Although Li Wanji tried her best to suppress it, the numbness in her legs spread upwards along her nerve endings like an electric current, causing her to tremble involuntarily.

She had to pour the wine and quietly adjust her sitting position to try to ease the discomfort.

Canglanzi had been secretly observing Li Wanji's reaction. When he saw a hint of barely perceptible panic flash across her brows, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

He didn't really intend to let Li Wanji lose her composure in public, he just wanted to give her a warning and let her know the consequences of ignoring him.

So he quietly withdrew his magic, allowing Li Wanji to breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, cold sweat had already appeared on Li Wanji's palms. She could no longer suppress her anxiety and wanted to find an excuse to leave this place of trouble.

However, just as she was about to speak, Yan Yuhe had already stood up. He reached out and touched Li Wanji's forehead, and whispered, "Wanji, are you feeling unwell?"

Li Wanji was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Yan Yuhe to be so careful in noticing her abnormality.

She quickly adjusted her expression and said with a light smile, "I just can't handle the alcohol, it's okay."

"In that case, then don't drink it." Yan Yuhe gently took the wine glass from her hand and put it aside, "Come, eat. This spiritual eel soup tastes very delicious, you will definitely like it."

As he spoke, he personally served Li Wanji a bowl of eel soup and carefully picked out the minced ginger from it.

But after what happened just now, how could Li Wanji still have the heart to eat? She just felt like sitting on pins and needles, and just wanted to get away from Canglanzi, this dangerous man, as soon as possible.

"Yuhe, Master, please take your time. Wanji accidentally sprained her foot while practicing sword today, so I'll have to leave you now." She stood up and bowed slightly to show her apology.

Seeing this, Yan Yuhe frowned slightly and asked worriedly, "Did you sprain your foot? Is it serious?"

Then he turned to look at Canglanzi and said, "Brother, let's stop here today. Wanji is feeling a little unwell, so I want to send her back to rest first."

"Hey, no need..."

However, before Li Wanji could finish her words, Yan Yuhe had already picked her up and said softly, "Don't be stubborn. I'll take you back."

"Yuhe, don't do this, I can go back by myself." Li Wanji was frightened by his sudden action and instinctively wanted to struggle.

"Listen, or I won't be able to hold you steady. What will you do if you fall?" Yan Yuhe scolded her with a hint of doting, then turned to Canglanzi and said, "Brother, excuse me."

Li Wanji had to give up struggling and leaned obediently in his arms.

She didn't dare to look at Canglanzi, so she could only lower her eyes and let Yan Yuhe hold her and leave the banquet.

Canglanzi felt an indescribable emotion surge in his heart as he looked at her like a little bird.

He couldn't tell whether he was jealous or angry, he just felt a tightness in his chest.

Watching the two people leaving, Canglanzi tightly gripped the wine glass in his hand, his fingertips turning white from the force.

He poured himself a drink, one cup after another, as if he wanted to drown out the depression in his heart.

However, the wine made him even sadder. The feeling of depression in his heart not only did not dissipate, but became even more intense.

He didn't understand why he cared so much about Li Wanji.

She is just a small mountain monster, without any power or influence. Although she is beautiful, she is just a beautiful shell with no substance.

Why could her every smile, anger, joy and sorrow touch his heart?

Could it be that the pleasure of making love made him addicted and unable to extricate himself?

Yes, he thought of Li Wanji's gentle and happy appearance on the couch, her watery eyes full of spring, and the shy look on the corners of her mouth, which really made him intoxicated and unable to control himself.

Canglanzi rubbed his temples irritably, trying to clear the beautiful images from his mind.

Unfortunately, the more I want to forget, the more clearly those images emerge in my mind.

He knew in his heart that he had been bewitched by Li Wanji.

He thought that after decades of seclusion and cultivation, he had already cut off all emotions and desires and his mind was as calm as water. He did not expect that he would be easily disturbed by a small mountain monster.

Canglanzi waved his hand irritably, sweeping the food and wine on the table to the ground, making a mess.

He stood up, his figure swaying and he almost fell.

He held onto the table and took a deep breath, trying to calm his restlessness.

Who would have thought that such a strong emotion would spread wildly in his heart like overgrown weeds.

He knew that he couldn't stay here any longer.

Otherwise, he might really do something irrational.

So he staggered out of the dining hall, and his figure quickly disappeared into the night.

Li Wanji was carried back to the room by Yan Yuhe and gently placed on the couch. She struggled to get up, but was gently held down by Yan Yuhe.

"Don't move, let me see." Yan Yuhe's voice was irresistibly gentle.

Li Wanji had no choice but to lie down obediently and allow him to examine her.

Yan Yuhe carefully checked her ankle and saw that the bells had disappeared, and she couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Where's the bell?" he asked softly.

"Oh, that... I thought it was a bit in the way, so I took it off." Li Wanji explained guiltily.

Yan Yuhe didn't say much, just gently rubbed her ankle and asked softly, "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

"Much better, thank you." Li Wanji thanked softly, and the panic in her heart gradually subsided.

"Wan Ji, are you hiding something from me?" Yan Yuhe suddenly asked seriously.

Why did he suddenly ask this? Could it be that Yan Yuhe discovered something?

Li Wanji was shocked, but tried to remain calm.

"I..." She opened her mouth, but didn't know where to start.

"It doesn't matter. You don't have to say it if you don't want to." Seeing that she was in trouble, Yan Yuhe couldn't bear to force her to continue.

He gently put her feet back into the quilt and reminded her, "Have a good rest and don't let your mind wander."

After saying that, Yan Yuhe stood up and left, closing the door gently.

Li Wanji lay on her side and gently stroked her belly. In three days, the babies would be born.

But she hadn't found a chance to ask Yan Yuhe to find someone to help her refine the "Lingxi Pill", so she would have to stay in the Biluo Sea for some more time.

But Canglanzi was really crazy and wanted to drag her to the edge of the "abyss" at any time to test her. She really didn't want to continue to tangle with him.

When Li Wanji was thinking about what to do next, she heard a slight noise outside the window.

"Yu He." She called softly, but the only response she got was silence.

Li Wanji was confused, did she hear it wrong?

She was about to lie down and continue to rest, but suddenly she heard a gentle male voice in her ears: "Wan Ji, it's me."

She sat up suddenly, and what came into her sight was Canglanzi's handsome face.

"Why are you here?" Li Wanji was so shocked that she took a step back and hit the soft pillow behind her.

"What's wrong? Wan Ji, are you disappointed to see it's me?" Canglanzi curled the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at her with a smile.

"Are you crazy? This is Yulan Palace." Li Wanji's voice was low, full of panic and vigilance.

"I know? So what?" Canglanzi approached step by step until Li Wanji was forced to the corner of the bed, with no way to retreat.
