Seeing Qingzhu's expression, Yuanzhao knew something was wrong. She told Wenfeng and the others what was going on, then took Jinzhu and left with Qingzhu.

"Will something happen?"

Linglong asked worriedly?

They didn't know what was going on between their young lady and that eunuch, but she was still filled with fear of Rong Ruo, especially since Qingzhu's expression had just turned strange.

Wen Feng was calmer than her, and after biting his lip, he said:

"Let's wait and see. If there's no news by tomorrow, we'll go and inform the general."

Linglong nodded.

Yuan Zhao knew something must have happened as soon as she saw Qingzhu, but she was still shocked when she arrived at the Rong residence and saw Rong Ruo lying there motionless.

Even before she got close, she could feel the coldness emanating from Rong Ruo.

"What...what's going on?"

Although Rong Ruo hasn't been drawing blood from her recently, his cold poison has been kept under control because he spends every night with her.

How did he suddenly become like this?

No one answered her. Wusong was administering acupuncture to Rongruo when she saw Yuanzhao approaching, and quickly said:

"Miss Yuan, I need your blood."

Yuan Zhao nodded and extended his hand without hesitation.

This was something she had promised beforehand.

Soon, Yuan Zhao had a bowl of blood drawn, which Wusong then gave to Rong Ruo to drink.

Although I already knew, seeing Rong Ruo drink blood with my own eyes was a completely different feeling.

After drinking a bowl of blood, Rong Ruo's chill dissipated noticeably, and color slowly returned to his pale face. His eyelashes began to tremble slightly, as if he were about to wake up.

Yuan Zhao had never seen this evil star so sickly and weak; there was still blood left at the corner of his mouth.

The contrast of white and red made him appear even more dangerous and striking.

He's like a contradiction; you know he's dangerous, but you still can't help but want to get close to him.

Yuan Zhao found this feeling very strange. She knew exactly what kind of person Rong Ruo was. He was someone who didn't need anyone's sympathy or pity. He was so powerful. But seeing Rong Ruo at this moment, she felt a strange pity rising in her heart.

In a short while, Rong Ruo gradually recovered and slowly opened his eyes.

"Master Supervisor!"

Upon seeing Rong Ruo awaken, Wu Song and Qing Zhu both breathed a sigh of relief.

Rong Ruo didn't look at them. He first frowned slightly when he felt the familiar taste of blood in his mouth, and then subconsciously looked at Yuan Zhao.

When he saw the white cloth wrapped around her hand, his brows furrowed even more.

He sat up, and with a wave of his hand, Qingzhu quickly served him the tea that had been prepared beforehand.

Rong Ruo rinsed his mouth several times before stopping.

"Master Supervisor, what happened? The cold poison in your body should have been suppressed, how come..."

"I don't understand," Wusong asked.

Upon hearing this, Rong Ruo's expression darkened, a cold smile appearing on his lips, and he said indifferently:

"The Crown Prince has bestowed upon me a cup of wine."

He didn't hide his words from Yuan Zhao, and by then it was too late for Yuan Zhao to leave.

Rong Ruo's words contained a great deal of information, and Yuan Zhao realized something, but it was too late to back out at this point.

Just then, Rong Ruo spoke:

"Bring the food up."

Qingzhu was taken aback, then suddenly realized something, glanced at Yuan Zhao whose lips were pale, and hurried away.

"Master, thankfully we discovered it in time this time. Please be extra careful next time."

"It's frost," Wusong said cryptically.

That wine was no ordinary wine. It wouldn't cause any harm to ordinary people, but anyone poisoned by cold would surely die if they drank it.

If it weren't for the fact that the cold poison within the Grand Tutor's body had been largely cured over the past few years, and that Yuan Zhao was present, things might have turned out differently today...

Rong Ruo didn't speak, and Wusong and Jinzhu also left, leaving only Rong Ruo and Yuan Zhao in the room.

Rong Ruo raised her eyes and glanced at Yuan Zhao: "You've been quite obedient today!"
