Chapter 4113 Suspicion
Hearing her ask, Feng Jiu recalled last night’s scene and couldn’t help but smile, saying, “When you went to the back of the house to pick vegetables yesterday, did you eat Rosary Peas?”
....
Ye Feifei was stunned, “Rosary Peas? What is that? I didn’t eat it!”
“It’s a kind of wild fruit, a tiny one only as big as a finger, red in colour.” Feng Jiu said slowly, with a smile in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feifei then suddenly realised, slapping one hand on her head, “Oh! That’s the one that Master is talking about! Behind the house there were indeed a few children picking and eating those. They even handed some to me, saying that it was sweet and sour, I tasted some, they are quite appetising.”
Quite appetising?
Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows, looked at her askance, and laughed lightly, “It is quite appetising, just that the aftertaste is a bit big.”
“What aftertaste?” Ye Feifei asked in confusion.
“After eating the Rosary Peas you drank the crucian carp soup, once the two were mixed it became an extremely powerful aphrodisiac.” Feng Jiu pursed her lips and said, watching her face expression change, then she softly said, “That’s why last night you soaked in cold water all night, and I used silver needles to help you purge the medicinal properties out, so it’s not much of a problem, but in the future, outside things can’t be eaten indiscriminately, there are some things that alone one doesn’t form the medicinal properties, if they are mixed with certain things, but it will become a very powerful drug, and even be highly poisonous.”
Hearing this, Ye Feifei’s eyes were filled with fear, she took a deep breath and said thankfully, “Luckily I was following Master, or else I would have been finished.”
“Master.” Du Fan walked over and when he saw Feng Jiu he put away his fan and saluted towards her and called out. As soon as this fan was put away, he heard Ye Feifei’s surprised voice from the side.
“Huh? What happened to your mouth?” Ye Feifei looked at Du Fan’s slightly swollen lips that he had previously covered with the fan, and the skin on it was broken and smeared with medicine.
No wonder this guy kept covering his mouth with the fan, so he bit his lip? However, it doesn’t look like he bit it himself!
It was fine if she didn’t mention it, but when she did, Du Fan’s face darkened. He looked at her askance and was about to speak, when he heard the Master’s voice come with a few hints of laughter and teasing.
“Feifei ah, his lips were bitten by you! How can you deny it after kissing and biting him?” Feng Jiu spoke lightly, looking at the two with a dramatic expression.
“Wh, what?” Ye Feifei was petrified after hearing her words, staring at Du Fan’s lips with an unbelievable expression, “I, I bit it? Hiss! This can’t be possible! How could I have done something worse than a beast!”
“Snort!” Du Fan snorted and said without any good humour, “You also know that you are worse than a beast eh?”
“Just you, the little fair boy who flaunts with a broken fan all day long, how desperate do I have to be to lay my hands on you!” Ye Feifei glared at him, looking at his stoic face, and at that moment quickly came to Feng Jiu’s side: “Master, you’re joking, right? How could I let this b.a.s.t.a.r.d take advantage of me?”
Feng Jiu, listening to the words of the two, couldn’t help but laugh out, she glanced at Du Fan who had an iron face, and then looked at Ye Feifei who had a disgusted look on his face, and laughed softly, saying, “Didn’t I say earlier? You’ve been hit by the aphrodisiac, that’s why you did that kind of thing.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Feifei exhaled lightly, patted her chest with one hand with relief and exclaimed, “I knew it, it must have been in a situation where I couldn’t even control myself, or else I wouldn’t have done that kind of thing.”
