"Shufang! When did you become so fussy? It's just a bowl of soup. Just take a couple of sips to put Yuxin at ease. The soup isn't poisonous, so why can't you drink it!"
Seeing Shufang's state, Aunt Mu became extremely anxious and urged her on.
And sure enough, Aunt Mu's seemingly accidental remark turned out to be correct; the soup was indeed poisonous.
Hearing Aunt Mu's words, Shufang was already feeling guilty. When Aunt Mu hit the nail on the head, she was so frightened that her hand trembled and the soup in her hand fell to the ground, and the whole bowl of soup was gone.
Shufang quickly stood up and said in a flustered manner:
"I remember my mother called me to come over, so I'll head back now!"
Then they fled in panic.
Aunt Mu watched Shufang's retreating figure and asked in confusion:
"What's wrong with this girl? She's acting strangely, she's not usually like this. Come on, let's ignore her, she's just temperamental, she'll be fine tomorrow, let's continue eating!"
Aunt Mu is really carefree. Seeing that Shufang had left, she didn't care and pulled Lin Yuxin and the others to continue eating.
"Mmm, eat! I'm not full yet!"
Lin Yuxin also stopped crying, wiped her tears haphazardly, nodded in agreement, and picked up her chopsticks to continue eating.
【Ugh! I'm starving after acting all day!!】
Li Xiaochen and Xiao Hao were speechless. They had just seen Lin Yuxin drink the soup and were worried that she might be poisoned, so they had been very nervous.
But to my surprise, they ate and drank as usual, without any problems at all!
Helpless, the two picked up their chopsticks and continued eating.
Afterwards, Lin Yuxin and the other two tacitly avoided touching the bowl of soup, and also made an excuse not to let Aunt Mu touch it. Until they finished eating, when Lin Yuxin was helping to clean up the dishes, she picked up the bowl of soup and poured it out on the way to the kitchen.
Shufang, who had just left, came to her senses. She had almost been exposed. She gritted her teeth, thinking of the sip Lin Yuxin had taken, and then walked in another direction. She wanted to find that woman and see if the poison had been successfully administered.
Aunt Mu was busy in the kitchen, while Lin Yuxin stood by the door looking outside with a slightly cold gaze.
"What are you thinking about? Was there something wrong with that soup? I noticed something off about the way you looked at me earlier."
Li Xiaochen walked over, put his arm around her shoulder, and asked softly.
"If I were to pursue your unwanted suitors, would you feel bad?"
Lin Yuxin didn't answer directly, but turned her head, raised her eyebrows, looked at him, and asked a question in a low voice.
"What are you saying? I have nothing to do with her, and you yourself said it's a bad match. Since it's bad, Madam can help me deal with it."
Li Xiaochen reacted quickly to this potentially disastrous question and immediately spoke seriously.
"Who's your wife! Humph! She poisoned that soup with a curse, a love potion."
Lin Yuxin rolled her eyes, glared at him, and then said seriously.
"Sister, you drank so much! Are you alright?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hao hurriedly came over with concern and asked.
"Don't worry, you know your sister's abilities. Although I don't know how to use this curse, I have a way to break it! It's just not now."
Lin Yuxin patted Xiao Hao's head and comforted him.
Then he said to Li Xiaochen:
"Judging from the way she looked just now, she probably wanted to use a spell on you to make you fall in love with her. This 'heart-to-heart spell,' as the name suggests, is when the person who casts the spell and the person who planted it fall in love and are of one heart."
"It's clear that Shufang is completely mad for you! Aren't you tempted?"
Lin Yuxin's gaze towards Li Xiaochen was full of teasing!
"You heartless little thing, you don't even know how to protect your own husband. What, am I not important to you at all?"
Li Xiaochen gritted his teeth, reached out and pinched Lin Yuxin's face, asking fiercely as if she would be dead if she said it wasn't important.
"Important? Of course you're important. You're the most important person to me. I just feel that Shufang's poisoning came about in a rather strange way. I just don't know who gave it to her."
Seeing that things were not going well, Lin Yuxin quickly tried to smooth things over, her eyes turning slightly cold as if she had thought of something.
"Don't worry, since she dared to use witchcraft, she'll eventually slip up!"
Li Xiaochen spoke calmly.
"Sister, should we just have her arrested and interrogated?"
Xiao Hao looked up and asked, "What's the point of keeping someone like that around?"
"Sister wants to play the long game and catch a big fish. Let's keep her for now, but we'll still need your help, Brother Xiao Chen."
Lin Yuxin looked at Xiao Hao with a mysterious expression.
"What do you want?"
Li Xiaochen frowned. He had guessed Lin Yuxin's thoughts, and he didn't really want to agree!
"Sweetie! I'll make you suffer this once! I'll let you kiss me a couple of times tonight?"
Lin Yuxin noticed his resistance, her eyes darted around, and she leaned in and whispered something in his ear!
"How do you want me to kiss you?"
Li Xiaochen's eyes lit up, and he began to negotiate terms!
[This slut!]
"Okay! You decide on the rest!"
Lin Yuxin rolled her eyes, feeling that she would regret her decision, but thinking that he was her man anyway, she figured it wouldn't hurt to let him kiss her a couple of times! She gritted her teeth and agreed.
Xiao Hao glanced at the two of them and felt that they didn't care about him at all anymore, saying things that were inappropriate for children right in front of him.
Xiao Hao turned and walked out speechlessly, heading straight for the kitchen. He decided to go find Aunt Mu to play with! Those two were too wicked!
...
On the other side, Shufang walked towards the beach where she had been arrested, and seeing no one there, she shouted into the air:
"Come out here! Where are you? I need to talk to you!"
Shufang called out a few times, and the man in black actually came out.
"What's wrong?"
The woman stood on the rocky cliff, frowning as she asked in a cold voice.
"I...I put poison in the soup. The man didn't drink it, but the woman did! Did it work?"
