Chapter 203.1 - Committing suicide as atonement
Yue Ji could only leave two hours afterwards.
When she arrived at Leng Yichen’s leisure boat, she changed her clothes and covered her face, bending down on one knee before Leng Yichen, “Manor master!”
“Who was that?”
“Apparently he’s a rich businessman from Xiliang country but Yue Ji saw the jade pendant on his waist, it seemed to be the auspicious dragon jade pendant that is exclusive to Xiliang country’s princes, there is also a ‘Bai’ word engraved on it.”
Leng Yichen became silent, turning to face Lou Qingwu, “Can you guess who he is?”
Lou Qingwu’s eyes narrowed, she didn’t seem to remember anyone else from Xiliang country arriving apart from Xiliang country’s third princess and prince.
It seems like this person must have sneaked in.
She thought for a moment before silently reciting his name, Xiao Mubai, Xiliang … Mubai.
“En?” Lou Qingwu’s thought, “Could it be Xiliang country’s fifth prince?”
After speaking, she seemed to have thought of something as she smirked at Leng Yichen, “So, it’s your brother in law.”
Leng Yichen’s face turned purple as he glared at Lou Qingwu.
He threateningly knocked against the table, “I heard that the Number One Jinsi building is expecting a shipment of cloud satin from Jiangzhun, from sea. I don’t know if someone decided to snatch it, would you have to compensate people to the point of having to give them blood?”
“Then, on the second day, tea houses on both sides of the Yangtze river would suddenly spread a salacious story, it goes something like this: A certain rich man’s fiancee decided to run into another man’s arms, as she decided between the importance of money or love.”
“You … hateful!” Leng Yichen silently turned away.
He suddenly regretted coming here to complain to her, why did he choose to come to this woman to complain?
He was just asking for pain.
On the other side, Yue Ji tried her hardest to pretend to be invisible.
After the two people finished bickering pettily, she couldn’t help but speak, “Manor master, if the fifth prince discovers that it’s Miss Lou who poisoned him, would it be troublesome?”
“It’s fine, even if he decides to investigate, he’ll only find a gentleman Mu. He won’t find anything else.”
As long as Lou Qingwu decided to make a move, she definitely would have a clean getaway plan in place.
Around midnight Xiliang Mubai suddenly jumped down from his bed, his face as dark and scary as King Yama.
The concubine on his bed reached for the satin covers to cover her body, her enchanting eyes looking towards Xiliang Mubai, “Fifth prince, what’s wrong?”
“Go away!” He coldly spat out, scaring the concubine.
Seeing his cold face, she didn’t dare to stay any longer as she quickly put on her clothes and ran outside.
When she closed the door behind her, Xiliang Mubai grabbed a gown to cover himself and shouted coldly, “Get in here!”
Xiliang Mubai’s words fell as a voodoo doctor immediately bent down half way and hurried inside, kneeling before Xiliang Mubai.
“Young master, is something wrong?”
“Take a look for me!”
After two hours, the voodoo doctor’s face changed a few times before suddenly kowtowing to the ground.
“Young master, please let me live, I am useless!”
“Exactly what happened to me?!” Xiliang Mubai kicked him and made him roll on the ground. “Stop talking nonsense, quickly say exactly what’s wrong!”
“Young master has been poisoned.”
“Poisoned?” His mind suddenly flashed to the glass of wine that he’d drunk on the boat.
His face completely darkened.
Damn it, he fell for that man’s trick!
“The other person seems to be an expert in poisons, it is scentless and tasteless. This servant deserves to die!” This counted as neglecting his duty.
If it was his master and not his young master in front of him, he’d probably already be dead.
“Can you concoct an antidote?”
“This … would need at least a month.”
“What?!” Xiliang Mubai kicked him to the side again. “You dare to even think of leaving me like this for a month?! I don’t care, if you can’t get an antidote in 5 days, you can kill yourself in atonement!”
“What?!” Xiliang Mubai kicked him to the side again. “You dare to even think of leaving me like this for a month?! I don’t care, if you can’t get an antidote in 5 days, you can kill yourself in atonement!”

TL note:
Xiliang Mubai is so lazy with his disguise.

Ehh...he loves s*x so much that he doesn't care if the antidote isn't perfect just to bring his weapon back to normal :/
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same lol. And duh! Life for his s*x drive, what an a-hole. If I were the voodoo doctor and I couldn't make an antidote within 5 days, I'll just make a poison that could instantly kill him. He is about to die by his order better take the person with him.
DeleteOh and thanks for the chapter Soupy!(~￣³￣)~
He's a typical playboy with no real duties 😪😪
DeleteBut, he does have guards with him so it wouldn't be too easy to kill him 🔪🔪
DeleteI still find it really amusing that he probably sneaked in just to find some different women and now that he's offended one of them, he's probably stuck without being able to get what he wants until he's forced to go back hahahaha.
ReplyDeleteReally feels like karma~
He deserved it 😤😤
