Chapter 135: Poisoned

“Oh! My Lord… you are so… naughty…!!!” Xia Ruoling was breathing heavily as she was turned on like a dog in heat.

’Wow! This woman sure knows how to play it by hands!’ Chi Yan raised his eyebrows as he saw Yun Shu playing this cool.

But at the same time, he was having a hard time restraining Bai Yunxian from running over there and separate them. The cracking sound beside him was getting louder and louder, Chi Yan tried to persuade the latter.

“He is just playing it by ear, it was part of the strategy. Don’t take it too seriously, since your husband will be yours and wouldn’t get played by other’s.”

Bang!

“How am I supposed to stand here and do nothing when that woman is trying to sully My Lord’s noble body?!” The pillar finally crashed down to half as Bai Yunxian yelled over Chi Yan, angry to the core that his whole body was trembling, and his face flushed red.

“…” Bai Yunxian’s reaction made Chi Yan speechless.

’So that’s what you are thinking about?’

And here I thought you were thinking that Yun Shu was cheating on you and got angry…

It was completely opposite of what he thought!

“That…” Chi Yan scratched behind his ears as he tried to say something, but Bai Yunxian waved his hand as he stopped the fox from talking.

“My Lord, what is…” Xia Ruoling was dissatisfied after Yun Shu suddenly retracted herself from the woman, sitting up straight as he smiled.

“On special occasion like this, doesn’t go well without wine, don’t you agree, My Lady?”

Yun Shu’s eyes smiled mysteriously as he gestured Nine to come forward, bringing the jar of wine with two cup of wine. Both of them had the same design, and looked very elegant and finely made.

Xia Ruoling was able to tell there value just in a glance, they were… such priceless treasures!

’As expected, this man’s power and capabilities were on a different level!’ Xia Ruoling thought as she smiled at Yun Shu sweetly.

“Then, we will celebrate this event together.” Xia Ruoling composed herself from anxiety. Since this man was already captured within her fingers, there is nothing to get anxious about.

“This is a special wine from our land, brewed by the family traditionally since a long time ago. Even the Sultan can’t get a hold of this wine at any time he wants, only when he comes to our family as a guest, then do we offer it as a special privilege. In this case, you are quite a fortunate woman, Lady Shen.”

“Is that so?” Xia Ruoling grinned as she stared at Yun Shu.

“Of course. It’s the first time a stranger like you can taste this wine, it’s a honor for you that very few people can get.”

“Let me pour the wine and fill up the glass to brim, today is an auspicious day.”

Yun Shu poured the wine from the jar all by herself, then she offered the first cup of wine to Xia Ruoling, holding up her own wine glass to cheers.

Xia Ruoling didn’t drink before Yun Shu, only twirling it within her hands, waiting for a reaction. But nothing happened to Yun Shu as she emptied the glass of wine in one go.

“Hah! That was a good drink! Huh, why aren’t you still drinking, Lady Xia? Are you afraid I might poison it?”

“…! That’s not it! Just that, My Lord looks so manly when drinking the wine, I was lost in your beauty.” Xia Ruoling took turn in flattering Yun Shu as she laughed out.

Then emptied the glass in one go. Yun Shu praised Xia Ruoling for having such a good appetite as she poured the woman another glass, also drinking the wine by herself.

Bai Yunxian’s expression darkened as he stood afar like a statue made of stone, not moving one bit.

He didn’t know why he felt so insecure watching them like this, despite knowing very well that Yun Shu didn’t have any interest in that old hag.

’Is it because of my karma after all, that I feel so insecure every passing second?’

He didn’t know the answer to that.

In the third glass, Xia Ruoling stopped moving all of a sudden. Yun Shu was still smiling as she looked at Xia Ruoling with bright eyes, asking sweetly, “What happened, Lady Xia? Why aren’t you drinking?”

“This… this is…” Xia Ruoling’s hands were trembling as the cup of wine fell down on the ground from her hands with a crashing sound.

The woman’s vision went blurry and hazy, her head feeling dizzy as she tried to grab onto something, but to no avail.

“Ah! Come to think of it, I almost forgot that this drink was made of pure blood dranied from my heart with your own hands, Lady Xia. And it can be fatal like poison if it was you drinking the wine.”

As Yun Shu said, she lazily knelt before the woman who was bleeding from her mouth, her luxurious clothes were now in a bloody mess. Yun Shu grabbed the woman’s chin and raised it up, looking directly at her blurry eyes as she sneered, “How does it feel now, Xia Ruoling? No, no, or should I call you, Demoness Ruoxi?”

“…!!!”

’How did he know?! It’s impossible! Don’t tell me, did this scoundrel plan everything beforehand?’

“Ahh! Ahhh! Ah! Ah!” Xia Ruoling wanted to scream and yell at Yun Shu, causing a ruckus so that her people will come to surround them and get him.

Even if she tried her best, Xia Ruoling was not able to make a sound.

“Even if you were able to scream, no one is free to come to your rescue. Since they are too busy to even take care of their lives, as you can see…” Yun Shu smirked as she held her chin with both hands, tilting her head.

’This crazy af…!!!’

Xia Ruoling wanted to curse, but swallowed her words the moment she saw the astonishing thing before her.
