Perhaps it was because Lin Jiangnian had provoked her tonight that Liu Su was extremely uncalm at the moment.
She really doesn't like the feeling of being led by the nose!
The guy in front of her still had a harmless smile on his face, but in her eyes, he was extremely hateful!
Since tonight, she has been plotting against her in various ways.
Even now...
The same is true.
Liu Su was very uncomfortable.
She has always prided herself on having everything under control.
Whether it was forcing Lin Jiangnian to pretend to be the Prince of Lin in the temple, controlling him, appearing in his room every night, to gradually exposing her true purpose.
From the beginning to the end, everything was under her control and everything was going according to her plan.
And she has always been calm.
Even if there is hesitation occasionally, it will eventually be covered and replaced by reason.
But tonight, Lin Jiangnian deceived her one after another, which irritated her and made her feel more and more uneasy.
The thought that this guy in front of her might break free from her control became stronger and stronger!
She realized something was wrong and should calm down now.
But for some reason, when she looked up and saw Lin Jiangnian's indifferent eyes, which seemed to contain a hint of mocking and playful provocation, the anger in her heart surged up again.
"drink?"
Lin Jiangnian looked at her with some surprise; "You really dare to drink?"
The woman in red said nothing, staring at him coldly.
"Don't force yourself. What if I really drug you?"
Lin Jiangnian's eyes became more relaxed, and he seemed a little proud.
He likes the feeling now...
The strong and intelligent woman in front of him was now confused by his tricks.
This feeling is very mysterious.
Lin Jiangnian poured another bowl of wine from the jar, and the rich aroma of wine filled the room. He picked up the bowl and savored it carefully.
"Ah, what a fragrant wine!"
Lin Jiangnian had an intoxicated look on his face. He lifted the wine bowl to his lips and was about to drink it when he raised his eyes and glanced at the woman in red opposite him.
Seeing that she was staring at him intently, there was a hint of murderous intent in her cold and beautiful eyes.
"Drink?"
Seeing this, Lin Jiangnian handed the wine he had just brought to her mouth back to her.
"Didn't you say you wanted to drink?"
The woman in red remained silent.
He stared at the wine bowl that Lin Jiangnian pushed in front of him, then looked at Lin Jiangnian's expression, took a deep breath, his mind still a little confused.
Before he could say anything, he heard Lin Jiangnian waving his hands, with a slightly nonchalant attitude: "Forget it, if you don't want to drink, forget it, don't force it..."
This leisurely and playful tone instantly made the originally calm woman in red lose her composure.
The originally exquisite and charming face now had a bit of anger and coldness. She glared at Lin Jiangnian fiercely, picked up the wine bowl on the table, put it to her nose and sniffed it gently, but she did not notice anything unusual.
No drugs were given at all?
He's been fooling himself the whole time?!
Thinking of this, the woman in red became even more angry.
But then, the aroma of wine in the bowl attracted her attention. When she brought the bowl to her mouth, she suddenly realized something and stopped.
This bowl... has he used it?
Noticing this, the woman in red immediately put down the wine bowl in her hand, picked up a new bowl from the side with an expressionless face, and poured wine again.
Lin Jiangnian just watched her movements quietly. She poured another bowl of wine, looked at Lin Jiangnian with a hint of provocation in her eyes, then brought the bowl to her lips and took a sip.
As the slightly stinging heat of the alcohol spread down her throat and spread throughout her body, Liu Su felt a tremor all over her body. Like a gentle rain, the stimulation made her feel comfortable all over.
A strong sense of satisfaction surged into my heart, as if my heart, which had been empty for a long time, was suddenly filled.
Very satisfied!
Liu Su's eyes suddenly lit up, and her face, which was originally flushed with anger, now had a hint of redness.
Extraordinarily beautiful.
…
Lin Jiangnian watched with great interest as the woman in red drank the wine in the bowl. She drank it all in one gulp and then poured down another bowl. After drinking three bowls in one breath, she put down the bowl with satisfaction and licked her bright red lips.
That fair and delicate face seemed to have a hint of drunken redness.
"Satisfied?"
Lin Jiangnian looked at her and chuckled.
The woman in red glanced at him, her eyes still filled with provocation, but she said nothing.
"Sure enough, you are still too young!"
