Pei Yuan shouted "I'm wrong" 150 times in a row. Bao Ning was annoyed by the end and wanted to stop him, but he was addicted and insisted on finishing. He

read for a full quarter of an hour.

Pei Yuan asked, "Are you satisfied?"

Bao Ning ignored him and turned to walk down the bridge. Pei Yuan held her back and said, "Didn't I count it? It's exactly 500 words, all according to your wishes."

Bao Ning shook his hand away and said shyly, "I really don't know where you learned these tricks of deceiving people. You can't find a few serious words in your mouth. You are all lies, a big liar."

Pei Yuan said seriously, "My heart is sincere to you."

Bao Ning looked at him in surprise, and was surprised that this man really changed. After these few days, she and he quarreled, Pei Yuan changed a lot compared to before, but he didn't follow the right path, became smooth-talking, dared to say anything.

Or maybe this is his nature, a bandit and hooligan, not a decent person.

Pei Yuan didn't wait for Bao Ning to react, took a step forward, picked her up and walked to the carriage not far away: "Let's not talk about this, let's go to another place and take you to play."

Bao Ning was startled by his action. There were people watching nearby. Bao Ning was not as bold as him. She patted his arm and struggled: "What are you doing? Put me down!"

Pei Yuan did not let up: "We are a proper couple, what are we afraid of?"

They walked on a small road, but inevitably met some passers-by. Seeing this situation, they all whispered to each other. Bao Ning could not help but feel embarrassed. She buried her face in Pei Yuan's neck and dared not show it.

After finally reaching the carriage, the driver opened the door. Before Pei Yuan could react, Bao Ning slipped in like a rabbit. Her cheeks were already red, and she looked at Pei Yuan angrily.

Pei Yuan sat next to her with a smug look on his face, his legs apart, and his back relaxed and leaning back.

Afraid of being heard by outsiders, Bao Ning lowered his voice: "You are a little too bold. You do such a thing in public."

Pei Yuan made a low sound in his throat, and then said "hmm", and then said nothing.

The driver whipped the horse and the horse ran. Except for the sound of the wheels rubbing against the ground, the carriage was dark and silent.

Bao Ning had been waiting for Pei Yuan to speak, but after a long time, he still didn't hear anything. He looked at him and found that Pei Yuan's face had turned pale and his lips had lost their color.

Bao Ning's heart shrank. He didn't want to think about what happened just now, and quickly rolled up his sleeves to take a look. Sure enough, the poison on his wrist had spread a lot, especially the area where the red pill first appeared. It was the size of a soybean and was undulating and surging. It looked scary and seemed to have life.

"Don't look." Pei Yuan closed his eyes, pulled down his sleeves, and spoke in a weak voice.

Bao Ning had never seen such a scene before. She felt as if Pei Yuan was seriously ill in an instant. The vigorous and energetic state just now was gone. She hurried to touch Pei Yuan's forehead, and it was cold.

"What's going on?" Bao Ning's voice trembled. She couldn't help but think about the bad side. "Why did it suddenly attack? It wasn't so severe before..."

Bao Ning remembered something, and quickly opened the car curtain to look out, and saw a low-flying swallow. The bright sunshine a quarter of an hour ago disappeared, blocked by dark clouds, as if it was going to rain.

Pei Yuan chuckled behind her: "This poison is quite accurate."

Bao Ning couldn't laugh. She recalled the rainy day a few days ago, the day when Zhou Jiangcheng got into trouble. Pei Yuan had been behaving well all night, so why did he become like this today? Could it be that the poison had accumulated to a certain extent and would suddenly explode?

"Don't worry." Pei Yuan leaned over and hugged her, resting his forehead on her hair, and whispered comfortingly, "I'm very powerful, and I'll be fine after this period of time."

Bao Ning turned her back to him and didn't dare to move. She could feel the beating of Pei Yuan's meridians, as if there were many tiny insects bumping into his body.

Pei Yuan took a deep breath and hugged her tighter.

Baoning opened her mouth and whispered, "Does it hurt?"

Pei Yuan didn't answer for a long time. Baoning thought he was asleep, but his voice rang in her ears: "It hurts."

Baoning's heart suddenly couldn't bear it, and her nose was sour.

They have been together for so long, Pei Yuan's temper is too wild, he doesn't know how to take care of his body, he has suffered all kinds of injuries, and has shed so much blood, but he never told her that it hurts. This is the first time.

"We went to the wrong place." Pei Yuan suddenly said this.

Baoning didn't react: "What?"

"We shouldn't have gone to the broken bridge. When we were standing there, I felt like someone was staring at us, in the direction of the cruise ship."

Baoning shuddered: "Who was it?"

"I don't know." Pei Yuan closed his eyes, "I was the last to notice it. I knew you would be scared, so I didn't dare tell you and left in a hurry."

Baoning suddenly realized that he was talking about the reason why he brought her back that time.

Baoning paused: "You can just lead me and walk, why do you choose such a strenuous way? You know it's going to rain and I'm not feeling well!"

"I forgot. I just got hot-headed." Pei Yuan held her face and turned it towards him. His lips slid down and sucked Baoning's eyelids. "I'm scared. You're too beautiful and too lovable. There are always people who want to snatch you from me. The one with the surname Feng, the one with the surname Xu, the one with the surname Zhou..."

