I don’t know if it was Su Shizhi’s illusion, but when he stood up, he felt dizzy.

So he sat down again.

Xu Jiaoxue, who was sitting opposite Su Shizhi, looked at Su Shizhi quietly.

Su Shizhi frowned and looked at Xu Jiaoxue. He felt something was wrong.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I told you to go and rest, didn't you hear me?"

Xu Jiaoxue didn't move. She took out the teacup that Su Shizhi had just handed to her.

"I didn't drink the tea that Sir gave me just now."

Just now, Xu Jiaoxue just made a gesture of drinking tea.

Su Shizhi obviously didn't think Xu Jiaoxue would have any doubts about this cup of tea.

So I didn't look carefully to see whether Xu Jiaoxue drank the tea in the cup.

Su Shizhi ignored his increasingly dizzy head.

He rested his elbows on the table, hunched over, trying to keep himself alert, his whole body covered in cold sweat.

Su Shizhi said to Xu Jiaoxue in a cold voice,

"What do you mean?"

Xu Jiaoxue put the cup in her hand on the table.

"I should ask you, sir, what do you mean by this?"

"After drinking your tea, sir, why do I have no recollection of it?"

No matter how soundly a person sleeps, he or she will always remember some details before falling asleep.

But Xu Jiaoxue's memory only stopped at yesterday in the study, before she drank Su Shi's cup of tea.

Drops of cold sweat fell from Su Shizhi's forehead.

He didn't answer Xu Jiaoxue, but just stared at her.

Perhaps because he was too dizzy, Su Shizhi shook his head.

"Did you put something in my tea?"

Xu Jiaoxue smiled with her lips curved:

"Look, it's such an obvious thing, what are you thinking, sir? You actually want to hide it from me."

"I came from a brothel. How could I be unaware of what happened to me?"

Including the knockout drug that Su Shizhi gave Xu Jiaoxue, Xu Jiaoxue was actually very familiar with it.

In a low-class place like a brothel, there is always a shortage of things like knockout drugs.

The knockout drug that Xu Jiaoxue gave Su Shizhi this time was obtained from his old customer.

This thing is not rare.

She just didn't expect at first that a literary scholar like Su Shizhi would actually do such a lowly thing.

Xu Jiaoxue looked at Su Shizhi with a smile on her face.

As I laughed, I couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Xu Jiaoxue raised her fingers and wiped away the tears of laughter.

"Actually, sir, you don't have to do this."

"Sir, you should know that I used to work in a brothel."

"If you need anything, please tell me. I will help you."

"Whatever Zhou Mingzhu can do for you, I can do as well. But sir, why do you treat me like this?"

She didn't give Su Shi much knockout drug.

Xu Jiaoxue controlled the dosage of the medicine, making Su Shizhi dizzy and weak, but not causing him to completely lose consciousness.

Su Shizhi stared at Xu Jiaoxue intently, and was now covered in sweat.

"You already know it, so let's talk about it."

"I saw everything you did with your mistress while I was recovering from my injuries."

"You are so brave! You actually dare to do such a shameful thing right under my nose!"

"You and your mistress were the ones who plotted against me first!"

He growled at Xu Jiaoxue in a low voice, his eyes filled with hatred.

"You and Liu Jie treat me like a fool. What I hate most in my life is people who treat me like a fool."

When he was in the northern border, he had had enough of such humiliation.

Although all the poor children in the world knew Su Shizhi, scholars admired his literary talent.

But Su Shizhi's reputation is worthless in the eyes of officials in the northern border.

They even took pleasure in stepping on Su Shizhi's face with their noble feet and rubbing his face hard.

Even one of the things they enjoyed doing most was to write a popular poem or some brilliant article whenever Su Shizhi was in the bitter cold land of the northern border.

They would humiliate Su Shizhi severely.

It seemed as if it was a very pleasant thing for them to see the role models of the world's literati being humiliated like a dog in their hands.

Over the years, officials in the northern border have never tired of humiliating and teasing Su Shizhi.

"Zhou Mingzhu always thought she had paid a lot, but what she suffered was the deepest humiliation."

Su Shizhi said this while staggering, laughing miserably.

"No, Zhou Mingzhu doesn't understand at all. The real humiliation falls on me."

"I am a man, I am a reader."

"But in Northern Xinjiang, I'm worse than a dog!"

Su Shizhi almost roared the last sentence.

He was shaking all over and wanted to exert force, but the Mongolian medicine made him weak all over!

"Everyone looks down on me. Even people like you and Liu Jie dare to bully me now."

Su Shizhi looked at Xu Jiaoxue as if he wanted to kill her.

"Who the hell do you think you are, bitch? How dare you betray me with someone like Liu Jie?"

Xu Jiaoxue smiled with some despair,

"Betrayal? Perhaps it is a betrayal to you, sir, but I regard you as my only salvation."

Who wants to live in a puddle of mud?

Even Su Jiaoxue was unwilling.

She was able to find Su Shizhi just to get away from Liu Jie and her previous muddy life.

Xu Jiaoxue really intends to be a good wife to Su Shizhi.

She just couldn't get rid of Liu Jie temporarily.

But as long as she has a certain amount of power and wealth, she will cut off everything related to Liu Jie.

Su Shizhi did not give her this opportunity.

Su Shizhi is like Xu Jiaoxue's father.

She had just emerged from a quagmire.

Su Shizhi personally pushed her into another quagmire.

Su Shizhi said she hated Xu Jiaoxue's bullying.

The same goes for Xu Jiaoxue.

At this time, the sound of carriages and horses was heard outside the yard, and the sky gradually darkened.

Someone knocked on the yard door.

He is the one who is going to sleep with Xu Jiaoxue tonight.

"Su Shizhi, open the door quickly."

The people outside were shouting loudly, not caring at all about the strange looks from their neighbors.

Xu Jiaoxue's face was pale, and she looked at Su Shizhi in despair.

"Sir, that's not how you do it."

"Every profession has its own rules. Even though I'm a whore, I still have my own rules."

Xu Jiaoxue stood up, holding the candlestick in her hand, and slowly lit the curtains and clothes around her.

"Sir, when I came out of that brothel, I swore that I would never go back there again."

"The master has treated me like the lowest of dogs. I have no other hope."

"Then let's die together."