Lin Jiangnian shook his head slightly, and the smile in his eyes became more and more obvious.
The woman in red was startled: "What do you mean?"
"What do you say?"
Lin Jiangnian gradually narrowed his eyes and looked at her playfully.
The woman in red instinctively had a bad feeling in her heart... There was something wrong with this guy's eyes.
What does he want to do now?
Before she could figure out what was going on, she suddenly felt dizzy.
This, this is...
She suddenly looked up and stared at Lin Jiangnian, then suddenly realized: "You, you drugged me?!"
The strong feeling of dizziness was clearly a sign of being drugged.
"yes!"
Lin Jiangnian looked at her, smiled and nodded calmly: "I did drug her... didn't I tell you a long time ago?"
The red-dressed woman's expression suddenly changed. Was she drugged?
mean!
The strong feeling of dizziness was not fake, he was really drugged.
Wine, is there really a problem with wine?!
"You, how are you okay?"
She was angry, but she soon thought of something... Lin Jiangnian had obviously been drinking too, so why was he fine?
"Because I didn't put it in the wine."
Lin Jiangnian shook her head slightly. She was so vigilant that putting drugs in the wine would definitely be discovered.
So……
The woman in red seemed to realize something and looked down at the bowl on the table: "The medicine is on the bowl?"
"clever!"
Lin Jiangnian nodded.
"mean!"
The woman in red finally realized... she was tricked tonight.
This guy's series of schemes had already completely understood her thoughts and psychology, and his calculations were clear... This gave her a sudden shock.
He has such deep thoughts!
"How can this be called despicable? This is called taking the bait!"
Lin Jiangnian looked at the dizzy, dazed and shaking woman in red and sighed, "You don't trust me enough... If you had believed from the beginning that I didn't drug you, wouldn't everything have been fine?"
"But you don't believe me..."
"Coincidentally, I also know that you don't believe me, so I'll take advantage of you..."
Lin Jiangnian said meaningfully: "Your loss is not unfair!"
If the woman in red hadn't suspected Lin Jiangnian of drugging the wine from the beginning, she wouldn't have been so vigilant. There was nothing wrong with the wine and the bowl at first, but she simply didn't believe it...
Lin Jiangnian took advantage of her vigilance and used the same trick against her!
Just trick her into falling into the trap!
It can't be stopped!
"You're looking for death!"
The woman in red realized that she had been fooled again and was extremely ashamed and angry. She immediately struggled to stand up in anger.
But the next second, her body trembled.
"thump!"
He lost his balance and fell back onto the table, where he collapsed without a sound!
Fascinated?
Looking at the woman in red lying motionless on the table, Lin Jiangnian muttered to himself.
"This medicine is...quite potent?"
This drug was found by Lin Jiangnian in Ruyi Tower, where there are countless rare treasures, including some powerful poisons, drugs and aphrodisiacs.
Maybe it is not as powerful as the poison, but it is also colorless, odorless and silent.
No matter how powerful the master is, he will be knocked down if he is not prepared!
Looking at the motionless woman in red sitting at the table, it was obvious that the drug had taken effect.
However, Lin Jiangnian was still very cautious. This woman was very smart, so he had to prevent her from pretending to be unconscious and waiting for Lin Jiangnian to let down his guard before suddenly attacking him.
Even though she had stopped moving, Lin Jiangnian still did not act rashly. He sat quietly for a while. When the time was almost up, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she still had no reaction.
"You didn't expect that you would end up in my hands?"
Lin Jiangnian looked at her, feeling a mix of emotions in his heart. Ever since he knew that this woman in front of him loved drinking, he had this plan in mind.
Like drinking?
That, then, is her weakness.
Lin Jiangnian took advantage of this weakness by retreating to advance, and she was easily hooked.
"Now, it's my turn for revenge!"
Lin Jiangnian stood up and slowly approached the woman in red.
She lay silently at the table, her slightly messy hair covering half of her delicate and pretty face, which was flushed and beautiful.
Lin Jiangnian stared at her face, thinking about his next plan.
Now that she is finally in my hands, what should I do with her?
Intimidation?
Bribery?
Since entering the Prince Lin's Mansion, Lin Jiangnian has been under her threat and control.
Now, she is in Lin Jiangnian's hands.
