Chapter 370 He Fell into a Trap
"Master, these are all purchased according to your instructions. Please have a look."
Jun Tianyi looked at the two boxes of clothes and jewelry in front of him and said with satisfaction: "Minmin loves white and blue the most. I'm sure she will like these. Send them to her tomorrow morning. She is in a bad mood right now. No one is allowed to disturb her."
As soon as Jun Tianyi finished speaking, he heard hurried footsteps outside the house. The next moment, the maid's voice came in, "Master, the lady seems to be in a bad mood. She drank a lot of wine and cried while drinking. I can't persuade her. Do you want to go and see her?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Tianyi immediately stood up and walked out.
When he arrived outside Jiang Rumin's room, he heard a sobbing sound. He looked up and saw Jiang Rumin crying on the table. He walked over quickly and put his hand on Jiang Rumin's shoulder, "Minmin..."
"Get lost!" Jiang Rumin raised her arm and shook off his hand, shouting angrily, "Leave me alone, just let me get drunk to death!"
Jun Tianyi looked at her rosy cheeks and knew that she must be drunk. He quickly picked up the jar of wine on the table and weighed it, and found that half of the jar was missing.
With Jiang Rumin's alcohol tolerance, half a jar would be enough to make her drunk.
Seeing her eyes red and swollen from crying, Jun Tianyi felt distressed. He turned around and scolded the maid, "You bastard! Who told you to get wine for the lady?"
The maid knelt down hurriedly, "Master, please forgive me. I was originally guarding outside the house. Madam said she was hungry and asked me to bring her some good wine and food. I dared not disobey..."
"Get out!"
After sending the maid away, Jun Tianyi turned around and saw Jiang Rumin lowering her head to drink the wine in her hand again, so he quickly stopped her.
"Minmin, you can't drink much. If you drink too much, you'll have a headache..."
"None of your business!" Jiang Rumin gritted her teeth and said, "Don't I even have the right to drink to drown my sorrows now? Get out of here!"
"Minmin, don't be like this." Jun Tianyi sighed, "If you are in a bad mood, hit me to vent your anger, but don't make it difficult for yourself, okay?"
Jiang Rumin suddenly calmed down after hearing that. After staring at him for a moment, she raised her hands and started beating him randomly.
"It's all your fault! You're the one who made me lose my friends and my freedom!"
"I liked you so much in the past, but did you ever respond to me? You never cared about me, you only cared about Jiang Yuxi! When I finally wanted to let you go, you came back to pester me again. Why on earth did you treat me like this! What on earth am I in your eyes? Am I a slave that you can summon and dismiss at will?!"
Jiang Rumin sobbed even harder as she scolded him. "Why...why did I meet someone like you? Why couldn't you just love me firmly or just give up on me decisively? Why did you give me hope and disappoint me time and time again? Why did you torture me by being so hot and cold, so distant and so close!"
When Jiang Rumin talked about the sad part, she suddenly raised her voice, then raised her hand and slapped Jun Tianyi hard on the face!
"Get out! I don't want to see you again, and I don't want to like you anymore! Get out!"
Jun Tianyi's cheeks were aching, but he didn't care at all at this moment, because his heart was filled with joy.
His previous guess turned out to be correct. Minmin didn't not love him, but she resented him too much. She resented his previous ambiguous attitude and his excessive doting on Jiang Yuxi. That was why she punished him with such a cold and distant attitude.
If he was a little unsure at the beginning about how much Jiang Rumin's feelings for him were left, he was now completely sure.
Deep down in her heart, she still longed for his love, and she hoped very much that he would only love her.
Because he did a lot of things that made her angry, her mood was naturally complicated. She seemed to be caught in a dilemma between love and hate. She couldn't tell whether she loved him more or hated him more.
Thinking of this, he walked forward and hugged Jiang Rumin.
"Minmin, don't cry. I will never make you sad or suffer again."
"What happened in the past was my fault. I promise you that from now on, there will be no Jiang Yuxi in my heart. No, not just Jiang Yuxi, there will never be anyone else except you."
"The love-hate relationship between us is too complicated to be resolved, so let's just forget about it, okay? Let's start over, and when I've taken my revenge, we can fly away and become a pair of immortal lovers."
"Minmin, believe me, I will never let you down again..."
Hearing this, Jiang Rumin broke free from his embrace and looked at him with tears in her eyes, "Want to lie to me again? I won't believe you again."
"I will never lie to you!" Jun Tianyi said in a firm tone.
"I should be... dreaming, right?" Jiang Rumin murmured, and then smiled bitterly, "I can't even get rid of you in my dreams..."
