After returning home, An Xiuyuan sat in his study in a daze, seemingly lost in thought.
Hearing that Wang Yuzhen had arrived, he finally came to his senses.
Why are you here?
"Brother Xiuyuan, I heard from the servants that you have been staying in your study and haven't come out, so I specially made two of your favorite dishes and brought them to you."
"Zhen'er, you're so thoughtful." An Xiuyuan stepped forward, took Wang Yuzhen's hand, and pulled her to sit down beside him.
"Brother Xiuyuan, you seem to be in a bad mood. Is something on your mind?" After sitting down, Wang Yuzhen leaned against An Xiuyuan and asked tentatively.
She wanted to know what An Xiuyuan had gone to Yunzhi for, but she didn't dare to ask directly, so she could only inquire indirectly.
An Xiuyuan looked down at Wang Yuzhen, who had a worried expression on her face, and gently pinched her cheek, saying, "I only found out today that I've been poisoned."
"Poisoned?" Wang Yuzhen feigned surprise, as she had long suspected that An Xiuyuan's inability to function was due to poisoning.
Previously, it was just a suspicion. But now, An Xiuyuan's words undoubtedly told her that it was true.
So, who poisoned An Xiuyuan?
Could it really be Yunzhi?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ask directly, "Who poisoned you? Was it Yunzhi?"
“No!” An Xiuyuan shook his head and said, “It was her maid Rulan who gave birth to her.”
When she first heard the first half of An Xiuyuan's sentence, she thought she had guessed wrong.
So that's not the case.
Therefore, she said directly, "Even if it was her maid who did it, it was definitely under her orders, and it's no different from her doing it herself."
“She didn’t know.” An Xiuyuan couldn’t help but defend Yunzhi.
Now, Wang Yuzhen was unhappy. She looked up at An Xiuyuan and said, "Brother Xiuyuan, are you still thinking about her? Yes, she's richer and prettier than me, so it's understandable that you're thinking about her. Or, I should leave and give her my seat."
Wang Yuzhen pretended to be angry and made a scene, all in order to use a feigned retreat as a tactic to advance.
Sure enough, upon hearing her words, An Xiuyuan hugged her tightly and said, "Zhen'er, what nonsense are you talking about? You can only be my wife, and I would rather die than let you leave."
"You said it yourself, so you can't go back on your word later."
"Zhen'er, when have I ever gone back on my word?"
Wang Yuzhen made a fuss for a moment, then stopped while she was ahead. She looked up at An Xiuyuan and asked, "Brother Xiuyuan, did you ask her for the antidote?"
"No!" An Xiuyuan shook his head, and fearing that Wang Yuzhen would be anxious, he immediately added, "However, don't worry, I have already found someone who can cure the poison."
"real?"
"Of course it's true, would I lie to you? However, they said it would take three days to prepare the antidote, so we'll have to wait a little longer."
"That's alright. As long as the poison in your body can be cured, I'll wait as long as it takes."
"Don't worry, that person shouldn't be lying to me. Even if he is, I can just ask Yunzhi for the antidote later."
"You are not allowed to beg her."
"Okay, okay, okay, I'll listen to you and not beg her."
"Oh dear, look at me, I was so busy talking to you that the food is getting cold." Wang Yuzhen said as she stepped out of An Xiuyuan's arms to get the food box.
While the couple were eating in the study, Qiu Feng was preparing the antidote.
Just then, Qiu Qing returned and said to Qiu Feng, "Young Master, I have found out that An Xiuyuan's ex-wife is none other than Yun Zhi."
