When Yin Tian grasped her hand, Yu Mingmiao’s body visibly shuddered.
Her cheeks flushed red, she hung her head low, not daring to look at Yin Tian, "It’s getting late, you should go to sleep too."
"I..."
"Go on, you know where my room is, right? Just go sleep there, I’ll be fine here on watch."
Hearing Yin Tian telling her to go sleep in his room, Yu Mingmiao’s cheeks grew even more rosy.
She hesitated in embarrassnt for a while, finally got up, and ran off towards the distance without daring to look back.
Yin Tian sat by the bed, stretching out his hand to gently caress Su Qinwei’s tender face.
Su Qinwei was the first fiancée he t after coming down from the mountains, and she was also the girl who had followed him the longest, accompanying him all the way from Su Hang to the Imperial Capital.
So, he always had a particularly special feeling for Su Qinwei.
Seeing Su Qinwei in such a state, his heart ached imnsely, wishing he could take all the pain she was suffering and place it upon himself.
Yin Tian gently grasped Su Qinwei’s small hand and sat there, just watching her face all night long.
The next morning.
Yin Tian’s phone rang.
The caller was Lu Zhengfeng.
"Mr. Yin, the goods have arrived in the Imperial Capital, and should reach your place in about half an hour."
"Alright, thank you for the trouble."
After hanging up the phone with Lu Zhengfeng, Sir Niu and Sir Li also called Yin Tian in succession, telling him that the items would be delivered soon.
Yin Tian sat quietly by the bed, waiting.
Suddenly, Su Qinwei’s body moved, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were full of red veins, showing that she didn’t rest well the previous night.
"Yin Tian..."
With her lips bitten, her pale face turned to Yin Tian, "It hurts..."
Seeing Su Qinwei’s pitiful look, Yin Tian’s brow furrowed, "Hang in there a little longer, in at most two hours, you’ll be fine."
Su Qinwei nodded weakly, but her body was still trembling slightly.
Heart-corroding Bone-softening Powder was a poison that caused the bones to lose all vitality and eventually beco like dry branches.
Su Qinwei had been poisoned for two days, the toxin having invaded into her bones, which was why the pain was so unbearable.
Watching Su Qinwei’s anguished expression, Yin Tian gritted his teeth, "I’ll first dislocate your spine to temporarily paralyze you. That way, you won’t feel the pain anymore, is that okay?"
Su Qinwei was startled. Dislocate her spine?
What kind of thod was that?
But she had unconditional trust in Yin Tian, and the pain in her body was too great, so she finally nodded her head.
Seeing this, Yin Tian carefully turned Su Qinwei’s body over, making her lie face down on the bed.
He then reached out and pinched her Dazhui acupoint.
With just a bit of force, there was a soft crack, and Su Qinwei imdiately felt her body go numb, unable to move.
At the sa ti, she could no longer feel the excruciating pain.
Yin Tian flipped Su Qinwei back around and looked at her, "How do you feel now?"
"No strength at all in my body..."
Su Qinwei spoke with difficulty, clearly not yet accustod to this state.
"Just wait, in a mont, once I have prepared the dicine for you, you’ll be alright."
Yin Tian spoke reassuringly.
Su Qinwei humd in response, unable to manage even the simplest nod.
Another half hour passed, and finally, there was the sound of a car outside the villa.
A glint appeared in Yin Tian’s eyes as he quickly left the villa and stood outside.
He saw three cars stop outside the villa.
The three drivers got out, looking at Yin Tian with utmost respect, "Is this Mr. Yin?"
"It’s ."
"With orders from boss Lu, Sir Li, and Sir Niu, we’ve co to deliver the dicine."
The three of them each opened the doors of their car trunks, and a rush of herbal fragrance emanated from within.
"Please, bring the dicine down," Yin Tian instructed softly.
"Yes."
The three drivers promptly moved box after box of dicine, sent from all over the country, into the villa’s courtyard.
Then, one driver went back to the car and took out a very exquisitely made small wooden box, handed it to Yin Tian with great formality, "Mr. Yin, this is the Thousand Stars Vine that boss Lu acquired at a high price, please take good care of it."
Yin Tian took the small wooden box, opened it, and inside lay a vine no bigger than the size of a palm.
On the vine, there were tiny white dots spread across it, just like little stars.
It was indeed the Thousand Stars Vine!
The other two drivers also solemnly brought out extrely precious herbs from their vehicles and handed them over to Yin Tian.
These were herbs that had been lost for hundreds or even thousands of years; heaven knows how much Lu Zhengfeng and the others had spent and where they managed to find them.
Soon, all the herbs were piled up in the courtyard in front of the villa.
"Mr. Yin, since there is nothing else we can do here, we will be leaving now," the three drivers respectfully said to Yin Tian.
Yin Tian nodded slightly, "Hmm, thank you for your effort."
Just as the three drivers were leaving, Yin Tian was about to prepare the antidote for Su Qinwei.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps ca from outside the courtyard, and they were getting closer...
