Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Wenxu was Jiang Weiyang’s elder brother and the heir of the Jiang Family.
Murong Qiao greeted him indifferently.
“I had something on previously, so I arrived at the banquet a little late. I’m sorry to have let you suffer Weiyang’s pampered personality.” Jiang Wenxu explained his intentions.
He was apologetic and acted very polite the moment they met, so Murong Qiao did not dislike him too much.
But she merely didn’t dislike him.
Jiang Wenxu then said, “If Young Miss Murong is willing to give me face, why don’t we have a meal another day as an apology? 1 know a very good Western restaurant. Their wine is also top-notch.”
He was polite and not overly domineering. He was the type of person who could easily gain a girl’s favor.
However, Murong Qiao noticed that when he said that the wine was very good, his tone was familiar and sincere.
“Young Master Jiang has also studied wine?” She pretended to ask casually.
Jiang Wenxu smiled humbly. “I can’t say that I’ve studied it. I just know a little.”
As the two of them spoke, Feng Xinyao stood in the distance anxiously.
She looked at Jiang Wenxu’s broad back, blocking Murong Qiao’s entire body. She frowned and wanted to approach, but she didn’t dare to, afraid that Murong Qiao would see through her.
When Murong Qiao heard Jiang Wenxu’s words, she raised the wine glass in her hand.
“Then, Young Master Jiang, take a look. How is this glass of wine? I don’t know much about this.” Murong Qiao pretended to be ignorant.
Jiang Wenxu looked at the wine glass handed to him and met Murong Qiao’s curious gaze. He thought that she was also interested in him, so he smiled and took the glass of wine.
Jiang Wenxu took a sip. “The aftertaste is sweet and strong. The taste is surprisingly good. This wine…”
Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly felt something. He looked down at the glass of wine and was a little surprised.
“It’s a little similar to the ones in my family’s collection,” Jiang Wenxu said.
Not to mention being similar, this was undoubtedly a part of the Jiang family’s private collection.
Murong Qiao watched him drink it. Then, before the two of them could say much, she saw a faint blush appear on Jiang Wenxu’s face.
There was not much alcohol in the wine to begin with. It was Feng Xinyao who left some space to add a strong ingredient. Even though Jiang Wenxu only took a sip, his body quickly felt abnormal.
“Ugh…” Jiang Wenxu’s figure swayed.
The strange feeling was like a gradually burning flame that rose crazily in his body, secretly shooting out sparks that burned his rationality bit by bit.
There was indeed something wrong with that glass of wine.
Murong Qiao was not surprised to see Jiang Wenxu’s face red.
“Young Master Jiang?” She frowned.
Murong Qiao’s voice was crisp and pleasant. When it landed in Jiang Wenxu’s ears, the effects of the drug gradually overwhelmed him. Many charming scenes instantly appeared in his mind.
Jiang Wenxu frowned. He intuitively felt that there was something wrong with his body’s reaction, but he did not suspect Murong Qiao.
He suppressed his discomfort. “I’m sorry. I’m not feeling well. I’ll leave first.”
Jiang Wenxu didn’t even care about his demeanor. After saying this, he hurriedly left.
This was a banquet. He could not embarrass himself at this point, let alone in front of Murong Qiao.
As for the wine glass, it was accidentally stuffed back into Murong Qiao’s hand. A portion of the wine was visibly missing. It was obvious that it had been drunk.
Jiang Wenxu’s consciousness gradually faded, but fortunately, his mind still remembered where the resting area of the banquet was.
His footsteps were irregular. When he walked near the resting area. His face was completely red, and his body was shouting some kind of desire.
His rationality was devoured bit by bit. Jiang Wenxu gritted his teeth and walked to the door of the room, wanting to find a room to stay in first.
However, he could not push it open. He even tried several doors in a row, but this was the same.
Jiang Wenxu did not have the time to think about why. He only pushed the doors mechanically. Finally, when he tried the last room, the door opened.
