When Li Mo'er saw that Wang Xian had been knocked down, she immediately went into the house to check on him.

When she saw Shen Zicen on the bed, ravaged beyond recognition, she was so angry that she trembled all over and felt like killing Wang Xian.

She quickly stepped forward, untied the strips of cloth binding Shen Zicen's hands and feet, and then pulled the quilt over to wrap him up.

Li Lin also carried Wang Xian in, "Sister Mo'er, what should we do with this person?"

Seeing Shen Zicen's abnormally red face, Li Mo'er clenched her fist and punched Wang Xian hard in the face.

Li Lin had never seen Mo'er so crazy before, and stood there dumbfounded.

"Er Gouzi, tie her to the pillar."

Li Lin took the strip of cloth that Li Mo'er threw to him and tied Wang Xian's hands tightly behind the pillar.

Then, Li Mo'er saw the powder on the table, and without thinking twice, she mixed all the packets of powder into her water glass.

"Pour it down her throat, then gag her."

Li Lin forcefully pried open Wang Xian's mouth. Since she dared to do such inhuman things, she didn't need to be polite. She dislocated Wang Xian's jaw before forcing her to swallow the contents.

Looking at Shen Zicen on the bed, Li Mo'er felt a sharp, stabbing pain in her heart, as if she were being pricked by needles.

She reached out and stroked Shen Zicen's face, but Shen Zicen reacted strongly.

He shook his head desperately and cried out helplessly, "No, don't come any closer."

"Waaaaah, brother, come save me!"

Shen Zicen cried for help unconsciously, and her tears never stopped flowing.

Li Mo'er wiped away his tears and gently coaxed him, "It's alright, A-Cen, it's alright."

Li Mo'er's voice was also hoarse; she didn't know what else to say besides "I'm fine."

But soon, she noticed something was wrong; Shen Zicen's face was burning hot.

Perhaps it was because of Li Mo'er's comforting words, but Shen Zicen gradually calmed down.

When Li Mo'er's hand touched his face again, he leaned closer and mumbled something.

"Brother, I'm hot, I'm so hot."

As he spoke, he lifted the blanket, wanting to cool off for a while.

He gripped Li Mo'er's hands tightly, for that was the only coolness he felt.

"Ah Cen, be good, don't lift it."

Looking at the red and purple marks on Shen Zicen's chest, Li Mo'er closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and calmed her impulsive heart.

Even though Li Mo'er didn't know much about these things, she knew that Shen Zicen had been drugged.

She saw the bathtub next to her, struggled to break free from Shen Zicen's hands, and walked to the tub, which was full of cold water.

Li Mo'er returned to the bedside and picked up Shen Zicen, who was curled up in a ball. That was all she could do now.

She placed Shen Zicen into the bathtub and watched the water slowly overflow from it.

Upon touching the cold water, Shen Zicen first shuddered, then let out a satisfied sigh.

Seeing that Shen Zicen was feeling better, Li Mo'er returned to Wang Xian.

She looked at Wang Xian, whose face was flushed and who seemed to be waking up, but she knew she couldn't let her go easily.

She was also worried that once Wang Xian regained consciousness, he would cause trouble for Shen Zicen.

She had to find a way to ruin Wang Xian, and do it without anyone noticing.

Her gaze fell on the medicine packet on the table; it was the medicine Li Lin had bought for her father.

She opened a package, took out the aconite root inside, and said to Li Lin, "Er Gouzi, go to the pharmacy and buy some aconite root. Tell them you're feeling a bit weak and need to buy more to help you recover."

Li Mo'er remembered that if too much aconite was taken, it would paralyze the nerves and cause brain damage.

Li Lin didn't know why he had to buy it, but he still obediently went and kicked Wang Xian before leaving.

Just as Li Mo'er was about to go check on Shen Zicen, she heard soft, alluring sounds coming from inside the room.

She knew it was Shen Zicen trying to comfort her, so she simply didn't go over.

Hearing the flushed voices inside, a mixture of pleasure and pain, she couldn't help but step forward and slap Wang Xian.

"Son of a bitch!"

Seeing that Wang Xian was showing signs of waking up, he slapped her several more times, knocking her unconscious.

The sound lasted for almost half an hour, which shows how much drug Wang Xian had given Shen Zicen.

Worried that Shen Zicen might not be safe in the bathtub by herself, she carried the blanket to the tub, closed her eyes tightly, and groped her way to pull Shen Zicen out of the tub.

Only after wrapping Shen Zicen up did she open her eyes. Looking at Shen Zicen, whose face was already deathly pale, she felt a burning hatred.

She will definitely not let Wang Xian off easily!

As they gently placed Shen Zicen on the bed, the blanket on his chest slipped down, revealing even more red and purple bruises than before. His skin, having been soaked in cold water for so long, had turned pale, making the marks appear even more horrifying.

"Sister Mo'er, I'm back."

Li Lin brought up the brewed medicine and placed it on the table.

Hearing the noise, Li Mo'er wrapped Shen Zicen up and went outside.

"Sister Mo'er, it's all aconite, nothing else was added."

Li Lin spoke as if he were taking credit for something.

Li Mo'er nodded, touched the hot medicine bowl, and gestured for Li Lin to remove the rag from Wang Xian's mouth.

Ignoring the heat, he poured the medicine straight into her mouth.

The scalding medicine dripped down Wang Xian's chin onto Li Mo'er's hand, but she seemed not to feel it.

Wang Xian was brought back to his senses by the burn. He tried to scream, but his throat was hoarse from the heat, and he couldn't say anything. He could only look at Li Mo'er pleadingly, his eyes filled with fear.

She kept repeating one sentence, which Li Mo'er could tell from her lip movements was, "I didn't touch him, please spare me."

Li Mo'er thought to herself, if she really touched him, she would make sure Wang Xian didn't even know how he died.

She rudely shoved the rag from the ground back into Wang Xian's mouth, the rag poking straight into Wang Xian's throat, making her want to gag.

Li Mo'er stared intently at Wang Xian, wondering how to deal with her; she couldn't just leave her here.

"Sister Mo'er, let's go back early, I smell terrible."

Li Lin sniffed his clothes with disgust. "The stove was turned off, so I just found a random place to brew the medicine. I didn't expect it to be a pigsty."

Pigsty?

Li Mo'er patted Li Lin on the shoulder, "Well done."

She had Li Lin take Wang Xian to the pigsty, and she took aphrodisiacs and drank aconite. She was sure to become famous by tomorrow morning.

After tonight, she will remember nothing of this place and will only be a foolish madwoman.

She instructed Li Lin to carry Wang Xian to the pigsty and let her fend for herself, and then to go to the Shen residence to inform them to bring Shen Zicen back.

Li Lin carried Wang Xian down the stairs without alerting anyone, as no one was loitering around the inn at this time.

She went out through the back door, which led directly to the pigsty. She untied Wang Xian's hands and feet, removed the rag from her mouth, and then kindly tossed her gently into the pigsty, afraid of hurting her.

The pigs were startled and started squealing and squabbling wildly inside.

Wang Xian also began to tear at her clothes uncontrollably. The drug was taking effect, and she was looking for something to release her pent-up emotions.

By the moonlight, Li Lin watched as Wang Xian chased the strong boar around on the ground, muttered "Serves him right," and went to the Shen residence to report the news.
