Nalan Mingqing smiled at Huxin, his seemingly innocent gaze appearing to look deep into one's heart.
"Miss Xia, it seems you don't really want to go to Luoming Mountain tomorrow?" Nalan Mingqing spoke softly.
Huxin raised her eyebrows slightly and replied calmly, "Do you have a way?"
"I can offer a foolproof plan for free." A hint of mischief suddenly appeared in Nalan Mingqing's smile, the wicked aura flashing by so quickly that it was hard to catch.
"Since ancient times, cheap goods have never been good. Especially with buy one get one free offers, there's even less guarantee." Huxin's tone remained indifferent, devoid of any warmth or fluctuation.
"This one is really worth trying." Nalan Mingqing gently persuaded Huxin, his eyes shining with clarity that would likely put anyone at ease around this young and delicate man.
"Why should I try? If it turns out poorly, there’s no remedy in this world. We’ve only known each other for half an hour; we haven't even truly met. Your credibility means nothing to me."
Huxin's cold demeanor made Nalan Mingqing's eyes flicker momentarily. The next moment, he raised his hand to cover the injured area on his chest, a harmless and radiant smile curling at the corners of his lips as he said in a hushed voice,
"Then I'll bet my life on it. If I can pull out the feathered arrow myself, will you trust me just once, Miss Xia?"
"Master!"
As soon as Nalan Mingqing finished speaking, Sui Feng and Suiyu couldn't help but exclaim.
"Why should I bet with you? I'm not interested in your wager."
"I bet Miss Xia will agree to me, especially after I pull out the arrow!"
The boundless darkness in Nalan Mingqing's eyes radiated a decisive brilliance at this moment, making Huxin feel as if he saw a modern version of himself, someone who once erupted with extreme potential and resolute purpose within the club.
With a startled cry from Sui Feng and Suiyu, a spray of crimson blood mist erupted; Nalan Mingqing had indeed pulled out the feathered arrow himself. Huxin leaned slightly forward, but the next moment he suddenly felt darkness enveloping him, his body going soft and losing strength, nearly collapsing to the ground.
"Did you drug me in the room?" Huxin narrowed his eyes slightly, a chilling coldness evident in his gaze.
On the bed, Nalan Mingqing's face was as pale as paper, his white clothes stained with more blood, making it impossible to discern their original color. He possessed two contrasting qualities: boundless darkness and pure harmlessness.
"I didn't drug you, but I never said this feathered arrow was poison-free. Those who want to kill me, Nalan Mingqing, have truly gone to great lengths. The arrow is coated with the most toxic Qian Se Fei from the entire continent. When this arrow pierced my body, I knew that the only antidote was the Blood-Calling Insect from the Summer Family Apothecary. And Suiyu, with a physique similar to yours, can easily disguise himself as you. In two hours, dawn will break, and when it does, everyone from the Xia Family will be busy preparing for your early departure to Luoming Mountain. At that time, Suiyu will impersonate you to distract the guards at the Xia Family's pharmacy, allowing Sui Feng to enter and retrieve the insects to counteract the poison of Qian Se Fei within me. Before that, I, Nalan Mingqing, naturally know that Xiahou taught Miss Xia the Nanhai Zhenjing ten years ago to protect your safety in critical moments. The Nanhai Zhenjing can make you immune to all poisons, but if this poison spreads through the air mixed with blood poison, it becomes utterly ineffective because no one would joke with their own life and intentionally get poisoned by Qian Se Fei, only to bleed out enough to break your Nanhai Zhenjing! Every move I calculated precisely without error because... my life cannot afford any flaws or mistakes!"
As soon as Nalan Mingqing finished speaking, Huxin's body went limp and fell toward the ground.
Standing before the bed, both Sui Feng and Suiyu looked at their master with expressions of disbelief and shock.
Even they had no idea their master had such plans.
How could this be the young master they were familiar with?
Before collapsing, Huxin faintly heard Nalan Mingqing's voice—pure and harmless—softly say,
"Remove all her clothes and bring her beside me."
"Young Master, what is this?" Sui Feng and Suiyu exchanged glances, their faces turning red in an instant, and they stood frozen in place like wooden statues for a while, unable to react.
Could the Young Master be thinking about matters between men and women at this time? Even if Miss Xia possesses stunning beauty, the Young Master shouldn't...
"Didn't she say she didn't want to go to Luoming Mountain tomorrow? If I sleep with her, then she won't be able to go! Hehe..."
Nalan Mingqing's voice was soft and rustling, but the last chuckle contained a hint of devilish malice.
...
Early the next morning, when Qing Yan pushed open Huxin's room door, she covered her mouth and tears streamed down her face before she could get closer.
Huxin lay quietly on the bed, her upper body completely bare, with a thin blanket covering her from the waist down. Her smooth back was marked with numerous red spots.
