Seeing his girlfriend’s reddened eyes, Rong Qinyu knew that he couldn’t keep this matter hidden from her anymore. After hesitating for a while, he finally let out a sigh.
"Back then, the doctor indeed declared you dead, but you were not dead. Someone injected a medicine to slow down your heart and make it look like you were dead."
"Why did they do it?" she asked.
"You were targeted back then. If they didn’t fake your death, you wouldn’t have been able to survive another assassination."
"Then how do you explain my wounds? I was stabbed 3 times. Not only was my heart injured, but my liver and kidneys were also injured. Even after undergoing the operation, the doctors couldn’t save me. How did you do it?"
Rong Qinyu lowered his head and said, "Ah Xiu, you know that I disappeared for 1 year."
"During that period, I was taken away by a group of people and brought to a hidden facility. There, I not only underwent hellish training but was also subjected to various experiments."
"In that place, I met someone called Jiang Ziyi. He told me to cooperate with the experiments. As long as I survived after 1 year, he would help me escape that place."
"But before I escaped, he brought back the news about your assassination. He said that he could save your life, but I would have to return this favor one day."
"So you agreed to his request?" Feng Xiu asked.
Rong Qinyu nodded.
"What did he ask you to do?" she asked again.
"He only told me to wait. When the time is right, he will tell me what to do."
After a moment of pause, he continued, "After I made a deal with him, he helped me and a group of people fake our deaths. Out of 17 people, only 7 managed to escape alive."
"After I escaped from the facility, he told me to wait in an abandoned house. When he brought you out of Yunshan Base, your wounds were already healed, and you were in a coma."
"Did he tell you what he did to me?"
Rong Qinyu nodded and replied, "He said that he used the Elixir of Immortality. This thing is very expensive, and I had to remember this debt."
When Feng Xiu heard this, her eyes flickered as shock flashed through them. "You said that he used the Elixir of Immortality on me?"
Noticing her strange reaction, Rong Qinyu asked, "Ah Xiu, do you know about this elixir?"
Instead of answering him, Feng Xiu muttered to herself, "So I did die back then." After she got her answer, she looked at her boyfriend and said, "Qinyu, never tell anyone that you know that person or anything about the elixir."
