Then, there was no sound... 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Jian Yufei couldn’t see anything and couldn’t speak.

She was extremely anxious, desperately wanting to know how Ruan Tianling was.

Suddenly, Nangong Xu’s voice sounded.

"Knocking her out was indeed a good idea, this way Jian Yufei won’t hear anything."

Jian Yufei stopped struggling, and there was the sound of Ruan Tianling’s suppressed breathing in the room.

She knew, he didn’t do it.

She just didn’t want to make any more noises to provoke him...

After Nangong Xu said that sentence, he fell silent.

Some matters are better left unsaid.

Whether Jian Yufei believes it or not, who knows.

But he really didn’t expect that Ruan Tianling would choose to endure.

The drug’s effect is strong enough to make someone lose their sanity, and one must engage with a woman to alleviate it.

If not, the whole body would have boiling blood, and when the endurance reaches the limit, the blood vessels could burst.

The person would be doomed to die.

Even if not dead, enduring it would take away half of one’s life.

Nangong Xu’s expression darkened, he was eager to see how long Ruan Tianling could endure.

However, Ruan Tianling was curled up in the corner, using the sheet to cover himself, painfully enduring.

...

Soon, half an hour passed.

Ruan Tianling still showed no sign of movement.

Nangong Xu’s expression became increasingly grim.

Jian Yufei was also very tense, her ears constantly picking up noises in the room.

In the room, apart from Ruan Tianling’s painful sounds escaping his throat, there was nothing else.

Just from hearing his sound, it was clear how hard he was enduring.

...

Then, another half hour passed...

Ruan Tianling’s body finally moved, he turned over, his whole body soaked as if he had been pulled from water.

Although he was very drained, he was no longer in pain.

He actually — made it through!

Nangong Xu clenched his fists, his eyes filled with a gloomy shadow.

Today he set up two consecutive obstacles to deal with Ruan Tianling, just to trample his dignity.

Yet he actually overcame both...

For ants like them, it’s impossible to have such strong willpower!

The first obstacle might be that he overcame it by luck, but he definitely couldn’t pass the second one.

He deliberately lied before.

That drug, if consumed, without alleviation has an 80% chance of leading to death.

This probability is already very high.

Very few people escape the fate of death.

And even if they do, half their life would be gone.

The probability of someone remaining safe is one in tens of thousands.

Yet Ruan Tianling somehow escaped, he was incredibly lucky to be that one in tens of thousands!

Thinking about his deliberate attempt to humiliate them, to ruin their relationship.

Yet the outcome turned out like this, Nangong Xu felt as though he had been slapped by them, his heart was extraordinarily angry.

Ruan Tianling still had a stance of victory as he looked at him.

"Nangong Xu, I won."

It felt like Xiao Zexin was speaking to him.

[Nangong Xu, you were defeated by me.]

Nangong Xu suppressed the anger that could destroy everything, clapping his hands: "Not bad, I didn’t expect you to endure so well. But there are a few more challenges ahead, if you actually win them all, I will let you leave."

Ruan Tianling weakly propped himself up: "The day after tomorrow, I want to duel you, how about it?"

Leaving himself a day is to recover.

Nangong Xu couldn’t possibly disagree, if he did, people would think he was afraid of losing, taking advantage of someone in a weak state.
