Yao Zizhou seemed to be having trouble sleeping. It gave a strong shudder and, as if seeking comfort, a fluffy little head rubbed against Yao Zizhou’s side a few times before it found a comfortable position and continued to sleep.

Yao Zizhou felt her kitten-like actions and changed his mind. If Ming Liuyi could please him like a little animal in the future, then he could be a little more merciful, and keep her by his side to play with her when he was free.

The next morning. Yao Ziyang seemed to be very eager to see Ming Liuyi’s “loyalty.” Without waiting for Ming Liuyi to wake up, a housekeeper knocked on the door to deliver the milk.

Ming Liuyi bit her lip. She knew that she could not escape this, and neither could she pretend to not hear anything. She could only respond, “Come in.”

It was the maid, Xiao Xue, who came in holding two cups of warm milk on a tray.

Ming Liuyi’s heart stuttered. “Why is there also a cup for me?”

Xiao Xue smiled. “I’m worried that the master wouldn’t take it well. Milk shouldn’t be wasted, so of course I had an extra portion prepared. What do you think, Madam?”

The alarm in Ming Liuyi’s mind went off. This maid had arrived too early, and she did not have time to make preparations. Although Yao Ziyang had said that it was a slow-acting poison, there should not be any problems drinking it for the first time. However, this was only for normal people. Yao Zizhou was in a vegetative state, and his immune system was already weak. Who knew what would happen if he drank this cup of poisoned milk?

Ming Liuyi’s mind was in turmoil, but her face remained serene. She calmly picked up the milk, then the spoon, and gently blew on it. Then, she signaled to Xiao Xue that she could leave.

“Madam,” Xiao Xue said unhurriedly, “please feed the master. If it’s not convenient for you, I can do it.”

With furrowed brows, Ming Liuyi brought the spoon to Yao Zizhou’s mouth and fed him spoonful by spoonful. However, before the milk could reach his mouth, Ming Liuyi’s hand bent slightly to the side, causing the milk to spill all over his body before it could enter his mouth.

“Madam! You should be careful, this milk is very expensive, I think I should do it,” Xiao Xue spoke again.

When Ming Liuyi heard this, she was immediately furious. She slammed the glass of milk on the table and was about to pick up her phone. “You’re just a maid, and you dare talk to me like that? Who gave you the right? I’d like to ask Yao Ziyang if he was the one who incited this!”
