Chapter 1483: Chapter 1483: None Shall Surpass Lan!

"He’s been backed into a corner, become a wallflower. What can he do? His heart is suffering, too."

"Especially with these two before him, both could make him a lifelong bachelor, unable to marry Sui Ziyou as his bride. He can’t afford to provoke either of them."

"No matter how long you learn, don’t even think about surpassing Lan!" Sui Zimo snorted coldly and said to him.

Jiang Zuo: "..."

His heart, oh, why must it be so bitter?

"My lord, take your medicine, please drink up. If you don’t, it will cool down and become ineffective."

"Jiang Zuo!"

Lin Caisang gritted her teeth and shot him a glare.

Would the medicine she prepared lose its effect once cooled? Even ordinary medicine wouldn’t do that, right?

And he calls himself a doctor, speaking without thinking first.

Jiang Zuo: "..."

He raised his hand and covered his mouth, truly wanting to just sew it shut.

"Brother Molian, have the medicine, you will feel better after a good sleep," Lin Caisang said, looking at Sui Zimo.

"Okay."

Sui Zimo agreed, heaven knows how he managed to grind out that ’okay’.

...

After a while, seeing Sui Zimo lying unconscious on the bed, Lin Caisang began to instruct the others in the room.

"Everyone except Jiang Zuo, leave."

Upon hearing this, Zhe Jue glanced at Lin Caisang and then at Jiang Zuo.

The prince had ordered them to guard the lady, so what did it mean to send them out now?

He hadn’t forgotten that earlier the lady had readily agreed with the prince to let them stay close at all times.

"What are you looking at me for?"

Seeing them look his way, Jiang Zuo couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

"Off you go, off you go. Don’t disturb Miss Lin as she administers the antidote to the prince. This is no ordinary detoxification; a small mistake could be life-threatening."

"Then... My lady, we will wait outside."

Jiang Li said to Lin Caisang, then pulled Zhe Jue away, with Zhen Wu following out as well.

"Jiang Zuo, tell me the truth. Did your prince know I was going to draw out the poison for him?" Lin Caisang turned to Jiang Zuo with a cold face and scanned him after everyone had left.

If Brother Molian didn’t know, he wouldn’t have hesitated so much when taking his medicine just now.

And these past days, Sui Zimo’s tone of speaking was clearly unusual. From the moment he knew she was going to detoxify him, he wasn’t pleased, not at all. Instead, he hoped that things could be delayed as long as possible.

This didn’t look normal at all.

"Er."

Jiang Zuo choked at her question.

"Miss Lin, you... I really don’t know about this. Maybe, possibly, perhaps the prince knows? But I assure you, even if the prince does know, he did not hear it from me."

His unsure tone conveyed his message to Lin Caisang, but the last sentence was spoken with complete certainty.

Lin Caisang: "!"

She’d sooner trust a ghost than believe Jiang Zuo’s words!

"So he does know, then?"

"This..."

Jiang Zuo dared not say more, fearing he wouldn’t ever get married in the future.

As he was keeping his lips tightly sealed, he heard his lady’s muttering and sweat began to drip down his face.

"But it doesn’t matter whether he knows or not. In the end, I’ve drugged him, and no matter what, he can’t jump up and stop me now. Isn’t he still readily at my mercy?"

Looking at the soundly sleeping Sui Zimo, Lin Caisang spoke.

Jiang Zuo: "..."

Lady, if the prince wasn’t willing to be at your mercy, would he have taken the medicine at all?
