Chapter 1659: I wish I could strangle her to death

"Alright, go get me a clean set of clothes, prepare hot water for my bath, and don’t forget to add petals." Wei Qingyi commanded with an air of authority.

"I will go immediately, Master."

Qingyi nodded in satisfaction, the feeling of ordering people around as the master was truly different.

...

Xiao Yuchuan left Wei Qingyi’s temporary residence and had just stepped out of the courtyard door when he saw the left shadow guard waiting by the side.

He raised an eyebrow, "Why have you revealed yourself?"

Shadow guards usually lurked in the darkness, only appearing when necessary.

"I was worried about you, Master." The left shadow guard carefully glanced at the Valley Master, "You got hit by an aphrodisiac yesterday, are you alright now?"

"I’m alright." His face was very pale; other than that, there didn’t seem to be any issue.

The left shadow guard wanted to ask how the Valley Master had relieved the effects of the aphrodisiac but felt it was inappropriate. Since the Valley Master didn’t bring it up, he didn’t say anything further.

Xiao Yuchuan entered Qin Garden.

The left shadow guard glanced towards where Wei Qingyi was staying; curiosity is part of human nature.

Yesterday the Valley Master didn’t call for any other maids to serve, could it be... the Valley Master had relations with Wei Qingyi?

In the living room of Qin Garden, Su Qingyue was having breakfast. Xiao Yuchuan strode over and sat opposite her, "Having breakfast this early? It’s far from the usual hour for breakfast."

Staring at her artificially ordinary face, "Could it be you worried all night and were hungry the first thing this morning?"

Su Qingyue didn’t even look at him, slowly scooping a bowl of meat porridge and sipping it leisurely.

Seeing her calm demeanor, Xiao Yuchuan was furious.

This damn woman drugged him, forcing him to resort to self-relief last night, it made him utterly frustrated!

Today he thought she would at least show some guilt, but she acted as if nothing had happened, treating him like he was air.

He got even angrier, "As you wished, I enjoyed Wei Qingyi’s body last night."

As he said this, he stared at her firmly.

Her motions of drinking porridge didn’t pause even for a second, she continued savoring the porridge as if it were the most normal thing.

"You..." He gritted his teeth, "Su Qingyue, do you really not care at all?"

"Nonsense." She finally condescended to give him two words.

"So ruthless." He smiled maliciously, "I’m planning to marry Wei Qingyi as a concubine, what do you think?"

"Good for you." She said expressionlessly, "When you have your wedding, I’ll prepare a congratulatory gift. Although I feel it’s unnecessary to waste money on you, since we once knew each other, I’ll give something modest. But don’t expect anything grand, I won’t spend too much."

"You!" Xiao Yuchuan stood up abruptly in anger; he thought that telling her of taking the maid might get her to care even a bit, but this was her reaction.

She was completely indifferent.

Even just to see her get angry, annoyed, jealous... anything, as long as she showed any emotion would be good!

He sat back in his chair, defeated, and shamelessly said, "You wanted me to marry a concubine, now I won’t marry. No need to prepare your gift."

"Madman." She finished her breakfast, pulled out the white silk to wipe the corner of her mouth, "Whether you marry a concubine or not, what does it have to do with me? Fickle, does it amuse you?"

"It’s because you infuriate me." His heart was cold with anger, unable to forgive her for drugging him with an aphrodisiac and abandoning him to another woman.

If the situation were reversed, if he left her to another man, what would she think?

Right now, he wanted to strangle her!

But he couldn’t bear to see her dead.
