"What's the matter?" Seeing her eldest daughter's attitude, Zhou Yunxi could only sit down and listen carefully.
2"Mother, I..." Gu Yanwei hesitated. She seemed to be suppressing her embarrassment and forced herself to complete her sentence. "I just came from the banquet after taking a walk and saw Ruochu..."
2...
2In the garden, the banquet was being held in full swing. Huo Zijun, who had been flirting all night, was now standing quietly beside Huo Jingjing.
2Even though he was standing quietly, his devilish handsome face still captured the hearts of many young ladies present.
"Second Brother, are you really planning to personally make a move?" Huo Jingjing glanced at Gu Ruochu, who was only a few paces away from them. Her eyes were filled with disdain.
2"I think that we should set up that Li Qiao Fan so Gu Ruochu can lose her position in the Huo family and also have the wrath of the Li family."
2Huo Zijun noticed Li Qiao Fan frequent glances towards Gu Ruochu. He lifted his chin slightly and said, "You're right. However, Li Qiao Fan must not draw out Gu Ruochu. I'll still have to make a move."
2Huo Jingjing smiled faintly when she heard this. "Second Brother, don't tell me you've fallen in love with Gu Ruochu as well? I'm just asking you to put on an act. At most, you'll be able to get close to her. You'd better not end up seducing her into bed.".
2As long as he cooperated and pretended to be seduced by Gu Ruochu, she would be labeled as a slut in front of everyone.
2"What nonsense are you spouting? Let's work together. What internal conflict are you talking about?" Huo Zijun raised his head and downed the glass of red wine in one gulp. He then placed the glass back on the table and tidied his clothes before walking towards Gu Ruochu.
2"Sister-in-law."
2Gu Ruochu's eyelids twitched when she saw him. She had a bad feeling about his sudden interest in her.
2She immediately suspected that he had some ill intentions towards her.
2He was a two-faced villain with a hidden blade in his smile.
"Zijun, what's the matter?"
2"Let's toast to sister-in-law." Huo Zirui took the liberty of clinking glasses with her and raised his head to drink.
2Gu Ruochu gently raised her head and took a sip of the wine. When she saw his lips gently curl up, she felt evil and arrogant.
2An indescribable, strange feeling spread in her heart. Gu Ruochu could taste the slightly astringent taste of the red wine.
She was not unfamiliar with this taste. In her past life as the heir to an arms dealer, she had tasted something similar.
2She had seen many instances of smuggled firearms, drugs, and other illegal medicines at the border.
2In a split second, Gu Ruochu understood Huo Zijun's intentions.
2He had actually dared to drug her in front of so many people!
2She did not swallow the red wine. Instead, she silently gargled it in her mouth and spat it out when he was not looking.
2Gu Ruochu's lowered eyes flashed with a bone-chilling coldness.
The Huo family had so many people who were so calculative and scheming.
2She had almost been tricked.
2After a while, Huo Zijun saw that Gu Ruochu's expression looked ill and thought that his plan had worked.
2"Sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell?" An evil smile appeared on Huo Zijun's face.
2"There are a lot of people here. If everyone sees you falling in love, do you think that you'll still be able to hold on to your position as Mrs. Huo?"
2"What exactly do you want?" Gu Ruochu lowered her voice but it only made him smile even more wickedly. "Do you see that tree in the East Garden? Let's meet there, I have something to tell you."
2Huo Zirui finished speaking and left immediately.
Gu Ruochu's lips curled into a strange and cold arc as she watched him leave.
She followed him and the strange feeling in her heart grew even more intense. What was Huo Zijun up to?
