Chapter 44 Incident



She looked at a champagne saucer on the table. If she put her glass in it, then took it out and poured it out, wouldn't everything be fine? She could just say she accidentally put it on the table and the waiter took it away.

Since she couldn't keep the wine herself, the maid didn't dare tell the young master about the young lady's plans for tonight, nor did she have the courage to refuse her. This made her very anxious and distressed.

Since she had come up with this idea, she decided to do it. The maid put her hands behind her back, removed the silk from her hands, placed the drugged champagne in the closest spot to her, and then carried the tray of champagne to the back. Fortunately, there weren't many people around, and no one reached out to take the champagne.

And so, the maid successfully reached the back. Just as she was about to walk to the corner of the pool, she exclaimed, "Oh, finally one's here! I sent someone to urge them to hurry up, saying that they also needed champagne and red wine outside. They've finally arrived. Thanks!"

After the man finished speaking, he took the plate from behind. The maid wanted to stop him, but was startled by the question, "Why do you look unfamiliar? Are you new here?" She quickly replied, "Yes, I am new here. Please go and get busy."

Sheng Zi carried the tray to the young master's place. He Kaiyuan turned around when he heard the noise. He and Xu Zhaohao naturally took two cups down from the tray. "Hey, my sister is over there!" Xu Zhaohao waved to Xu Zhaoyue.

Sheng Zi, being very perceptive, took the remaining three glasses and went over. Xu Zhaoyue and Xiao Nan each took one, while Yue Lanxing didn't move. But Sheng Zi held it out to him, "Young Master, would you like some red wine?"

"Hahahaha!" Xiao Nan couldn't help but laugh out loud, then immediately covered her mouth, but Xu Zhaoyue's laughter didn't stop. Sheng Zi looked at them with a puzzled expression, wondering what she had said wrong.

"Just take it, young master!" Xu Zhaoyue teased. At this moment, her smile reached her eyes, and anyone who saw it could tell that she was very happy. With such a smiling face in front of you, and calling you "young master," it's hard not to be bewitched. Yue Lanxing was successfully bewitched.

Yue Lanxing picked up the last cup and explained, "I'm not the young master, I'm Miss Xu's housekeeper." Only then did Sheng Zi, who was closer, notice the yellow silk in his hand.

"Alright, alright, you can go now!" Xu Zhaoyue dismissed him. "We'll go meet up with Xiao Hao and then toast Uncle He. You should drink now." Xu Zhaoyue looked at Yue Lanxing's increasingly uncomfortable face but ultimately didn't say another word about "young master."

Yue Lanxing raised his glass and took a sip in front of her, his Adam's apple bobbing. Xu Zhaoyue looked up at him, and could just see a cluster of stars behind him.

Yue Lanxing noticed the young lady's gaze and was about to look over when Xu Zhaoyue walked towards the pavilion. "A telescope isn't an astronomical telescope, how far can it see?"

The steps to the pavilion were quite high, so Yue Lanxing quickly went over and lifted his arm to let the young lady help him up. He then took a few big steps and went up, while Xiao Nan strolled behind him.

"It's hard to see clearly tonight, sis. What were you laughing about just now? Why were you so happy?" Xu Zhaohao waved to Xu Shun outside the pavilion and handed him the binoculars.

"I'm in a good mood!" Xu Zhaoyue walked into the pavilion. The summer evening breeze was hot, but it felt comfortable against her skin.

"Cough cough cough..." Yue Lanxing felt a discomfort in his stomach, followed by a sharp pain. He quickly turned away from the young lady, and coughed up blood. "Hey, why are you coughing up blood!" Xiao Nan was watching from behind.

"Ah? Yue Lanxing, what's wrong?" Xu Zhaoyue's cup fell to the ground with a "crack". She grabbed Yue Lanxing's hand that was covering her mouth, which was stained with blood.

"Holy crap! Poisoned!" Xu Zhaohao was about to throw down the glass in his hand when He Kaiyuan stopped him. "Don't throw it, take it to the hospital for testing." After saying that, he put away the two glasses of champagne, while everyone else surrounded Yue Lanxing.

"Hospital! Hurry to the hospital! Li Qi, get the car. Who can carry him?" Xu Zhaoyue immediately issued a series of orders. He Kaiyuan ran downstairs and grabbed a servant. "Follow that person in front. Drive the car in through the back door as fast as you can!"

Xu Zhaoyue pulled on Yue Lanxing's arm, trying to make him sit down, but Yue Lanxing was still resisting her touch. "Miss, you don't need to worry about me. This is an old problem of mine."

“Spitting blood is an old problem!” Xu Zhaoyue was almost angry with him. “Listen to me, listen to me!” Yue Lanxing grabbed Xu Zhaoyue’s hand. “Okay, go ahead.”

“I’m allergic to a substance. This is an allergic reaction. Huanglian from Xu’s Hospital is my doctor. His phone number is…” Yue Lanxing was clear-headed and, apart from spitting blood, didn’t seem to be in any danger. She was calmer than the others.

Yue Lanxing felt that the young lady's palms were sweaty, so he let go of her hand, wanting them to see that what he said was true. However, the hand that had just shaken with the young lady was completely unchanged. This realization made him tremble.

He was excited, so excited that he couldn't even feel the pain, but in Xu Zhaoyue's eyes, he was about to give up. "Quick, Xiao Hao, carry him to the car and drive straight to the hospital. Kaiyuan, take me to make a phone call. Hurry up!"

"Okay, okay!" Everyone suddenly sprang into action. Xu Zhaohao and Xu Shun grabbed Yue Lanxing and ran off, while He Kaiyuan took Xu Zhaoyue to the phone. "Sis, you make the call first, I'll drive you there later. I'll go talk to my sister."

"Go ahead, go ahead." Xu Zhaoyue dialed the phone without even looking up, and the call was answered in an instant. "Hello, who is it?" It was a man's voice.
