As soon as Zhang Liang finished speaking, he suddenly became dazed and lost consciousness. His hand, which had been holding a cup, remained frozen in that position.

Xia Xin mentally commanded Zhang Liang to speak the truth.

Zhang Liang blinked, as if receiving a command. He put the cup down and looked at Zhao Nan, saying, “Zhao Nan, there's something I've never told you. When I courted you back in university, it was because you were easier to chase, and your best friend was Xia Xin, that's all.”

Zhao Nan was taken aback by the revelation and was temporarily at a loss for words.

Zhang Liang continued, “After being with you, I used your name to harass Xia Xin. However, she's better at playing hard to get than you. Also, that night when you asked me to give something to Xia Xin, I didn't give it to her. I confessed my feelings to her and told her how much I liked her. But she played hard to get. On the surface, she acted annoyed and rejected me, even sending someone to have a dog attack me. But isn't she the one who made a proactive move today? Don't think she's a good person. And don't think too highly of yourself; you're just a toy I play with.”

Zhang Liang even revealed many things that even Xia Xin didn't know. She didn't expect the Enchanted Puppet to have this effect – making someone reveal all their truths. She had originally intended to test whether Zhang Liang would confess about hiding things from Zhao Nan. Xia Xin hadn't anticipated such a good outcome.

While Xia Xin was lost in thought, she suddenly heard a loud slap.

With tears in her eyes, Zhao Nan slapped Zhang Liang's face in anger and said, “Stop it, that's enough!”

Zhao Nan's slap was forceful, knocking Zhang Liang's head to the side. He took a while to straighten his head.

Xia Xin felt something was off, but she attributed it to Zhang Liang being in an unconscious state, causing a delayed reaction, so she didn't think much of it.

Suddenly, Zhang Liang frowned and reached to touch his slapped cheek, looking at Zhao Nan. He asked, “Are you fucking crazy?”

“Uh-oh!” Xia Xin became alert and thought, 'Zhao Nan's slap had been too powerful, causing Zhang Liang to wake up prematurely!'

Xia Xin realized things were turning bad. She quickly moved to protect Zhao Nan.

As expected, due to his anger, Zhang Liang raised his hand to hit Zhao Nan. Fortunately, Xia Xin managed to pull her away in time.

Zhang Liang wasn't stupid; he realized something was wrong. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have spilled these truths, considering he hadn't finished playing with Zhao Nan yet. However, he had seemed to lose consciousness a moment ago, unable to control his body. Without a doubt, he believed that it was because Xia Xin had drugged his drink.

Looking at Xia Xin with fury, he cursed, “You damn woman, what did you make me drink?”

Xia Xin smirked and said, “Just regular tea to clean up your foul mouth.”

Zhang Liang's fury turned into a twisted smile. Using his tongue to press against his slapped face, he looked at Xia Xin and Zhao Nan in a deranged manner. He said, “Fine, since you're asking for trouble, don't blame me for taking action. ”

Normally, Zhang Liang acted carefree and had a good temper. He never lost his temper like today, which frightened Zhao Nan. She took two steps back and asked, “What are you trying to do?”

“What am I trying to do? My foolish girlfriend, of course, I'm going to teach you both a lesson!” Zhang Liang said as he approached step by step. The sense of danger made both girls very afraid.

Xia Xin stood in front of Zhao Nan. Since she bought The Twenty-Four Martial Arts Techniques skill book, she had been practicing its moves every day. Today was the day to put her skills to the test.

However, while Xia Xin had become proficient in these moves, she hadn't used them in actual combat. She was a bit nervous despite her familiarity with the techniques, especially with a tall guy like Zhang Liang standing before her. She was pretending to be brave; she couldn't deny she was feeling fear.

But to protect Zhao Nan, Xia Xin had to appear calm. Summoning her courage, Xia Xin said, “Nan, stand back a bit. I'm worried that if we start fighting, we might accidentally hurt you.”

Zhang Liang completely dismissed Xia Xin's attempts at combat. He laughed and said, “It's been a few days, and you've grown bold.. Remember that day you begged me for mercy? If that dog hadn't suddenly appeared and ruined my plans, you would've been mine long ago!”
