Chapter 596: Chapter 596

Rong Fei saw the woman lying on the ground, pale as paper, and said, "Didn’t you say you’d only drink a syringe’s worth?"

"I really couldn’t control myself, brother, you have to keep her plump and not mistreat her."

"Just this once, never again. With the way you drink, can she even survive? I must control you, completely rid you of this blood-drinking habit."

He got up, lifted Gu Lili from the ground, and took her back to his own bedroom.

A doctor was called to treat the wound on her arm and put her on a drip.

Mostly, Gu Lili’s meals were blood-nourishing anyway, so there was no need for further instruction on that.

Rong Fei had someone watch over the IV while he went out to attend to some business. By the time he returned, several hours had passed.

It had begun to pour outside, and the sky was pitch black.

The room was eerily silent.

Only the sound of rain could be heard.

Gu Lili still hadn’t woken up.

Rong Fei took a shower, and when he came out of the bathroom, he heard crying from the imperial concubine’s couch.

He approached and found her awake, her shoulders trembling as she cried non-stop.

"I’m trapped in such a situation, treated , and you won’t even let me cry?! I feel so wronged!!!"

Gu Lili cried even harder, sobbing with all her might.

Rong Fei was at a loss for words and in a fit of frustration, he roared, "Shut up!"

The crying stopped abruptly, and Gu Lili looked at him with a grievous face, "You heartless, ungrateful man..."

Rong Fei’s expression softened, "I won’t let her drink from you like that anymore, so you needn’t look so scared."

Saying she looked scared?

What a joke, would he still say that if their places were switched?

It doesn’t hurt when it’s not your own body being stabbed.

Servants brought in the meal, and since Gu Lili had lost so much blood, she was very weak. Even though this body wasn’t hers, it shouldn’t be treated .

She obediently sat cross-legged on the bed and bowed her head to eat. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel•fire.net

"Who is that lady? Your lover?"

"Oh," Gu Lili said nonchalantly, her voice faint, "I thought she was your woman."

"If I had a woman, would you still be able to share a room with me?"

In her mind, Gu Lili scoffed: Who would want to share a room with you?

"Is your sister a vampire?"

"No, she just has that habit."

Gu Lili’s voice was slightly nasal, "Such a unique habit, deriving joy from others’ pain, there’s something wrong with her mentally."

"You say that about her in front of me, aren’t you afraid I’ll break your neck?"

"I’m stating the facts."

Gu Lili continued eating slowly with her chopsticks, not looking at him.

She knew very well that this man would not let her go.

If she wanted to live, she had to stay under his watch; if she wanted to leave, there was only a dead end.

These days, she had thought of almost every possible method in her mind, yet found none viable.

Resisting him was nearly impossible.

What could she do to get out of here?

It seemed she needed to wait for the right moment, simply wait for such an opportunity to leave.

She didn’t know if it would ever come, but she must cling to this hope.

"You’re thinking about how to leave this place, aren’t you?"

Gu Lili put her bowl and chopsticks on the tray, "Of course, what else can I think about now?"

"Pity, you won’t get such a chance, you can’t escape."
