Chapter 18 See Who I Am?
Shen Yuning continued to question him as if it were a routine matter, but she only considered the issue elsewhere. "Do you need me to report this to the Emperor? The Japanese spies' affairs can be big or small."
Pei Yanzhou suddenly grinned, thinking that Shen Yuning was concerned about him.
"I took it by mistake!"
His eyes were blazing, and his whole body was relaxed. "I'm not a spy, and I haven't visited any brothels. I wouldn't even bother with brothels, so just relax."
Somehow, at this moment he felt a kind of joy that turned a disaster into a blessing, and was very happy.
At this time, Shen Yuning's slender jade fingers touched the pulse of his other hand.
She held her breath, wanting to know more about the condition.
But from Pei Yanzhou's perspective, she was deliberately getting close to him.
The warm touch spread to his limbs and bones along with his blood. He felt extremely refreshed and his blood began to boil again.
"Ning'er!" He called softly, his voice completely hoarse.
He decided that even if Shen Yuning had the antidote for him, he would not take it. He wanted her.
"You know best what poison I've been poisoned by. You are my medical officer, and it is your responsibility to detoxify me!"
Pei Yanzhou stared at Shen Yuning without blinking, his Adam's apple rolling, as if he had already swallowed the person in front of him.
The big palm continued to exert force, pulling her towards him little by little, "Shen Yuning, you must save me. I will be your future husband and the commander of the Xuanjia Camp!"
"Okay, don't worry, you won't die." She was still going through the motions.
Chunqiong's medicine is very strong. It is normal for the man to lose his composure after being poisoned. At most, I can knock him out in a while.
"Chen Yuning, do you know how to detoxify?" Pei Yanzhou's eyes were scorching, but his attitude was still condescending.
"I know." She had already started preparing the silver needles.
"It's not a silver needle!" Pei Yanzhou raised his voice, "You... should understand that kind of thing."
His face flushed, but there was no shame in his eyes. He would definitely let her do whatever she wanted tonight.
I wonder if she will learn to be gentle with me after a while, and if she will be more gentle with me?
Shen Yuning's hand holding the silver needle paused.
Looking at the once glorious general, now tortured like this by poison, one couldn't help but laugh.
Is this still the Pei Yanzhou she knew? Does he know that he is Meng Lang?
You almost mistook her for Chu Ruyan, right?
Maybe if a dog passes by now, he will think it is handsome.
"Ning'er, should we stay here or go to my villa?" His consciousness began to blur, and he held her hand tightly, his sense of shame gone.
Ana Shen followed his movements and gently stroked his cheek - full lips, high nose bridge, perfect facial features... This was the man she had liked for many years.
Her beautiful brows knitted together slightly, and the frost in her eyes grew deeper and deeper. "General Pei's appearance is indeed extraordinary, but it's a pity..."
"What a pity?"
"It's a pity that I can't take advantage of others' misfortune."
"Chen Yuning, I, I will... follow you tonight!" His eyes were dim as he invited her again.
"Pei Yanzhou, look carefully, I am not your Yan'er, I am Shen Yuning!" She smiled lightly.
"Wake up, I'll give you an acupuncture to stabilize the poison first, and then you can go find Chu Ruyan to detoxify it."
She arranged the silver needles on the table one by one, wondering whether to use a long needle or a short needle.
Short needles are less effective, do not hurt, and can only last for one hour. After one hour, you still need to find a woman to detoxify (consummate the marriage).
Long needles are effective. After most of the toxins are expelled, only a person with strong internal strength needs to force Chun Qiong out.
But long needles have a fatal flaw - they cause extreme pain, the kind of pain that most people find unbearable.
"What are you doing? You won't help me?" Pei Yanzhou was obviously angry, his face full of disbelief.
"It's not that I won't help you, I'm just afraid that you'll regret it so much that you'll bang your head against the wall tomorrow."
