Su Jin walked up to Qu Yi, and without wasting words with him, directly gave him a choice.
"If you're unwilling to reveal this because you're doing it for Shen Qianxue's sake and for his safety, then you can leave. No one will stop you."
"But if not, and Shen Qianxue is in danger or needs our help, then you should tell us as soon as possible, shouldn't you?"
Qu Yi stared at Su Jinxia, his eyes filled with conflict, but he didn't leave immediately.
Clearly, Shen Qianxue was not in a good situation at the moment.
Su Jin stepped forward and said softly, "Tell me."
Su Jinxia's eyes were full of unease, but Qu Yi could tell that Su Jinxia was trying hard to suppress this unease because she was holding onto hope and couldn't let herself panic first.
Qu Yi sighed, his body slumping. "I don't know why the young master left alone, but I suspect it might be related to his poisoning."
Everyone was shocked.
Su Jin's heart pounded wildly. "When did this happen? How could I have been poisoned?"
Qu Yi took a deep breath and revealed the entire deal between Shen Qianxue and Zhou Ji.
Finally, they added, "We found the remaining three antidotes on Zhou Ji. The last one was taken last month, so the young master... may not have much time left!"
Qu Yi's voice choked with emotion.
Everyone was stunned.
The nun who rushed over just happened to hear these words. All her strength seemed to be drained away, and she collapsed softly to the ground.
Su Jin rushed over and helped the nun up. "Don't worry, nun. We don't know what kind of poison he's been poisoned with. Perhaps there's a solution. The important thing now is to find him."
The nun's calm expression vanished, replaced by deep panic and helplessness.
Su Jinxia herself was also very anxious and confused, but she still had to comfort the nun.
While she could offer words of comfort, Su Jinxia knew very well that Shen Qianxue was not a self-deprecating person. The reason he kept his distance and avoided meeting with everyone must be because the poison was difficult to cure.
Therefore, Shen Qianxue reconciled with the nun, reconciled with Su Jinxia, reconciled with Yang Jiaoruo, and said goodbye to everything.
His only wish was probably to save Su Jinxia, but he quietly left.
Crystalline tears slid down her cheeks. Su Jin sniffed and blinked, then helped the nun up with all her might, assuring her, "Don't worry, nun, I will definitely find him, I will definitely save him!"
The nun was not a weak person. After her initial fear, she quickly calmed down. "Yes, we must find him first, find out what poison he has been poisoned with, and there must be a way to cure him."
Su Jin nodded vigorously. If the nun could revive someone like her who was on the verge of death, then a mere poison would surely save her.
It can definitely be solved!
Su Jin made a quick decision, sending everyone out to search for Shen Qianxue, and then escorting the nun back to her room.
The nun was uneasy, so Su Jin stayed by her side.
With tears welling up in her eyes, the nun spoke of Shen Qianxue's childhood.
“He has always been an exceptionally sensible child, so sensible that sometimes I overlook his feelings.”
"Once, his birthday was approaching, and I asked him what gift he wanted. He said he wanted his mother to be with him forever, and to be happy every day!"
The dusty memories are like the wings of a butterfly, gently bringing back those gradually forgotten pasts.
“I was so sad to hear these words. He was only five years old at the time, so I promised him that I would throw him a big birthday party.”
"Because I didn't like crowds back then, his birthday banquets were always simple, so he was especially happy to hear that. He told all his friends about it and invited them to come and play."
"But on that day, I broke my promise. Because of some things with his father, I was very sad and stayed at home for many days, and I even forgot his birthday."
“He came to see me on my birthday, but he probably sensed that I was in a bad mood, so he didn’t mention the birthday party at all. It wasn’t until several days later that I suddenly remembered.”
“I went to apologize to him, and he hugged me and said it was okay, and I could celebrate my birthday next year. That’s when I found out that the birthday party was never held. He wouldn’t allow it to be held, and he wouldn’t allow anyone to bother me. He said that if his mother was unhappy, no one else could be happy either.”
The nun broke down in tears, and Su Jinxia hugged her, her eyes also brimming with tears.
“I’m so sorry to him. I could tell he was terrified of me leaving, but I still cruelly abandoned him. I’m a terrible mother. It’s all my fault…”
Su Jin felt a lump in her throat, but didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only hold her and stay with her silently.
The nun talked a lot, describing how Shen Qianxue was well-behaved and adorable when she was a child. She seemed completely different from the Shen Qianxue of today, yet they were also very similar.
Even though Shen Qianxue always appears aloof and cold now, Su Jinxia has always known that he is upright, warm, sensible, and kind, and that his core nature has never changed.
In the early hours of the morning, the nun finally drifted off to sleep.
Su Jinxia settled the nun on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then quietly withdrew.
As soon as Su Jin stepped outside, she saw Su Hu leaning against the courtyard gate, his head bowed in dejection.
Su Jin walked over and gently poked Su Hu's arm.
Su Hu snapped out of his reverie, his eyes dimming slightly when he saw Su Jin leave. He then looked back at the room behind him, his emotions a jumble of complex emotions.
Su Jin tilted her head, sensing that something was wrong with Su Hu.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Su Hu licked his lips and said softly, "There's something I've never told you."
Su Jin's expression changed. "What is it?"
Su Hu took a deep breath and explained, "After you fell into a coma at Phoenix Pavilion, I told him everything you had done that you had kept from Shen Qianxue."
Su Jin down...
Su Hu lowered his head guiltily.
In Su Hu's view, Shen Qianxue had already withdrawn from the struggle for power and had been severely injured by Su Jin, so it was impossible for her to ever get involved in anything on the battlefield again.
However, Su Hu told Shen Qianxue about Su Jinxia's actions. Although Shen Qianxue said she wouldn't forgive him, she was actually heartbroken. That's why she re-examined Su Jinxia's assessment of the battle situation. In order to unify the world as soon as possible, she risked her life to penetrate deep into the Ji army.
Wasn't all of this because he wanted to fulfill what Su Jinxia was worried about before she died? Wasn't it all because he was hopelessly in love?
It was Su Hu who ruined Su Jinxia's original plan, which led to Shen Qianxue's current predicament. Therefore, Su Hu felt that he had an inescapable responsibility.
Su Jinxia quickly realized this. In fact, if we were to say who the culprit was, it wouldn't be Su Hu's turn. Everything was Su Jinxia's doing.
Su Jin patted Su Hu's arm. "I know. Go back and rest. I'll find him."
Su Hu's eyes still showed a hint of dejection; he wasn't very optimistic.
If Shen Qianxue really wanted to hide, it would be difficult to find her, especially since, according to Qu Yi, Shen Qianxue's poison would take effect in the next few days.
Su Jin didn't know where she was going. But she dared not collapse, she couldn't collapse, she had to believe in herself!
