"Ah?"
At his words, Xiao Yi Xian's red lips parted slightly, her face filled with both surprise and embarrassment.
"The medicinal fragrance on you has changed quite a bit. Did you think I wouldn't notice?"
Xiao Yuan spread his hands helplessly.
After meeting Xiao Yi Xian earlier, Xiao Yuan had noticed that the medicinal scent on her differed greatly from the afternoon's. However, he had not exposed her. With his foundation, the poison Xiao Yi Xian had concocted could not possibly bring him down completely anytime soon.
Besides, before leaving, Xiao Yuan had specifically asked Yao Lao to prepare some pills for him.
Naturally, antidote pills were among them.
But Xiao Yuan had no intention of wasting an antidote pill here. There was no need at all.
"If you could smell that something was wrong, why did you still hold me so tightly?"
Xiao Yi Xian gritted her silver teeth, asking angrily.
Was teasing her really that fun?
"But later, you held me pretty tightly too."
Xiao Yuan blinked, sounding completely justified.
"You!"
Fuming, Xiao Yi Xian took out a jade vial and tossed it to Xiao Yuan, then said viciously:
"If I'd known, I should've just poisoned you to death!"
After throwing out the vial, Xiao Yi Xian sat on the steps in sullen silence.
"Hehe."
Xiao Yuan smiled at the sight, then poured out the pill from the jade vial and tossed it into his mouth.
Seeing Xiao Yuan swallow the pill without hesitation, Xiao Yi Xian's expression softened slightly. But when she saw him looking at her, she immediately pouted and turned her head away.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan walked over to Xiao Yi Xian, bent down, and placed the jade vial beside her. He said gently, "If anything goes wrong later, hide back in the passageway.
