Chapter 364 - Drugged
Chapter 364: Drugged
As a woman, Yun Xiangxiang had to say that they were problematic creatures, and some problems were tougher than others.
Any normal woman wouldn’t make a fuss if her man gave her enough security and avoided any unnecessary contact with the opposite sex in day-to-day life.
Song Mian gave her that sense of security, the greatest respect, and the most meticulous care.
If Yun Xiangxiang still threw a tantrum whenever a random woman who liked him popped up, even Yun Xiangxiang would hate herself.
Song Mian wasn’t just excellent to Yun Xiangxiang; he was the best,
Tang Suran envied the bright and smiling Yun Xiangxiang when Song Mian was mentioned.
She stopped talking about this with Yun Xiangxiang, and they started talking about books, but Yun Xiangxiang didn’t read as many books as Tang Suran did.
Tang Suran was a detail-oriented person. Whenever they talked about what Yun Xiangxiang didn’t know, she could notice it quickly and divert the topic.
They chatted happily, and it didn’t take long for the Tang family’s servant to serve the snacks and tea. Yun Xiangxiang looked at the door in puzzlement.
She had been here for more than an hour, and Song Mian should have been done with the checkup, since it was only Master Tang, so why wasn’t he?
Noticing Yun Xiangxiang’s confusion, Tang Suran explained, “Young Master Song would have to do acupuncture for grandpa and Zhili, so he will take around two hours.”
No wonder he asked me to wait out here. Since acupuncture requires the patient to take off their clothes, so he wanted to avoid that, but he also didn’t want me to be bored.
Since that was the case, Yun Xiangxiang immersed herself in books, while Tang Suran read with her. They were quiet and said nothing, but they got along well.
“Miss Suran, Second Miss is back,” a servant stood at the doorstep and called Tang Suran.
Tang Suran stood up and told Yun Xiangxiang, “My second cousin is a great person. I’ll take you to see her…”
“Miss Suran,” the servant called her before Suran could finish.
Tang Suran thought the servant was acting weird, but she didn’t want Yun Xiangxiang to be worried. “What’s with the mystery?”
The servant looked at Yun Xiangxiang uncomfortably, and she pulled Tang Suran aside. “The second miss’ face is injured, and her eyes are swollen…”
Tang Suran was awkward, and she looked at Yun Xiangxiang apologetically. “I’ll go take a look. You can read through the books here.”
“Sure.” This was their family matters, and there might be some dirty laundry involved. If Yun Xiangxiang butted in, they would feel that she was going along to see their family’s embarrassment.
Yun Xiangxiang went back to read the books after Tang Suran left. She looked up and rested her eyes after every twenty minutes or so, taking a bite out of the snack and sipping the tea before she continued reading.
Tang Suran had left, but there were servants there, and whenever they saw Yun Xiangxiang’s cup being empty, they would leave quietly and refill the cup for her, just like how waiters would do.
Yun Xiangxiang would thank them every time, and this time was no exception. After she took a sip and was ready to continue reading, she felt that something was wrong, as she was slowly losing her strength.
Her legs were turning into jelly, and her breathing became hot and heavy as a small flame started erupting from her abdomen.
Yun Xiangxiang was no naive girl, so she knew someone spiked her tea with aprodisiac when she noticed this reaction.
She felt incredulous, as someone actually drugged her in the Tang residence, right under Song Mian’s nose.
She looked outside quickly, and she noticed the servant who was standing sentry was gone.
“Ah Mian…” Yun Xiangxiang wanted to call Ah Mian, but she noticed that her voice was weak and seductive.
She felt her body getting emptier as the heat kept on rising, but she didn’t dare to drink from the cup of tea to cool herself down.
Who drugged me? Tang Suran’s not the culprit. Yun Xiangxiang wasn’t blindly trusting Tang Suran after meeting her once.
If Tang Suran wanted to attack her, she wouldn’t do it on her turf. If Yun Xiangxiang got into trouble here, the first one to have to explain would be Tang Suran.
Her consciousness was getting blurrier, and to make things worse, Yun Xiangxiang heard a voice she didn’t want to. “Ranran!”
It was Tang Zhiyu. Tang Zhiyu didn’t know Tang Suran wasn’t here, so who led him here?
If she bumped into Tang Zhiyu now, he wouldn’t resist her if she threw herself at him.
Even if Tang Zhiyu did the deed with her, he could say that he was saving her, since he wasn’t the one who drugged her, and Yun Xiangxiang threw herself onto him first.
Yun Xiangxiang chomped down on her hand and sobered herself up with pain. She wanted to move, but her legs had no strength.
Tang Zhiyu had come in, and he saw Yun Xiangxiang, but only her back, so he didn’t notice that something was off with her. “Miss Yun?”
“Don’t come near!” Yun Xiangxiang’s hoarse voice sounded weak and charming.
Tang Zhiyu stopped in his tracks, and a murderous intent welled up in his eyes. Which idiot is trying to backstab me with this? Don’t they know I hate aphrodisiacs the most?
Unlike how the mastermind thought, he went out instead of going forward, and he took his phone out to call someone.
Yun Xiangxiang bit into her skin, and when one part lost its feeling, she would bite another part to keep herself sober. Worried someone might come and hurt Yun Xiangxiang, Tang Zhiyu stood outside and guarded her.
As he saw Yun Xiangxiang’s behavior through the glass window, he remembered the situation he was in back then. It was more than ten years ago, and he was only twelve back then.
That animal wanted to destroy him, and if it wasn’t because Tang Zhiyu met Song Chi by chance, his life would be…
That soul-crushing pain was more unbearable than suffering any kind of torture, and to make things worse, he was surrounded by people, so he couldn’t embarrass himself. He stabbed his thigh again and again with a sharp object, keeping himself sober with extreme pain.
Yun Xiangxiang was luckier than he did, as Song Mian came quickly.
His gaze was darkly sharp, and he rushed inside after glancing at Tang Zhiyu.
Yun Xiangxiang was on the brink of collapse, as she felt that the fire within her was going to burn her up. She didn’t even have the strength to bite herself now.
Song Mian’s hand touched her under this circumstance, and she wanted to struggle, as she didn’t realize that was Song Mian.
This reflexive self-defense broke Song Mian’s heart, and he forcefully pinned her down and caught her wrist, glaring coldly at the cup beside Yun Xiangxiang.
“Scram,” Song Mian ordered icily.
Tang Zhiyu wasn’t going to fight with him over this. When he saw Song Mian taking Yun Xiangxiang and putting her on the desk, Tang Zhiyu left Tang Suran’s yard.
As this matter took place in the Tang residence, he had to investigate this, since he was the head of the family, at least on the surface.
He too wanted to know who had the audacity to use this method to sabotage him.
