Eunuch Xi was not worried, Chi Jia had promised that he would deal with the first half of the plan. He had told him that he had his hands on a medicine that was impossible to detect.
When Su Yiqian sent the scentless and tasteless aphrodisiac to the Lai family, she might have never thought that one day she would get a taste of her medicine. Lin Yu who had been looking forward to dealing with the Su family of the capital, went ahead and experimented with the medicine that Su Yiqian sent to the Lai family.
Now the medicine that had been prepared by him was so excellent that even the imperial doctors would not be able to detect it even if they were to check everything thoroughly.
Because of this, Eunuch Xi did not have the smallest burden on his heart when he thought about how he was going to ruin Old Master Su.
Who asked that man to raise such problematic kids? One was much more difficult than the other. Not only were his kids problematic, even he was rather ruthless.
A few days passed by just like that, Old Master Su was busy looking for a skilled imperial physician to look at the arms of his son. Eunuch Xi, who knew that Old Master Su did not like him, purposely started to step in front of the old man. And just as he expected, Old Master Su would tease and taunt him, even going as far as saying that Eunuch Xi seemed to have started to walk like a woman.
The eunuchs who followed behind Eunuch Xi had also heard about the gossip from others where they mentioned that Old Master Su was interested in Eunuch Xi and because he was interested in Eunuch Xi, he turned him into an incomplete man because he wanted to keep Eunuch Xi for himself.
The two of them were running around all the time searching for someone who would be able to help Second Master Su including the Elder Master Su, how could they even know that their family had become a joke?
Even Old Madam Su who stayed in the house all day long while caring about her second son did not know anything.
With no one stopping the rumours, the small kitten that could have been silenced with a twist of Old Master Su's hand became a big tiger. It transformed into a reality that many people started to believe while sympathizing with Eunuch Xi.
Because of a man's perverted sexuality, he was made to suffer like this. No wonder, Eunuch Xi hated Old Master Su so much that he wanted to kill him, it was because of this reason.
The rumours continued to fester more and more, no one from the Su family was aware of them as they were busy treating the injuries of Second Master Su.
Old Master Su was working very hard, and while he tried to ignore the looks that he received in the court after the accident of his son, he also had to listen to his wife's crying all day long. He was already doing everything in his hands, but his wife thought that he was not doing enough, which led to them quarrelling every day long.
He was worried about his son as well, but his wife thought and believed that he was pinning all his hope on Su Yiqian's child since she was pregnant with the child of the Emperor.
Frustrated and tired, when Old Master Su received the invitation to drink with colleagues, he did not refuse and agreed.
