He took off his red robe and wore a coarse white robe. He looked old, with white hair and beard, wrinkles covering his face, and numerous spots. There was no trace of elegance.

He didn’t seem surprised to see Su Yingxue. “What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen an old man before?”

Su Yingxue took a deep breath. “I have, but I’ve never seen an old man who can torment people like you. Did you poison yourself to look that way?”

Otherwise, how could someone in their seventies act like they were in their twenties?

Saint Ruan snorted coldly. “So what? Can’t I?”

“Okay, I’m just afraid you’ll be too heavy-handed. The poison to preserve one’s looks might not be easy to endure.”

Su Yingxue rubbed her nose, admiring Saint Ruan. He was ruthless to others and equally so to himself.

“I’ve been playing with poison for so many years, and I’ve never feared anyone!”

However, as soon as he said this, whenever Su Yingxue approached him, he noticeably stepped back.

Su Yingxue found it amusing. “Haven’t you claimed to never fear anyone before?”

Saint Ruan looked uncomfortable. “You… except for you and your mother!”

“My mother and me? Saint Ruan, are you close to my mother?”

Su Yingxue’s watery eyes blinked at Saint Ruan.

Logically, Saint Ruan was old enough to be her grandfather. However, from the things her mother left behind, she could tell her mother knew Saint Ruan better than anyone else. She even left behind the entire formula of Intoxicating Fragrance for her to use against Saint Ruan.

Saint Ruan was fiddling with his bottles and jars. When he heard this, he suddenly stopped a hint of disappointment in his eyes. “That stubborn girl, Shu Li. I was still thinking about her.”

Back then, when he changed his appearance, many women threw themselves into his arms. He played with them and, in a bad mood, left a bit of poison to torment them.

At that time, he was famous worldwide, and untouchable. Only Long Shuli found him, competing in poison. She even scolded him as a scumbag!

At that time, he didn’t understand what a scumbag was.

Long Shuli stopped and explained to him, “Scumbag is a rotten man who plays with women’s feelings and isn’t accountable to them.”

He snorted disdainfully. “Then there are also scumbag women in this world!”

For instance, his fiancee.

“But that’s not a reason for you to toy with other women. If you disappoint them, it’s one thing, but poisoning them is despicable. To rectify your wicked deeds, I’ll take these matters and punish you!”

“I’ll punish you…”

Saint Ruan immersed himself in memories. This was what Long Shuli had arrogantly said when they first met.

Afterward, they had a competition. Regardless of the poison he used, Long Shuli always managed to cure it. Her detoxification methods and medications were innovative, and he had never seen them before.

They didn’t determine a winner, but they were very interested in each other’s abilities and became a pair of “injurious friends”.

Why “injurious friends”? Because Long Shuli always wanted to take advantage of his carelessness to kill him and avenge those girls.

However, he admired Long Shuli’s medical skills. To stop her vendetta, he had to detoxify each girl one by one and apologize to them.

In those two years, he apologized and was berated and beaten by those girls.

But Long Shuli always stood by, arms crossed, scolding him. “You deserve it!”

He thought to himself, “After all, she’s the one I admire. So be it.”

After that, he stopped playing with girls.

Because his relationship with Long Shuli was much more interesting than that.

One day, he developed an Intoxicating Fragrance because he knew that woman was going to die..
