In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me!-Chapter 143: Broken Trust

Hearing this, alarm flashed through Shang Qinghua’s heart.

Very few people knew that three of his major acupoints had been damaged by sword energy.

How did Yue Mingxuan know?

Ignoring the cold poison still ravaging his body, Shang Qinghua forcefully circulated some inner energy and asked coldly, "Who told you that my acupoints were pierced by sword energy?"

Did he know about the duel with Xi Yu?

His organization and its actions were absolutely secret, how could a prince from a small country possibly know?

Shang Qinghua’s suddenly oppressive tone startled Yue Mingxuan.

Feeling wronged, Yue Mingxuan replied softly, "General Mo mentioned it when I entered just now."

For some reason, Yue Mingxuan instinctively chose to hide Xi Yu’s existence.

That answer made Shang Qinghua relax slightly.

Although Yue Mingxuan carried many secrets, Shang Qinghua still did not want the truth to place them on opposing sides. "I’m fine. You should go back," he said, his voice carrying a trace of exhaustion from forcing his inner energy.

Yue Mingxuan clearly heard the weakness and tiredness hidden in Shang Qinghua’s voice. He insisted, "I just want to check your pulse. Once I am sure you are fine, I will leave."

If he really left like this, then he would truly be the biggest fool in the world.

Facing Yue Mingxuan’s persistence, Shang Qinghua felt both helpless and slightly moved.

Without thinking, he slowly stretched out his hand.

Yue Mingxuan half-knelt down and gently placed his fingers on Shang Qinghua’s wrist.

The moment he touched it, he felt a coldness like ice.

This was a clear sign that the cold poison inside his body was acting up again.

Yue Mingxuan looked at Shang Qinghua.

After all, they had survived a landslide together.

That could be considered a life-and-death bond.

The cold poison inside his body had already reached such a serious level, yet he still insisted on acting tough in front of him.

"If you don’t get treated, you only have three months left to live." Feeling the pulse under his fingers, Yue Mingxuan became emotional. "Is this what you call being fine?"

Shang Qinghua seemed as if he had already expected this result.

He only gave a quiet "Mm" and said nothing more.

Seeing how Shang Qinghua treated his own life as if it did not matter at all, a rush of anger went straight to Yue Mingxuan’s head.

"I thought you were someone important. I didn’t expect you to be just like this. Even if you have great plans or big ambitions, once you close your eyes and stop breathing, everything will only benefit others. If you really don’t want to live, then before the sword energy in your acupoints fully explodes, you might as well leave some descendants for the Shang family. At least it won’t be a waste that you came into this world."

In his anger, Yue Mingxuan spoke without holding anything back.

His words poured out one after another like beans spilling from a bamboo tube, harshly scolding Shang Qinghua.

At first, Shang Qinghua thought Yue Mingxuan’s words sounded slightly playful.

But as he listened further, his expression suddenly changed.

The acupoints where he had been stabbed were something even Yin Zi, his closest shadow guard, did not know about.

So how did Yue Mingxuan know?

He had lied earlier.

When Shang Qinghua realized Yue Mingxuan’s lie, his mind went blank for a moment.

The man in front of him could very well become a hidden danger to the organization.

Right now, Yue Mingxuan was half-kneeling below him.

Even though his internal strength was weak at the moment, with just one palm strike, all threats could be completely removed.

His fist tightened, then loosened, again and again.

Even Yue Mingxuan noticed something was wrong.

"You must not circulate your energy anymore," Yue Mingxuan said seriously. "The cold poison inside you cannot be removed all at once. It can only be drawn out slowly."

Hearing Yue Mingxuan’s concerned words and meeting those clear, honest eyes, Shang Qinghua finally dropped his hand weakly. "Leave. I don’t want to see you."

This was the first time Shang Qinghua had allowed his personal feelings to interfere with matters of the organization.

Once his injuries healed, he would naturally go to his master and accept punishment.

Shang Qinghua’s words almost drove Yue Mingxuan mad.

Such a grown man, yet his mood changed like a child’s, sunny one moment and stormy the next.

However, thinking that the man in front of him was still a patient, Yue Mingxuan forcibly swallowed his anger. "If you don’t want to see me, then close your eyes. Your illness must be treated, no matter what."

Shang Qinghua leaned forward and used his finger to lift Yue Mingxuan’s chin. "I’ll say it one more time. I don’t want to see you."

Yue Mingxuan turned his head and avoided Shang Qinghua’s fingers.

Why did men in ancient times all like doing this?

His chin was about to grow calluses. "Shang Qinghua, what is wrong with you? If you hadn’t saved me before, I wouldn’t bother coming here to treat you. Medical treatment costs money. I’m treating you for free, and you’re still putting on airs."

Shang Qinghua saw that Yue Mingxuan had no intention of leaving, so he decided to speak clearly and stop avoiding the issue.

"I have no way to trust you," Shang Qinghua said.

Hearing this, Yue Mingxuan almost wanted to grab Shang Qinghua by the ears and shout at him.

If he could not trust him, then why had he done all those things before?

Who was it that eagerly paid money and asked him to treat the cold poison?

Who was it that came uninvited at night again and again to enjoy private treatment?

And now, with just one sentence, he said he could not trust him.

Yue Mingxuan nearly wanted to laugh bitterly and spit in his face.

"What did I ever do to you?" Yue Mingxuan asked angrily.

He thought carefully about it.

Aside from owing Shang Qinghua some gold, he really had not done anything that wronged him.
