Chapter 64 Acting

"Well, you two actually dare to look at me like that? Humph, in that case, then there's no need for us to continue being friends, right?" Shi Yi glared at Li Lingyu and Jiang Xianchuan angrily, her anger was evident in her words. Her flushed face seemed to be able to spit fire, and when the other people in the camp heard the quarrel coming from here, they all ran over curiously to watch this farce.

"So what? You only cause me a lot of trouble every time, making me exhausted and tired of dealing with it." Jiang Xianchuan folded his arms across his chest expressionlessly, staring at Shi Yi coldly, with a hint of disdain and annoyance in his eyes.

"Okay, now that things have come to this, from now on, we'll be done with each other and no longer be friends!" Shi Yi shouted with gritted teeth, the anger in his heart burning more and more vigorously.

At this moment, Li Lingyu suddenly pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist, pointed the gleaming blade straight at Shi Yi, and cursed viciously: "How dare you say that? It was obviously you who poisoned the soup last time. I heard someone saw it with their own eyes. They said they saw you sneakily putting the poison into the soup pot!"

"Hmph, you are slandering me! You are simply shameless!" Shi Yi glared at Li Lingyu and retorted loudly.

"You shameless guy, how dare you accuse others of being shameless? Why don't you take a good look in the mirror and see who you really are!" Jiang Xianchuan took the opportunity to add insult to injury and started to mock Shi Yi.

When Shi Yi heard this, he was so angry that he was shaking all over. Just as he was about to open his mouth to fight back, he saw Gu Huaishan rushing over. He asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What on earth is going on with you? You were getting along well before, why did you suddenly quarrel like this?"

In response to Gu Huaishan's question, Jiang Xianchuan simply rolled his eyes and muttered unhappily: "I'm too lazy to explain to you, it's all this guy's fault anyway!" After that, he turned his head away and ignored anyone.

"Alright, alright, calm down for a moment and stop arguing. We are all from the same camp, we'll see each other sooner or later. If there are any misunderstandings, just talk it out face to face so that you can get along better in the future." Gu Huaishan looked helplessly at the three people who were arguing in front of him, especially the guy who was glaring at Jiang Xianchuan.

Seeing that person was Shi Yi, she said angrily: "I don't want to get along with the two of them, they just bully others by taking advantage of their power!" On the other side, Jiang Xianchuan, one of the two people being accused, retorted: "Who cares, sister Xiangchu."

For a moment, the atmosphere on the scene was extremely tense, as if a spark could cause a raging fire.

Gu Huaishan stood between the three men, feeling torn and sweating on his forehead. He tried to ease the situation, but the tense aura of the three men made his efforts seem ineffective.

Gu Huaishan turned to look at the onlookers around him, hoping to find out from them the cause of the quarrel, but to his disappointment, no one could explain it.

Gu Huaishan could not help but feel very confused, thinking to himself: My plan has not even started yet, how come there is such a big commotion? Is it because of Zheng Jun? Thinking of this, he could not help but become more alert.

"What's the matter with you? Don't keep it in your heart. Tell me everything and I will help you solve it." Gu Huaishan patiently persuaded them in a gentle tone.

However, the three men seemed to be determined and ignored his words and remained silent.

After a moment's stalemate, Gu Huaishan finally gave up the idea of ​​playing peacemaker. He shook his head helplessly and sighed: "Forget it, since none of you want to talk, just solve it yourselves." After that, he turned around and left this tense place, leaving behind the three people who were still refusing to give in to each other.

In the following days, the cold war between the three people continued. A whole week passed and they didn't say a word to each other.

The atmosphere in the entire camp became extremely depressing. When others saw them like this, they all chose to avoid them, for fear of being accidentally involved in this inexplicable dispute.

The night enveloped the entire camp, and the moonlight shone faintly through the thin clouds. In a remote and quiet corner, Gu Huaishan quietly met Zheng Jun.

"Are you sure that the three of them really haven't said a word to each other during this period of time?" Gu Huaishan asked anxiously in a low voice, with a glimmer of cunning in his eyes.

Zheng Jun nodded vigorously and answered affirmatively: "It's absolutely true! As soon as they met, they immediately rolled their eyes at each other, and their eyes seemed to want to eat each other alive. Moreover, there were several times when they almost came to blows. I saw it with my own eyes and I secretly cursed them behind their backs."

Hearing this, Gu Huaishan's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. After thinking for a moment, he said: "In this case, then our original plan should be adjusted and implemented in a timely manner. Go and find Shi Yi immediately."

After a while, Shi Yi came hurriedly. Gu Huaishan took out a delicate little bottle from his arms, handed it to Shi Yi, and said softly: "This is a bottle of special potion."

Shi Yi took the bottle in confusion, examined it carefully, then looked up at Gu Huaishan and asked in confusion: "What is this?"

Gu Huaishan smiled slightly, his tone calm but chilling: "Don't worry, this bottle of medicine is colorless and tasteless, and others can't detect it at all. Once you drink it, you will die of suffocation in an hour."

After hearing this, Shi Yi's face turned pale instantly, his eyes widened in horror, and he asked in a trembling voice: "You...what do you mean?"

As Gu Huaishan approached, he lowered his voice and said slowly: "I know you really hate Jiang Xianchuan and Li Lingyu now, and they have become a serious threat to my position. So, I want to cooperate with you. As long as you let them drink this bottle of medicine, we can work together to eliminate our common enemy and achieve a win-win situation."

Shi Yi was silent for a long time, then suddenly sneered, stared at Gu Huaishan sharply, and asked, "Why do you think I would agree to help you do such an evil thing?"

Gu Huaishan's expression suddenly turned gloomy, and he said coldly: "You have no other choice."

After listening to Gu Huaishan's words, Shi Yi hesitated again and again, but finally gritted his teeth, nodded, and said, "Okay, I promise you."

After saying that, Shi Yi picked up the bottle of deadly potion and turned away.

Looking at her receding figure, Gu Huaishan smiled triumphantly, with an indescribable sense of relief and joy in his heart. However, he did not realize that he was walking step by step into a trap carefully set by someone...
