Mo Yunchen nodded, signaling Mo Sheng to prepare for departure.
A group of people left the club, and from a room within the club, Qi Tianshang leaned against the windowsill, watching Mo Yunchen and Qin Qin leave, his lips slightly lifted in amusement.
Han Ye stood behind Qi Tianshang, his expression as thin and cold as ice, "Honorable Master, why not just take her by force?"
He had followed the Honorable Master for over a decade, and the Master had always been decisive and ruthless. This time, it was clear that he wanted Miss Qin, and yet he didn’t just take her, instead going to such great lengths. Even he couldn’t figure out what the Honorable Master was really planning.
Qi Tianshang turned around with a low chuckle, "Don’t you think it’s interesting? How interesting it is, to wait until Mo Yunchen has no strength left to resist, and then watch as his woman is taken by another. How delightful!"
He had so readily given them the Heavenly Heart Grass—was he really that kind-hearted? Of course not!
No one knew better than he the true use of Heavenly Heart Grass; even if Qin Qin was reluctant, Mo Yunchen would definitely take the Heavenly Heart Grass. Afterwards, his body would become weaker and weaker. Do they really think half a month is enough? How could that be possible? The Heavenly Heart Grass he had prepared was special; if it was only half a month, how could it possibly make Qin Qin seek him out on her own!
Back at the villa, Qin Qin first entered her son and daughter’s room, watched the two little ones sleeping soundly, and then returned to her own bedroom.
She took out the box containing the Heavenly Heart Grass from her space, her brow fiercely furrowed as she looked at it.
Mo Yunchen entered through the door; Qin Qin hid the box behind her back and looked at Mo Yunchen as he walked towards her.
Seeing that Mo Yunchen seemed to be reaching for the Heavenly Heart Grass, she grabbed his hand, "Mo Yunchen, I feel things aren’t that simple!"
Going to great lengths to infect her with the Scorching Heart Gu, then taking so long to give her the Antidote, and giving it to her so easily—could it all really be so simple?
That man must also know that Mo Yunchen would take the Heavenly Heart Grass, and that after taking it, Mo Yunchen’s body would be weak for half a month. This was a side effect of the Heavenly Heart Grass.
Could that man be in cahoots with Jing Zhimei? Was his purpose truly just for her?
Mo Yunchen held Qin Qin, and with a reverse grip, he caught her hand and deftly took the Heavenly Heart Grass from behind her, "Do you want me to watch you leave me, Qinqin? You can’t be so cruel! Even if there is a conspiracy, I will stand in front of you and not let anyone hurt you."
If she could guess it was a conspiracy, how could Mo Yunchen not know?
Qin Qin’s eyes reddened slightly, and she lifted her hand to touch Mo Yunchen’s face, "Fool, you big fool!"
How could she not love him when he was ?
"But I don’t want to see you suffer so much because of me."
She threw herself into his embrace, and Qin Qin’s head rested on Mo Yunchen’s body.
The blood from the heart is not so easily obtained; extracting the blood from the heart is more painful than having one’s heart gouged out.
How could she just watch him suffer?
"Mo Yunchen, no, please don’t!"
Her tears fell on him, dampening his chest.
Holding her in his arms, Mo Yunchen’s phoenix eyes were profound as he kissed her forehead, "Fine, I promise you!"
"Mm, we won’t extract it for now. Perhaps there are other methods. After all, we have taken back the Heavenly Heart Grass. Can you see if there are any other ways?"
Comforting her heart, Mo Yunchen whispered softly.
Qin Qin nodded. The Scorching Heart Gu required the blood from the heart taken with Heavenly Heart Grass; she would think about it, to see if there was an alternative.
She had about a month left of her life, and in this month, she had to figure out a way.
Late at night, Mo Yunchen opened his eyes to look at Qin Qin sleeping soundly in his arms, her cheeks marked with burn scars, her smooth and fair hands covered in wounds. Seeing her , his gaze grew even deeper and darker.
With a gentle kiss on her forehead, Mo Yunchen got up and tucked her in properly.
Before sleep, he personally fed her a glass of milk spiked with Sleeping Drug, fearing she would taste it, so he used a kiss to feed her.
Mo Sheng’s low voice came from outside the door, and Mo Yunchen took one last look at Qin Qin, left the room, and shut the door.
The two entered a room not far away; Mo Yunchen’s villa was well soundproofed, so there was no need to worry about Qin Qin hearing anything.
Once inside the room, Mo Tang was already waiting inside, with everything Mo Yunchen needed prepared beside him.
In a porcelain bowl was a brew of Heavenly Heart Grass decoction, along with a slender and sharp knife, and a thin, transparent glass tube with a sharp Silver Needle at one end, hollow inside.
Mo Yunchen sat down next to Mo Tang without hesitation, drank the Heavenly Heart Grass decoction in front of him, and waited.
