After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 222: Cooperation Rejected

But despite the criticism, the problem still needs to be solved.

Looking at the solemn plaque of the Jinglie Prince's Mansion in front of him, the doctor sighed and spent almost half an hour mentally preparing himself before finally mustering his courage to step forward: "Young man, may I ask if the Princess Consort is here?"

The doctor had visited a few days ago, so the gatekeeper was not unfamiliar with him.

Remembering Lin Rusi's instructions, his attitude became even more respectful, and he immediately replied, "The princess has been waiting for a long time. Please come with me."

Unexpectedly, Lin Rusi had been waiting for him. The doctor was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly nodded: "Okay!"

The two remained silent the entire way, and the doctor, still harboring some concerns, was not quite ready to react when they arrived at the main hall.

"Is everything done?"

He only snapped out of his reverie when Lin Rusi's gentle voice rang out: "Your Highness, there was a slight mishap."

He kept his head bowed tightly, his voice trembling slightly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi finally looked up, somewhat surprised: "What happened?"

The antidote was prepared by Wanxia long ago, so there shouldn't be any problems.

At this point, the doctor was even more on the verge of tears: "Sun Jiayi, she...she..."

He stammered and repeated himself several times before he could express himself clearly: "They didn't trust the antidote I gave them, so they fed the pill to the cat!"

"What did you say?"

As if she hadn't heard clearly, Lin Rusi's lips twitched, and she repeated, "Feed it to the cat?"

"Correct!"

Fearing her wrath, the doctor kept his head down and spoke softer and softer.

idiot!

Lin Rusi scoffed, showing even more disdain for Sun Jiayi's actions.

He does have some cleverness, but unfortunately he didn't use it for good.

She remained silent, and the doctor dared not utter a sound.

He cautiously raised his head, noticing that Lin Rusi's face didn't show much anger, before tentatively speaking, "This humble citizen has come to ask for the antidote again."

If he could, he really didn't want to get involved in this mess.

But he knew that if he didn't heal the scars on Sun Jiayi's face...

I'm afraid neither Lin Rusi nor Sun Jiayi will let him off easily.

If I had known, I should never have gotten involved with them.

The doctor inwardly groaned, but maintained a respectful expression on his face.

Lin Rusi picked up her teacup, took a sip of tea, and then said, "I don't think she wants to get her face healed."

A simple sentence instantly made the doctor's face fall.

He knew that Lin Rusi wasn't as easy to talk to as she seemed.

"Your Highness..." the doctor called out.

Lin Rusi waved her hand: "I can give her the antidote, but she must learn a lesson from it. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of my good intentions?"

The doctor was taken aback, somewhat confused by her meaning.

However, Lin Rusi did not keep him in doubt for long. She quickly looked at Wanxia and said, "Get another antidote."

As she spoke, she turned her head and said, "But you can't give it to Sun Jiayi so quickly. I think she should learn a lesson and know what she should and shouldn't do."

Following instructions, Wanxia took out another black pill from the bag at her waist. At the same time, she whispered, "That's right, she's really too stupid. The antidote was delivered to her, and she didn't know how to cherish it. She wasted so many of my good medicinal herbs."

Each of her antidotes was carefully prepared using the finest medicinal herbs, requiring countless hours of effort.

That idiot Sun Jiayi actually dared to feed the cat; it's simply unforgivable.

The doctor carefully took the medicine and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will be careful this time and won't let her waste it again."

"Don't rush to give it to her."

Lin Rusi shook her head, a mysterious smile on her face: "Wait three days."

She spoke casually, but the doctor frowned.

Sun Jiayi doesn't have a good temper. If this drags on any longer, he's really afraid his shop will be smashed up.

However, once Lin Rusi made a decision, he had no choice but to accept it, no matter how unwilling he was.

He reached out and took the antidote, then lowered his head: "Yes!"

……

Meanwhile, Princess Lin'an still hadn't given up on taking revenge on Lin Rusi.

Unable to find Luo Lan, she set her sights on Sun Jiayi.

At the same time, she didn't believe that Sun Jiayi, given her personality, wouldn't hold a grudge against Lin Rusi's victims.

Princess Lin'an was full of confidence and soon arrived at the Duke of Jin's mansion with her entourage.

Little did she know that Sun Jiayi, who had once again missed her chance to get her face treated, was currently throwing a tantrum at home!

"Where is the doctor? Why hasn't he come yet?"

Sun Jiayi slammed the teacup to the ground, her expression contorted, her already disfigured face becoming even more ferocious and terrifying.

The maid stood cautiously at the door and whispered, "The doctor said that the antidote has complicated ingredients and he can't make it in a short time."

"waste."

But it would have been better if she hadn't said anything; once she did, Sun Jiayi was filled with regret.

If she had known this would happen, she would have preferred to be poisoned to death rather than feed the medicine to the cat.

She was panting heavily and said in a hoarse voice, "Go and urge him to stop doing anything and focus on making the antidote for me. If he succeeds, I will reward him handsomely."

Startled by her appearance, the maid hurriedly nodded and prepared to leave.

Just then, a servant came running over: "Miss, Princess Lin'an has arrived."

Upon hearing the name, Sun Jiayi turned around: "What...what is she doing here?"

"She said... she has something important to discuss with you," the servant stammered.

But Sun Jiayi had no patience at this point: "What is it?"

"Princess Jinglie." The servant cautiously raised his head.

But this instantly enraged Sun Jiayi. She glared at her fiercely and sneered, "What a joke! She actually dares to provoke Lin Rusi again. She really has forgotten the pain of her past mistakes."

What's even more infuriating is that this woman, so ignorant of her own limitations, was incredibly lucky; her face was cured so easily.

Thinking of this, Sun Jiayi was both angry and resentful: "Let her go, we have nothing to do with each other."

"Yes!"

Startled by her angry expression, the servant shrank back and hurriedly left.

But when he relayed Sun Jiayi's words to Princess Lin'an, it provoked a strong reaction from her: "She refuses?"

How can it be?

Sun Jiayi was also ambushed, so why doesn't she feel any resentment at all?

"Yes, Your Highness, please return." The servant bowed his head and hurriedly spoke.

"Damn it, she's such a coward."

Princess Lin'an stomped her feet hard on the ground, staring intently at the doorway, and was about to rush in.

But before she could take a step, she was stopped by a servant: "Princess, Miss does not receive guests."

Unexpectedly, she wouldn't even give me a chance to meet her.

Princess Lin'an looked as if she had been slapped hard in the face, her face turning pale and then red.

She stared wide-eyed at the tightly closed gates of the mansion and cursed angrily, "That damned Sun Jiayi, how dare she show such disrespect to this princess! I will make you regret this, you bitch!"
