I insist

Chapter 408: Poisoning

"You really don't know what a lesson is."

"Please explain clearly, Young Master Yu. I am too foolish to understand your meaning."

Hearing Liuli's words, Yu Huailin's face grew even more unpleasant. He opened his mouth several times but ultimately remained silent, instead looking away with a detached gaze.

It's not that he doesn't want to get rid of the person, but the more he pays attention to them, the more energetic they become, and he doesn't want to deal with it that way.

But to Yu Huailin's surprise, Liuli was unyielding and wouldn't listen to reason. She even knelt on the ground and didn't stay still, pulling out all the small knives that he had stuck into the ground and placing them aside.

He no longer wanted those things, but then he thought about how much material his dagger had used, and his face darkened again.

"Liuli knows that it was her own selfishness that caused the two adults to end up like this, and that she is so guilty that she can only pay for it with her death."

"If you're going to die, don't die in front of my mansion."

Upon hearing this, Liuli's already red eyes widened even further, and tears fell to the ground.

Her tearful appearance caused many people who were unaware of the situation to stop and look at the online class picture to see which heartless man would lay a hand on such a weak woman.

Noticing the change in many people's attitudes, Yu Huailin was even more reluctant to let the woman in front of him get close to Song Miqiu again.

It's not that I can't handle it, but it's too troublesome, and I don't want her to be exhausted.

But when she thought of Song Miqiu's most likely choice, she looked at Liuli, who was still oblivious to her fate, with pity once again.

“Tell your stepfather that my choice will not change. Even if you commit suicide at my doorstep, I will only throw your body into the wilderness and into the belly of wolves.”

"Young Master Yu, Liuli truly knows she was wrong. Her stepfather has worked tirelessly for you, and even if he hasn't done anything meritorious, he has certainly put in the effort. To abandon someone halfway through the journey is simply too much..."

"Too much? If he's dissatisfied, he can send someone directly to me. You don't need to come."

Yu Huailin's tone grew increasingly cold, and he directly ordered the guards to throw the person onto the carriage.

Unexpectedly, this happened, and Liuli was even more depressed. She wanted to jump off the carriage and say a few more words to the people, but then she heard the sound of iron piercing wood.

"what!"

"If you want to live, don't mess with us again, or next time it won't be your hair, it will be your head."

Hearing Yu Huailin's cold words, Liuli's tears, which were already difficult to control, flowed uncontrollably.

But no one paid any attention to this action, and the carriage quickly fled as if it were running away.

"Miss, please don't cry. We can't afford to offend Yu Huailin."

"Can't afford to offend them? If it weren't for Song Miqiu, this wouldn't have happened at all."

Liuli lowered her voice and let out a low growl, then her eyes became even more gloomy, completely placing all the humiliation on Song Miqiu.

Every time she thought about how Yu Huailin had defended others, her resentment intensified, and she could even feel a sweet taste in her throat, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Fortunately, at the last moment, she suddenly covered her mouth with her hand and swallowed it with difficulty.

It's all because of her.

If it weren't for Song Miqiu, there would have been no such slap, and he wouldn't have been punished like this.

Thinking back to what had just happened, Liuli was still shaken and couldn't help but look at those slender hands.

"No, we must get rid of him, otherwise he will never have a place for me in his eyes."

Without hesitation, Liuli's eyes sharpened, and she glared fiercely at the coachman.

Although they were following through a door, the other person still felt a chill and nervously looked ahead, gripping the reins even tighter, which made the carriage speed up again.

Liuli was still thinking about something, her brows furrowed, when she finally pushed the door open and looked at the coachman with icy eyes.

"Miss? Is there something you need?"

"I won't go today, I'll go straight to the palace."

Although the driver didn't know the reason, he didn't want to know more even if he could.

He sent the person directly to the palace and then did not move, carefully waiting for Liuli to come out.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, his smile grew even wider, but as he approached the Imperial Hospital, he suddenly smelled another odor.

If they kill her like this, the blame will definitely fall on her, and then there will be no chance at all.

After figuring out what to do, Liuli turned around and headed towards the Imperial Kitchen, which was farther away but more crowded.

Looking at the various stoves labeled with their different attributes, she walked forward without making a sound, and as she passed the Imperial Hospital, she made a slight movement towards the inside.

"Why did Miss Liuli suddenly come here?"

"Nothing much, I just wanted to come over for a walk."

Hearing this, the staff of the Imperial Kitchen showed no dissatisfaction, nodded, and then went back to their work.

After Liuli left, another figure also quickly left.

When the concubine, who was resting in her room, heard the news from her servant, she sat up abruptly, but quickly fell back onto the bed.

"Master, should we replace the items directly?"

After all, it's not easy for the master to have someone to talk to again, and losing that would cause a lot of trouble.

But to everyone's surprise, the concubine simply waved her hand, showing an indifferent expression.

Happiness didn't understand why the Demon Consort suddenly stopped moving. She looked to the side in confusion, but then she remembered that this was her master's business and she couldn't say anything carelessly. So she could only nod and stand obediently in place.

But seemingly sensing the doubt in the other person's heart, she frowned slightly and sighed again after a long while.

"Don't you understand her identity? Or do you think someone knows better than her how to avoid that poison?"

"Your Majesty is right. If Physician Song can't even tell the difference between such a small amount of medicine, then there is a serious problem."

But contrary to what she said, she couldn't help but frown and lower her eyes to look at her even more slender fingers.

The fingers, which were neatly trimmed and rounded, suddenly pierced the palm of the hand, drawing out drops of blood.

The man sensed something was wrong and felt danger, but in the end, he looked away and turned to the other side.

Only after the demon concubine withdrew her hand did she carefully place a pure white handkerchief on the ground, soak it in ointment, and bandage it up.

"My lady..."

"I'm fine. I was just so focused on something that I forgot my nails had grown long."

"How about I trim it a little for you?"

Not hearing a response, the palace maid still picked up the file that was placed aside and trimmed the nails to make them even more rounded.

Although I said I wouldn't help, it would be such a waste to do absolutely nothing.

The enchantress pondered for a moment, then revealed a smile.

"Since she dared to do this, we should just give her a taste of her own medicine."

"Miss?"

"How come you're still so stupid after following me for so long?"

The palace maid dared not utter a sound, but knelt on the ground and carefully apologized.
