After spitting out the blood, Shen Siyan's condition seemed to improve. His breathing became steady, and his body no longer felt hot and cold. His eyes gradually regained their luster.

He slowly raised his head and saw Ye Yunzi's worried face - no matter how strong the wind and waves were, they could not shake her expression, but at this moment she was filled with anxiety.

Shen Siyan reached out and gently stroked her cheek.

"Yunzi."

"Si Yan!" Ye Yunzi's eyes instantly focused on him. The familiar voice and breath made her burst into tears and her vision became blurred.

"I'm sorry to have made you worry." Shen Siyan whispered, gently wiping away her tears.

Ye Yunzi tried to calm down and calm her emotions. She knew that now was not the time to be sentimental.

"Si Yan, how do you feel now? It's very dangerous here. We have to leave here as soon as possible." Ye Yunzi said as she helped him up.

"I'm fine. I feel like the poison has been lifted. Thank you, Yunzi."

As Shen Siyan spoke, he looked at the black blood he had just vomited on the ground. There were a few small insects mixed in it - they were the poisonous insects in his body, which were expelled from his body under the effect of the antidote.

He breathed a sigh of relief, remembering his previous experience of losing consciousness due to the poison. If the poison had not been removed in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.

"That's good. Let's go quickly and ask Doctor Xue to take a look." Ye Yunzi tried to help him up.

But Shen Siyan didn't move.

"Si Yan?"

He stared at Ye Yunzi with deep eyes: "We can't leave now."

"Why? It's not safe here. It's too dangerous to stay here. Let's leave first."

"No."

Shen Siyan shook his head: "I have one more thing to do."

Ye Yunzi's heart was filled with worry, and her hands unconsciously clenched Shen Siyan's sleeves.

"Everything can wait. Now that the poison has just been resolved, I don't want you to take any more risks."

Shen Siyan stared at her quietly, without saying a word.

"I'm willing to stay with you no matter what you want to do, but the most important thing now is to get out of here."

Ye Yunzi's words were filled with pleading, and her fear and anxiety surged from the bottom of her heart. She had finally rescued him from danger, and she was afraid of losing him again.

However, looking at Shen Siyan's determined eyes, she swallowed the words that came to her lips. The two looked at each other silently, and they could understand each other's thoughts without words.

Ye Yunzi's hands trembled slightly, and she tightly grasped his sleeves, her eyes revealing deep worry.

Shen Siyan gently pulled her closer and hugged her tightly: "I promise you, I will come back."

Ye Yunzi's body trembled slightly and tears welled up in her eyes.

"We can't stay in the Shen Mansion any longer."

Shen Siyan's voice was low and filled with a hint of sadness. His eyes were fixed on the flickering candlelight, and his expression looked particularly heavy.

"History seems to be repeating itself..." He sighed softly, as if talking to himself.

Ye Yunzi felt the loneliness and sadness in Shen Siyan's heart.

The Shen Mansion is where he grew up, and every inch of land carries his memories. Even though he knows that he is not from this place, he still regards it as his home.

But now, he has to make a difficult choice to correct past mistakes.

In his previous life, he stood up for justice and personally ended the sins of the Shen family, but he was also saddled with a ruthless reputation. In this life, fate seemed to have placed the same burden on his shoulders again.

"Si Yan!"

Ye Yunzi gently stroked his back, trying to give him some comfort: "No matter what happens, I will always be by your side."

"Even if the whole world leaves you, I will not give up on you."

Shen Siyan was burdened with too much and was almost crushed by the responsibility. Ye Yunzi didn't know if her comfort could really help him, but she was determined to at least be his support.

"Yun Zi!" Shen Siyan's voice was a little choked.

"I am here."

"Thank you, Yunzi, it's great to have you around." His voice trembled slightly.

Tears welled up in Ye Yunzi's eyes. Since she couldn't share his pain, she would accompany him to face it together.

"I will never leave you, Si Yan." She said firmly.

As night fell, Princess Nanyue stood in the courtyard, gazing deeply into the distance. Her face was covered by a layer of shadow, making her look particularly serious.

A guard returned with injuries, knelt on one knee, and reported to her: "Princess, we failed to catch them. I have failed your expectations. Please punish me."

"With so many of you, how could you let four targets slip away right before your noses?" The princess' voice was icy cold, making people shudder.

"It's not four, it's three people, and one of them is good at using poison..." The guard's voice trembled, and he was obviously afraid.

"Poison?"

A trace of doubt flashed across the princess's eyes, and she recalled the previous failure. Madam Shen had sent people to hunt down Ye Yunzi and others, but each time they failed because the other party used poison.

"Could it be Ye Yunzi?"

Suddenly, she frowned and said, "Wait, there were originally four people, why are there only three left? Where did the fourth one go?"

The guard remained silent, obviously unable to give an answer.

The princess felt uneasy, realizing that the situation might be far more complicated than she had imagined. What if the missing person had returned to the Shen Mansion and discovered their secret...

"waste!"

She shouted angrily, then turned around and ordered: "Return to the Shen Mansion immediately!"

Elsewhere, Tao Qiming and the man in black had just escaped from danger. They looked so miserable that it was unclear whether their bodies were covered in blood or sweat.

When Tao Qiming finally stopped breathing, he murmured to himself: "Finally escaped."

However, a figure approaching quickly in the distance made him nervous again: "Oh no, there are pursuers!"

Just as he was about to continue running away, a hand grabbed him by the back of the collar.

"Ah! Don't kill me!" he screamed in horror and tried to fight back with poison powder.

"It's me." A calm and familiar voice stopped him.

Hearing this voice, Tao Qiming breathed a sigh of relief and recognized Leng Xue: "Leng Xue, it turned out to be you."

Leng Xue let go of her hand: "Yes, I escaped too."

Tao Qiming finally relaxed completely and said gratefully, "That's great. I was worried about whether you guys got out safely."

"What should we do now? The person who got on the carriage is the real Young Master Shen. How can we help him detoxify?" Tao Qiming asked anxiously, and at the same time noticed that Ye Yunzi was missing from Leng Xue's side.

He was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Where is Miss Ye? Why is she not with you?"

A trace of worry flashed across Leng Xue's face: "Miss... " Her brows frowned unconsciously.

"What happened?"

Tao Qiming's heart suddenly became nervous, and he couldn't help but grab Leng Xue's shoulders: "Where is Miss Ye now?"

"The young lady has gone back to the Shen Mansion." Leng Xue replied calmly.

"what?"

Tao Qiming's eyes widened: "Why would she go back? There are guards there waiting to catch us. Isn't this just walking into a trap?"

"The young lady said that the man on the futon is the real Young Master Shen, and she must go back to detoxify him." Leng Xue explained.
