Chapter 240: Chapter 240: Life Savior

She blurted out, "Where’s Yan Sijue?"

Jason’s face darkened, "Why are you asking about him? At this moment, he’s certainly safe and sound in his company!"

Safe and sound...

Mu Yiliang instinctively breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s good that he’s not dead. Knowing that being injected with such a large dose at once could definitely be fatal, it’s a relief that he’s fine, meaning her sacrifice wasn’t in vain.

Thinking of the shot in her shoulder, she instinctively moved, and the scorching pain made her gasp sharply!

"Don’t move!" Jason suddenly pressed her down, hesitated for a moment and said, "Mu, do you remember what happened at that time?"

At that time...

Of course, she remembered.

However, the scene upon waking was somewhat different from what she originally expected.

She frowned slightly, looked around at her surroundings, which were completely unfamiliar.

"Where is this?"

"This is..."

"This is my private estate." Jason was about to explain but was interrupted by a clear male voice.

Mu Yiliang was taken aback and instinctively looked towards the source of the voice, seeing a tall, lean figure.

The person was walking towards her against the light, steps unhurried but each one seemed especially powerful, appearing casual yet full of vigilance, like a predator ready to strike, poised to deliver a lethal blow if the prey let down its guard.

Mu Yiliang instinctively felt this person was no simple figure!

Soon, the man walked up to her, a smile playing at his lips, "Lady Mu, are you alright?"

"You are..." She looked at the man in front of her with surprise, trying hard to search her memory, finally determining that she didn’t know this man.

The man before her appeared to be quite young, about twenty-five, with brows like knives and eyes like morning stars, a very handsome man, carrying a perfectly measured smile on his lips, making him seem warm and approachable.

"My surname is Qiao, Lady Mu can call me Ye Bai." He smiled slightly, placing a hand on Jason’s shoulder, "Jason and I are old friends, I’m sorry that we’re only meeting now, Lady Mu."

Old friends?

Mu Yiliang glanced at Jason again, only to find his expression seemed somewhat awkward and unnatural.

Obviously, their relationship wasn’t as simple as this man said.

"Hello." She nodded slightly to greet him, but the movement inadvertently pulled on her wound, causing her to wince in pain.

"Lady Mu, please rest well, no need to be polite." Qiao Yebai gave a light laugh, glancing at her with interest, his eyes momentarily sparkling.

After speaking, he patted Jason’s shoulder again and left the room.

Mu Yiliang immediately glared at Jason, "What on earth is going on?"

Jason took a deep breath, "He could be considered your savior... When I found you, your body was cold and you had lost a lot of blood, luckily he brought a doctor in time, otherwise, even if I sent you to the hospital right away, you might have bled out and it would have been hard to say if you’d be alright."

"But how was he able to arrive in time?" Mu Yiliang asked sharply, "When did you know such a character? Why do I know nothing about it?"

Jason hesitated for a moment but decided to come clean, "Qiao Yebai is a rising power, now becoming the local boss over in City X, his name is well-known in Southeast Asia, and he has big ambitions. I met him by chance, helped him out a few times..."
