Chapter 167: Confession – Getting Beaten (Sad) (Supplement)
The room was dimly lit by yellow light, and it was peaceful.
Leaning against the head of the bed, Su Jiu glanced at the drink in Yun Xi’s hand. She raised her eyebrows and said, “What kind of drink at midnight? What if someone drugs it? It’s unsafe for two girls like us.”
Upon hearing the word “drugged,” Yun Xi’s small hand trembled, but she quickly recovered and whispered, “No, these are the popular rose black tea and lemon tea outside.”
“With the Magic Crystal Sister Jiu gave me, I have some spare money. I saw Sister Jiu’s sword was made of flower petals, so I specially bought these drinks. The rose black tea is for you.”
After speaking, Yun Xi looked at Su Jiu innocently, holding the two drinks and walked over, just like a girl next door.
She planned to finish this job and then leave. After all, according to Su Jiu’s itinerary, she would return to Dragon Country after getting the Magic Crystal, and Yun Xi still had to stay to figure things out.
Her gaze shifted slightly downwards to where Su Jiu was under the thin blanket. Yun Xi’s face turned red, and her mind was filled with bad thoughts.
When Su Jiu’s senses were affected by the drug, she would reveal her identity and then teach Su Jiu a good lesson, letting her know what it meant to “meow”!
This Bloodnight Drunk had a nice saying among the Blood Clan: “If the king is drunk for a day, it’s hard to hold court the next morning.” To put it plainly, it was a top-tier aphrodisiac. After drinking it, one would lose all strength and also become aroused…
“Oh, put it on the table.”
Su Jiu casually replied and went back to watching anime. While watching, she pointed to the bathroom and said, “You haven’t taken a shower yet. Go take one. Drink it after you shower.”
Hearing this, Yun Xi happily gave Su Jiu an “OK” gesture, then cheerfully tossed her pajamas onto the bed and went into the bathroom to shower, even humming a little English tune.
“Are you going to Scarborough Fair?”
Her pajamas happened to fall into Su Jiu’s hands. Su Jiu felt the still-warm pajamas in her hand, and the corner of her mouth twitched. She couldn’t help but look towards the bathroom.
“This darn girl, why is she always so careless? If she met someone with ill intentions, she’d probably be eaten down to the bone.”
Mist quickly filled the bathroom. The petite figure also appeared a bit graceful under the mist. The tune was even drawn out long, as if she thought of something happy.
“Parsley~~sage~~rosemary and thyme.”
Su Jiu knew this song; it was an old song. She didn’t expect that this world had the exact same one. This made her curious about Yun Xi’s age, why she listened to such old songs.
“I’ll ask about Yun Xi’s specific identity later. After all, the customs of Dragon Country are quite strict. If she’s really the daughter of some important figure in the Blood Clan, my little Night Watcher can’t afford it.”
“Speaking of which, does the Ville sell such drinks at night? This looks quite expensive.”
Su Jiu’s gaze moved away from the bathroom and back to the drinks on the table. She got up and smelled both bottles, looking surprised. “Why do they both smell like alcohol? But it should be some kind of cocktail, and Yun Xi should be able to drink it too.”
“One is rose black tea flavored, and the other is lemon flavored. If those two are mixed together, won’t it directly turn into iced black tea flavor? Yun Xi probably hasn’t had Dragon Country’s iced black tea before, right?”
Looking at the two bottles of different colored liquids, Su Jiu suddenly had a flash of inspiration. She couldn’t help but sigh at her own genius. She had wanted to try this long ago when she saw Youyou mixing drinks.
With that thought, her hands didn’t slow down. Su Jiu, imitating Youyou, took a large cup, directly mixed the contents of the two cups, and then shook it vigorously.
“When Yun Xi drinks it later, it will definitely be a surprise.”
Hearing the bubbling sound from within, she felt it should be done. Then, using her ice attribute, she added a few small ice cubes. She poured the liquid from the large cup back into the two cups.
Su Jiu again held up one of the cups under the dim yellow light. She saw that the liquid within was dim yellow with a hint of red, looking similar to Dragon Country’s iced black tea.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve had this fat-and-thin beverage.”
