I insist

Chapter 85: Drugging

With a casual grab, he ended up grabbing the other person's collar, which made things even more complicated.

"Don't come in."

But it was too late to say that; the maid who had come to deliver the items had already entered the room.

But the scene inside the room made her eyes widen in disbelief. She quickly raised her hand to cover her eyes and tried to dodge, but was released again when she knocked something over as she turned her head.

"Please spare my life, sir! I didn't mean to disturb your enjoyment."

The maid quickly kowtowed twice on the ground, then turned and ran out.

Even so, she still remembered to close the door.

Once the outside was quiet again, Yu Huailin raised his hand and slapped Song Miqiu to the ground.

As she watched him straighten his disheveled clothes, she couldn't bear to look away, her mind filled with his muscular physique.

"Still not enough? Looks like you're a bit lacking in men."

"Cough cough, I just didn't expect there to be so many wounds. You can use that medicine; it will help you recover quickly."

This one sentence caused Yu Huailin's gaze to change again, and he stared intently at Song Miqiu, who was getting up from the ground.

But she didn't care at all, and even abandoned the previous topic, going straight to the bedside to fuss over the bedding she was going to rest on that day.

Just as Song Miqiu had worn the blankets down to their sharp edges, a hand suddenly grabbed them.

How many things are there about you that I don't know?

"You really want to know?"

She slowly turned around and looked at Yu Huailin standing beside her, but her gaze was somewhat unfocused, as if she wasn't looking at him at all.

That's right, Song Miqiu has been looking for something that can keep this guy.

But she searched through the props for various ways to inflict curses, and found none of them effective. Her brows were furrowed in worry.

Just as Song Miqiu was about to give up, a sudden inspiration flashed in his mind.

It's not like he has to be inseparable from her; as long as there's a slight chance of exposing her, that's fine.

Song Miqiu immediately looked at the medicine that limited the effects of both or other substances, and soon found what she wanted.

Step away from the fragrance.

The description says it's a powder specially made by a blind man so he can easily find his wife.

The two will not be affected if they stay within their designated area, but if they exceed the limit, they will uncontrollably return to each other's side.

Song Miqiu smiled and quickly exchanged the item, but worried that someone would avoid it, so she could only grab Yu Huailin's arm tightly with her other hand.

"I can answer some of your questions, but you must..."

"Must what? I'm warning you not to go too far... um!"

Feeling a pill rapidly slide down her throat, she waved her hand to spit it out.

But no matter how hard he tried, the pill seemed to turn into water, and he couldn't spit anything out.

And Yu Huailin didn't sense anything was wrong, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Song Miqiu.

"What did you do? What exactly is the effect of that medicine?"

"Don't worry, I won't let you die. It's just a small matter."

Little things?

Yu Huailin pulled out a dagger hidden to the side, walked straight forward, and was about to stab Song Miqiu when he was attacked by another wave of incense powder.

The powder got into his eyes, causing him to gasp softly. He tried to wipe them away, but the strong fragrance made him sneeze.

How does it taste?

"mean."

Song Miqiu didn't say anything, but turned around and took a few steps in another direction, widening the distance between the two.

Seeing this, Yu Huailin smiled disdainfully. Just as he was about to move forward again, he felt his feet move uncontrollably.

"What did you do? Why didn't I want to move?"

What do you think I did?

With something beyond his control over him, Yu Huailin's expression changed repeatedly. After a long while, he finally let out a sigh and stared intently at Song Miqiu.

Knowing that he wouldn't do anything to her, she took two more steps forward to maintain the safest distance.

Yu Huailin also stopped what he was doing and looked at Song Miqiu with a puzzled expression, hoping to get an answer.

"That drug poses no threat to people, but it makes you unable to leave me. Whenever the two of you leave the area, you will turn into this state."

"You think you can control me like this?"

Of course not, but that would mean he couldn't leave for the time being. He couldn't escape me no matter what he wanted to do, and he had no way to assassinate that prince.

Seeing Song Miqiu's smug look, Yu Huailin's lips curled up again, and he threw the dagger in his hand at her.

Hearing the whooshing sound, she immediately took two steps back to dodge the attack, then gave a provocative smile to the other side.

"This is what you wanted to play."

Ignoring Yu Huailin's expression, he continued backward, and the other person also jumped back two steps, staggering towards Song Miqiu.

Noticing the dissatisfaction in those eyes, she didn't care, waved her hand, and continued moving to other places.

After following him in a disheveled manner for a while, Yu Huailin could no longer bear it and could only rush forward while Song Miqiu remained still.

"Aren't you afraid that someone will use this to control the two of us?"

“How far apart do you think we’ll be after that maid leaves? As long as you can maintain that distance, there’s absolutely nothing to worry about.”

Yu Huailin frowned, clearly still wanting her to remove the drug that was controlling people, when he heard a yawn from the side.

"I'm a little tired after a busy day, I'll step down now."

"Have you forgotten something?"

Because of what had just happened, Song Miqiu was so sleepy that she couldn't think of anything else. She stared blankly at the other person for a while before she remembered what had happened.

But she wasn't too bothered; she simply took out a quilt from the cabinet next to her and threw it to the other person.

"I'm sorry, but for my safety and theirs, I'll have to make you put up with this for a while."

"Song Miqiu".

Hearing someone calling her name through gritted teeth, she nodded her heavy head and then shrank back into the covers.

But she didn't go to sleep. Instead, she hid her face in the system and looked through the exchange items again.

She hadn't looked closely before, but just as she was about to exchange them in bulk, she suddenly saw the tiny, ant-like text below.

But for his wife's freedom, the blind man limited the effects of the medication to seven days.

In other words, she had to poison the person behind her again every seven days.

It's not difficult to say, but that was before this time. If Song Miqiu wanted to feed him something for no reason, she would definitely be checked repeatedly. If she was discovered that time, the relationship would definitely be dissolved.

By then, she will have lost both her money and her lover.

Song Miqiu looked at the points that were already quite expensive, then glanced at the legs still wearing shoes under the bed, and curled up in pain.

Just as she was drifting off to sleep, she suddenly heard footsteps in the room, which startled her awake and made her sit up.
