Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Yu Shu noticed that the young lady looked pale and seemed to be frightened.

Ye Yunzi calmed down and asked, "Did you see anyone at the door just now?"

"At the door?" Yu Shu looked back and shook her head.

"No, there was no one there when I came. Miss, don't worry, this floor is reserved by the Su family, and no outsiders will come in."

Yu Shu thought the young lady was worried about her safety, so she comforted her in this way.

The third floor was occupied by people from the Su family caravan, and there were guards on duty, so it should be safe. But Ye Yunzi's face was heavy, because she had just heard the footsteps of two people, lingering in front of her door.

If it weren't for her keen hearing, she might not have noticed there was someone outside the door.

Who were these people? They left quickly, and when Yu Shu came over, they were nowhere to be seen.

Ye Yunzi felt uneasy and thought that the matter was not simple. Yu Shu comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Miss. It's easy to worry about a long journey."

At this time, the store owner brought a bathtub, filled it with hot water, and sprinkled some fresh flower petals.

Yu Shu said, "Miss, I'll be waiting outside the door. Call me if you need anything." After that, Yu Shu went out and closed the door.

Ye Yunzi looked at the tub and sighed softly. "Maybe I'm overthinking it."

She had been very nervous recently because of Shen Siyan's incident, and maybe that was why she became suspicious. She thought that the footsteps outside the door might be someone from the Su family caravan passing by, so she took off her clothes and stepped into the bathtub.

Although her doubts were alleviated, she remained alert and quickly stood up after taking a shower.

After dinner everything was quiet and nothing unusual happened.

Ye Yunzi thought to herself, it seems that she was really too nervous.

"Miss, go to bed early tonight. There are guards from the Su family guarding outside, so you can rest assured."

Ye Yunzi nodded, "Okay, you can go and rest too, you don't have to watch over me."

Yu Shu looked very tired and yawned several times. She was exhausted from the journey. Seeing this, Ye Yunzi asked her to go back and rest. Yu Shu was very happy and immediately agreed and turned to leave.

The room fell silent again. Ye Yunzi glanced at the door and blew out the candle. The moon was very round tonight, and the moonlight poured into the room. Even without the lights on, the furnishings in the room could be vaguely seen.

She lay on the soft bed, staring at the ceiling. Her mind was full of Shen Siyan and the poison, as well as the dispute between the Shen family and the Princess of Nanyue. These complicated issues were like a big net that entangled her tightly.

She was sweating, feeling irritable, and tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sudden noise outside the door. Ye Yunzi's face changed. The person outside the door walked very quietly, but she was still able to hear it clearly even though she was on high alert.

This didn't sound like a guard's voice, but rather like someone looking for something.

Could it be that what I heard before was not an illusion? Ye Yunzi became more alert and picked up the white porcelain bottle next to her. At this time, the door was gently pushed open.

Someone came in! She frowned but didn't move, wanting to see who it was and what their purpose was.

The guards outside were silent, and the inn was silent, with only the sound of light footsteps approaching slowly.

The man looked around cautiously, and finally locked his eyes on the bed. Ye Yunzi closed her eyes tightly, but her ears caught every movement, and she felt that the man was getting closer and closer.

Suddenly, there was a subtle sound - the sound of a knife being unsheathed. Ye Yunzi's heart tightened, realizing that the other party was carrying a weapon!

He was a man with cold eyes and a clear goal: to find and eliminate Miss Su and Doctor Tao.

They tracked here and found that the Su family caravan was staying in this inn, so they put drugs in the food, making everyone fall asleep, creating conditions for the action.

The man gripped the knife handle tightly, ready to strike. However, at this moment, the person on the bed opened his eyes, staring at him with clear eyes, without the slightest fear, and asked coldly: "Who are you?"

The man was startled and stabbed at her with the knife. Ye Yunzi reacted quickly and the white porcelain bottle in her hand flew towards the man. He instinctively blocked it and the bottle shattered, emitting a pungent smell.

Ye Yunzi was prepared and covered her mouth and nose with a cloth.

"It's poison," she said quietly.

"Poison?" The man was shocked and hurriedly covered his mouth with his sleeve, but it was too late. He felt difficulty breathing and his face turned red.

"Ah..." he cried in pain.

Ye Yunzi got off the bed and looked at the man in front of her expressionlessly.

"Who sent you here? Are you going to kill me or the Su family?" she asked.

The knife in the man's hand fell to the ground. He covered his throat and gasped with difficulty.

"Antidote... give me the antidote quickly!"

"Tell me, who sent you here?" Ye Yunzi asked again.

“Give me the antidote…” The man struggled, his face becoming increasingly ugly.

"It's Madam Shen."

"Mrs. Shen?" Ye Yunzi was shocked. She didn't expect that the mastermind behind the scenes was Mrs. Shen, and the other party's influence extended to this point.

"Mrs. Shen sent you to kill me?"

Ye Yunzi was shocked. How did the people from the Shen Mansion find her? Did she get caught impersonating Madam Shen in the Shen Mansion?

Oh no! Doctor Tao is in danger!

Ye Yunzi's face suddenly changed, and she rushed out in a hurry. If someone was targeting her, then Doctor Tao would definitely be in danger! He was the only hope to solve the poison in her body, and he must not let anything happen to him.

"Wait..." The man on the ground struggled in pain and grabbed the corner of her clothes.

"Give me the antidote. I've told you everything. Give me the antidote now!"

Ye Yunzi looked down at him coldly, without a trace of pity in her eyes.

"Everyone must be responsible for their own actions. How much innocent blood is on your hands?" She said, struggled to break free from his hand, turned and ran.

Doctor Tao, you must be okay!

As soon as she walked out of the room, Ye Yunzi found that the two guards outside the door were lying on the ground, obviously knocked down by someone.

She quickly checked and found that they were just unconscious. The whole inn was eerily quiet. Apparently drugs were put into the food, making everyone unconscious.

Fortunately, she had no appetite tonight and didn't eat anything, so she escaped.

Thinking of what might happen to Dr. Tao, Ye Yunzi's heart beat faster.

She quickened her pace and ran towards the guest room where Doctor Tao was staying. When she reached the door, she stopped and took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, ready to deal with possible danger.

Just as she was about to open the door carefully, it suddenly opened. Ye Yunzi was startled and almost threw the porcelain bottle in her hand away.

"Miss Su?" Tao Qiming looked anxious, but he was obviously relieved when he saw Ye Yunzi.

"I'm so glad you're okay!"

He moved aside, and Ye Yunzi saw a man in black clothes lying in the room. He was already dead, with a knife in his hand.

"I was preparing medicine when this man suddenly broke in and tried to kill me... In desperation, I used poison."

Tao Qiming explained, with an uneasy tone in his voice.
