"That's right, they have always been very low-key and secretive. The world only knows that the crescent moon mark is their symbol, and nothing else. The Zhan Yue I just mentioned is the top assassin of the Dark Night Pavilion, who is most skilled in using poison and hidden weapons. It's an honor for this girl to have exchanged blows with him. But I do admire her; she's still alive. She must be quite a remarkable person!"
As she spoke, a burning light flashed in Yan Qianhe's eyes. Then she reached out and pinched Zhuque's cheek, leaving Li Chang'an, who was standing to the side, dumbfounded. He immediately felt goosebumps all over his body.
She really is a very eccentric woman!
After silently grumbling to himself, Li Chang'an asked the question that had been troubling him the most: "Is there any way to cure this poison?"
"I don't have the antidote."
Yan Qianhe replied with a half-smile.
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an became nervous again, and his expression turned somewhat grim.
She looked worriedly at Zhuque's still pale and ashen face, unable to accept what Yan Qianhe had just said.
Is even our last hope about to be shattered?
Looking at Li Chang'an's sorrowful and disappointed eyes, Feng Beichuan felt a pang of pain in his heart. He then turned displeased to Yan Qianhe, who remained calm and composed, and said coldly, "Since you can't cure the poison, then leave! Chang'an, don't be sad. Even if I have to search the entire capital, I will find someone who can cure this poison! If all else fails, we'll just storm the Dark Night Pavilion and demand an explanation!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an's eyes reddened. She stared intently at Zhuque and clenched her fists.
"I only said there was no antidote, not that the person couldn't be saved. Why are you taking it out on me like this? That's really going too far. How can you ask for help like this? I even came all this way in the middle of the night, and it's all for nothing!"
Yan Qianhe spoke with some annoyance, and then turned to leave.
Li Chang'an's expression immediately changed, and he quickly stepped forward to stop the other party, asking incredulously, "You mean, you have a way to cure the poison?"
"That's natural, it's just that some people seem to underestimate my abilities!"
Yan Qianhe raised an eyebrow and replied with an arrogant look on her face. As she spoke, she crossed her arms and glared at Feng Beichuan, still feeling extremely annoyed.
She had never been treated like this before!
"Go apologize to them right now!"
Li Chang'an turned his head and glared at Feng Beichuan, then lowered his voice and said irritably.
Feng Beichuan immediately felt extremely embarrassed and couldn't help but curse inwardly, realizing that he had spoken too harshly too soon.
However, out of pride, Feng Beichuan really couldn't bring himself to say it, and the two remained deadlocked, leaving Li Chang'an stuck in the middle, anxiously waiting.
These two really don't care about Suzaku's life or death.
Li Chang'an was so angry that he wanted to beat Feng Beichuan, that guy who was just being cheeky, to a pulp.
"Miss Chizuru, this is a matter of life and death, please don't treat it lightly. I apologize to you on his behalf, and Suzaku's life is in your hands!"
After saying that, Li Chang'an nodded slightly to Yan Qianhe, his tone very sincere.
Seeing the other party's submissive demeanor, Yan Qianhe's expression showed a slight surprise, but then she smiled gently and said, "Why is Your Highness Chang'an acting like this? You didn't say those words, so why are you apologizing?"
After saying this, she turned to look at Feng Beichuan beside her, as if she were referring to something.
At this moment, Feng Beichuan was also extremely distressed. He had never seen Li Chang'an so humble before.
There's a saying that a real man takes responsibility for his actions, and Feng Beichuan absolutely cannot allow Li Chang'an to apologize on his behalf just to smooth things over while ignoring the consequences.
"Your Highness Chang'an, you can rest assured that I will definitely save this person, but in addition, I also need an explanation for what just happened."
Yan Qianhe spoke calmly, her tone still gentle and humble, yet it concealed a sharp edge that was hard to ignore.
Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan felt even more furious. What a unreasonable person!
Then, he gritted his teeth and said, word by word, "Okay, I apologize to you. It was my fault just now. I shouldn't have said those things. Please forgive me."
Hearing Feng Beichuan's very stiff tone, Yan Qianhe couldn't help but chuckle. Although she knew that he wasn't speaking sincerely, she wasn't angry.
Those captivating eyes darted around, a sly glint flashing within them, before she spoke again: "Alright, then I'll reluctantly accept your apology, but I have one more condition..."
Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan couldn't help but grit her teeth inwardly. She felt that this person was taking advantage of her kindness, but she was helpless against him. In the end, she could only reluctantly say, "Just tell me your conditions. I'll agree to anything except marrying you."
Upon hearing this, Yan Qianhe snorted coldly, then rolled her eyes at Feng Beichuan and said irritably, "Tch, marry me? You wish! You're not worthy!"
With just a few words, Feng Beichuan was rendered speechless. Li Chang'an, who was listening to their conversation, couldn't help but feel annoyed, thinking to himself that these people's mouths were all incredibly venomous.
"Okay, then tell me what the conditions are?"
Feng Beichuan agreed very readily.
"My request is simple: just give me a chance. If there's ever a day when I need you to do something, you must agree, no matter how difficult it is. You're not allowed to refuse."
After saying that, Yan Qianhe raised his right hand and said, "Let's make a vow with a high five, and no one is allowed to go back on their word."
"Isn't this blatantly an unfair contract?"
Feng Beichuan couldn't help but frown. He suddenly felt that this woman was even more terrifying than he had imagined. He never expected that she would make such a demand of him.
Feng Beichuan began to secretly ponder what would happen if he agreed to her request and she asked him to do something that crossed the line.
Yan Qianhe ignored the protests and simply extended her hand in front of Feng Beichuan without saying another word.
Seeing that the person had no room for negotiation, Feng Beichuan finally had no choice but to extend his hand and obediently give her three high fives.
