บท 34: The Plan

Actually in the past life Luciano had slyly put a medicine in Feng Xinying's tea, which resulted in making her vomit uncontrollably. That time Xie Yuansheng couldn't do anything as Luciano had taken her to the hospital immediately and ensured that he stay with her over there for two days, which in turn angered him a lot. So this time, Xie Yuansheng was already on alert.

He looked at Luciano and asked, "How about some wine instead of tea? I have a fantastic wine cellar and we have some rare wines in there."

Luciano was flustered. He looked at Feng Xinying and said, "No, I will have tea…"

"But the wine is really good Luciano. You must try," insisted Xie Yuansheng.

Feng Xinying wanted Luciano to have tea. She couldn't contradict Xie Yuansheng and was angry that if he had to show off his wine cellar, then why did he even got the tea prepared by the servants.

Before anyone of them could say anything, Xie Yuansheng smiled in a sly manner and said, "Let me fetch it for you." He went downstairs to the wine cellar and came back with a wine bottle. Then he went to the bar and poured three glasses of wine for them and personally offered it to Luciano and Feng Xinying.

They cheered and sipped it. Luciano was looking dejected that they weren't having tea. He had his pill ready to slip it into Feng Xinying's cup but he wasn't given a chance and especially now under the watchful eye of Xie Yuansheng he wouldn't dare to do that.

"Your eyes are fine now?" asked Xie Yuansheng to Luciano.

Luciano wanted Xie Yuansheng to go away from there so that he could enjoy his time alone with Feng Xinying but the man wasn't budging.

"Yes they are fine. After all Feng Xinying blew air in them," he replied with a sweet smile. "Do you know Xie Yuansheng that in America she really got bothered about me all the time when I became sick?"

Xie Yuansheng narrowed his eyes at Luciano as he sipped his wine. Looking at the desired effect, Luciano got a pleasurable feeling and confidently turned towards Feng Xinying who was smiling at him and he gulped more wine.

"Feng Xinying, when will you come back to modeling? I have a pile of clients waiting to sign you up!" he said. As he said that, he felt slight rumbling in his stomach and seconds later, he had vomited on the carpet in front of him.

Xie Yuansheng rushed to his side and before Feng Xinying could even react, he had already called the ambulance, which came within five minutes. Feng Xinying was utterly surprised as to how come the ambulance came so early. But in her confusion all she did was to watch Luciano go to the hospital as the hospital staff picked him on a stretcher and took him out quickly.

When Luciano had gone Xie Yuansheng dusted his shirt as if removing some dirt from there. His plan worked with Luciano. He had slipped the same powdered pill in his wine glass.

He came and stood behind Feng Xinying. He said softly in her ears, "Don't worry, he is in good hands." He was happy that she would stay with him in the mansion the whole day.

Feng Xinying turned around and bumped into him. She stumbled a bit but Xie Yuansheng caught her at the buttocks with both hands and deliberately pressed her against him. He stared into her eyes. Feng Xinying blushed as she saw him stare her.

He leaned forward so that their faces were only an inch away from each other. "Feng Xinying, don't you remember anything between us…" he asked looking innocently in her eyes.

Feng Xinying was startled. What had happened between them? What was he talking about? She looked at him questioningly. Inching closer Xie Yuansheng brushed his lips on her cheek and said, "Do you remember how close we were?"

Feng Xinying was surprised beyond words. "No I don't," she said, forgetting that he had cupped her buttocks. He smiled and squeezed them, "It's okay. We will talk about it one day."

All of a sudden she became aware of their position, and became red all over again. She removed his hands from her buttocks hurriedly and stepped out of his embrace. "I think I should go and check on Luciano," she said.

His face darkened. All his plans would go for a waste if she went to see Luciano. He had not only saved her but also looked forward to spend his Sunday with her. "But Luciano would be in emergency now. You cannot meet him," he said to stop her.

Feng Xinying looked at him and paused before saying, "Okay… then I'll just go back to my room."
