Chapter 319: Nothing Was Stealed
Who could it be?
Lin Ru couldn't understand. Who could be the one who knew their whereabouts and deliberately arranged for these people to hunt them down?
She frowned, a vague unease creeping into her heart.
She knew that the mysterious person behind it all wouldn't let them off easily!
"stop!"
Thinking of this, Lin Rusi rebuked sharply: "I am the dignified Princess Consort of Jinglie. If you have arrested the wrong person, you will not be able to bear the consequences!"
The leading soldier clearly didn't take it seriously, and just snorted coldly: "If you really are Princess Jinglie, then I am Prince Jinglie!"
"you!"
Lin Rusi's face turned cold, and she looked somewhat embarrassed.
"I advise you to confess honestly. Take out what you stole."
The man's words carried a certainty, as if he wouldn't be satisfied until he found something on them.
Seeing this, Lin Rusi frowned and remained silent for a long time before coldly saying, "We didn't steal anything! If you continue like this, I won't let you off the hook!"
As she spoke, she glanced at them coldly.
The two looked at each other, and the man just smiled slightly, saying nonchalantly, "Then I'll wait for Princess Jinglie's revenge."
"Guards! Arrest them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several soldiers rushed in.
Lin Rusi blocked the doorway, preventing them from touching Gao Tuan and Li Jingyang.
"I advise you to tell the truth. If you do, we might be able to treat you leniently!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi merely frowned, paused, and then continued, "I told you, I am Princess Jinglie, and I would never stoop to stealing your things. It is you who are doing this."
At this point, her tone suddenly changed abruptly, and she sneered, "The token is right here, yet none of you recognize it. Have you considered the consequences if we leave?"
The soldiers were clearly frightened by Lin Rusi's terrifying appearance, and their eyes widened in the next instant.
But after realizing what she meant, she immediately said, "Really? Then why don't you just make sure you can't get out?"
In an instant, Lin Rusi's brows furrowed even deeper.
"Men! Tie her up! If she doesn't confess, beat her until she does!"
The officers and soldiers gave the order, which was clearly an attempt to force a confession through torture.
Now, Lin Rusi was truly enraged: "Despicable!"
The soldiers ignored her. One of them walked over with a whip and clicked his tongue, saying, "Young lady, why don't you just tell the truth? Why do you have to go against us? If you speak up, no one will do anything to you."
Lin Rusi bit her lower lip tightly; what could she say?
Besides, they didn't steal anything in the first place!
On the other side, Li Jingyang also looked over.
Just as the sharp whip cracked, Lin Rusi subconsciously closed her eyes; however, the pain she had imagined did not come.
The next moment, a clear voice rang out: "Let's see who dares?!"
"And who are you? Accomplice! Arrest us both."
Startled by the sudden turn of events, the officer immediately spoke again.
Seeing this, Ye Ruoruo immediately dodged away, and at the same time, flung out the powder, saying coldly, "This powder was specially prepared for you. I advise you not to act rashly. The faster you move, the faster it will take effect, and the more itchy you will become."
Of course, some people didn't believe it and scoffed, but before they could even step forward, their legs suddenly gave way and they burst into laughter.
Seeing their comical appearance made Ye Ruoruo feel truly satisfied: "What? Do you still want to force a confession? I advise you to leave, and I might consider giving you the antidote, otherwise..."
Ye Ruoruo snorted coldly, the meaning of which was quite obvious.
Now, the soldiers hesitated. Even if they stood still, they all began to feel itchy all over. Who could bear it?
"Fine, you just wait and see. I'll let you go today."
However, after saying that, the soldier turned his head and whispered, "Once we get the antidote, we'll..."
Ye Ruoruo saw through their thoughts at a glance and snorted coldly: "I advise you not to make any rash moves. The effects of the drug won't wear off so quickly. Besides, I can drug you again at any time!"
"You woman!"
The group was somewhat annoyed, but they dared not make any rash moves, fearing that Ye Ruoruo might really drug them again.
The officers and soldiers left quickly, not daring to stay.
Ye Ruoruo didn't say anything, but couldn't help looking over, her eyes filled with seriousness.
Lin Rusi couldn't care less about anything else; she just looked over anxiously and asked, "How is it?! Has the antidote been made yet?"
Her eyes were filled with urgency. Ye Ruoruo didn't say anything, but turned and walked to the other side. Her process of making the antidote was interrupted.
Now, it seems the antidote won't be made well. Ye Ruoruo sighed, and Lin Rusi immediately came to check on the two of them.
Unexpectedly, their situation not only did not improve, but actually got worse.
"Senior sister, when will things get better? Their condition can't wait any longer."
Lin Rusi was really anxious. How could Ye Ruoruo not know?
But she didn't say anything; she just focused on her research.
Just then, Lin Rusi suddenly realized that the two of them were starting to deteriorate again.
Her eyes widened, and she became even more anxious: "Ruo Ruo!"
Ye Ruoruo was also anxious, her hands were trembling, and finally, just when Lin Rusi was about to cry.
"OK OK."
Ye Ruoruo immediately called out and handed over the antidote.
"Quickly!" Lin Rusi immediately fed the two of them the drink.
After waiting for a while, Lin Rusi saw the two slowly wake up and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the antidote was administered in time, and both of them are fine!
At this moment, the two of them were probably still a little dazed, staring blankly at the person in front of them.
It took them a while to come to their senses.
Gao Tuan immediately rushed to Su Xiangqing's side to check on her condition.
Seeing this, Su Xiangqing also breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm so glad you're alright." She smiled and became happy.
Gao Tuan smiled and shook his head: "As long as you're okay, I'm willing to do anything."
Su Xiangqing was so excited that she stood up, but she seemed to be too excited and fainted.
"Qingqing!" Upon hearing the voice, the group immediately turned around.
Holding Su Xiangqing tightly, Gao Tuan looked at Ye Ruoruo for help, his expression extremely urgent.
Ye Ruoruo immediately reached out to take Su Xiangqing's pulse, frowning for a while.
Only after confirming the pulse did he breathe a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, it's just that your emotions were too volatile. It's nothing, you'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
As she spoke, Ye Ruoruo waved her hand.
Seeing that she was alright, Lin Rusi breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're alright. You two should get some rest too."
She walked quickly to Li Jingyang's side, and the man gave her a reassuring look.
Meeting his eyes, Lin Rusi smiled slightly, finally letting out a sigh of relief: "Go and rest. Tonight, I want to go out and check on the situation in the city."
