Chapter 59 Conspiracy
A twisted and sinister smile slowly crept onto Song Jiaqi's lips.
She began to plot quietly.
First, she needed to lower Su Jiaojiao's guard.
Song Jiaqi concealed all the resentment in her eyes, replacing it with a gentle and harmless smile. She stepped forward and gave Su Jiaojiao a seemingly sincere smile:
"Jiaojiao~"
Su Jiaojiao was discussing the next segment's flow with the director when she heard her voice. She turned around, glanced at her, and nodded indifferently, without any further expression.
Song Jiaqi was seething with hatred inside, but on the surface, she still smiled gently:
"I'm a little afraid of water during the water obstacle course later."
Could you please take good care of me then?
Su Jiaojiao raised an eyebrow, looking at her feigned weakness.
A slight thought crossed his mind: what kind of mischief is she up to now?
However, she did want to see
What tricks is this woman trying to pull?
So, Su Jiaojiao tugged at the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile:
"Okay, let's look after each other."
Seeing how readily she agreed, a smug glint flashed in Song Jiaqi's eyes.
Sure enough, Su Jiaojiao is just a brainless pretty face.
A few kind words are all it takes to make her fawn over him.
For the rest of the time, Song Jiaqi stayed by Su Jiaojiao's side, serving her tea and water, showing concern and attentiveness. She would praise Su Jiaojiao's makeup and her clothes, her enthusiasm even prompting the staff nearby to sigh in admiration.
"Song Jiaqi and Su Jiaojiao have such a good relationship!"
Su Jiaojiao remained indifferent, occasionally offering a few perfunctory words, but in her heart, she took in every move Song Jiaqi made.
She could tell that Song Jiaqi was waiting for an opportunity.
An opportunity for her to make a move
Soon, the opportunity came.
After the afternoon recording concluded, the production team arranged a banquet to reward all the staff and guests. The banquet was held in the hotel's rooftop ballroom, brightly lit and filled with the clinking of glasses.
Su Jiaojiao was exhausted from filming the show all day; her face showed a hint of weariness, and she had little appetite. After eating a little something, she decided to find a quiet corner to rest for a while. She hugged a cushion, curled up in the corner of the sofa like a lazy kitten, and the staff around her couldn't bear to disturb her.
Song Jiaqi had been watching her closely. Seeing her get up and leave, she immediately grabbed two glasses of red wine and quickly followed after her.
"Jiaojiao, why are you hiding here all by yourself?"
Song Jiaqi walked over to Su Jiaojiao, handed her one of the glasses of red wine, and smiled innocently.
"Come on, let's have some drinks to relax."
This is a Lafite that I specifically asked someone to bring me; it tastes excellent.
Su Jiaojiao looked at the wine glass she was offered, her gaze darkening slightly.
By acquiring affection points through the system and leveling up, all aspects of his/her stats are improving.
Her nose had become very sensitive; she could smell a faint, almost imperceptible odor mixed in with the red wine—the smell of cheap aphrodisiac.
Su Jiaojiao sneered inwardly.
Sure enough, the fox's tail was revealed.
She looked up at Song Jiaqi and saw a barely perceptible hint of urgency and nervousness in Song Jiaqi's eyes; she was waiting for her to drink the glass of wine.
Su Jiaojiao didn't immediately take the wine glass, but simply looked at her calmly:
"I don't drink much, I'm afraid of getting drunk."
Song Jiaqi's heart tightened, and she quickly said:
"Oh, it's alright, this liquor isn't very strong, just a little bit will be fine."
Look, I've already drunk it.
As she spoke, she raised the glass of red wine in her hand.
He waved it at Su Jiaojiao, then tilted his head back and took a big gulp.
He looked extremely open and honest.
Su Jiaojiao knew perfectly well that the glass Song Jiaqi drank...
It definitely didn't have any added ingredients.
She hesitated for a moment, seemingly persuaded by Song Jiaqi, and slowly reached out to take the spiked red wine.
When Song Jiaqi saw her take the wine glass, a flash of wild joy crossed her eyes, but she quickly concealed it. Her smile became even gentler:
"Try it, it's really delicious!"
Su Jiaojiao held the wine glass, her fingertips slightly cool. She lowered her eyes, watching the red liquid swirling in the glass, a mocking smile playing on her lips, unnoticed by anyone.
Trying to scheme against her?
It also depends on whether she has the ability.
Su Jiaojiao raised her hand, as if to bring the wine glass to her lips.
Song Jiaqi's heart was pounding in her chest. She stared intently at Su Jiaojiao's movements, her eyes filled with anticipation.
As long as she drinks it, as long as she drinks it...
Just as the wine glass was about to touch Su Jiaojiao's lips, she seemed to trip over something, her wrist twisted, and the glass shattered on the floor, splashing onto her white dress and leaving a large, conspicuous red stain.
"oops!"
Su Jiaojiao exclaimed in surprise, quickly put down her wine glass, and took out a tissue to wipe the hem of her skirt.
Song Jiaqi's face turned deathly pale instantly.
She watched helplessly as the spiked red wine spilled all over the floor; her heart felt as if it had fallen from the clouds and shattered into pieces.
"What happened?"
Song Jiaqi suppressed her inner turmoil and asked with feigned concern.
"Did you get hurt?"
Su Jiaojiao raised her head, a hint of annoyance on her face:
"It's nothing, I just tripped accidentally. What a waste of this drink."
As she spoke, she placed the empty wine glass on the table beside her, patted the stains on her skirt, and frowned as she said:
"This dress is dirty, I need to go back to my room to change. Excuse me."
Before Song Jiaqi could say anything more
Su Jiaojiao turned and walked out of the banquet hall.
Song Jiaqi stood there, watching Su Jiaojiao's retreating figure, trembling with anger.
Almost there!
So close!
She was unwilling to accept it!
Song Jiaqi clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, causing a sharp pain. She suddenly looked up, a fierce glint in her eyes.
No, we can't just let it go like this!
This is a rare opportunity; we must succeed tonight!