As she spoke, she raised the glass to her lips again.
Jun Tianyi sighed and snatched the wine, "Don't drink anymore!"
"No, I want to drink! Wine is a good thing. It can make people forget their troubles."
Jiang Rumin said, holding Jun Tianyi's wrist, "Will you drink with me? We won't leave until we are drunk!"
"Minmin, you are really drunk..."
"I'm not drunk, I can still drink! You accompany me, isn't the purpose of dreaming to make your wishes come true? Let's drink together and forget our troubles together..."
Jiang Rumin chuckled, lowered her head and leaned towards the wine glass in Jun Tianyi's hand.
Jun Tianyi didn't want her to drink too much and hurt her body, so he simply brought the wine in the glass to his lips and drank it all.
"Okay, I'll drink with you."
As he spoke, he picked up the jar of wine on the table and poured another glass.
"Okay, let's drink together and not leave until we're drunk!"
Incited by Jiang Rumin, Jun Tianyi drank several cups in a row and felt a lot more refreshed.
It really made him happy to know that Jiang Rumin always had him in her heart.
So what if there is resentment? As long as there is more love than hate, love will eventually dissolve the hate as time goes by.
"Minmin, we must always be together..."
Jun Tianyi murmured, reaching out to hug the person in front of him again.
But what he didn't expect was that when he was about to touch Jiang Rumin, she suddenly stood up and stepped back, and his hands had no object to support them, and he fell to the ground powerlessly.
The soreness in his limbs startled him suddenly.
What happened?!
Why did he suddenly lose his strength?
He instinctively looked up at Jiang Rumin, but was met with her indifferent expression.
In those beautiful pupils like autumn water, there was no drunkenness or resentment at this moment, only coldness and ridicule.
"Always together? Haha, people like you should keep your affection for yourself."
Jun Tianyi was a little bit unbelievable when he heard the voice full of contempt. He suddenly turned his head to look at the jar of wine on the table.
"impossible……"
Where did she get the medicine? She had clearly changed all her clothes into what he had prepared.
Jun Tianyi tried to get up from the ground, but his sore limbs made it difficult for him to even sit up.
"You knew you had to search me, but didn't I know to hide the medicine somewhere else? You are always so self-righteous and think you can control everything, but in the end you are just a clown."
Jiang Rumin knew that she couldn't drink much, so she didn't dare to drink too much. She poured a lot of the wine into the bonsai on the windowsill. She only drank two or three glasses and her cheeks turned slightly red. Then she pinched herself and thought about the dangerous situation of Si Niang and others, and tears came out easily.
The wine was spiked with the muscle softening powder given by the King of Medicine. She took the antidote before coming. The antidote lasts about two hours, so she has to trick Jun Tianyi into coming before the time is up.
No matter how suspicious and cautious Jun Tianyi was, he was ultimately succumbed to his arrogance.
Facing her sarcastic words, Jun Tianyi was furious, "So the affection you showed to me just now was all deliberately acted to deceive me?!"
Because of his weak body, he couldn't touch Jiang Rumin, and could only question her in a trembling voice, "Why do you treat me like this!"
He wanted to be with her forever, but she took advantage of his sincerity to scheme against him.
"Is it because I hurt Hu Si Niang and the others? How long have you known them? They are just a group of women who are greedy for wealth! When you had nothing before, who would consider you a friend? Now that you have status and fame, others come to curry favor with you one by one and compete to be your friends. How sincere do you think they are? Can you be more sober?"
Jun Tianyi was so angry that his chest heaved, "I am obviously the one who cares about you the most! In this world, who else can you love besides me..."
“Bang!”
A loud slap cut off his unfinished words.
Jiang Rumin slapped him with all her might, "You still dare to tell me you love me after all this! Your love is an attempt to control everything about me, leaving me with no freedom. You decide my life and death like a pet! You trample on my self-esteem, hurt the people around me, and force me to give up the wealth and glory I worked so hard to earn and wander around the world with you, a traitor. Your so-called love is so ridiculous! So disgusting!"
"You have nothing but a possessive desire that has been twisted to the extreme for me. Because I am your 'unrequited', and the more I cannot get you, the more you want me. In fact, you don't understand love at all. The only person you love from the beginning to the end is yourself!"
"I cried in front of you and mentioned Jiang Yuxi on purpose. Of course, I was acting for you because I know too well how conceited you are! Didn't you just want to see that I still have feelings for you and that I still miss you in my heart? Perhaps I should thank you for your conceit, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to succeed so easily."
