Chapter 8 Not Your Turn to Teach A Lesson

Liu Shengsheng staggered to her feet and was about to leave.

This bastard's expression showed that he must have accidentally been poisoned when he sucked out the poisonous blood. That's why he slept so soundly...

He probably wouldn't wake up in a short time. If she slipped away now, he would definitely not be able to find her!

But after all, he was poisoned when saving her. Was she really going to abandon him?

"Forget it, I won't owe anyone any favors."

Thinking of this, Liu Shengsheng took out two pills from the pharmacy to detoxify the snake venom. She took one herself and stuffed the other one into Nan Muze's mouth.

Although the pill was in his mouth, what should she do if he didn't swallow it?

Thinking of mouth-to-mouth she saw on the TV, Liu Shengsheng shook her head quickly.

She didn't want to do it!

"If he has to die, then let it be. I've done my best anyway!"

Nan Muze was speechless.

"At worst, I'll dig a hole for you and thank you for saving my life."

Nan Muze swallowed the pill unexpectedly...

Liu Shengsheng breathed a sigh of relief, as he had swallowed it himself. Otherwise, she would really be digging a hole for herself...

As she was lost in thought, a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.

Liu Shengsheng lost her balance and threw herself into his arms!

"Ouch..."

When she looked up again, they were already looking at each other.

“…”

Nan Muze stared at her coldly. "Are you sure you want to dig a hole for me?"

"Uh... I thought you wouldn't wake up. I couldn't just leave you, Your Highness, to become a corpse in the wilderness, could I?"

"Do you mean that I should thank you?"

"No, there's no need..."

Liu Shengsheng was so embarrassed.

Nan Muze pushed her away and patted his clothes in disgust. "Why didn't you run away?"

"I did want to. However, if I am to escape, you will die. I am not someone who goes back on my word. Although I do hate you, you can die elsewhere. You cannot die because of me."

Nan Muze twitched the corner of his mouth. "I won't die because of you."

"Come on, after all, you did it for me..."

"Shut up!"

Liu Shengsheng blinked and did not say anything more.

Nan Muze blushed a little. Without looking at Liu Shengsheng, he walked down the mountain.

"If another one finds out about this, I'll cut off your tongue."

Liu Shengsheng was speechless.

It's okay not to say it. Why was he so hot-tempered?"

After all, Liu Shengsheng had injured her ankle and limped all the way down the mountain. When she reached the foot of the mountain, it was completely dark.

Not far away, a dense number of torches were approaching. After a while, Xiaojiang came over with a large group of people.

"Your Highness, you're finally down! If you didn't come down, I would have rushed up!"

Nan Muze looked a little pale, walking to the carriage without saying a word.

Liu Shengsheng hobbled after him but was stopped by Xiaojiang.

"How dare you bring the prince to such a place? If anything happens to him, can you bear the responsibility?"

"Scram."

Not far away, Nan Muze said irritably.

Xiaojiang snorted. "Did you hear that? Prince asked you to get lost!"

"It is you that I am referring to!"

Hearing this, everyone present instantly lowered their heads, and Xiaojiang was stunned.

He looked at Liu Shengsheng in disbelief and finally stepped aside.

Liu Shengsheng shrugged and swaggered to the carriage where Nan Muze was.

As her foot injury was not healed, she couldn't stand steady. As soon as she saw Nan Muze, she pounced on Nan Muze.

When she was about to pounce on his back, but saw Nan Muze dodging to the side.

As a result, Liu Shengsheng fell to the ground.

"Ouch..."

It hurt so much.

To her great embarrassment, after Liu Shengsheng entered the carriage, she leaned into the corner, falling asleep.

She, seemingly sleeping, has actually started to work on the antidote in the pharmacy.

She first processed the herbs she picked today and added other medicinal materials. Although most of the equipment had not been installed in the buff, the small portion of machines was enough for her to use. It didn't take long for her to make the antidote.

After she took out the antidote from the pharmacy and placed it in her palm, she slowly opened her eyes.

But unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes, she met the gaze of Nan Muze.

Would he keep staring at me all the time?

Liu Shengsheng's hand was a little restless, as the pill was in her palm. He shouldn't have noticed it, right...

"Did you intentionally blacken your face?"

Hearing Nan Muze's words, Liu Shengsheng hurriedly said, "No, I was originally dark-skinned..."

"Go and take a shower later. I want to see your true face."

Liu Shengsheng was stunned. "I don't think it's a good idea. My mother told me when I was a child that the person who saw my body would have to marry me..."

After a pause, she continued, "Your Highness is so handsome that I don't mind marrying you, but..."

"Scram."

"Alright."

Just as the carriage stopped, Liu Shengsheng quickly got off the carriage.

She was scared, thinking that the secret of the buff had been discovered.

It seemed that she couldn't use buff in public any more...

The gate of the Marquis' Residence was next to them. Before they could get there, a group of people came over in a mighty manner.

The leader Mu Hong had bloodshot eyes, as if she had just finished crying. As she approached, she raised her hand and slapped towards Liu Shengsheng.

"Clap!"

Liu Shengsheng's face instantly turned red.

"How dare you take Brother Ze to such a dangerous place and kill so many of his subordinates? Fortunately, he is fine. If something happened to him, you wouldn't be able to live!"

Liu Shengsheng did not expect her to hit her at all. She was about to fight back subconsciously when Nan Muze suddenly came over and pulled Liu Shengsheng behind him.

"It's not your turn to teach my people a lesson."

Mu Hong was so angry that her face turned red. "Brother Ze, she almost killed you!"

"That is my business, what does it have to do with you?"

What's going on?

King Jiu scolded her for a servant?

Mu Hong was angry and confused. "She's just a dirty and ugly maidservant. Why is she valued more than me?"

Now King Jiu was protecting her, so Mu Hong could not continue to lose her temper. She could only suppress her anger, saying with grievance,

"Brother Ze, I didn't mean to hit her. Now my father is dying, but she put you in danger. I'm really angry, so I lost my temper..."

After a pause, she glared at Liu Shengsheng and said, "This little maid is obviously lying. Maybe she wants to take you to a dangerous place to kill you. Look at her disheveled appearance. What herbs can she find?"

"Sorry, I've found the herb."

Liu Shengsheng said coldly.

Seeing that everyone was too shocked to speak, she continued, "Since Marquis' situation is critical, I think we should go in and talk."

After that, she walked into the manor with no expression on her face.

How dare she slap her across the face?

Very good.

She remembered it!

She will definitely slap back on her face!
