After all, Zhou Jun had never explicitly said he liked her before. Yesterday was just an accident. Perhaps Mu Yurou still held some place in Zhou Jun's heart; he was just angry that Mu Yurou had drugged him.
"Alright, sweetie, don't cry!" Han Luoxue felt a pang of heartache seeing Wang Yan like this. She cursed Zhou Jun inwardly, thinking he was a scoundrel; this man really was like a man who, after eating and drinking his fill, would pull up his pants and run off to find someone else.
"Get up and get dressed quickly, I'll go with you to see what he's doing!"
Wang Yan hesitated for a moment: "No, no need!"
"Why not use it? Let me tell you, the most important thing in a relationship is communication. If there's anything that's bothering you, you should talk to him about it promptly and discuss it properly. Like you now, no matter what you feel for Zhou Jun, or what he thinks of you, you can't just guess here. Go ahead and have a frank talk. If you can get along, great; if not..."
Han Luoxue paused for a moment: "Even if two people get married and have children, if their hearts are no longer connected, there's no need to force themselves to stay together, especially someone like you."
“I believe Zhou Jun isn’t the kind of person who starts something and then abandons it,” Zhou Jie added, trying to persuade him.
"Do you need me to help you get dressed?" Han Luoxue asked with a smile.
Wang Yan blushed: "I...no, no need, you can go out first!"
Zhou Jie quickly replied, "It's alright, it's alright! I have everything you have!"
Han Luoxue grabbed her and pulled her outside. Zhou Jie was still calling out, "Xue'er, what are you doing?"
"What you just said is true. We're both women. What she has, we both have too. What's there to be embarrassed about?"
Han Luoxue... this big idiot, if you don't know, don't make a fuss.
"Hurry up and go outside to wait. Aren't you afraid they'll feel awkward?"
The medicine Zhou Junzhong used was no ordinary medicine. It's obvious that Wang Yan must have had many marks on her body. It would be strange if she dared to change her clothes in front of them.
The two waited for a short while before Wang Yan got up, but her walking posture was a bit strange.
Zhou Jie opened her mouth as if to ask something, but Han Luoxue grabbed her arm and said, "Okay? Shall we go over now?"
Wang Yan's face turned even redder; she felt uncomfortable all over.
"I……"
"That's how all women are. You'll feel much better in a little while."
Han Luoxue smiled at her. Wang Yan's cheeks were flushed. Although Han Luoxue didn't say it explicitly, she felt that Han Luoxue was implying something.
"Ah, Sister Xue, what did you mean just now?" Zhou Jie asked, not understanding.
Han Luoxue rolled her eyes at her: "Single dog, shut up!"
Zhou Jie... so what if she hasn't found a man? What's so great about that? She'll find a handsome young man to marry someday.
...
“Young Master Zhou, my girl really didn’t mean it. She was just trying to help me. She knows I don’t want to marry that old man, so she had no choice…”
Mu Yurou spoke urgently, while Zhou Jun looked at her coldly.
"Mu Yurou, do you really like to pretend to be weak and pitiful?"
"I..." Mu Yurou was almost crying. If she had known this would happen, she should have taken Xueya and hidden away after being released, even if it was just for five or six days.
She believed that after five or six days, Zhou Jun would definitely not be so angry anymore, and it would be easier to explain then.
At least Zhou Jun wouldn't be that angry.
Mu Yurou suddenly felt a chill run through her body; she had a feeling that Zhou Jun's words were not quite right.
"Zhou Jun, I..."
"Hehe, you spent a lot of money to buy that medicine yesterday, didn't you?"
Mu Yurou's expression changed: "Young Master Zhou, have you misunderstood something? I didn't buy it, it wasn't me who bought it..."
"Xiaoqing, tell me the truth! Where did you buy those medicines from!"
Xiaoqing was so frightened that her hands and feet went weak, and her lips trembled so much that she couldn't say a word.
"Xiaoqing, hurry up and tell me!"
"This servant..."
Seeing the cold expression on his face and the angry look on the servant's face, Xiaoqing shrank back in fear. She was already starting to regret it and had a feeling that this matter wouldn't end so easily.
"Hmph! Mu Yurou, do you think everyone is as stupid as you? This kind of medicine costs tens of taels of silver per packet. It seems your maid is treated very well. She's even willing to spend so much money for her master!"
Mu Yurou's expression changed. She had only thought about making Xiaoqing take the blame, but she forgot that this medicine was not cheap.
"I……"
"Don't worry, Miss Mu, I still have some money. Since you like this medicine so much, I'll let you eat your fill today!"
A cruel smile appeared on Zhou Jun's lips. His indifference to everything did not mean he had a good temper.
This Mu Yurou has seriously crossed his bottom line.
"Young Master Zhou, what do you mean?"
However, as soon as Mu Yurou finished speaking, the servant behind Zhou Jun stepped forward and grabbed Mu Yurou's chin. No one knew how he used his strength, but Mu Yurou had no choice but to open her mouth.
Before she could even react, a whole packet of medicine had been thrown into her mouth.
Mu Yurou looked flustered and tried to spit out what was in her mouth. Just then, Zhou Jun walked over with a bowl of water and poured it into her mouth.
Only after confirming that all the medicine had been swallowed did the two release her, and the servant grabbed Xiaoqing.
"No, please don't!"
Only when she was restrained did Xiaoqing finally come to her senses and scream in terror, "No, it's not me, it's not me! I'm just a piece of braised food! I don't know anything!"
"It was all my young lady's idea. You all know how little silver I earn a month; I simply can't afford this medicine!"
"Please, I beg you, this has nothing to do with me, I'm truly innocent!"
Xiaoqing struggled fiercely; she had noticed how potent the drug was yesterday.
Moreover, she was with the young lady when she bought it, and she heard the person selling the medicine say that there was only one way to detoxify this medicine, which was to have intercourse with a member of the opposite sex.
What's even more terrifying is that this drug has completely different effects on men and women.
When used on women, it is three times more effective than on men.
That's three times the dosage for the same medicine.
Thinking about how terrifying Zhou Jun looked yesterday, Xiao Qing trembled even more violently.
"I'm engaged, and I'm going home to get married soon. Please, please let me go! I really didn't mean to!"
"I'm just a slave, sob sob sob..."
While Xiaoqing was struggling, a packet of medicine was forced into her mouth.
It was the familiar scene of being fed water again. Xiaoqing wanted to refuse to swallow, but she didn't know how the servant managed it, and she had no choice but to swallow the water.
Once he made sure the two of them were fed, Zhou Jun smiled cruelly: "Good luck to you two!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
