Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!-Chapter 1414: Demon Sect Leader VS Righteous Maiden (Part 52)

Cheng Mingyue’s hands could no longer hold the bowl of porridge, and the pale, thick porridge spilled across the blanket.

Under normal circumstances, Xiao Tang would have quickly stood up to clean it, but now she just stood there watching, without moving an inch.

Cheng Mingyue felt a gut-wrenching pain, as if countless sharp blades were twisting inside her.

She looked up, drenched in cold sweat, staring incredulously at Xiao Tang who stood silently aside: "You poisoned me?"

Xiao Tang remained silent, neither confirming nor denying.

Crimson blood dripped from the corner of Cheng Mingyue’s mouth, and she didn’t wipe it away—because it was endless.

She just glared at Xiao Tang, demanding: "Why?"

She thought that even if she fell to such a state, there would still be someone by her side who wouldn’t abandon her.

She even planned that once she felt better, she would sell this residence and take Xiao Tang to live elsewhere.

But no matter how much she thought, she never imagined Xiao Tang would poison her!

"Why?" Xiao Tang raised her head, and Cheng Mingyue saw nothing but lifelessness in her eyes.

"Over these days, with Father Cheng absent, the servants left one by one, leaving just me behind."

Xiao Tang reached out her hand to show Cheng Mingyue, her pale palm full of red, purple, and even broken skin scars.

"Someone once offered for Xiao Tang to leave with them, but Xiao Tang couldn’t bear to see the miss lying sick with no one to care for her, so she stayed behind."

"Look at these hands, I’m tasked daily to cook for you, clean your body, while fearing those harboring ill intentions might invade our home. I also clean this household of debris and waste day in and day out..."

"But what did Xiao Tang get in return? Nothing but your beatings and scoldings!"

Xiao Tang maintained an incredibly calm demeanor, and such a look in Cheng Mingyue’s eyes proved more terrifying than a face full of hatred.

A person who desires nothing can often be the most terrifying.

Cheng Mingyue felt her strength slipping away as her mind began to cloud.

She forced a smile, trying to appear genuine: "Xiao Tang, I know I was wrong. I’ll definitely treat you well from now on, could you give me the antidote?"

Xiao Tang lifted her head and suddenly smiled: "No, there is no antidote for this. You can rest in peace, miss."

Cheng Mingyue’s eyes widened as the pain in her belly reached an unbearable climax. She couldn’t help but spit blood, collapsing helplessly.

Xiao Tang watched the scene coldly.

She stepped forward to arrange Cheng Mingyue’s posture, cover her with a blanket, making her look like she was merely asleep from afar. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Afterwards, without hesitation, she turned and left the room.

Gu Shengyin received a message from the system during an unspeakable moment.

In her excitement, Zhu Yue audibly sucked in a breath.

"What’s the matter?" He bit Gu Shengyin’s ear in a punitive manner.

Gu Shengyin shook her head, her arms tightened around his neck, drawing herself closer: "Nothing."

Feeling her passion, Zhu Yue curled his lips before leaning further down.

It was a night of passion and intimacy, the candle burned until dawn.

Gu Shengyin cast aside all irrelevant thoughts, focusing on the fervor brought by her lover.

The joyous room’s red candles burned until daylight.