Shen Yuning selected a set of short needles, still calm and composed, "You are my savior. Even if I have feelings for you, I will never do something worse than an animal."
"But I am willing...ah——"
A needle quickly pierced Pei Yanzhou's Baihui acupoint. It didn't hurt, but he still let out a soft cry.
"Chen Yuning, are you treating me like this? Who said... I would regret it?" Pei Yanzhou's eyes were terrifyingly deep, and he looked puzzled.
"I don't understand why you won't help me?"
Isn't this the best opportunity to rely on him?
He had clearly hinted at it just now.
Shen Yuning took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, “Wait until the general wakes up before speaking!”
"Do you think I'm talking nonsense now?" The anger on Pei Yanzhou's face was visible to the naked eye.
"Isn't it?"
"I have always been sober!" Pei Yanzhou shook his sleeves, his face terribly gloomy.
He stood there and refused to move, as if he was still waiting.
"General, you only have one hour. It's still time for you to go find Chu Ruyan." She began to order him to leave, then turned around to pack up the medicine box.
"Shen Yuning——"
Pei Yanzhou was furious and walked over to grab her. "Chen Yuning, you actually let your fiancé consummate his marriage with another woman?"
"Soon it won't be." Shen Yuning lowered her eyes and didn't want to look at him.
"Very good, very good!"
Pei Yanzhou sneered and said sarcastically, "So your love for me is just talk?"
He didn't know why he was angry, but facing Shen Yuning's attitude, he just couldn't calm down.
“Hypocritical, Shen Yuning, you are so hypocritical!”
"You've been so hypocritical to me all these years. You're so selfish, ah..."
Shen Yuning grabbed Pei Yanzhou's wrist and shoved herself closer to him. "Pei Yanzhou, what did you scold me for? Say it again!"
"Yu Ning..."
The sweet fragrance wafted into his nose, and the general, who had just been shouting for war and killing, suddenly felt his bones go soft.
His breathing was unstable, and he murmured, "Ning'er..."
"Pei Yanzhou, please understand the current situation before you speak!"
"Now, I'm the one who's tolerating you!"
"You've been poisoned, you're no match for me. If you continue to be rude, I'll really tie you up in the bedroom!"
The fierceness on her face did not diminish in the slightest, and her slender fingers slowly exerted force: "I'm not the delicate Chu Ruyan. If you make me angry, I can do anything!"
"Swish--" Pei Yanzhou's face instantly turned red for a long time.
“Shen, Shen Yuning, what did you say?”
His eyes widened, and his heart softened instantly.
This witch...is she going to molest me?
“Shen Yuning, you are simply… a shrew!”
Hearing this, a hint of disdain appeared on Shen Yuning's defiant face, "Pei Yanzhou, I can do it - let Chu Ruyan come to eavesdrop on us, as long as I want!"
"call--"
Almost in an instant, Pei Yanzhou began to gasp for breath.
At this time, his consciousness had returned to normal, but his Adam's apple was still rolling, his chest was heaving, and his fingers were trembling slightly.
The haze just now disappeared.
So ambiguous, so shy.
Shen Yuning is really not a woman, she... is too bad.
Arrogant and fierce, what does she think of me?
Pei Yanzhou's fists clenched involuntarily, and there were stars in his almond-shaped eyes, as if he was really expecting something.
Strange, why am I so happy? My heart is beating so fast.
Pei Yanzhou hasn't reacted yet, over there -
"Let's go quickly, while my conscience is still alive." Shen Yuning suddenly let go of him.
Seeing his face flushed with anger, she instantly felt less angry.
After all, the Pei family has done the Shen family a favor, so just threaten him.
Shen Yuning summoned Pei Yanzhou's personal guards and soldiers: "Your master is still poisoned, send him to Chu Ruyan."
“Shen Yuning, didn’t you say you would do this to me…?”
Pei Yanzhou saw that she was serious and said anxiously, "We haven't broken off the engagement yet!"
