Chapter 176 Are You in Love with Him?
Song Yanxi looked at Xi Lin, who was lying on the ground foaming at the mouth and obviously unconscious, with a look of wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Mo Jinchuan took a sip of tea and said calmly, "The poison was put on the fruit he picked up."
Hearing this, Song Yanxi nodded in understanding.
This really seems like something Doctor Xilin would do.
She asked, "Is there any fruit left?"
An Yi quickly handed her the core.
Song Yanxi held it with her handkerchief, looked at it, and then sniffed it. Her brows furrowed as she asked, "Who did he offend to make the other party go to such great lengths to take his life?"
Mo Jinchuan frowned and asked, "Is there any difficulty?"
"It's not difficult, but..." Song Yanxi paused, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Girl, just say whatever you want."
As Song Yanxi opened the needle package, she said, "Why don't I tell the prince how the other party poisoned him?"
Mo Jinchuan: "I'm all ears."
"The one they used was the famous Lover's Drunk from the Western Regions, also known as Three Steps Down. It's colorless when in water, but has a slightly bitter taste. It's usually applied to lipstick by girls to punish unfaithful lovers."
While talking, Song Yanxi did not delay, inserting the needle quickly and steadily.
Xi Lin's eyelids twitched, and he didn't know whether he woke up or the poison took effect too quickly, causing his body to convulse.
Thinking of what he just said about the taste being wrong, Mo Jinchuan said with a half-smile: "It's not that he has no sense of taste, he's just stupid."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Yanxi glanced at Xi Lin's clenched fist.
I clearly heard their conversation.
Thinking that he was pretending to be unconscious because he felt embarrassed, Song Yanxi saw his eyelids twitching rapidly. When he could no longer bear it and wanted to open his mouth to refute, a silver needle pierced directly into his sleeping hole.
Xi Lin suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Song Yanxi in disbelief.
He opened his mouth, but only had time to say "You really are not a good person either" before his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
What do you mean she is not a good person either?
The other one, couldn't it be His Royal Highness Prince Jin...
Meeting Song Yanxi's suspicious eyes, Mo Jinchuan raised the corners of his lips and said, "General Xu has a welcoming banquet tonight. He probably can't go in this state. Could you trouble Miss Song to accompany me?"
Without waiting for Song Yanxi to refuse, he continued, "You know Zhuang Shihan's personality. Although she has come here to test the waters, she may not give up."
He chuckled and said very considerately, "If it's inconvenient for you, just pretend that I haven't spoken."
He was the only one who spoke, and even the way out was paved for Song Yanxi. What else could she say?
Knowing that Mo Jinchuan might have done it on purpose, Song Yanxi's pretty face turned slightly cold. Just as she was about to refuse, she heard a muffled "bang" sound beside her.
She turned her head and saw An Yi kneeling straight.
Song Yanxi's expression grew even colder, and she asked in a deep voice, "What is the Dark Commander doing?"
Mo Jinchuan's face darkened instantly, and he shouted coldly, "Get out!"
An Yi clenched his fists, replied with a reluctant "yes", stood up and was about to leave.
Realizing that something was amiss between the master and servant, Song Yanxi stopped An Yi and asked, "Were the burns on the prince's legs caused by Zhuang Shihan?"
An Yi's body suddenly stiffened and he stopped.
He didn't say a word, but Song Yanxi got the answer from his reaction.
"How dare she?!" Thinking of the large burn on Mo Jinchuan's leg, Song Yanxi's fingertips trembled slightly, and her usually cold eyes were filled with unconcealable hatred.
As a doctor, if she couldn't diagnose the problem, shouldn't she immediately doubt her own medical skills?
How could she use such despicable means and still have the nerve to claim that she is from the Divine Doctor Valley? The Divine Doctor Valley does not have disciples like her who only know how to commit violent crimes and have no medical ethics at all!
Catching a hint of heartache in her eyes, Mo Jinchuan suppressed the upward movement of the corners of his mouth and said calmly: "It's okay, it's just a minor injury, you don't have to take it to heart."
"How can this be considered a minor injury? Do you know that you almost..."
"How about almost?"
Meeting his eyes that were filled with a gentle smile, Song Yanxi choked, and the redness at the corners of her eyes moved to her cheeks, and she felt her face burning.
She stood up suddenly, her tone somewhat anxious, "I'll go back and change my clothes and come back. Please wait a moment, Your Majesty."
Mo Jinchuan's lips curled slightly, his voice gentle, "Don't worry, I'll wait for you here."
Song Yanxi responded vaguely, not daring to even look at him for another second. She blushed and lowered her head as she quickly walked away.
After leaving the yard, she was blown in the face by the cold wind. She calmed down instantly and realized that something was wrong.
His Royal Highness Prince Jin seems to have been different since this morning.
Although he had said some ambiguous things before, he looked very serious and did not let people have any bad thoughts.
But his every word and action today, even the smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, were so misleading that people couldn't help but imagine.
Did he know that such an action would make her think that he had feelings for her...
Given His Royal Highness Prince Jin's intelligence, he probably knows it.
There is only one explanation.
He did it on purpose.
Realizing this, Song Yanxi felt her cheeks getting even hotter, as if they were burning.
She raised her hand and touched her chest, feeling the unusual rhythm, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes.
She had just checked her pulse at noon and she was in good health without any discomfort, so why did she suddenly have symptoms of palpitations recently?
Song Yanxi thought about it carefully and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Every time she had heart palpitations, she was by the side of His Royal Highness Prince Jin, and her cheeks were hot.
It seems...it seems to be the symptoms of a young girl in love as described in the book.
Could it be that she had some thoughts about His Royal Highness Prince Jin that she shouldn't have?
Song Yanxi quickly slapped her face and couldn't help cursing herself in her heart for having no self-control and forgetting her original intention.
But then she thought, what girl wouldn't like someone like His Royal Highness Prince Jin, who is not only a handsome young man in front of others, but also a hero wearing silver armor and holding a sword to go into battle to defend his country?
She is just an ordinary person.
After figuring this out, Song Yanxi smiled with relief and quickened her pace.
Since I have promised His Royal Highness Prince Jin to go with him, I naturally cannot keep him waiting for long.
Song Yanxi turned around the corridor and saw a figure standing there who had obviously been waiting for a long time. The smile in her eyes disappeared instantly and was replaced by deep disgust.
Why didn’t you kill him last night?
Seeing her turn to leave, Lin Tingfeng limped forward a few steps and asked in a deep voice, "Did you come out of His Royal Highness Prince Jin's courtyard?"
Song Yanxi didn't even turn around and said coldly, "General Lin doesn't seem to have the right to interfere in my affairs."
Lin Tingfeng was furious and scolded, "Look at what you're like now. Is this how your tutor taught you to talk to your husband?"
Hearing this, Song Yanxi turned around and looked at him, smiling and saying, "So it's my husband. I thought someone's door was not closed properly and let you out."
"Song Yanxi, you are so outrageous!"
Song Yanxi raised an eyebrow and asked, "How outrageous is that? Is it even more outrageous than General Lin being a thief on the roof in the middle of the night?"
"You!" Lin Tingfeng's face turned red with anger, but he couldn't say anything to refute for a while.
Noticing the blush on Song Yanxi's cheeks that had not faded, and recalling her cold attitude last night when she didn't even let him touch her, his whole face instantly became gloomy.
He stared at Song Yanxi intently, almost squeezing out a word from between his teeth.
"Are you in love with him?"
