The fact that the other party used poison to restrain her shows how important the man lying on the sickbed is to him.
“Everything that happened in this courtyard, not a single word can be revealed to outsiders. If I find out that you have leaked even a fraction of what happened here, the antidote will not be given, and your family will be implicated as well.” Ying Yi threatened.
Bei Yutang shrank her neck and nodded fearfully, “This servant will not leak anything.”
Ying Yi was satisfied with her performance. If she had been too calm at this moment, she would probably have lost her head.
“Young Master, what do you need this servant to do now?” Bei Yutang asked cautiously.
Ying Yi ordered, “Go and fetch some hot water.”
Bei Yutang’s eyes lit up, “Okay.”
Bei Yutang walked out of the room, a mocking smile playing on her lips.
Trying to control her with poison? A pipe dream.
Bei Yutang prepared to leave, not worried at all about the poison in her body.
Just as she touched the courtyard gate, someone suddenly appeared behind her.
Ying Yi silently stood behind her, a low voice sounding from behind.
“Where are you going?”
Bei Yutang trembled, seemingly frightened by him, her face pale as she looked at him.
“This…this servant is going out to fetch hot water.”
Ying Yi pointed to the next room: “There’s a small kitchen over there, and the water vat has enough water.”
“Oh, oh.” Bei Yutang nodded blankly, explaining, “This…this servant will go boil water right away.”
“Wait.” Ying Yi called out to her.
Bei Yutang stopped.
“Y-young Master, is there anything else?”
“Without my permission, you are not allowed to leave this courtyard, even a step.” Ying Yi ordered.
“Yes.” Bei Yutang nodded obediently.
This person was very wary, and his martial arts skills were high. Escaping from under his nose wouldn’t be easy. Unless he willingly let her out of the courtyard, she truly wouldn’t be able to leave this place even a step.
Bei Yutang went to the small kitchen and started a fire to boil water.
A quarter of an hour later, Bei Yutang carried a bucket of hot water into the room.
“Young Master, the water is ready.”
“Put it there.” Ying Yi pointed to a spot to the side.
Bei Yutang did as instructed, setting down the steaming wooden bucket. She glanced at the person on the bed, only seeing a silhouette, unable to make out the person’s gender.
“You may leave.” Ying Yi ordered.
“Yes.”
Bei Yutang had thought that he wanted her to clean the person on the bed, but it seemed that he had no such intention. He planned to do it himself.
Bei Yutang stepped out of the house, looked at the gate to the courtyard ahead, then glanced back at the house to her right, ultimately suppressing the urge to escape.
In half an hour, Bei Yutang brought in two more buckets of water, each time stained with blood, indicating the person on the bed was severely injured.
An hour later, there was a knock on the courtyard gate, and the young master’s voice came from inside.
“Go open the door and bring the things in.”
“Yes.”
Bei Yutang opened the courtyard gate. Standing outside was the same pimp from before. The pimp was somewhat suspicious to see her still standing there unharmed.
It seemed that the young master inside hadn’t made a move on this girl yet.
“Brother Mu, give me the things.” Bei Yutang said.
The pimp, eager to curry favor with the people inside, smiled and said, “The things are a bit heavy. Let me help you carry them in.”
It was clear the person inside was wary and didn’t want outsiders in. She smiled and declined, “Brother Mu, no need. The Young Master doesn’t like being disturbed by outsiders.”
