"How can I trust you? What if I do what you say and you go back on your word?"

Concubine Li is now standing on the edge of the cliff with Shen Xiaoran in her arms. As long as she takes a step back, she can jump off. Who knows what she will do next.

"I just want you to suffer. Killing you is enough for me to achieve my goal. This little baby's life is not important to me. I can promise you that as long as you die, I will never touch him."

"I want you to swear, swear on Qi Ye, if you break your promise, Qi Ye will never be reincarnated."

Because of her rebirth experience, Shen Wan somewhat believed in such mysterious things.

However, the main purpose of her wasting words was to delay it as long as possible in order to find an opportunity to take action.

It is impossible for people to remain highly alert all the time. Naturally, the longer time passes, the greater the possibility of finding opportunities.

Regardless of whether she would really let Shen Xiaoran go in the end and ask her to swear a poisonous oath with Qi Ye, Princess Li couldn't do it.

Even just hearing the curse words spit out from Shen Wan's mouth, her expression changed obviously.

"Your son's life is now in my hands, Shen Wan, you are not qualified to negotiate terms with me!"

"I will count down to three. If you still refuse to pick up the dagger and kill yourself, I will take your son and jump from here together."

Her patience running out, Concubine Li threatened coldly. As she spoke, she couldn't help but take another half step back, "Three, two,..."

"Don't get excited, I'll do as you say!" Shen Wan spoke up to stop the other party before he finished counting the last one.

As she spoke, she slowly knelt down and picked up the dagger thrown at her feet, but her eyes remained fixed on Concubine Li, looking for a possible breakthrough to save Shen Xiaoran.

The position where Concubine Keli stood was too dangerous, and with the half-step she took just now, she was completely pushed to the edge of the cliff.

Shen Wan knew that her man was following behind and he would not be able to watch her commit suicide, but given the current situation, he would not dare to take action rashly.

While thinking, he had already picked up the dagger.

Seeing this, Princess Li impatiently urged: "Don't wait so long, do it quickly!"

Judging from the current situation, maybe she can only deal with it first. Anyway, she did it herself. At the position of the heart, she can pierce it a little sideways and shallowly, so that it will not be fatal.

Seeing her pricking herself, Concubine Li would definitely relax when she felt that it was too pleasing to people's hearts.

But Concubine Fanli relaxed for a moment. She believed that her men would definitely seize the opportunity to take action.

Just as he was about to take action, something suddenly occurred to him. Shen Wan raised her eyes and looked at Concubine Li suspiciously.

"This child has always cried and fussed, and he doesn't like to be held by strangers. Why is he so quiet in your arms?"

"Don't worry, I just gave him some stupefying drugs. The dose is not large. I just need to sleep a little longer and he will be fine. Children love to cry. If I don't stun him, how can I take him away if he makes a fuss."

"But he doesn't respond at all now, so how can I rest assured? What if that's just your rhetoric? Let me see him. Only if we make sure he's fine can our transaction continue."

Concubine Li was very vigilant. Naturally, it was impossible for Shen Wan to come forward or hand the child to her, so she raised her hand and squeezed Shen Xiaoran's arm hard.

The little guy who was sleeping soundly was woken up by someone and started crying with a "wow" sound.

"Can you rest assured now?" Concubine Li raised her eyes and looked at Shen Wan.

I don't know whether he was angry because of the pain, or because he realized that the person holding him was a strange face he had never seen before. After Shen Xiaoran came to his senses, he raised his little hand and scratched Concubine Li's face.

The child, who was a few months old, originally had no lethality, but the little guy took out a hairpin from nowhere and stuck it into Concubine Li's chin.

The sharp touch made her startled.

Just as she was lost in thought, Qi Yan quickly rushed over and snatched the child away. At the same time, he turned his hand and hit Concubine Li on the left shoulder.

This palm brought internal force, and Princess Li's internal organs were shattered. Blood flowed down the corner of her mouth. Her body became unstable and fell straight back into the abyss.

"Does it hurt?" Qi Yan frowned as he looked at the bruises on the little guy's arm.

"Wow!"

In order to wake him up, Concubine Li used a lot of strength. It must have hurt when she pinched him. Shen Xiaoran probably didn't know whether it still hurts now.

Anyway, when I saw my parents, I felt very aggrieved. Being held in the arms of a man, the little guy was crying with his mouth flat and his big watery eyes, and the golden beans were falling out.

Letting Concubine Li die like this would be an advantage for her. A gloom flashed in Qi Yan's eyes, and he turned to look at the little guy in his arms, becoming gentle again.

"I'll put some medicine on you and it won't hurt anymore. Be good and stop crying."

Asking Shen Wan to help, Qi Yan took out the ointment for reducing swelling and blood stasis, gently applied it on Shen Xiaoran's arm, rubbed it all away, and then leaned over and blew on the affected area.

Looking at the man who was more attentive than her mother, Shen Wan frowned doubting her life.
