Ye Chen looked at the bowl and knife placed in front of him, his eyes darkening.
But in the end, he said nothing, picked up the knife, and without hesitation slashed his own arm.
Fresh blood flowed from the wound and into the bowl on the table.
Shi Nian gave him a large bowl.
To fill this bowl, at least 1,000 milliliters of blood would be needed.
Ye Chen silently bled.
Only when the bowl was full of blood did he press his wound and look up at Shi Nian.
Shi Nian had already picked up her chopsticks and continued eating at some point, seemingly unconcerned about what was happening on his end.
Ye Chen's eyes darkened, and a bittersweet feeling welled up in his heart.
Does Shi Nian really not care about him at all?
"Niannian..." he called out, his voice a little hoarse.
"Hmm? Finished?" Shi Nian mumbled a reply, her mouth still full of food.
She swallowed what was in her mouth and glanced up at him.
Upon seeing the bowl full of blood, her eyes lit up, and a sweet smile appeared on her face. "Now that Uncle has finished bleeding, please go back."
A hint of expectation flickered in Ye Chen's dark eyes. "Niannian, have you forgiven me?"
Shi Nian blinked and said innocently, "What are you thinking, Uncle? I only said that if you do as I ask, I will consider whether to forgive you. I haven't thought it through yet. You go back first, and I will tell you when I have thought it through."
"Are you deliberately teasing me?" Ye Chen's face darkened, and he felt a tightness in his chest.
"No, I really wanted to see how sincere your apology was. Now that I see your sincerity, I will definitely consider it seriously~" Shi Nian said with a sweet smile.
Looking at the bowl of blood, she felt very happy.
With this bowl of blood, not only could she give it to Qiu Bai for research, but she could also avoid contact with him for a long time.
Even if Qiu Bai can't immediately sever her connection with Ye Chen, she won't have to worry about replenishing her energy!
Just thinking about it makes me happy!
Ye Chen stared intently at Shi Nian.
But he ultimately said nothing and turned to walk away.
His slender back looked somewhat lonely and forlorn.
But Shi Nian's attention wasn't on him; instead, her eyes were shining as she looked at the bowl of blood, as if it were a treasure!
…
Ye Chen walked out of the villa with cold hands and feet and got into the car parked in front of the villa.
As soon as he got on the bus, he seemed completely exhausted, leaning wearily against the seat with his eyes slightly closed.
"Fifth Master, what's wrong?" Zhou Zheng, who was in the driver's seat, turned around and looked at Ye Chen. He noticed that Ye Chen's face was terribly pale, his lips were bloodless, and he looked very unwell. He immediately asked with concern.
Ye Chen's low, hoarse voice betrayed his exhaustion: "I'm fine, let's go back."
He had been injured several times recently and had already lost some blood. Now, with so much blood being drained at once, his body is just not used to it yet, but he won't die.
Zhou Zheng was very worried about his master's health.
Zhou Zheng couldn't figure it out and didn't dare to ask, so he could only drive away with a heavy heart.
