Chapter 14: She was taken by a drug of attractiveness?
Xiao Qing raised her eyebrows and shook her head in amusement.
Let her look good? This wasn't the first time she heard this, but …
"Sure." She spoke these two words very indifferently.
Su Ying was stunned. She was slightly surprised. "What did you say?"
She agreed so easily?
"Didn't you hear me? I said yes." Xiao Qing Ran held up a cup of wine and shook it between her two fingers: "You don't need to think that I would lie to you. This has no meaning to me."
Even now, she instinctively felt that a battle between women was meaningless. In fact, she didn't even care about this kind of conflict, as she only had one goal from the start.
Zhao Xin'er's eyes darkened: "Heh, you think I will believe you just because you say that? Others might not know, but I do know that you aren't as weak as you seem on the surface. You're just a sinister woman. "
"Xin'er?!" Su Ying subconsciously wanted to stop her from fighting with Xiao Qing Qing.
However, Zhao Xin'er was not afraid, she took a step forward and sneered: What, you're not? You've done a lot in private over the years, haven't you? The feeling of playing with everyone was very good? Luckily you were able to hide for so long, it's not bad at all. "
A cold glint flashed past Xiao Qing Ran's eyes as she straightened her body and looked at her without saying a word.
There was a hidden meaning in this woman's words, but her attitude didn't seem like she was trying to trick him.
Even though she had been helping Su Qian Xing, she had always been doing things in the dark. Logically speaking, no one should know about it.
Although Su Ying was a little confused, she did not interrupt them when she saw Xiao Qing Qing's silence.
"Again, you'd better weigh the pros and cons before you speak." Zhao Xin'er coldly snorted and looked at her with a superior attitude: "If I find out that you stabbed me in the back, I'll stab you in the face!"
As she spoke, she flung her sleeves and turned around to tug at Su Ying. "Let's go."
Su Ying glanced at Zhao Xin'er before nodding and leaving with her.
As Xiao Qing Ran watched their figures, she squinted her eyes dangerously. Then, she flicked her finger and something like powder silently landed on Zhao Xin'er's body. She herself was unaware.
She twirled her fingers, deep in thought.
"This King had thought that you could hide your fox tail so well. It looks like it's only so-so." The man's devilishly cold voice entered his ears.
The corner of Xiao Qing's mouth twitched as she inwardly sighed and turned her head back: "Prince, are you really that free?"
He had already hid in such a secluded place, how did this man manage to find him?
Were the two of them so fated?
"Woman, you are the first person who dares to speak to This King in such a manner." Su Qianhan laughed coldly and said in a threatening tone, "It seems that your injury has almost healed."
Xiao Qing rolled her eyes, thinking that this man was not only narrow-minded but also childish. She poured herself a cup of tea and said, "Thanks to this prince, I've fully recovered."
Su Qianhan glanced at her shoulder and then lifted his leg to sit across from her. He then grabbed the cup of tea that she had just poured.
Xiao Qing was startled and gritted her teeth: "There are so many cups over there. Why are you snatching mine away?"
Although Su Qianhan's tone was calm, it sounded exceptionally infuriating. "This King likes it."
Xiao Qinggran: "$$$# $…"
I like your grandpa, this man is doing this on purpose, right?
"Su Qianhan, is this interesting?" Xiao Qing Qing was not narcissistic, but she could roughly guess from the situation of the past two days.
Even today, this man, who had never liked to see any kind of party before, was probably here to get in his way.
Su Qian Han did not answer her and changed the topic. "What is that?"
"What? I don't understand your words." Xiao Qinglan glared at him, obviously not wanting to waste words with him. She drank her tea and got straight up: "Since Your Highness likes it here, then you can stay here by yourself. I still have things to do, so I won't accompany you."
"Heh." Su Qian Han took a sip of tea and nodded with his hand on the table. Before she could walk out of the pavilion, he suddenly said, "What you said last time, I have already thought about it."
Xiao Qing's footsteps paused as she did not turn her head around. "And then?"
Was this man trying to test him three times because he believed in him?
"You can make This King believe you. Eat this." The domineering voice of a man sounded from behind him.
Xiao Qing turned her head and saw that a black pill had appeared out of nowhere on the table. She frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"
"That's what it means." Su Qian Han stared at her, "This poison can't be cured except for this king. If you eat it, this king will believe you."
Xiao Qingqing looked back at him; she never thought that he would do something like this to her.
Indeed, since he had been fighting against him for the past four years, a person wouldn't believe that an enemy that pulled him down would suddenly say that he wanted to join their team, right?
Forget it, she didn't care at all.
"The prince said so himself, don't go back on your words." She took a step forward and directly swallowed the pill without even thinking. From start to finish, her expression did not change, "I've already eaten. Since the king has also agreed to what I thought, then today we've officially reached an agreement."
