Chapter 422: Chapter 422

First aid supplies were available in the car; Yan Qianyi began by disinfecting and stopping the bleeding of Mu Yunlie’s wound.

She was very careful, not wanting to hurt him.

While treating his wound, she cooed, "It’s going to sting a bit, hang in there, it’ll be over soon."

As she spoke, she pouted and blew gently on the wound, as if comforting a small child.

"All set, I’ll apply more medicine once we get home."

After wrapping the bandage, Yan Qianyi looked up at Mu Yunlie.

Under the warm, amber light inside the car, his gaze was tender and pure, filled with a longing for her.

Yan Qianyi felt as if she was looking at a helpless little puppy, gazing at her with eyes begging for a caress.

She couldn’t help but reach out and gently rub Mu Yunlie’s head, smiling tenderly, "Ah Lie is so good, not afraid of the pain at all."

"It’s been a long time since my wife smiled at me," said Mu Yunlie as he took Yan Qianyi’s hand and caressed his face with it.

"I’ll make sure not to upset you in the future. Please, don’t leave me again, alright?"

"The time you were away from me, I missed you so deeply every day. Without you, every day was joyless, and I felt as though I was going to die."

"I truly love you so much, please don’t leave me, alright?"

Looking into Mu Yunlie’s pleading eyes, Yan Qianyi’s heart melted.

How could she bear to hurt or reject such a vulnerable man?

It was only when the poison took effect that his vulnerable side would come out , behaving childishly with her.

If he were to confess these feelings while sober, she suspected she wouldn’t have the heart to resist.

But the sober him had his pride and temper—how could he, like now, set aside all his pride and cling to her like a little puppy?

"Is it okay?" Mu Yunlie’s eyes were watery, as if tears could fall at any moment.

Yan Qianyi nodded, "Okay."

"Then don’t lie to me, I will remember."

"I won’t lie to you," Yan Qianyi said with a resigned smile.

Given that he was supposed to be medicated regularly, the sudden onset of neurotoxin suggested something was severely wrong.

Thus, once he was sober, he likely wouldn’t remember a thing.

"I’ll check your pulse now."

Yan Qianyi reached for Mu Yunlie’s pulse.

Indeed, the toxins that had been under control inside him were now disarrayed, seemingly influenced by something.

If it were just alcohol, it shouldn’t have had such a significant effect.

"We should hurry back."

Yan Qianyi released Mu Yunlie’s hand and started the car.

She had to control the spread of toxins in his body as quickly as possible.

She did have silver needles on her.

However, those silver needles were meant for self-defense, coated with poison.

Yan Qianyi was driving, but Mu Yunlie wouldn’t sit still.

First, he rested his head on her shoulder, and bit by bit, he snuggled into her neck.

"Ah Lie, be good for now. I’m driving; this isn’t safe."

"The car can drive itself."

Mu Yunlie didn’t care; all he wanted was to be close to Yan Qianyi.

He really couldn’t be treated like a child.

She had no choice but to let him be.

Aunt Xue hadn’t gone to bed and was waiting at home.

Yan Qianyi had left the house in a hurry, so Aunt Xue was worried something might have happened.

Seeing the two of them finally return relieved her.

However, seeing the blood-soaked bandage on Mu Yunlie’s hand tightened her heart again.

"What happened to the son-in-law? What happened?"

"There’s nothing to worry about, Aunt Xue. You should go to bed early. I’ll take Ah Lie back to his room first."

"Okay." Aunt Xue nodded. "If there’s anything you need at night, just call me."

"Don’t worry, it’s all right."

After returning to the bedroom, Yan Qianyi, worried that Mu Yunlie might be cold, raised the temperature of the heating in the room and then began to help him undress to prepare for the needle treatment.

Mu Yunlie was cooperative, chuckling, "Are we going to sleep?"

"I need to administer the needle first to control the toxins in your body."

Hearing this, the smile on Mu Yunlie’s face froze, and he frowned unwillingly.

"Do we have to administer the needle? Can we skip it?"

Yan Qianyi firmly said, "No."

Everything could be indulged, but not this.

After all, it was a matter of his life.

"Alright then..." Mu Yunlie felt dejected but still cooperatively followed.

Once he was undressed, Yan Qianyi asked him to lie down on the bed, but he held her tightly instead, gently kissing her ear and spoke with a somewhat hoarse voice, "I want to be intimate with my wife."

"..." Yan Qianyi felt a shiver run through her body.

The little demon was at it again.

Mu Yunlie pleaded, "I won’t hurt the baby in the belly, okay?"

Yan Qianyi, being held by him, felt her body heat up and her heart itch.

But now was not the time for intimacy.

She swallowed to moisten her throat and said sternly, "No, if you don’t behave, I’m leaving."

As soon as she spoke, Mu Yunlie immediately let her go and obediently lay down on the bed. "I’m ready, let’s begin."

Yan Qianyi couldn’t help but laugh a little.

This Ah Lie was simply too adorable!

She spread out the silver needles and carefully checked Mu Yunlie’s body.

She then discovered that it was other medications that had entered his body, triggering the neural toxins.

She could not determine what kind of medication it was.

Regular medications for common illnesses, like anti-inflammatory drugs for colds, wouldn’t have such a severe effect.

However, the medication that entered his body tonight affected his body hormones, causing excessive secretion of his hormones and hyperexcitation of his nerves.

That was what triggered the controlled neural toxins.

Yan Qianyi took a deep breath in frustration.

Mu Huaner, in order to match Ah Lie with Ning Nuan, actually used such despicable methods on Ah Lie!

Initially, she thought Mu Huaner only wanted to get Mu Yunlie drunk so he would act inappropriately.

Yan Qianyi clenched her teeth, wishing she could go find Mu Huaner right now and give her a severe beating!

"Wife, why are you unhappy?" Mu Yunlie looked at Yan Qianyi with confusion in his eyes.

Before Yan Qianyi could answer, he suddenly sat up anxiously, pulling her tightly into his arms.

"I already lay down obediently. Don’t be angry, and don’t leave!"

"I’m not angry, and I’m not leaving."

Yan Qianyi gently patted his shoulder, saying, "Lie down, I need to start the acupunture."

"Okay." Mu Yunlie immediately lay back down.

Yan Qianyi tried to control her anger and carefully administered the needles.

He looked rather haggard during this period, and it seemed he had lost some weight after their separation.

To ensure he would have a good night’s sleep, Yan Qianyi administered an extra needle.

Mu Yunlie kept his eyes fixed on Yan Qianyi, not blinking at all.

Worried that if he blinked, she might leave him.

After this needle was administered, Mu Yunlie immediately felt drowsiness take over, but he still tried to keep his eyelids from closing...
