Gu Yixian smiled upon hearing this, "How could that be? The medicine I just gave you was to expel the poison from your body. Most of the toxins in your body have been eliminated! How could you possibly die?"

Gu Liyan was taken aback. "Could it be that the medicinal meal you made for me, Yiyi, is to detoxify me?"

"Or do you think I gave you such awful food as punishment?"

At this point, Gu Yixian immediately let go of his hand, looked at Gu Liyan and couldn't help but say angrily, "When I woke up this morning and heard you screaming in such pain, you have no idea how worried I was! You stupid fox, I've told you so many times and you still don't know how to take care of yourself!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Liyan immediately understood; it turned out that Gu Yixian already knew...

"Yiyi, I... I didn't tell you because I was afraid you'd worry." Gu Liyan couldn't see Gu Yixian's expression at this moment. If she was really angry, wouldn't he have lied to her again...?

Seeing Gu Liyan's remorseful expression, Gu Yixian's eyes immediately reddened, but she remained silent...

Gu Liyan was unaware of Gu Yixian's expression at that moment. After a long while without hearing Gu Yixian speak, he became anxious and reached out to grab her hand, but he missed.

Gu Liyan was immediately frightened. He was afraid that Gu Yixian would leave him in anger, so he hurriedly said, "Yiyi, I was wrong, I'm sorry, can you forgive me?"

Gu Yixian covered her mouth and looked at Gu Liyan. Why does this silly fox always have to say sorry?

He's clearly the victim!

He was so gentle, a gentleness like a slow-acting poison, making one unable to resist savoring it, unable to extricate oneself, and sinking deeper and deeper—

Gu Liyan was at a loss for what to do when he couldn't hear Gu Yixian's reply.

The hazy, gray vision before him made him restless and uneasy. He, who had never been bothered by his poor sight before, now desperately wanted to see clearly, to see her, to hold her hand, to pull her into his arms…

"Yiyi?" Gu Liyan asked softly.

Gu Yixian couldn't help but shed tears as she looked at Gu Liyan.

“Gu Yixian…” Gu Liyan gritted his teeth and spoke again.

Gu Yixian looked at Gu Liyan but still didn't speak.

However, at that moment, Gu Yixian's pupils suddenly contracted, and she stared at Gu Liyan in astonishment. A single tear rolled down his handsome cheek, and then she heard Gu Liyan speak in a hoarse, choked voice:

"Gu Yixian, please don't leave me!"

Hearing his words, Gu Yixian finally couldn't help but hug Gu Liyan tightly. "My silly fox, I'm right here beside you. You can rely on me completely!"

Tears streamed down Gu Liyan's face as he held Gu Yixian tightly. "Yiyi, I'm so scared, so scared that you'll leave me..."

"I'm here, I'm here, I've always been here! Xiao Li, I've always been here! Please rely on me completely!"

Gu Yixian couldn't help but burst into tears. For Gu Liyan to completely trust her, he had to completely rely on her. Otherwise, given his personality, he wouldn't fully open his heart and say a single word—

I'm in pain...
