Chapter 224 Letting the Wolf In
"Isn't that unnecessary?" The antidote has already been prepared.
"It's necessary, absolutely necessary," Yan Ye said solemnly.
Acheng ran to a corner and hid, leaning against the wall, clutching his heart which felt like it was about to jump out of his chest.
This is the first time I've ever given flowers to a girl, I'm so nervous!
A bodyguard walked over, saw A-Cheng, and immediately looked surprised: "Brother Cheng, why is your face so red? It's like a pig's liver, do you have a fever?"
"You're the one with a fever, get out!"
After glaring angrily at the bodyguard who hadn't left, Acheng turned and ran off, leaving the bodyguard standing there dumbfounded, completely bewildered.
After Yue Yirou applied the ointment prepared by Zhou Xinyu, the red bumps on her face improved significantly the next day. They stopped itching, stopped being red, and even became much smaller.
After Yue Yirou came out of the bathroom and looked in the mirror, she rushed into Yan Ye's arms and hugged him with joy.
"Yan Ye, I'm so happy, so very happy."
Once her face is healed, she won't have to wear a mask and kiss Yan Ye all the time anymore; once her face is healed, she can tell Yan Ye that she loves him; once her face is healed, they can return to Xingye Pavilion and live a happy and sweet life.
After returning home, she will prepare for pregnancy and give Yan Ye a healthy and adorable baby.
Yan Ye hugged her tightly, his smile growing wider, radiating happiness and contentment.
Mu Xuan got up early in the morning. After washing up, she didn't go downstairs to have breakfast right away. Instead, she quietly opened the door, leaving a crack, and stood by the door, watching the movements outside in the corridor.
Her room was at the very end of the corridor, and everyone else's rooms were in front of hers. So when people went downstairs for breakfast, almost no one looked at her room, let alone noticed that her door was not closed properly.
Mu Xuan stood inside the door, secretly observing. After seeing Zhou Xinyu, Yan Ye, Yue Yirou, and Acheng and the others come downstairs, she came out of the room.
Yawning, he walked to Yan Ye and Yue Yirou's room, looked around, then quickly turned the doorknob and slipped inside.
Mu Xuan stayed here for two days. Every morning, when Yue Yirou came downstairs, Mu Xuan was already waiting at the dining table.
But today, there was no one in sight.
Everyone was seated at the table, but Mu Xuan was still not down. Yue Yirou couldn't help but wonder if Mu Xuan was feeling unwell.
"I'll go up and check on her."
Yue Yirou stood up from her seat. Yan Ye knew her personality and knew that it would be useless to stop her, so he did not stop her and let her be.
But he said indifferently, "I'll wait for you to come down before I have breakfast. Hurry up and come down."
Yue Yirou didn't speak, but bent down and gently kissed his forehead.
Sitting opposite him, Zhou Xinyu joked, "Could you please be a little considerate of our brother Acheng? Please don't be showing off your love so early in the morning, okay?"
"Acheng, do you have a problem with that?" Yan Ye glanced at Acheng.
Acheng hurriedly waved his hand: "No objection, no objection, young master and young mistress, please feel free to show your affection."
After Yue Yirou went upstairs, she went straight to Mu Xuan's room. She raised her hand to knock on the door, but found that the door was ajar.
Has Mu Xuan already gone downstairs?
However, she did not encounter her along the way.
With a sense of doubt, Yue Yirou gently pushed open the door and went inside.
"Xuanxuan, are you up?"
Mu Xuan was not in the room.
Strange, where did Xuanxuan go?
Yue Yirou stood in the room, frowning and thinking for a while, before turning around and leaving the room.
When she reached the door of her and Yan Ye's bedroom, she slowly stopped and stared blankly at the closed door.
Will it be like that?
No, Xuanxuan wouldn't do such a thing.
A thought popped into her head, but she immediately dismissed it.
After staring at the door for a few seconds, she took a step and walked towards the stairwell.
After slipping into Yan Ye and Yue Yirou's bedroom, Mu Xuan began searching for the ointment that Zhou Xinyu had prepared.
Yesterday, Yue Yirou showed it to her, and she has already memorized the appearance of that bottle.
When her gaze swept across the dressing table, she immediately spotted the bottle of ointment.
Without hesitation, I walked over and picked it up.
Yue Yirou, I want your face to never heal.
Yan Ye doesn't dislike you now because he thinks there's hope for your face to be cured. Once he finds out it can't be cured, he won't be so foolishly infatuated with you anymore.
No man will be infatuated with an ugly woman.
Yan Ye belongs to Mu Xuan.
Mu Xuan gritted her teeth, squinted at the bottle for a while, then unscrewed the cap and took out a small white bottle from her skirt pocket.
The small bottle contains some white powder, which is a non-toxic medicinal powder. However, if mixed with other medications, it can affect their efficacy and even alter their properties, causing side effects.
Mu Xuan poured all the white powder from the small bottle into the ointment, and then took out a toothpick from her pocket to mix the powder and ointment evenly.
As soon as Yue Yirou applied these medicines, her face was completely disfigured.
A vicious smile gradually appeared on Mu Xuan's lips.
Yue Yirou walked to the bottom of the stairs, took a few steps down, gradually slowed her pace, and finally stopped.
She knew she shouldn't think of Mu Xuan that way, but reason ultimately prevailed over emotion.
Mu Xuan wasn't in the room, and she hadn't encountered her on her way up, which made her suspicious.
She decided to hide at the bottom of the stairs and peek. If her bedroom door opened and Mu Xuan happened to come out, it would prove her guess was correct.
She really let a wolf into the house; she was blind to its true nature.
Yue Yirou took a few steps upstairs, hid by the wall and peeked into the corridor, her gaze fixed on the door of her bedroom.
A moment later, she saw the doorknob on her and Yan Ye's bedroom door move slightly, indicating that someone inside was trying to open it.
Yue Yirou quickly pulled her head back, leaned against the wall, and held her breath.
The door opened a crack, and Mu Xuan peeked out, looked around, and finding the corridor empty, opened the door, walked out, and closed it behind her.
Knowing that everyone was already sitting at the dining table waiting for her, Mu Xuan didn't return to her room but hurriedly walked towards the stairwell.
Hearing footsteps, Yue Yirou took a few steps down, then turned around and pretended to go up.
When Mu Xuan saw her, she was walking uphill, as if she had just come up from downstairs.
"Xuanxuan, why are you only coming down now? I thought you weren't feeling well."
Upon seeing Mu Xuan, Yue Yirou stopped in her tracks.
Fortunately, we acted quickly enough.
Mu Xuan was secretly relieved that Yue Yirou hadn't seen her come out of her bedroom.
She gave Yue Yirou an apologetic smile: "I'm not feeling unwell. I went to bed late last night, so I overslept this morning. I'm sorry to have worried you."
