The Poisonous Consort, the Regent's Beloved

"What are you doing here again?"

Su Fuying asked bluntly. Fortunately, she didn't have these feudal ideas and didn't think that having a man enter her room was a loss of her innocence, otherwise she would have drowned herself long ago.

Lu Yanxiu's gaze lingered on her face for a long time. Just as Su Fuying was getting impatient, he finally looked away, cleared his throat, and said, "Of course I have something to tell you."

"explain."

Su Fuying didn't think there was anything good about him coming to see her, so she walked straight up to him, poured a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

Ignoring the man's gloomy gaze, she picked up a medical book and began to read it.

This was a gift from Gu Qibai, and it contained records of many rare herbs that she had never seen before, which she found very interesting.

After turning two pages of the book, Lu Yanxiu finally spoke: "I received a letter yesterday. More than ten years ago, a family was looking for a baby girl."

Is this really important business? Hearing that it concerned her, Su Fuying put down the book in her hand, looked up to meet the man's gaze, and waited for him to continue.

The man tapped his well-defined index finger on the solid wood table casually, his gaze fixed on Su Fuying's chest.

Following his gaze, she looked down and saw that her white dress was soaked with water, revealing half of her cleavage.

Under his gaze, even the usually indifferent Su Fuying couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She reached up and pulled her clothes up slightly, saying in an unnatural tone, "Are you a pervert? Breaking into girls' rooms every night, do you want to become a womanizer?"

Lu Yanxiu chuckled lightly, a rare occurrence for him, his voice tinged with languor, "I wouldn't even consider your two ounces of flesh."

"whispering sound."

Su Fuying rolled her eyes. "Serves you right for being a virgin at your age."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Fuying clearly felt the gaze falling on her head gradually turn cold, but she felt no fear whatsoever.

"What, you think you can criticize me but I can't criticize you? Don't try to act like a domineering CEO with me."

Lu Yanxiu didn't know what "domineering president" meant, but he guessed it wasn't a good term.

However, he casually withdrew his gaze, his tone returning to its previous languidness, "That family must be quite powerful; they secretly investigated them without anyone knowing."

"As for who it is, we need to investigate things from more than ten years ago. Given the circumstances at the time, more than ten years later, that person is probably rich and powerful now. Go to the palace and see who looks like you. That person is your parent. That will save me from wasting any more time."

This was the first time Su Fuying had ever heard this person speak so much in one breath, and she was a little surprised. Why did she always feel that something was different after that night?

I couldn't quite put my finger on what was wrong, but then I suddenly noticed the meaning behind his words.

"You want me to recognize your parents by their faces? Are you crazy or am I crazy?"

After saying it, she regretted saying it again. She had just confronted him, and now she was afraid of angering him again.

Lu Yanxiu stood up and prepared to leave, which surprised Su Fuying even more, but she didn't say anything.

He took the cup, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a small sip. Just then, the man turned around and saw this scene. Suddenly, an indescribable look appeared in his calm and unwavering eyes.

Being stared at like that by him made me feel a little uneasy. Was he crazy?

At this moment, the man slowly turned around and walked step by step to the front.

With a languid voice and a hint of pleasure, she said, "It's Miss Ren's birthday in a few days. They will definitely send you an invitation, but you declined."

Su Fuying was puzzled. Why invite Ren Yinxue to her birthday party? She was the one who carried out the assassination attempt last time. Was he inviting her to do it again?

"Why?"

The man looked down at her as if she were an idiot, saying, "You'll only eat and not grow? I have business to attend to tomorrow, and you won't be so lucky then."

Judging from his words, Ren Yinxue was definitely behind it last time. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel angry and slammed her hand on the table: "You stupid regent, you pulled up your pants and then denied it, dragging me into it too, and I almost lost my life."

As if still not satisfied, he continued, "He's so old and still hasn't married Ren Yinxue, what a scumbag. Why don't you give this medicine to the Regent? So he'll never enjoy any happiness in his life."

As for what kind of happiness they will enjoy, everyone knows the answer in their hearts.

Su Fuying's voice was so loud that Ying Er, who was on the locust tree, fell flat on his face upon hearing it.

At this moment, Su Fuying had no time to pay attention to the commotion outside the door, because her gaze was fixed on Lu Yanxiu, not missing a single change.

Unfortunately, Lu Yanxiu didn't even breathe, his dark eyes fixed on her. "I advise you to give up on this idea. He's not someone you can afford to offend."

"Oh."

Having failed to achieve her goal, Su Fuying lost interest.

She was always confident in her intuition; the Regent and Lu Yanxiu were the same person. Last time she was drunk, perhaps she had just imagined it, but in fact, the two looked exactly alike.

So I just had a sudden urge to try it out again.

"Remember my words."

"Oh."

Lu Yanxiu seemed speechless for a moment, his breathing became heavier, and then he walked directly towards the door. When he passed Su Fuying, he stopped in his tracks.

Su Fuying turned her head and said, "Are you leaving or not? You might as well just stay here as your home."

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a warm, large hand cover her head.

The hand was large and warm, gently stroking her hair.

Then, a strange warm current surged from his palm, seeped through his scalp to the roots of his hair, and then spread along the strands to the ends.

This warm current brings a comfortable feeling, making people feel incredibly relaxed and at ease.

As time went on, the warm current grew stronger and stronger, gradually enveloping the entire head.

The previously damp hair quickly dried under the influence of this warm current, and each strand of hair regained its dryness and smoothness.

Not only that, even the fabric that was soaked on the back was dried in a short time, and no longer felt damp.

It's already August, and although the weather isn't as hot as in the height of summer, the night breeze still brings a touch of coolness.

Especially when there are water droplets dripping from their clothes and head.

The words that had been swirling in his mouth finally settled into two words: "Thank you."

Suddenly I thought, "Is this person still using internal energy in the middle of the night?"

Reaching out and grabbing the man's wrist, Su Fuying frowned at the erratic pulse.

"Where's the medicine I gave you?"

Upon hearing this, the man paused slightly, then coughed lightly as if feeling a little guilty, "I'm done eating."

"Finished?"

Did you finish all that food in one go today?

Su Fuying's tone was somewhat incredulous, after all, her medicine had absolutely no side effects, and the only way to cause his current condition was to take it continuously.

"Yes, I have something to do today."

"You're really courting death. Even though this medicine has no side effects, you can't take it like this." After saying that, she felt a wave of fear. Luckily, she only had a few pills with her at the time, otherwise, if she had given them all to him, he would have died by now.

Then, remembering what the man had just said, she asked, "Where are you going tomorrow?"

Lu Yanxiu asked sarcastically, "What, you've found out all this so you want to elope with me?"
