In the quiet room, a little maid had just fed Ding Si medicine and was preparing to pack up and go out.

There was a slight sound behind her, and the maid Xiaoqin immediately turned around to see what was happening. Before she could see clearly what was happening, a knife was pressed against her neck.

The sharp sword made her freeze on the spot, and the tray in her hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

Ding Si, who was still unconscious, had walked behind the little maid at some point. His whole body was still wrapped in gauze, and his cold eyes were full of vigilance.

The voice was slightly hoarse: "Where is this?"

The little maidservant didn't dare to breathe, let alone move an inch, for fear of being stabbed in the neck.

She replied tremblingly: "This... This is... Yongding Marquis Mansion."

"Who brought me here?"

"Yes... it's our second son."

When he heard that it was Xie Chengyin, the vigilance in Ding Si's eyes faded a little, but he still did not move the blade on the maid's neck.

"Take me to see your second son."

"well."

The little maidservant responded with fear and walked towards the door almost step by step.

But after taking two steps, brisk footsteps were heard outside the door, and a crisp sound followed the footsteps into the room.

"Xiaoqin."

As soon as Sixian entered the house, he saw the scene inside and his pair of black eyes widened.

"You! You guys!"

Ding Si grabbed the maid Xiaoqin's shoulder with one hand and put the blade of his other hand closer to Xiaoqin's neck, "You step back, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, what would you do? Kill her?" Sixian crossed his arms over his chest and raised his head to look at Ding Si and Xiaoqin. "She has been taking care of you these days. Are you going to treat your benefactor like this?"

Ding Si's eyes paused slightly, and the hand holding the knife hesitated for a moment.

At this moment, Sixian's eyes flashed, and he seized the opportunity and raised his hand to chop at Ding Si's hand holding the knife.

Ding Si had no intention of hurting the little maid in front of him, and he knew from Sixian that she was the one taking care of him, so when Sixian attacked, Ding Si immediately pushed Xiaoqin aside.

Seeing that Xiaoqin was out of danger, Sixian showed even less mercy to Ding Si.

"You are tired of living by holding our people hostage in our Yongding Marquis Mansion."

Although Sixian is a woman, she is just as ruthless as a man.

In addition, Ding Si had just woken up, and his seriously injured body was already a little weak. He was actually at a disadvantage under the attack of Sixian.

Just as Sixian was about to hit Ding Si's wound with his palm, a green figure suddenly appeared and stood in front of Ding Si, raising his hand to fight back at the attacking palm.

Sixian didn't expect anyone to intervene. He thought that this attack would definitely teach Ding Si a lesson, but he didn't expect that he would be knocked back several steps.

He looked at the person with anger in his eyes and found that it was a fair-skinned girl.

Slightly startled, he was stopped by Liu Xi who came over and said, "Si Xian, what are you doing!"

Sixian turned around and looked at Liuxi, "Why are you here?"

Liu Xi raised his eyes to glance at Yan Ci who was standing in front of Ding Si, and then answered Si Xian, "I'll accompany Miss Yan to take a look."

"Miss Yan?"

She knew that a Miss Yan had come to the mansion and had been living there for a few days. She heard that she was brought back by the young master himself.

The young master had never brought a woman back home, let alone let a woman live in the mansion. She was surprised and curious about the woman.

So she rushed back without stopping as soon as she completed the task, wanting to see for herself what kind of Miss Yan was that made her master treat her so specially.

When she heard Liu Xi mention Miss Yan, she couldn't help but look at the little girl who was slapping her.

He has a pale face, a thin body, and looks very frail.

Sixian curled his lips, his eyes full of disdain, and said, "Are you the Miss Yan they are talking about?"

Yan Ci raised his eyes and looked at the young woman in front of him who was dressed in black and had her long hair tied into a ponytail. She looked quite heroic, but there was always a hint of contempt in her eyes, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

Yan Ci ignored her and turned to look at Ding Si, "Are you okay?"

Ding Si covered his chest and coughed heavily twice. His lips were so white that almost no blood could be seen. When he saw Yan Ci, there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes, but he suppressed it.

"I'm fine, thank you girl."

Yan Ci's lips curled up, "I should be the one to thank you. If you hadn't run to save me, I'm afraid I would have died."

Ding Si said excitedly, "No, no, you will be fine."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Si started coughing uncontrollably again, one cough after another, and his face became paler and paler.

Yan Ci turned to Liu Xi and said, "Please ask Doctor Chu to come and see him."

She was a little worried about the hits she had just received from the four-stringed instrument.

If it were in the past, these blows would not be a problem for Ding Si at all, but now Ding Si was seriously injured and had finally managed to survive. Any minor injury would cause him irreparable damage.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have risked getting injured to block the palm strike.

Liu Xi bowed and said, "I will go right away, please wait a moment, young lady."

Liu Xi went out and was completely ignored by Yan Ci from beginning to end. Si Xian finally couldn't help it.

"Did you not hear me, or are you pretending not to see me, Miss Yan?"

Yan Ci glanced at Si Xian coldly, his voice full of indifference, "Since you already know that I am the Miss Yan they are talking about, why bother asking so much."

Sixian was so angry that he said, "How can I know if you are the one if I don't ask? Don't be a dishonest person who shamelessly lives in our Yongding Marquis Mansion and pesters our young master."

Ding Si, who couldn't bear to hear any bad words about Yan Ci, looked cold and said, "Who are you calling indecent?"

Yan Ci held Ding Si back and said, "Don't pay any attention to these strangers."

"You actually called me an outsider!"

Sixian glared, looking like he was about to take action again.

"Four strings!"

A loud shout came from the door, and then Xie Chengyin hurried in from outside, followed by Chu He carrying a small medicine box.

When Sixian saw Xie Chengyin, he immediately bowed and said, "Young Master."

Xie Chengyin looked at the three people who were in a corner in the room, and his eyes fell directly on Yan Ci.

The voice was gentle: "Just now, Old Man Chu said that he left a medicine bag in your yard. I took him back to get it, and found that you were no longer in the yard. It turned out that you came here."

While Xie Chengyin explained the reason for his arrival, he walked towards Yan Ci, "Liu Xi said you asked her to invite Old Man Chu."

Yan Ci nodded and said, "Show it to Ding Si. He was just injured by your people."

Xie Chengyin paused, and when he looked at Sixian, his eyes were as cold as ice in December, "Why are you back?"

Sixian bowed his head and said, "Sir, I have completed the task you assigned to me, and I am back now."

"Finished? But I heard that you only checked half of it, and gave the rest to Wu Zhou's people and then disappeared."

Being exposed mercilessly by Xie Chengyin, Sixian was speechless to refute, and could only honestly say: "It is my fault, and I am willing to accept the punishment."

"Then go to the quiet room and reflect on your mistakes."
