Transmigrating to a Female-Dominated World: Handsome Men Keep Chasing After Me

Chapter 31

Liu Qishan couldn't see her, so he could only judge her injuries by listening to Nalan Jingwen's breathing. He knew she was badly injured, but she had used the only medicine to stop the bleeding on herself.

He pulled his hand away, forcibly pried open the clenched fist, and felt a sticky residue on his palm, which made him shudder again.

"Nalan Jingwen, you must live."

Upon hearing his own name, Nalan Jing suddenly snapped out of his daze, a look of surprise in his eyes as he gazed at Liu Qishan.

The latter looked at her with those lifeless eyes, firm yet gentle.

She suddenly had a bad feeling.

Liu Qishan took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and forcibly stuffed it into her mouth, making sure she swallowed it before revealing a gentle smile.

"You always say I'm smart, and when you tell me your name, I know who you are."

"When I found you, you were wearing the gold-embroidered heavy feathers specially provided by the Phoenix Heaven Royal Family. I had a guess in my mind. I didn't ask your name because I was afraid you would become suspicious. When you said your name was Jingwen, I immediately confirmed my guess."

“The Prince of Fengtian is a spoiled and arrogant playboy who does all sorts of evil deeds. Such a wicked person has fallen for the son of the Prime Minister. After that, he went on a military campaign for nearly two years, and I found you in the mountains, seriously injured and on the verge of death. If I’m not mistaken, you did it for Rong Hengyu, didn’t you?”

Nalan Jingwen listened quietly, her eyes fixed on him. She should have realized it sooner; Nalan Jingwen's reputation was known far and wide, and everyone knew him, especially someone as intelligent as him.

She didn't know what the pill was for, but there was one thing she was certain of: it wasn't poison.

"Since you know who I am, why are you still putting on an act with me?"

Liu Qishan simply smiled gently, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Acting? You think I'm acting with you?"

Nalan Jingwen remained silent, as if acknowledging his statement. His hot tears fell onto her palm.

"My marriage to you, my sharing of your bed, and our sleeping in the same room are all genuine, not just an act!"

"Liu Qishan never puts on an act with anyone, and he would never use feelings as a bargaining chip."

Nalan Jingwen opened his mouth slightly, and then he continued, "I only love Nalan Jingwen."

Nalan Jingwen was startled, and his eyes held an indescribable emotion as he looked at him.

"you……"

"Are you trying to say that, knowing you are such a wicked person, and that everyone despises you, why would I like you alone?"

Liu Qishan gently pulled her uninjured hand and intertwined their fingers.

“You know I’m blind. I don’t see you with my eyes, but with this…”

He pressed her hand to his heart, and Nalan Jingwen could even clearly feel his heart beating so passionately in his chest.

“I look at you with all my heart, so Nalan Jingwen is the best woman in the world.”

She was the person Liu Qishan cherished most.

His smile grew even gentler, but Nalan Jingwen felt increasingly uneasy. She tried to reach out and grab him, but suddenly realized that she couldn't move! She couldn't even speak!

She was certain she wasn't poisoned, so there was only one possibility...

The pill that Liu Qishan just fed her!

Her pupils constricted as she stared intently at Liu Qishan, but he seemed oblivious, continuing to speak to himself.

"I regret it. I don't want to die with you. I just want you to live, to live well."

"Regardless of life or death, we will never leave each other..."

"If I break my promise first, then let me go to hell first, okay?"

He asked gently, his trembling hand covering her cheek, caressing it greedily.

"That medicine can protect your heart, but you will have to be unable to move for the time being."

He cupped her face in his hands and placed a kiss on her forehead with a devout and resolute gesture.

"I love you, remember me."

Nalan Jingwen tried to move countless times, but she still couldn't move an inch. She could only watch helplessly as Liu Qishan let go of her hand and staggered to her feet.

The pain in his ankle made it impossible for him to maintain his smile, and he leaned against the stone wall, panting.

Those eyes that had once captivated her now shone so brightly in the dim cave, like a spark ignited in the darkness.

"I wish to be a beast in the distance, walking side by side with you every step of the way."

"I wish to be a tree deep in the mountains, with branches intertwined and interdependent..."

Branches intertwined...

It sounds so familiar, like I've heard it somewhere before...

Nalan Jingwen's eyes were bloodshot, and veins bulged on her forehead. She looked at Liu Qishan's staggering back and listened to his increasingly indistinct murmurs. She felt as if all the blood in her body had turned cold and frozen. She was powerless and could only watch Liu Qishan get further and further away from her.

All I could do was watch him stagger and fall, then get up again, over and over again.

She had always considered herself a cold-blooded and ruthless person, someone who would give up everything and use anyone to survive. But she was punished, punished like never before. Her heart was in so much pain, as if her soul was being torn apart, ripped in two, a pain that her flesh and blood could not bear!

Tears fell, burning her so much she almost suffocated.

How long has it been since she last cried?

It's been so long, so long that she can't even remember anymore.

She had told herself since childhood that crying wouldn't solve anything, so even when faced with betrayal, she never cried out of pain.

Liu Qishan is a liar!

He said he loved her, but he left her all alone here!

He's a liar, and also the most foolish person!

There is absolutely no one in this world worth him risking his life for!

Nalan Jingwen was in unbearable torment, feeling utterly desolate and forlorn. She heard Liu Qishan lead those people away and heard the chaotic footsteps heading further west.

Suddenly remembering something, he shuddered and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

west……

It's a cliff!

Liu Qishan actually wanted to lure them to the cliff! But if he did that, he would have nowhere to retreat!

Her eyes were bloodshot as she frantically tried to circulate her inner energy. Her dantian was like a huge black hole, completely still. She began to try to extract the power that had been fused with her. Since it could not be used by her, it was of no use to keep it in her body!

As her strength was gradually drained, her whole body trembled violently from the pain, and blood gushed from her mouth, staining her wedding dress like fire.

But she still refused to give up, stubbornly pulling out that domineering power. Her dantian was also damaged, and she began to feel dizzy, but she still gritted her teeth and persevered.

The skin began to crack, the original wound was torn and enlarged, fresh blood flowed out continuously, and the tendons and veins were broken inch by inch.

The excruciating pain overwhelmed her, making it almost impossible to breathe, but she had no other choice; she had to find Liu Qishan!

She must save him!

That power was completely extracted and rampaged through her body, but the only thing that made her feel fortunate was that she could actually move.

With a thud, he collapsed to the ground, his tendons and veins severed, leaving him as a cripple!

It shouldn't be like this!

He gritted his teeth and circulated his internal energy, trying to repair his meridians and suppress that power.

I tried countless times, but it still didn't work.

How to do?

What should I do?!

Despair enveloped her. The image of that figure in green kept flashing before her eyes, that gentle smile, that resolute turning back, haunting her like a nightmare.

Liu Qishan...
