Gu Jiao's mind was filled with only one sentence——It's over, completely over.

Gu Jiao managed a few words out of her gritted teeth, "How could the medicine have been drunk by Princess Xinyang! Wasn't it given to you by Yu Jin?"

It was all because someone couldn't keep their cheap mouth shut, which kept bragging and showing off, angering Princess Xinyang to death. In her anger, Princess Xinyang refused to give him the “pain-relieving medicine” and drank it herself instead.

Princess Xinyang was unaware of the situation. Seeing Gu Jiao in the courtyard, she stepped towards Gu Jiao without even glancing at Marquis Xuanping beside her and said, "Where did you just go? I couldn't find you."

Gu Jiao: I should be asking you that, where did you just go? Aren’t you supposed to be in the cloth shop? How did you end up here?

Seeming to sense Gu Jiao's confusion, Princess Xinyang explained, "When I got back to Zhuque Street, I remembered that the clothes I had made for you guys should be finished, so I went to the cloth shop to pick them up. Yours are in your room. Hurry and try them on. If they don't fit, I'll take them back for a replacement."

Princess Xinyang had made clothes for all the children at home, including Huangfu Xian. Just now, she went to Old Chief's side specifically to help Huangfu Xian try on the clothes and determine if it was the right size.

It was just, she didn't expect to have another unpleasant encounter with Marquis Xuanping on her way.

Forget it, it would be strange if this man didn’t make people unhappy one day.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Princess Xinyang noticed Gu Jiao's indescribable gaze.

Gu Jiao: Would you believe me if I say you've taken the wrong medicine?

"She’s admiring your beauty, maybe?" Marquis Xuanping said carelessly.

Princess Xinyang gave him a fierce glare and said to Gu Jiao, "What are you just standing there for? Come with me quickly."

"Oh."

Gu Jiao silently followed.

The two arrived at Gu Jiao's room.

Princess Xinyang took out the dresses piled on the bed and unfolded them, then compared them to Gu Jiao's body, saying, "It looks quite fitting. They were originally made according to your measurements, but I'm afraid some of the embroiderers might not be skilled enough."

Princess Xinyang had already bought plenty of clothes for Gu Jiao, but a wealthy mother-in-law never thought there were too many clothes to give to her daughter-in-law.

At this moment, Gu Jiao wasn't preoccupied with whether the clothes fit her or not; she was quietly observing Princess Xinyang's complexion and breathing.

"Princess." She spoke up.

"What's wrong? Lift your arm." Princess Xinyang said.

Gu Jiao raised her arm, and Princess Xinyang unfolded the sleeve to compare the size.

As Gu Jiao allowed her to inspect the clothes, she calmly asked, "Do you feel any discomfort anywhere?"

"No, why do you ask?" Princess Xinyang replied.

Gu Jiao's fingertips moved, "It's about the thing you just drank..."

Before Gu Jiao could finish, Xiao Heng returned from the Hanlin Academy. When he arrived at Gu Jiao's door, he saw the two of them and quickly greeted, "Mother, JiaoJiao."

"Back already?" Princess Xinyang glanced at him, "Hurry and try on your clothes."

More clothes again.

The corner of Xiao Heng's mouth twitched, "Alright."

Sure enough, it was just like when he was a child; she always bought thirty sets of clothes a month, never allowing people to wear the same thing twice.

He didn't mind wearing new clothes, but he didn't like trying them on repeatedly.

But since his mother gave the order, he had no choice.

"Alright, try them yourself." Princess Xinyang handed the clothes to Gu Jiao.

"Where are you going?" Gu Jiao asked.

Princess Xinyang chuckled, "I'm not going anywhere. Just going to ask Liu Quan if the horse he exchanged a few days ago is still good to use."

You can't go to Uncle Liu's side!

Gu Jiao hurriedly said, "It's perfectly good! It’s a thousand-mile horse! Exceptionally fast! I've tried it! How about... princess go sit in the study instead?"

Princess Xinyang gave Gu Jiao a strange look, feeling her reaction was a bit odd, but still didn't think much of it, "Alright then."

She went to the study.

Gu Jiao put down the clothes and went to Xiao Heng's room.

Xiao Heng was in the middle of unfastening his waistband when she suddenly came in, startling him to death!

Gu Jiao glanced at his loosely hanging waistband and calmly said, "Husband, there's trouble."

Xiao Heng tightened his waistband. Why am I not entirely satisfied with your reaction?

He cleared his throat and said seriously, "You, you turn around first."

"Oh." Gu Jiao turned around, muttering, "As if I’ve never seen it before."

"What did you say?"

"Nothing!"

She absolutely could not admit that she accidentally saw him naked while she was drunk!

Xiao Heng arranged his clothes neatly, placed the outer garments he had removed onto a nearby rack, then asked, "What happened? You can turn around now."

Gu Jiao turned around and explained about the medicine.

Most people's first reaction upon hearing this would either be "Thank goodness Jing Kong didn't drink it" or "Princess Xinyang is so unlucky, how did she end up drinking it?"

However, Xiao Heng simply looked at Gu Jiao with an extra puzzled expression, "Why do you have such a medicine in the first place?"

Gu Jiao: "Would you believe me if I say it was given to me by the little medicine chest itself?"

Xiao Heng: "..."

It would be a wonder if I believe you.

Xiao Heng looked at Gu Jiao, his expression becoming complex.

She repeatedly said they should wait until she grew up, but in the end, she couldn't resist and decided to drug him first, didn't she?

Gu Jiao: "..."

Could you be any more off-topic?

"So what do we do now?" Xiao Heng asked, deciding to discuss the matter of her trying to drug him later and focus on the current issue for now, "Is there an antidote?"

Princess Xinyang and Marquis Xuanping weren't a real husband and wife. They couldn’t let them share a bed, or else Princess Xinyang waking up the next morning might result in murder.

Gu Jiao regretfully said, "There's no antidote."

Xiao Heng's expression slightly changed, "So, we can only..."

Gu Jiao blinked, "The princess... Does she really not have any kept men?"

Xiao Heng: "..."

Gu Jiao's question indicated that the effects of this medicine weren't something easily shrugged off, but Princess Xinyang truly didn't have the habit of keeping men.

She couldn't even get close to a man, so the story of her keeping men was just a rumor.

Gu Jiao sighed, "Well... we can only make her drink more water, and then I'll give her some electrolytes to see if we can speed up metabolism."

"I guess, that's all we can do." Xiao Heng said, "I'll go brew some cooling tea."

The couple split up to take action at once.

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"

Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
