Light footsteps, approaching step by step.
"No, don't come here!"
Zhu Chengxi fell to the ground, sweating profusely. The pain at that moment almost made him faint, and his pale face was bloodless.
He could no longer feel his right arm, but the pain seemed to spread to every part of his body.
Seeing Xiao Ruge approaching, he leaned back a little bit, his eyes filled with fear.
The shoes embroidered with unknown flowers stopped in front of him, and Zhu Chengxi couldn't stop shaking all over.
"You...don't come over..."
The look in his eyes was as if he had seen a ghost.
Looking at his reaction, Xiao Ruge curled her lips in satisfaction.
"Didn't you just say you wanted to marry me?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Chengxi shook his head frantically.
If he brings back a female demon, will he still be alive?
"no no……"
Squatting down slowly, Xiao Ruge looked at him with a half-smile.
"Whose fault is it for what happened today?"
The sound was so clear and seemed to have no lethality.
But to Zhu Chengxi, it sounded particularly terrifying.
His eyes rolled quickly, and he immediately said, "It's me, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have humiliated you, and I shouldn't have said I'd marry you. I was just joking, don't take it to heart!"
"Oh? It was a joke, then why didn't you say it just now?" Xiao Ruge continued to ask.
"I... the old lady is the one who makes the decisions in the Zhu family. I am a nobody and my words carry no weight. No one would believe me if I said anything."
After swallowing his saliva, Zhu Chengxi said, "But I will do my best to explain the relationship between the two of us. I will never let anyone misunderstand you, and of course I will not marry you. Don't worry!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he swore to the sky.
A man's mouth is deceptive.
Xiao Ruge didn't believe a single word of what he said or the oath he made.
If you want him to really obey you, you need some tricks.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ruge curled the corners of her lips, took out a medicine bag from her arms, and took out a pill from it.
"Eat it."
"This...what is this?"
With fear in his eyes, Zhu Chengxi looked refusal-filled.
"Of course it's a good thing."
The corners of her evil lips slightly raised, and her slender hands pinched his chin.
Xiao Ruge stuffed the pill directly into his mouth and watched him swallow it.
After finishing everything, Xiao Ruge stood up and patted the non-existent dirt on her hands.
"What did you feed me?"
"poison."
Xiao Ruge remained calm, while Zhu Chengxi stared at her in disbelief with eyes wide open.
"Cough cough..." He coughed hard, picked his throat with his hands, and almost vomited.
But the pill had already entered his stomach.
"How dare you drug me! I'm going to tell my grandmother and you'll be in big trouble!"
Zhu Chengxi stumbled to his feet and was about to rush out of the door.
Xiao Ruge stood there unconcerned, and said calmly to his back, "You will die within five steps after leaving this door."
After saying that, he sat directly on the stool.
Zhu Chengxi's movements were a little hesitant and his face was extremely pale.
Is this woman crazy?
He had never seen a woman like Xiao Ruge, she was simply a crazy woman!
"Hermes..."
He thought of countless curse words in his mind and gnashed his teeth in hatred, but he had no choice but to go back obediently.
"How on earth are you going to give me the antidote?"
"I already apologized to you!"
"Give me the antidote and we'll be done with it!"
"If you don't give me the antidote, you won't be able to survive either..."
Before he could finish his words, his body went limp and he fell to his knees.
This scene happened to fall into the eyes of the two people who were peeking.
Duanmu Ling was very excited: "Zhu Chengxi is playing more and more extravagantly."
"Look at him, then look at you. You have been alone for so many years. If I hadn't kept our friendship a secret, I would have been talking about you and me in front of the whole city!"
Before this, there were rumors that the Seventh Prince was homosexual and often stayed out all night, spending time with men.
These are all rumors!
Although the two of them often met late at night, they were innocent and just drank and chatted, but the news was spread like this.
Although I want to explain, I am afraid of what people say.
In desperation, Zhu Chengxi decided not to have any involvement with Mu Gu in front of others.
Mu Gu opened his thin lips slightly and swept his sharp eyes over the two of them.
"I don't think the relationship between them is what you think."
In the yard, Xiao Ruge lowered her eyes, her distinct black and white eyes staring straight at Zhu Chengxi.
He was so frightened that he dared not even breathe.
He just felt sore and weak all over, and even a slight pain was spreading in his joints.
"If you really want to put this matter to rest, you must admit your fault in front of everyone."
As soon as he finished speaking, he added another sentence.
"If there is any way out, then we should perish together!"
She raised an eyebrow, looking nonchalant.
We have all died once, so there is nothing to be afraid of now.
Xiao Mingyue would never get involved with a man she doesn't want.
Zhu Chengxi wanted to say something but stopped himself, but the pain in his body became more and more intense. Looking at Xiao Ruge's thin and frail figure, he inexplicably felt more and more frightened in his heart.
After thinking for a long time, he nodded vigorously.
Xiao Ruge took out a red pill and handed it to him.
"Take this and you'll be able to move freely. Once I've explained everything, I'll give you another antidote. I hope you can make the right choice."
After stuffing the pill into Zhu Chengxi's hand, Xiao Ruge sat on the stone bench.
Zhu Chengxi stuffed the pill into his mouth and ran out the door desperately.
The two people at the door immediately dodged and hid.
Not long after, Zhu Chengxi came with a group of people.
This time, even the unconscious Madam Zhu came.
The guests packed the entire Ronghui Hall.
There was endless discussion, and those people were pointing fingers at Xiao Ruge.
After a long while, Mrs. Zhu said in a deep voice: "Xi'er, you said you have something important to say, what is it?"
The yard became quiet in an instant.
All eyes were directed at him at once. Zhu Chengxi's expression changed and he looked involuntarily at Xiao Ruge.
Xiao Ruge had a calm expression as she sat on the stone bench, as if there was no one else around.
He gritted his teeth unwillingly, but the pain in his body was something he couldn't ignore.
"Madam, today I was rude and offended Miss Xiao."
When these words were spoken, everyone sighed.
That devilish bastard actually admitted his fault?
Could it be that the sun rose from the west today?
Both Old Madam Zhu and Third Madam Zhu widened their eyes.
They have watched Zhu Chengxi grow up since he was a child. When has he ever said anything soft?
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Zhu Chengxi continued, "I have nothing to do with Miss Xiao. I shouldn't have said those nonsense. She hit me because I was mean. She deserved it!"
"Everyone present today, bear witness. I apologize to Miss Xiao. If she forgives me, the matter will be settled. If she doesn't forgive me, I will definitely come to her house to apologize!"
Everyone held their breath and looked at Xiao Ruge in unison.
