After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 444

She wanted to cry but had no more tears left, her eyes gradually becoming sad, as she turned her face to the side. Innumerable bitter and sour feelings surged up from her heart...

She slowly traced the Eldest Prince's handsome eyebrows with her eyes, yet her heart was as cold and dead as a desolate wasteland...

How much she loved the Eldest Prince! But what could she do?

When the Eldest Prince woke up, he would definitely loathe her right?

Gu Ying looked up, forcing back the surging tears in her eyes. The more she didn't want to cry, the more the tears kept flowing without stop.

She had already prepared for the worst. Exhausted, she covered her aching and tight heart, slowly letting go of the man's big hand in her palm.

Su Huanfeng and Huai An looked at the woman puzzled, not understanding.

Gu Ying's voice was hoarse and powerless. "You guys go out first... Let me calm down for a while, okay?"

Su Huanfeng didn't know what had happened. Just seeing the woman's tearful red eyes, he felt heartache. "Young Madam... The Eldest Prince will definitely be alright. You must take care of yourself."

"Young Master, walk slowly..."

"I..."

"Jiangjiang, send them out for me..."

Behind her was some rustling noise. After a while, in the huge room, only Gu Ying was left.

She stared blankly at the Eldest Prince's side.

Even unconscious, the man's appearance was still coldly noble and aloof.

Especially that devilishly handsome side profile and sword-like eyebrows, it made people's hearts race just looking.

She wanted to reach out and touch his straight nose, but shrank back in fear, suddenly somewhat flustered and ashamed...

Someone like her, it was already a blessing to marry him. And now, all her ugly sides were exposed.

How could she defile his body, so clean and righteous?

"Ah Ying..."

After sending the people out, Ye Zhuojiang came in, heavily sighing at the sight of Gu Ying's dejected back.

Gu Ying clenched her fists, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve. With a light laugh and sigh, she said, "Why are you sighing at such a young age?"

Ye Zhuojiang pulled over a chair and sat down in front of Gu Ying, gazing intently into her reddened eyes. His tone was serious, "Ah Ying, there were other people here earlier, so I didn't say some things."

Gu Ying lifted her eyes, a glimmer of hope appearing. "Is it about a way to detoxify him?"

Ye Zhuojiang nodded, knitting his brows. "The silver needles I just gave the Eldest Prince can only temporarily stop the poison from spreading in his meridians. But as I told you before... The poison he was afflicted with came from beyond the border, extremely vicious. Also, the toxicity has already spread through his meridians to his whole body. On the road back to Bianjing from the border, no one could detoxify him. After such a long time... The poison can no longer be controlled. Even if we want to eliminate the toxins, it won't be simple. Moreover, medicine is slow, completely unable to catch up to the speed of the toxicity spreading in his body."

The smile froze on Gu Ying's lips. Her eyes flashed with panic, and mist immediately filled her entire eyes. "Jiangjiang, you must save him!"

Ye Zhuojiang saw Gu Ying's panic clearly.

This kind of thing would be unbearable for any woman.

He bit his lip. "Of course I will save him. He's your husband and your child's father. If I don't save him, what will you and the child do in the future?"

Gu Ying's tightly clutched heart loosened a little. She looked at him eagerly, hope in her eyes. "So you have a way right?"

"I..." Ye Zhuojiang hesitated to continue. The darkness in his eyes billowed like black fog, making it difficult to breathe. "I once learned a certain unorthodox method... Do you want to try it?"

"What unorthodox method?"

"A fast detoxification method, using human blood to replace the poisoned blood..."

Hearing this, Gu Ying's whole body went cold. The blood drained from her face instantly. "What do you mean?"

Ye Zhuojiang didn't dare meet Gu Ying's eyes. He said solemnly, "The literal meaning - using one life to save another life. This method isn't commonly used... I've only tried it on animals... I don't know if it will work on humans... But we have no other way now. In any case, this unorthodox method is still a method... The Eldest Prince is already like this, desperate times call for desperate measures. Moreover, the Eldest Prince can't hold out for many more days... We should make preparations early."

But Gu Ying said, "For the blood replacement method, does it require a specific person's blood, or can anyone's blood be used?"

Ye Zhuojiang said, "It's best if it can fuse with the Eldest Prince's blood. I've done experiments before... If the blood isn't compatible, the consequences will be even more severe after the transfusion."

Gu Ying's heart skipped a beat. For a moment she didn't speak, and her previously straight back gradually bent down.

Her blood was the most compatible with the Eldest Prince's... To save the Eldest Prince, the best method was herself.

Outside the window the night was pitch black like ink, heavy and boundless, not letting out a shred of light. Along the corridor hung several paper lanterns, shrouded in faint yellow light in the continuous autumn rain, like thick fog making it difficult to breathe.

Ye Zhuojiang said compassionately, "Ah Ying, don't be like this..."

Gu Ying's tear-filled eyes gazed blurrily at the Eldest Prince's handsome face. She finally understood why Jiang Yin could have directly stabbed the Eldest Prince to death, yet chose to leave him with a thread of life.

He was an observer, setting up this chess game to see her choose between the Eldest Prince and her child.

Gu Ying laughed bitterly through her fury, tears flowing even more in her eyes.

In her past life, he had already loathed the child in her belly. After just over a month, he couldn't wait to make her drink abortion medicine.

This life, it was still this child.

Yet he used another cruel method to kill him!

Jiang Yin, that heartless monster!

She had already chosen to escape from his side, so why wouldn't he let her and the child go!

Gu Ying's whole body trembled. Her fingers dug deeply into her palms until fresh blood seeped out, yet she didn't notice at all.

Ye Zhuojiang said in a deep tone, "Ah Ying, we still have three days to make a decision... No matter what, after three days we should try... Otherwise the Eldest Prince really won't make it."

Before leaving, he patted Gu Ying's shoulder, his tone heavy. "Ah Ying, I hope you and the child live well..."

Gu Ying didn't move. She sat stiffly in front of the bed, tears once again blurring her eyes.

...

Layer upon layer of autumn rain brought chill. Inside and outside the Changfeng Pavilion was desolate silence.

None of the serving maids and servants dared speak loudly. From time to time footsteps sounded, only Yin Lan carrying a crimson platter to send meals to Gu Ying's room.

The sound of rain dripped drop by drop onto the rockery outside the window. A night of wind and rain, the banana trees were broken and tattered.

Gu Ying kept vigil at the Eldest Prince's bedside, not sleeping the entire night.

She had flipped through all the medical books, but still couldn't find a good detoxification method.

The only way was Jiangjiang's unorthodox method.

She had no appetite at all and couldn't eat anything.

Early next morning, Ye Zhuojiang had all the people in the residence come to the Changfeng Pavilion to test their blood compatibility with the Eldest Prince.

With so many people in Bianjing, there must be quite a few whose blood was compatible with the Eldest Prince's. But with so many people... How long would she have to test?
