'Umm where am I?' Fu Qi Hong opened his eyes before squinting them. His vision was blurred and he had to close and open his eyes more than three tis before he could see what was going on. When he saw Mo Qiang sitting on top of him as if she were straddling him, his face turned red and he remarked, "Miss Mo, I never thought that you were this bold."
Mo Qiang, who was trying to save his life : "..."
A nerve twitched in her forehead as Mo Qiang helplessly said, "Your Highness, please don't speak. I am trying to concentrate. The poison in your body is problematic and I am having trouble extracting it."
Only then did Fu Qi Hong realise that his body was unusually numb and he couldn't even lift a finger. What happened to him? Because his entire body was getting more and more numb, his head felt light and loose as if it were detached from his shoulders.
He couldn't even recall what was going on?
First, he was caught by the assassins and then Mo Qiang rescued him before bringing him here to save Fu Beichou. And then —
"Stop!" When Fu Qi Hong realised what Mo Qiang was doing, his eyes popped wide out of their sockets and he glared at the woman. "Let go of ; have you forgotten that you have a family?"
Though he was touched by Mo Qiang's decision to save him, Fu Qi Hong could not let her die for him. She had a family. She was the mother of two kids; he couldn't watch her die!
In the past, he would have never let such a thing make him feel guilty; if anything, he would have thought that this was the sign of a woman's complete devotion to him but not anymore!
Fu Qi Hong knew that Mo Qiang loved her family and he also knew that the two kids needed their mother. If he died, his mother and father would be upset, and his sister would definitely look for the person who was behind this sche, but they wouldn't lose their minds. Nor would their lives get ruined.
But Mo Qiang was different; she was the pillar of the Mo family. Since Fu Qi Hong had taken that family as his own, he couldn't see them get ruined. It was a slow process but he had gotten used to those annoying rs as well; he dared not see them turning widowers because of him.
"Miss Qiang, can you not hear ?" he questioned again when Fu Qi Hong saw that Mo Qiang was not listening to him. He had no idea what kind of trick she was using but she was actually absorbing all the poison from his body within her.
The consequences of her actions were not light either; her entire face was covered with popping nerves that looked like they were going to explode at any mont. Her skin was turning an ugly shade of blue with greenish veins pressed against her skin. It made her look hideous and terrifying.
What was even more scary was that Mo Qiang clearly looked like she was in so much pain that she was about to fall unconscious.
"SHUT UP!" Mo Qiang, who was trying her best to grit her teeth and continue extracting the poison, felt annoyed when she heard Fu Qi Hong's continuous nagging. "You are making it so damn difficult for to concentrate."
"Sorry… oh. Wait —" Fu Qi Hong looked at Mo Qiang with a looming and furious expression as he questioned harshly, "Did you just yell at ? The prince of the nation?? Even my royal mother never yelled at … are you saying that you are better and more powerful than the Empress?"
As soon as he began speaking, Mo Qiang felt her back get covered with sweat. She imdiately shook her head and stated, "You are mistaken, your highness. Maybe it's because of the effects of poison that you thought I was yelling at you. How can I dare to do sothing that even the Empress didn't dare to do?"
"Don't lie to . Lying to royalty is a cri worthy of execution."
"I am sorry but it's really painful." Mo Qiang apologised as she tried to coax the riled-up r. "I am trying my best here but it's not getting any easier—ACK!"
She coughed out a mouthful of blood, which dyed her already red lips even more red.
However, even then she didn't stop extracting the poison from Fu Qi Hong's body. Seeing this, the r wanted to push the woman away and stop her but his body was too tired. It was numb and cold. His own body felt like it didn't belong to him.
Mo Qiang—why are you trying so hard to save ? Fu Qi Hong wanted to question this woman. Did she really like him? Or was she saving him because she thought it was her responsibility?
BANG!
Han Xiaorui coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood on the floor; the second her back hit the wall heavily. She raised her head and looked at Mo Xifeng, who was following her closely. Even though her body was covered with scars, the woman stared at her like a demon that had crawled out of hell.
"Mo Xifeng! Have you lost your mind?" Han Xiaorui knew that Mo Xifeng was crazy but she never thought that she was as crazy as her mother. She didn't care about her injuries and only knew one thing and that was—annihilate the enemy!
Mo Xifeng raised her arm and pointed the tip of her cha sword at Han Xiaorui. She said to her, "You betrayed the nation. As a S-knight, it's my responsibility to kill you." Her duty was what she lived for and if it ant to die, then she would do it too!
Her duty was to protect her family. And she would rather go down doing it than let her family be hard.
"You—" Han Xiaorui knew that there was no way she could take this woman down alone. Since that was the case —