He rushed in and even forgot to pull out the key card before slamming the door shut.
The banquet continued.
After Jiang Wenxu left, Feng Xinyao naturally saw Murong Qiao again.
Her gaze landed on the wine glass almost clearly. When she saw that it had been drunk, she was so happy that she could not suppress a smile.
She did not think too much about it and only thought that Murong Qiao had drunk it when she was talking to someone just now.
Murong Qiao had yet to figure out what Feng Xinyao wanted to do, so a few minutes later, she pretended to be uncomfortable and left the banquet.
Seeing this, Feng Xinyao immediately followed.
As expected, as soon as she turned the corner, she saw a very uncomfortable Murong Qiao. She was leaning against the wall with her head lowered, and her expression couldn’t be seen clearly.
Feng Xinyao was delighted. “You don’t look very well.”
She walked over and held Murong Qiao’s arm tentatively. When she leaned closer and saw that her face was red, she couldn’t help but ask.
Murong Qiao frowned and held her forehead with her other hand. She leaned against Feng Xinyao.
“Ugh…” But Murong Qiao could only make a muffled sound.
How could she know what Feng Xinyao wanted to do? She could only pretend to blush by running a few steps. Murong Qiao simply didn’t say anything and followed Feng Xinyao’s instructions.
Feng Xinyao sized her up. “Murong Qiao?”
There were only a few muffled groans in response.
She looked like she was delirious, making Feng Xinyao think that Murong Qiao had already taken the drug and it was starting to take effect.
“Why don’t I help you to rest? It’s not good to stand here.” Feng Xinyao continued.
Hence, according to Jiang Weiyang’s plan, she planned to bring Murong Qiao, who had been “drugged”, to the corresponding room.
The corridor was empty. Jiang Weiyang had prepared it beforehand to prevent any accidents.
Feng Xinyao led her towards the resting area without worry. They didn’t encounter any obstacles along the way.
However… She glanced at Murong Qiao in confusion. She didn’t know if she had an illusion from time to time, but she felt that dragging Murong Qiao away was much easier than she had imagined.
After all, she had done something bad. Feng Xinyao was vigilant and cautious. Along the way, she looked like a special agent.
When they arrived at the resting area, just as Feng Xinyao was about to bring Murong Qiao to her room, her phone suddenly rang.
“Da ~”
The ringtone of the phone was especially strong in the quiet and empty corridor, almost instantly making Feng Xinyao nervous.
She hurriedly took the cell phone from Murong Qiao’s body. When she saw that the caller’s name was Huo Yichen, her hands trembled in fear and she rejected the call.
The plan couldn’t be messed up.
This was Feng Xinyao’s first reaction.
However, when she realized the consequences of her rejecting the call, she was so frightened that her mind went blank. She was afraid that Huo Yichen would come looking for her, so she simply threw the cell phone into the trash can beside her to prevent it from being located.
She had to speed up.
Feng Xinyao thought that it would be over if she was caught.
Hence, she pulled Murong Qiao to the agreed room. Now, she couldn’t care less about being vigilant.
However, when she reached the door and gently pushed it open, intending to push Murong Qiao in and leave, something unexpected happened.
Murong Qiao, who was supposed to be delirious, suddenly looked up. When Feng Xinyao was unprepared and trying to open the door, she pushed her into the room from behind.
“You—” Feng Xinyao was shocked.
However, before she could react, she was locked in the room.
Murong Qiao stood outside. Her movements were clean and neat, and she didn’t look like she had been drugged. As soon as the door closed, the card was taken away, taking away the possibility of Feng Xinyao coming out.
“Murong Qiao!! Let me out!!!” Feng Xinyao’s frightened and angry voice came from the other side of the door.
If she still didn’t know that Murong Qiao had beat her at her own game, she would really be a fool!
The dark environment in the room made Feng Xinyao’s teeth chatter in fear. She wanted to knock on the door, but she was afraid of attracting attention and being discovered..
