"So where would she sabotage us?" Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing asked curiously.
The more they thought about it, the more fearful they became. The sudden appearance of such a sinister person at home really made them uneasy about everything.
"I think it must still be the food!" Xiao Fang answered.
If it was about throwing hidden weapons or launching a general attack, she could protect Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing personally; only with the food, she could not; therefore, Chun Yan must have tampered with the food.
"Why? Didn't you just check it?" Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing asked, puzzled.
"Some poisons are made up of multiple substances, so just because no poison was detected in each dish does not mean the food is not poisoned. For example, carp and licorice are not poisonous, but eating them together can result in poisoning," Xiao Fang answered.
"Oh! So that's how it is!" Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing suddenly understood, realizing they had indeed overlooked this.
Next, Xiao Fang conducted an experiment, dividing each dish into several portions and then combining them with other dishes in various combinations; she then used a silver needle to test for reactions.
Chun Yan, standing by, felt a vague unease watching Xiao Fang's method.
Because Xiao Fang's method was correct, when she had administered the poison earlier, she had added a bit to several dishes; if Xiao Fang mixed these dishes together, the poison would form, and the silver needle would turn black.
"What should I do?" Chun Yan was very anxious.
If she fled now, it would be the same as exposing her identity; if she did not flee, once Xiao Fang detected the result, it would still be a dead end for her.
After much consideration, she decided it was more prudent to stay.
The poison had already been destroyed by her, and she believed that as long as she insisted it was not her doing, these three women would be unable to do anything to her.
Before long, Xiao Fang detected poison in the four mixed experimental dishes.
Honestly, the poisoner was very cautious, insisting on dividing four non-toxic drugs among the dishes;
An average person, or someone lacking patience, would definitely not detect the poisoned ingredients in these dishes.
Ironclad evidence, Chun Yan could no longer deny it; then she slammed the table and confronted Chun Yan, "What do you have to say now?"
Frightened, Chun Yan knelt on the ground and explained pitifully, "Miss, I didn't place the poison, it really wasn't me."
"Still daring to argue, do you believe I would kill you?" Xiao Fang pointed at Chun Yan and asked angrily.
However, Chun Yan was very calm, continuing to parry, "Miss, killing me is useless! I really didn't place the poison."
"If it wasn't you, then who was it?" Xiao Fang continued to question.
"I don't know," Chun Yan answered.
"Just now during the cooking, wasn't it only you and Mama Huang? It definitely wasn't Mama Huang, so there's only one possibility, and that's you."
"Miss, you can't be so arbitrary and wrong a good person. I'm definitely not the poisoner, I can stake my life on that; whether it's Mama Huang, I don't know, but one thing I'm sure of is that the poisoner must have entered the kitchen," Chun Yan continued to stubbornly deny, refusing to admit it.
"Fine! You deathly girl, you really know how to play tough; it seems you won't confess unless taught a lesson."
Having said this, Xiao Fang stood up with a vile expression and approached the kneeling Chun Yan, then kicked her over.
"Speak! Was it you who placed the poison?"
"No!" Chun Yan endured the pain and answered.
Since she had chosen this path, enduring some pain was inevitable; however, the feeling of being bullied was very unpleasant.
All along, it had always been she who bullied others. When had it become her turn to be bullied by others? It was utterly unforgivable.
At that moment, she swore in her heart that as soon as she had her revenge, she would do everything in her power to find an opportunity to kill that despicable woman, Fangfang.
"Damn, it seems the punishment isn't severe enough yet!"
Fangfang admired Chun Yan's stubbornness, but while Chun Yan had her Zhang Liangji, Fangfang had her wall ladder; she didn't believe Chun Yan wouldn't confess.
So, she took Jiajia and the others back to the room, then dug out the long-treasured Myriad Ants Pill.
"Hehe! With this elixir in hand, I don't believe that wretched girl won't confess," Fangfang was quite proud.
Seeing the elixir in Fangfang's hand, Jiajia and Qingqing were curious. The name of the elixir seemed odd, not like a normal elixir; so they curiously asked, "Fangfang, what does this elixir do?"
"Sister Jiajia, sister Qingqing, this elixir possesses the legendary ability to make people wish for death, specifically designed to deal with disobedient and stubborn enemies," Fangfang replied, her face brimming with a triumphant smile.
The creation of this elixir was something she had learned from her master, and it was a personal item of hers, thus giving her a sense of achievement.
"The legendary function that makes one wish for death, could it make the consumer feel as if millions of ants were crawling and biting all over their body?"p>
Considering the name Myriad Ants Pill, Jiajia and Qingqing easily associated it with this form of punishment.
"You guessed right, that's exactly what it does," Fangfang responded.
"Hehe! Fangfang, you're really vicious, carrying such an elixir with you. Tell us! Who were you originally planning to use it on?" Jiajia and Qingqing seized Fangfang for an interrogation.
In fact, they had already guessed the answer; they asked only to make Fangfang confess personally.
"Who else? It was meant to deal with the disobedient big villain, Yifan," Fangfang answered shyly.
Truthfully, when she initially left Peach Blossom Valley, she hadn't wanted to bring such an elixir at all; but considering that she would have to interact with Lin Yifan daily, it seemed better to carry it for self-defense. That way, if she found herself unable to physically confront Lin Yifan, she could use this elixir to punish him.
"It seems Fangfang is a Demon Angel after all! And here I thought she was a simple and kind Cinderella," Jiajia joked.
"Sister Jiajia, how is this bad? I call this legitimate defense, okay?" Fangfang retorted, her face turning red.
"Look at you, getting all worked up. Alright, alright, let's stop teasing you, hurry up and punish that wretched girl. Let's see if she confesses!"
"Yes!"
After chatting, the three of them went downstairs together, heading to the dining hall, ready to take action against Chun Yan.
During the time Fangfang and the others were searching for the elixir, Chun Yan was very conflicted inside; in fact, if she wanted to leave, she could have escaped; but if she left, it would be difficult to infiltrate the Lin residence again on another day.
So, after thinking it over, she decided against it. For the sake of her father's great vengeance, she would endure no matter what.
Soon, Fangfang and the others arrived at the dining hall.
Staring at Chun Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, they were somewhat surprised; they hadn't expected this wretched girl not to have run away; but that was also good, as they could now use the most ruthless methods available.
