Qingzhu was so frightened that she couldn't think straight, so she naturally said whatever Han Lingxi told her to say.
"It wasn't my idea to do it. Hongjuan asked me to poison the young master's pastries. It was all their doing. It has nothing to do with me."
Qingzhu spoke in a daze, even somewhat incoherently.
"I will never dare to do it again, I will never dare to covet money again. Go find them, it has nothing to do with me."
Han Lingxi still managed to glean some information from her words. Qingzhu had agreed to poison Luo Shaoxuan's pastries for money, but Han Lingxi felt something was off. Pastries? Could it be the pastries she had in the study that day?
Was it two weeks ago?
Han Lingxi asked with a blank expression, and Qingzhu hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Han Lingxi felt like she was about to vomit blood and die from blood loss. What kind of intelligence did Madam Luo and her group have? The pastries were made half a month ago, and Luo Shaoxuan was poisoned and fell into a coma only in the last few days. Where did they get the confidence to think that Luo Shaoxuan was poisoned by them?
Now that she knew what she wanted to know, Han Lingxi left Qingzhu's room and casually made her faint.
Qingzhu was so frightened this time that she will probably have mental problems in the future. Going crazy would be a normal phenomenon. Han Lingxi would naturally not be kind enough to save her. After all, it is a capital offense for her to plot against her master for money. Although she did not succeed, killing the little yellow cat is still unforgivable.
Han Lingxi returned to Luo Shaoxuan's courtyard with the porridge. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard a commotion. When she got closer, she found out that Zhang Lingwan wanted to go in to visit Luo Shaoxuan, but was stopped by the servant.
Before leaving, Han Lingxi woke up the servant to prevent any accidents from happening while she was away. The servant just rubbed his eyes and didn't notice anything unusual, thinking that he was just sleeping too soundly.
The servant is now blocking Zhang Lingwan from entering, which must be at Luo Shaoxuan's behest. After all, in his previous life, the servant wouldn't have dared to stop Zhang Lingwan, his cousin.
Han Lingxi ignored them and went straight through the wall into the house. The people outside shouldn't be able to get in for a while. She appeared in front of Luo Shaoxuan and handed him the porridge. Because of the delay, the porridge had gone cold, so Han Lingxi specially used magic to heat it up.
Han Lingxi felt that she was taking the use of magic less and less seriously now. Since she was going to get beaten up anyway, she figured she might as well keep doing what she was good for her.
"Ding! Affection +5, Total Affection 80."
"You're back."
Luo Shaoxuan showed no panic at the sudden appearance of a person in front of him—well, more like the sudden appearance of a ghost. He greeted Han Lingxi with a light smile, as if it were a very ordinary thing.
At this moment, Luo Shaoxuan's face was still pale, but his gentle smile was stunning.
Han Lingxi stared at him blankly for a moment before speaking.
"Eat quickly. You won't be able to serve as a servant for long. In a little while, pretend you're still unconscious to avoid the person who poisoned you finding out and then trying to harm you again."
"good."
Luo Shaoxuan nodded in agreement, and then obediently ate the porridge in his hand. His elegant manners made Han Lingxi feel that he was eating the most delicious food in the world, which made Han Lingxi hungry.
Luo Shaoxuan put down his bowl, indicating that he was finished eating. Han Lingxi then used magic to make the bowl disappear and concealed herself.
Luo Shaoxuan lay on the bed with his eyes closed, as if he were still unconscious.
A moment later, Zhang Lingwan disregarded her image, had the servant restrained, and burst through the door.
