Not following the expected path? Reborn and unexpectedly married to a demon.

Suddenly, there was silence in the room.

"Open the door," Jin Wuchen commanded.

Qingniao shook his head. He hadn't heard Miss Chu say to open the door yet, so he hadn't found a way to save his young master.

Jin Wuchen called out "Chu Luo", but no one answered him.

He kicked away the bluebird blocking his way, and just as he was about to kick the door open, the bluebird, clutching its chest, blocked the door again.

"Young Master Jin, you'll have to kill me before you open the door!"

Just as Jin Wuchen was about to make a move for Chu Luo.

A faint voice came from inside the house: "Jin Wuchen, I'm alright, open the door."

Jin Wuchen couldn't wait any longer. He cleaved the lock in two with a single palm strike and rushed into the house.

The room was a mess, with colorful snakes crawling everywhere.

Jin Wu's gaze swept across the room, and in a dimly lit corner, he saw Chu Luo huddled there, trembling.

Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were bloodshot, and there were bloodstains on her clothes like red plum blossoms, a shocking sight.

When the bluebird saw this scene, its legs felt like lead, and it couldn't take another step.

Miss Chu, who was originally so kind, beautiful and radiant, has now become like this.

It's heartbreaking to watch; what terrible things has he done?!

Young Master Jin deserved to kill him; he felt he truly deserved to die.

Jin Wuchen's heart clenched, and he forgot how he got to her.

He wanted to pick her up, but he didn't know where she was hurt and was afraid of hurting her.

"Chu Luo, I'm here," Jin Wuchen called to her softly.

"I'm scared, Jin Wuchen, I'm so scared."

Chu Luo buried her head in her arms and cried softly.

Jin Wuchen knew she was answering his question.

She gently comforted him, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I'll take you away. Please give me your hand."

Chu Luo raised her head slightly, and felt relieved the moment she saw Jin Wuchen.

His strength and gentleness gave her a great sense of security.

He stretched out his bloodied, bitten hand towards him.

Jin Wuchen carried her out and, after a thorough examination, held her in his arms, allowing Qingniao to treat her snake venom and wounds.

Once she had calmed down, she tried to get out of Jin Wuchen's arms to write down the prescription.

"Listen to me, don't move, tell me what to say and I'll write it down."

Jin Wuchen took the pen and wrote down everything she said, word for word.

The prescription was quickly written down. Chu Luo glanced at it and was captivated by his extremely elegant handwriting, which was a thousand times better than hers.

She reluctantly handed the prescription to Qingniao and said, "That's it, but the dosage of each medicine needs to be discussed further."

The prescription was sent to the group of renowned doctors, who then began to discuss it intensively.

The Fei family has all kinds of medicinal herbs, as well as a lot of white mice used for drug testing.

They discussed it while simultaneously trying it out.

Feeling deeply guilty, Qingniao brought several antidotes for snake venom, just in case.

Chu Luo had been bitten in two places on her hand.

One wound was on his thumb, and the other on his wrist, both covered in blood.

One place is poisonous, and the other is not.

Jin Wuchen sucked out the poison from the wound with his mouth, then took the medicine from Qingniao and treated Chu Luo's wound.

I was relieved after watching her take the antidote pill.

Chu Luo thought that if she didn't seek revenge or save people, she would at least have a healthy body.

Jin Wuchen wasn't of that status either; he was just an ordinary person. She would really like this considerate, strong, and reassuring husband.

"Miss Chu, I have arranged a room and hot water. The maids in the manor will help you rest in a little while."

Qingniao tried her best to make things easier for Chu Luo.

“I’ll stay here. Go and watch over your young master. If he doesn’t survive, I’ll personally send you to join him,” Jin Wuchen said.

"Don't do that, he was just following my orders."

Chu Luo knew he was angry with Qingniao and was afraid he would really kill Qingniao.

"If Fei Zhiyou can't be saved, even if I don't kill him, he will follow him in death."

Chu Luo sincerely exclaimed, "He is truly loyal."

Otherwise, Jin Wuchen would have killed him long ago.

"Go take a shower and change your clothes. They're testing the drug dosage; there's nothing you can do to help now."

Jin Wuchen carried her and walked effortlessly to the Fei family's hot spring pool.

They placed her beside the pond, where the maids were already lined up and waiting.

Jin Wuchen put her down and was about to leave, but as soon as Chu Luo's feet touched the ground, she was startled when she saw the sash next to her and hugged him again.

"Are you alright by yourself?" Jin Wuchen asked.

