This Lady Is Trying to Kill Me

Chapter 34: I Knew You Were Up to No Good!

Tap, tap, tap…

Ye Jingtang carried Luo Ning on his back as he ran through the rain with large strides.

Along the way, the cold and elegant heroine's extremely annoyed nagging sounded. "Put me down! If you keep going, I'll hit you…"

Luo Ning shouted at Ye Jingtang for a long time along the way, but he was disobedient. She couldn't beat him up. After making a fuss, she arrived at the inn on his back. Carrying her, he jumped into the window.

After Ye Jingtang placed Luo Ning on the bed, his hands moved close to her front. Her expression became tense and serious. She shrank back on the bed and said coldly, "You… Little thief! Don't take advantage of me! I'm injured!"

The extremely embarrassed and angry rebuke made the bird, who had just followed in, shrink its neck in fear.

Just as Ye Jingtang was about to pull open Luo Ning's collar, he heard her voice and looked up. "Let me take a look at your injury! I'm not taking advantage of you! Stop worrying about trifles. We have to treat you!"

Bah! Luo Ning had suffered many times, so she had long understood Ye Jingtang's character of 'taking advantage of the situation'. How could she believe what he said to coax little girls?

"Don't I have hands of my own? I'm not dying… Turn around!"

Hearing this, Ye Jingtang got up, put down the curtain, and turned around. "It's a matter of life and death. Don't force yourself."

"When did I force myself? I asked you to return to Double Osmanthus Alley, but you refused to listen…"

Seeing the curtain lowered, Luo Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief. While complaining to Ye Jingtang, she untied her wet belt and pulled open her coarse clothes, revealing the undergarment under her clothes and her fair and flawless neck.

Her skin was originally as fair as jade, but there was an additional bruise on her shoulder where the poisonous needle had pierced. It was like a blob of ink staining a piece of white paper. It didn't look serious, but when placed on her flawless body, it was a little shocking.

Luo Ning'e frowned slightly. She had sealed her qi and blood. Her original intention was to go home and ask Yunli to help her get the poisoned blood out.

In the end, the little thief acted on his own and brought her to the inn. How could she force the poison out alone?

Luo Ning tilted her head to try, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't bite her shoulder…

She looked left and right. There were no usable items on the bed.

Luo Ning gritted her teeth and wished she could beat Ye Jingtang up. After thinking for a while, she could only say softly, "Little thief, give me a cup."

"Hmm?" Ye Jingtang, who was waiting outside, was a little puzzled when he heard this. After thinking for a moment, he picked up a teacup and reached into the bed curtain. He didn't take the opportunity to peek.

Luo Ning took the blanket and placed it on her shoulder. But her shoulders were not so straight, and the cup was too big. It was unrealistic to use it for cupping. She thought for a moment and said, "Please… go help me cut off a piece of bamboo, a thin piece."

?

Ye Jingtang was baffled. "How can there be a bamboo forest around here? What exactly are you doing?"

"Cupping. Don't ask so many questions."

"…"

Ye Jingtang wasn't stupid. After pondering for a moment, he understood Luo Ning's difficulties and turned around to open the curtain.

Swish!

"Ahhh!"

The man suddenly appeared in front of her. Luo Ning, whose clothes were half undone, was caught off guard. She was so shocked that her entire body trembled. She hurriedly pulled up her clothes, her beautiful face full of anger. "You little thief… what are you doing?"

Ye Jingtang came close, grabbed Luo Ning's right wrist, and pulled it away. The unbuttoned lapel fell open, revealing a pale blue mountain and a full moon.

Luo Ning knew this would happen. She looked at Ye Jingtang with shame and anger and wanted to cover herself up. But her left hand had sealed her qi and blood, so she couldn't exert any strength. Her right hand was being held, so even touching the soft sword was an extravagant hope.

After Luo Ning was pressed onto the pillow by Ye Jingtang, her heart was full of sadness and shame when she noticed the man sizing up her chest. Two streams of tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. "You shameless thief, I knew you had this intention. I knew you had ill intentions…"

Her tone was plaintive, and her body was writhing and struggling on the bed.

Ye Jingtang couldn't focus at all. He said seriously, "Will you stop swaying?"

?

Luo Ning no longer cared about her injury and shouted angrily, "Let go of me! You little thief, if you dare to touch me…!"

"If you continue to mess around and anger me, I won't be gentlemanly anymore."

"…"

Luo Ning glared at Ye Jingtang with bloodshot eyes. She was still ashamed and resentful, but she didn't dare to say anything else.

Ye Jingtang looked down at the bruise on her shoulder and asked, "Is it okay to put the poison in your mouth?"

Luo Ning gritted her teeth, knowing Ye Jingtang's intentions. She tilted her head and closed her eyes, looking like a helpless heroine who was powerless to resist and being subjected to humiliation.

"I'm asking you a question. Answer me."

"Why don't you try it yourself?" Luo Ning said angrily.

"This is poison. If you don't tell me, I won't dare to try."

Luo Ning bit her lower lip and refused to speak.

Ye Jingtang was helpless. After pondering for a while, he could only lean on Heroine Luo's shoulder.

Slurp…

"Woo~" Luo Ning raised her face slightly. Her lower lip looked about to break from biting it. She arched her legs and rubbed them against the bed uneasily as a few more tears rolled down her face.

Ptui!

Ye Jingtang raised his head, spat out a mouthful of black blood into the teacup he had just brought over, and continued.

The bird was on sentry duty at the window, so it could only see the shadows through the curtain. It didn't know what the two were doing, so it was puzzled and chirped twice.

Luo Ning's seconds felt like years. An indescribable embarrassment filled her heart. She opened her eyes and looked at the lowered curtain, then at the little thief, who was busy with her body, to see if he had any evil intentions. In the end, she found that Ye Jingtang's face was a little distorted, and he looked like he was in pain.

Tendon Piercing Powder was the same as most poisons. Only when the skin was broken and blood was seen could someone be poisoned. If his mouth wasn't injured, he should be fine as long as he didn't swallow it.

But when Luo Ning saw Ye Jingtang's pained expression, her heart still skipped a beat. She thought that his mouth had been injured.

Although Luo Ning was so ashamed and resentful that she wished she could chop this little thief to death with a sword, with a life at stake, she still asked nervously, "Are you poisoned?"

Ye Jingtang's brows were furrowed and eyes were drawn together as he spat out a mouthful of blood and spittle. "So f*cking bitter…"

??

The worry in Luo Ning's heart dissipated into thin air as she harrumphed coldly. "You're a man, yet you're afraid of a little hardship… Your heart isn't in the right place, and you bully women whenever you have the chance…"

Ye Jingtang frowned, stepped forward, and leaned toward Luo Ning's red lips. "You're not afraid? Okay, taste it yourself…"

Luo Ning's eyes were full of shock as she hurriedly covered Ye Jingtang's mouth and said fearfully, "I know it's hard… Don't mess around!"

Hearing this, Ye Jingtang was satisfied…
