Looking at the woman in front of him, San Yisheng couldn't help but pull her into his arms again.

To manipulate things from top to bottom.

Ruhua did not refute, but instead cooperated wholeheartedly.

This is her only chance to rise to prominence and become a phoenix.

"Ruhua, now that the Marquis has suffered a great calamity, only you can avert this disaster for him. I wonder if you are willing to do it?"

Hearing these words, the woman named Ruhua was also taken aback.

She was just an ordinary maid; what qualifications did she have to help the Marquis solve his problems?

"My lord, if I could help the Marquis out of his predicament, Ruhua would be more than happy to do so. But Ruhua am just an ordinary maid, how could I possibly have the ability to help the Marquis out of his predicament?"

San Yisheng simply smiled slightly.

"Since you have this awareness, that's already very good."

He then kissed her again, Ruhua shyly.

However, the next moment, a dagger stabbed Ruhua in the abdomen, and blood gushed out immediately.

Ruhua lay in San Yisheng's arms, her expression one of disbelief, her eyes filled with terror.

"Sir----------Sir----------"

The scene before her was clearly unbelievable to her. One moment the adult was being affectionate with her, and the next he was about to take her life. How could she believe it?

Looking at the beauty in his arms, San Yisheng felt a pang of reluctance and gently kissed her cheek again.

"Don't blame me, I really hate to part with you, I really hate to part with you."

"You should know that I've had feelings for you for a long time, but since you've already promised to help the Marquis out of his predicament, you have no choice but to dedicate yourself to him."

He spoke softly, leaning down to whisper in Ruhua's ear.

"The only way to relieve the Marquis's urgent crisis is to kill you and then have you eaten by him. Otherwise, the Marquis will be in danger, Xiqi will be in danger. I hope you won't blame me when you go to Yellow Springs Nine Netherworlds."

San Yisheng's words were extremely understated, but they conveyed a subtle sense of apology.

Ruhua's throat tightened, and gushes of blood gushed out.

She then died in San Yisheng's arms.

The saddest thing in life is to have hope, only to have that hope itself end.

Looking at the beauty in his arms, San Yisheng could only shake his head and sigh.

This is a last resort.

Who told her to be on duty tonight?

He then selected some meat and personally cooked a pot of meat soup.

Without needing anyone to serve him, he personally carried the pot of meat soup to Ji Chang's bedroom.

At this moment, Ji Chang was lying there with lifeless eyes, his gaze revealing a numb expression, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

San Yisheng took a deep breath, a strange look in his eyes, and finally cautiously approached him.

"My lord, you haven't eaten for a long time. This will only harm your health. You should get up and eat something as soon as possible. You must take care of your health."

"Xiqi cannot do without you, My Lordship, please take good care of yourself!"

Lying on the bed, Marquis Ji Chang of the West, glanced weakly at San Yisheng, his eyes showing little desire to eat.

"I appreciate the doctor's kindness, but I don't have much of an appetite right now. Why don't you just put the food on the table? I'll get up and eat when I feel like it."

Upon hearing these words, San Yisheng couldn't help but let out a bitter smile, his face revealing a bleak expression.

He guessed right.

The Marquis can't eat anything except human flesh anymore.

"My lord, you must eat something, no matter what. Otherwise, what will happen to Xiqi if your health collapses?"

Marquis Ji Chang of the West, looked displeased.

"I've already said I have no appetite. I'm exhausted from the long journey and need rest. Please leave quickly and don't disturb my rest."

San Yisheng remained silent for a while.

But he still stepped forward and forcefully pulled Ji Chang off the bed before walking outside.

At this moment, Ji Chang, though somewhat bloated and obese, was utterly powerless and unable to resist.

Before long, San Yisheng dragged him to the outer room.

"San Yisheng, what are you doing? Are you trying to rebel?"

Seeing San Yisheng's disrespectful attitude, Marquis Ji Chang of the West, was immediately enraged.

A surge of murderous intent had already risen within him.

If San Yisheng cannot provide a reasonable explanation, he might order San Yisheng's execution.

However, when the Marquis of the West came outside, he was immediately stunned. He saw a large pot on a table in the distance, filled with steaming hot meat.

That would have been fine, but he actually smelled an incredibly familiar aroma coming from the pot of broth. Clearly, this sweet smell was almost irresistible to him.

At the same time, he was even more surprised. This was Xiqi, so why would there be such delicious food here?

"You???"

Realizing what was happening, Ji Chang suddenly turned around and looked at San Yisheng beside him.

His eyes widened in shock. Had San Yisheng already found out about this?

Is that why San Yisheng prepared such a delicious meal for himself?

At this moment, Ji Chang felt a strong killing intent erupt within him; this matter absolutely could not be leaked.

Once the secret is leaked, the Xiqi will immediately be thrown into panic, and at that point, they will truly fall apart.

Seeing the Marquis's still-shaken gaze, San Yisheng couldn't help but reveal a faint smile, though there was a hint of bleakness in that smile.

"My lord, I know you've had a long and arduous journey and are extremely tired. You can't afford to lose your appetite."

"Therefore, I have specially prepared this pot of meat soup for you. This soup is incredibly delicious, so please eat it while it's hot, Your Highness."

"It's not too late to eat something and rest properly. This meat soup is incredibly delicious. I couldn't resist and secretly ate quite a bit. I hope Your Excellency won't be offended."

He chuckled as he spoke, and surprisingly, he reached out and took a piece of fresh meat from the pot of cooked broth, immediately putting it in his mouth.

When Marquis Ji Chang of the West, saw this scene, he was immediately taken aback.

The way he looked at San Yisheng changed, which truly moved him. To have such a confidant in this life was enough.

Thinking of this, Marquis Ji Chang of the West, had tears in his eyes.

San Yisheng swallowed the meat in his mouth, then turned to look at Ji Chang.

"My lord, you must be exhausted from your long journey. If you don't eat properly, your health will collapse, and our Xiqi will be leaderless. Please take good care of yourself, my lord. I'll take my leave now. Please eat."

"From now on, Your Highness's meals will be in your care. Your Highness need not worry. If Your Highness is still concerned, you may cut out my tongue and fingers, so that I may be unable to speak or write. Everything will be at Your Highness's discretion, and I will have no complaints."

Upon hearing these words, Ji Chang choked up.

"What are you saying, Doctor? You have always been loyal to me, and I am eternally grateful. How could I possibly do anything to harm you?"

"Don't bring these things up again in the future; we'll need you then!"

Hearing this, San Yisheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"My lord, please enjoy your meal. I will now take my leave."

With that, he turned and left under Ji Chang's gaze.

As soon as he stepped outside, San Yisheng's face turned deathly pale, and he began to tremble.

His throat churned violently, and the churning in his stomach almost made him vomit.

In unbearable pain, he covered his mouth tightly and, controlling his trembling body, fled in panic.

If he were to vomit here, it would be a disgrace for Marquis Ji Chang of the West.
