After being abandoned, Tofu Xishi broke off the relationship

Chapter 145: You have done me such harm, I will not forgive you

Su He's pupils shrank suddenly. "Four... four days ago?"

"How could that be? I just took a short nap."

Su Ruanruan looked at Su He for a long time with a complicated expression, then looked at Bai Bai blankly, "Sir, what is she doing..."

Bai Bai waved his hand at her, "You can leave first."

Su Ruanruan thanked him quickly, got up from the ground and hid in the crowd again.

She always felt like someone was staring at her, as if trying to see through her.

Su Runrun glanced at the crowd, only to find that it was Huo Yan who was looking at her with a half-smile.

Su Ruanruan rolled her eyes and turned her gaze to the hall.

"Su He, do you have anything else to say?"

"Sir, I don't know what happened. I just took a nap and when I woke up I found... I found him in my bed..."

Zeng Yuan couldn't see Su He, but he could recognize her voice. He didn't care about the image he had maintained before, and cursed, "Su He, you accepted the jade pendant I bought, and you invited me to your house, you can't deny it. What are you pretending to be? Did you see a ghost?"

"You have hurt me like this, I will never forgive you."

Su He, "What jade pendant? I didn't see it, let alone take it."

Bai Bai waved his hand, and the bailiff presented the jade pendant. Bai Bai took it in his hand and asked, "Su He, do you recognize it?"

Su He took a closer look and recognized the jade pendant. She glanced at Su Ruanruan in the crowd with a guilty conscience and said, "I have seen this jade pendant before, but I didn't have enough money, so I didn't buy it."

Bai Bai, "You didn't buy it yourself, but someone bought it for you. The owner and the clerk of the jade shop saw with their own eyes that Zeng Yuan gave the jade pendant to the man with the veil, and that person was you."

"With my own eyes? No, no, you must have made a mistake. The one wearing the veil could be someone else, but why must it be me? I have been to the jade shop, but I just asked about the price."

Bai Bai, "At this point, if you are still quibbling, I will call the relevant witnesses to the court. The facts are as solid as a mountain. Let's see how you can deny it."

Soon, the owner and clerk of the jade shop, as well as Aunt Li and the blacksmith from the same courtyard as Su He were all brought over.

Bai Bai pointed at the owner of the jade shop and said, "I want to ask you, how can you be sure that the woman wearing the veil is Su He who is kneeling in the hall?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Su He and said, "She came to ask about this jade pendant a few days ago. Suddenly, a little beggar appeared in the shop. When she was trying to chase him out, the little beggar used the stick in his hand to knock off the veil on her head."

"I and my shop assistant saw her appearance. Later, she came again and asked me to sell her the jade pendant with green flower and butterfly leaf at a lower price. I am also a small business owner and didn't make much money. She was not rich, so I chased her out. But I met Mr. Zeng, who was a frequent customer of the shop. He was the one who bought the jade pendant and gave it to the girl personally."

"The girl also said that she wanted to invite Master Zeng to her home for a chat. This was the first time I saw the girl's full appearance. The second time, although her true face was hidden behind a veil, her voice was clear and distinct. I couldn't have made a mistake in what I heard."

"Oh, by the way, when this girl came to the store for the second time, she met Captain Huo. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."

The waiter also nodded rapidly.

Bai Bai glanced and said, "Huo Yan, have you seen Su He in the jade shop?"

Huo Yan glanced at Su Ruanruan calmly and said slowly, "I saw a girl wearing a veil in a jade shop, but I asked her to take it off, but she refused to do so. I am not sure if it was this girl."

Bai Bai, "..."

"Are you hard of hearing? You can't tell the difference even though you can't see his face but hear his voice?"

"Forget it. It doesn't matter whether you have evidence or not. Many people have seen Su He wearing a veil hat and selling steamed buns on the street these days. They can all confirm that this person is Su He."

Bai Bai slammed the gavel again, "Ms. Li and the blacksmith, have you seen Su He in the past few days?"

"Reply... reply to your question, I have seen her... of course I have seen her. She goes out early and comes back late every day, but she sets up the stall earlier than usual."

"Then do you know why she opened the stall earlier?"

"Your Excellency, I asked her and she said she wanted to save enough money to buy something."

Bai Bai asked again, "Do you know what it is?"

"I don't know."

Su He was shocked. "Auntie, how can you accuse me so easily? I clearly did nothing. Why did everything change after I woke up after just sleeping?"

"We live in the same courtyard after all. How can you make up stories like an outsider and wrongly accuse me?"

"I haven't wronged you, just say something." Aunt Li pushed the blacksmith beside her.

The blacksmith looked at Su He for several times, "You...what's wrong with you? You don't remember anything that happened in the past few days?"

"The meat that Li and I ate last night was given to us by you. How could you have forgotten?"

"You really don't remember? This young man went to your room with a food box and gave us the food you bought since you couldn't use it."

Su He had a splitting headache. She... why couldn't she remember anything?

Is that really her they are talking about?

Bai Bai, "Coroner."

The coroner stepped forward and said, "Sir, we have checked the wine and food. We found no aphrodisiac in the wine, but we did find aphrodisiac in the braised beef."

Su Ruanruan, "..."

Oh my goodness, she thought Zeng Yuan would put something in the drinks, but she didn't know it was actually food? !

Fortunately I didn’t eat that bite of braised beef last night, otherwise I would have been in big trouble.

Fortunately, the poison doctor was very skilled and the poison he used was so effective that even the coroner couldn't detect it.

"Zeng Yuan, you provided the food and wine, and now that aphrodisiacs have been found in them, what do you have to say?"

"I don't know. This wine and food was prepared by my followers. I really don't know what's in it. After I took a sip of the wine, I passed out."

Bai Bai was thoughtful, "Oh? You mean there is a drug in this wine? And you don't know there is aphrodisiac in the braised beef?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zeng Yuan's body was already ruined, and he felt both pain and anger.

He couldn't imagine that after being so smart all his life, he would fall into the hands of a woman.

He could no longer see, and everything in front of him was dark. But even so, he could still hear the laughter outside the hall.

"That's nonsense. The coroner has checked and found aphrodisiac in the dish, but nothing in the wine. The evidence is here, and you still want to deny it?"

"Don't even think about asking your follower to take the blame for you. From what I understand, he still owes money to the gambling house. His monthly salary is used to pay off the debt to your gambling house. He can't afford the aphrodisiac in the dish at all."

"The coroner also found no traces of aphrodisiac on Su He and you."

"It can only be determined that Su He did not eat the braised beef, and you were too impatient. You can't eat hot tofu if you are impatient."

"In my opinion, your fainting was fake, but you forcibly pushed Su He down. She didn't obey you, so she stabbed you with a dagger! Is that right?"

"It's unfair, sir!" Zeng Yuan cried out.

The case was still under trial, but Su Runrun could not stay any longer. She could clearly feel that Huo Yan's deep gaze was always locked on her.

She lost interest in listening any further, so she left the yamen and went to the tofu shop.

On the way, someone blocked the way.