Chu Luo shook her head with difficulty, "I'm afraid not. Could you please be somewhere that you can appear and stay with me whenever I call you?"

"Okay, whatever you say."

Jin Wuchen understood her meaning and had a maid bring over a screen.

He waited for her outside the screen.

"Jin Wuchen, are you still there?" Chu Luo was a little scared when she suddenly couldn't see him.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here," Jin Wuchen replied with a smile, liking her dependence.

Chu Luo was relieved and quickly took a bath in the pool.

Once bitten, twice shy.

After taking a bath, she chose clothes that were plain and without any patterns or straps.

She wished she could forget what had happened today.

When Chu Luo came out, her face had regained its composure.

But Jin Wuchen could tell at a glance that this was not the case.

She was like a frightened bird, always on guard about her surroundings, and would panic at the slightest sound.

Although I don't know why she did this, she really went all out for Fei Zhiyou.

Is there something you want to ask?

Chu Luo looked at Jin Wuchen; there was something strange about what she was doing.

But in order to save Fei Zhiyou, he couldn't care less about anything else.

"In your heart, is Fei Zhiyou's life or death really that important?"

Chu Luo hadn't expected him to ask this question, and nodded, saying, "Although we haven't known each other for very long, he's someone I've decided can be a lifelong friend."

Jin Wuchen recalled the day the two of them met Chu Luo; Fei Zhiyou had made a good impression on Chu Luo from the very beginning.

Later, Chu Luo often spent time with Fei Zhi.

The two of them seemed to hit it off immediately, unlike him, who was on the verge of conflict from the very first meeting.

He actually wanted to know if Chu Luo would feel the same way about him if he and Fei Zhiyou were in different places.

But he immediately shook his head and said that he was Jin Wuchen and did not need anyone to save him.

He hoped that this would be a once-in-a-lifetime event for Chu Luo.

Seeing that Jin Wuchen didn't speak, Chu Luo didn't speak either.

She thought to herself that if it were Jin Wuchen lying in the hospital bed, she would have done the same thing.

But he immediately dismissed the idea, realizing that such a thought was not good.

She silently prayed, "Jin Wuchen, you must always be strong, invulnerable to swords and spears, and free from all disasters and hardships."

The two looked up at each other and smiled knowingly.

"Here's a little thing for you," Jin Wuchen said, clenching his fist and handing her something.

"What?" Chu Luo didn't know why he would suddenly give her something.

Jin Wuchen opened his clenched fist.

In his palm was a bead of moderate size, white with a flowing, cold blue light.

"This is a medicinal bead, useless to me. I just picked it up because it looked nice, so it's perfect for you."

Chu Luo took it and examined it closely. "Such exquisite beads, they're actually medicinal beads. What's their function?"

"At least you can temporarily avoid what you're afraid of now; there should be some other minor things as well."

Chu Luo was overjoyed to hear that this was such a treasure.

"But why is it only temporary?" Chu Luo asked with some regret.

"This bead only emits a special medicinal smell when it comes into contact with human blood, which can make those things avoid the bead and also avoid the owner of the blood."

The medicinal beads will eventually run out of potency. A drop of one person's blood can maintain the effect for a year or two without any problem, but the effect will be consumed very quickly if different people's blood is used together.

Chu Luo was delighted and said "Thank you." This thing was truly a treasure to her at that moment.

As she spoke, she prepared to tear open the bandaged wound and smear some blood on it.

Jin Wuchen grabbed him.

"No need. When I was treating your wound earlier, I dripped some of your blood on it. The beads without blood were an icy blue, and they looked better than they do now."

At that moment, Chu Luo felt that this bead was the most beautiful bead in the world, and immediately put it into her purse with great care.

I think it looks great right now.

Jin Wuchen laughed when he saw how protective she was of the pearl.

She protects her friends so much that she would even safeguard a single bead.

The two of them went to the place where several doctors were discussing drug trials.

There were the poisonous snakes she mentioned there.

The doctors were busy collecting venom for testing, and several venomous snakes were rendered motionless by the ordeal.

These people were all experts and were not afraid of snake venom, so they simply put the snake in the pond.

Chu Luo, who was terrified, clung tightly to Jin Wuchen.

Jin Wuchen took her hand and led her over, gesturing for her to try the beads.

Knowing that he was there, these things couldn't get close to her or hurt her in the slightest, so she boldly went over.

Just as Jin Wuchen had said, the snakes all tried to stay as far away from her as possible.

She breathed a sigh of relief; she wasn't so scared anymore.

"Thank you, it's so good to have you," Chu Luo whispered to Jin Wuchen.
