She looked up, trembling, at the pale-faced boy in disbelief.

"You...you, you, are you going to kill me?"

Whoosh!

Before Chu Yaoyao could finish speaking, the dagger in front of her suddenly flashed with a sharp, cold light.

This scene made her subconsciously close her eyes and freeze in place, as if resigned to her fate.

Soon, the familiar smell of blood filled her nostrils, and a look of relief appeared on Chu Yaoyao's face.

She... suffered from a serious illness since childhood and could die at any time. Therefore, she had fantasized about the feeling of death countless times.

However, this time, my death was not at all like the excruciating pain I had imagined; on the contrary, I felt nothing at all.

"suck......"

Just then, a clear, weak voice rang in her ears, and Chu Yaoyao's body trembled, and she opened her eyes instantly.

At this moment, the boy who had been holding the dagger was trembling as he shakily extended his cut hand towards her.

However, because Chu Yaoyao was paralyzed on the ground and the boy was seriously injured and had great difficulty getting up, the bleeding hand had not yet been handed over.

"You, you, you..."

Chu Yaoyao bit her lip, looking at the boy in disbelief, as if she never expected that he would do these things for her.

"Inhale, inhale quickly..."

"To live, you must take... "

The young mistress's cold voice came again, intermittently.

Before Chu Yaoyao could make a move, the boy who had been desperately extending his palm collapsed weakly onto the bed.

However, as if imbued with some kind of conviction, the hand did not fall... but stood upright.

Strands of crimson blood slid down from it, like blood-red lines constantly cracking on a piece of unpolished jade. It was bewitching and incomplete, yet it gave people an indescribable sense of tragic beauty.

This scene brought tears to Chu Yaoyao's eyes.

She choked back tears, wiped them from her face, and grabbed the bloodied arm.

"I...want to live..."

That's all.

Chu Yaoyao then began to suck blood.

As time went by, a touch of rosiness appeared on her pale face.

Soon, following the flow of blood, she saw a huge, deep wound on the boy's palm, so deep that the bone was visible.

At this moment, blood was still gushing out of the wound.

But Chu Yaoyao stopped after sucking the blood around the wound. Instead, she tore off a strip of cloth from her sleeve and carefully bandaged the wound on the boy's hand.

After that, she fetched water, fed it to the boy, and wiped the bloodstains from his face and hands.

After doing all this, she moved a small stool over, propped her head up with her hands, and silently stood guard by the bedside.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but she, already weak, lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep, accompanied by the bright moon and stars, and the fireflies in the mountains.

......

[Ding! The host's death threat has been eliminated, and life has been successfully restored. Current lifespan: one month!]

Whoosh!

The cold notification sound woke Su Bai. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a woman lying next to him, fast asleep.

Perhaps she was having a sweet and wonderful dream, because there was still a little bit of drool hanging from the corner of her mouth.

Sizzle...

Just then, memories flooded back, and Su Bai instantly understood what had happened.

He also knew that it was this woman in front of him who had saved him with her life-saving medicine.
