It is for this reason that Liu Yingxue took the initiative to find out that Wu Zechen was coming to Xianlin Tower today, and squatted here in advance waiting to create opportunities to meet him!
Not only that, she also made preparations...
Glancing at the sachet in her hand, a slightly cold and imperceptible look flashed across her eyes.
Liu Yingxue thought that she could win Wu Zechen's affection with such a weak posture, but unfortunately, Wu Zechen was one of the rare people who was indifferent to her appearance. Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, he was completely unmoved. move.
Although Wu Zechen did treat Liu Yingxue a little differently, unlike other women who were so cold and distant, she was only able to get close to him, not to the point of developing a crush on him. At this time, she was acting like the most uncomfortable person on weekdays. Naturally, it is impossible to impress him in the slightest with such a happy gesture.
"I've been a little busy lately." Wu Zechen replied calmly, explaining why he hadn't been looking for her in the past few days.
But even though he said this, he knew very well in his heart that he did this on purpose. Since he had not yet developed a good impression of her, and she was anxious to settle down the marriage, it was better not to delay her.
"Is Brother Chen free today? I haven't seen you for a few days, and Xue'er misses her a little..." Liu Yingxue looked at Wu Zechen with bright eyes, a faint blush on her cheeks, and anyone who saw it could tell that it was the girl who was pregnant with spring. color.
However, she never expected that Wu Zechen interrupted her unfinished words.
"Sorry, I'm busy today. I'll make an appointment with Miss Liu when I'm free another day." His expression was still so calm, as if he didn't know what Liu Yingxue was thinking.
When her words were interrupted, Liu Yingxue couldn't help biting her pink lips, her expression was awkward and shy, but a fire of grudge suddenly arose in her heart.
It must be that damn Xia family bastard! It must be the fault of that mean woman!
Otherwise, how could Wu Zechen's attitude change so much in just a few days! ?
She has been paying attention to Wu Zechen's whereabouts. He has not been in contact with any women at all in recent days. So for such changes, the most likely cause is Xia Luotong!
There was a fierce look in his eyes, and when he raised his head again, half of it was gone, replaced by a look of sadness and hurt on his face.
"Brother Chen's business is important. Xue'er understands that. Xue'er embroidered this sachet herself stitch by stitch. Xue'er can't stay with brother Chen. I hope brother Chen can accept it." Liu Yingxue said expectantly. Stretching out his hands, there was a beautifully embroidered sachet lying quietly in the white and tender palms.
Wu Zechen looked at the sachet, his eyes dark and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a moment, he nodded and reached out to take the sachet.
When Liu Yingxue saw him accepting it, a happy smile appeared on her fair face, but the next moment, Wu Zechen's words made her smile freeze directly on her face.
"There are so many talkative people out there, Miss Liu would be better off calling me by my title."
Wu Zechen's voice was smooth, without any waves. He had such a calm expression from beginning to end, and his voice was so calm that there was no fluctuation. It was as if the person he was talking to was just an acquaintance who was not far or close. Just people.
Hearing what Wu Zechen said, Liu Yingxue's face turned pale, with a hint of disbelief in her eyes.
Although she just started calling him this way today, she felt that with her unique status in his heart, there would be no problem with such an affectionate title. He must be willing to do so, but she didn't expect...
"I still have something to do, Miss Liu, please excuse me." After Wu Zechen said that, he didn't wait any longer and walked directly around Liu Yingxue and left. There was no nostalgia or hesitation in the figure that gradually moved away.
Liu Yingxue suddenly looked back at the retreating figure until she completely disappeared around the corner. Her face darkened on the spot, as gloomy as if it could drip water. Her eyes were full of coldness and jealousy, and her lips Slightly moving, whispers of gritted teeth spilled out of his mouth...
"Xia Luotong!!"
Holding the woman in his arms, Liu Zimo walked straight into his private room and sat down on the chair by the window.
He naturally held the woman on his lap and let her lean into his arms, as if it was natural, without any hesitation or avoidance.
Then he held up her hand in a familiar manner, squeezed the soft little hand gently, and raised a gentle smile on his lips, but this smile that usually made people feel soft, now had a three-pointed expression. The evil spirit is becoming more and more attractive.
He didn't stay on that little hand for too long. After a moment, he reached into her sleeve pocket and took out the bottle of pills.
He opened the bottle cap and took out one of the brown pills, slowly put it into her mouth, and finally brushed it against her lips as if unintentionally.
Soft and pleasant...
After putting the medicine bottle away and putting it back into her sleeve pocket, he looked at the woman in his arms leisurely, his eyes full of interest and meaning, recalling the information sent back by his spies.
He never thought that the person who dragged him around in the alley last time not only saved a life with a poison-sealing needle and a poison-inducing needle that only existed in legends, but also used strange methods to poison people. The woman turned out to be Princess An, who has been rumored a lot recently, and the wife of Prince An Wu Zechen who just got married!
But this so-called wife...
He chuckled silently, was his wife in name only a wife?
According to the news from the spy, Xia Luotong, Princess An, was driven to the most remote courtyard in the palace on her wedding day. Not to mention consummating the marriage, she did not even enjoy the treatment of a princess for a day.
I didn't expect Wu Zechen to be unmoved by such a beautiful woman. I wonder if that's the problem?
Thinking of this, Liu Zimo couldn't help but smile. This was exactly what he wanted.
It just so happens that he is very interested in her now...
Seeing a faint trace of blood on her lips, he took out the handkerchief and gently wiped it away for her with gentle eyes.
He didn't expect that after this investigation, he would find something else.
Xia Luotong, the eldest daughter of the Xia family, was actually fed poison by her stepmother Li since she was a child. Over the past ten years or so, the poison has become so deep-rooted that she may not be able to survive for a few days.
Thinking of the judgment made by the spy during his report, the smile on his lips couldn't help but widen a bit.
Everyone was fooled by her. I'm afraid no one could have imagined that her detoxification skills had reached such an extent, right? Looking at the entire Zhou Dynasty, I am afraid that only the Poison Technique lineage in Baihua Valley can compete with her, right?
With her own ability to detoxify, coupled with her calm look when talking about her own poisoning last time, and her subsequent remarks about being able to detoxify, he had no doubt about the authenticity of this matter.
He believed that she would be able to detoxify him!
