Mingjue felt a dull pain in his chest, his body trembled slightly, and soon relaxed.

Bite it! As long as Yao Jia can vent her anger, he would be willing to tear off that piece of meat.

Through the fabric, Yao Jia didn't know whether she had bitten into the flesh or not, but she didn't let go anyway. Only when her gums felt sore did she let go reluctantly and looked up at Ming Jue.

"Don't you feel any pain?"

Mingjue lowered his head and met a pair of red peach blossom eyes. The watery eyes were lively and like a pool of spring water, which immediately made him intoxicated and unable to extricate himself.

My heart started beating wildly involuntarily, so loud in this quiet room.

Mingjue smiled slightly, shook his head, and gently wiped the tears from Yaojia's face, his voice still gentle: "As long as you calm down, I won't feel any pain."

When Yao Jia heard these words, the resentment in her heart instantly disappeared without a trace.

She looked at Mingjue, her eyes flickering with complex lights, of emotion, guilt, and a hint of attachment that she herself hadn't even noticed.

She knew very well how Mingjue felt about her, but she couldn't afford it, she really couldn't.

Everyone in the Nangong family has a short life. Mingjue is a stubborn person and not as strong as Langyue and the others. What should he do if she is gone one day?

Push Mingjue away from him.

"Ming Jue..." Yao Jia bit her lip, a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes, "Can I take your blood now?"

Mingjue nodded slightly, asked Yaojia to sit down, and walked to the table to get the tools.

After pulling Yao Jia's sleeve up to her upper arm, she tied her arm tightly with a cow tendon band and took out a half-inch long hollow silver needle.

"Don't look at it. Close your eyes." He paused and added, "It will hurt."

Yao Jia didn't think it was a big deal. How painful could it be to draw blood? She urged, "Hurry up."

Mingjue sighed and inserted the silver needle into the blood vessel in Yaojia's arm little by little.

Yao Jia exclaimed suddenly.

Mingjue listened with a frown, but his hands did not waver at all.

When the silver needle has been pushed forward to a certain extent, quickly open the rubber band and collect the flowing blood into the jade bottle.

Yao Jia looked at her own bright red blood dripping out, feeling a little frightened. She turned her face away and tried not to look at it.

When the jade bottle was full, Mingjue carefully pulled out the silver needle and pressed with cotton to stop Yaojia's bleeding.

"I'll make some blood-replenishing medicine and send it to you later."

Yao Jia smiled, "It's just this little bit of blood, it really doesn't need to be repaired. This is not even as much as the blood I slashed Jin Mantang with just now. You just..."

Meeting Mingjue's slightly reproachful look, Yao Jia shut up awkwardly.

Seeing that the wound had stopped bleeding, he pulled his arm out of Mingjue's hand and said, "I have something else to do. I'll go back first. Thank you for your hard work these past two days."

After saying this, Yao Jia covered her arm and fled away from Ming Jue.

Along the way, Yao Jia kept her head down, looking at the wound on her arm where blood was coming from.

I thought to myself: The wound is only the size of a needle tip, Nangong Xiu Lan will definitely not be able to find it.

When any disciples saw her on the road, they would give way to her. But as soon as she turned the corner, she bumped into someone.

Yao Jia covered her arm as she had her blood drawn and then was bumped by someone. Although it didn't hurt, she was still a little angry.

Just when I was about to scold someone for being so blind, when I looked up, I saw Gu Xiyan's annoying smiling face.

Gu Xiyan smiled and steadied her body, "Jia Jia, why don't you look at people when you walk?"

Yao Jia rubbed her arm and snorted angrily, "This is my territory, I can walk however I want, but why are you here?"

Gu Xiyan touched his nose and smiled, "Didn't Jia Jia say she wanted to celebrate my birthday? Have you prepared a gift?"

Yao Jia smiled and said, "Isn't your birthday still a few days away?"

When Gu Xiyan heard this, he knew that Yao Jia had not prepared a birthday gift for him. He felt a little disappointed and his eyes became resentful when he looked at Yao Jia.

"Why didn't you prepare anything for me in advance? I am your fiancé after all, how could you be so careless? I was looking forward to what you would give me, but it turned out to be just wishful thinking."

Yao Jia gasped when she heard this, "Can you please have some shame? No one would ask for a gift in front of others, and I didn't say I wouldn't prepare it."

Gu Xiyan asked: "When will you be ready? Why not now? You have nothing to do anyway, why don't you go for a walk on the street with me?"

Yao Jia felt that it was still early. Nangong Xiu Lan was well now, and he would naturally take care of Tianxing Pavilion. She really didn't have anything to do, so she agreed.

The two of them walked out of Sanqing Temple and headed towards the street. Gu Xiyan was smiling all the way and turned his head to look at Yao Jia from time to time.

Yao Jia was annoyed by his staring at her, and when he looked at her again, she made a face at him that she thought was very ugly.

Gu Xiyan was stunned at first, then he held her face and kissed her, attracting everyone's attention.

"Jia Jia, you are so cute."

Yao Jia was convinced.

Gu Xiyan is really mentally ill.

She immediately pushed him away and said, "Have some shame, this is on the street."

Gu Xiyan held Yao Jia's hand and said, "I'm kissing my fiancée, it doesn't matter to them, they can watch if they want."

The people of Daxia are open-minded, and there is nothing wrong with kissing on the street.

But Yaojia still wanted to break off the engagement with him, and was naturally unhappy about being taken advantage of by him.

With a cold face, he said: "Stop calling me your fiancée."

"Why?"

"Why? I've been here for so long, but every time I sent a visiting card to your house, it was returned. Why do you think that is?"

Gu Xiyan couldn't believe his ears. He always thought that Yao Jia didn't want to see him, but he didn't expect that she would take the initiative to send a visiting card to his home.

"Jia Jia, if you want to come to my house, just come and find me directly. Why bother sending a visiting card?"

Yao Jia burst out laughing. This kid's train of thought was really amazing. "Gu Xiyan, this is not the point. The point is that the visiting card was returned by your parents."

Looking at Gu Xiyan's confused eyes, Yao Jia patiently explained, "Your parents are not satisfied with this marriage. Since they are not satisfied, why not..."

"As long as I'm satisfied, Jiajia, it's fine. Anyway, I'm going to go back to Kyoto with you in the future. We...we don't have to care..."

Yao Jia was choked by Gu Xiyan's words and glared at him, "Gu Xiyan, if your parents are really not satisfied with this marriage, why force it? A marriage without the blessing of your parents will definitely not be happy. Let's call off the marriage."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyan's face turned pale and he stared at Yao Jia with wide eyes, as if he had heard something incredible.

"Jia Jia, you...what nonsense are you talking about? That's a marriage granted by His Majesty. Even if my parents don't agree, there's nothing we can do..."

He stepped forward and took Yao Jia's hand, and said seriously: "Jia Jia, don't be sad, I won't cancel the engagement."

She's not sad at all.

Yao Jia looked at his expression and sighed. It seemed that she couldn't reach an agreement with Gu Xiyan. It would be better to use his birthday to discuss it with his parents.

I happened to see a jewelry store in front of me, and thinking that I still had to prepare a birthday gift for him, I shook off his hand and walked forward.

Gu Xiyan followed behind Yao Jia and kept trying to hold her hand, but was ruthlessly pushed away by Yao Jia every time.
