Upon hearing this, Miss Xue grabbed Duan Qingxi's clothes tightly, as if she was afraid that she would really abandon her and leave.
At this point, Duan Qingxi had no choice but to tell the truth.
She twirled her fingers awkwardly, not daring to look directly at Duan Sijin. She said with a look of admitting her mistake, "Um... well... actually... I gave this Miss Xue to Big Brother..."
Upon hearing this, Duan Sijin froze and looked at Duan Qingxi in disbelief, as if he had not expected that she would be such a sister!
Duan Hong was also stunned, frowning, not knowing what expression to make on his old face.
"Xi'er, what are you talking about?!"
Duan Qingxi mustered up his courage and said, "It's true, Father! I actually brought this Miss Xue back to the mansion. I...I saw that my eldest brother was already old and had no woman to take care of him. I was worried that our Duan family would die out. Plus, Miss Xue is so beautiful that she's more than enough for my eldest brother, so I came up with this desperate plan..."
Duan Hong no longer wanted to talk. Although he felt that Duan Qingxi's method was not appropriate, he had to admit that it was quite to his liking.
He has wanted to do this for a long time!
It’s just… I just don’t have the courage.
Duan Sijin's expression was unpredictable. After a long while, he finally uttered, "Nonsense!"
"Brother, I know I was wrong! But... I'm doing this for your own good, for the good of our Duan family! Besides, if you don't like the girl, then forget it, but why did you pick up a knife and attack her?! If you do this... you won't be able to get married!"
Duan Sijin stopped talking and glanced at the delicate and lovely beauty lying on the ground, his heart calm.
But this person was his sister's after all, so he couldn't really chop him down, so he said, "Don't do it again! Otherwise, I'll beat you up too!"
Duan Qingxi pursed his lips, feeling a little disappointed.
Maybe she was too anxious and forgot that Duan Sijin and Miss Xue in this life did not know each other before, and they had no memory of the modern time.
To them, the other party was just a stranger, and it was indeed a bit unreasonable for her to force them together.
But she always believed that Duan Sijin would fall in love with Miss Xue, it was just a matter of time.
She wanted to take Miss Xue away, but after helping her up, she held Duan Qingxi's hand again and insisted, "Miss, I didn't drug the young master. Please understand!"
At this time, being able to escape alive was already a blessing, but Miss Xue still insisted on finding out the truth.
In Duan Qingxi's opinion, she was too wronged, but in the eyes of others, she was just ungrateful.
After all, she was the only one in the room. If she didn't drug him, who else could have done it?
Duan Qingxi patted her little hand soothingly, then turned around and searched Duan Sijin's room for a long time.
Finally, his eyes fixed on the incense burner.
The incense in the incense burner smelled good, but Duan Qingxi picked up the remaining ashes and smelled them, and instantly understood.
She said, "There's something wrong with this incense, but... it's not a big deal. A normal person wouldn't be in any trouble if they smelled it. They might just feel unbearably anxious if they stayed in the room for too long. But if someone who's drunk smelled it, it would be like taking an aphrodisiac, and they might do something impulsive."
"I've been watching this incense burner for two or three hours now. At that time, Miss Snow was still with me. So, who made this incense? Brother is so smart, you should be able to find out for yourself, right?"
Duan Sijin didn't say anything, but frowned, obviously extremely disgusted with the person who burned incense!
Seeing that nothing was wrong, Duan Qingxi took Miss Xue back to his own yard.
There was a bloodstain on her neck, which looked extremely unsightly. Duan Qingxi felt so distressed that he applied medicine to her personally.
