In the martial arts world, he threatens Yin Susu from the start.

Being so close, Ji Yaohua's physical condition naturally couldn't be hidden from him, given his expertise in medicine.

Such methods are something only An Yunshan would use; An Shigeng would never do them.

No wonder Ji Yaohua yearned for freedom more and more, and took the risk of coming to see Gu Hanyuan at night.

Gu Hanyuan's lips curled up, causing Ji Yaohua to gasp in surprise.

Hmm...?

Her pretty face flushed red, and she said eagerly:

"I have conveyed Master An's message. Young Master Gu, please release me. I should take my leave now."

Ji Yaohua just wanted to leave as soon as possible, otherwise she might really wake up in a strange room.

However, Gu Hanyuan would not let her have her way.

Instead of letting go, he held her even tighter.

He said meaningfully:

"Miss Ji, why are you in such a hurry? Now that we've finished discussing An Shigeng's matter, what about your own?"

Ji Yaohua was taken aback upon hearing this, and seeing that she truly could not leave, she had no choice but to give up and ask:

"What does Young Master Gu mean?"

Gu Hanyuan picked up a few strands of Ji Yaohua's hair and gently sniffed them.

Somewhat surprised, it was the scent of roses, though the fragrance was slightly muted.

Black rose?

Ji Yaohua breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Gu Hanyuan move his hand away.

Otherwise, she would lose face.

However, Gu Hanyuan's finger lightly touched her abdomen, which stunned her.

The soft laughter that reached her ears left her even more bewildered.

“Miss Ji’s possession of a delayed-acting poison cannot be hidden from me.”

Ji Yaohua's expression turned ugly for a moment.

But then she realized what she was doing and asked, bewildered:

"Can Young Master Gu solve this?"

"Of course, although the poison on Miss Ji's body is a bit strange and troublesome to cure, it is not an incurable poison."

Gu Hanyuan said calmly.

Ji Yaohua was poisoned by a delayed-acting poison, the kind of poison used to control people.

Although it is not as potent and difficult to cure as the "Three Corpse Brain God Pill" and the "Leopard Fetus Tendon-Changing Pill".

However, the poison that the An family could concoct was not something that ordinary people could cure.

Ji Yaohua was powerless to help, but for Gu Hanyuan, this kind of non-special poison was not difficult to cure.

Ji Yaohua never imagined that there would be a day when this poison could be cured.

At this moment, almost instinctively, he asked:

"Young Master Gu is willing to help me?"

Her beautiful face, as lovely as a spring flower, was filled with urgency.

Gu Hanyuan spoke languidly and casually:

"I just don't like being taken advantage of, but that doesn't mean I'm unwilling to help the beautiful Miss Ji."

Ji Yaohua was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and with a glimmer of hope, she hesitantly asked:

What are your conditions, Young Master Gu?

Gu Hanyuan chuckled meaningfully:

"Does Miss Ji truly not know?"

Ji Yaohua's heart was in turmoil.

The antidote seemed within reach, yet she couldn't make up her mind.

She was still unwilling to give up what she had.

Ji Yaohua pursed her cherry lips and asked earnestly:

"Young Master Gu, could you perhaps change your terms?"

A playful smile curved Gu Hanyuan's lips as he said calmly:

"I've heard that Miss Ji has several good sisters, and I'm quite interested in them as well."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yaohua was greatly surprised and excitedly said:

"no!"

If her body is a testament to her unique persistence...

Her sisters were her emotional support.

Gu Hanyuan's request hit her sore spot.

Freedom? Life? Innocence? Or sisters?

Ji Yaohua had never realized before how many things she cared about.

She glared at Gu Hanyuan resentfully and said dejectedly:

"Young Master Gu, please let me go."

Ji Yaohua made her choice.

It's not that she really doesn't care about detoxification.

Instead, she suddenly realized that even if she was cured of the poison, it didn't mean she could escape the control of the An family.

Not only were her girlfriends taken hostage, but she was also afraid of the An family's power.

Gu Hanyuan had anticipated this.

We'll have to wait until we get to the capital to work on all the things that need to be done to alleviate her fear of the An family and give her a sense of security.

But before that, we need to leave her with a lasting memory.

Otherwise, the person she'd be wavering between might not be herself.

Gu Hanyuan chuckled lightly, his expression enigmatic:

"Miss Ji, it's not a good habit to take advantage of others for free."

Ji Yaohua knew that her intention to use Gu Hanyuan's power to bully others was impossible to hide from him.

However, upon hearing Gu Hanyuan's claim of "getting something for free," he felt indignant.

Especially when she looked down and saw her slightly disheveled clothes, she was overcome with sorrow.

She said coldly:

"What does Young Master Gu want?"

"As I said before, I hope Miss Ji will drink with me."

Gu Hanyuan looked up at the snowflakes that were suddenly falling from the sky, picked up the wine pot, and poured himself a full cup of wine.

He said with a subtle smile:

"This wine is called Frosty Spring, it's especially good for warming the body... (Zhan)"

Gu Hanyuan finished his drink and leaned forward to meet Ji Yaohua's astonished gaze.

Ji Yaohua felt a warmth on her red lips, and a soft laugh echoed in her ear.

"This is how you drink wine for the best flavor."

Chapter 737: Lin Xian'er's Wish Fulfilled: Xian'er belongs to the young master, and always will be.

As snowflakes drifted down, the courtyard of Xingyun Manor became even quieter and more serene.

The dark clouds that Gu Hanyuan had dispersed with a single palm strike that day have returned, and snow is falling tonight.

As if to make up for the snow that hadn't fallen the day before, the snowflakes instantly became as big as goose feathers.

In the snow-covered courtyard, a man and a woman stood very close together.

The man held the woman in his arms, and at first glance it looked like they were passionately kissing.

However, there are actually many discrepancies.

The woman's wide, beautiful eyes were filled with shame, indignation, and resistance.

The man's expression was playful, as if he were merely toying with someone.

Gu Hanyuan suddenly leaned back, moving away from Ji Yaohua's pretty face.
