“Woman, can you stop standing? Stop the bleeding!” Sheng Yiming squeezed out these words from between his teeth. He realized that he had really lost to the calm woman.

“Oh.” Yin Chujin nodded and took two steps towards him before stopping slightly. “They took the medicine from me…”

Sheng Yiming wanted to roll his eyes. “There’s no need for medicine. Think of a way. Anyway, no medicine will work on me.”

When Yin Chujin heard that, she remembered that he had told her that he had a special physique and that the medicine did not work on him.

She helped him to sit on a big tree and checked the injury on his arm. Although his acupoints had been sealed, blood was still flowing out. His face was like a corpse again. Yin Chujin carefully unbuttoned his shirt and tore it into strips. However, in the next moment, she heard his protest…

“You tore my clothes off and you want me to go back to the city topless?”

Yin Chujin glanced at him from the corner of her eye. They were in the middle of nowhere, and there were no medicines. If she didn’t tear his clothes, would he expect her to tear her own clothes?

She could not be bothered with him. She placed the cloth on his wound and tore out several more pieces of cloth to bandage his arm. Just as she heaved a sigh of relief, she realized that the white cloth was quickly dyed red with blood. She rubbed her eyebrows and looked up to meet his eyes that were staring at her.

“What kind of physique do you have?” The blood flow was so fast and the coagulation was slow. In modern terms, it was a serious lack of platelets.

Sheng Yiming broke out in a cold sweat. She didn’t know what kind of pain he was enduring, but he was still in the mood to tease her. “I don’t know. I’ve been like this since I was young.”

Yin Chujin said, “Wait,” and looked around. Then, she stood up and walked to a place with dense foliage. She squatted down and searched carefully. Soon, she found a few puffballs. It was autumn, the season for them to mature. She found some other herbs to stop the bleeding and returned to Sheng Yiming.

“It’s useless. The medicine won’t work…”

“We’ll see. It’ll help even if it stops the bleeding for a little.” Even if she had to stuff the wound, she had to stop more blood from coming out.

Yin Chujin tore off the skin of the puffball and took out a sponge-like substance from inside to press on the bleeding area. She looked up and saw that he was indeed frowning and enduring the pain. She glanced at him and applied the medicinal herbs. Then, she tore out a strip of cloth and bandaged his wound.

Although the bleeding could not be completely stopped, at least the bleeding from the wound had slowed down.

Throughout the entire process, Sheng Yiming stared at her without blinking. He watched as she carefully treated his wound and then looked at her calm and indifferent expression. His interest in her seemed to be growing.

“Why did you save me? Since you know about your lousy physique, why are you willing to take the knife for me?” These questions lingered in Yin Chujin’s heart. She wanted to know why Sheng Yiming had been pestering her.

“Women aren’t meant to be cut. They’re meant to be pampered.” Sheng Yiming smiled devilishly. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw her roll her eyes.

“Alright, you like to be a hero. Stay here. I’ll go back first.” Yin Chujin hated hooligans and did not want to stay with him. She looked up at the sky and saw that it was almost evening. She had been knocked unconscious and carried away in the backyard of Benevolence Hall. If Zhu’er and the others knew that she was missing, they would definitely be worried.

Just as she stood up and was about to leave, Sheng Yiming reached out and pulled her back to the ground. She was held in his arms and could not struggle out. Although he was injured, he was still terrifyingly strong.

“You’re not allowed to leave! Don’t you dare leave me alone in this godforsaken place!” Sheng Yiming restrained her domineeringly, not allowing her to struggle.

“You… Sheng Yiming, let go!” Yin Chujin gritted her teeth. This bastard was being shameless to her again.

“I suddenly remembered that when you woke up just now, you also wanted to escape on your own. If you hadn’t wanted to escape, those men in black wouldn’t have surrounded you and I wouldn’t have been stabbed. Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?” Sheng Yiming breathed in her ear, causing her body to tremble.

Yin Chujin gritted her teeth and deliberately elbowed his wound. He sucked in a breath of cold air and loosened his grip on her. Once she was free, she raised her leg and wanted to run forward. However, in the next moment, she realized that she could not move.

“Unlock my acupoints!”

Sheng Yiming clicked his tongue and sighed. He looked at the fierce woman and then at his left arm. After her collision, blood stained the entire cloth again. However, he was too lazy to care. He reached out and pulled her back into his arms.

“As expected, gentle women are cuter!”

“Sheng Yiming, you bastard!”

“So you know how to scold people too.” Sheng Yiming didn’t seem to care about being scolded. He just hugged her tightly against the tree trunk. “Do you remember what I said that night? You aroused my interest. I don’t mind using some means… to get you!”

Yin Chujin rolled her eyes helplessly. What an arrogant and domineering man!

“I’m not interested in you!”

“It doesn’t matter. As long as I’m interested in you.” Sheng Yiming raised his eyebrows and chuckled. “I chased you for an hour before I got here. Are you sure you can walk back? I’ll take you back when I’m better. I’m not suitable to enter the city in my current state.”

Yin Chujin really wanted to yell at him. She didn’t want to be imprisoned like this even if she couldn’t walk back.

Seeing that she did not speak for a long time, Sheng Yiming raised his head and rubbed her head. He realized that the back of her head was swollen. He exerted strength in his hand and indeed, he heard her cry out softly.

“It hurts?”

“Of course!” Yin Chujin replied weakly. She really didn’t want to argue with him. Since he was so thick-skinned, she could only surrender.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Sheng Yiming looked around. Then, he picked Yin Chujin up and walked towards the mountain.

Yin Chujin looked at his pale face and frowned. “Put me down. Do you want to bleed to death?”

“I won’t die.” As he spoke, he continued to walk forward firmly.

When she saw the cave ahead, Yin Chujin’s eyes widened in disbelief as an idea suddenly flashed through her mind.

“Sheng Yiming, don’t tell me you want to spend the night in the cave?”

“Yeah.”

Hearing his affirmative answer, panic flashed across Yin Chujin’s eyes.

“Don’t worry, I won’t tear you apart under such circumstances.” Sheng Yiming saw through her thoughts at a glance and replied with amusement. He was interested in her, but he wouldn’t do it now. At least, not until he removed her title as Princess Consort Xiao!