This is Lin Jiangnian's bargaining chip and a chance to break free from her control!
Should he poison her, keep a check on her, and force her to detoxify him?
Or... strip her naked and tarnish her innocence, let her taste the power of the big stick, and then take vengeance...
Poison again?
Lin Jiangnian's eyes gradually became sharp as he stared at the woman in red in front of him.
You know what...it's quite beautiful and attractive!
Doesn’t seem like a big loss?
Lin Jiangnian's breathing quickened as he thought of something. He stared at her motionless body, his eyes becoming increasingly perplexed.
I've been bullied by her for a while now, and now is the perfect opportunity for revenge! Even though the way I'm going to retaliate is a bit shameful... so what?
Treat this woman who has always threatened his life as an enemy, and she should be struck hard...
out!
Evil thoughts emerged and Lin Jiangnian was ready to act.
He approached her and slowly extended his hand, just as he was about to touch her...
A sharp and dangerous aura came!
Lin Jiangnian's pupils suddenly shrank, his whole body tensed up, and he subconsciously retreated quickly.
“Bang!”
A sharp, piercing sound filled the air.
A powerful aura rushed towards him, causing Lin Jiangnian to retreat four or five steps.
He raised his eyes with a look of astonishment on his face: "You, are you okay?!"
In his sight, the woman in red who was supposed to be lying on the table and unconscious had sat up again at some point, staring at Lin Jiangnian with a sneer.
"You really have bad intentions!"
Lin Jiangnian's heart suddenly sank... Didn't he drug her?
How can it be okay?
"How...are you okay?"
Lin Jiangnian felt his throat was a little hoarse. Could the medicine be fake?
"If something happens to me, won't I fall into your hands tonight?"
A sneer appeared on Liu Su's cold and murderous face.
I almost fell into his hands.
Liu Su felt a surge of fear in her heart. If he really succeeded, then it would be all over!
I didn't expect that he was so scheming!
Thinking about the way that guy looked at her just now, it was obvious that he wanted to...
Her eyes became increasingly angry and ashamed, and also increasingly cold.
Lin Jiangnian stared in astonishment at Liu Su, who appeared before him, completely intact and speechless. There was no trace of poison on her face anymore. It was clear that she was... fine?!
Failed!
Can this fail?
“I lost!”
After realizing that the drugging had failed, Lin Jiangnian simply gave up struggling. Without the drugging, he had no chance of winning against this woman.
"I really underestimated you!"
Seeing Lin Jiangnian give up his resistance, her heart relaxed slightly. Then the sneer on her face deepened, and she stared at Lin Jiangnian: "You are really scheming!"
"I'm still a little worse than you!"
Lin Jiangnian sighed, and couldn't help asking, "How on earth are you okay?"
"What do you think?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at the bowl on the table... He had clearly put the drug in it and saw her drink it with his own eyes.
Which link went wrong?
"The drug doesn't work on me!"
Liu Su stared at Lin Jiangnian, slowly stood up and walked towards Lin Jiangnian.
One step, two steps...
Realizing something was wrong, Lin Jiangnian immediately stepped back, "What do you want to do?"
The woman in red walked up to Lin Jiangnian step by step, staring at his face, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
At this moment, the cold air was pressing.
"You'd better not challenge my bottom line again and again!"
The air was filled with murderous intent.
Lin Jiangnian felt a chill in his heart as he felt the murderous aura coming from the other party.
"This is the last time, next time..."
The woman in red turned around, took a deep breath, and glanced at him coldly: "I will not be merciful again!"
Lin Jiangnian stood there, looking at the scene in a daze.
She didn't do anything?
Just dropping some threats, and that's it?
Don't kill him?
Not even doing anything?
I won’t show mercy...what does that mean?
…
Outside the door.
The woman in red walked out of the room and looked at the empty yard, which was deserted.
Her face was icy as she turned and left the yard, heading for a nearby alley. The moment she stepped into the alley, her aura instantly vanished, and she felt as if she had lost all her energy. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and she took two steps back, leaning against the cold wall, panting heavily, her face etched with shortness of breath.
His pale face looked particularly ugly.
“Almost…”
I almost fell into that guy's hands tonight!
Liu Su's eyes were filled with fear.
She never thought that she would be plotted against again and again by that guy tonight!
