At this moment, an unusual atmosphere flowed through the air, and Su Yan was startled. She quickly turned her head, only to have her acupoint struck by someone.

The palace maids who came in with her all unknowingly fainted to the ground.

The person who struck her acupoint was someone she never expected — Cang Mo, the Seventh Prince of Cangyue Country!

Su Yan looked at him in astonishment, wanting to speak, but unable to make a sound.

At this moment, Nanzhao Suya on the bed woke up. Seeing Su Yan subdued, a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She exchanged a glance with Cang Mo, and then her gaze fell on Su Yan.

A hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, her hand raised high, intending to slap Su Yan, but her wrist was caught midway.

"What are you trying to do?" Cang Mo grabbed her hand and asked.

"Let go, I want to teach this bitch a lesson, let her know my face is not so easy to hit." Su Ya struggled a few times but couldn’t break from Cang Mo’s grip.

He flung her hand aside, speaking indifferently, "We agreed, she is mine now, you can’t touch her."

"It was I who lured her in for you." Su Ya retorted unwillingly.

"So what, we’re just using each other."

Straightening his clothes, he looked at Su Yan with a smile and said:

"In the past, I thought only beauties with peerless looks were attractive. Now, I suddenly feel that actually, you are more enticing than those peerless beauties.

No wonder Chu Yuxiao only favored you, you truly are different from other women. You have courage, insight, and also possess a uniquely special aura."

His hand flirtatiously lifted Su Yan’s chin, and he continued smiling:

"Did you know, I’ve been captivated by you for quite some time? Now, you have finally fallen into my hands."

His fingers moved ambiguously over Su Yan’s cheek, and Su Yan suddenly felt an urge to vomit.

She coldly stared at him, not believing a word of his flowery speech.

He came to catch her, surely planning to use her to threaten Chu Yuxiao.

The Imperial Physician should arrive soon; as long as someone discovers Cang Mo here, she should be saved.

Unfortunately, Nanzhao Suya glanced at Cang Mo with disgust and impatiently said, "Hurry up and take her away, if you don’t leave now, it will be too late."