She did what she did, he did what he did, and the two of them did not cross paths.
For the first time, a look of astonishment appeared in Su Qian Han's eyes.
This woman really …
"Can I finally leave now?" After saying that, Xiao Qing Ran didn't wait for the man's reply and turned to leave.
Su Qian Han frowned, and the expression in his eyes became even darker as he looked at her back.
Other Side...
"Miss, are you sure you want to do this? "This is the Crown Prince's banquet. If the Crown Prince finds out, then …"
"Why are you saying so much? You can also question my decision. You only need to follow what I say." On a fake mountain somewhere, Xiao Xi Yu placed the bag in her hand into the hands of a servant girl: "Remember, only success is allowed."
Xiao Qing Ran, aren't you arrogant? Don't you know how to talk?
After tonight, I want to see if you can still act like before. I want to tear that fake mask of yours off your face in front of everyone!
"Yes …"
Xiao Qing Ran had only just arrived when the banquet was about to start. She avoided contact with anyone and even found a seat at the back of the table.
When she sat down and scanned her surroundings, she found that Su Qianhan was not at the banquet, so she was slightly relieved.
As expected, the man couldn't stand such an occasion.
"Miss Xiao, here is your tea." The voice of a young maid sounded in his ears.
A silver teapot appeared in front of Xiao Qing Ran.
"His Highness the Crown Prince said that you can't drink alcohol, so he specially prepared tea for you."
Upon hearing the maid's words, Xiao Qing Qing raised her head to look at the man seated on the seat of honor. Coincidentally, Su Qian Xing also turned to look at her and smiled.
"Alright, put it down." Because she had met Su Qianxing's gaze, Xiao Qing didn't think too much about it. Coincidentally, she had also gotten tired of the dessert and wanted to use it to press down on him.
However, after pouring a cup of wine, he could tell that something was wrong.
This was obviously flower tea, and it should have a sweet scent of flowers and plants, but this tea did not wait to have a sour and astringent flavor.
Xiao Qing's eyes narrowed as she realized that there was a layer of faint white powder floating on top of the tea. If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see it mixed with the color of the tea.
A furtive observation line of sight appeared on his body.
She instantly understood.
It seemed that someone wanted her to make a fool of herself in this hall.
Su Ying and the others? No, that's not right, he had just met them not long ago, even if those two women hated him because of what happened earlier, they wouldn't have the time to prepare these things.
"Miss Xiao? Why don't you drink it? " The servant girl beside her reminded her in a strange manner.
Xiao Qinglan pretended not to know: "Nothing, I just feel that this room is a little stuffy and want to go out to get some fresh air."
"Then why don't we wait until you drink this tea before accompanying you out? It won't taste good when it gets cold. "
"Sure." Xiao Qingran reached out her sleeves to grab hold of her bosom and quickly poured the tea in the cup onto the ground. In that instant, her action of raising her head concealed what had just happened.
From the maid's point of view, she could not see any clues.
"When you go and report to the crown prince later, just say that I'm not feeling well and want to go out for a walk. I won't be following you around."
"But …"
Xiao Qing suddenly waved her hand and, before she could retort, she had already stood up and walked towards the outside.
The servant girl didn't know what to do and subconsciously looked toward Xiao Xi Yu. The latter gently waved her hand as if she had already made her decision.
On the other side, Xiao Qing walked out of the banquet hall and purposefully headed towards a quiet place, giving the man a chance to follow her.
Zhao Chen rubbed his hands as he looked at the beauty standing not too far away. The vulgar glint in his eyes only grew brighter.
That woman, Xiao Xiyu, really wasn't lying to him. Although her little sister was a scarecrow, she was indeed very handsome.
That was true. A woman that could make the Crown Prince fall in love with her was definitely not an ordinary person. Today, wouldn't he benefit from it?
Xiao Qing Ran had her back facing that person. Just as he was about to pounce towards her, she suddenly turned around. The cold light in her eyes was not concealed in the slightest.
It was the gaze of a cold-blooded wolf.
Zhao Chen was scared stiff by her gaze. When he suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was just a woman who had been drugged, he immediately felt relieved.
"Who told you to come?" Xiao Qing said coldly.
"Instruction?" Beauty, didn't anyone tell you to speak in a softer tone when you talk to me? " Zhao Chen did not hide his gaze as he looked at her, "Only by doing this will I show you mercy."
Xiao Qing Qing frowned, "You are Zhao Chen?"
She had never seen this man before, so she thought he was some random scapegoat.
"That's right, that's me." His eyes flashed with lust as he took a step away from her. He reached out his hand to touch her face: "Beauty, I like you. I know you're scared right now, but you don't have to be afraid soon because I'll make you want to die."
