Hearing this, Liang He looked at Yan Ling teasingly and said, "Of course it's possible, but I still feel that Imperial Physician Bai is an old fox after all. If he's really an accomplice, he can just get rid of Red Leaf and kill him once and for all, there's no need to expose him."

Naturally, he would listen to Liang He's analysis. At this moment, he also nodded his head, "In the end, there's no problem. After all, if I spent a lot of effort to create a tunnel, I wouldn't be so easily found by others."

Liang He nodded. He only felt that the interior of the room was stuffy. Feeling somewhat uncomfortable, he tugged at his collar, his face slightly hot.

At first, Yan Ling thought that Liang He was bored out of his mind, but after a while, he found that Liang He's face had turned red and his forehead was sweating profusely.

After a closer look, Yan Ling discovered that Liang He was tightly clenching his fists. The veins on his fists were all exposed, as if he was enduring something.

Yan Ling immediately felt that something was wrong. The first thought that came to his mind was that Red Leaf had placed some poison somewhere in the passageway. When Liang He had entered the tunnel, he had already made quite a big heart out of it.

"What's the matter with you?" Yan Ling hurriedly took two steps forward.

"Don't come near me!" Seeing that Yan Ling was about to step forward, Liang He immediately tried to stop him.

Yan Ling was slightly injured and stared blankly for a while. After standing there blankly for a while, he discovered that Liang He's expression seemed to be even more unsightly. He was so anxious that he could not care about anything else. He immediately took a few steps forward and extended his hand to probe Liang He's forehead.

The temperature of the tentacles gave Yan Ling a fright. Although the weather was very hot, this room was still pretty cool, so how could it be as hot as his tentacles?

Yan Ling was stunned for a moment. Everyone said it was because they were concerned, so it was a mess. Right now, she didn't know what exactly had happened to Liang He. His body was burning hot and his face was flushed. Sweat continued to pour down his forehead.

However, Yan Ling did not have the chance to think it through again. The moment her icy, small hands touched his forehead, Liang He subconsciously grabbed onto Yan Ling's hand, and pulled his entire body into his bosom.

Yan Ling felt the world spinning around him. Before he could even react to what had happened, Liang He's lips had already covered his own.

Unlike his usual tender feelings, Liang He's actions seemed more instinctive, carrying a sense of urgency, and he had the impulse to swallow his words.

Although Yan Ling still did not understand what had happened, Liang He's abnormal behavior had indeed caught her attention. Thus, he subconsciously wanted to stop her.

However, Liang He was already on the verge of losing control of himself. With how strong Yan Ling was, he naturally wouldn't have much of an impact. Thus, he pushed and shoved Liang He's small hand in the chest, as if it was of no use at all.

After a long while, Yan Ling could only feel that he was on the verge of losing his breath. As he patted Liang He's back, he began to dodge.

"Liang He …" Yan Ling weakly shouted out.

However, these two words allowed Liang He to instantly regain his rationality. However, to Liang He, the word itself was not important. What was important was that he had heard Yan Ling's voice.

Liang He let go of Yan Ling, and Yan Ling immediately jumped out of Liang He's embrace as if he had suffered some sort of shock. His hair and sleeves were in a disarray, and he took a few steps back. Then, he looked at Liang He with a vigilant expression.

Liang He, who had slightly calmed down and was able to control himself, found it funny when he saw Yan Ling's cautious appearance. He could not help but shake his head.

Only now did he realize what he had been doing. He had told her not to come over, and that silly girl had even foolishly come over to him. Fortunately, nothing had happened, otherwise, even Liang He would not have forgiven himself.

However, Liang He immediately laughed out loud. It was likely that even after what had just happened, Yan Ling still did not understand what had happened. Otherwise, he would not have revealed such an expression.

In some places it was obvious, but at other times it seemed like a dead mind. Liang He didn't know what he should say. He was indeed a silly girl.

But soon, Liang He couldn't laugh anymore. The heat flow in his body seemed to be clashing randomly, and it seemed to be even more violent than before. Liang He was using the wisdom in his entire body to maintain his calm. Now Liang He was afraid that he would act impulsively and do something that would hurt his words.

Yan Ling was a little surprised by Liang He's chuckle. He thought he was just teasing him, but before he could even ask, he discovered that Liang He's reaction was even more intense than before. The expression on his face also became more uncomfortable.

Although he subconsciously wanted to go forward again, after learning the lesson, Yan Ling still hesitated. He forced himself to control his own subconscious reaction.

"Liang He, how are you right now? Did you just get poisoned in the passage? " Yan Ling asked worriedly.

Liang He saw that it was exactly as he had expected, and couldn't help but find it funny. He endured it and said, "I was indeed struck by poison in the secret passage just now, but it wasn't some poison. You better not get too close to me. After all, if you really are talking about poison, you are my 'antidote'. "

It had to be said that Liang Hetao was truly extraordinary. He was actually still in the mood to joke around even at a time like this, using this as a way to tease others. Of course, this couldn't be ruled out. Liang He was only using this method to distract himself and calm down.

Liang He's words were clear enough. As long as Yan Ling thought about it, he would definitely understand. Thinking back to Liang He's previous reaction and what he had done to him, Yan Ling only felt his face flush red and was unable to speak for a while.

"Then... What are you going to do now? " Yan Ling asked hesitantly after a while.

Although it was impossible for Yan Ling to really use himself as the 'antidote', and the first thought that came to his mind was for Liang He to go find someone else, he didn't know why, but the moment this thought popped out, Yan Ling felt as if a needle had pierced into his heart, as if a sharp pain was pricking him.

However, even though he said that, it was impossible for Yan Ling to leave Liang He alone. He watched as Liang He suffered in this place, and thus, he subconsciously opened his mouth to ask.

"The medicinal properties are very strong. I almost lost my mind a moment ago. I'm afraid it's not something that can be endured. Looks like I'll have to think of a way to cure it." Liang He clenched his fist with one hand and tightly gripped the armrest of his chair with the other. Only by doing so would he be able to speak normally and not pounce on Yan Ling when he heard his voice.
