Chapter 264 Li Yan is poisoned
Just when Li Yan felt relaxed and a little sleepy, he noticed a cold wind causing the candlelight not far away to sway.
"Who..." Before Li Yan could finish her words, her mouth and nose were covered tightly.
Afterwards, Li Yan inhaled a strange smell and lost consciousness.
The lights in the room went out normally.
Dongxue, who was guarding outside the door, was relieved when she saw the light in the lady's room go out.
Then he yawned, stretched, and left.
When Li Yan woke up, she found herself in a dark house. Her hands were tied behind her back and her mouth was blocked with a rag.
The house was very dark, with only a small window a few feet high. The moonlight from outside slanted in on her body, but it was not enough to illuminate the distant surroundings around her.
Li Yan tried to push the rag with her tongue and found that it was not stuffed tightly, so she pushed hard and the rag fell out of her mouth.
"You are quite smart." A deep male voice came from the darkness, shocking Li Yan.
"Who are you? How dare you kidnap the young lady of the Shangshu Mansion, the future concubine of the second prince? Do you want to live?" Li Yan suppressed the panic in her heart and tried to scare the other party away with her identity.
"Hehe, I'm really not afraid." The male voice came again, and it sounded a little closer to him.
Li Yan was so frightened that her heart contracted.
"Don't come over here, I'm calling for help." Li Yan sat on the ground and took a few steps back, but he realized that the ground seemed to be covered with straw.
"You're calling for help? Hahaha, no one will hear you even if you call for help." As the man's mocking voice got closer, Li Yan finally saw the man.
However, the man had his face covered and was dressed in black, so it was hard to tell what he was doing.
"If you let me go, I will pay double whatever the person who hired you offers." Li Yan fluttered her eyelashes and started the deal right away.
In her mind, she must have offended someone, and that person must have hired the man in front of her.
"Are you really not afraid? Or are you pretending?" Huang San squatted directly opposite Li Yan, looking at this woman who was already a prisoner. He was unusually calm from beginning to end.
This was a huge difference from the people he had met before.
When the people who had been knocked unconscious by him woke up, they were so scared when they saw him that they burst into tears and begged him.
And this Li Yan was talking to me calmly from beginning to end, and even tried to bribe me.
"Is being afraid useful?" Li Yan raised his head and looked at Huang San in the dark with a questioning tone.
"That's indeed useless." Huang San was stunned, shocked that Li Yan actually asked him a question, so he answered subconsciously.
"That's all. People like you kidnap people just for money or sex. When I woke up just now, there was nothing wrong with my body. Obviously, it's not for sex, then it's for money."
Li Yan expressed his guess with some certainty.
"Heh, you guessed wrong." Huang San couldn't stand Li Yan's expression, so he directly slapped her in the face.
"Wrong? What's going on? If you wanted to kill me, I wouldn't wake up." Li Yan was stunned, with surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Why should I tell you? Just enjoy yourself tonight." Huang San saw Li Yan's surprised expression and stood up with satisfaction.
Thinking that the poison he had administered was almost effective, he clapped his hands and walked out.
"What do you mean?" Li Yan felt a little panicked when she saw the man was about to leave and heard what he said.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Let me untie the rope for you. It's a pity to ruin such a beautiful face."
Huang San was about to leave, but suddenly turned around and covered her mouth and nose again. He waited until Li Yan fainted again, then he untied the rope, locked the door, and left.
The sect leader said that he wanted to teach Li Yan a lesson. The most profound lesson for a girl would definitely be to touch her face.
When Huang San thought of this, a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
"It's so itchy, why is it so itchy?" Li Yan was awakened by a piercing itch. She didn't know why her face was so itchy.
He reached out his hand to scratch it a few times, but in the moonlight, he saw that his fingernails were covered in flesh and blood.
It seems that when I was unconscious, I was scratching my face unconsciously.
Even though his face was obviously scratched, Li Yan didn't feel any pain at all. Instead, he felt itchy, extremely itchy.
It felt like an itch deep inside my flesh, and scratching my face wouldn't help. More importantly, I had no way of controlling my hands from scratching.
No, I can't keep scratching myself like this. My wedding is in a few days. If my face is disfigured, all my plans for the future will be impossible.
When Li Yan thought of this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
Since he was still scratching unconsciously when he was unconscious just now, it means that letting himself fall asleep is not a good idea.
Her hands were still scratching her face unconsciously, and her long nails, which she was so proud of, had now become a weapon that ruined her appearance.
Afterwards, Li Yan endured the nausea and stuffed her nails into her mouth, biting off each nail one by one with her teeth.
But while biting his right hand, he scratched his face with his left hand, and while biting his left hand, he scratched his face with his right hand.
When all the nails are bitten off, because they are bitten by the teeth, the edges of the nails are not round, but have a jagged feeling.
A feeling of annoyance emerged in Li Yan's mind. This still wouldn't work.
There is no mirror here, so I have no idea what my face looks like, but I can tell from the bloody fingers that it's not good.
Thinking of the importance of her appearance, Li Yan scratched her face with one hand and groped on the ground with the other.
Finally, she touched something hard, and when she picked it up, she found it was actually a stone.
Li Yan looked at the stone, then at his own hands, and finally made up his mind.
"Ah..." A heart-wrenching scream startled Huang San who was outside the door.
His own poison would never have such an effect. The sect leader had told him not to kill him, so he still had to go and take a look.
When Huang San opened the door, the scene he saw made his pupils shrink even though he was a ruthless killer.
Under the moonlight, Li Yan, with blood all over his face, held a stone in his right hand and smashed it hard on his left fingers with a fierce look in his eyes.
The pain was so severe that I stopped scratching my face for a short while.
Between appearance and left hand, she chose appearance without hesitation.
After all, that is something that can change your destiny, and it must not be disfigured!
"What a ruthless person..." Huang San was moved again when he saw that Li Yan still wanted to hit him. The fingers on her left hand were now bloody, but she could still continue.
Thinking of the sect leader's words, Huang San finally started to think. He couldn't let this go wrong.
So he walked forward and continued to knock Li Yan unconscious. Under the moonlight, Li Yan's face was covered in blood.
Huang San thought that it was almost time, so after detoxifying her, he sent Li Yan back before dawn without anyone noticing.
Early in the morning, Dongxue walked into Li Yan's bedroom with warm water.
"Miss, it's daybreak, hurry up and wash up." Dong Xue said as she approached Li Yan who was lying on the bed. However, after seeing Li Yan's face clearly, she was so scared that she dropped the wooden basin in her hand to the ground.
"Ah!" Dongxue's scream mixed with the dull sound of the wooden basin falling finally woke up the sleeping Li Yan.
She raised her left hand to lift the quilt, but felt a piercing pain.
Li Yan opened his eyes instantly and lay down in front of the bronze mirror without even having time to put on his shoes.
Inside was a face covered with blood scabs, terrifying and creepy.
The pain in my hands is still there, last night was not a dream.
"What's wrong?" The guards outside heard Dongxue's cry and gathered directly at Li Yan's door, as if they were about to break in the next moment.
"Nothing." Li Yan calmed down and glared at Dong Xue fiercely.
The cold eyes and terrifying face made Dongxue shiver and lower her head.
"Keep this a secret. I'm getting married in a few days. If you dare to spread it, I'll kill you. Call my uncle over here."
Li Yan ordered in a cold voice that her uncle was the doctor in the mansion and now only her uncle could save her.
In the following days, Li Yan stayed in his own yard and never went out again.
