The sound of footsteps came from outside again. She frowned as her gaze swept over the fruit knife placed at the side. Almost without thinking much, she directly took it and stuffed it into her clothes.

She didn't know why her heart was so firm at this moment. She was really determined to die, or at most, she would really die.

The sound of a lock being unlocked followed by footsteps approached her, "You little girl, I was almost kicked to death by you, do you know that?"

"Who told you to overestimate yourself." She replied in a muffled voice.

He walked to her side and said, "What I said was the truth. It was your reaction that was too big. Can you blame me?"

"Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"

Seeing Jiang Ruoqing not saying a word for a long time, he bent down to break her arm, but she did not expect her to flip over so easily, a silver light flashed and a fruit knife was pressed against his neck, her expression became serious.

"How about this compensation?"

Jing Moxuan was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, his laughter was complete and chaotic. However, because of his actions, she accidentally slashed across his neck with his blade.

He didn't feel any pain. He stopped smiling and stared at her with a serious expression. He slowly reached out and rubbed the wound on his hand. Then, he placed his bloody hand in his mouth.

Jiang Ruoqing nearly vomited blood when she saw this, she only felt that was a person that she could not comprehend, a weirdo. She simply did not know what to do, and did not know what to do next.

His reaction completely disrupted her pace. She really felt like she was being driven crazy, but his hand directly grabbed her hand holding the knife. He deliberately lowered his voice and said word by word, "Your knife must be stabbed in this place."

He placed the knife on the back of his neck with a little more force. "This is the artery. As long as your knife is half a foot deep, blood will gush out."

"Spray it on the ceiling, on your face, and on your body. It's very exciting. Come, pierce it hard."

This was completely a blow to her soul. She was so scared that even her breathing became uncomfortable. Her eyes widened as she blankly stared at him, unable to speak. She had no idea what she should do.

His fingers trembled as he opened his eyes wide, "Jing Moxuan, you …"

"What's wrong with me? Didn't you want to kill me? Come on, as long as you stab down with the same consequences as what I just said, it will definitely be very exciting. " He laughed like a madman.

"Do you know how I know?"

"How did you know?" After all, she was too strong. Her hands were already trembling, let alone stabbing down! She couldn't do it! He really couldn't do it.

"Because I really like this feeling, so every time I play a killing game, I would stab someone else in the heart. Watching blood spurt everywhere all over the body, that feeling is very satisfying."

Jiang Ruoqing had absolutely no idea how he said those words. Her expression became extremely strange, and she was even trembling a little from fear.

"You're afraid just like that?" he asked over his shoulder.

She was so scared that her knife fell to the ground, and she didn't even dare to touch it. She looked at him with a frightened expression, and her face turned pale. Finally, with a trembling voice, she said, "Then kill me."

"What?" He frowned slightly, indicating that he didn't understand what she was saying.

Jiang Ruoqing slightly raised her head, her voice was filled with trembling, yet her eyes were still determined, "I say, kill me. If you don't kill me, I won't let you use me as a threat to control Chen!"

Her tone was very firm. He lowered his head and wanted to take the knife, but Jing Moxuan quickly picked it up and sneered, "You don't mean that you can die just because you want to?"

Jiang Ruoqing's heart skipped a beat. What? You still need his permission to die? Isn't this a little too overbearing?

She bit down hard and glared at him. She couldn't help but think about what she should do. She couldn't let him continue to coerce her, could she? What should she do?

"Then what do you want? How do you want to deal with me? "

"I didn't think of it yet. I'll tell you when I think of it." Jing Moxuan smiled as he pinched her chin and said, "Don't be so desperate, maybe this will also be your first time being reborn?"

She patted his hand away in disgust, her eyes exceptionally cold. "Don't touch me."

"So what if you touched it? You want me to die without descendants? " He laughed and quickly touched her face.

Jiang Ruoqing's face was extremely dark as she clenched her fist into a fist and punched him in the stomach. Strangely enough, he didn't dodge, but her face revealed a warm and angry expression, "You better not provoke me, otherwise, I'll do anything. Don't forget that I'm a dying person, I don't mind pulling someone as a cushion."

Jing Moxuan laughed wantonly, and only stopped after a while, his voice was low and hoarse, "I have never seen a woman like you before, do you really not want to continue living?"

Her eyes blurred for a moment, but she quickly shook her head again. "Don't think I'll do anything for you."

He picked up his wine glass and took a sip, staring at her in disdain, "You're too sensitive, woman. I didn't force you to do anything, but you think I'm that shameless? They want to use you to threaten Cheng Yichen? "

"Otherwise?" she asked, as if it was a matter of course.

He didn't know how to respond to that. He forced a laugh. "What if I say I just want to rob you?"