"You still want me to reconcile with you? Don't even think about it! I, Jiang Rumin, am a divine doctor praised by everyone. Even if I die alone, I will never have anything to do with a traitor like you! Do you know that I pray every day that you will be struck by lightning!"
Jiang Rumin seldom speaks ill of others, but at this moment, she almost vents all her anger and dissatisfaction towards Jun Tianyi.
After venting, she looked at Jun Tianyi's shocked face and felt extremely happy.
She gave him hope, but then let him down, which was naturally heartbreaking for him. But what she wanted to do was more than just heartbreaking.
She picked out two relatively tough belts from Jun Tianyi's cabinet, twisted them into a rope, and then walked up to Jun Tianyi expressionlessly and tied him up despite his objections.
Jun Tianyi didn't even have the strength to struggle. Looking at Jiang Rumin's cold face, he felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
After Jiang Rumin tied him up, he picked up the jar of wine on the table, went outside, and smashed it hard on the open ground!
The sound of the wine jar breaking startled the maid nearby. When the maid came outside, she saw Jun Tianyi tied up and unable to move, and Jiang Rumin was pulling out the green jade bamboo hairpin from Jun Tianyi's hair crown and pressing it against his throat.
Jun Tianyi looked at her behavior and felt extremely angry.
Does she still remember that this jade hairpin was a gift from her to him?
The maid outside the door also changed her expression, "Madam, what are you doing!"
Isn't the owner of the manor good at kung fu? Why was he tied up by his wife?
"Don't call me Madam!" Jiang Rumin looked at the maid outside the door and said in a cool tone, "I am the Princess Duanhui canonized by the emperor. Please don't call me by the wrong name."
"Listen, tell everyone right now that I'm holding your owner hostage. If you don't want to see him die, hand over Silver Fox!"
The maid quickly turned around and ran away, and soon she led everyone out of the house.
"Princess, the owner of the manor has treated you well, why are you plotting against him like this?" Du Zhong saw that Jun Tianyi was in danger and tried to persuade Jiang Rumin, "Have you forgotten the friendship between the owner of the manor and you in the past?"
It would have been fine if he didn't mention it. As soon as he mentioned it, Jiang Rumin became angry again and stabbed Jun Tianyi's shoulder with the green jade hairpin in her hand!
Du Zhong was horrified, "Princess!"
He didn't expect Jiang Rumin to stab so decisively.
Jun Tianyi felt the sharp tip of the hairpin piercing his flesh and couldn't help but groan.
She was really cruel to him!
"If you say one more word of nonsense, I will not only stab you in the shoulder." Jiang Rumin threatened the people outside the house, "Hand over Silver Fox to me immediately. If Si Niang and the others cannot be saved, I will make Jun Tianyi be buried with them. I mean what I say."
"It's not that we don't want to hand over the silver fox!" Du Zhong explained hurriedly, "The silver fox lives and eats with the owner of the manor. Only the owner of the manor can touch it at will. No one else can get close to the silver fox!"
"You guys, with all these people, can't do anything to a silver fox? I don't believe it."
Jiang Rumin put the bloodstained hairpin against Jun Tianyi's throat again, "I don't care what method you use, I want to see Silver Fox within an hour. If you can't fulfill my request, don't blame me."
Du Zhong had no choice but to take everyone away.
"Is Silver Fox in the owner's room right now?"
"It should be. It has become accustomed to sleeping in the owner's house at night."
"Then use the old method. Prepare its favorite wine, apply glue around it to stick to it, and then you can catch it and put it in the cage."
"But after the princess takes the silver fox, will she really let it go? If she takes the owner of the manor hostage and leaves, won't we be helpless against her?"
Listening to the discussions behind him, Du Zhong frowned and said, "We must not let her take the owner of the manor hostage and leave."
"Do you have any good ideas?"
"If the silver fox can find a chance to escape from the cage, it will definitely not be polite to those who hurt its master. The princess has never practiced martial arts, so her reaction ability must be inferior to that of the silver fox."
…
Nearing the hour of Mao, there were still a few sparse stars hanging in the gray sky.
Under the guidance of the tracking butterfly, Song Yunchu and the people from Prince Ning's Mansion found a winery in the east of the city.
“It’s actually here…”
Song Yunchu looked at Zhuangzi in front of him and said in a deep voice, "Force your way in."
In the winery, Jiang Rumin waited for a long time. Just when she was about to lose her patience, Du Zhong finally appeared outside the door carrying a cage containing a silver fox.
"Princess, we helped you catch the silver fox."
