Chapter 109 She's not sick, but she's going to get sick from drinking.

Are you planning to leave me?

Upon hearing Su Liluo suddenly say such a thing, Xiao Ye's heart immediately tightened.

He didn't have time to think about why she would say that; all he felt was a sense of dread.

Immediately, Xiao Ye stepped forward and nervously embraced Su Liluo.

His chin rested on her soft hair.

She said anxiously, "I have no one else who moves my heart. You are my only Crown Princess. I have never thought about marrying any concubines. Don't mention giving you freedom or anything like that. I will not let you leave."

From the moment Su Liluo stepped into his sight and into his heart, he had already fallen for her.

He couldn't accept the thought that one day Su Liluo would leave him.

This feeling left him feeling empty, even more desperate than when he was framed, crippled, forced to play the victim and lie low, and bullied by Consort Liu's people in the Crown Prince's residence.

He could not tolerate such a life.

Su Liluo was held very tightly by him, and she never expected that Xiao Ye would react so strongly to her words.

She couldn't help but wonder, if he really liked her that much, then what was the woman Xiao Churen was talking about?

Although she verbally said she didn't believe Xiao Churen, her heart still wavered.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Liluo still said sullenly, "Didn't you keep a woman in Feihua Lane? Don't you plan to bring her into your household? I'm not—"

Before Su Liluo could finish speaking, Xiao Ye immediately understood that Su Liluo knew about Qi Yinyin's existence.

He quickly interrupted her, "You misunderstood. I have no feelings for that woman. It's just a long story, but I suspect she is the person who saved my life when I was a child, which is why I took care of her."

"Savior?"

Why is it this again?

Su Liluo frowned, and couldn't help but think of Su Wanshi and Xiao Churen.

She clearly remembered that in her previous life, Su Wanshi boasted in front of her that the reason she was able to become Xiao Churen's beloved was because of the jade pendant that she had snatched from her.

She thought of the person she saved when she was a child, and now she felt regret. If she had known that person was Xiao Churen, she would never have saved him even if she were beaten to death.

Now that Xiao Ye has found another savior, she can't help but feel complicated.

"Well, I just suspect that she has a token to save me. She's sick and came to the capital for treatment. I find her a bit suspicious, but I haven't found any evidence yet, so I can only keep an eye on her for now."

Xiao Ye shared his thoughts.

He had always had some doubts about Qi Yinyin's savior, and always felt that she was not like the girl from back then.

However, the jade pendant was in her possession, and it was indeed genuine, which made him feel that something was amiss, and he wanted to take it back to investigate further.

He had people monitoring Qi Yinyin, wanting to know who she would meet after arriving in the capital.

Now, he hasn't even told Su Liluo about this, yet she already knows. This means that the person behind this is trying to use Qi Yinyin to sow discord between them.

"By the way, where did you hear about this?"

Xiao Ye remembered and asked.

Su Liluo then told him about Xiao Churen's visit to him.

"The King of Chu, it was actually him?"

Xiao Ye asked in confusion.

What is his relationship with Qi Yinyin?

"There's something fishy about how he found out about this. Your savior probably isn't as simple as he seems."

Because of the incident in her past life where Su Wanshi stole the jade pendant and impersonated her, Su Liluo is now very sensitive about matters involving saviors.

I don't really believe that some physical evidence can prove something; maybe this person was also robbed like Su Wanshi.

After discussing it, the two agreed that this matter was not simple and might be related to Xiao Churen.

"So what are your plans for dealing with Qi Yinyin?"

After listening to Xiao Ye's account of Qi Yinyin's situation, Su Liluo asked a question.

"I have someone monitoring her to see who she'll contact if she gets restless."

"This... I'm afraid it's useless."

Su Liluo frowned and sighed.

“They must have a way of contacting each other that others can’t detect. Although this person may not be the King of Chu, the fact that he came to me about this matter makes it highly likely that it is.

How did the King of Chu know so clearly that she lived in Feihua Lane? Despite your defenses, he still found out.

"So what do you think we should do?"

After Su Liluo's analysis, Xiao Ye felt slightly ashamed.

Despite his tight security, the King of Chu still managed to find a loophole.

If Luo'er hadn't trusted him and been willing to be honest with him, who knows how this misunderstanding between them would have turned out.

"I want to meet this Qi Yinyin. Are you willing to let me handle your savior?"

Su Liluo thought for a moment, then calmly looked at Xiao Ye.

She wasn't actually sure if Xiao Ye would agree. She appeared calm on the surface, but she was still very nervous inside.

She wasn't sure if Xiao Ye would worry that she was persecuting his savior.

But Xiao Ye's later affirmative answer, "Of course," brought a bright smile to her lips.

The next day.

Xiao Ye then personally led Su Liluo to Feihua Lane to see Qi Yinyin.

At this moment, Qi Yinyin was pacing back and forth in the house, feeling irritated.

Since arriving in the capital, she thought she had achieved half of her goal, but after moving into this small house, Xiao Ye had never come to visit her even once.

He settled himself here, only allowing his subordinates to bring a doctor to give him a routine check-up every day. He also prescribed very bitter herbal medicine, which his maidservants forced him to drink.

These days, she's been taking so much medicine that she's gotten sick even though she wasn't.

"Girl, it's time to take your medicine again."

Just then, a maid dressed in a dark red linen dress walked down the corridor carrying a bowl of dark medicine.

Qi Yinyin's face darkened upon hearing this. "I won't drink it. This medicine is so bitter. I've been taking it for so long and my illness hasn't improved."

The maidservant still came over and offered a word of 'comfort': "Why do you say that, Miss? You've been taking your medicine every day these past few days, and you haven't had any more episodes, have you?"

She had heard that this girl either suffered from angina or became delirious in front of the Crown Prince.

But ever since His Highness the Crown Prince sent her to take care of Qi Yinyin, she has found that Qi Yinyin is in very good spirits and even gets angry.

Qi Yinyin's face darkened. "I said I won't drink, and that means I won't drink! Get it away!"

Then he reached out and touched the maid's hand, trying to knock the medicine over.

This pitch-black medicine tastes awful!

Clang!

The medicine bowl shattered on the ground, and Qi Yinyin revealed a relaxed and smug smile.

But just then, the door behind her suddenly opened.

Xiao Ye stared at Qi Yinyin with a dark expression and said coldly, "If you refuse to take the medicine, I will have someone send you back to Langya County!"

Upon hearing Xiao Ye's voice, Qi Yinyin turned around with instant joy.

"Your Highness, you've finally arrived---"

The sounds of surprise abruptly ceased.

Qi Yinyin saw a stunningly beautiful woman walking out gracefully from behind Xiao Ye.

She affectionately took Xiao Ye's arm.
