Chapter 183 Brother Ajiu, you are so kind!

In the end, Dr. Zhao confessed.

Her husband, Zhao Dongsheng, who went on a mission with Pei Jiuyan and Zanzan's biological father Zhou Zhou three years ago, did not die. Instead, he was captured by the Japanese when he was stranded at sea.

In the past two years, Zhao Dongsheng has become a "drug user" for the Japanese. The Japanese are keen on researching all kinds of poisons and biological weapons. They have tested all these things on Zhao Dongsheng, but they have never been able to get anything out of him.

Later, the Japanese poisons became increasingly terrifying and perverse, and Zhao Dongsheng's mind began to be affected. When he was not in a state of consciousness, he would utter some key information, which led the Japanese to discover that his identity was actually related to the research on Chinese warships.

So the Japanese began investigating his background and traced it back to Dr. Zhao.

Dr. Zhao was initially reluctant, but after the Japanese showed her a video of Zhao Dongsheng suffering terribly in the laboratory, she wavered.

To prove her loyalty, the Japanese spies directly poisoned her with a drug called "Pleasure Powder," the same poison used on the three Pei brothers.

Unfortunately, Dr. Zhao only knew that this poison would not be fatal within three years, but he did not know that the "pleasure" in this "pleasure powder" actually referred to that aspect.

What's even more frightening is that almost every Japanese spy within China carries poison, which the Japanese use to control them and prevent them from defecting.

The spies placed around her, like her, were also poisoned with "pleasure powder".

So, from the day she was poisoned, different men came and went in her room every night.

At first, she refused, preferring to die. But those people showed her videos of Zhao Dongsheng, who was clearly emaciated from torture, yet he could ride on top of different women like an electric motor that never tires.

The woman's moans constantly assaulted her eardrums. She knew clearly that Zhao Dongsheng must have also been poisoned by the "pleasure drug," but she couldn't help feeling resentful. They were both poisoned, so why could she remain chaste for him? She had even been poisoned and betrayed her faith to save him! But he was playing with women!

Once her consciousness was attacked, it quickly crumbled. In her disappointment and anger, she chose to retaliate against Zhao Dongsheng in the same way.

But she didn't know that this kind of poison, if it didn't start, wouldn't be a problem, but once it started, she was like an addict, gradually becoming addicted to this strange stimulation and pleasure.

She, who had been married to Zhao Dongsheng for several years and was always too shy to make a sound during sex, began to act like the women in the videos, twisting her body like a sea snake, moaning, responding, and demanding love.

She knew these people around her were there to monitor her, but she had long since lost control, and even felt a sense of anticipation every night. Every night, as soon as it got dark and the bedroom window rattled, she couldn't help but feel excited.

But the family compound was full of people and colleagues, and she was worried that something bad might get out of her, so she simply rented a courtyard outside and moved out.

From then on, they indulged in revelry every night.

Even when she was awake during the day, she was afraid. If she continued like this, it would inevitably lead to disaster. How would she face Zhao Dongsheng when he returned?

But at night, her guilt would be swallowed up by endless desire, as if this was the only thing in the world that could bring her happiness.

This cycle repeated itself, and under the control of the drugs, she lost her body, her freedom, and her right to choose.

She even knew clearly that she might not be able to save Zhao Dongsheng. But it was better that way, because their marriage had already ended the moment he was poisoned.

Pei Jiuyan did not hide the truth from Qin Suisui after the investigation, and chose to tell her everything he could.

Qin Suisui then realized why that person had been trying to test her that night to see if she had concocted an antidote: they too had been poisoned and wanted to escape the drug's control.

Thinking of Fatty, Qin Suisui turned to Pei Jiuyan and asked, "What about Fatty?"

Knowing what she meant, Pei Jiuyan smiled and said, "Are you trying to say that if I didn't agree to take care of Fatty Gu, why did I adopt Zan Zan in the first place?"

Qin Suisui nodded.

“Actually, we contacted Zan Zan’s grandparents before, but they seemed to dislike Zhou Zhou a lot and hung up after only a few words. Having worked with Zhou Zhou for many years, we also know a little bit about him. His family doesn’t like him very much and is worried that the child will be abused if sent back, so we kept him.”

"Besides, Zhou Zhou was indeed covering for me at the time. Although we were both trying to complete the mission and each had our own role, I still feel guilty..."

Qin Suisui patted his hand, understanding what he meant.

Pei Jiuyan felt that he owed Zhou Zhou a life, and since Zhou Zhou had a bad relationship with her parents, Zanzan wouldn't have a good life if she went back. Moreover, Zanzan's maternal grandparents had passed away, and she had no other relatives. That's why he adopted Zanzan.

But Fatty's situation is different. Fatty's grandparents love him very much, and at the very least, there are his maternal grandparents. It's really not Pei Jiuyan's place to interfere. Moreover, Dr. Zhao's situation is completely different from Zhou Zhou's. She has clearly made a big mistake, and Pei Jiuyan will not care.

