Chapter 346 - 346: Drawing Blood
“Yes. In other words, it’s a blood transfusion. The two of them have lost too much blood so they need to replenish their blood as soon as possible,” Yu Yunxi said expressionlessly.
Ji Jianbai said immediately, “If you need blood, then use mine!”
Yu Yunxi looked at Ji Jianbai and scoffed coldly. “General Ji, I’m afraid that won’t do. You’re not related to the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince. Your blood not only will not save them, but it will also endanger them even more.”
Yang Yeqi asked in a strange tone, “Then, Eldest Princess, it has to be the Third Princess’ blood?”
Yu Yunxi glanced at Chu Zhiya, whose face was a little pale now, before she looked at Chu Yueqi, who was standing next to Chu Zhiya, and said, “The Third Princess’ blood alone is not enough. I’m afraid we still need the Fifth Prince’s blood.”
Chu Yueqi’s expression darkened immediately. “Yu Yunxi, you actually dare to have thoughts about my blood?”
Chu Yueqi did not care about Chu Yuemu and Chu Zhihe’s life and death. In fact, it would benefit him if Chu Yuemu died. He had only spoken out earlier to make things difficult for Yu Yunxi.
Yu Yunxi sighed, pretending to look regretful as she said, “Alright then. It seems like the Fifth Prince is unwilling so we can only watch them die.”
Yang Yeqi became even more anxious when she heard the word ‘die’. She did not dare to beg Chu Yueqi, but she felt that she had a chance with Chu Zhiya. She said anxiously, “Third Princess, please save the Sixth Princess and the
Seventh Prince!”
Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow as she looked at Yang Yeqi, thinking to herself, ‘It seems like this young lady from the Yang family really likes Chu Yuemu.’
Chu Zhiya’s expression turned even more unsightly. She wished for nothing more than to kill Yang Yeqi right now.
‘This lowly thing actually dared to ask for my blood?’
Chu Zhiya gritted her teeth and said, “Yang Yeqi, get up.”
However, not only did Yang Yeqi not get up, but she continued to say seriously, “Third Princess, I know you’re kind so you won’t just leave them to die like this.
Didn’t you say earlier that you’d do anything as long as you could save the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince? They just need a little of your blood now. It’s not a big deal.”
Chu Zhiya was so angry that smoke almost rose from her head when she heard Yang Yeqi using her earlier words against her now.
At the same time, Yu Yunxi almost laughed out loud seeing that Chu Zhiya, who wanted to pretend to be kind, had shot herself in the foot.
In order to maintain the image that she had painstakingly created, Chu Zhiya could not give voice to the vicious and angry words in her heart. She could only grit her teeth and ask Yu Yunxi, “Cousin, are you sure that blood transfusion can really save Sixth Sister and Seventh Brother?”
Yu Yunxi nodded and said seriously, “This is a matter of life and death. Why would I lie? However, you seem hesitant. Could it be that you’re unwilling to save them? Was everything you said earlier a lie?”
In an instant, everyone looked at Chu Zhiya skeptically.
Chu Zhiya, who could not give voice to her true feelings, really wished she could kill Yu Yunxi at this moment. However, she could only grit her teeth and continue to say, “Of course not. I’m naturally willing to do whatever it takes to save Sixth Sister and Seventh Brother. I was only worried that blood transfusion might not really be able to save them.”
“Then you can rest assured. As long as there’s blood, they’ll definitely be fine,” Yu Yunxi said. Then, she sighed and pretended to look troubled before she added, “If it weren’t for the fact that I’m not directly related to them, I would also be willing to donate my blood to them.”
Meanwhile, Feng Yili, who was looking at Yu Yunxi’s back, could see her shoulders shaking slightly. Clearly, it was not easy for her to hold back her laughter. Although he could not see the expression on her face, he could already imagine her cunning gaze at this moment.
‘She’s just like a sly little fox…’
Yu Yunxi feigned a solemn expression on her face as she said, “Third Princess, if you continue to hesitate, I’m afraid something will really happen to them…’
Upon hearing this, Yang Yeqi began to kowtow again, pleading. “Third
Princess, please help them.”
Chu Zhiya really felt like vomiting blood at this moment. However, she had no choice but to nod stiffly to maintain her image. She said, “I’m naturally willing to save them.”
‘However…’
Chu Zhiya looked up at Chu Yueqi and said in a subtle threatening tone, “Fifth Brother, the situation is critical now. It’s not too much for a man like you to donate a little blood, right? I believe Imperial Father will agree with this as well when he finds out.’
Chu Yuefu narrowed his eyes, which shone with hatred, immediately.
‘This b*tch actually dares to threaten me?’
However, Chu Yueqi quickly regained his composure. There were too many people watching at this moment. If his father heard about this, his father might really blame him. After all, he knew his father hated discord between the princes and princesses the most. It was also for this reason that all of them pretended to have a good relationship in front of their father for so many years.
Chu Yueqi forced a smile on his face and said, “Since my blood can save Sixth Sister and Seventh Brother, how can I be unwilling?
Chu Yueqi was confident that Yu Yunxi would not extract much blood from him.
With that, Chu Zhiya raised her head and said, “Cousin, let’s begin.”
If looks could kill, Yu Yunxi would have died many times over by now.
Yu Yunxi acted as though she did not see the murderous gazes on her. She brought out a dagger and strode toward Chu Zhiya and Chu Yueqi. She quickly slashed the duo’s wrists to draw blood before she said lightly, “Hurry up and feed them the blood.’
Although Chu Zhiya and Chu Yueqi were fuming with anger, they could only endure the pain and feed Chu Yuemu and Chu Zhihe their blood.
The others did not dare to stay idle and quickly ran over to help.
As time passed, Ji Jianbai grew even more anxious when he noticed that Chu Zhiya’s face was getting paler and paler. He could not help but ask angrily, “Eldest Princess, how long is it going to take? The Third Princess can’t hold on any longer!”
Upon hearing this, Yu Yunxi feigned surprise. She covered her mouth in shock as she said, “Huh? Why are you still feeding them blood? Just a little is enough. If you feed them too much, it might backfire.”
‘This b*tch! She’s doing this on purpose! There’s no doubt she’s doing this on purpose!’ Chu Zhiya thought to herself. She was so angry that she almost fainted.
“Third Princess!” Ji Jianbai called out as he hurriedly supported Chu Zhiya. Then, he shouted at a few noble young ladies, ‘Hurry up and help the Third
Princess bandage her wound!”
Ding Qing and the others did not dare to relay. They brought a handkerchief out and began to bandage Chu Zhiya and Chu Yueqi’s wounds.
Although Chu Yueqi was a man, his condition was no better than that of Chu Zhiya. He had just stood up when he staggered back and almost fell. Fortunately, someone was there to support him. When he turned around, he saw that the other party was Yu Yunxi.
Yu Yunxi said with a smile, “Fifth Imperial Cousin, I believe that Sixth Imperial Cousin and Seventh Imperial Cousin will be very grateful to you when they wake up.”
Chu Yueqi sneered and said in an unfriendly tone, “Didn’t you say that they’ll be well after feeding them blood? Why isn’t there any movement at all until now?”
