Xu Jinyi was drunk, her bright eyes became blurred, and her fair face was flushed.
His body was swaying as if he was about to fall off the table.
Behind the tablet in the ancestral hall, a pair of deep eyes were fixed on her, with a hint of murderous intent.
As if sensing a chill coming from behind him, Xu Jinyi tilted her head and looked over, only to meet a pair of wolf-like eyes.
He seemed to be frightened and was about to fall down.
A figure rushed out quickly, straightened her up, covered her mouth, and put a cold dagger against her neck.
A gloomy and threatening voice came: "Shut up, don't make a sound, otherwise..."
Tears hung on her curved eyelashes, and she blinked in agreement.
Han Ting let go of Xu Jinyi, covered his chest with one hand, his face distorted, as if he was enduring great pain.
But the hand holding the dagger did not let go, and it even trembled slightly because of the severe pain, and it cut a bloody line on Xu Jinyi's neck.
Xu Jinyi stared at him blankly, then suddenly spoke, his tone filled with joy and aggrieved expression: "Brother!"
"Brother, you broke your promise. You said you would say goodbye to me when you left. Why didn't you wait for me to come back?"
"Brother, you're so cruel. You've been gone for ten years and you still said you would protect me."
His eyeballs slid down one by one: "Brother, you want to kill Little Pepper, right? Brother, you want to bully Little Pepper, right?"
Han Ting calmed himself down and stared at the face in front of him. It was the same childish face he remembered from ten years ago.
He hurriedly moved the dagger a few inches away from her, but his guard was still not completely down.
"Prove it! How can you prove you're Pepper?"
Perhaps Lian Han Ting didn't realize that he actually believed it about 70% in his heart, but in his current position, too many people wanted to kill him, so he had to be cautious.
Xu Jinyi's eyes flashed with hurt: "Brother, don't you believe me?"
Seeing that Xu Jinyi didn't answer the question, Han Ting's eyes became sharp: "Take off your coat."
Xu Jinyi was quite drunk, otherwise he would have been furious and started cursing after hearing this.
But now the only person in her eyes was her brother whom she hadn't seen for ten years, so when she heard Han Ting's words, she immediately understood what Han Ting meant.
"Brother, do you want to see my blood mole?" Xu Jinyi untied the red belt and carelessly opened and pulled off the outer dress, revealing half of her shoulders.
"Look, brother, I'm just a little hot pepper. I'm not lying." Xu Jin pointed at a bright red blood mole on the left side of his chest and pouted.
Han Ting's Adam's apple rolled, his heart was beating wildly, and his eyes were fixed on the blood mole on Xu Jinyi's chest.
His heart, which had been dead for many years, seemed to come alive. It had been ten years. The separation without saying goodbye had made him regret for ten years.
If he had insisted on waiting back then, he would have found her long ago.
But now, it's too late, it's too late.
When he came to his senses, Han Ting's face flushed, because Xu Jinyi was so charming and attractive at this moment.
The fair and plump body came into view. In the dim candlelight, it was hazy yet clear, making it impossible to take your eyes off it.
The small bellyband could not cover her beautiful figure at all, and the thin rope seemed unable to bear the weight, leaving a red mark on her neck.
The waist is soft and slender, showing off the curves, and the straight and white long legs are even more tempting.
Before Han Ting asked her to take off her clothes, he had never thought that the scene would be like this. He always thought that women's dresses were long tube tops with several layers underneath.
I never thought that her skirt would be designed like this.
"Brother, do you believe me?" Xu Jinyi took two steps forward and approached him.
Han Ting's breathing became a little disordered, and it was unclear whether it was because of the pain in his body or something else.
He had already put away the dagger. Knowing that she was Pepper, the wariness in his eyes faded.
"Get dressed."
Han Ting's voice was hoarse, and after he finished speaking, he sat on the ground, holding onto the table.
Xu Jinyi fastened his clothes hastily and squatted down curiously: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Where does it hurt?"
Even though he was drunk, Xu Jinyi did not forget his medical skills. He grabbed his hand and began to take his pulse.
"Greedy Gu! Who is it? Who wants my brother's life?"
Han Ting looked at her in surprise: "Gu? I was infected with Gu, not poison?!"
Xu Jinyi said seriously, "It is a Gu, but it is also poisonous. However, compared to chronic poisons, the Gu in your body is the most deadly."
"The Greedy Gu, also known as the Cruel Gu, will slowly eat away at your internal organs once it enters your body, causing you to suffer and die bit by bit."
"A person who is poisoned by the Gu can clearly sense where they are being eaten, but they are powerless to do anything about it. The Gu worms will continue to eat until they are the only one left. That's why it's also called a residual Gu."
Another wave of severe pain came. Han Ting clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and sweat broke out profusely, showing that he was in great pain.
Xu Jinyi shook his dizzy head, took out the golden needle from his waist, and put Han Ting on the ground.
He was stripped naked in no time, exposing a large area of his chest. Before Han Ting could react, a handful of golden needles were steadily spread all over his chest.
As the golden needle fell, the severe pain in the body was relieved instantly until it disappeared. Han Ting looked at the little girl intently.
"Little Pepper..."
"Brother, don't say anything. I'm waiting for the insect to show up, find its location, and force it out. Otherwise, as it grows bigger and eats faster, it will be difficult to force it out with the added power."
Han Ting had no idea how the little girl had learned such medical skills during the ten years they had been apart. She was even better than the imperial physicians in the palace.
The only doctor in the entire Imperial Hospital who could use the golden needles was Doctor Jin, and he didn't even notice the poisonous insect in his body.
This shows how profound the little girl's medical attainments are.
"Found it."
"Brother, bear with it." After saying that, Xu Jinyi pulled out the dagger from his waist, cut a small wound on his lower right abdomen, then cut his finger and let a drop of blood drip out.
When Han Ting saw her holding the dagger, he didn't think of stopping her. When he saw her slashing herself with the dagger, he didn't think of dodging.
But when he saw her cut her finger again, his pupils contracted quickly and he even grabbed her hand.
As Xu Jinyi's blood dripped onto the wound, the poisonous insects under the skin seemed to be tempted and crawled quickly towards the wound.
Xu Jinyi's eyes became fierce, and when the poisonous insect crawled out, he threw out the gold.
Han Ting also followed her gaze and turned his head to look at the fat and bloody insect.
At this time, the insect was nailed to the ground by the golden needles, and its fat body twisted violently, trying to break free from the restraints.
Xu Jinyi took out a bottle of medicine and dripped it on the insect.
With just one drop, the insect turned into a pool of blood under Han Ting's gaze and seeped into the ground.
If Han Ting had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed that it was a poisonous insect that had tortured him for so long.
He always thought it was poison. Even Shangguan Yu didn't find out that he was poisoned. He just thought it was some kind of powerful poison that was corroding his internal organs and causing pain.
If he hadn't met the little girl, he would never have known how he died!
