Chapter 316 The last move

"nature."

"Can I only say that you are worthy of being called Princess? You are indeed special."

Faced with such questions, Li Yan was not afraid at all. Instead, he looked more and more proud, and the whole person looked more and more crazy.

"Your Highness is so smart, I am a little reluctant to treat you like this. In this case, Your Highness, I am willing to give you a chance. As long as you agree to cooperate with me, I can give you the antidote in advance when I am satisfied."

"What do you think? Are you willing to accept this cooperation?" Li Yan stared at the person in front of him, as if he wanted to stare Bai Qianxi into a skeleton.

But Bai Qianxi still didn't speak.

He just looked at her quietly, but as time passed, Li Yan soon became a little impatient again.

"Well? Have you thought it through? Time waits for no one!"

"If you don't agree, I'll leave. You'll have to live like this for the rest of your life." Li Yan was about to turn around, but then he seemed to remember something and turned his head, "Oh, I forgot to remind you, if you don't get my antidote in a short time, I'm afraid you won't be able to speak for the rest of your life."

"So don't even think about complaining. Don't say I didn't give you a chance to regret it later!"

At this moment, Li Yan seemed to have calmed down a lot, and his rationality also gradually began to return.

He suddenly realized that he had wasted too much time here today.

Thinking of this, Li Yan pushed the door open without hesitation and prepared to leave.

"Did I let you go?" The cold voice sounded again, and Bai Qianxi's eyes emanated a cold light.

"Why, do you regret it? Can't bear to leave me?"

Li Yan turned around and was about to speak, but his eyes widened as if he had seen something incredible!

"You! How could you——"

A situation that completely exceeded his understanding was happening right in front of him. Li Yan's brain was working rapidly and he realized that this was a trap set against him!

Without any hesitation, Li Yan turned around and was about to escape!
At this moment, he didn't have time to think about why the person in front of him didn't get hit. He only knew that he had to leave here as soon as possible!

Otherwise it will be too late!

However, just as he ran to the gate, he watched the door in front of him being pushed open from the outside.

A familiar figure was guarding the door with his men. Madam Zhao's expression could no longer be described as gloomy!
Li Yan's face turned pale in an instant!
"Aunt, you..."

"Hmph! Don't call me that! You're not worthy!"

Madam Zhao's aura as the mistress of the house spread instantly. Li Yan still wanted to escape again, but when he saw the several strong men guarding in front of him, he knew clearly that he was no match for them!

"Come on! Catch him!"

"I would like to ask his third wife what kind of stuff she dares to bring home! If I don't show my power, I don't exist, right?" Madam Zhao rarely uses such self-referencing terms, but once she does, it means she is completely angry!

When Bai Wangqi saw this, he quickly seized the opportunity to return to his master. Seeing his master safe and sound, Bai Wangqi breathed a sigh of relief!

She was just afraid that if she was late, her master would be wronged!

Whenever he thought of those outrageous words this person had just said, and how he dared to insult his master in such a way, Bai Wangqi wished he could pull out his tendons and bones!
Not to mention that her hearing is better than the average person, so she can naturally hear more!

Seeing that the servants had the man under control, Madam Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he turned to look at Bai Qianxi, "Xi'er, I'm sorry, it's all my fault that I came late and frightened you."

"I didn't expect that this seemingly decent person would dare to do such a disgusting thing! No matter what, the Zhao family must give you an explanation for this matter!"

Thinking of what happened just now, Madam Zhao couldn't help feeling scared. She really didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be if something really happened to Xier in the Zhao family!
Whether it was the anger from His Majesty or the Third Prince, it was really not something that the Zhao family could bear! Moreover, putting all that aside, Bai Qianxi was their savior and the only offspring left by their aunt!

And the person who almost caused such serious consequences was the person in front of him!

Thinking of this, Madam Zhao looked at Li Yan with murderous intent in her eyes!
"Aunt, I'm innocent. Actually, things are not what you think. I just wanted to play a joke on my cousin Xi, and my nephew just wanted to scare her!" Li Yan cried when he met Madam Zhao's eyes, looking extremely aggrieved.

It seemed as if they had really wronged him!
However, no matter how he spoke, no one paid any attention to him. Madam Zhao looked at Bai Qianxi with a look of heartache. Although Bai Qianxi said that she was fine, Madam Zhao could not be completely relieved.

"Xi'er, please sit down first. Doctor Li, please feel Xi'er's pulse to see if there is anything wrong with her." Unable to resist Madam Zhao's enthusiasm, Bai Qianxi had no choice but to sit down.

Fortunately, after taking Bai Qianxi's pulse, Doctor Li found that apart from a slight loss of qi and blood, there was nothing wrong with her.

"Young lady, you just need to take good care of yourself for a while. The lost energy and blood will naturally be replenished in time."

She knew that Bai Qianxi had been injured before. Seeing that she really had no other problems, Madam Zhao finally put her mind at ease.

"Xier, child, couldn't you just inform us in advance if anything happened? Why did you put yourself in danger? Do you know how worried I was just now!" What if something happened to her, how would they live then!
"Aunt, I'm really fine. You really don't have to worry."

Looking at the person who cares about her, Bai Qianxi just feels warm in her heart.

"Don't worry, how can you tell me not to worry?" Seeing that she still didn't know how to admit her mistake, Madam Zhao was a little angry, "You really think you are so capable, don't you?"

"No matter how strong your abilities are, do you understand that there are always people who are better than you?"

Seeing that she was about to stop talking, Bai Qianxi quickly changed the subject, "Aunt, I was really wrong. I promise I will never do this again next time. Even if there is something wrong, I will tell you the first time, okay?"

Her tone was flattering and she almost raised her hand to swear, and only then did Madam Zhao finally let her go.

"Okay, let's put your question aside for now. The main thing now is to interrogate him thoroughly! Find out if there is someone behind the scenes who is instructing him to do this!" When it came to business, Madam Zhao's face regained its dignity.

Bai Qianxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although she dared to do this, it was entirely because of her immune to all poisons and the people who were protecting her in secret.

But she couldn't tell her aunt all this directly, not to mention that she had a hunch that even if she told her all this, she would not agree to do so!

Seeing that it was finally his turn to speak, Li Yan could not wait to speak, "Aunt is really wronged, there is really no one who ordered me to do this, and I really did not intend to do anything to cousin Xi, this is all just a joke."
