Mu Yanfeng had long suspected Jun Xiqing. Ever since he came back, Jun Xiqing had been avoiding him and keeping a distance.
She liked Lu Yeming so much, how could she treat him like this?
There was only one possibility. She already knew that he wasn't the real Lu Yeming.
But he had denied it before because he had completely become Lu Yeming. Even Fan Men, who had been Lu Yeming's confidant for so many years, trusted him without a doubt. How did Jun Xiqing know?
He still didn't know what he had done wrong for Jun Xiqing to see through him.
However, none of this mattered anymore. Everything was under his control now anyway.
He would drug Jun Xiqing and get her.
If Lu Yeming was still alive, he would definitely save Jun Xiqing. He would be able to capture Lu Yeming in one fell swoop.
Killing two birds with one stone.
"Your Highness, what drug is this?" Fan Men asked in a low voice.
Mu Yanfeng's thin lips curved upwards. "It's just a drug to make Qingqing sleep. I don't know who has bewitched her, but she's starting to let her imagination run wild. Knock her out tonight. I want to bring her and Chengye back to the palace.
But Your Highness, Miss Jun's blood is special. These drugs won't work on her. "
"Do you think I don't know that her blood is special? Don't worry, this is a drug specially made for her blood. You just need to make her take it. You don't have to worry about anything else. "
Fan Men nodded. "Yes, Your Highness. I will do it now."
…
The banquet.
Tonight was the last banquet. After the banquet, everyone left.
Jun Xiqing went to look for her brother, Dongfang Yu, but the helper told her that her brother wasn't around. He was probably in the banquet hall downstairs.
Ever since she came to the villa, Jun Xiqing hadn't seen her brother. She didn't know what he was busy with.
She had to find her brother as soon as possible. Fan Men wasn't reliable and she had to join forces with her brother to take down Mu Yanfeng in this villa. He had Lu Yeming's seal. If he escaped, the consequences would be dire.
Jun Xiqing had a feeling that something big was going to happen tonight.
When they arrived at the banquet hall, Jun Xiqing held Bai Xue's hand. "Ah Xue, have you seen my brother?"
Bai Xue shook her head. "No, it's strange. Brother Yu is the host of this party, but I haven't seen him yet. Where did he go?"
Jun Xiqing was a little suspicious. That's right, where did Brother go?
Two familiar figures appeared in his line of sight. Sikong Heng and Li Qiqi had arrived.
"Ah Xue, I think Doctor Sikong rejected Li Qiqi at first, but after he disappeared and came back, Doctor Sikong's attitude changed. It seems like he gave Li Qiqi a chance to get close to him."
"Doctor Sikong comes from a noble family, has outstanding medical skills, and has a clean private life. He is mature and charming. With his mother and the entire Sikong family urging him to get married, I don't think he won't get married."
"Ah Xue, if you really don't like Doctor Sikong, then I think Doctor Sikong is getting along with Li Qiqi seriously this time. If it's suitable, they might even get married."
Bai Xue's clear, limpid eyes landed on Sikong Heng's refined and handsome face. At this moment, Sikong Heng glanced sideways. Behind his gold-rimmed glasses, his clear black eyes looked over as well. Their eyes met.
After a brief moment of eye contact, Sikong Heng averted his gaze, no longer looking at her.
Bai Xue felt a little stifled and uncomfortable. She looked at Jun Xiqing. "Qingqing, I know Doctor Sikong is a good man and he's interested in me. In my heart … I quite like him too, but …"
Bai Xue wanted to say something but stopped.
"But what?" Jun Xiqing blinked curiously.
"There was once a boy who really liked me, but he died because of me …"
Jun Xiqing's pupils contracted. She didn't know that Bai Xue had such a past.
"Qingqing, I won't get married. Doctor Sikong is a good man and he thinks that anyone who doesn't have marriage as their goal is to be a hooligan. So I won't go and harm him. I'll live my life happily on my own," Bai Xue said with arched brows.
But Jun Xiqing didn't think much of it. Who didn't have a past? Ah Xue needed to walk out of the past and look forward.
Moreover, could Ah Xue really bear to leave Doctor Sikong?
Jun Xiqing felt that every time Doctor Sikong and Ah Xue made eye contact, it was especially meaningful.
Perhaps Doctor Sikong could bring Ah Xue out of the past.
"Ah Xue." At this moment, Madam Bai came over and called for Bai Xue.
"Qingqing, I'm going to my mother's place. Leave Little Chengye to me, I'll take care of him. No one will be able to hurt him."
Jun Xiqing nodded. "Alright, thank you, Ah Xue."
Bai Xue left.
At this moment, a waiter walked over with a tray of wine in his hands. "Miss Jun, would you like some red wine? This is a limited edition red wine, it's especially suitable for girls. "
The waiter recommended a glass of red wine.
Jun Xiqing's intelligent eyes landed on the waiter's face. When the waiter met her gaze, he felt a little guilty and evaded her gaze.
Jun Xiqing immediately knew that there was something wrong with this glass of red wine. But she stretched out her hand and took the glass. "I'll take this glass of red wine then. Thank you."
"Miss Jun, you're welcome."
The waiter heaved a sigh of relief after completing his task and quickly left.
Holding the glass of red wine, Jun Xiqing walked over to Sikong Heng. "Hello, Doctor Sikong."
Sikong Heng was in the middle of a discussion with a few young masters. Seeing that she had arrived, the young masters quickly left. Sikong Heng's clear black eyes landed on Jun Xiqing's face. "Hello, Miss Jun."
"Doctor Sikong, there seems to be something wrong with this glass of red wine of mine. Can you help me take a look?"
Sikong Heng stretched out his long fingers to take the glass of red wine from her hand. At this moment, he felt a colorless and odorless aura from the wine rushing into his nose.
It was a volatile drug that was difficult to obtain in the market.
Sikong Heng immediately felt his mouth go dry and his body heat up.
His clear black eyes behind his gold-rimmed spectacles became extremely sharp. "Miss Jun, did you do this on purpose?"
Jun Xiqing wanted to raise both her hands to prove her innocence. "Doctor Sikong, how could I have done anything wrong? I just guessed that there was something wrong with the wine … could it be … that it was some kind of Chinese medicine?"
Sikong Heng glanced at Jun Xiqing, put down the glass of red wine in his hand and strode out.
Just as he stepped out, he saw a curvaceous figure. It was Bai Xue.
Bai Xue was playing with Little Chengye. She was wearing a ginger chiffon dress today. This shade was very picky and could only be worn by a particularly beautiful woman. Bai Xue had perfectly controlled it. It was a wraparound style that revealed her smooth shoulders.
