"It's fine, my injuries are mostly healed, so it doesn't matter if the medicinal potency is a bit lacking." Waving his hand dismissively, Qian Xunji began his own probing.
Is serving one's teacher a disciple's duty? Hah! He didn't believe for a second that Bibi Dong would be this kind to a "teacher" who forced her to break up with her lover, defiled her, and left her to bear a child!
For all he knew, this bowl of medicinal soup had something unspeakable added to it!
Hearing Qian Xunji's refusal, a flicker of anxiety flashed deep within Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes. "Teacher, if your injuries haven't fully healed, it's better to drink it while the medicinal soup is still hot and its effects are at their peak. Otherwise, it would be terrible if you were left with any lingering ailments!"
How could Bibi Dong not be anxious?
She had been waiting bitterly for six years for a suitable opportunity for revenge!
And now, she had finally waited for this chance—Qian Xunji was suspected to be severely injured, his four lackeys were either dead or wounded, and the remaining two were not by his side.
In other words, Qian Xunji currently had no guards around him!
If she missed such a rare opportunity, she feared she would never encounter another one like it in her entire life!
Therefore, no matter what, she had to trick Qian Xunji into drinking this bowl of soup laced with deadly poison!
Noticing the urgency in her eyes, Qian Xunji sneered inwardly.
Heh, as expected, he knew there was something wrong with this medicine! Look, he had baited it out of her!
But this girl was underestimating him too much; did she really think she could scheme against him with such clumsy acting? Did she really take him for a blind man?
He had no idea how his predecessor in the original story had even fallen into her hands!
Could it be that he felt guilty and let himself be caught on purpose?
As for what his predecessor was thinking, Qian Xunji didn't want to know, nor did he care; he only knew that he didn't want to die!
However, he didn't dare to simply knock the medicine over either. After all, who knew what methods Bibi Dong would use to entertain him next if he did!
He dared not fall out with his "beloved disciple" either.
Because his current state was truly poor!
If they really had a falling out, he wasn't certain he could defeat Bibi Dong, who was currently only at level 80-something, even if he was a level 95 Titled Douluo!
So, what could he do to break this deadlock?
Subconsciously, Qian Xunji sized up his surroundings and the Bibi Dong standing before him.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he had an idea.
Yes, it was true that because of his injuries, he didn't dare to rashly fall out with Bibi Dong!
But did Bibi Dong dare to easily make a move on him? Not necessarily!
Without a hundred percent certainty, how could Bibi Dong dare to strike at him easily?—She had to remember, she only had one chance to strike!
If she succeeded, then everything would be fine; but if she failed, she would have to relive that experience in the dark room!
It was precisely because she knew the consequences of failure were too tragic that Bibi Dong had to be even more cautious.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have used the excuse of making him drink medicine time and again to test his true condition!
Thinking of this, Qian Xunji immediately had a plan.
He had to act, to pretend that he wasn't injured, and put on a show that he was still as formidable as ever!
Only in this way could he make Bibi Dong wary and afraid to strike easily!
Or perhaps, he could simply make her so angry that she would turn around and leave!
"Hmm, Dong'er, you make a fair point. Since that's the case, I'll drink it while it's hot. However... I want you to feed it to me yourself!"
As he spoke, Qian Xunji patted his thigh and looked at Bibi Dong's crimson lips, his eyes filled with profound meaning.
Seeing Qian Xunji's actions, Bibi Dong was slightly stunned.
Then, the next moment, her entire pretty face turned gloomy, and her gaze became exceptionally cold.
As intelligent as she was, how could she not know what Qian Xunji wanted her to do!—This was clearly him wanting her to sit on his lap and feed him the medicine with her mouth!
This bastard, he actually dared to... How could he!!!
Bibi Dong glared viciously at Qian Xunji, her chest heaving violently, signaling the uncontrollable anger she felt at that moment.
"Teacher, please show some self-respect!"
However, Qian Xunji acted as if he hadn't heard her, merely looking at her with a playful, mocking expression on his face.
Seeing Qian Xunji's look of having her completely figured out, Bibi Dong was so angry that her face turned red and then white; she immediately wanted to disregard everything and rush forward to finish him off.
But in the end, she suppressed the murderous intent that was on the verge of erupting from her heart.