Fortunately, she had been practicing the Tai Gu method since she was young, and had long been immune to all poisons. Ordinary medicines had little effect on her. Otherwise, she might really be dead here tonight!
Given that guy's personality, how would he deal with me?
Thinking of a certain possibility, Liu Su gritted her teeth, her eyes slightly filled with shame and anger. At that moment, she felt some evil thoughts from that guy.
He actually has thoughts about himself?
Liu Su's eyes became more and more angry.
However, this drug was indeed very effective. Even though she had the Taigu Heart Technique to protect herself, she still almost fell into the trap.
At this moment, she was completely limp and couldn't muster any strength.
Fortunately, that guy didn't see it, otherwise he would probably make another move.
Thinking of this, Liu Su took a deep breath and forced herself to stand up slowly.
She had to get out of here quickly.
The residual effects of the drug are still there, so we can't stay here for long. If the drug takes effect, or if someone in the palace sees us, we'll be finished!
She held on to her delicate body and disappeared into the night.
…
In the room.
Lin Jiangnian was left alone, puzzled as to what had gone wrong.
The drug is ineffective?
Or was she prepared?
After thinking about it, it seems that this is the only possibility... Is she still prepared?
But no matter what, the plan failed!
Lin Jiangnian sighed deeply.
This woman is really too cautious and difficult to deal with.
If you fail this time, you won’t be so lucky next time!
She will certainly be on high alert, and it will be almost impossible to plot against her like this again.
In this case, we can only take a long-term view next.
After a while, Lin Jiangnian sighed deeply in the room.
…
early morning.
The sunlight slowly fell into the yard, overlooking the palace and the small courtyard on the east side.
"Squeak."
The door opened, and Zhiyuan, wearing a plain long dress, walked out of the room and glanced at the sky.
The sun is still shining today.
She washed and had breakfast as usual, then went to the inner palace to check whether the maids were slacking off.
The maids in the mansion loved, feared and revered the cold-looking maid.
Zhiyuan was indeed very kind to them. As long as they didn't make any serious mistakes, he would hardly punish them. There was no need to worry about them being maliciously targeted, beaten to death, or thrown into the wilderness to feed the wolves.
The maids in Prince Lin’s Mansion are treated much better than those in other places!
Because of this, the maids in the mansion all had a very good impression of her. But at the same time, Zhiyuan's cold and unapproachable appearance also made them instinctively fearful and uneasy.
Therefore, even though she was a maid in the palace and had a very high status, Zhiyuan had almost no friends in the palace.
After inspecting the inner court, Zhiyuan went to the front yard again. By the time he finished his work, it was almost noon.
When she returned to the courtyard and was about to go back to her room to rest for a while, she suddenly stopped.
Look up.
There was a figure sitting under the eaves not far ahead. It seemed like he had been waiting for her for a long time.
"Are you back?"
Zhiyuan frowned slightly, looking at the uninvited guest who had casually barged into her yard, and spoke calmly.
"Your Highness!"
The only person who dared to intrude into her territory so brazenly was Lin Jiangnian.
"Where have you been?"
Lin Jiangnian sat at the foot of the stairs, looking at the kite in the yard, and said with a smile: "This prince has been waiting for you for a long time!"
"I went to do some things!"
Zhiyuan spoke calmly and glanced at Lin Jiangnian: "Your Highness, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"Um?"
Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows.
Zhiyuan lowered her eyes and did not respond.
Seeing this, Lin Jiangnian realized something... Still angry?
Even the master forgot to call?
However, Lin Jiangnian didn't care this time.
"Did you have meal?"
The sudden topic startled Zhiyuan. He raised his eyes, then quickly lowered them again: "No."
"Are you hungry?"
Zhiyuan's eyes were calm: "I'm not hungry!"
"It's time to eat even if you're not hungry!"
Lin Jiangnian looked up at the sky, stood up, and patted his butt: "Let's go, follow this prince to dinner!"
Lin Jiangnian took a few steps forward, turned around, and saw Zhiyuan still standing there without moving: "What are you standing there for? Come on!"
Zhiyuan looked up at Lin Jiangnian and hesitated.
In the end, no words were spoken.
He lowered his eyes and followed.
(Two in one) One chapter left...
