Chapter 210: The Hongmen Banquet
"Of course not. Come and sit down."
As soon as she said this, Tong Xu's grip on her sleeve tightened, "Huh!?"
Bai Zhaoyan asked the two to sit down, calmly took Tong Xu's hand, and whispered, "Be good."
From an angle that Bai Qi Yahui couldn't see, he was almost crying, and he used his lips to make a gesture, "I don't want to die."
He doesn't even want to eat now.
Bai Zhaoyan thought to himself, the dishes were all made by Mo Wang Langye, and Yahui had no chance to touch them, so how could they be poisonous?
Lang Ye came out of the kitchen with more dishes and chopsticks. Yahui stood up and reached out to take them. "Thank you, I can do it myself."
Tong Xu widened his eyes in horror. In his eyes, every action of Yahui now seemed like drugging.
"Zhao Yan?" Mo Wang saw Tong Xu was nervous and frightened. "Hurry up and sit down to eat, or the food will get cold."
The animals sat down, and Mo Wang and Yao Ze took care of the four cubs while they ate.
Yahui placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of Bai Qi, and the two sat side by side in the upper seat.
The atmosphere at the table was quiet, with only the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding.
Cen Ran watched Tong Xu busy digging into the rice in his bowl, not picking up any vegetables or even eating his favorite dried fish.
Zhaoyan picked up some food for him before eating, and she felt something was wrong.
His eyes kept wandering between Zhao Yan, Tong Xu and Ye Zheng.
The three of them were a little strange today, especially Tong Xu.
Halfway through the meal, Yahui finally spoke: "Aqi, Zhaoyan, I've been back for a while now, along with my... twelve beastly husbands."
As soon as she spoke, Bai Zhaoyan, Ye Zheng and Tong Xu all put down their chopsticks, wanting to hear what she had to say.
Tong Xu's eyes were fixed on Yahui's actions, fearing that she would secretly put drugs in the food at this time.
She continued, "I think our whole family should have dinner together tomorrow."
"Let's invite Ayuan and his family to come along too. We'll be at Aqi's house and I'll cook, okay?"
Even a simple-minded person like Tong Xu could figure out that if Yahui cooked, she would put drugs in the food.
It's impossible to guard against.
You must not go to the Hongmen Banquet.
Just as he was thinking this, he heard Bai Zhaoyan's smiling voice: "Okay."
Tong Xu pinched the outside of Bai Zhaoyan's thigh with his hand under the table, turned his face away stiffly, and looked terrified.
What are you doing?
Bai Zhaoyan felt pain, but remained expressionless as she held his hand. "We'll all go tomorrow. It's a good opportunity to help Am. It's very hard for you to cook for so many people by yourself."
Seeing that she trusted her so much, Yahui's eyes welled up with tears, and she quickly lowered her head to hide them, "Okay, everyone come together."
She wanted to treat people to a meal, so Bai Qi naturally wouldn't spoil her fun. He quickly said, "Then wait until later. I'll go pick some fresh vegetables from the fields. The meat is in the cellar, so you can pick it up anytime."
Going to Bai Qi's house for dinner tomorrow means he doesn't have to cook, so Lang Ye is quite happy.
After having lunch with trepidation, Yahui went to inform Bai Yuan and the Twelve Beast Husbands.
Tong Xu covered his throat and coughed a few times, his face twisted. "Bai Zhaoyan, I feel unwell all over. My stomach hurts and my head feels dizzy. Am I going to die? Please help me take a look."
Bai Zhaoyan glanced at him and said, "It's a psychological effect. Don't be too nervous."
If Tong Xu goes undercover, he won't survive the second episode.
He slumped limply on the table, his eyes dull. "I don't want to go to dinner tomorrow. I'm not hungry."
"If you don't want to go, then don't go."
"You are not allowed to go either. You will die."
Mo Wang stopped wiping the table and looked up at Bai Zhaoyan, "Zhaoyan, what happened? Why did Tong Xu say that?"
He really didn't like hearing that.
The other four beastmen also gathered around, wanting to know what they had discovered.
Without waiting for Bai Zhaoyan to speak, Tong Xu straightened up anxiously and said, "You all don't know, last night Bai Zhaoyan and I went out to look for Ye Zheng."
"I heard the lady and her beastly husband discussing poisoning the food and killing us all."
"Especially Bai Zhaoyan."
"In this way, Madam can be the leader."
His expression was indescribable. "Madam, you are so mean. I don't like you."
As soon as these words came out, the beasts' expressions became serious. Yao Ze asked in a deep voice, "Did you hear correctly?"
"How could I have heard it wrong?" Tong Xu pointed at Ye Zheng. "He heard it too. If you don't believe me, ask him."
Ye Zheng nodded under the gaze of the five beasts.
Lang Ye hissed and walked up to Bai Zhaoyan, "Then we can't go, Zhaozhao, especially you, you look pregnant."
At this time, Bai Zhaoyan should be protected more carefully and not be put in danger.
This was the first time Ye Zheng knew that Zhao Yan was pregnant. He squinted his eyes and looked at her abdomen, carefully recalling whether he had rubbed her belly too hard last night.
There shouldn't be any, he is very careful.
But why didn’t Zhaoyan tell me?
An indescribable bitterness welled up in Ye Zheng's heart.
"If we don't go, how will this play go on?"
Bai Zhaoyan used points to exchange for a bottle of detoxification pills in the mall. The detoxification pills were labeled as being able to cure all poisons. "Tong Xu is scared, so you won't go tomorrow. Stay home and cook for the kids."
"Take this pill and take it before dinner tomorrow. You'll be fine."
At that time, I also had my own healing skills, which could definitely guarantee their safety.
The six beastly men took the detoxification pills from her and put them close to their bodies.
Bai Zhaoyan was thinking about whether to prepare something for Bai Yuan and Bai Qi. Yahui shouldn't hurt them.
But the Twelve Beastmen can.
Since they were able to prepare poison, it proves that there must be more than one.
Bai Zhaoyan thought that he still had to prepare some for Bai Yuan, Bai Qi and the others, and find a chance to feed them.
And if nothing unexpected happens, Yun Qian will also go.
If Yahui were to accidentally poison Yun Qian, her mother-son relationship with Bai Yuan would be over.
"Why is Madam like this..." Lin Che was shocked and confused.
Although Zhaoyan is not her biological daughter, she has never done anything unfair to her.
Why can she be so cruel?
Yao Ze let out a long sigh, "The world is so big, there are all kinds of strange things."
Power is still very fascinating.
When you have power, blood ties don't matter.
When Tong Xu was told not to go, he hesitated again, "Am I really not going?"
Although it was fun to play with the cubs, he still wanted to stay with Bai Zhaoyan in times of danger.
"That's right." Bai Zhaoyan looked at him with eyes that looked like she was coaxing a child: "It's too dangerous for the kids to go with you, so you need to stay home and protect them."
"If anyone forces their way in, especially the Twelve Beast Husbands, you can use your special abilities like you did to Ye Zheng."
Tong Xu straightened his back instantly, feeling that he had become the most important person among all the people and the one who could help Bai Zhaoyan the most.
"good."
Ye Zheng: “???”
