“This… What is going on? Everything is back to normal.” Seeing her getting up, Xuan Mo was extremely surprised and he quickly checked Liu Yue’s pulse. His eyes widened with shock when he found a normal pulse. He looked at Liu Yue disbelievingly.
She was in a critical condition just a moment ago, how could she be…
“It’s just countering poison with poison.” Liu Yue took back her wrist from Xuan Mo.
She had to drink the poison that Empress Liu gave her. Otherwise, how would she play the part of a wolf in a sheep’s skin?
However, how could she let herself be poisoned? When she first swallowed the poison, she had already ingested the poison she hid in her sleeves. She only fainted just now because of the two poison clashing inside her body, it wasn’t a serious problem.
This body of hers was still far from her previous body. Her past self had ingested a hundred different types of poison and built a resistance to it. Even if it was the latest US neurotoxin technology, it wouldn’t harm her in the slightest bit. Yet, she actually fainted from the toxins in this current body.
Looks like she would need to train her body harder.
Xuan Yuan Che who was standing at her bedside glared at her with eyes full of wrath mixed with anxiety. A furious aura was slowly seeping out from him.
Seeing this, Liu Yue spoke with a calm yet unyielding tone, “I’m not someone who wouldn’t cherish her own life, but I do know my position here. I went to the Empress’ Palace because I am prepared, and I know that I can be absolutely safe. That’s why I went there.”
“So, did you mean that my worry for you is unnecessary?” Xuan Yuan Che’s expression turn icy cold. It turned out that all of his anxiety and worry had ended up as a joke.

She emphasised her feelings three times to tell him the joy she was feeling right then. There had never been anyone who would worry so much for her. Never. But Xuan Yuan Che had actually wanted to charge into the Empress Palace, seething in anger, for her sake. She knew he was a calm person and would have never done such thing in a normal situation. That was why she was extremely happy.
Her hands twining around his neck, Liu Yue rest her head on Xuan Yuan Che’s shoulders and said, “Che, trust me. I’m not a weak little hummingbird, I’m a strong eagle. I’m an eagle that can soar through the sky together with you. I am not that fragile, so trust me.”
Her soft words flowed like a gentle river on Xuan Yuan Che’s ears, so gentle yet so overbearingly confident.
The fury that filled his heart slowly dissipated away. He thought that he became so worried because he didn’t believe in her enough. How could he forget that his little Princess Consort was an extremely capable and proud woman, with thousands of tricks up her sleeves?
