Chapter 472 The Madam Was Frightened
Su Jiuyao gently pulled out the knife and held it tightly in her hand. Just when she thought that the man would discover her in the next second, the other person's cell phone rang.
The man answered the phone: "Brother. Okay, I'll go right away."
He hung up the phone, didn't move forward, and turned to leave the kitchen.
When the kitchen returned to silence again, with only the faint sound of bubbles coming from the medicine pot, Su Jiuyao breathed a sigh of relief and put the knife back on the knife holder, but her palms were sweaty.
Su Jiuyao was afraid that the man in the suit would come back, so she quickly turned off the fire, poured the medicine into the thermos, and went upstairs.
The two men's movements were strange and they were obviously not good people. She decided to go back to the room first, then tell Gu Hanye about it and ask him to notify the hotel staff.
Afraid that she was too slow and the victim had already been killed, Su Jiuyao couldn't help but quicken her pace.
As soon as I walked out of the elevator, I saw Gu Hanye.
As if waiting for her?
"Why did you come out?" Su Jiuyao asked in confusion, but the moment she saw him, she felt a little more at ease.
Gu Hanye took the thermos cup from her hand and held her hand: "You were gone for so long, I was worried and wanted to go look for you."
Su Jiuyao looked up and down the corridor and whispered, "Go back first. I have something to tell you."
The two of them hurried back to the room, and Su Jiuyao began to talk about what she had just heard and seen.
As she spoke, Gu Hanye opened the thermos, blew away the hot air, and drank from it in small sips.
After finishing her speech, Su Jiuyao frowned at Gu Hanye's calm expression and asked, "Why aren't you worried at all? Someone's poisoned this hotel, and someone's going to die soon!"
Gu Hanye had already obediently drunk half a cup of medicine, covered the cup and put it aside, then held Jiuyao's cold hands and rubbed them gently.
"Because the person who was poisoned was me."
"ah?"
"Don't be afraid." Gu Hanye quickly pinched the back of her hand again and comforted her, "I didn't drink it. Look, it's still there."
He raised his eyes and looked towards the small bar.
Su Jiuyao also looked over and saw that it was indeed the soup bowl she had just seen.
He blinked. What was going on? How did Gu Hanye know it was poisonous?
Before I could ask these questions, the doorbell rang.
Su Jiuyao tensed up instantly. Gu Hanye smiled and stroked her hair, like stroking a frightened kitten.
"Don't be nervous, it's Gao Yuan."
"oh……"
Gu Hanye opened the door, Gao Yuan walked in, and said to Su Jiuyao first: "I'm sorry to have frightened you, Madam. I'll take the soup away now."
Su Jiuyao nodded in a daze, watching Gao Yuan pack up the soup in the soup bowl and walk out the door.
Gu Hanye walked Gao Yuan to the door and told him, "Thank you for your hard work tonight. If you find out the result, please inform me as soon as possible."
"Yes, President."
When Gu Hanye closed the door, he saw Su Jiuyao also coming to the entrance, looking at him with a puzzled expression, and of course, worry and nervousness.
"What's going on?"
Gu Hanye held Jiuyao's hand and sat on the sofa. He continued to drink the medicine in small sips while telling Jiuyao what happened tonight.
It turned out that when leaving the banquet, Zhong Rufei took the initiative to meet Gu Hanye to remind him that someone wanted to harm him at the banquet tonight.
If he hadn't been drugged and hadn't hidden in that small living room, he would have probably been ambushed by someone in the chaos.
Since that person didn't succeed, he would definitely look for another opportunity to attack, so Zhong Rufei reminded him to be extra careful tonight.
So Gu Hanye took it to heart.
When Jiuyao went to boil the medicine, he was also worried, so he asked the hotel manager to take care of her.
When the waiter brought the soup, he said that Gao Yuan had asked the kitchen to prepare it for the president and his wife as a midnight snack, to be eaten with pan-fried buns.
But Gu Hanye had told Gao Yuan not to disturb him at night, and thinking of Zhong Rufei's reminder, he felt that there must be something wrong with the soup.
At that time, Jiuyao was still in the kitchen, and he couldn't sit still anymore, so he prepared to go downstairs to pick her up.
I was afraid that she would be scared and didn't want to tell her this, but I didn't expect that she actually witnessed the poisoning process with her own eyes.
Su Jiuyao finally felt relieved after figuring out the whole story.
"Gu Hanye, who wants to harm you this time?"
