I became a fool who is married to a villain

Chapter 21

Hua Zuiyue was not as angry as Chujiu.

Familiar with Ye Yuehui's character, she remained calm upon learning he had sent the poisonous Luo Zhuli.

However, she suspected that Ye Yuehui had more in mind than simply poisoning her. Hua Zuiyue narrowed her eyes and examined the Luo Zhuli carefully.

The quality of the Luo Zhuli was undeniably high and far from ordinary.

Aside from that, there appeared to be nothing special. Yet, since Ye Yuehui had sent it, there had to be a purpose.

Her eyes flickered with thought. She handed the box to Chujiu. "Check the snacks and tea in the kitchen for any trace of Luo Zhuli."

"Yes."

Despite her anger, Chujiu obeyed.

Whether by chance or cooperation, Chujiu’s investigation progressed smoothly, and she quickly obtained information from a fairy maid.

It turned out that Luo Zhuli wasn’t directly used in the snacks and tea; instead, a small amount of spiritual liquid extracted from it had been added.

Hua Zuiyue tapped the table lightly, a smile forming on her lips.

She pondered who Ye Yuehui aimed to eliminate through her poisoning.

With a sigh, she accepted that no matter who his target was, it had nothing to do with her. She was merely a pawn in his game.

Accepting her role, Hua Zuiyue stood up abruptly. "Chujiu, take the Luo Zhuli to Liluo and ask about its origin."

Chujiu hurried away and soon returned.

The next day, Liluo arrived with news.

The box of Luo Zhuli had originally been sent by His Highness, the Sixth Prince. The poison inside was a chronic one targeting divine bodies. Because Hua Zuiyue was a demon, the reaction was more severe.

Hua Zuiyue was speechless.

A poison that was chronic for divine beings but deadly for demons?

That was just unfair!

Hua Zuiyue was filled with anger and asked someone to bring the box of Luo Zhuli to determine what kind of poison it contained.

But when Chujiu went to retrieve it, she discovered that the poisonous Luo Zhuli was missing.

"It's gone?"

Hua Zuiyue raised her eyebrows, puzzled. "It was here. How did it suddenly disappear?"

"After the box of Luo Zhuli was brought back, I had the fairy maid store it. But today, when I checked, the contents were gone."

Hua Zuiyue was only slightly surprised and then dismissed the matter. "If it's lost, so be it. It's just a box of poisonous Luo Zhuli. If someone wanted it that badly, let them have it."

But Chujiu's face showed disapproval. "Your Highness, that box of Luo Zhuli is evidence. We can't let you suffer in vain."

Someone must have wanted to destroy the evidence!

Hua Zuiyue lay idle for a day before the Huahua System reappeared with a new task.

[Ding! The main task requires the host to go to Ye Yuehui's residence to achieve the purpose of sleeping together. (Plot interpretation: Ye Yuehui took advantage of the original owner, causing her to be poisoned. The original owner decided to take the initiative and make Ye Yuehui fall in love with her.)]
