Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage -
Chapter 15 Damn, I’ve been calculated.
Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Damn, I’ve been calculated.
The dishes in the hot pot were fragrant and spicy, and Feng Jinrui was currently sweating profusely as he ate.
Without thinking, he immediately answered Chu Qianli’s question, "I’ve seen Xiaotao."
Xiaotao! She was one of the maids beside Yu Linglong.
A slight tension gripped Chu Qianli’s heart, and her fingertips began to tighten slowly, "What did she want with you?"
"Do you want to frame Miss Yu?" Feng Jinrui’s expression darkened, stating unhappily, "Miss Yu has been treating the Empress Dowager for many years and has shown great kindness to our Prince Residence!"
"If you dare to frame her, my Loyal Brother will not let you off!"
However, one has to be soft-spoken when indebted to others.
Although Feng Jinrui still harbored strong distaste for Chu Qianli, at least he was no longer verbally abusive.
He just said coldly, "Xiaotao was merely passing by. She only gave me her regards and didn’t even touch me!"
Let alone having the chance to poison him.
The Enchantress wants to wrongly accuse good people, wishful thinking!
Chu Qianli’s gaze grew pensive, "You said that upon entering, you smelled a fragrance?"
Now that she thought about it, there indeed was a light scent in her bedroom last night.
However, that scent was created by sandalwood, which has a calming effect and does not harm the human body.
Upon further thought, that sandalwood scent from the Yuqing Wood was actually a wedding gift from Yu Linglong.
That was an old valuable!
Chu Qianli suddenly tensed up, looking up at Feng Jinrui, "Did Xiaotao let you smell any fragrance?"
"Enchantress! You still want to slander Miss Yu!"
Feng Jinrui stood up abruptly, glaring at her, "Enchantress! You..."
"I was just asking casually, why are you getting so angry?"
However, by this time, Chu Qianli also understood.
Miss Yu held a very high status in the hearts of everyone at the Prince Residence.
The Yuqing Wood indeed did not have any adverse effects, but for some reason, Feng Jinrui mentioned he saw Xiaotao last night.
At this moment, she was especially suspicious of Yu Linglong.
She believed in her sixth sense.
Anyone with clear eyes could tell that Yu Linglong liked Feng Yexuan.
So if Yu Linglong wanted to harm her, the new bride on Yexuan’s wedding night, there would be enough reason.
Then, where lay the problem?
Hisss. Why did the wound on her arm suddenly start to burn? It was killing her!
Chu Qianli instinctively covered the location of the wound.
Seeing this, Feng Jinrui’s revulsion toward her lessened slightly, "Sorry, I was too reckless just now."
He now started to doubt as well—perhaps everything tonight was indeed a trap set by someone.
Both he and Chu Qianli might be victims.
Yet, when he thought about Chu Qianli lying on top of him just now, anger and humiliation drove him close to tearing her apart.
"It’s nothing, just a trivial injury." It was just a break in the skin and a bit of blood loss.
It was supposed to be nothing, but for some reason, the wound was becoming more uncomfortable.
No, it was not just the wound. Her entire body started to feel inexplicably uncomfortable too.
Chu Qianli lifted her head, looking at the man standing in front of her.
Suddenly, her throat felt parched, and her body became increasingly hotter.
She really wanted... really wanted to touch him...
"Enchantress, what are you doing?" Feng Jinrui was caught off guard when her hand managed to creep onto his arm.
Even, she had stroked his arm.
"You!" He pushed her hand away, furious to the point where he nearly unsheathed his sword, "How dare you!"
"Your sword..." Chu Qianli’s palm-sized face slowly turned a burning red.
Her breathing grew rapid, and her whole body was overheating.
But her expression was extremely cold.
His sword was poisoned!
Dammit! She had been calculated against!
If someone were to poison the food, for her, it would not be easy to fall victim.
She was naturally sensitive to poison.
Yet the person had poisoned Feng Jinrui’s sword instead.
This was utterly defenseless!
This drug was too overpowering, and Chu Qianli, having just transmigrated, was not yet fully accustomed to the original owner’s body.
To resist such a fierce drug was almost impossible.
She wanted to buy some medicine from the System to alleviate the effects, but damn it, she didn’t have enough money!
"Ugh..." She felt so uncomfortable!
Unable to help it, she stood up, leaning on the table and reaching out towards Feng Jinrui.
Feng Jinrui recoiled with disgust, hastily retreating two steps, "Enchantress, if you dare to touch me again, I’ll kill you!"
