How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 579: Tang Zan Was Poisoned!

Tang Zan smiled: "Then let’s bathe together."

Shu’er looked at the pool and instinctively shook her head.

But how could she resist Tang Zan’s strength? She was quickly pulled into the pool by Tang Zan for a bath.

Shu’er was speechless; she felt really overwhelmed.

Her body couldn’t take it.

This was even with her body having been transformed by the Spiritual Spring Water.

Shu’er leaned against the edge of the pool, looking at Tang Zan.

"I was always wondering, why did you come? Missing me probably isn’t the most important reason, right?"

Tang Zan smiled and kissed Shu’er’s nose.

"Missing you is one reason, but I also had to come. Otherwise, if I stayed under the same roof with Chaoyang all day, you might feel uneasy, and someone might whisper unpleasant things in your ear."

Shu’er smiled at Tang Zan: "So you knew?"

Tang Zan nodded: "I’ve seen through Grandmother and Chaoyang’s plan long ago. They simply want to separate us to give Chaoyang a chance."

Tang Zan could tell from Shu’er’s tone that she had also guessed it, and couldn’t help but feel a bit angry at their tactics.

"You knew all this?"

Shu’er smiled at Tang Zan.

"Yes, I knew, but I couldn’t stop it. The excuse Grandmother gave was irrefutable."

Tang Zan pouted: "You trust me that much."

Shu’er hugged Tang Zan’s neck: "I trust you, but I’m worried about Chaoyang’s tricks creating a rift between us."

"Recently, people have been constantly whispering in my ear about how wonderful Chaoyang is and how affectionate you two were when you were young."

"But I don’t believe them; I only want to hear it from you."

Tang Zan kissed Shu’er.

"You’re right not to believe them. There’s nothing between Chaoyang and me. We hardly saw each other when we were young, and it’s only because of the Emperor’s marriage decree that she’s clinging to me now."

Shu’er’s mood lifted significantly, and she beamed with laughter.

"That’s good."

At first, Chaoyang’s attempts to attract him were subtle.

Gradually, they became increasingly overt.

She somehow managed to poison Tang Zan and then approached him.

Tang Zan’s eyes were already red with restraint, and when he saw Chaoyang, his eyes were bloodshot.

"Get out!"

Chaoyang was almost in tears. She had been adored since childhood and had never suffered such indignity.

Yet she had to rush forward to embrace Tang Zan, only to be pushed away by him before she even touched him.

"Brother Zan, I can help cure your poison. I’m willing to. This poison is too strong; if not treated, you’ll die!"

She lunged forward again, only to be roughly pushed away by Tang Zan.

Tang Zan realized that whatever this was, its effect was indeed incredibly fierce, heatwave after heatwave.

All he could think about now was Shu’er.

He wanted to be with Shu’er; he couldn’t have any ambiguity with Chaoyang.

He preferred not to touch her at all.

But with Putuo Temple being so large, Tang Zan found that Shu’er wasn’t at the usual place for prayers.

He grabbed a little monk.

"Where is Shu’er?"

The little monk pointed to the back mountain.

"Ms. Pei went to the back mountain to pick herbs."

As soon as this was said, Tang Zan released the little monk and stumbled towards the back mountain.

He searched for a long time at the back mountain but couldn’t find her.

He was already so uncomfortable that he felt like exploding.

Finally, Tang Zan had to use Qinggong to stand higher and search.

But the more he activated Qinggong, the stronger the effect became.

His eyes were burning red, and a thread of sanity was about to snap.

At this moment, Tang Zan finally saw Shu’er’s figure.

Shu’er was elegantly picking herbs by a stream, her beauty striking—a woman he had thought about all the way.

Seeing her, Tang Zan’s thread of sanity snapped instantly.

He flew towards Shu’er.

Shu’er heard the sound of the whistling wind, narrowed her eyes, and had just posed for an attack when her waist was quickly hugged, and they rolled on the grass.

She let out a soft cry, ready to attack, but then she smelled a familiar scent.

Tang Zan’s hot breath sprayed on Shu’er’s neck.

"Shu’er, it’s me."

Shu’er, seeing Tang Zan like this, felt both tender and anxious, and she almost hated it.

"Who, who poisoned you?"

Tang Zan only focused on his actions, trying to tear Shu’er’s clothes but couldn’t.

Apart from possessing her, he couldn’t think of anything else.

Shu’er’s teeth were gritted with anger; she had just felt Tang Zan’s pulse, beating much faster than usual.

How strong did the poison have to be for Tang Zan to be like this?

"Is it Chaoyang?"

Tang Zan kissed Shu’er’s lips.

"With you by my side, why would I think about anyone else?"

Shu’er’s mind quickly turned into a mush.

...

Tang Zan had already put on his clothes and sat up.

Now, apart from a slight flush on his face, the poison had been cured.

Shu’er angrily bit Tang Zan.

"Tell me, if you weren’t with me, would Chaoyang have succeeded?"

Tang Zan said, "No, because I would have found you for sure."

Shu’er pouted, thinking how could reality be so optimistic?

Without mentioning anything else, just the fact that Chaoyang and Old Madam Tang joined forces, there would always be opportunities for exploitation, especially with Chaoyang knowing how to please the Old Madam so well.

There’s no way to guard against thieves every day.

Especially when there’s an inside traitor covering for them, such things can’t be prevented.

She couldn’t always keep an eye on Tang Zan and Chaoyang, could she? How would she live then?

Shu’er said, "Tang Zan, you have to explain to your grandmother, or else this Chaoyang thing will happen again."

Tang Zan gently pecked Shu’er, eyes full of tenderness. He knew Shu’er had been wronged during this time.

"Don’t worry, I will handle it."

Shu’er rested for a while and finally regained some strength, walking back with Tang Zan.

Shu’er put the herbs in her space, and Tang Zan carried her down the mountain.

Otherwise, with how steep the mountain was and her sore waist and legs, she might have stumbled.

Tang Zan operated Qinggong and finally reached the foot of the mountain.

Shu’er had fallen asleep from exhaustion on Tang Zan’s back.

Upon entering the incense room, they saw Princess Chaoyang rummaging through Shu’er’s incense room.

Yinxing was tied up by Chaoyang’s people, with flushed cheeks, obviously having been beaten.

Xuan Liu had also escorted Tang Zan away from afar.

Yinxing’s eyes reddened upon seeing Shu’er and Tang Zan, timidly calling out.

"Prince, Princess Consort, this servant failed to stop them."

Shu’er felt a pang of sadness; she patted Tang Zan’s shoulder, and he put her down.

She walked to the maids, rescuing Yinxing from them, and pointed at those people.

"Who hit Yinxing?"
