Chapter 93: Shen Anyu, You Don't Want to Die Either, Do You?
Shen Anyu looked at Su Hongmian with a half-smile that spoke volumes. The once-proud Eldest Miss of the Su Family, who had stormed in ready to tear him apart, was now completely undone.
Under the table, Shen Anyu's hand had been relentless. He had explored every inch of her smooth, warm skin, teasing and caressing until she was breathless.
Su Hongmian's head was bowed so low it was almost under the table, hiding her face. Her delicate body trembled with aftershocks, her pretty face was flushed crimson, and her beautiful eyes were filled with panic and a lingering haze of arousal.
She was biting her lip so hard it was almost bleeding, trying to contain the whimpers that threatened to escape.
At this moment, where was Su Hongmian's imposing demeanor from earlier? The frosty queen had melted into a puddle.
Shen Anyu ate his meal with a joyous expression, savoring the braised duck as if nothing was happening.
Jiang Linlin sat opposite them, utterly bewildered and confused. She sensed the tension, the heat radiating from Su Hongmian, but she was too innocent to understand exactly what was transpiring beneath the white tablecloth.
Su Hongmian had turned into a timid little quail. She had transformed from an imposing main wife catching a mistress into a docile little wife who had been thoroughly disciplined. There was no trace of arrogance left; only a soft, pliable tenderness remained!
"Mianmian... are you still angry?"
Shen Anyu looked at Su Hongmian with a smile, asking leisurely. He brought his hand up from under the table, near his nose, as if lightly sniffing the lingering scent of her arousal.
Su Hongmian's eyes widened in horror. She kicked him under the table, hard.
"Bastard! You... I... I will never forgive you! You two-timing scoundrel!"
Su Hongmian looked at Shen Anyu with watery eyes. Her voice was weak, lacking any real bite. After Shen Anyu finally let go, she recovered slightly and said the words, grinding her silver teeth.
Damn it! This bad guy actually did such outrageous things to her! In a public restaurant! And right in front of Jiang Linlin's face!
If Jiang Linlin discovered what just happened... Su Hongmian felt she would rather die of shame right there.
"Young Master. We caught this sneaking fellow."
Just then, the door to the private room opened.
Aunt Xiao walked in, dragging a battered and bruised Xia Liu by the collar. She threw him onto the carpet in front of Shen Anyu and reported respectfully.
The human skin mask Xia Liu wore had been torn off, revealing his true, swollen face.
Su Hongmian was startled. She looked at the intruder, her anger momentarily forgotten. She had a good memory and immediately recognized him, exclaiming in surprise:
"It's you?"
Su Hongmian had some impression of Xia Liu, that rogue "Country Divine Doctor."
At that time, she was out shopping and saw Xia Liu. He was wearing black cloth shoes, old pants, a white vest, and a straw hat—looking like a migrant worker. He had been lewdly harassing girls on the street and had even tried to pick her up with crude lines.
Later, Xia Liu displayed his [Extraordinary Medical Skill], curing a middle-aged man who had an epileptic seizure on the street with just a few needles. He was then taken away by the police for practicing medicine illegally without a license.
That day was also the day Su Hongmian and Shen Anyu first met. It left a deep impression!
But now... what was going on? Why was he here? And why was he beaten to a pulp?
Su Hongmian looked at the badly beaten Xia Liu, and then at Shen Anyu, who was called "Young Master" by the terrifying woman who dragged him in. She felt confused and bewildered.
And Jiang Linlin's pure and delicate little face also turned pale. She looked at the blood on the floor, her eyes red as she looked at Shen Anyu, tears streaming down her face in fear.
"Brother Shen..."
Shen Anyu patted the two girls' hands, comforting them gently.
"Don't worry. I have a way. No need to be concerned."
At this point, Shen Anyu looked coldly at Xia Liu. His gaze was icy, devoid of the warmth he showed his women.
He slowly said:
"You made my Mianmian and Linlin so worried. This time... I will properly deal with you."
In reality, Shen Anyu was overjoyed.
With the monitoring of the [Nanometer Monitoring Robot], every move of Xia Liu was under Shen Anyu's control. He knew exactly what Xia Liu had done in the kitchen.
As for the potent poison in the rice wine?
Shen Anyu, who now possessed [Extraordinary Medical Skill] and [Extraordinary Poison Skill] far more formidable than Xia Liu's after absorbing the Divine Doctor's knowledge, had long identified it.
It was the [Seven Emotions Severing Pulse Powder].
To be frank, Shen Anyu had at least seven or eight ways to resolve it instantly. He could expel it with Qi, neutralize it with herbs, or simply let his [God-Level Steel Body] consume it.
But Shen Anyu drank it anyway.
He drank it as part of his plan because Xia Liu's actions were a heaven-sent assist! A catalyst to resolve the conflict between his women.
A Shura field? Two little swallows fighting?
No. With this poison, he could turn it into a bonding experience.
Of course, Shen Anyu decided not to keep this extremely dishonest Child of Destiny, the Country Divine Doctor Xia Liu, around anymore. He was too annoying.
If he hadn't caused trouble or jumped to conclusions, Shen Anyu might have let him live a bit longer to farm more points. But now that he was seeking his own death so aggressively, Shen Anyu wouldn't be polite.
At most, it would just waste some Destiny Value to kill him early!
"Hehehe! Shen! You have a noble status and can indeed attract many Divine Doctors with your money!"
Xia Liu spat blood onto the carpet. He looked at Shen Anyu, threatening him smugly despite his broken body.
"But I tell you! Those so-called Divine Doctors can't solve it! They can't even identify what that potent poison is!"
"That was the most potent poison passed down by my grandfather! Capable of even severely injuring a [Martial Dao Grandmaster]!"
"Let alone solving the [Seven Emotions Severing Pulse Powder], even identifying it... there are probably only a few people in the vast Yanxia who can do it!"
The [Seven Emotions Severing Pulse Powder].
It was made with Heart-Breaking Grass and six other highly toxic ingredients as its main components. It had ever-changing medicinal properties. It entered the pulse and meridians through the "Seven Emotions"—joy, anger, worry, thought, grief, fear, and fright.
It primarily attacked the five zang organs and six fu organs, and had a total of forty-nine variations depending on the emotional state of the victim!
If the specific poison formula was not known, even Xia Liu himself might not have a solution!
Xia Liu was supremely confident in his heart. Under heaven, no one had higher medical skill than him. No one could solve it without his help!
Although his Martial Arts cultivation was not very strong, his medical skill and [Extraordinary Poison Skill] surpassed his teachers, and even his deceased grandfather praised him highly.
"Hehe... Shen Anyu. Your life... the life of the Young Master of the Yanxia Shen Family... the top noble of a thousand-year-old aristocratic family... is now in my, Xia Liu's, hands!"
Xia Liu stood up arrogantly, ignoring the pain in his ribs. He looked at Shen Anyu with disdain.
Then, his gaze shifted. He gazed heatedly at Su Hongmian and Jiang Linlin beside Shen Anyu.
His eyes lingered on Su Hongmian's long legs and Jiang Linlin's pure face. Lust burned in his eyes, overcoming his fear.
He said teasingly, licking his bloody lips:
"Hey! Two big beauties! Come and give me a shoulder massage! Right now!"
"Otherwise... your beloved will die a miserable death! He will bleed from all seven orifices and his organs will melt!"
"Shen Anyu! You don't want to die, do you? You have everything! Money, women, power!"
"Let the two big beauties next to you come and serve me! Kneel for me! If I'm in a good mood... I'll consider saving your life!"
"Don't just stand there! My shoulders are sore from your bodyguard's beating! Hurry up!"
