Jiang Ziqi said to herself, "No... What a pity, I should have brought a bottle with me."
She continued to glare at Yan Qingnuo, "After all, my boyfriend is the most jealous person!"
Well, she's started calling him "boyfriend" too.
Yan Qingnuo chuckled, the girl uttering "boyfriend" through gritted teeth. She patted the head of the girl who couldn't reach his shoulder, "Alright, he should be down by now."
He was referring to Lang Lang, the hunter.
Once outside the kitchen, the hunter appeared to be asleep, but he was actually unconscious. Jiang Ziqi kicked him with her hands on her hips, but he didn't wake up. "Alchemists are great, they're masters of trickery."
This was Yan Qingnuo's first time administering medication, and the dosage was a bit too high. He was afraid it wouldn't be enough to make her dizzy, so he didn't argue with her. But if it were someone else, Yan Qingnuo would never allow anyone to say such a thing. In his heart, alchemy was a sacred profession, but it was undeniable that some people didn't use it for good.
Jiang Ziqi regretted her words as soon as they left her mouth. She wanted to bite her tongue. What nonsense was she spouting? She knew perfectly well that Yan Qingnuo was a disciplined and meticulous person, yet…
Of course, today is an exception.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. Although she had invited him over because her mother had liked Yan Qingnuo a lot before she passed away, and he was probably the only person besides her who still cared about her mother, she still felt uncomfortable and awkward around him for no reason during the half-day they spent together. She would pick fights with him for no reason, but he would always patiently accept her "soft knives".
Old Geng's daughter panicked when she saw the man faint. She kept groaning and couldn't speak. Jiang Ziqi told her not to be afraid, but she was terrified and trembling all over.
"What's wrong with you? He's in this state. Now I can take his life to avenge you."
Old Geng's daughter shook her head vigorously.
Jiang Ziqi fell silent. "You wouldn't be so reluctant to let him die, would you?"
Old Geng's daughter shook her head and then nodded. Jiang Ziqi suddenly guessed what she meant, "Are you afraid there will be trouble after he dies?"
The fear in this woman's eyes ran deep.
Old Geng's daughter nodded frantically.
Yan Qingnuo guessed, "Does he have accomplices?"
Old Geng's daughter continued to nod.
Jiang Ziqi looked at Yan Qingnuo, who felt a little strange under her gaze. "What's wrong?"
Jiang Ziqi shook her head.
She thought to herself, if she encounters an accomplice, she'll be carrying two people, barely qualifying as a pro carrying a bronze player. She doesn't know if she can even manage it.
Yan Qingnuo then explained why he insisted on coming in with the hunter, "When I came here before, it wasn't these two people. Back then, my teacher and I came here to stay, and the people who opened the door were a pair of hunter brothers. They said that they were the only two brothers living here, and there was no one else. But today it's different..."
Jiang Ziqi understood what he meant; they should indeed investigate the anomaly, and they had already gained an innocent girl.
She asked Old Geng's daughter, "When were you brought here?"
The woman wrote on her hand: Five years
Five years ago.
She wrote again: walk, two, two
"Two more people?"
Old Geng's daughter nodded.
Jiang Ziqi looked at Yan Qingnuo, "Is it okay?"
Yan Qingnuo had no answer. He had no fighting skills, and if he used drugs, the person would be caught off guard. He was already regretting that he had rashly brought unknown danger to Jiang Ziqi. He suggested that they leave immediately, "Let's leave right away."
Jiang Ziqi, however, refused, saying, "I want to ask him questions."
"Ah Ye, can you defeat three hunters?"
Jiang Ziqi pouted, "One and a half, I guess."
Yan Qingnuo was stunned for a moment. So amazing?
