"Xiao Yao..." Ye Qingying's blood-red eyes seemed to be regaining their light, little by little.
Xiao Yao...
Anyone could see that when he lost consciousness, only the name Xiao Yao could calm him down.
Feng Jinrui rolled over, pulling Chu Qianli behind him, and carefully stood up from the ground.
Wang Yue arrived, and together with Jing Ri and Leng Ji, they slowly walked towards Ye Qingying.
However, Chu Qianli glanced at the three of them, forbidding them from approaching.
Her master was controlled by the蛊毒 (gu poison). Even if he seemed calm now, it didn't mean he was truly safe.
If he were provoked, he might suddenly act out.
As Chu Qianli was about to step forward, Feng Jinrui pulled her back again.
Chu Qianli gently tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to stay quiet.
She slowly walked out from behind Feng Jinrui.
"Xiao Yao..." Ye Qingying looked at her.
Her figure was the only light in his eyes.
Seeing Ye Qingying in this state, Chu Qianli couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
Perhaps he had indeed hurt her before, but later, he had protected her with his life.
If he owed her, then now, she was the only light in his eyes. Hadn't this debt already been repaid?
She truly didn't hate him in her heart.
"Master, I am Xiao Yao. Don't get agitated, listen to me, calm down, I can help you."
Chu Qianli turned her wrist, carefully placing a silver needle between her fingers.
"Master, I can really help you, believe me, I can help you calm down."
"Xiao Yao..." Her voice could indeed help Ye Qingying stabilize his consciousness.
His clouded eyes slowly gained a touch of clarity.
He seemed to be coming to his senses.
"Xiao Yao, what... what am I doing?"
"You're not doing anything, Master. Let me help you, I won't harm you."
Chu Qianli broke free from Feng Jinrui's grasp and slowly walked towards him. "Master, let me give you acupuncture to stabilize your heart脉 (heart meridian). Don't resist, I will never harm you."
Ye Qingying remained silent, simply watching her.
How could his Xiao Yao harm him?
Instead, he was afraid of hurting her.
As Chu Qianli got closer to him, Ye Qingying suddenly stopped and took two steps back.
The people around them immediately became tense.
No one had expected the out-of-control Ye Qingying to be so formidable. With the Xuan Prince not yet returned, there wasn't a single person in the entire prince's manor who could match him.
Leng Ji waved his hand behind him, and Jing Ri cautiously retreated, turning around and quickly leaving.
Chu Qianli knew what he was going to do.
Although there was no one in the prince's manor who could match Ye Qingying, the manor was filled with experts.
And there was also the formation of archers, which even top experts found difficult to break through!
Once the archers were ready to attack, even if her master was powerful, he wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.
More likely, he would die here.
She couldn't let such a thing happen.
"Master, listen to me, you have to believe me, you will get better."
Chu Qianli quickened her pace. Although she still didn't dare to walk too fast, she quickly closed the distance between them.
"Master, let me give you acupuncture, okay?"
Ye Qingying looked at her, perhaps realizing what he had done.
Seeing the bloodstain on Feng Jinrui's lips, a wave of unease washed over him.
"Xiao Yao, don't come closer, Master is... very unstable right now." He took two more steps back.
Chu Qianli's eyes lit up. Her master had regained consciousness.
"Let me give you acupuncture, I can help suppress the 蛊毒 (gu poison), Master!"
But Ye Qingying dared not.
Even Feng Jinrui had been injured by him. If his 蛊毒 (gu poison) suddenly flared up again, he would hurt his little girl!
"Don't come closer."
Ye Qingying took a deep breath and closed his eyes tightly.
"Master will not harm you, absolutely will not harm you!"
Suddenly, he raised his hand.
Just as everyone thought he was about to harm Chu Qianli and rushed forward, they saw Ye Qingying's palm strike directly towards his own chest!
