"Alright, think twice before acting. I hope you can give This King a satisfactory answer." He regained his bearing as an elegant prince, and even a faint smile could be seen in his peach blossom eyes.
After sending Xiao Yiyan off, Gu Qingli let out a soft sigh. She then heard Yu Ying say that she was here.
He always came whenever he wanted to, so he was never familiar with the distribution. However, he only came once a month to deliver the antidote. Gu Qing Li was a little surprised that he was sent a message by Yu Ying this time.
Xiao Yi Xiu looked her up and down as they walked out of the door. She couldn't help but lower her head to see what was wrong with her. Why did everyone have to look at her from the beginning to the end today?
"Has Yan left?"
Gu Qingli instantly understood. It was no wonder that she hadn't seen Yu Ying for a long time. She calmly smiled. "Could it be that Your Highness still wishes for him to stay for a long time?"
Xiao Yi Xiu was as calm and distant as usual. He silently entered the room and wasn't moved by her sharp words at all.
"It will be too late for you if you come looking for Prince Chen …"
Before he could finish his words, he saw him take out a jade bottle from his sleeve and place it on the table.
"This month's antidote?"
"This King promised you last night that I would cure the poison in your body in one go."
Gu Qingli opened her eyes wide and took the bottle. She poured out a pill that was as clear as jade and a cold fragrance assaulted her nose. She sniffed at the air and said nothing.
He didn't lie to her. This medicine could cure her poison completely, but he didn't know that she had already secretly cured it herself.
"This King does not know what Ah Yan specifically came to find you to say, but This King knows very well that you will definitely know what you want to do." Slowly he took her hand, and there was something in his eyes, the same thing that had made her misunderstand every time.
Gu Qing Li's wavering heart instantly tilted. She bit her lip and held the pill in her palm.
"What, haven't you been waiting for this antidote? Isn't this the biggest obstacle for you to leave This King? " His voice was very light, his eyes very gentle.
"Now that you've gotten your wish, why didn't you take it immediately?"
She didn't answer. She suddenly said, "Prince Chen is here today to take me away from the palace, from the East Abyss."
Xiao Yixiu's expression was calm, as if everything was within his expectations.
He only looked at her more tenderly. "So you are leaving Ben Wang?"
"I'm thinking about it." Gu Qingli was troubled in her heart. After blurting it out, she felt regret. Will the Prince allow me to go? "
"Nope." He seemed to not even think about it. "But This King wants to know what you think."
"Is my idea important?" "She felt it was laughable. When had he ever cared about her thoughts?" When Your Highness wants me to stay, just one pill of poison will be enough to force me to submit. "
His eyes suddenly dimmed. "If a pill of poison was forcefully left behind by Gu Qingli's body, then where did her heart go?"
He turned around and walked out without looking back.
Yu Ying came out from the corner and hurried to catch up. After carefully confirming that there was no one behind her, she asked, "Why did the Prince leave just like that? Aren't you worried that the wangfei will really leave with Prince Chen? "
Xiao Yixiu pursed his lips into a thin line and curved it slightly upwards.
No one was more clear than him about Gu Qing Li's stubborn and gentle personality. She would never give in to a pill of poison, but a pill could shake her resolve.
She was a very smart person. In order to survive, she had to give in temporarily, but she would never give in forever. A smart person like her would always be able to see the situation clearly before making a decision. Most of them would be ruthless. If they wanted to move her heart, they couldn't use methods to deal with ordinary people.
Yu Ying sighed lightly. "Your servant sincerely wishes for your highness and wangfei to be well, but your highness is still thinking about Lady Li Yue …"
Xiao Yi Xiu had been in a good mood, but when he heard that, his expression immediately turned cold. "Shut up!"
He paused for a moment. "Go back to Ben Wang. She knows that you have come to inform her. You should be careful of yourself."
"The wangfei has never troubled this servant. These days we've been together, this servant feels that she isn't a bad person."
"Is that so?"
Xiao Yi Xiu had calculated all his options. When Gu Qing Li saw Xiao Yi Yan again, she shook her head silently in response.
She would be free to leave the Eastern Abyss, and could also go to a wider world. However, if the person who brought her away was Xiao Yiyan, she would always feel that something was wrong.
Xiao Yiyan lowered his head, a dejected mist covering his peach blossom eyes. When he lifted his head, it was a clear shade of color. He narrowed his eyes and smiled. "This King's promise is still valid. If you regret it one day, you can still come and find This King."
Gu Qingli smiled slightly. "You won't be angry?"
"Why should I be angry? Everyone has the right to choose their own path. Perhaps if you do not choose This King today, you will regret it in the future? " He blinked, starlight shining in his long eyelashes.
"I actually feel that the prince will only regret his decision to bring me out of the Eastern Abyss so easily and even give up his identity as a prince in the future."
"If you want to regret it, it should be regret not knowing you before fifth brother did."
Gu Qingli smiled and shook her head. If they had met back then, would he have liked that cowardly, obedient, and useless Gu Qingli?
Fate referred to the time when a person would be introduced, never missed or arrived late.
While listening to Yu Ying's report, Xiao Yi nodded slightly.
Yuying raised her head and looked at him with eyes full of admiration, "The prince has calculated everything perfectly, the princess' mind is entirely up to you."
Xiao Yi Xiu wasn't happy at all. As for the other woman, he could not think of nothing else. He could not even be sure of what she was thinking, and there was nothing he could do to keep her.
He could feel his condition improving day by day. Even the air current in his body started to flow slowly, staying at some points without stopping. This was all the airway he needed to open up. He knew very well that when his inner breathing was free and smooth and there was nothing left to obstruct him, he would be able to execute more martial skills just like in the old days, and once again enter the battlefield.
But that war god, Xiao Yixiu, was already one year younger than he was, and he was rarely worried about whether his broken bones would recover to its original state.
Therefore, when Yu Ying asked him if he had any grudges against Xiao Yiyan, he did not answer and was completely distracted. Until she left, he hadn't noticed.
Li Yue quietly came over and knocked on the open door a few times when she saw that he was lost in thought. Only then did she come back to his senses.
"Lady Li Yue."
"Don't worry, once you're better, you'll be just like before." She lowered her head and smoothed her silver needle bag, as if she knew what he was thinking without asking anything.
He liked the feeling that they were in agreement, that they often understood each other without saying anything, but he often couldn't place his fingers on what they were thinking, and the two extremes made him feel so uncomfortable that she always felt there was a wall in her that he couldn't break through.
The second stage of acupuncture is over. After taking this course of treatment, the acupuncture will stop.
He undressed and lay down on his back, calmly watching her.
Gu Qingli's heart was unperturbed. When she was a doctor, she only had patients in front of her. There were no commoners or princes, only ugly men and handsome men.
"Today, after the acupuncture, the Prince's meridians should be cleared smoothly. You can try your luck at the third circulation and tell me if there are any abnormalities."
Xiao Yixiu's eyes lit up and then dimmed. This surprise was beyond his expectations. After all, he had waited for more than three years. However, now that they had arrived, it seemed that they were surprised, but the joy in their hearts was diluted quite a bit.
Only he knew why.
"Miss Li Yue, are you sure you won't stay?" he asked again.
"Yes."
She did not look up to turn him into a hedgehog and then she wanted to turn around.