Qin Suisui stayed in the hospital for a few days before returning home to recuperate. It was because the medicine she prepared herself was more effective than the hospital medicine, and she felt much more comfortable at home than in the hospital.

Sun Ruwen would visit her every few days, bringing her some good stuff from the black market, or some wild fruits picked from the mountains of Hongqiding Brigade. He would also tell her about the growth of medicinal herbs and ask her for some experience.

Qin Suisui discovered that after this incident, Pei Jiuyan's hostility towards him had disappeared, and the two could even sit down to eat and drink tea in peace.

In late October, Sun Ruwen brought another large bag of Phoenix Dancong tea with the aroma of duck droppings.

Qin Suisui knew it was a good thing as soon as she smelled it, and hurriedly went to boil water to prepare tea.

As Qin Suisui squinted and enjoyed the tea, Sun Ruwen put down his teacup, rubbed his hands on his trouser leg, and cautiously spoke: "Suisui, do you know that Sun Yun is dead?"

Qin Suisui was taken aback when she heard the name for the first time.

Looking back, the last time I saw Sun Yun was when I came back from the Snake Witch Tribe. I ran into Sun Yun on the way to the farm. She asked me to help her get out of there. When I refused, she started hurling insults at me. As a result, I beat her up and poisoned her.

Could it be that he was tortured to death by poison?

Seeing the expression on Qin Suisui's face, Sun Ruwen continued, "It was the torrential rain a few days ago that caused a flash flood in the wild forest. There was a small mountain near their farm, and the mountain collapsed, with mud and rocks rolling down and killing her."

“Although I’ve severed ties with her, her entire family is dead, so the farm contacted me…”

Qin Suisui nodded, knowing that Sun Ruwen had told her this because he was afraid she would be angry with him again if she knew he had gone to collect Sun Yun's body. But the person was dead, and those past events were long gone.

However, when the topic of flash floods in the wild forest came up, Qin Suisui frowned. She remembered that the new address of the Snake Witch Tribe was on a cliff. If a flash flood occurred, would it affect them?

After she returned from the Snake Witch Tribe, she took the opportunity to thank the old man Huang Weimin and told him what her master had said.

Unfortunately, the old man Huang Weimin shook his head and said the same words he had said to the Snake Witch Tribe: "We will share the same bed in life and the same grave in death." He wanted to stay outside and be buried with his wife after he passed away.

Qin Suisui had no way to inform her master of this reply, as the Snake Witch Tribe was isolated from the outside world and could not even write letters.

Moreover, there had been frequent heavy rains during this period. According to Medford and the others, many small hills in the wilderness had experienced landslides, which made her even more worried about the situation of her master and fellow disciples.

When Pei Jiuyan came home to cook dinner that evening, Qin Suisui followed him into the kitchen.

Seeing her preoccupied expression, Pei Jiuyan smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something you can't tell me directly?"

Qin Suisui hesitated for a moment before asking, "Have you finished all your work recently?"

Pei Jiuyan looked at her, and something suddenly occurred to him: "You mean, you want to go back to the Snake Witch Tribe, right?"

Qin Suisui nodded: "That's right. It's been raining heavily lately, and I've heard that landslides frequently occur in the Wilderness Forest. The Snake Witch Tribe's location is quite dangerous, and I'm a little worried... Besides, they lost many of their people due to a landslide before, which is why they had to relocate..."

Seeing the anxious look on her face, Pei Jiuyan put down the spatula, turned around and put his arm around her shoulder: "Don't worry, I guessed you might have to go back during this time, so I've taken care of the urgent matters these past few days. I'll finish up the rest tomorrow, and we'll set off the day after tomorrow."

Qin Suisui was taken aback, then a delighted smile bloomed on her face: "You still remember that you're going to come back to the Snake Witch Tribe with me?"

Pei Jiuyan gently pinched her nose: "When have I ever forgotten something I promised you?"

Qin Suisui jumped up happily and kissed him on the cheek: "Brother Ajiu, you're so good!"

Pei Jiuyan paused as he picked up the spatula. He stared blankly for a moment, then turned around and asked inexplicably, "Baby, are you hungry now?"

Qin Suisui was a little confused. She raised her hand to look at her watch. It wasn't even six o'clock yet. She had eaten a late lunch and had eaten a lot of snacks and candies at home in the afternoon. Since her injury, Pei Jiuyan hadn't let her do any work. She just ate and slept at home every day, so she really wasn't hungry. She shook her head honestly: "I'm not hungry. Why?"

Upon hearing her reply, Pei Jiuyan turned around, smoothly replaced the wok on the coal stove with a kettle, placed the chopped vegetables beside it, covered them with a lid, and then picked her up and carried her straight upstairs.

Qin Suisui was stunned: "What are you doing?"

"You're not hungry, but I am."

"If you're hungry, go cook something. Go upstairs and do it..." Qin Suisui's face suddenly turned bright red halfway through her sentence. She instantly understood the meaning behind Pei Jiuyan's words.

Pei Jiuyan chuckled softly, leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Wife, think about it, how long has it been since I've eaten..."
