"father!"

Zhou Ying was completely desperate. Her family's betrayal made her feel as if her heart was being cut by a knife. Her bloodshot eyes stared at Zhou Hai.

Zhou Hai looked at his devastated daughter with tears in his eyes, "Ying'er, don't blame Dad. Your brother can't take the blame for you. If you want to hate someone, hate me, don't blame your brother."

Zhou Lu knew that his father's words would put his sister in an irretrievable situation, but for his own sake, he could only keep his head down and remain silent.

At this time, Lin Shuyan walked up to Wu Yuanan, knelt down and said, "Sir, I want to sue Zhou Lu. He put drugs in my tea, then helped me to his room, locked the doors and windows, and lit aphrodisiac incense.

After Zhou Lu left, Zhou Ying entered the room with the intention of doing something bad to me. Fortunately, I have inner strength to suppress the drug's properties and escape. Otherwise, I would be unable to defend myself today, and I would not be able to clear my name even if I jumped into the Yellow River."

"Sir, this is the cup I secretly put away after I drank the tea and realized something was wrong. Please ask a doctor to check it out."

He took out a teacup from his sleeve and handed it to Wu Mo. Wu Mo took it and hurried away at Wu Yuanan's signal.

Lin Shuyan's words caused a huge uproar. Both the students and Master Wang looked at Zhou Lu in disbelief.

"So that's why I was wondering why Ayan, a martial artist, suddenly felt unwell. It turns out you drugged him! Why are you so vicious!" Zhao Xuewen suddenly realized and looked at Zhou Lu angrily.

Zhou Lu fell to the ground, his face pale. He was too nervous after taking the drug, and he did not notice that Lin Shuyan had put the cup away...

Soon, Wu Mo came back with an old doctor. Wu Yuanan stood up and handed the cup to the old doctor.

"Please check if there is anything unusual in this cup."

The old doctor was over 60 years old. He took the cup, smelled it first, then scraped the wall of the cup with his fingers and tasted it...

After a while, he took the tea handed to him by Wu Mo and rinsed his mouth, then he said: "My Lord, there is Red Dust Drunk left on the wall of this cup. If you take Red Dust Drunk, you will become pale and extremely weak, as if you have suddenly fallen ill, and then you will be in a short coma."

Wu Yuanan nodded, and motioned for the old doctor to check Lin Shuyan's pulse. After a moment, the old doctor reported back, "Sir, there is indeed a little bit of Red Dust Drunk left in this young man's body, but it's nothing serious."

Wu Yuanan's face darkened when he heard this, and he said sternly: "Zhou Lu, what else do you have to say?"

Zhou Lu was so frightened that he was at a loss for words, mumbling, "I...I..."

Zhou Hai looked at his useless son, exhausted. He sighed and argued, "My Lord, even if Lin Shuyan was poisoned, it doesn't mean that it was definitely my son who poisoned him!"

"Heh... You really won't cry until you see the coffin!" Lin Shuyan sneered, and then said to Wu Yuanan loudly: "Sir, I have someone who can testify for my student."

"Bring it in!"

After a while, the yamen runner led a young servant in gray clothes with his head lowered. The servant knelt on the ground and said timidly, "I, Niu Shun, greet you, sir."

"Niu Shun? Why is it you? What are you doing here?" Wang Xun, who was kneeling on the ground and watching the show with relish, was so startled that he almost jumped up and his expression began to panic.

Niu Shun glanced at Wang Xun and called out weakly, "Young Master."

"Niu Shun, just tell me everything you saw and heard." Lin Shuyan stared at him.

Niu Shun's face turned bitter. He took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

Today he followed Wang Xun to Yuhu Manor. At the gate of the manor, Wang Xun saw Zhou Ying standing with Zhou Hai. Wang Xun saw that she was good-looking and he became interested in her.

But considering Zhou Hai who was beside her, Wang Xun did not go forward immediately. Instead, he bribed the gatekeeper after entering the manor and asked Niu Shun to disguise himself as a servant in the tea room of Yuhu Manor and sneak into the manor. He then told him to follow Zhou Ying and notify him when Zhou Ying was alone.

At first, Zhou Ying stayed in the guest house for female relatives on the west side. About half an hour later, Zhou Ying left the guest house and went straight to the guest house on the east side.

Because the guests were all touring around the manor at that time, she walked smoothly to the door of the guest house.

Niu Shun didn't dare to go too close, and hid behind a rockery on the right side of the guest courtyard entrance and looked out. However, he saw Wang Xun's classmate Zhou Lu walking out of the courtyard in a hurry. When he saw Zhou Ying, he directly pulled her to the shadow of the rockery to talk.

Coincidentally, the brother and sister were right next to the rockery where Niu Shun was hiding, so Niu Shun could hear everything they said clearly.

Niu Shun heard Zhou Lu excitedly telling Zhou Ying that he had knocked Lin Shuyan unconscious and sent her to his room, and asked Zhou Ying to go in quickly.

He also said that when the time came, he would work with Master Gao to lead people to the guest house, so that Lin Shuyan would have no way to defend himself and could only agree to their request. After that, Lawyer Zhou gave a key to Zhou Ying and left.

Niu Shun was somewhat excited at the time, and secretly followed Zhou Ying into the guest house. He saw with his own eyes that she used a key to open a locked room.

After she went in, Niu Shun left the guest courtyard and hid behind the rockery at the entrance of the guest courtyard. Just as he was hiding, he saw Lin Shuyan walking out with a gloomy face.

Niu Shun remembered what the young master had told him, and ran to the lake to find Wang Xun, telling him that Zhou Ying was now alone in Zhou Lu's room.

Unexpectedly, when Wang Xun heard this, he immediately left in a hurry, and Niu Shun didn't even have time to tell him that Zhou Lu and Zhou Ying were plotting against Lin Shuyan.

Afterwards, Niu Shun was planning to go back to the tea room in a restless mood, but he was bumped into by Lin Shuyan and Yuhu Manor's manager Yu on the way.

The problem was that he usually followed Wang Xun, so Lin Shuyan recognized him. Just like that, he was caught by Lin Shuyan and Manager Yu.

Wang Xun was so angry that he almost had a heart attack. He pointed at Niu Shun and shouted, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

If he had said it earlier, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation, and he wouldn't have to be with Zhou Ying.

"Zhou Lu, Zhou Ying, Gao Renxing! Why don't you tell the truth?" Wu Yuanan swept his sharp eyes towards Zhou Lu's siblings and Master Gao.

Zhou Lu's mentality had already collapsed, and he cried and begged for mercy: "My Lord, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have plotted against Lin Shuyan..."

Gao Renxing wanted to argue, but he saw his good friend Wang Fuzi looking at him with anger and disappointment in his eyes, and the other students also looked at him with contempt, so the words that were about to come out of his mouth got stuck in his throat...

Zhou Ying, who was already wearing the cloak that Manager Yu had the maid bring to her, stared at the ground with empty eyes, not saying a word.

Seeing this, Wu Yuanan stood up, straightened his sleeves, and said in a deep voice: "Come here, take Zhou Lu, Zhou Ying, Gao Renxing, Wang Xun, and Niu Shun back to the government office, throw them into jail, and retry them on another day!"

"Yes!"

The bailiffs quickly dispersed and were about to leave, escorting a few people.

"Sir! Wait a minute!" Zhou Hai looked at his embarrassed son with tears in his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Sir! I forced my son to do this, he knows nothing, if you want to arrest someone, just arrest me..."

Wu Yuanan paused, and the yamen runners behind him also stopped.
