Murong Qiqi was naturally happy to have someone to rely on. "Cousin, you have to keep your word. If anyone dares to bully me in the future, I'll tell them your name! "
"Of course."
"Then, no matter what I do, if something happens, or if I do something wrong, you'll be responsible for it?"
"No problem —"
Before Li Yunqing could finish her words, Murong Qiqi had already appeared behind Duanmu Yiyi and kicked her into the lake.
"Plop —" Duanmu Yiyi fell into the water, creating a huge splash. Everything happened so quickly that no one could stop it. By the time everyone regained their senses, Duanmu Yiyi was struggling in the water, screaming for help.
"You!" Duanmu Hongchen glared at Murong Qiqi angrily, then jumped onto the water and pulled Duanmu Yiyi out.
"You —" Li Yunqing did not expect Murong Qiqi to 'kick' her after saying so much. But since he agreed to help her, he would naturally protect her.
It was likely that Murong Qiqi was doing this on purpose as well! "Sly girl!" Li Yunqing's voice was filled with a hint of doting.
"Ah! Murong Qiqi, I'm going to kill you! "
As the First Miss of the Duanmu Family, Duanmu Yiyi had never suffered such humiliation. She could not care less about her dripping wet body as she drew the sword from Duanmu Hongchen's waist and stabbed it at Murong Qiqi. "You slut! Die! "
"Watch out!" Shangguan Wuji exclaimed, but he was too far away from Murong Qiqi.
"Help!"
Murong Qiqi 'panicked' as she grabbed the dagger that Shangguan Wuji had put down. She closed her eyes and screamed, not daring to look at Duanmu Yiyi.
Just as Duanmu Yiyi's sword was about to stab into Murong Qiqi's chest, she moved slightly to the side, and the sword brushed past her. Duanmu Yiyi's right wrist happened to touch the dagger. "Clang —" Duanmu Yiyi felt pain in her wrist, and the sword fell to the ground. A smear of blood immediately appeared on her wrist.
"Don't kill me! Cousin, save me! " Murong Qiqi cried as she jumped behind Li Yunqing. Duanmu Yiyi hugged her wrist and screamed, "My hand —"
"Little sister!" Duanmu Hongchen immediately went forward to examine Duanmu Yiyi. He discovered that the tendons on Duanmu Yiyi's right wrist had been neatly cut by the dagger, and bright red blood was flowing out. If this right hand was not treated in time, it was likely that she would never be able to raise it again, much less play the zither or hold the sword.
"Little sister, bear with it!" Duanmu Hongchen glared fiercely at Murong Qiqi before he picked up Duanmu Yiyi and flew away from the pavilion.
"Third Sister, you're in trouble!" At the side, Murong Qinglian laughed in schadenfreude. "You actually broke Miss Duanmu's tendons, this time you're in big trouble! The Duanmu Clan will not let you off so easily! "
"I, I didn't do anything …" Murong Qiqi seemed to be frightened by Murong Qinglian's words as her eyes became misty. "She pounced on me herself, I don't know why …"
Everyone had clearly seen what had happened just now. When Duanmu Yiyi's treasured sword had stabbed over, Murong Qiqi had indeed not done anything. But how did it end up being Duanmu Yiyi's wrist being cut by the dagger? It had to be said that it was a coincidence. It could only be said that Murong Qiqi was too lucky!
However, was that really luck? Li Yunqing's eyes flashed with a hint of playfulness. It seemed like this cousin of his was like a huge treasure, the closer one got, the more astonished one would be.
"Third Miss, we all saw what happened just now clearly. It has nothing to do with you, it was just an accident!" Seeing how frightened Murong Qiqi was, Shangguan Wuji hurriedly comforted her. "Don't worry, even if they investigate, I will testify for you!"
"Young Master Shangguan, thank you!"
"Third Sister, have a cup of wine to calm yourself down!" Murong Xinlian poured a cup of wine and passed it to Murong Qiqi. "We all saw it, it's not your fault, you don't have to worry too much. Father is also a reasonable person!"
"Thank you, Second Sister!" Murong Qiqi took the wine cup and brought it to her mouth. The moment it entered her mouth, she discovered the problem inside.
Ah, she actually drugged it! She knew that today's matter would not end so easily. After waiting for so long, Murong Xinlian finally couldn't help but make her move. Murong Qiqi's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and she drank the wine without any hesitation.
She was thrown into the poisonous spring by her godfather for two years, this kind of child's play was nothing to her. However, since Murong Xinlian had the intention to scheme against her, why not beat her at her own game!
After a while, Murong Qiqi pressed her head as if she had a headache, "I'm not feeling well, you guys have fun, I'll go back first."
Seeing Murong Qiqi's appearance, Murong Xinlian knew that the drug had taken effect. Suppressing the joy in her heart, Murong Xinlian pretended to be worried, "Why didn't your girl follow? I'll get someone to send you back! Agate, send Third Miss back to Jadeite Bamboo Garden! "
"Yes!" A delicate and pretty maid immediately appeared in front of Murong Qiqi and supported her, "Third Miss, let's go!"
"Wait!" Murong Qiqi retracted her hand. Murong Xinlian's expression changed. Did she discover something?
"I still have something to take!"
Murong Qiqi walked to the table and put away everyone's bets. Finally, she took out the Snow Skin Pill and handed it to Shangguan Wuji, "Gongzi and I don't know each other, but I'm very grateful for your protection. Please accept this Snow Skin Pill as a token of my gratitude, Gongzi Shangguan must accept it! "
Without waiting for Shangguan Wuji to reject, Murong Qiqi directly stuffed the Snow Skin Pill into his hand, then bowed to Bai Mufei and Bai Yiyue, "Qiqi will be grateful for your kindness in the future!"
After that, Murong Qiqi pressed her temple again and pretended to be in pain, "Agate, send me back!"
Seeing Murong Qiqi and Agate leave, Murong Xinlian took a deep breath, and her expression became gentle.
Just now, Murong Jun had already left because he had a stomach ache. Things were going according to her plan, and soon, the drug on Murong Jun's body would take effect. As long as Agate led Murong Qiqi to Murong Jun, it would be like firewood meeting fire, and it would immediately burn.
On the other side, Agate supported the dizzy Murong Qiqi, "Third Miss, Third Miss!"
