"Host, Qiu Wanzhen has indeed caught up," the system excitedly reminded.
Yu Chaoxi had anticipated this. She had ruined her plans, and Qiu Wanzhen was definitely watching her closely. Once she was alone, Qiu Wanzhen was bound to take her anger out on her.
If a cat doesn't show its power, people will really think it's a pushover.
Yu Chaoxi strolled around and ended up in the Qin family's garden. It was evening, and the Qin family's garden was lit up, so it wasn't too dark. There were hardly any people in the garden.
When Qiu Wanzhen saw her run to the garden, she followed her out with a glass of champagne, not noticing the waiter following far behind.
"You little beast, come here right now!"
"Meow." Yu Chaoxi glanced at her, then strode away on her short legs to a more secluded corner.
Qiu Wanzhen chased after him, but the waiter who was following at a distance saw that things were not going well and did not dare to step forward to stop Qiu Wanzhen. He could not afford to offend anyone attending the banquet tonight, so he could only turn around and go back to find Huo Linyuan.
After cornering Yu Chaoxi, Qiu Wanzhen's anger intensified.
That little brat scratched her last time, and it's still not healed! Tonight, she ruined her plans again, and Qiu Wanzhen is determined to teach her a lesson today.
She bent down, keeping a distance from Yu Chaoxi in case she suddenly attacked her, and pinched her face with one hand. Her face was no longer the dignified and elegant young lady she had been pretending to be; it was full of ferocity.
"You little beast, you've ruined my plans time and time again. I haven't even settled the score for the scratch you gave me last time, and now you've spilled my wine again tonight. Today I'm going to let you drink your fill!"
If a cat drinks too much alcohol, it will get alcohol poisoning, and then this cat will die in this corner, and nobody will know.
Seeing that Yu Chaoxi did not resist, Qiu Wanzhen took the wine and intended to pour it into her mouth.
"Host, Huo Linyuan is almost here."
Yu Chaoxi then began to dodge left and right to buy time.
Qiu Wanzhen was getting impatient and was about to use violence to force Yu Chaoxi to open her mouth when a furious shout came from behind her.
"stop!"
Qiu Wanzhen was startled, and her grip on Yu Chaoxi's hand loosened instinctively.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yu Chaoxi suddenly leaped forward, overturning the champagne in Qiu Wanzhen's hand and jumping over her. At the same time, a colorless and odorless powder fell from mid-air, not very clear in the night.
"Ah! You little beast!"
The wine spilled all over Qiu Wanzhen, soaking a large part of her blue dress. Yu Chaoxi's jump had caused her to lose her balance and land on her bottom on the muddy grass, looking extremely disheveled.
Yu Chaoxi accidentally got some of the fur on her body, and she subconsciously licked it to keep herself clean.
The system was shocked. "Host! What are you doing! This is alcohol!"
Yu Chaoxi froze. "Just a little bit, it should be fine, right?"
"……Good luck."
Yu Chaoxi ran quickly to Huo Linyuan's side and complained to him, "Meow!"
Huo Linyuan quickly picked her up, not minding that her paws were covered in mud, and gently stroked her fur. He had just seen Yu Chaoxi being bullied in a corner from afar, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
Cats are much more fragile than humans; a kitten could easily die if it's not careful.
Looking at Qiu Wanzhen again, Huo Linyuan's face showed a layer of anger, "What were you going to give my cat to drink just now?"
"I..." Qiu Wanzhen didn't expect Huo Linyuan to arrive so quickly. She fell to the ground and no one helped her up. This embarrassing scene was seen by her arranged marriage partner, and Qiu Wanzhen wished she could disappear on the spot immediately.
"I just saw your cat run out to play by herself and thought she was lost, so I came over to check on her. I didn't mean to feed her anything!" Qiu Wanzhen explained.
Qiu Wanzhen had thought it through clearly. Since there was only her and a cat at the scene, as long as she explained it well, Huo Linyuan would definitely not pursue the matter.
Unexpectedly, the next second, Yu Chaoxi meowed angrily at her, her fur standing on end.
Huo Linyuan quickly stroked her fur, then said coldly to Qiu Wanzhen, "You're lying. My cat doesn't agree with what you just said."
Qiu Wanzhen's eyes nearly popped out of her head. President Huo didn't believe her, but believed a cat? That cat was just an animal! How could it possibly communicate normally with a person? Could you trust a cat's words?
At this moment, Qin Heng arrived with a group of people. Someone told him that a dispute had broken out in the garden, and as the host today, Qin Heng would definitely have to step in and handle it, no matter how big or small the matter was.
Also accompanying them were Madam Huo and some guests from the neighborhood who had heard the commotion.
Qin Heng looked at Qiu Wanzhen sitting on the lawn and had someone go over to help her up. "Miss Qiu, what happened?"
"She tried to force-feed my cat alcohol, hoping to kill it," Huo Linyuan said coldly.
His eyes were icy cold; if looks could kill, Qiu Wanzhen would have been stabbed several times by now.
Qin Heng had also heard that Huo Linyuan had recently adopted a cat and doted on it, taking it everywhere he went. For Qiu Wanzhen to touch his cat was tantamount to touching his heart and soul, wasn't it?
Qin Heng naturally had to stand on his brother's side, but he didn't want to make a big fuss about Qiu Wanzhen and affect the front hall, so he said, "Miss Qiu, apologize to the kitten, and let's just let this matter go."
As for whether Huo Linyuan can get past her after the apology, and how to deal with her after the banquet, that's none of his business.
Qiu Wanzhen was filled with shame and indignation at being watched by so many people, and she had to apologize to a little beast in public. She felt that her self-esteem had been trampled underfoot.
She looked to Old Madam Huo for help.
Old Madam Huo silently looked away. This shameful Chunzhu is no longer worthy of being her daughter-in-law. It was just a kitten that scratched her. Was it really worth it?