"I don't believe it." She spoke directly, "You shouldn't have the slightest interest in me, right? Moreover, you are Young Master Jing, there is no need to go through so much trouble just for a woman we've only met a few times, right? "

In a moment, Jing Moxuan was choked up to the point that he couldn't say anything. He just blankly stared at her, looking at her stiff and serious little face.

"I guessed right, so I didn't dare to continue speaking, right? Jing Moxuan, you really are. " She shook his head. "Don't expect me to cooperate with you. Don't even think about it."

Jing Moxuan continued to be speechless, "Alright, just relax and think about it."

She sat up in bed and stared at him coldly. "When will you release me?"

"Keep guessing. Guess when I'll let you go?"

He was clearly teasing her! Jiang Ruoqing's little face instantly stiffened, her face filled with anger. "You're so bored!"

Jing Moxuan shrugged and asked somewhat speechlessly, "Am I bored? I don't think so. "

She did not want to continue wasting time with him, she immediately stood up and wanted to leave, but before her eyes blacked out, she fell down. Seeing that, Jing Moxuan immediately supported her, and said solemnly: "Come!"

The doctor examined her carefully and then shook his head. "Although it is a chronic poison, it is still spreading. It is not good for her."

"Can you control it?" Jing Moxuan was extremely serious as he glanced at the woman, "Try your best to control the poison!"

"Yes, Young Master Jing."

Jing Moxuan thought to himself. He had finally found a woman he was interested in, how could she die so quickly? That would be too boring.

Shing — —

Lying on the bed, Jiang Ruoqing couldn't help but tear, and even in her dreams, she still felt a piercing pain. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the needle that had pierced into her arm and stomach.

His eyes instantly widened as he glared at Jing Moxuan fiercely, "What are you doing?"

"Can't you see it?" He answered sloppily, "I'm having someone give you a shot."

"Damn it, it hurts!" She cried out in pain, and even her tears flowed out. She stared at him with hidden bitterness. "Quick, quick, pull it out. It's really painful."

Jing Moxuan looked at him, the doctor then pulled out all the needles, the pain had disappeared, but she still felt very tired, as though he had contracted a serious illness, very weak.

Jing Moxuan waved his hand, "All of you, go out."

Seeing that, the doctors and the servants immediately packed up and left, leaving only the two of them in the room. Jiang Ruoqing rubbed her arm occasionally, the pain she felt just now had disappeared and was replaced with an itch.

"Your poison is slowly spreading."

Jiang Ruoqing shot him a look that she had already guessed earlier, continued to tug at her own arm, and laughed bitterly as she asked, "How long can I live?"

"I don't know. If I'm lucky, it'll take half a year, but if it's bad, it'll take a few months."

She thoughtfully nodded her head, but did not speak for a long time. The corners of her mouth were suffused with a sorrowful expression. She did not know how to react. What should she do? Depressed? Scared? Or was he trying to pretend to be calm?

Forget it. Whatever. She was someone who was going to die anyway. Why would she need to wear a mask?

"My luck has always been bad. I don't think I'll live long."

"Why do you have so little confidence in yourself?" He gripped her hand tightly and said seriously, "I won't give up on you, girl."

Jiang Ruoqing's face revealed a strange expression, she tried to pull back her hand, but she could not, she stared at him in astonishment, "What the hell are you doing?"

The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said very seriously, "I didn't do anything funny, I'm serious, I'll find the antidote."

She really felt a little dizzy. What kind of situation was this? Was this really a Jing Moxuan that was as cold as ice? Or was he possessed by something? Or was she still of great use to him?

It was simply because his previous actions were too unreliable. Furthermore, with Cheng Yichen's warning, she subconsciously felt that Jing Moxuan was a bad guy, and that he wasn't a good person.

"I don't like people looking at me with suspicion." He stared at her with a tense face. "Don't you believe me?"

She nodded seriously. "A little."

"You can ask who I, Jing Moxuan, am, and why not believe me?" He showed an expression of extreme disdain. "I will do as I say. This is my promise to you."

A demon's promise to her? Jiang Ruoqing's expression froze, she stared blankly at him with an expression of astonishment, and only after a long while did she ask: "Are you speaking the truth?"

"Of course, it's especially true, but I have a small request." He smiled proudly as he stared at her mysteriously and said, "How about becoming my Three Palaces and Six Courtyards?"

Her face flushed, not out of shyness but out of anger, and she knocked him on the head. "Three your heads!"

He was stunned on the spot, probably not expecting her to reach out and knock on his head. Therefore, he was completely dumbstruck, while Jiang Ruoqing slowly began to regret her decision.

She should keep her distance from him. How could she joke with him? In that case, wouldn't he be the one to accidentally infuriate this leopard? She was afraid that she wouldn't even know how she died.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." She playfully stretched out her big, intelligent eyes, not knowing where to look.

Jing Moxuan actually didn't care, because ever since he was young, everyone thought that he was the boss, and there were very few people who actually started a fight with him, which was why he felt it was inconceivable.

"It doesn't matter."
