"How could I revenge without the golden core?" Jiang Cheng kept laughing as Wei Ying and Lan Mei couldn't help but freeze in utter horror as lighting struck outside.
"Wei Wuxian! Why did you save me? Stay alive just to witness how the damned Wens ran rampant while there's nothing I can do?!" Jiang Cheng continued laughing and Wen Ning came back with the medicine.
Jiang Cheng's pupils shrunk in horror once he spotted the Wen robes. He angrily got up but Wei Ying and Lan Mei held him back, "Why's a damned Wen here?" He yelled. "Jiang Cheng! You're still injured, lay back down!" Lan Mei demanded, "Why aren't you moving? The damned Wen is here!! Kill him!!!" Jiang Cheng shouted.
"Jiang Cheng, calm down" Wei Ying said, "Where are we? You walked into this trap willingly?!" Jiang Cheng kept yelling.
"No"
"No? How did you come back here? Don't tell me you resorted to the damned Wens?!" Jiang Cheng started coughing and Lan Mei made him sit down, "Jiang Cheng. Please calm down. You are internally wounded..." Jiang Cheng pushed Wei Ying away and pulled Lan Mei closer to him.
"Well now. My parents had just been gone, and you defected to the damned Wens right away? What a brilliant senior disciple of Yunmeng Jiang Clan!"
"Jiang Cheng... you're hurting me..." Lan Mei gasped, but Jiang Cheng's loud laughter overlayed her groaning in pain as he continued bringing her closer. A needle zipped through and hit Cheng's head before he passed out. Lan Mei freed herself and stared at an unconscious Cheng with a pitiful look.
"Are you crazy?! So loud as if you're not scared of being discovered"
"Jiang Cheng!" Wei Ying rushed to his unconscious brother, "I'll throw you out if you dare to make any noise again!" Wen Qing angrily said. Lan Mei stood up from the bed and bowed, "Forgive him, Miss Wen. He's... going through a lot right now. I promise that it won't happen again"
"That needle. Pull it out when he's almost recovered. So that he won't cause trouble here" Wen Qing said.
Lan Mei bowed again as Wen Qing picked up a bowl from the floor, sniffed it and glared at Wen Ning.
