“How’s the questioning going?” Du Xiao Li returned to their side, asking as she looked to Han Ming Yi’s stern
expression.
“En, more or less finished.” Han Ming Yi said, “Just, who exactly was the one that did the poisoning, we
temporarily can’t determine yet.”
Du Xiao Li looked to Bai Ning Yuan’s somewhat sloppy appearance and worryingly asked, “Are you sure he’s
telling the truth”
Han Ming Yi nodded and said, “Everyone in the pugilistic world all know that the poison king never lies. At most,
he just poisons the other person to death after telling the truth.”
“Eh—–alright then.” Du Xiao Li said, and then no longer bothered asking about these things again. She turned
around and looked to Bai Ning Yuan, “Then right now, come settle our debt.”
“What debt do we have?”
Du Xiao Li pointed to the ruined vineyard and said, “These were all wrecked by you. Of course you have to
compensate me. If you don’t compensate me, then in the future, I won’t sell you any of my grapes.”

Bai Ning Yuan instantly jumped up and shouted, “No way, I came all the way here specifically for this. How can
you not give me any?!”
Bai Ning Yuan’s movement had startled all three of them, especially Du Xiao Li. She was certain that the
acupuncture point she stabbed the needle into can definitely make him unable to move.
“You didn’t get frozen?!”
Bai Ning Yuan took the grapes from Leng Er’s hands at once. His fingers lightly pinched the skin, peeling out a
small opening, and then had the meat squeezed into his mouth. Afterwards, he had the needle Du Xiao Li stabbed
into him earlier pulled out and said, “Nope, before you stabbed the needle in, I had my acupuncture point slightly
shifted that tiny bit, thus this needle of yours didn’t get inserted into the right place. Come, little sister, here’s your
needle back.”
The line ‘little sister’ made Du Xiao Li feel like she wanted to vomit blood. Who’s his little sister!?
“If you didn’t get frozen, then why were you like that just now?”
“There was someone to peel the skin for me for free, and I was too lazy to move.” Bai Ning Yuan said, “Besides,
your this vineyard’s owner, I at least should sell you some face, right?”
“You like eating grapes that much?” Du Xiao Li held her forehead.
Bai Ning Yuan nodded.
“Are you really the poison king?” Du Xiao Li looked to Bai Ning Yuan in disbelief.
“Replacement guaranteed if not genuine.” Bai Ning Yuan said, “That’s right, what did you give them to eat just
now? It was able to cure my poison that easily.”
“Naturally it’s specifically for countering your poison.” Du Xiao Li replied, and seeing that Bai Ning Yuan wanted
to continue asking, she said, “Pay up first, after you pay up, I’ll tell you.”
“I don’t have money———”
“He previously had the fire and ice sold to someone for one thousand taels of gold.” Han Ming Yi said.
“One thousand taels of gold?” Du Xiao Li looked to Bai Ning Yuan with her mouth agape. “You’re this rich, yet dare
say you don’t have money!”
“It’s not on me.” Bai Ning Yuan said, “Seeing that you also know poison, how about I give you the fire and ice
recipe?”
Du Xiao Li casted Bai Ning Yuan a glance and said, “I’ve already concoct the antidote for fire and ice, why would I
still need your recipe?”

