Chapter 802: My cousin is reborn and wants to snatch my marriage (11)
After the people left, Gu Shichu immediately stopped acting and sat up.
She is the only one in the room at the moment, and it is obvious that the other protagonist has not yet appeared. Gu Shichu knows exactly who Gu Shiyao wants to force upon her, isn't it Mingxun, the prince of the Marquis's Mansion?
As long as she and Mingxun were discovered fooling around here, Gu Shiyao could cancel the engagement naturally and stand on the moral high ground to accuse her and Mingxun, making her an innocent and pitiful victim. As for what tragic fate she would suffer for having an "unmarried affair" with Mingxun, she didn't care at all.
Gu Shichu waited for a while and heard some noise outside the door. She immediately lay down again and pretended to be drugged.
Gu Shichu closed his eyes and heard the sound of the door opening, followed by heavy footsteps and unsmooth breathing. Soon, the man seemed to be walking towards the bed.
Gu Shichu didn't have to wait long before she felt a very heavy object hit her bed. She opened her eyes and saw that it was Ming Xun, the prince of Qi Yanghou Mansion.
But he was obviously not in his right mind at the moment, and he smelled strongly of alcohol. His face was red and his sword-like eyebrows were tightly furrowed.
Gu Shichu did not get up immediately, but waited for a while. After he found that the footsteps of the person who was following outside the door had gone away, he got up and took Mingxun's pulse.
He was so pitiful. Not only was he drunk, but he was also drugged by some unknown drug. Gu Shichu's three fingers that were holding his pulse could feel his skin getting hotter and hotter. It was obvious that the drug was taking effect.
Gu Shichu fiercely pushed away the man who was pulling at him, found a pill from his own space and stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation. It was the bitterest antidote, with good efficacy and quick results, but the taste made his scalp numb. Gu Shichu thought it was too bitter and didn't want it, so he treated it as a failed product in the medicine refining process and threw it into the corner. He didn't expect that Ming Xun would use it now.
Even though Mingxun was half conscious, he was so bitter about the pill that he kept picking his throat. He didn't even care about being a hooligan. However, the pill melted in his mouth and he couldn't pick it out by picking his throat.
As expected, it was a universal antidote. Ming Xun regained consciousness soon. After seeing clearly where he was and the person in front of him, he asked vigilantly: "Where is this? Who are you? What do you want to do?"
Gu Shichu rolled his eyes and said, "It's a remote courtyard in your house. Your fiancée wants to break off the engagement but doesn't want to be blamed, so she plotted against me and you to have an affair without a matchmaker. I guess soon there will be a bunch of people who will come and 'catch us in bed'. By then, she will be the victim with a clear conscience, and you and I will be condemned by thousands of people."
Ming Xun's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his usual nonchalant and playful expression disappeared. He stared at Gu Shichu sharply: "Are all your words true? If you dare to lie to me, you know what the consequences will be."
"If you don't believe it, forget it, but I don't want to get involved in the fight between you two engaged couples. Since you're awake, I'll leave first." Gu Shichu waved his hand and said.
Just as she jumped off the bed and was about to leave, she suddenly turned around and asked, "Gu Shiyao framed me, I must take revenge, I plan to give him a taste of his own medicine, you won't stop me, right?"
Ming Xun sneered and said, "Stop? If what you said is true, I don't mind cooperating with you. If you dare to plot against me, you must be aware of being retaliated against."
Gu Shichu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "That's great. I can bring Gu Shiyao here quietly, but I can't find a suitable male lead for the time being. This is your territory, and you can find the male lead. How about it?"
"Okay." Ming Xun agreed immediately. In fact, he now believed what Gu Shichu said.
"Then let's get back to our work. Time is running out, so we have to hurry." Gu Shichu urged.
Gu Shichu did not appear directly in his own identity, but found a deserted place and disguised himself as Ma Ma, a capable woman beside Gu Shiyao's mother Zhou.
As Zhou's confidante, Ma Ma often used her power to find fault with the original owner and do small tricks. For example, she made the original owner stand in the snow for an hour or two when paying respects in winter, and found excuses to make the original owner kneel in front of the Buddha statue to pray for the elders on special days, making her knees bruised and her throat hoarse... These tricks often made the original owner feel helpless, so Gu Shichu felt very justified in using her identity to plot against Gu Shiyao.
Gu Shichu soon found Gu Shiyao who was talking to other young ladies in a pavilion. She said to Gu Shiyao in a hurry, "Miss, something bad has happened. The eldest lady suddenly had a headache and asked you to go over and take a look."
"Why did mother suddenly have a headache? Is it serious? Has she seen a doctor?" Gu Shiyao had deep feelings for her mother, so she became anxious when she heard this. She didn't care about getting in touch with the other girls and apologized quickly, "Sisters and sisters, I have to go see my mother. I can't keep you company now..."
"You should go quickly..." The other ladies understood and did not blame her for leaving suddenly.
Gu Shiyao hurriedly followed Gu Shichu, who was disguised as Ma Ma, and asked her anxiously as she walked, "Ma Ma, why does my mother have a headache? What did she eat and drink in this mansion?"
Gu Shichu said in a disguised voice: "I don't know, the Madam suddenly had a headache, without any signs..."
When the two of them walked to a remote and deserted place, Gu Shichu instantly moved behind Gu Shiyao, and then hit her on the back of the head with lightning speed, knocking her unconscious.
She glanced around vigilantly and didn't see anyone approaching, so she quickly lifted Gu Shiyao onto her shoulder and brought her to the room where she had been brought before.
The aphrodisiac incense was still burning. After Gu Shichu threw Gu Shiyao on the bed, he deliberately put the incense in front of Gu Shiyao's nose and let her enjoy it. Since she prepared it, she might as well enjoy it herself.
Gu Shiyao's face soon turned red, and two quarters of an hour later, Ming Xun also came back with the male protagonist.
He actually carried it in by himself. Gu Shichu looked at him with a new respect. Didn't they say he was a playboy who was obsessed with pleasure? How could he have the physical strength to carry a grown man?
With a "bang", he couldn't wait to throw the man on his shoulder onto the bed.
Gu Shichu took a look at the unconscious man and found that he looked quite handsome and like a decent person, so he said to Mingxun: "Although we are doing this to repay an injury with an injury, Gu Shiyao deserves it, but if this man is an innocent ordinary person, then we are harming him by involving him in this matter."
