Chapter 8: Beautiful Counterattack! The Poisoned Young Lady!
"Miss Er not only suffered damage to her heart and lungs, but she has also been poisoned with forty-nine different toxins!" The maid trembled even more violently. "Madam Jiang couldn't do anything, so she asked Master to come and treat Miss Er."
"Father, I feel so itchy all over! My face is burning too!" At this moment, Xiang Wanru also reached out and scratched her face incessantly. She felt as if there were millions of ants crawling on her face.
A hint of mockery flashed in Xiang Lingyu's eyes. She was the one who had administered the poison when Hui Kelai arrived. At that time, she anticipated that Xiang Ziyun and Xiang Wanru would follow and pretend to persuade Xiang Qiuyu not to get angry, but in reality, they were instigating him to kill her.
In retaliation, she used her latest developed poison, the "Beauty Poison." As the name suggests, the "Beauty Poison" only targets women. Although it appears to be a single poison, once it is inhaled, it mutates and separates into forty-nine different toxins, each of which remains in its respective organ without neutralizing or merging with each other.
She had always been someone who wouldn't harm others unless they provoked her. If someone provoked her, she would make sure to give them a taste of an unresolvable poison! Since Xiang Ziyun and Xiang Wanru dared to plot against her, they should be prepared to face the consequences!
"Without my permission, you are not allowed to step out of this courtyard again!" Despite feeling anxious for Xiang Ziyun deep down, Xiang Qiuyu did not forget the purpose of his visit here.
After warning Xiang Lingyu, he simply instructed the steward in response to Xiang Wanru's constant clamor, "Go find the elders of the clan to treat Wanru."
In his heart, among his three daughters, Xiang Ziyun was the one he valued the most.
"Yes!"
Xiang Lingyu, who had been watching the drama from the side, now understood why Xiang Ziyun wanted her dead. For Xiang Ziyun, no matter how much Xiang Qiuyu doted on her, the position of the legitimate daughter would never be hers.
The only way was to let her die so that Xiang Ziyun could have a chance to become the legitimate daughter.
However, based on Xiang Qiuyu's attitude towards her just now, he didn't value or love her at all. So why didn't he strip the original owner of her status as the legitimate daughter?
Xiang Lingyu searched through all the memories of the original owner's mind but couldn't find a reason, so she had to give up.
"Father!"
As Xiang Wanru scratched herself haphazardly, she watched Xiang Qiuyu leave without any reluctance, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes. She was also his illegitimate daughter! Xiang Ziyun was just two steps ahead of her in terms of being competitive! Why could she receive all of Xiang Qiuyu's fatherly love?
Xiang Lingyu didn't miss the hatred in Xiang Wanru's eyes. In her mind, she had already outlined a plan. Whether she pretended to be a scheming woman, a hypocrite, or a universally despised fool, as long as it could defeat the enemy, she, Xiang Lingyu, could adapt and endure!
"I heard that Second Sister is Father's pride. Third Sister, don't be sad. I'll blow on your face for you!"
Xiang Lingyu walked over, but before she could touch Xiang Wanru's body, she was pushed hard by Xiang Wanru. "Get lost! Who needs comfort from a fool like you!"
Xiang Lingyu wasn't angry. She said to the departing figure of Xiang Wanru, "Third Sister, I can relieve the itching on your face!"
"A waste like you dares to say you can cure my face? Ridiculous!" Xiang Wanru sneered disdainfully and walked away. She was burning and itching all over, and her heart felt like it was being stung by millions of bees, causing unbearable pain.
"Ice water! Get me some ice water..."
In Xiang Ziyun's room, she kept shouting for ice water as if she were possessed. She felt as if her blood was boiling, her face was itchy, her chest hurt, and her stomach was cramping...
