Chapter 421: Chapter 421: Toxin Out of Control!

While speaking, Mu Huaner saw Yan Qianyi standing at the door and was slightly startled.

Yan Qianyi’s eyes were cold as she looked at Mu Huaner, her lips curling into a faint cold smile.

Ah Lie was not here, so the current situation already explained that things were not as Mu Huaner had described in her message.

As expected, Mu Huaner just wanted to sow discord.

Fortunately, she believed in Ah Lie and had come to see for herself.

If she had believed what Mu Huaner had said and hadn’t come to see for herself, she would have fallen into Mu Huaner’s trap.

However, why wasn’t Ah Lie here?

And why hadn’t he answered her messages?

Yan Qianyi looked around the room again and suddenly saw a fist-sized dent in the wall, covered in blood.

From the size of the dent, it was clear it was made by a man’s fist.

An ordinary woman wouldn’t have such strength.

Yan Qianyi roughly guessed what might have happened, and with a frown, she asked Mu Huaner, who had already walked up to her, "Where is Ah Lie?"

Mu Huaner mocked, "Don’t you even know where your own husband is?"

With her plan failed, Mu Huaner felt a blaze of anger inside and looked at Yan Qianyi with undisguised disgust.

If it weren’t for Yan Qianyi’s presence, none of this would have happened tonight!

Yan Qianyi sneered, "Is this the frustration of a failed plan showing?"

"What plan? I don’t understand what you’re talking about."

"From the looks of it, you invited Ah Lie here to get him drunk, aiming to set him up with Ning Nuan, right?"

Yan Qianyi glanced at Ning Nuan inside.

The doctor was doing some emergency treatment on Ning Nuan’s wounds.

Their gazes met, and Yan Qianyi sneered, "Did not expect it to turn out this way, did you? It seems Ah Lie saw through your plan and left angrily."

One could only imagine how angry Ah Lie was from that big dent in the wall.

Mu Huaner clenched her teeth.

She had intended to provoke Yan Qianyi tonight but ended up being the laughing stock.

Her aura weakened instantly, but she still stubbornly retorted, "What are you so proud of? You also don’t know where Ah Lie has gone, right? There’s just been a little misunderstanding tonight!"

"Ah Lie is my husband, no matter where he goes, he will always come back to me. Tonight, it seems Ning Nuan will only have the doctors and nurses for company."

Yan Qianyi smiled coldly, her eyes filled with scorn and mockery.

With Mu Huaner’s eyes burning with enraged humiliation, she proudly turned around and left.

Mu Huaner stared at her retreating figure, vowing, "Yan Qianyi, your pride won’t last long. Ah Lie will definitely leave you!"

Mu Huaner had already made her decision.

If tonight’s plan failed, she would tell Ah Lie the truth.

Even though she didn’t want to go this far.

But to earn Ah Lie’s forgiveness, and even to make Ah Lie leave Yan Qianyi, she had to let him know!

Yan Qianyi didn’t look back, turning a deaf ear.

Downstairs, she called Mu Yunlie again.

This time, Mu Yunlie connected quickly.

Before he could speak, Yan Qianyi asked anxiously, "Ah Lie, where are you?"

"Wife... I miss you so much."

Yan Qianyi paused.

That thick nasal voice, tinged with a timid, milky tone.

It was Xiao Ah Lie!

How could this be...

She had clearly controlled the poison in his body.

Although he hadn’t been getting his acupuncture as regularly as before, he had been taking his medication on time, and the toxins in his body shouldn’t have spiraled out of control.

If the silver needle had developed resistance to his medications and acupuncture therapy, then...

Yan Qianyi raised her hand to her forehead, not daring to think further, and asked, "Where are you right now?"

"I don’t know, it’s all dark around me... I’m a bit scared..."

"Don’t be afraid, I’m coming to find you right now. Don’t hang up; have Ah Chang send me your location."

"Okay, come quickly, I really miss you so much." After Mu Yunlie finished speaking, he instructed Ah Chang, "Quick, send my wife my location."

When Yan Qianyi opened the location, she found that Mu Yunlie was nearby.

Each time the poison acted up, Mu Yunlie’s neurotransmitters would malfunction, sending incorrect signals to his body and consciousness.

At that moment, he was like a child without a sense of security, everything around him causing uncontrollable panic.

To ease his pain, Yan Qianyi followed the location while talking to him.

"Don’t be scared, Ah Lie, I will be in front of you very soon."

"Then, wife, sing a song for me."

Yan Qianyi was in no mood to sing right now.

The toxins, which had been under control, were now suddenly flaring up, indicating a problem with his body that even she couldn’t manage, and it was highly likely to endanger his life.

At that moment, all she wanted to do was to find him quickly to see what was happening.

"Be good, Ah Lie, I’ll sing for you when we get back, I’m almost there."

The road ahead grew darker, and Yan Qianyi turned on the flashlight on her wristband.

Whenever Mu Yunlie’s poison flared up, he liked to hide in dark, deserted corners.

Yet at such times, he was obviously so afraid of the dark.

The darkness gave him a sense of security yet paradoxically made him feel fearful.

In this agonizing situation, his nerves would become more sensitive, and then he’d fall into a vicious cycle.

"Wife! I see you!"

Hearing this, Yan Qianyi looked up.

She saw a figure sprinting toward her in the dark.

It was too dark around, and Mu Yunlie couldn’t see the path under his feet, running in a stumbling manner.

Yan Qianyi appeared like a beam of light in his troubled world.

At that moment, he knew that if he just recklessly ran towards that light and tightly embraced her, the anxious world inside him would calm down.

The next moment, Yan Qianyi was embraced fully by Mu Yunlie.

Yan Qianyi had hurried out to find Mu Yunlie and was wearing thin clothes, standing in the night air she felt a chill all over.

When Mu Yunlie held her in his arms, the harsh night wind was completely blocked by him, and suddenly she felt much warmer.

Feeling the chill around his neck, Yan Qianyi asked, "Are you very cold?"

Each time the poison acted, his whole body would become cold.

On winter nights on Capital Star, it was bone-chillingly cold, and she didn’t know how long he had been alone in that freezing corner.

The more she thought about it, the more heartbroken she felt.

"It was very cold, but now that I’m holding my wife, it’s not cold anymore."

Yan Qianyi took his icy hand, "Let’s go, we’re going home."

Her fingers felt something sticky, and she looked down.

She saw that the back of Mu Yunlie’s hand was a bloody mess!

Yan Qianyi gasped sharply and quickly let go of his hand.

The dent in the wall, it was indeed caused by him.

Her brows furrowed with distress, "I’m sorry, I hurt you."

She had forgotten about it in her rush to get him home and hadn’t realized that she was holding his injured hand.

Mu Yunlie, however, just smiled, "It doesn’t hurt."

Yan Qianyi took his other hand and hurriedly led him to the car.
