I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 111 Hangover

When Xin Youran woke up, she could feel the dazzling light.

She subconsciously raised her hand, and felt a sharp pain. She accidentally raised her right arm and pulled the wound on her shoulder. Only then did she realize that the wound had been patched.

Is she here in Mu Yuan?

My head is splitting and my throat is dry. How did she get here?

She remembered that she and Xia Hourui were having dinner at Yue Man Lou at the beginning. Where was Xia Hourui? Why couldn't she remember anything...

By the way, where is Leng Yue!

Xin Youran didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly got up and walked out, but bumped into Mu Yuan who entered the room.

"hiss……"

"How are you? Where did you get hit? Does it hurt?"

She didn't care about the pain anymore, the most important thing was to get her work done.

"What time is it now?"

Looking at the bright sunlight, she wouldn't sleep here all night, right?

"Where's Leng Yue?"

Mu Yuan watched her run out with messy hair. Just as he was about to raise his hand to tidy her hair, she slapped it away.

"Mu Yuan, it's too late. I have to find Leng Yue as soon as possible, and then I have to go to Ming Yu Zhai."

Yesterday, when she went to the toilet during a break from drinking with Xia Hou Rui, she specifically asked the waiter that the incense shop in the capital that competed with Ningxiang Pavilion was Mingyuzhai.

Mu Yuan calmly pulled him back into the room and asked, "Are you planning to leave like this?"

It was the first time she discovered that there was a large dressing table in the room, and she looked at herself in the bronze mirror.

Well, it's really scary, with unkempt hair and dirty face. If I changed my clothes, took a cane, and walked on the street, maybe someone would give me a few copper coins.

She could now do some simple hairstyles. Just as she picked up the comb, she saw Mu Yuan still standing behind her in the bronze mirror. She turned her head and looked at him with a wry smile, "Why don't you go out first?"

Mu Yuan chuckled and replied, "Leng Yue is at the Yue Man Lou Inn. She rested there last night."

"After you've washed up and eaten something, I'll have Jixue take you there."

Xin Youran put down the comb in her hand, turned back, looked into Mu Yuan's eyes and said, "Mu Yuan, thank you. By the way, yesterday's blood...you..."

Mu Yuan took a deep breath. He pulled up Xin Youran's left index finger and rubbed it. "Youyou, don't you feel any pain here?"

Perhaps because of Mu Yuan's touch, she not only felt a pain like a needle prick, but also seemed to have an electric current running straight into her heart. She quickly pulled her fingers out of his hand.

There was indeed a small wound there. "Oh, it didn't delay the detoxification for you."

"You, you go out first..."

Mu Yuan wanted to say something but stopped himself after thinking about it and slowly walked out.

Xin Youran stared at the wound on her index finger in a daze. It seemed that something was different about Mu Yuan. She always knew that he was a good person, but recently it seemed that he was... uh, a little too good?

Is it because she blocked the arrow for him and bled to detoxify him?

I must persuade him next time. It’s nothing. Don’t put any pressure on him. Just be yourself. There’s no need to be so nice to her deliberately.

She is not a stone. What will she do if she falls in love with him again after the poison is cured?

No, no, it’s better to keep the bridge to the bridge and the road to the road.

Xin Youran then realized how difficult it was to comb her hair with one hand. Just when she was in trouble, Jixue quickly took the comb from her hand and said, "Miss, let me do it."

"Also, His Highness has instructed you to drink this bowl of hangover soup first."

She was feeling dizzy, this was probably what they called a hangover, it was so uncomfortable!

In the future, you must resolutely avoid getting drunk. There is a reason why a small amount of alcohol can make you happy, but a large amount can harm your health.

She finished the hangover soup that Jixue brought her in one gulp. Although it didn't taste very good, she still smiled gratefully and said to her, "Hehe, Xiaoxue is really thoughtful and considerate!"

Jixue: Is this how you describe caring?

But I had heard too many new terms coming out of her mouth yesterday, so I didn't think there was anything wrong with it anymore.

After Xin Youran finished washing up, Jixue took her on a carriage to find Leng Yue.

When they arrived at Yuemanlou, Jixue helped Xin Youran down from the carriage, gave her some instructions, and then disappeared.

It's Yuemanlou again, what a fate, Xin Youran sighed as she walked inside. She originally wanted to ask which room Leng Yue was in, but she didn't expect to see Leng Yue and Xiahou Rui sitting opposite each other at a dining table as soon as she entered the door.

"Really? When did you two start hooking up... no, hanging out together?"

Leng Yue came downstairs early in the morning to have breakfast and met someone she didn't want to see, and then she heard Xin Youran say the same thing as soon as she arrived.

He instantly exploded, "Master Xin, I advise you to be mindful of your words and actions. Be careful of what you say. It's so early in the morning, and I'm already flexing my whip."

Xin Youran quickly sat down upon hearing this and said with an apologetic smile, "Hey, I was just joking to liven up the atmosphere."

After all, when you two sit together, it will be several degrees colder around you.

"Brother Xiahou, why are you here so early?"

Their appointment time should be in the afternoon.

It was really by accident that Xiahou Rui ended up staying at the Yuemanlou Inn.

After parting with Xin Youran yesterday, he went to the East Palace, but he didn't expect that his second brother was not there.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a notoriously reclusive and extremely boring person, but he arrived and was already out.

So I just waited, and waited for an hour and a half before the person came back.

"Second brother, where did you go for a tryst? You've left me, your sixth brother, waiting for you!"

Seeing that his state was no different from when he was in court, Mu Yuan immediately didn't want to pay any attention to him.

"Sixth Brother, I think you've been listening to too much music in Luoxianyuan?"

"I can't even speak normally anymore."

Mu Hongrui: ...

"Since Second Brother has mentioned Luoxianyuan, I'm sure you know about the death of the courtesan Yuzhanxian, right?"

"I came here this time to provide you with clues. In fact, before Miss Yu died, I had already found out that she was an expert in poisoning."

"She only comes out to receive customers once a month."

"According to the information I've found, her former lovers all have two things in common: one, they're all from out of town, and two, they all become idiots after spending a night with her."

"I concluded that it was her doing."

"We look for these outsiders because they've left their hometowns. If they've truly lost contact with their families, it's very unlikely they'll be able to find them. Even if the victims' families do find them, the journey is long, and the incident happened long enough that even if they report it to the police, tracing them is very difficult, and the case usually ends up unresolved."

"And the day you were assassinated, you happened to be in Luoxianyuan, which happened to be the day when Yuzhanxian came out to receive guests."

"So your death must be related to her!"

Mu Yuan watched Mu Hongrui analyze his assassination case with clear reasoning and thinking, and felt relieved. Lao Liu had really grown up. He was no longer the timid and cowardly kid who would hide behind his mother when things got tough...
