Lin Yi didn’t expect the girl to be grateful, but it seemed she had no intention of letting him off!

While Lin Yi was focused on boiling the medicine and didn’t turn to acknowledge the girl, a killing intent came from behind him, and the jade pendant on his mountain also moved, sending a signal of danger.

Lin Yi frowned, but at this critical moment of boiling the medicine, he didn’t want to be distracted. "Stop fooling around!"

Yang Qiqi’s heart was conflicted at this moment. Although she fainted from excessive blood loss on the way out of the pharmacy, she regained some consciousness when Lin Yi pulled down her pants, which aggravated her wound. Her mind became a bit clearer, but due to her weak state, she didn’t even have the strength to open her eyes and fainted again.

Later, when Lin Yi treated her wound and applied medicine, Yang Qiqi woke up in pain again and immediately fainted. So, she still had a vague memory of what happened afterward.

It was this man in the room who saved her, but at the same time, he saw things he shouldn’t have seen! Her face, her legs… This was something Yang Qiqi could never tolerate!

Although killing her savior made her feel uneasy, her beauty was something she reserved only for one man. This man in the room had already crossed her line!

Having made up her mind, Yang Qiqi quietly picked up her dagger from the bedside and tiptoed behind Lin Yi. However, seeing him fully focused on boiling the medicine, Yang Qiqi hesitated. Was he boiling medicine for her? Her heart warmed, and she felt a bit reluctant to act.

Yang Qiqi admitted that her heart couldn’t be as cold as other killers. No matter what, this man in the room was her savior!

Just as Yang Qiqi was hesitating, Lin Yi scolded her like a child, telling her to "stop fooling around!" This made Yang Qiqi clearly pause. She was about to kill him, and he told her to stop fooling around?

Did he think she was just wandering around the room?

"Didn’t you hear the story of Mr. Dongguo when you were a child?" Lin Yi still didn’t turn around and said to himself, "I feel like I’m the Mr. Dongguo in that story now."

Yang Qiqi’s expression changed. She naturally knew the story of Mr. Dongguo. Although she grew up in a killer organization, she was different from other killers. Besides her killer training, she also received other formal education.

The story of Mr. Dongguo is a classic fable about a man named Mr. Dongguo who saved a wolf, only for the wolf to turn around and try to eat him.

However, Lin Yi’s words also reminded Yang Qiqi that his "stop fooling around" wasn’t said casually. He had already sensed that she was trying to kill him!

His mention of the Mr. Dongguo story proved this point. He was subtly accusing her of ingratitude!

Who is this man? Yang Qiqi was startled. He could sense her intentions from behind without reacting. Was he overconfident, or…

Then, the purpose of this man treating her wounds was questionable! A chill ran through Yang Qiqi’s heart, and she made up her mind. Her dagger moved faster, and she decisively aimed at Lin Yi’s neck without hesitation.

Lin Yi didn’t expect this female killer to still be at it, taking advantage of his hands being occupied. He frowned, suddenly turned his head, and avoided Yang Qiqi’s dagger. He then opened his mouth and bit down on the dagger, naturally biting her fingers as well.

"Ah—" Yang Qiqi’s hand hurt, and the dagger fell from her grasp. Her body was still weak, and she could only stand and walk to Lin Yi’s back by sheer willpower. After the dagger fell, Yang Qiqi felt as if she had collapsed, sitting on the floor and panting heavily. Her leg wound seemed to have been aggravated, and cold sweat trickled down her forehead.

Lin Yi spat out the dagger and continued boiling the medicine. "You are indeed ungrateful! But fine, a real man doesn’t fight with a woman. You’d better leave now, or I might not be able to resist killing you after I finish boiling the medicine."

Yang Qiqi now understood that Lin Yi was no ordinary person. Could an ordinary person dodge her sneak attack? Could an ordinary person bite a dagger? From Lin Yi’s words, she also understood that the Chinese medicine he was boiling wasn’t for her; she had been mistaken!

"Hmph!" Yang Qiqi’s eyes were filled with humiliation and unwillingness. She wasn’t rash; as a killer, she couldn’t afford to be. Rash killers were killed first and couldn’t survive to this day.

Since Lin Yi could easily take her dagger even with his hands occupied, Yang Qiqi gave up the idea of continuing to attack. She wasn’t Lin Yi’s match! Even when she wasn’t injured, she couldn’t guarantee that she could deal with this man!

This man had no killing intent, not even a trace, but he gave her an unfathomable feeling! A truly unfathomable feeling, the kind she only felt when facing her father in the organization.

Yang Qiqi silently picked up her leather pants from the floor. Although they were bloody, the blood had dried, and they didn’t affect her appearance much. The key issue was that there were no other clothes to change into in the room.

"Remember to close the door when you leave." Lin Yi said to Yang Qiqi as if he had eyes in the back of his head.

"…" Yang Qiqi left the room and slammed the door shut.

"One, I’m sorry, this man saved my life, and I’m not his match now… But don’t worry, I’ll remember him. One day, I’ll kill him myself because I’m only yours, Qiqi…" Yang Qiqi silently made a vow. In fact, Yang Qiqi wasn’t originally named Yang Qiqi; "Seven" was just a code name for the graduation test group of killers. She was the youngest, so she was naturally the seventh. The other members of the group were also named with numbers.

And Lin Yi, who was boiling medicine in the room, didn’t know that his good deed had made him a target.

"Achoo!" Lin Yi sneezed. He thought to himself, I’ve smelled this Chinese medicine before, why am I sneezing? This is the second sneeze today. Lin Yi sniffed, could I really be catching a cold?

When did my body become so weak? I catch a cold as soon as I get to Songshan. Could it be because I’m too idle?
