The old fat lady was standing in a room along with a group of servants, Yue and some guards.

"Now tell me exactly what happened?" The madam questioned with a cold tone.

Yue was nervous and was still a bit dazed as she had just woken up. It had taken the others a few minutes to be able to wake her up. She couldn't remember how she had fallen asleep, and the last thing she remembered was kicking the servants out.

The first thing she did after waking up was checking her body and she was shocked to find out she was not touched at all. It wouldn't have been uncommon for a client to do something and they wouldn't really mind it either.

But this was the first time a client had gone away without doing anything at all. He had only eaten some of the food, which reminded her that the food was drugged.

'Wait, why did he continue to eat it even after he found out it was drugged? Seems like that was a warning, to show us not to try tricks like that on him.' Yue thought to herself.

The servants that had served Lin Mu were currently trembling in their place and didn't have the courage to speak.

"WELL DID THE CAT GET YOUR TONGUES? SPEAK!" The madam yelled.

"EEK" the servants flinched but still didn't dare to speak.

"Madam, let me tell you what happened. These bitches dared to act on their own and drugged the food that was served to Young Lord Mu Lin. Thankfully, he was merciful and did not punish us, which would have been valid considering his status." Yue said with spite while looking at the servants.

The expression of the servants only kept on falling the more they heard Yue's words, but they didn't dare to deny it either. The proof was already there as the food was still there. If they were found lying their punishment would only be more severe.

You dare!" The madam shouted and slapped the leader
