The moon was not very bright tonight, and the sky was dim and hazy.
Even with this faint light, Chu Qianli could not see the box in front of her clearly.
However, a gift?
She immediately shook her head, waved her hand, and said with a dry laugh, "It's just two bowls of noodles, not worth much. Fourth Brother doesn't need to be so polite. You should go back and rest early."
Why send a gift? Would there be other requests after this?
She dared not be easily fooled.
This man was extremely cunning and impossible to fathom. It was best to have as little to do with him as possible!
Feng Yexuan's eyes darkened slightly: "Are you sure you don't want it?"
"Is it... important?" The box didn't seem very valuable, and it looked quite old.
"It's not important." Feng Yexuan took a step forward, raised his hand, and tossed the wooden box into her arms.
"Do you think this King would give you something important?"
"..." Utterly speechless! She wished she could slap him on the forehead.
"Then thank you very much!" Chu Qianli was so angry that she didn't even look at it, casually throwing it into her Qiankun Chain.
But after doing so, she suddenly realized.
How could she casually let Prince Xuan see the secret of the Qiankun Chain?
Wouldn't a box disappearing into thin air be terrifying?
Chu Qianli's heart tightened, and she stealthily looked at him.
Feng Yexuan merely glanced at the chain on her wrist thoughtfully, but there was no hint of astonishment in his eyes.
"What are you looking at? Are there any secrets about you that this King doesn't know?"
Feng Yexuan withdrew his gaze, turned, and stepped into the Prince's mansion.
Chu Qianli was both angry and helpless. It seemed he really knew the secret of the Qiankun Chain.
Also, how did the words "Qiankun Chain" suddenly appear in her mind? Who told her that this bracelet was called the Qiankun Chain?
Her head began to ache again.
Chu Qianli lightly tapped her forehead. Seeing that Feng Yexuan had already entered the mansion, she didn't linger and quickly followed him in.
As for the wooden box in the bracelet's space, since he said it wasn't important, she hadn't opened it at all.
Anyway, the space was vast, so putting something in it was no big deal.
If this stingy man suddenly became unhappy one day and asked for the things he had given her back like a child, she could simply take them out and return them to him.
For now, she would just keep them for him.
Upon returning, Chu Qianli changed into clean clothes.
She took out Long Xiyue's token and looked at it before putting it away. Checking the time, it was half past twelve at night.
She decided to check on Feng Wuya first, to see if he had slept.
But she hadn't expected that so late, there would still be someone in Feng Wuya's room.
Tie Xin was guarding the courtyard. Upon seeing Chu Qianli, he immediately called out loudly, "Miss Chu, are you looking for His Highness?"
Chu Qianli frowned and walked over quickly.
Tie Xin did not stop her.
Chu Qianli walked directly to the door and pushed it open.
Feng Wuya was sitting on the bed, meditating with his eyes closed.
"Consort Yu has been here?" Chu Qianli asked in a low voice.
Feng Wuya opened his eyes, looked at her, and finally nodded.
"She was worried about my injuries and came to help me heal with her cultivation."
Chu Qianli's mood was somewhat complex.
It was normal for a mother to worry about her son. However, everyone was looking for Consort Yu recently, yet she had actively come here... this felt somewhat strange.
"I cannot help her break the soul-controlling technique unless I threaten her with my life."
Feng Wuya looked at her, speaking frankly: "A'li, are you angry with me?"
"Why should I be angry? If you truly threatened her with your life, then I would really be angry."
Chu Qianli walked to the bedside and sat down, taking his wrist to feel his pulse.
His pulse was indeed much better.
Consort Yu's cultivation was even more unfathomable than she had imagined.
"It's not bad like this. I remember everything, and this soul-controlling technique doesn't affect my life."
"But you've forgotten everything about Fourth Brother." Don't you feel any regret?
Chu Qianli released his wrist, looked at him, and felt a bit resentful.
"Why do you keep trying to push me towards other men? Do you hate me that much?"
Feng Wuya was taken aback. When had he ever hated her?
"But you are not my woman..."
"Now I am!" What were they thinking?
She had said she would protect him for a lifetime, and she meant it!
Feng Wuya rubbed his temples, feeling a bit helpless.
"When you recover your memories with Fourth Brother, you won't think this way."
However, nothing could be said now.
He had also tried to persuade his mother earlier, but his mother had said that either Chu Qianli would stay and take care of him, or she would kill Chu Qianli.
Although Feng Wuya was angry, his mother's personality was like that. If he persuaded her further, his mother might truly harm A'li.
He couldn't use his cultivation now; his power had not yet recovered. If his mother was serious, he feared he would not be able to protect Chu Qianli.
"Alright, we'll talk about this later. It's late now, you should go back and rest early."
"No, I want to watch you fall asleep before I leave."
Chu Qianli sat on the chair, bored, and suddenly felt like seeing what Feng Yexuan had given her.
That box was still quietly lying in her space.
What was inside the old box?
Just as she was about to take out the box to look, the scene of Feng Yexuan eating noodles suddenly appeared clearly in her mind.
Chu Qianli's heart skipped a beat, almost startled by her own thoughts.
No! Don't think about it! Can't think about it!
The only person she should be thinking about now was the man who had turned his hair white overnight to save her.
Her Wuya...
She wasn't unaware that she had lost a lot of memories, but she truly didn't know how she would face Wuya if she remembered certain things.
Wuya had become like this now, his life hanging by a thread.
She couldn't abandon him, absolutely not!
She gave up on the box.
She would not touch anything related to Feng Yexuan, nor should she.
The only man she needed to protect now was Feng Wuya.
"A'li," the man on the bed suddenly turned over and looked at her.
"Hmm?" Chu Qianli, who had just crossed her legs and was about to practice the Yi Jin Jing, opened her eyes. "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"I'm not that fragile."
Feng Wuya smiled and said, "You want to go to the Dragon Ascending Kingdom?"
"Yes." Not just wanting to, it was imperative. "But I won't leave you. If you're unwilling to come with me, then I..."
"I'll accompany you."
Feng Wuya closed his eyes and said softly, "I don't know how much longer I can live, but at least while I'm alive, I want to be with everyone."
"Everyone?" Chu Qianli was slightly surprised.
Feng Wuya smiled and said, "Fourth Brother has promised to accompany you on this trip."
