Rong Fei saw the woman lying on the ground, pale as paper, and said, "Didn’t you say you’d only drink a syringe’s worth?"
"I really couldn’t control myself, brother, you have to keep her plump and not mistreat her."
"Just this once, never again. With the way you drink, can she even survive? I must control you, completely rid you of this blood-drinking habit."
He got up, lifted Gu Lili from the ground, and took her back to his own bedroom.
A doctor was called to treat the wound on her arm and put her on a drip.
Mostly, Gu Lili’s als were blood-nourishing anyway, so there was no need for further instruction on that.
Rong Fei had soone watch over the IV while he went out to attend to so business. By the ti he returned, several hours had passed.
It had begun to pour outside, and the sky was pitch black.
The room was eerily silent.
Only the sound of rain could be heard.
Gu Lili still hadn’t woken up.
Rong Fei took a shower, and when he ca out of the bathroom, he heard crying from the imperial concubine’s couch.
He approached and found her awake, her shoulders trembling as she cried non-stop.
"Stop crying."
"I’m trapped in such a situation, treated like this, and you won’t even let cry?! I feel so wronged!!!"
Gu Lili cried even harder, sobbing with all her might.
Rong Fei was at a loss for words and in a fit of frustration, he roared, "Shut up!"
The crying stopped abruptly, and Gu Lili looked at him with a grievous face, "You heartless, ungrateful man..."
Rong Fei’s expression softened, "I won’t let her drink from you like that anymore, so you needn’t look so scared."
Saying she looked scared?
What a joke, would he still say that if their places were switched?
It doesn’t hurt when it’s not your own body being stabbed.
Servants brought in the al, and since Gu Lili had lost so much blood, she was very weak. Even though this body wasn’t hers, it shouldn’t be treated like this.
She obediently sat cross-legged on the bed and bowed her head to eat.
"Who is that lady? Your lover?"
"My sister."
"Oh," Gu Lili said nonchalantly, her voice faint, "I thought she was your woman."
"If I had a woman, would you still be able to share a room with ?"
In her mind, Gu Lili scoffed: Who would want to share a room with you?
"Is your sister a vampire?"
"No, she just has that habit."
Gu Lili’s voice was slightly nasal, "Such a unique habit, deriving joy from others’ pain, there’s sothing wrong with her ntally."
"You say that about her in front of , aren’t you afraid I’ll break your neck?"
"I’m stating the facts."
Gu Lili continued eating slowly with her chopsticks, not looking at him.
She knew very well that this man would not let her go.
If she wanted to live, she had to stay under his watch; if she wanted to leave, there was only a dead end.
These days, she had thought of almost every possible thod in her mind, yet found none viable.
Resisting him was nearly impossible.
What could she do to get out of here?
It seed she needed to wait for the right mont, simply wait for such an opportunity to leave.
She didn’t know if it would ever co, but she must cling to this hope.
Not give up.
"You’re thinking about how to leave this place, aren’t you?"
Gu Lili put her bowl and chopsticks on the tray, "Of course, what else can I think about now?"
"Pity, you won’t get such a chance, you can’t escape."
