Chapter 104: Emotion
Chang Xixi curled up a bloodthirsty smile. If you fight with her, you will die without knowing how.
Zhou Zhiwei was a blood relative of the Zhou family, so naturally they wouldn't kill her, but they wouldn't let her off easily either! For the sake of the eldest lady and Mr. Zhou, Chang Xixi gritted her teeth.
She felt the carriage sway, and came out of the space. The burning sensation surged over her, spreading to every part of her body, becoming uncontrollable.
Outside the street, several men in black rushed out quickly and stopped the speeding carriage. Because Li Da pulled the reins, the carriage was forced to stop while speeding, causing it to jolt and wake up Chang Xixi who had entered the space.
Li Da got off the carriage, drew the big knife on his back, and asked Renwen to guard the carriage. Qingnan, who was left behind, also jumped down from the roof and happened to stand behind the group of men in black.
Xiaohong was coaxed into the carriage by Renwen, and Chang Xixi happened to see Qingnan getting off the roof. It turned out that Qingnan also knew martial arts.
She ordered, "Li Da, make this a quick decision. I'm waiting to go back and see your master."
Qingnan was stunned and looked grim. He had accidentally exposed himself in his excitement just now. If the Madam investigated the matter, he would not be able to hide it. How would the young master deal with it?
He sighed, drew the soft sword from his waist, and rushed towards the villain!
The same thing happened to Li Da. Before the two of them could even warm up, those big men were knocked to the ground and were dying. They were no match for Li Da and the others, and they even dared to stop them.
Qingnan grabbed one of them by the neck and said, "Who asked you to come? If you can't tell me, you will die! If you tell me, I can spare your life."
These people looked at each other, and finally felt that life was more important... They gritted their teeth and handed the person over.
"It was Miss Zhou from the Zhou Mansion. She gave us money and asked us to wait here at this hour. She stopped every fancy carriage she saw. This is the second one we stopped."
"oh?"
"Why did you stop the carriage?" Chang Xixi came out from the carriage weakly, looking a little sick.
Qingnan and Li Da knew as soon as they heard that the lady was showing signs of poisoning!
Oh no, they might have fallen into a trap. They stopped the carriage to delay the onset of the poison. By the time they return to the Zhou Mansion, the lady must have been severely poisoned and beyond recovery.
What a cruel heart.
Li Da didn't delay any longer. He put away his sword, sat down in the carriage, grabbed the reins from Ren Wen's hand, and headed straight for Zhou's residence. Qing Nan stayed behind to clean up the mess.
Chang Xixi only felt her body getting hotter and hotter. She had no choice but to ask Xiaohong to turn her back, and she entered the space herself, took off her coat, and went directly into a green lake in the space.
This clear pool of water was formed after coming to Ruzhou. It is now only two meters wide, but as high as a person. It is extremely cold, which is just enough to solve the urgent problem.
She didn't intend to detoxify, but... thought about the pretty boy she had kept at home for so long, and there was no need to wait any longer.
The two of them are not actually husband and wife, no matter how good their relationship is, they are not husband and wife.
It would be better to take this opportunity to make it a done deal. Since she would have money, they wouldn't have to worry about money anymore. The timing was perfect. It could also be considered as a way to secure her position as the wife!
If Gu Rongyu really passed the imperial examination, she would be the legitimate wife of a successful candidate, and no one would take away her benefits.
Zhou Zhiwei did this simply because he was attracted by Gu Rongyu's face.
What she likes, others like too.
The cold water slowly slid over her skin from her feet. She felt a biting chill, and her mind became clear. Then her whole body was refreshed and she felt refreshed instantly.
After just a cup of tea, she put on her clothes and came out of the space. The cold spring water could only temporarily suppress the poison in her body.
There must be another big drama waiting for him in the Zhou Mansion.
As soon as he came out, Li Da stopped the carriage, lifted the curtain, and whispered, "Madam, we have arrived at the Zhou Mansion. Are you okay? What kind of poison did you take? Is there an antidote?"
Xiao Hong glared at Li Da and said, "As long as the uncle is here, everything will be fine."
Li Da understood in his heart that it must be the kind of thing used for flirting in brothels. The person who poisoned it really had a vicious heart.
Renwen and Qingnan, who had caught up, were relieved when they heard it was this kind of poison, but they were also worried about the young master. The two of them hadn't consummated their marriage yet, and they were afraid that it might happen tonight...
Gu Rongyu learned from Liang Ming that Chang Xixi had been drugged, and he was worried. It was just nightfall and it was a bit chilly in early autumn, so he stood in front of Zhou's house waiting without wearing any thick clothes.
Zhou Zhiwei dragged the eldest lady to the front hall to drink tea, and told her about what happened to Chang Xixi at Zhang's house today. This made the eldest lady want to see her as well, no matter whether it was good or bad, just to show her concern.
Mr. Zhou just came back from a business trip in another province today, and he wanted to see Chang Xixi. He had heard a little about her deeds in Ruzhou City and was very pleased.
The whole family is waiting for Chang Xixi to return.
One was looking forward to watching the show, one was genuinely worried, and the other two were showing the care and concern of elders for their juniors. All of them gathered together, waiting for Chang Xixi to get off the carriage and meet the four people at the door.
She curled her lips, Zhou Zhiwei really has a good plan!
If she didn't have a secret space, she would be despised by everyone if she returned to Panzhi City, not to mention Ruzhou City.
She walked over slowly and looked at Gu Rongyu first. The worry in her eyes was real. Gu Rongyu knew that she was poisoned and gave her a relieved expression.
He then greeted the eldest lady and Master Zhou, "Madam, it's getting late, what are you waiting for me here for? You're really shortening my life."
Zhou Zhiwei looked left and right, and felt something was wrong. How come she didn't show any signs of being abused?
She could still speak so calmly. She saw with her own eyes that Chang Xixi drank the cup of tea that she handed over... Why was she okay?
The more Mr. Zhou looked at Chang Xixi, the more he liked her. "Let's go inside! I heard that you met some people in Ruzhou City. Does the young lady of the Zhang family like you very much?"
“There is such a thing.”
Chang Xixi wasn't modest. She told the story the way it was. Smiling, she followed the two elders into the Zhou residence. Gu Rongyu walked behind her and grabbed her hand.
"Madam, your body?"
Chang Xixi whispered in his ear, "Let's talk about it when we get back, okay? Let's deal with these two first." After saying that, she blew a breath of hot air into Gu Rongyu's ear.
The ambiguity is very obvious.
Gu Rongyu's mind was confused and blank, shrouded in the night. His cheeks flushed slightly, but it was a flash and no one saw it. But this breath of heat made him feel aroused.
His dark eyes darkened, and he was anxious when he saw Chang Xixi's back.
