Chapter 145: Love Poison (Part 3)

Most of the people who grew up by the sea were not very fair. When they looked at Liu Sanniang under the sunlight, they felt that she was a fairy who had descended onto the mortal world!

Chu Yan’s expression gradually turned cold. His dark eyes swept across the people looking at Liu Sanniang, and a chill ran down their spine.

The children trembled and ran away in fear. One of the younger ones was about to cry from fear. He pouted and shouted for his parents as he ran.

Chu Yan said in a low voice, “Let’s go.”

Liu Sanniang also felt the change in Chu Yan’s emotions. She swallowed her saliva and walked forward, thinking that when Chu Yan didn’t smile, he was simply a devil.

He still looked good when he smiled, like a scholar. If he wore a white robe, he’d look strikingly handsome. As the thought crossed Liu Sanninag’s mind, she blushed.

Not long after Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan left, they saw Mr. Xu return.

Mr. Xu’s expression was not very good. He walked to Liu Sanniang’s side and knelt down. He choked and said, “Miss Liu, please save my daughter. She hit my daughter and wants me to prepare for the marriage. She wants my daughter to marry her grandson in three days.”

Liu Sanniang helped Mr. Xu up. “Let’s go back and talk.”

Mr. Xu felt so hopeless that he couldn’t stand up. It was undoubtedly bad news that he was suddenly asked to marry off his daughter.

Zhang Tianyou’s health was poor to begin with. Moreover, he now knew that his daughter had changed her mind and liked Zhang Tianyou because of love poison.

...

After returning to the Xu family, Mr. Xu told Liu Sanniang what had happened after carrying Zhang Tianyou back.

Zhang Tianyou spat out blood and fainted.

Zhang Tianyou’s grandmother immediately asked Xu Xue to put Zhang Tianyou down on the bed. Mr. Xu followed behind. Before he could say anything, Zhang Tianyou’s grandmother slapped Xu Xue.

Mr. Xu was stunned. Zhang Tianyou’s grandmother was called Miao Zhen. She was more than 80 years old and was very strict. Her medical skills were good and she could even do rites. The people in the fishing village respected and feared her, and so did Mr. Xu. However, Miao Zhen had hit his daughter. No matter how afraid he was, he had to ask her why!

Just as he was about to ask Miao Zhen what right she had to hit his daughter, Xu Xue suddenly knelt down. She was not angry at all after being slapped. Instead, she lowered her head and apologized, saying that she did not take good care of Zhang Tianyou.

Mr. Xu was suddenly rendered speechless.

Miao Zhen looked at him indifferently and said, “Mr. Xu, you can leave. Xue will go back in a while. Xue and Tianyou are destined to be together. If they don’t get married, she won’t be able to take good care of Tianyou. Go back and prepare for the wedding. In three days, Tianyou will marry Xue.”

Mr. Xu couldn’t say a word or even retort as if his throat was grabbed tightly by a force. Only after leaving Zhang Tianyou’s house did he come back to his senses.

Mr. Xu felt his blood run cold just thinking about it. He knelt down again and begged her in a choked voice. “Miss Liu, please save my daughter. In the past, I always thought that Miao Zhen was not that powerful, but today, I’m really afraid. Her words were so ridiculous, but I couldn’t even refute her.”

At that moment, he seemed to have become Miao Zhen’s puppet. He would do whatever Miao Zhen asked him to do.

Liu Sanniang helped Mr. Xu up and said, “Let’s wait for Xue to come back.”

Mr. Xu sighed. “I really hope that Zhang Tianyou didn’t fall ill. If he didn’t, Miao Zhen wouldn’t have suddenly asked Xue to marry her grandson.”

Xu Xue had just broken off an engagement ten days ago and now she was forced to marry someone. Mr. Xu was extremely anxious.

Xu Xue threatened to kill herself if Chen Wen didn’t agree to cancel the engagement. He had no choice, but he did not agree to her marrying Zhang Tianyou either. He wanted to wait. Perhaps Zhang Tianyou would die this winter. If Zhang Tianyou died, everything would be fine.

Zhang Tianyou was born with a congenital deficiency. In the past, in winter, he would often be bedridden for a few months. This was very normal for him, and it was apparent that he would die sooner or later.

When Miao Zhen made her request, Mr. Xu felt very helpless. It was the kind of helplessness a mortal felt in the face of an immortal. There was nothing he could do.

Mr. Xu scratched his head in pain. “Miss Liu, Miao Zhen must be the one who poisoned my daughter. She’s a witch and only has one grandson, Zhang Tianyou. It’s her. It must be her. She had a son when she was old. Unfortunately, her son died before Tianyou was born. At that time, her daughter-in-law died in childbirth. I don’t know what method she used to keep Zhang Tianyou alive. When the child was born, his mother was gone. Zhang Tianyou was born with a defect, but he could still live until now…”

The more Mr. Xu thought about it, the more afraid he became. He did not have that ability. This was the first time he deeply understood what Miao Zhen was capable of, and he panicked.

Without the help of a psychic, how could he, a mortal, go against Miao Zhen? Just like today, he was turned into an obedient puppet and couldn’t do anything.

Liu Sanniang said softly, “Uncle Xu, don’t worry. There’s a way. There’s always a way to solve anything. You have to believe that evil can’t defeat good.”

Liu Sanniang’s words seemed to have power and could gently comfort people.

Mr. Xu gradually calmed down and nodded. “Yes, yes, evil can’t defeat good.”

Mr. Xu’s mood gradually improved. He went to feed the horse and cook.

Liu Sanniang did not eat much, nor did Mr. Xu because he was worried sick.

Chu Yan did not even touch his chopsticks.

Mr. Xu tidied up a room for Chu Yan. Liu Sanniang was going to sleep with Xu Xue at night.

When it was dark, Xu Xue finally returned. Her face was a little pale and she seemed to be very tired. When she entered the house, she said, “Father, did you leave food for me? I’m so hungry.”

Mr. Xu’s heart ached when he saw how tired Xu Xue was. “I did, I did.”

After Xu Xue finished eating, she regained some strength and said, “Father, let’s keep the wedding simple. Anyway, I’m going to marry Tianyou. I don’t care about any formality.”

Mr. Xu sighed. “Silly girl, what are you talking about? This is not a marriage. I won’t agree to it.”

Xu Xue frowned. “Father, I must marry Tianyou. I love him. I will die without him. If I can’t marry Zhang Tianyou, I won’t be able to live. Please, don’t stop me.”

Mr. Xu grabbed Xu Xue’s hand and said with tears in his eyes, “Xue, it’s not that I’m deliberately stopping you, but you don’t know that you’re poisoned. You only fell in love with Zhang Tianyou because you were poisoned. Think about it. You grew up with Chen Wen. You’ve never disliked him. Why did you suddenly change your mind…”

Before Mr. Xu could finish, Xu Xue interrupted him. “Father, don’t talk about Chen Wen anymore. Let the past be past. I’ve already fallen in love with Tianyou. Please help me. If I can’t marry Tianyou, I’d rather die.”