He was a little confused and murmured in Baoning's ear: "I really want to kill them."

Baoning only heard the word "kill".

She didn't take it to heart. She held Pei Yuan's head and helped him change his position, letting Pei Yuan rest his head on her thighs, coaxing him: "Okay, don't say anything, you rest your mind, let's go home now."

Baoning's hand was on his forehead. Pei Yuan's lips were already frighteningly pale. She exhaled softly and told herself not to panic. We

can't wait any longer. Tonight, we have to try our best to see if the leeches can detoxify!

...

When we arrived at Qiu Mansion, it was raining heavily. Now it was early summer and there was a lot of rain. We didn't know when this rain would end.

Pei Yuan had survived the difficult period at the beginning. In fact, he had expected it. The last time, the poison was suppressed by him. Zhou Jiangcheng did something extraordinary, and he got angry for a while and didn't care about the consequences, and got hurt. This time, the pain of the poison was twice as much as before.

There was an umbrella in the carriage, Bao Ning wanted to get off first and wait for Pei Yuan to get off with the umbrella, but he suddenly stood up, jumped down first as usual, and stretched out his hand to catch her.

Under the rain, he looked normal, if it weren't for the trembling hand holding the umbrella, he would be almost a healthy and normal person.

The driver was watching them with a smile. Bao Ning knew that Pei Yuan was just trying to hold on. First, it was for his self-esteem. He didn't want to show weakness in front of outsiders. Second, for his safety, he had to pretend to be strong in front of everyone so that people wouldn't think he was weak and bully him at will.

Bao Ning held Pei Yuan's hand and jumped down. The moment she landed, Pei Yuan hugged her and put his lips on the back of her neck. It felt wet.

Something watery flowed down her neck.

Bao Ning looked up at Pei Yuan. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb and put his hand on her shoulder naturally: "Let's go."

Bao Ning was very sad. She realized that Pei Yuan was really not well this time, worse than any other time.

"I'll support you." Bao Ning grabbed his arm and held his elbow.

Pei Yuan did not refuse. He leaned his head and gently kissed Bao Ning's cheek, as if rewarding and encouraging her.

Bao Ning's eyes were red. She looked at Pei Yuan and felt that he was particularly vulnerable at the moment. When people are vulnerable, their minds will also become softer, just like him now.

"Pei Yuan, hold on." Bao Ning lowered her eyes and pulled him forward. She looked at her toes. "I'm not angry with you anymore. I also forgive you for the confession you wrote to fool me. Just be good. I'll make you a bowl of dumplings tomorrow morning."

"Are you stupid?" Pei Yuan snorted. He still had the energy to make a joke. "You should be thankful that you met me. Otherwise, with your ability, if you really met a liar, you would be sold out in a blink of an eye."

Bao Ning was scolded for being stupid for the second time today. Ji Yan also said that to her at that time, and warned her to be more vigilant. You can't judge a person by his appearance.

She raised her head and looked at Pei Yuan. He was holding an umbrella in his hand. His fingers were as beautiful as the umbrella bones, slender, and with distinct joints.

His eyes were smiling, but his fingertips were pinching tighter and tighter. Finally, he coughed, bent his waist in pain, and spat out blood that splashed on Baoning's shoulder.

Pei Yuan coaxed her: "Don't think I'm dirty. I'll wash your clothes when I get better tomorrow."

Baoning suddenly burst into tears. She felt blocked and depressed. She wiped her tears while dragging Pei Yuan to the yard. The wind was too strong and the umbrella was useless. Baoning knew that they must be in a very bad state now. Pei Yuan was very considerate. Knowing that she was in a bad mood, he told jokes to make her laugh all the way, coughing as he spoke. Baoning

felt that Pei Yuan like this was not as lovely as the annoying Pei Yuan before.

The annoying Pei Yuan made people angry, but the current Pei Yuan made people feel distressed. She would rather be angry than feel pain.

...

Under a lush crabapple tree, stood a pair of sisters.

The older one was wearing a rouge-colored dress, with delicate and gorgeous makeup, drooping eyebrows, and red lips. She followed the direction Pei Yuan left with her eyes, and her eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

"Aren't you getting along well with that woman?" Qiu Lingjun looked at her sister, "What's wrong with the Fourth Prince? Is he sick?"

Qiu Lingyan was panicked: "I, I don't know."

"Don't lie to me." Qiu Lingjun squatted down, smiled, and rubbed her chubby cheeks. Suddenly, his face changed and he pinched her hard, "Without my protection, you would have been thrown away the day you were born. How could you have lived to this day? Look at your face, even ghosts would be scared to tears. I saved your life, you have to listen to me!"

"I know, I know, sister." Qiu Lingyan cried out, she didn't dare to speak loudly, and covered her lips desperately.

"You're so good." Qiu Lingjun coaxed her, "I'm your sister. I won't harm you no matter who I am. You will protect me, right?"

Qiu Lingyan nodded in confusion. Seeing Qiu Lingjun was about to cry again, she said to her, "Yanzi, are you willing to let your sister marry that stupid second prince?"

"No..."

Qiu Lingjun coaxed her, "So, now, tell me everything you know, without missing a word. Do you understand?"
