It was the first time that Xu Chengjin roared at Song Wenyuan. He was always unruly but also casual, and would not get angry easily, let alone in front of his best friend who everyone knew grew up with him.

Even Song Wenyuan found it a little sudden and kept silent with a serious look.

Xu Chengjin was really angry. Who was Yuan Ge? The only person in Zhixuan Mountain who could make her suffer a little was Yuan Qi. Yuan Qi was the best sister in the world, so how could she bear to see the little girl suffer a little? But now she has changed her identity and is not easy to deal with, and anyone can bully her. He raised his hand with a cold face, pointed at Yuan Ge, and scolded Song Wenyuan, "Song Wenyuan, she is such a proud person, she doesn't even bother to look at these prescriptions in front of her, otherwise, why would she ask me for help? Yes, I prescribed the prescriptions and sent the medicine, but who is she doing this for? Don't you know?!"

"Song Wenyuan, if you had listened to me and asked Yuan Ge to detoxify you earlier, why would you wait until now when you can't even protect your own wife, and instead ask a powerless woman to stand up and protect you?! Why don't you reflect on yourself and still have the nerve to stand here and accuse her? Song Wenyuan, you are the least qualified person in the world to hold such a high and mighty attitude and accuse her! You enjoy her efforts and endure her sacrifices, and you simply..."

"What did she sacrifice?" Song Wenyuan interrupted Xu Chengjin hoarsely, tightening his palms. "What price did she pay?"

"Xu Chengjin, stop talking." Yuan Ge stopped him in a cold voice.

Song Wenyuan himself is a martial artist, how could he not see that Yuan Ge had already gained internal strength in such a short period of time? The reason why he was angry was because he knew that such quick methods usually come at the cost of hurting oneself. Song Wenyuan felt that his internal organs were aching from anger, but he couldn't do anything about her, so he just sternly said, "Shut up. Chengjin, what do you think will happen if you drink that thing?"

"What can I do?" Xu Chengjin pulled the corner of his mouth for no reason. "Taking shortcuts is equivalent to stealing time from God. What you steal... you always have to pay it back."

Song Wenyuan's heart tightened. He understood, but he didn't dare to understand. The dark waves in his eyes rolled over layer by layer, his Adam's apple rolled again and again, and he asked very slowly and restrainedly with an almost hoarse voice, "W-what do you mean? What do you mean...still?"

"Short life, early death!" Xu Chengjin was nonchalant and nonchalant, suppressing all his emotions in his eyes without revealing a single bit. After a while, he opened the fan in his hand with a "snap" and fanned, "So you should continue to yell. After a few years, maybe you can change your wife. You have no place to yell anymore."

Song Wenyuan's face turned pale and his whole body trembled. Almost in slow motion, he slowly turned his head to look at Yuan Ge. His lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a word.

Wen Peiji also glanced at Yuan Ge, suppressing his words. Everyone looked quietly at the woman who Xu Chengjin had said "would not live many years". Even Xu Yi looked at her with a frown in disapproval. They really didn't know how this seemingly smart girl could have such a bad mind... What kind of man was worthy of her doing this?

In fact, it was not that serious. Yuan Ge rolled her eyes at Xu Chengjin, who was eager to create chaos in the world, and explained in a not very credible way, "Don't listen to his nonsense. If it really was something that would shorten your lifespan, he wouldn't dare to give it to me to drink, right?" She tried to break the awkward atmosphere, but it was obvious that it had little effect.

Even Wen Peiji didn't believe her.

Song Wenyuan looked at the dagger in his hand expressionlessly with his eyebrows suppressed. After a while, he took two steps forward, took Yuan Ge's hand and placed the dagger in her palm. He glanced at her with an indistinguishable look, then looked at Xu Yi and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, I will be a little busy these days, and I'm afraid I can't keep an eye on her. Everyone in Luofengxuan pampers her and lets her do whatever she wants. I'm worried. It's better for her to live here. I'll have someone send some money over later as compensation for disturbing this place today and the cost for my wife to live here. I'll ask you to take care of Qianqian these days. I'll trouble you to keep an eye on her food and drink. If there are any strange soups and medicines sent over, you can just pour them for me."

Xu Yi was silent: This couple don’t understand what people say or what? They said she is not the sister-in-law, not the sister-in-law!

However, the atmosphere was heavy and stagnant at the moment, and the servants around them even wanted to hold their breath. Even if Xu Yi wanted to jump up and down, she still had some self-awareness that "the elder sister-in-law is like a mother" and nodded very steadily, "Okay."

No wonder Song Wenyuan was so angry. She would be angry too if it were her.

Song Wenyuan was angry, but he was more distressed and worried. Those emotions mixed together made him feel like he was in a huge swamp. The harder he tried, the more powerless he felt. So he thought it would be good for this person to stay here for a few days, and he would come to pick her up after he finished the things at hand. With this plan in mind, Song Wenyuan finally took a deep look at Yuan Ge and sighed. In the end, he commanded Lin Mu and others to clean up the mess here. He took the masked man who was seriously injured, Doctor Zhang who was paralyzed and unable to move, and Xiang Liangcai who was already scared out of his wits off the pleasure boat, leaving only Jianshu to accompany them for protection.

Xu Chengjin followed them down. The young master Xu who had just righteously rebuked Song Wenyuan in public now followed closely beside him, with a deliberate flattery, looking particularly servile - after all, Miss Yuan stayed on the houseboat, and he would face Song Wenyuan's questioning alone, which was really a terrible thing.

The damn girl didn't discuss her testimony with him in advance, so he really didn't know how to explain it to Song Wenyuan... Oh no, it was a lie.

……

The troublemakers had all left, and the guests, who had experienced what was probably the most thrilling catastrophe in their lives, also left the pleasure boat in a panic. In the great surprise of surviving the disaster, they naturally talked about what had happened today with great relish. It was believed that within half a day, countless versions of what had happened here would have evolved and would be passed on by word of mouth in the streets and alleys, teahouses and taverns.

At this moment, two guests coming down from the second floor were wearing cloaks with wide hoods. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but judging from their figures, they should be a man and a woman. The man walked calmly and leisurely, while the woman was petite and her steps were unsteady. No one knew what the relationship between the couple was. Even so, the man did not help them and seemed particularly indifferent.

The woman staggered off the boat, rushed to an evergreen tree over there, and bent over to hold onto the trunk...
