Chapter 964 -964: Stirring Up Trouble

Today, Di Yelei was dressed in another set of clothes, a silver-blue outfit that once again showed off his excellent physique to perfection. With the luxurious fabric setting off his figure, his lips curled into a smile, amplifying his roguish charm.

Liu Sisi’s pride welled up within her as she was completely incensed by the disrespect shown by the other party. She sneered coldly, “Do I not even have the right to say ‘no’?”

“You can try and see!”

Young Master Wuxin gave her an icy look and directly took out several pills from his arms, “Swallow these medicines!”

Liu Sisi looked back at him indifferently, her expression sour.

Suddenly, she stretched out her hand and knocked the pills from his hand, looking up at him with arrogance, without saying a word.

“Bastard! Those were made with the last bit of my thousand-year ganoderma. How dare you waste them like this?”

The other party was obviously very angry as well.

Her eyes were filled with serious determination, “Even if I don’t have the right to say no, I still have the right to choose whether I want to live or die!”

Did he think that just because he was handsome and possessed impressive medical skills, he could snap his fingers and get anything he desired? She was not one of those scheming women!

“You… woman! Don’t think you can coerce me, I the Young Master. My patience is not that good!”

Young Master Wuxin indeed erupted in anger, rose from his seat, and once again took a different set of pills from his arms and placed them in front of Liu Sisi, “I advise you to think carefully before you act. Do you plan to eat these yourself, or shall I seal your acupoints with a silver needle and force them down your throat?”

His eyes were foretelling a storm.

Liu Sisi couldn’t help grinding her teeth. Seeing his demeanor, she feared he would truly force her to eat them if she refused.

“Don’t even think about playing tricks, I the Young Master, will save the person I intend to save, even if the King of Hell himself were to appear, I would still snatch them back!” The warning in his eyes deepened as she remained motionless.

“Despicable! Scoundrel, bastard!”

Liu Sisi spat out the words through clenched teeth before abruptly grabbing the pills from the plate and throwing them into her mouth, coughing violently.

True to his name, Wuxin! He didn’t even flinch, calmly watching her coughing fit continue.

“I the Young Master have always been heartless. So, I advise you not to struggle in vain,” said Young Master Wuxin, pouring oil on the fire before he got up and left the room.

“Bastard! Damn it!”

Liu Sisi kicked out in anger, treating the leg of the table as the detestable figure, and gave it a heavy kick, the frustration in her heart indescribable.

“Yikes! Ah, it hurts… it hurts so much…”

She had kicked directly into the leg of the table, grimacing in pain.

Not only was she unable to inform Granny Peng that she was still alive, but Liu Sisi also felt more and more despondent as it was unclear who had poisoned her.

It looked like she needed to think of a way to escape from here first!

–

While Liu Sisi was desperately seeking ways to escape, several groups of people were scouring Wanzhou and Hezhou Prefecture in search of her whereabouts.

Among these search parties, besides those from Di Yelei, there were also people secretly sent by Old He, and another force was dispatched by His Majesty himself. They had turned several towns upside down, yet still could not find any trace of Liu Sisi.

Granny Peng was also looking for Liu Sisi.

After returning from working at the wharf, she discovered that Liu Sisi had disappeared. Coincidentally, the bean-curd making woman next door, who bragged about how someone had come asking for her during the daytime and had rewarded a silver ingot just for making a move, also mentioned that Liu Sisi had changed her clothes and left the house, which gave Granny Peng a direction to look for her.

Granny Peng had long heard that the Imperial Envoy and his party were looking for a beautiful woman and had also heard about the horsemen from the bean-curd making woman. After waiting to no avail for Liu Sisi’s return, she secretly learned that the Imperial Envoy’s people were staying in the hostel and went there to wait for them to emerge from their burrow.

But nowadays, the hostel was hosting the Imperial Envoy and the Prince, and the main entrance was watched over by countless eyes, both openly and in secret. So, as soon as Granny Peng appeared, she was immediately spotted by the disguised watchmen in front of the hostel.

After spending three days on stakeout in front of the hostel without a glimpse of Liu Sisi, Granny Peng did not give up and leave but came even earlier each day to keep watch.

The weather was particularly bad at present, with intermittent snowfall on two occasions. In the morning, icicles hung from the eaves and under the roof, and even the branches of big trees were no exception. Breathing out produced a puff of white mist, shivering from the cold.

Granny Peng stomped her feet that had lost all sensation and, seeing that it was getting late, she was about to turn back home when the governmental office, which had been closed for several days, finally opened.

Old He couldn’t stand being cooped up in the hostel any longer!

Using the excuse of needing a stroll, he left the hostel, planning to check the liaison point ahead to see if his useless subordinates had made any meaningful captures. Just as he stepped out the door, he sensed an odd gaze upon him.

“Miracle Doctor He, are you planning to go out?”

The Post-house Ministers on duty at both sides of the hostel promptly bowed and scraped.

“Isn’t it obvious that I’m going out? The food tonight was delicious, and I couldn’t help but eat an extra half bowl. I’m worried about indigestion, so I’m taking a walk.”

Old He casually made up an excuse, glancing subtly in the direction of the strange gaze, but found nothing.

“Would you like us to prepare a horse for you, Miracle Doctor He?” The Post-house Ministers eagerly tried to flatter him.

“No need, I will just take a short walk nearby.”

Having said that, Old He slowly moved away.

Walking along the street in front of the hostel, he moved forward at a leisurely pace. Due to the cold weather and the approaching dusk, pedestrians on the road were hurried and didn’t linger.

He, however, strolled casually as if he owned the streets, walking on the main road. The snowflakes in the sky seemed to grow larger, and the air became even colder. Yet, he seemed utterly unaffected, moving gradually toward more desolate areas, with whoever was tailing him showing no sign of retreat.

His gaze hardened into a fierce expression as he entered the dead end of an alleyway and abruptly turned around. His usual gentleness vanished, his voice filled with a murderous intent.

“Friend, since you’ve come, there’s no need to hide any longer. Come out quickly!”

After a moment, a light chuckle emanated from ahead: “Miracle Doctor He truly is extraordinary. So many years have passed, and your abilities have only grown stronger. It’s made Little Sister afraid to even come out and acknowledge you.”

The other person was laughing, yet Old He was on full alert, eyeing a certain place where the voice was coming from.

“Who is it? Come out!”

“Miracle Doctor He is as impressive as ever. Not a word out of place; you really do put Little Sister in awe. I just wonder if tomorrow’s fellow eater will still be around.”

As she finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared not far ahead, revealing the weathered old face of Granny Peng.
