What were Gu Qishao’s motives for his actions?

Han Yunxi creased her brows as she stared at Tang Li, who added, “He clearly knows the extent of your skills, so he must have made that mixture on purpose. Then he could win you over to his side!”

“Or we could take a step backward. If my big bro really tricked you and Gu Qishao knew, why didn’t he give you the proof and tell you directly? Why spend so much effort on a complicated scheme? That fellow’s simply sowing discord with bad intentions!”

Han Yunxi’s expression turned complicated even as Long Feiye fell silent. Tang Li’s words had a point, because that was precisely Gu Qishao’s motive. And because of his bad intentions, Gu Qishao ended up being the tragic party of his own plot. Han Yunxi had considered these points herself, but Tang Li’s dissemination helped tip the scales in her heart. If there was any suspicion, then Gu Qishao was the most suspect. She kept silent for a long time while Long Feiye stared at her with his lips drawn into a tight, strict line.

“See, I’m not blabbering nonsense, right?” Tang Li started up the subject again with a sigh. “A striking man like my big bro, losing against the likes of Gu Qishao? Even if you’re moved by manly good looks, you should be dazzled by my big bro most.”

Han Yunxi narrowed her eyes again, but Tang Li seemed to have gotten carried away with the topic. “Han Yunxi, you’re a married woman with a husband. Thus, everything you do should be—” He abruptly lost the ability to talk before he could finish his sentence. Though he mouth was still moving desperately, no sound came out.

I’ve gone mute?

Han Yunxi glanced at him and said coldly, “Your lips must be tired from talking so much. Take a break and try again tomorrow.” Then she took Long Feiye by the hand and said, “Come on, let’s go get my medical pouch.”

Would Long Feiye save Tang Li? Of course not. Although the man had helped with regarding Gu Qishao, he still felt like Tang Li had said too much.

Han Yunxi held Long Feiye’s hand while walking at a steady pace. Gradually, her thoughts drifted to the antidote of the Broomcorn Millet Poison again. Long Feiye kept quiet as before, knowing that Tang Li’s words would be enough to move her. Gu Qishao had the skills to find out that Mute Granny was being kept in the Hidden Pavilion, but didn’t tell Han Yunxi anything outright. Without a doubt, he wanted to conceal his actual skills. Even after being attacked by the crossbow archers, he still refused to reveal his true abilities. Just what were his motives?

He couldn’t die from a stab to the heart and had unclear relationships with both Medical City and the Poison Sect’s Poison Gu Humans.

Long Feiye was very interested in finding out about it all!

The mystery of the Broomcorn Millet antidote thus passed without a single question from Long Feiye or any mentions from Han Yunxi. Perhaps she had already drawn her own conclusions. Would the fate of Mute Granny pass by just like this?

Or would she find out the whole truth another day?

For both Long Feiye and Gu Qishao, would the incident of the Broomcorn Millet antidote be their boon or bane? That would all be determined eventually, but it was undeniable that something big would happen between Long Feiye and Gu Qishao in the future.
