"Hahaha..." Duan Yu's smile makes people tremble.

Qin Hui felt that his decision was wrong the next second.

He shouldn't have begged Duan Yu to spare his life, because Duan Yu stared at him straight, and that look made people feel no warmth or kindness. On the contrary, it exuded a cold breath, as if it could penetrate the human soul.

Qin Hui couldn't help but shiver.

"Don't worry, I won't let you die." After Duan Yu said this, Qin Hui felt a piercing pain.

Duan Yu inserted a few needles into his acupuncture points...

Qin Hui would faint from the unbearable pain.

Gu Yufei slowly opened her eyes, as if waking from a long dream. The sunlight shone through the window onto her face, warming her skin and illuminating the entire room.

She moved her fingers gently, feeling the strength slowly returning to her body. As her consciousness gradually cleared, she recalled the previous events, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. Perhaps because she had just woken up, her voice was a little hoarse. "Where am I?"

She tried to sit up, but her body seemed a little weak. After a few attempts, she finally succeeded in sitting up and leaned against the headboard. Looking around, she saw familiar furnishings and decorations. This was her room in the princess's mansion.

"No, brother! Where is Gu Yunfei?" Gu Yufei found Duan Yu anxiously.

Duan Yu was actually in the next room, and Du Minting was nowhere to be found.

"Duan Yu, where did you take Gu Yunfei?" Gu Yufei stared at Duan Yu, as if trying to find the answer from his expression.

Duan Yu hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "You woke up so quickly. It seems my medicine is very effective."

Gu Yufei's brows furrowed even tighter, and she raised her voice: "Duan Yu, I know you hid him. Tell me, where is he?"

Duan Yu picked up the teacup and said casually, "I sent him back to Jiangcheng."

Gu Yufei's eyes widened as she shouted angrily, "How could you do this? Are you crazy? Our Gu family risked our lives to come here and find you, and it's fine if you don't appreciate it."

Duan Yu crossed his arms over his chest: "It's too dangerous for him to stay here. The safest place is to return to Jiangcheng."

Gu Yufei bit her lip and said, "I want to go back too. I won't care what you want to do in the future." As she said that, she was about to get out of bed.

Duan Yu tightly grasped Gu Yufei's wrist, his eyes revealing determination. He lowered his voice and said, "Don't leave." Gu Yufei's face was full of disgust. She struggled to break free from Duan Yu's hand and responded angrily, "I must leave!"

Duan Yu refused to let go, his expression becoming serious, as if he was trying to control his emotions. Gu Yufei did not flinch, her eyes becoming even colder, as if she was disgusted by Duan Yu's obstruction.

"Enough, I've seen through you." Gu Yufei struggled hard again, her body trembling slightly, and she had obviously made up her mind.

Gu Yufei turned her face away.

Duan Yu felt a surge of anger in his heart: "I told you to stay, so you have to stay. You are not allowed to go anywhere."

"I'm not Yueya or Yueying. I'm of no use to you here. Why are you keeping me here?"

Tears glistened in the corners of the girl's eyes, making her look pitiful and with a broken beauty.
