held the teacup, his gaze dimming with a single word.Since I was branded a traitor, those who used to fawn over me have all deserted me. Those loyal to me were banished to Ningguta. My entire manor h...Qingxuan returned to the palace with unsteady steps, holding the supplies Fu Qing had bought for her.

As she emerged from the secret passage, she felt a searing gaze upon her.

At this time, Nangong Ye was no longer the way he usually lay still on the bed.

He sat on the bed, holding a glass of water in his hand. Although his hand was still trembling from just regaining consciousness, Nangong Ye didn't spill any of the water inside.

He recovered very well, exceeding her expectations once again!

Qingxuan thought that today, Nangong Ye would at most be able to do things like moving his hands and carrying water cups - tasks requiring more delicate movements. It would take Nangong Ye at least three days to do those well.

Although his hands were shaking uncontrollably as he held the water glass, not a drop spilled.

Qing Xuan walked up to Nangong Ye's side. Before she could even compliment him, Nangong Ye had already offered her a cup of water.

Nan Gong Ye: "Hard work."

He held the water glass, practicing his finger grip besides, and was actually waiting for her to come back so he could give her a drink.

Her heart felt as if it were wrapped in a warm embrace. Taking the water South Palace Ye handed her, all fatigue seemed to vanish in that instant.

Nangong Ye saw the fatigue in her eyes.

"Seon-re, how was your outing today"

Thinking of Fu Qing's distrust of her medical skills, almost preventing her from operating on Jiang Yue, Qing Xuan paused with the water glass in her hand.

Qingxuan: “It went smoothly, but there were a few minor hiccups.”

She told Nangong Ye everything that happened today when she went to do surgery on Jiang Yue.

Qingxuan: "So the people who want to kill you are from the Yan state. Do you know who specifically wants to kill you"

Nan Gong Ye, hearing this, furrowed his brows: "I have never had any grievances with the Yan Guo tribe."

Qingxuan was astonished. "No grudge Then why would they want to kill you Or are they also acting on someone else's orders"

Namgung Yeop shook his head.

Since he was poisoned, he has been thinking about who the mastermind behind it all is.

But there aren't many leads.

Qingxuan comforted Nangong Ye by patting his face, which was unusually grave.

Qingxuan: "It's okay, your body will gradually get better now. I don't know who it was before, but in the future, we will investigate together. We will find all those who have harmed you and repay them tenfold!"

Right now, Qingxuan is especially lively because she's imagining those people who hurt him getting angry seriously.

NanGong Ye leaned forward, cupping Qingxuan's face. Before she could react, NanGong Ye's lips were pressed against hers.

"Um..."

Qingxuan's face instantly flushed red like an apple.

At this moment, Qingxuan felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

At first, Nangong Ye's kiss was like the gentle rain of early spring. But gradually, the kiss became more and more domineering, until she felt like she couldn't breathe, that's when Nangong Ye finally stopped.

Nan Gong Ye's entire body was in a state of varying degrees of muscle atrophy. After maintaining that posture for so long, he was sweating profusely and his face was flushed red.

Qingxuan immediately helped Nangong Ye to lie down when she saw what happened.

Qingxuan gasped for breath: “You rest first, go outside and get some water.”

She didn't know what expression to use when facing Nangong Ye, so she simply ran out.

Seeing Qingxuan's flustered and fleeing back, Nangong Ye couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Hearing laughter coming from behind her, Qingxuan almost lost her footing in the dim moonlight and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly.

Qingxuan stood by the well for a long time, and only then did the heat on her face subside.

Originally, she was still going to tell Nan Gong Ye about treating Zhang Jin's mother's illness. As a result of Nan Gong Ye's kiss, she completely forgot about it.

She entered the room. That night, she slept beside Namgung Yeop. Though they hadn't done anything, just shared a blanket, her heart beat wildly again.

Qingxuan:：“……”

How could she sleep like that

Qing turned, her eyes opening as she looked towards the short bed. She wanted to crawl back into it, but instead, met Nangong Ye's deep gaze.ncess Ling's daughter-in-law oppressed her, the daughter-in-law admits it all.Even a daughter-in-law can die to show her loyalty!But now, as the daughter-in-law has yet to begin her diagnosis, Princes...
