Thinking of this, Huangfu Xin'er stared at Jian Yixue's back with a vicious look for a long time. Seeing that she did not turn around, she was very angry and even tore off the pretense of composure on her face.
Suddenly thinking of her brother's situation, she reluctantly gave up her plan, glared at Jian Yixue, and left.
Jian Yixue naturally felt the unfriendly gaze directed at her, and she knew without a doubt who it was. However, she couldn't be bothered to pay attention; filling her stomach was the most important thing right now.
Jian Yixue walked around the dining table and ate a round of food, but finally left the table reluctantly because she couldn't eat anymore.
Having no interest in this kind of banquet, Jian Yixue walked to a corner chair in the hall and sat down. Looking at the world of the wealthy before her, she felt only boredom. Gradually, she became sleepy, so she put one hand on the table for support, propped her face up with the other, lowered her head, closed her eyes, and rested, waiting for Ye Mohan to come find her.
Suddenly, Jian Yixue, who was pretending to be asleep, seemed to smell a strange fragrance. Having dealt with medicinal herbs for many years, she quickly realized that something was wrong. She couldn't believe that someone would be so bold as to use such a despicable method in a public place.
She suddenly opened her eyes, which were filled with warm anger, and looked at the man in the khaki suit in front of her. In an instant, her eyes were filled with a deep-seated hatred.
It was him!
The person who haunted her nightmares every night was now standing alive in front of her, and she wanted nothing more than to kill him on the spot.
She never expected that even though she missed the banquet in her past life, the gears of fate would still bring her together with him again.
This must be fate.
She never imagined that Zhao Heng, who was at least a charming young man in her past life, would commit such despicable acts, even drugging people in public.
Without changing her expression, Jian Yixue took out a pill from her spatial storage that could be used to absorb the potent effects of the drug and swallowed it.
However, it would take some time for the medicine to take effect, so Jian Yixue remained seated, her eyes filled with hatred as she looked at Zhao Heng.
Zhao Heng was somewhat surprised to see the venomous look in the woman's eyes, which seemed to hold an overwhelming hatred for him.
He didn't remember them ever meeting, otherwise he wouldn't have secretly put a potent drug in the perfume.
When Jian Yixue and Ye Mohan entered, he saw the dazzling Jian Yixue. Although he had promised someone to take the opportunity to get close to Jian Yixue tonight, he was still amazed by her appearance when he saw her in person.
When he came out of the bathroom, he saw Jian Yixue sleeping with her eyes closed. So he sprayed perfume mixed with a potent drug that made people lose control on her and walked over to her.
He just didn't expect that Jian Yixue wasn't asleep; she woke up as soon as he got close to her.
Seeing that this tactic was not working, Zhao Heng changed his strategy.
With a confident smile, Zhao Heng walked calmly to Jian Yixue's side. "This beautiful lady, it's a pleasure to meet you. I wonder if you mind if I sit down and have a chat with you?"
Zhao Heng was extremely confident in his eloquence. He believed that if Jian Yixue agreed to his request, he was absolutely certain that he could win her heart.
Just when Zhao Heng thought victory was assured, Jian Yixue's icy voice rang out.
"mind."
"I'm talking coldly," Jian Yixue said, her eyes filled with naked hatred.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Zhao Heng's face, and her expression turned somewhat unpleasant. But knowing that she would soon lose her senses, she held back.
"Then I will stand here. May I ask which family in the capital you are, Miss? I have never seen you before in the capital."
Zhao Heng pretended not to know who she was and asked her.
Jian Yixue frowned after hearing this.
Did he not recognize me in my past life?
Impossible. Before she died in her previous life, she heard Jian Jiaojiao say that they had been together for a long time, before she met her.
Jane Yixue rejected the idea.
Or is it that because of his rebirth, the predetermined trajectory was altered, causing events to deviate from those of his previous life?
For a moment, Jian Yixue couldn't understand, couldn't find the answer, and was too lazy to dwell on it. "Who am I? What does it have to do with you?"
Zhao Heng showed no displeasure at this. He knew who she was, but he couldn't say it outright, otherwise it would expose his impure intentions. He smiled and said, "I am Zhao Heng from the Zhao family in the capital. I admire you greatly, Miss. Would you do me the honor of taking a walk with me in the garden?"
Zhao Heng thought that once they got to a secluded place, he would see how much she pretended to be reserved, and she would still obediently submit to him.
Jian Yixue looked coldly at Zhao Heng in front of her and felt more and more that she was blind. How could she have thought that such a philandering man was worthy of entrusting her life to?
In her previous life, when she met Zhao Heng, she had just married Ye Mohan not long before. During that time, Ye Mohan went to the United States, and the two of them did not have any in-depth communication.
When she met Zhao Heng at the banquet, he began to pursue her aggressively. She fell for him amidst his sweet words and attentive care.
By the time Ye Mohan returned from abroad, she had already fallen for Zhao Heng and disliked Ye Mohan's presence even more.
It's often said that women in love are brainless, and Jian Yixue thinks that's absolutely true.
Later, when Zhao Heng cleverly tricked her into obtaining the Ye family's secrets, she naively chose to believe him. After the matter was discovered, he disappeared without a trace, only to reappear once things had calmed down.
The cycle repeats itself.
Only in death did she realize that she was merely a pawn in Zhao Heng's game. It proves the saying that what is easily obtained is never truly valued.
Jian Yixue had a suspicion: perhaps this scene was not Zhao Heng's true face.
"No interest."
After Jian Yixue finished speaking, she prepared to get up and leave. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would lose her temper and take action.
Jian Yixue stood up, somewhat dazed, perhaps because the antidote had not yet fully taken effect.
Seeing Jian Yixue's unsteady stance, Zhao Heng was secretly delighted. Although he had approached Jian Yixue with a specific purpose tonight, the beauty before him seemed to be somewhat tempting.
Zhao Heng reached out to help Jian Yixue, but Jian Yixue ignored him. She looked around and, not seeing Ye Mohan, assumed he was probably busy.
Feeling that the hall was a bit stuffy, I thought I'd go outside for a walk; the fresh air would also help the medicine work better.
Jane Yixue then walked straight out the door.
Seeing this, Zhao Heng felt a bit disgusted by Jian Yixue's arrogant attitude. Just as he was about to get angry, he suddenly remembered something, composed himself, and patiently followed her.
As Zhao Heng walked to the entrance of the hall, just as he was about to catch up with Jian Yixue, he was suddenly knocked on the back, his vision went black, and he fell to the ground.
Jian Yixue noticed the commotion behind her and was about to turn around to make a move when a familiar voice came and quickly pulled her into an embrace.
"It's me, Yi Xue."
Jian Yixue was taken aback. He shouldn't be in the United States, so how did he end up here?
