CHAPTER 1396: CHAPTER 1395: THE WOMAN I ONCE LIKED, WHO EXACTLY IS SHE?

For a period of time, Liujin studied Chu Qianli’s novel medical techniques.

Blood exchange and poison release, although he understood them before, testing blood compatibility was taught to him by Chu Qianli.

Chu Qianli said that after testing, there is a greater chance to rule out accidental blood incompatibility.

This avoids most situations where blood conflicts intensify the patient’s condition.

Blood exchange was rarely used in their era, and each time it was with extreme caution, as it could cost lives at any moment.

"Your Majesty, your blood..."

After several experiments, Liujin cautiously revealed the result: "Your blood... is most suitable."

"Then use mine!"

Little Shunzi wanted to say something, but Chu Jiangnan glared at him: "If it hadn’t been for Lili, I fear I wouldn’t be alive today. Now that Lili is in trouble, how could I stand by idly?"

"But, Your Majesty, your health..."

"I’ll proceed with discretion, in moderation. When the Prince returns, please call him in; I also want to test his blood."

"Why him?" Feng Yexuan was a bit angry; why wasn’t his blood the best choice?

"Miss Chu mentioned before, between brothers, the possibility of blood compatibility is higher."

Liujin had no time to explain and nodded towards Chu Jiangnan: "Your Majesty, please!"

"Alright!"

The two walked into the inner chamber.

Outside, Yang Xun arrived: "Your humble servant requests an audience with His Majesty."

Little Shunzi immediately went out, returning shortly in haste: "Prince, the Prince and the others have returned."

"Quick, invite the Prince!"

...The Prince’s blood was indeed suitable.

That night, Liujin was tirelessly treating Chu Qianli.

As dawn approached, they finally heard from Liujin: The situation has stabilized.

Chu Jiangnan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling physically drained, and Little Shunzi hurriedly helped him inside to rest.

Chu Lingyang still had blood stains on him, and Liujin persuaded him to return to his mansion to rest.

Not until Liujin repeatedly assured that Miss Chu would recover did Feng Yexuan agree to leave and see Leng Ji, who had been waiting for a long time.

"What is it?" He had been insisting on seeing him; if it wasn’t something important, he might kick Leng Ji out.

Leng Ji could tell that the Prince had no intention of leaving Miss Chu’s room.

But this matter... was somewhat important.

He said softly: "Prince, Miss Fen refuses to leave the carriage, and thus became the target of an assassination attempt. She..."

"How is she?" Feng Yexuan’s head began to ache again.

It turned out that throughout the entire night, he had completely forgotten about Fen Ling!

But his feelings at this moment were complex.

Seeing the dead woman poisoned, he would rather be the one poisoned.

But Fen Ling... why was Fen Ling the one his heart cared about?

This feeling was clearly very contradictory!

"Leng Ji." He suddenly called out.

Leng Ji inexplicably felt a chill down his spine; the Prince rarely called him so seriously, could it be that he was being blamed for inadequate protection?

"The woman I once liked, who was she?"

This question left Leng Ji silent for a while.

Afterward, he hesitated: "With Miss Chu, you once loved and fought, shared life-and-death, made vows to never interact again amidst misunderstanding, and reconciled after seeing true feelings through adversity."

"There was hatred and enmity, and also deep affection. At good times, you’d die for her; at bad times, you once hated her to the bone..."

Leng Ji looked at Feng Yexuan. Even he couldn’t comprehend this question.

"The last time you met Miss Chu, she teamed up with the Prince to hurt you, causing the Prince to fall seriously ill and remain unconscious for days. Upon waking, you never mentioned Miss Chu again."