Grinning, Su Jiu didn’t think much of it and took a big gulp. She felt the coolness go straight down her throat to the tip of her heart. Then, a flush of red spread across her face, and a burning sensation filled her entire body, followed by a complete lack of strength.
“What’s going on?! This drink…”
A sense of dread washed over Su Jiu’s face. She put down the almost empty cup.
Su Jiu knew her own body very well. Because of the purification of her life force through the Ice Dragon Transformation, she wasn’t afraid of ordinary poisons. But to lose all strength after drinking one cup, not even able to exert any force, was something else.
“What is this? *pant pant*… My body feels so uncomfortable.”
She stumbled and fell onto the table, panting heavily. Even her vision started to mist over, and she had to bite her lip hard to stay conscious.
“Click!”
At this moment, Yun Xi, who was in the bathroom, slowly came out. She wasn’t even wrapped in a towel as she leisurely walked up to Su Jiu, a faint smile on her face.
“Sister~~~ Jiu, what’s wrong?”
Then, she gently picked up Su Jiu’s chin with her finger. The faint heat emanating from it made Su Jiu’s already muddled consciousness even more dispirited. She could only mumble, “Yun Xi, don’t drink that… Someone drugged it.”
“Drugged?”
Su Jiu’s words made Yun Xi slightly stunned, and a sense of guilt even arose in her heart. But she was a bad woman… Sooner or later, she curled her lips and gently asked, “Does it feel uncomfortable? Do you need me to help you relieve it?”
You wretched servant, if this duke has to, I’ll personally use my hands to help you…
Although Yun Xi said that she was a bad woman, in a certain corner of her heart, she had already become like Su Jiu.
“*pant pant*…”
Hearing this, Su Jiu slightly raised her head, trying to clear the mist from her eyes. She looked at Yun Xi with disbelief, took a few breaths, and then stammered, “Yun Xi… Did you drug me? Why?!”
“Why? You wretched servant, you’ve been taking advantage of me all this time, and you ask why? Later, you’ll obediently learn to meow for this duke!”
As she spoke, a red light flashed in Yun Xi’s eyes, and her hair slowly turned white from the roots. Her lips gradually curved upwards, revealing that signature mysterious smile. Her aura even became noble.
Then, faint phantom flower petals scattered around her, as if welcoming someone’s arrival. Yun Xi could also be called Vivian. She pointed at Su Jiu’s chin with one hand, picked up the wine glass on the table with the other, and gently swirled it.
Su Jiu’s eyes were hazy as she softly asked, “Are you…”
“That’s right.”
Yun Xi pursed her red lips, took her hand back, brushed a long strand of hair from her right cheek, and drank with great pride. Hmm—why did it taste like iced black tea?
Seeing the other party causing such a scene, Su Jiu’s inner heat had nowhere to go. Her blood-red eyes stared intently at the tear mole on Yun Xi’s right cheek and she spoke word by word: “Silly Duke?”
Then, whether out of desire or love, Su Jiu managed to stand up, but her legs went weak again. She placed her hands on Yun Xi’s shoulders and lowered her head.
Yun Xi: …
Never mind, I’ll use a stick later.
Silly Duke, right? Later… Wait, my body…
Just as Yun Xi was speechless, she suddenly widened her eyes and looked at the drink in her cup. In the dim yellow light, she faintly saw rose petals floating on top, but didn’t she order lemon?
Could it be that the stupid servant mixed the two cups together?
🌿!!
The next moment, her legs also went weak, and she knelt down. Looking up, she saw Su Jiu’s face, filled with delirium, staring at her intently.
Supporting herself on the floor with one hand, Yun Xi’s throat moved slightly. She licked her somewhat pale lips and said with a slight tremor, “It’s all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding…”
She hadn’t finished drinking it, so she still had some reason left. But it was precisely because of her reason that she felt a deep fear.
What is that wretched servant trying to do?! Don’t come over!
“Ahhh! You idiot, don’t bite there!!!”
