The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits

This wall holds more secrets, as the place where Su Li's palm was pressed reveals a crack, unexpectedly leading to a hidden door.

Retracting her hand, she glanced inside, and a severe wave of nausea surged within Su Li's heart like a stormy sea.

The room, less than twenty square meters, was full of props...

Another wall was covered with medicine pills and medicine powder, along with some brewed medicinal wine, their purpose self-evident.

The items hanging on yet another wall were even more repugnant, just looking at them felt like they would sully one's eyes.

The people on this ship are even more depraved and disgusting than she had imagined.

Seeing their respectable appearances, one would never imagine that they were rotten to the core.

"Knock knock knock"

Opening the door, Qiu Yu stood outside, tears in her eyes, trembling all over.

"Ah Lee, I'm terrified, can you keep me company?"

The incident today had been too shocking; an ordinary person encountering such a thing would undoubtedly be frightened out of their wits.

Plus, Sun Yacheng's indiscriminate idiotic act of tracking down the culprit had Qiu Yu scared enough to seek comfort from Su Li—this was completely normal.

Except for her holding a bottle of high-alcohol liquor in each hand, which was a bit...

Noticing Su Li's gaze drifting down, Qiu Yu pitifully raised the bottle of foreign liquor in her hand and said: "I'm really scared. As soon as I close my eyes, I think of He Yangning's awful condition. I reckon you do too."

"So why don't we drink some liquor to boost our courage; getting drunk will be better..."

Su Li gestured Qiu Yu to come inside and then casually asked, "Where's Mi Tianyu? Isn't she with you?"

Qiu Yu pouted, shaking her head: "You know how she is. We've never gotten along, so who knows where she's run off to; she's definitely not in the room."

"Li Yiyang should still be downstairs, right?" Qiu Yu said, patting her head after circling the room: "Young Master Sun told me to stay in the room with Mi Tianyu and not come out. Don't know what they're up to—thinking about it is even scarier."

Su Li noticed that when Qiu Yu mentioned Sun Yacheng, she shivered all over, clearly very afraid of him.

"Drink, drink..."

A bottle was shoved into Su Li's hand by Qiu Yu, as she took a sip first, continuously urging Su Li, "Hurry up and drink. This liquor tastes pretty nice, not harsh at all."

Su Li looked at the bottle in her hand, then stared at Qiu Yu for a moment, until she felt extremely nervous, instinctively averting her gaze from Su Li's.

"Ah Lee, why are you staring at me? There's nothing on my face." Qiu Yu's hands, by her side, nervously clenched her hem before quickly releasing it, forcing a smile.

Su Li followed with a smile too: "Just seemed like you're really tense."

"I-I'm just scared...."

"Mm, it's okay, relax." Su Li said casually, then under Qiu Yu's pressing gaze, brought the bottle mouth to her lips.

Su Li keenly noticed that Qiu Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After chatting aimlessly for a bit, Qiu Yu, who had been gradually relaxing, began to tense up again.

Her gaze intermittently shifted between the liquor in the bottle and Su Li's face.

Unlike Qiu Yu's flushed cheeks, after half a bottle of liquor, Su Li's complexion didn't redden at all; it remained as pure as jade.

Qiu Yu leaned closer, noticing Su Li's skin was so delicate, not a single pore in sight.

She seemed a bit tipsy, and the obvious jealousy in her eyes wasn't even concealed.

"Su Li, don't you have a low tolerance for alcohol? How come half a bottle had no effect on you?"

Qiu Yu's expression held a hint of anger from feeling deceived.

Su Li: "Oh, that, I'm not sure either. The liquor tastes like juice, no alcohol taste at all...."

Suspicious, Qiu Yu snatched the bottle from Su Li's hand, sniffing under her nose before taking a sip.

No mistake, didn't grab the wrong one. The scent and taste were identical to her own.

Her mind began to feel muddled, always thinking she missed something.

Ah, had she added something to Su Li's drink earlier, only to drink it herself by mistake?

Thinking of this, Qiu Yu panicked for a moment but quickly calmed down.

It's fine; Su Li had drunk more than half the bottle with no issues. Did she really grab juice by mistake?

Qiu Yu held the bottle up to her eyes, but before she could inspect it properly, she collapsed to the ground with a "clang," unconscious.

Su Li let out a cold snort, then tiptoed to pull open her room door.

"Why did it take so long?" The questioning stopped abruptly at the sight of the person in front.

Su Li: "Young Master Sun, what are you doing here?"

"Just right, Qiu Yu's drunk; I don't like sharing a room with anyone. Could you help take her back to her room?"

Sun Yacheng's initially impatient expression turned dark and menacing, like a fierce beast about to pounce...

"Ah Lee..." Li Yiyang's voice abruptly broke the tense atmosphere, his steps hurried, forehead sweating, looking anxious.

He noticed Sun Yacheng's glare showing a suppressed rage. "Yacheng, Shao Liang wants you downstairs... can't catch the culprit, but they've caught a few traitorous little mice."

Sun Yacheng glanced mockingly at Li Yiyang: "It's just you, you...."

Saying nothing else, he disregarded Li Yiyang's look and left with his hands behind him.

Su Li: "What kind of games were you just playing?"

Li Yiyang seemed visibly annoyed, with a hint of impatience in his tone, "Nothing."

Su Li didn't press further and stopped Li Yiyang before he could leave.

Su Li gestured towards the room, "Could you help take Qiu Yu to her room? She's drunk..."

Li Yiyang glanced at the person clutching the bottle on the ground and said irritably, "Why bother with her? She knows you're not a good drinker but still came to drink with you."

Li Yiyang at that moment seemed like the ideal boyfriend concerned for his girlfriend.

"Are you asking me to spend the night with her or struggle to take her downstairs myself?"

-------------

The next day, Su Li woke up feeling refreshed.

Last night, she presumed no one else had slept soundly except her.

After going downstairs, she found the restaurant on the first floor was already packed.

Su Li noticed, compared to yesterday, several faces were missing, both men and women.

And the remaining men and women sat silently in their seats, clearly looking excessively frightened.

As for Lou Shaoliang, Mu Yonghua, and others, they were elegantly enjoying their breakfast as if nothing had happened.
