“Keep your voice down! Don’t disturb the girl,” Xu Da patted Chu Nan and reprimanded him.

Chu Nan quickly restrained his voice. He turned his attention to Qin Yu.

“I’ll watch over Xiao Yu. Please get some rest.?You haven’t slept since yesterday,” Ning Chen said to Xu Da and Chu Nan.

Xu Da and Chu Nan didn’t want to leave, but they realized that they couldn’t be of much help here, and Ning Chen was at least a skilled professional. He knew Qin Yu’s situation better than the two of them.

“Okay then, we’ll be leaving. Let us know when Xiao Yu wakes up.”

Xu Da and Chu Nan left. Ning Chen asked Chang An to leave, then stood by the bed and looked at Qin Yu for a while.

Qin Yu looked calm, but he could vaguely feel that she was struggling in pain.

Was she having a nightmare?

Ning Chen slowly took off the white gloves that he had put on when he was preparing the medicine and then took off his coat.

He put his shoes at the side of the bed. Ning Chen pulled away the blanket beside Qin Yu and slowly lay down beside her. Then, he reached out a hand and hugged Qin Yu.

It wasn’t a big bed. Although it was sufficient for one to sleep, any more than that was a little cramped.

They leaned against the bed. Ning Chen’s fingers slowly caressed Qin Yu’s face, feeling the warmth of her body.

“I won’t let anything happen to you.”

Ning Chen’s tone carried a hint of faith that was close to paranoia.

It was unknown if they shared a connection. After Ning Chen said this, Qin Yu’s fingers trembled slightly.

At midnight, Ning Chen felt a little sleepy because of his fatigue. His consciousness was a little muddled.

In his daze, he felt a little movement.

At first, Ning Chen didn’t react. It wasn’t until Qin Yu’s struggle became more and more intense that he suddenly woke up.

Qin Yu’s forehead was covered in sweat. She frowned as if she was being bound by a nightmare. Her body trembled violently and was close to convulsing.

“Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, wake up!” Ning Chen held Qin Yu’s hand tightly. He did not know what to do and could only call Qin Yu’s name over and over again.

In Qin Yu’s blurry consciousness, she only felt that she was slowly falling into the abyss. There were countless ferocious and terrifying eyes at the bottom of the abyss. They extended their long and thick tentacles, wanting to drag Qin Yu into nothingness.

The feeling of weightlessness and the feeling of falling made Qin Yu struggle with all her might. She could not make a sound and could only wave her arms and legs with all her might.

In the dream, she struggled with all her might. However, in reality, her entire body was trembling and cold sweat was dripping down her face.

In the midst of the despair that engulfed everything, she heard her name.

One after another, anxious and trembling, with a trace of fear and helplessness.

Such a familiar voice.

She must’ve heard it before.

The chaotic and monotonous consciousness in the dream gradually became clear, and Qin Yu suddenly awakened her subconscious — Chen!

No, she couldn’t fall!

She still had love and affection to give! To the people around her, and the ones she loved!

Ning Chen!

Qin Yu suddenly opened her eyes.

Meeting Ning Chen’s bloodshot eyes, Qin Yu let out a breath as if she had just survived a disaster. She tried her best to squeeze out a smile, “Chen…”

She did not speak clearly. Her voice was thick and hoarse, as if she was exhausted when she squeezed out these words from her throat.

Ning Chen looked at Qin Yu’s eyes in shock.

Until it turned into ecstasy.

In the end, he hugged Qin Yu tightly, so tightly that she was about to be crushed.

Qin Yu could feel Ning Chen’s fear and suppressed pain.

Was he… worried about her?

“Chen, I… I’m fine…”Qin Yu coughed and comforted him.

“How can you be fine…” Ning Chen looked at her with a pair of bloodshot eyes, with his voice trembling, “Fortunately, you were only injected with one-third of the poison. Any more and my master wouldn’t be able to save you even if he came back to life! Do you know how… how scared I was…”

Ning Chen had never shown such an expression before. Qin Yu found it difficult to describe it, but she could only feel a piercing pain in her heart.

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I will never do this again, I’m sorry…”

Qin Yu hugged Ning Chen, feeling helpless as she tried to comfort the man who was on the verge of going crazy from self-blame, “Before he injected the poison into me, I had a premonition that something was wrong, so I bit the antitoxin that was fixed to the back of my teeth. You gave me that. This time, it was you who saved me. Chen, don’t blame yourself, okay?”

When they made the plan, Ning Chen had prepared a special antitoxin for her just in case. Although it could not guarantee that Qin Yu would be immune to all poisons, after taking it.., there was an ingredient that could effectively suppress the rapid spread of the poison.. Moreover, it could immediately put the human body into a state of shock and slow down the blood flow, causing the blood to coagulate slightly, preventing the poison from spreading further.
