After Ye Shu fell asleep, Ruxing and Ruyue came to the door to guard it. They thought they had nothing to do, but Luo Ming came, which confused them.
They had almost done what Young Master Xiao had instructed. They just had to wait until nightfall, go home and report to the dean, and bring the person back home, and pretend that nothing had happened.
But what does the sudden appearance of Young Master Luo mean?
When Luo Ming saw the two of them, he was a little confused. Why were they here?
He panted and thought about it carefully. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Could it be that there was something fishy going on between Ye Shu and Xiao Hechuan?
He felt a little angry. Although he was a son-in-law, they would still be husband and wife in the future. He would not agree to be cuckolded before they even got married.
So, regardless of Ruxing and Ruyue's obstruction, he pushed the door open and walked into the house.
As soon as he came in, he looked around for someone, but he saw Ye Shu lying on the bed, sleeping soundly. There was a wheelchair beside the bed, but Xiao Hechuan was nowhere to be seen.
He didn't believe it and went to look in the closet and under the bed, but still couldn't find it.
The two maids, Ruxing and Ruyue, followed in. When they saw Luo Ming looking for someone everywhere, they looked at each other, because they were becoming more and more confused about the current developments.
"Mr. Luo, what are you looking for?"
Luo Ming didn't find anyone. He stared at Ye Shu who was sleeping soundly on the bed. He was puzzled.
He didn't pay any attention to Ruxing and the others. He ran over, sweating and panting. When he saw the tea on the table, he picked up a cup of tea and drank it all without saying a word.
The two maids tried to stop him but failed.
"Mr. Luo, you can't drink this tea!"
Before he could finish his words, the tea had already flowed down his throat into his stomach.
This time it was bad, and neither of them knew what to do.
Luo Ming also realized it later. He looked at the teacup in his hand, then at Fang Ruxing and Ruyue who looked horrified. He frowned and asked:
“Is there something wrong with this tea?”
There was indeed a problem, and it was a serious one. It was the kind that had an immediate effect. As soon as he drank the medicine, the effect started to take effect, and he just felt dizzy.
Before he fainted, he felt as if he had been tricked by someone.
The cup fell to the ground with a plop and rolled a few times before breaking into pieces. He covered his head and fell limply to the ground, soon losing consciousness.
Ruxing covered her mouth and asked Ruyue what to do:
"What should we do? Master Xiao didn't tell us that Master Luo would come."
Ruxing is the older sister, but sometimes she seems not as patient as Ruyue.
Ruyue thought about it and decided that it would be inappropriate to go look for Master Xiao at this hour, so she might as well just go with the flow.
"Go tell the master, just do as Young Master Xiao told us. As for Young Master Luo, it was an accident. Let's see how the master handles it!"
Xiao Hechuan had already told them long ago to report to Ye Congwen at night and tell him the truth about Ye Shu's plan.
As Xiao Hechuan's accomplices, if they didn't want to be implicated, they had to coax Ye Shu into drinking the drug, and then pretend that they didn't want the young lady to go astray.
In this way, their starting point is to help Ye Shu to stop herself from going too far. Ye Congwen is a reasonable person, so he will not make things difficult for them and will protect them in front of Ye Shu.
At this point, this is the only way to go.
When Ye Congwen received the news, he almost vomited blood. He felt like he couldn't hold it in anymore.
This rebellious girl almost brought him into great disaster. If she had offended Xiao Hechuan, it would have caused a huge uproar in the city and people would have hated him and his daughter so much that they would not know.
By then, my reputation will be damaged. How can I gain a foothold as the dean of Baiyun Academy in the future?
He followed Ruxing and Ruyue to the small house. Coincidentally, this house was where Ye Shu kept a lover in her previous life.
Luo Ming was still lying on the ground, unconscious, and they didn't dare to touch him. After Ye Congwen came, he looked at this ridiculous scene and couldn't help but hold his forehead.
He might as well take advantage of the situation. He also realized that Luo Ming was not very willing to marry Shu'er, but he had to do it out of necessity. And Shu'er was going to marry Luo Ming anyway in the future. Since she wanted to cause trouble, let her spend a night with Luo Ming legitimately.
When she wakes up tomorrow, it will be difficult for her to resist. This matter will be a natural outcome.
He asked someone to help Luo Ming up from the ground, took off his coat, let him and Ye Shu lie down together, and then asked someone to close the door.
He will stay here tonight, and tomorrow morning he will keep the matter secret so that no news can get out. He has already discussed with the two elders of the Luo family and the wedding date is set for six days later, which is an auspicious day, and they will hold a grand banquet then.
…
Xiao Hechuan had arrived home safely, and he leisurely fetched water to take a hot bath.
Now that Zhou has become increasingly inconvenient to move around, the task of cooking in the evening falls on Lanlan.
As soon as Xiao Hechuan came back, he took a shower and then helped Lanlan pick vegetables, light the fire, and do some handy work. Inevitably, she saw the wound at the corner of his mouth.
"Fourth brother, what's wrong with the wound at the corner of your mouth?" Lan Lan asked worriedly.
He had already thought of the wording, so he just told the truth:
"Nothing. I had a conflict with a classmate and there was a small misunderstanding. We have already made it clear and he got punched, so we are even."
Xiao Lanlan really didn't expect that Fourth Brother, with his temper, would get into conflict with others? That shouldn't happen, right?
"What's the conflict about?"
"It's nothing, just a trivial matter. That person has a problem with his brain and is talking nonsense. Anyway, don't ask me. I can handle it myself."
He didn't want to say more, and Lanlan was smart, so she didn't ask any more questions.
When night fell, he got up and went out to West Street to pick up Sui Sui and the others to take home. Jiang Sui noticed the wound on the corner of his mouth, which had turned a little purple.
Jiang Sui felt very distressed, frowned, and reached out to touch him gently. Xiao Hechuan even let out a hypocritical hiss, which made Jiang Sui's heart tremble:
"Who hit me?"
Jiang Sui's tone was a little angry, and she looked like she would hit back if she knew who hit her.
Xiao Hechuan found it funny, and he comforted her:
"I'll tell you in detail tonight. Please help me fool my parents first."
The two of them had a tacit understanding, and Jiang Sui understood what he meant almost immediately. The ins and outs of this matter must be complicated.
So she nodded and agreed.
Sure enough, when Xiao's mother and the others saw it, they asked a lot of questions, and he just used the same excuse he gave to Lanlan to evade them.
Xiao's mother also felt that the child was so old now, and Baiyun Academy was full of students of similar age to him, all of them were full of vigor and had all kinds of temperaments. In short, she didn't believe that her son would take the initiative to cause trouble, and she also believed that her son could solve it himself.
