Since Young Master Ou had intervened, Chef Li could only thank his master for his great favor and submit to his will. However, this concerned the lives of his entire family. Despite his fear of Young Master Ou, he still hesitantly risked his life to make a desperate attempt.
Chef Li knelt devoutly before Young Master Ou, his face showing fear yet trying to remain calm, pleading earnestly.
"No, Young Master Ou, my daughter is dead, and besides, we have very strict rules in our area. Young Master Ou, I know you care about me, but please, for the sake of the ten years I've served the Ou family, please listen to me, please?" Facing the cold-hearted Young Master Ou, Chef Li was clearly intimidated by his authority, and his voice trembled, his confidence severely lacking.

He cried his heart out, looking pitiful in hopes of gaining Ou Shao's sympathy.
"Ignorant! What's the point of all this talk! Is human life more important, or is it more important to talk about things? Xiaoyi, hurry up and stab him!" Ou Shao's cold voice questioned him, and the sharp, cruel look in his dark eyes, like that of a hawk, frightened Chef Li into speechless.
Despite feeling utterly wronged, he dared not disobey Young Master Ou's orders any longer. In the eyes of their servants, Young Master Ou was their god; who among them would dare to defy their god?
When Butler Zhao saw that Young Master Ou had intervened, and that Young Master Ou's usually calm and collected face was so cold and sinister, the chilling aura emanating from him made him unable to open his mouth.
Chef Li was so frightened that he shuddered and let go of Luo Xiaoyi's hand. Luo Xiaoyi reacted quickly, aimed precisely, and stabbed hard into Li Qianrui's forehead!
Luo Xiaoyi's expression was extremely solemn. She seemed to be carrying a heavy responsibility, as if she were on the back of Mount Tai. She was completely focused on controlling the force and depth of the needle, as well as the direction of the needle as it entered the head. The direction could not deviate in the slightest, it had to be as fine as a millimeter. If there was any slight mistake, not only would it not save the person, but it would also immediately puncture the blood vessels in the brain, causing the patient to bleed from all seven orifices.
She twirled the silver needle between her fingers, slowly rotating it as it gradually penetrated Li Qianrui's brain. The dangerous action terrified everyone present, who stared intently at Luo Xiaoyi's hand, at the patient's reaction, and even more so at that long, terrifying silver needle.
As the silver needles were slowly inserted, Chef Li felt as if a demon had choked him, making it hard for him to breathe. He stared in horror, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. He was terrified of seeing his daughter bleed from all seven orifices. If that happened, his whole family would suffer a terrible fate and die!
Suddenly, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, which soaked through his t-shirt. His nose stung, and tears welled up in his eyes. "God help me, God help me! Please don't let my family suffer like this. Please let my daughter come back to life!"
Butler Zhao watched intently, his eyes glued to the breathtaking scene. He gripped his clothes tightly, barely daring to utter a sound. He thought to himself, "Why does Luo Xiaoyi have to be so reckless? How can someone who's already dead be brought back to life?"
What if she really stabbed Li Qianrui until she bled from all seven orifices? That would be a terrible sight! If that happened, how could Chef Li possibly let her off the hook? She's really just looking for trouble!
By then, Chef Li won't be grateful to her; he'll hate her. Why bother? Butler Zhao simply couldn't understand it.
Mo Nan watched quietly. He had never seen anything like bringing the dead back to life before. Even as an outsider, it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous in this situation. His heart was pounding as he waited intently for the outcome.
Ou Shao's deep black eyes, like those of an eagle, silently surveyed everything. Could Luo Xiaoyi really bring this person, who had already been sentenced to death, back to life? He waited with bated breath.
At this moment, the silver needle in Luo Xiaoyi's hand had already been inserted into Li Qianrui's brain, leaving only a very short spot, so that the silver needle could be easily pulled out later.
Everyone stared silently at Li Qianrui's deathly pale face. The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. A tense atmosphere permeated the air, making everyone feel as if they were lacking oxygen, which was incredibly suffocating.
Li Qianrui remained motionless, lying there quietly as if she were peacefully asleep, but she had stopped breathing.
It turned out that everyone had just had a false alarm; Li Qianrui wouldn't bleed from all seven orifices, which would be terrifying; however, it was impossible for her to come back to life.
"Young Madam, was it because Chef Li delayed you and caused you to miss the best time for acupuncture that the patient showed no reaction?" Mo Nan interjected at the right moment. As someone who served Young Master Ou, he was naturally a shrewd person, and he wanted to save face for Luo Xiaoyi.
At this moment, Young Master Ou glanced at Chef Li, who immediately turned pale with fright and lowered his head heavily. He blamed himself, wondering if he had really made a mistake. Had he delayed the opportunity to save his daughter?
"No, although it took a little longer, I still managed to insert the silver needle steadily in the last thirty seconds of the allotted ten minutes. Strange? Why didn't the patient react?"
She didn't say what came next. Even if it was a good reaction, or the worst reaction, shouldn't there have been some reaction? Luo Xiaoyi fell into deep thought, racking her brains trying to figure out where she had gone wrong.
Mo Nan immediately frowned. Why was this young mistress so honest? Did she have to tell the truth about this?
"Xiaoyi, you've done your best. Don't be too sad. It's just that Chef Li's daughter wasn't blessed. Who told him to obstruct her in every way? Chef Li, you should take good care of your daughter's funeral arrangements. Xiaoyi, let's go." Ou Zihan put his large hand on her shoulder.
Ou Zihan had only intended to let Luo Xiaoyi give it a try; how could a dead person be brought back to life? He simply wanted to fulfill Luo Xiaoyi's wish to save someone.
“Young Madam, Young Master Ou is right. It’s possible that we were delayed and that’s why things turned out this way. Let’s go.” Butler Zhao quickly followed Young Master Ou’s advice and persuaded Luo Xiaoyi.
Luo Xiaoyi didn't listen to anyone. She thought for a few seconds, then suddenly leaned over Li Qianrui's heart, placed one hand on it, and clenched her other fist, pounding it hard. After a few punches, the hand she was using to support her heart became red and swollen.
Upon seeing this, Ou Zihan immediately felt sorry for Luo Xiaoyi. He quickly pulled away Luo Xiaoyi's hand that was cushioning his fist and placed his own large palm on top of it, letting Luo Xiaoyi's fist come down!
Ou Zihan said urgently, "I'll smash it."
"No, your strength is too great; it might backfire," Luo Xiaoyi said with an unusually serious expression.
As Luo Xiaoyi continued smashing, Li Qianrui's pale face showed her eyelashes trembling like cicada wings!