“What? You concocted the antidote already?” Bai Ning Yuan was shocked by Du Xiao Li’s words. “I haven’t even
concoct the antidote yet, yet you already figured it out? Are you for real?”
Du Xiao Li let out a yawn and said, “Big brother Yi, this person, I don’t care how you all want to deal with him, but
before that, you must have my losses demanded back. I’m going to head back first.”
With that said, she walked towards the courtyard. She knew, encountering Bai Ning Yuan, the fire and ice poison’s
creator, Han Ming Yi and them won’t have the time to send her back right now. Fortunately, it wasn’t too far of a
walk.
“Hey, you still haven’t told me whether or not you really did concoct the antidote!” Bai Ning Yuan shouted towards
Du Xiao Li.
“If it’s real, it can’t be fake; if it’s fake, it can’t be real. Big brother Yi, remember to my losses!”
When Du Xiao Li returned to the courtyard, Meng Jiang Zhuo was currently accompanying the Grand Empress
Dowager and Meng Old Madam. Knowing that Du Xiao Li had returned, she quickly ran out from the courtyard.
When she saw Du Xiao Li, she instantly charged over, worryingly asking, “Xiao Li, are you alright? Have the
matters been settled already?”
“En, it’s already taken care of. The third princess has already waken up.” Du Xiao Li said with a smile.
“Miss Du, master request for you to come in.” Meng Gu appeared behind them.
“I was just planning on going to see grandma Han. Will have to trouble Meng Gu.” Du Xiao Li nodded towards
Meng Gu and pulled Meng Jiang Zhuo together with her to go see the Grand Empress Dowager.
“Girl, you’ve finally come back. How are things over there?” When Meng Old Madam saw Du Xiao Li and Meng
Jiang Zhuo walk in, she opened her mouth first.
Du Xiao Li curtsied towards the Grand Empress Dowager and Meng Old Madam, and then replied, “The poison has
already been cured, and the third princess has already awoken as well. As for other matters, Xiao Li isn’t clear.”
“I took a trip back to the manor yesterday and heard my father and mother day you haven’t properly rested in several
days already?” Meng Jiang Zhuo said.
“This time, the culprit used the poison king’s newly developed poison. In order to make the antidote, I had spent
some time.” Du Xiao Li said, “Grandma Han, how about I examine your body for you first?”
“Alright.”
Du Xiao Li went forward and took the Grand Empress Dowager’s pulse, following which she retreated a step and
said, “Grandma Han’s body has been maintained quite well these last few days. The situation is much better than
before. That gu is already about to run out of energy. In a few days, we should be able to remove the gu.”

“Really?” Meng Gu somewhat excitedly said.
Du Xiao Li smiled and nodded.
“Li girl, go rest first. These dark circles under your eyes are about to cover your entire face!” Right now, Du Xiao Li
was close to her, so the Grand Empress Dowager was able to see the concentrated dark circles on her face.
Du Xiao Li was indeed very tired, and seeing the Grand Empress Dowager’s body not have any abnormalities, she
thus nodded her head and said, “Alright, then I’ll go sleep first.”
Du Xiao Li returned to her own room. Qiao Zhu brought her lunch, letting her eat first before sleeping. And Ying
Ge brought her water to wash her face and rinse her mouth.
“These few days, I have troubled you two with the matters on the estate.” Du Xiao Li said to Ying Ge and Qiao Zhu
as she washed her face.
“When miss isn’t here, having the madams and miss served well is the only way for us to not embarrass miss.” Ying
Ge said with a smile, “Just, without miss here, Qiao Zhu really missed miss.”
“That’s right, miss was gone for this many days, even Ying Ge wasn’t used to it, muttering every day when miss will
return!” Qiao Zhu heard Ying Ge tease her and quickly retorted.
“This time, it was mainly because I couldn’t just leave things here, that’s why I had you two stay here. Speaking of
which, it seems Ying Ge has never been separated from me for this long before!” Du Xiao Li said with a laugh.
When she finished eating, Du Xiao Li climbed onto her bed to sleep. Before falling asleep, she told them to let Xia
Yuan rest when she returned. Following her around these last few days have really tired Xia Yuan too.
This time, Du Xiao Li slept all the way until evening. By the time she opened her eyes, the light of the sunset have
already dyed the entire estate red. She lied in bed, wanting to see the sunlight shooting in from the window, yet
instead saw a figure that shouldn’t have appeared here.
T/N: Sorry for leaving on cliff ahhahaahha but the word count was exact 1700 here. Though I feel it should be
pretty obvious who appeared based on the title.
