Ruan Xiaojiu quickly came to Di Jingchen's side, pressed his palm directly against Di Jingchen's back, and the violent airflow in Di Jingchen's body seemed to be summoned, rushing towards Ruan Xiaojiu's palm on Di Jingchen's back, and was sucked back into his body by Ruan Xiaojiu.

Ruan Xiaojiu felt the power flowing through her body, and felt that the domineering power was even more domineering than when she had exerted it. After entering Ruan Xiaojiu's body, it was like a river merging into the sea, merging with her own dark power and disappearing.

As for that bit of poison, it couldn't cause any waves in Ruan Xiaojiu's body.

Di Jingchen's originally pale face gradually turned rosy.

"Huh." Di Jingchen let out a long breath. Just now, he really thought he was going to be blown up by that force.

He turned his head to look at Ruan Xiaojiu, whose forehead was still covered with a layer of fine sweat, and his eyes were sincere, "You saved me again this time, thank you so much." The more he said thank you, the less awkward it became, and he said it naturally.

Ruan Xiaojiu touched her nose. This time, it really wasn't her who saved him, but her carelessness that caused him to suffer for no reason. But could she say that? Of course not.

"Well, you were in great danger this time. Remember my life-saving grace, and don't forget to pledge your love to me in the future."

Di Jingchen's expression froze, and then he said, "Except for this, I agree to everything else." He only felt gratitude towards Ruan Xiaojiu, and had no romantic feelings for her, so he could not agree to this condition.

Ruan Xiaojiu had been rejected by men many times, but she had always been overbearing and domineering. Not willing? That didn't matter. Whether others were willing or not was not within her consideration. She used force to suppress them. If one time didn't work, she would do it twice. If two times didn't work, she would do it three times. If that didn't work, she would break their legs and see where they could go.

So when Ruan Xiaojiu heard Di Jingchen's refusal, he just smiled and didn't respond.

"You eat something first and I'll be back soon." After saying that, Ruan Xiaojiu left without even looking back.

When Di Jingchen saw Ruan Xiaojiu leaving, he smelled the sweat on his body, felt a little disgusted, frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then left the palace, flew to the stream outside the city, and took a quick bath.

Ruan Xiaojiu returned to her room and saw that Xiao Zeming was no longer there. She wondered who had untied him and let him go. However, she had come back to release him. Since he had left, she returned to Di Jingchen's room, sat at the table, poured herself a cup of tea, sipped it, and waited there.

Xiao Zeming was supported by his personal servant Xiao Si and returned to the yard. Just as he was about to go back to his room, Yun Yizhou called him, "Mr. Xiao, you didn't come home last night. What did you do?" As he spoke, he came to Xiao Zeming with interest and stood in front of him, blocking his way.

Xiao Zeming lowered his head and didn't want to talk to him too much. "Nothing." After that, he gestured for Xiao Si to go back to his room.

Wu Zhenkai was drinking tea silently beside the stone table, but his ears were perked up. He was also very curious about where Xiao Zeming had gone last night. The Ninth Prince's Mansion was not a place where one could enter and leave casually.

Xiao Si knew that his son was very weak and wanted to help him back to his room as soon as possible. The Ninth Prince was too cruel. He actually tortured his son like this just for serving him in bed.

Seeing Xiao Zeming looking sickly, Yun Yizhou wondered where he had been last night. Seeing Xiao Zeming ignoring him and walking past him like he didn't want to talk to him, he became furious. After all, they lived in the same courtyard and could look after each other if something happened. He sneaked out and came back with such a nonchalant attitude. Who was he trying to show off to? Who wasn't arrogant?
