Chapter 2602: Chapter 2602: We Have to Save Him!
Their plan was meticulous, agreeing that if the ambush failed, they would retreat.
So their escape was swift.
"Yufei—" Ruan Tianling pushed Nangong Yi off Jian Yufei.
"Yufei, are you okay?!" He pulled her up, asking anxiously.
Jian Yufei shook her head, "I’m okay. Are you okay?"
"I’m fine."
"Was it Nangong Yi who saved me?"
Only then did Ruan Tianling shift his attention to Nangong Yi.
The castle remained in pitch darkness, with only shadows visible.
Jian Yufei bent down to help Nangong Yi up, "Where are you hurt?"
Ruan Tianling’s eyesight was better than Jian Yufei’s.
He circled to the other side to help him up.
In the outside light, he saw the handle of the dinner knife glowing white.
Jian Yufei saw it too.
She reached out and felt something wet.
"Ruan Tianling, we have to save him!" Jian Yufei said firmly.
Temporarily not speaking about the things Nangong Yi had done to them before.
Just now, he saved her. If he hadn’t blocked the knife for her, it probably would have pierced her heart.
Considering the other party aimed well, even in the darkness, they could strike fast and precisely.
So he saved her, and she wouldn’t let him die.
Ruan Tianling spoke in a low voice, "First, support him to the window."
"Okay!"
At least outside there were street lights, the light by the window was slightly brighter.
They helped Nangong Yi to the window, letting him partially lie on the ground.
Only then did Jian Yufei see clearly that the long dinner knife had completely pierced into his body.
It showed how determined the opponent was to kill her.
Nangong Yi’s face was pale, in so much pain he nearly lost consciousness.
And his suit was soaked in blood—
"What should we do?" Jian Yufei furrowed her brows and asked Ruan Tianling.
Ruan Tianling glanced around. Those few people had already hidden, estimating they wouldn’t attempt another ambush that night.
He had previously injured each of them, so they definitely wouldn’t come out again.
"I’ll find something!"
Ruan Tianling got up and found some first aid materials in the living room.
There were towels they used before, cushions from the sofa...
He brought these over and used his dinner knife to cut open Nangong Yi’s clothes.
"You hold his body steady, don’t let him move."
"Okay."
Ruan Tianling picked up a towel, tearing a fine thread from it.
Then he took out a needle from his belt, broke off the larger end, and wrapped the fine thread around the needle.
Jian Yufei asked softly, "Are you going to sew him up?"
"Yes. But without sterilization, there’s only so much we can do."
"Just do what we can."
Jian Yufei thought, since not saving Nangong Yi meant almost certain death, they might as well try.
Maybe they could save him.
Ruan Tianling prepared everything and was about to pull out the knife.
"Hold his body steady, I’m going to remove the knife."
"Okay!" Jian Yufei nodded.
Ruan Tianling took a folded towel, skillfully pulling out the knife, and immediately pressed the towel against his wound to prevent blood from spraying.
"Ah..." Nangong Yi let out a low cry of pain, obviously enduring as much as possible before he made a sound.
Ruan Tianling said to him in a deep voice, "Now that you’re awake, don’t fall asleep again, or you might not wake up."
Whether Nangong Yi understood or not was unclear, but he tried very hard not to pass out.
Removing the towel, Ruan Tianling quickly stitched up his wound with the needle.
