Chapter 181 Sugar Dipped in Ashes



Spanish Fly.

Hearing these words, Qin Guican frowned and spoke in an unhappy tone.

"What's this?"

"Boss, you don't even know this!"

Shao Zuo's eyes suddenly widened, his suspicious look fell on Qin Guican, and suddenly he clicked his tongue twice.

"You said that with your connections, don't you usually have any female artists who want to get ahead of you?"

Under Qin Guican's murderous gaze, Shao Zuoheng laughed, folded his arms and leaned against the white wall beside him, his eyes cast at Dai Shutao who was lying quietly on the hospital bed and receiving an IV drip.

"Spanish Fly, a drug used for flirting, has similar effects to aphrodisiacs, but is even more potent. It's not sold publicly in China, so someone must have found a way to get it. Mr. Qin, this is no small matter. Someone wants to take advantage of this little lamb you've got your eye on."

Shao Zuo happened to be free on night shift, so he thought for a moment and started to exaggerate the situation.

"I don't know who's so bold. They don't even know that Dai Shutao is the woman you're interested in. Mr. Qin, do you think he dared to drug me this time? Will he rape me next time?"

Shao Zuo's words became more and more outrageous, and he looked at Qin Guican with sparkling eyes, almost blatantly encouraging Qin Guican to find that man and fight with him.

However, Qin Guican did not speak, and cast an indifferent gaze towards Dai Shutao.

Xiao Xu was holding the phone and calling Hu Ke, while Zhou Yili was standing obediently in front of the bed, his eyes full of worry.

Yes, a woman who is so sincere and open-hearted even to an unknown little person certainly deserves others' 100% care.

Qin Guican also heard from Hu Ke that Dai Shutao distributed the endorsements under her to Chu Junyao and Zhou Yili, and also prepared a high-end luxury brand title for Zhou Yili as a debut gift after he formed the group.

How could a woman who is not shy about sharing her personal resources be sensitive to the malice of others?

If Dai Shutao knew what Qin Guican was thinking, she would surely laugh until she hiccupped. Unfortunately, she was now lying on the bed with a pale face. The unknown fire in her body had dissipated, and what was left was the cold feeling of the liquid flowing through the pillow into her body.

Xiao Xu called Hu Ke, and after learning that he was about to arrive, he felt a boiling anger in his heart.

She didn't expect that someone would actually use such a despicable trick. The place was full of surveillance cameras. Wasn't that person afraid of being exposed?

Xiao Xu remembered the wine glass he had been holding carefully in his hand all the way, and suddenly turned around to find that the wine glass was still on the windowsill.

After taking two decisive steps and picking up the wine glass, Xiao Xu turned around and saw Qin Guican standing behind him, which made him subconsciously take a step back.

"Taotao had the accident because she drank this."

Qin Guican's tone was very calm, as if he was narrating a trivial matter that had nothing to do with him.

But the more he did this, the more uneasy Xiao Xu felt.

"Yes, this wine was originally given to Zhou Yi by Lu Sheng, but Sister Taozi seemed to have noticed something and snatched the wine away. Before she could deal with it, she accidentally drank it herself."

Zhou Yili, who was standing aside and heard their entire conversation, had lost all color on his face and stared at them blankly, as if he had not yet realized that the person who was supposed to be lying here was him, and he was Lu Sheng's hunting target.

"I see."

Qin Guican glanced at his wine glass and said, "Call the police. This is such a big thing that ordinary people like us can't handle it."

Shao Zuo, who was standing at the door, glanced at Qin Guican's face, stood up straight unconsciously, said that he had other wards to check, and ran away.

Are you kidding? He and Qin Guican have known each other for so long, and he knows Qin Guican's temper very well.

The calmer Qin Guican appeared, the more his mood had collapsed. No one knew what would become of that unlucky guy.

No, I can’t come to this ward anymore.

Shao Zuo shuddered, shook his head, and quickened his pace to leave.

Since they decided to call the police, Xiao Xu and others would naturally tell the official personnel all the relevant information they knew, including the glass of problematic wine, which was also handed over to the police at the same time.

Dai Shutao, who was still asleep, had no idea about all this.

After a coma, Dai Shutao's consciousness gradually became clearer and he emerged from the chaotic dream.

When she tentatively opened her eyes, she felt a wave of fatigue all over her body, as if the feeling of weakness spread from the top of her head to her toes.

Dai Shutao wanted to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she found that her voice was hoarse and her throat seemed to be on fire, so she could only close her mouth reluctantly.

With the help of the dim lamp beside the bed, Dai Shutao could barely see the surrounding environment.

Back to the hospital again...

Dai Shutao laughed at herself, fearing that she had been hospitalized more frequently than she had been in her previous life, from childhood to adulthood.

The air was filled with the soothing scent of jasmine, so light and elegant that Dai Shutao was in a trance for a moment before she looked into the distance.

There was a two-seater sofa next to the door. Qin Guican was sitting on the sofa with his hands crossed and his eyes closed, dozing off.

After a whole day's work, Qin Guican hurried to the venue to give a speech, and this happened again.

Even though Qin Guican was an iron man, his body couldn't take it anymore. He simply took a short rest while Dai Shutao was still asleep, completely unaware that the woman was lying on the bed, looking at him quietly.

Speaking of which, Dai Shutao has been here for almost half a year.

It would be impossible to say that time was not passing quickly. If she calculated carefully, it seemed that she had known Qin Guican for such a long time.

Ever since Qin Guican directly expressed his feelings for Dai Shutao, he has been maintaining a tentative attitude.

It won't make people feel too ambiguous, nor will it make people feel alienated.

He always maintains the right attitude and distance, and always appears when Dai Shutao needs him.

Dai Shutao looked at the ceiling above her head. Her face, which had been free of makeup, was pale, and her almond-shaped eyes, without any eye makeup, were filled with confusion.

If one were to put himself in the shoes of a businessman, Qin Guican was not wrong in his choice of her. Even when negotiating the contract, Qin Guican gave Dai Shutao a lot of green lights, and the treatment he gave her was unprecedented and unique.

Dai Shutao was no fool, and naturally knew that while the other party was offering good benefits, they also hoped to make greater profits from her.

If it were Lai Youtong, would she be as resistant as she is now?

Dai Shutao blinked her eyes and pursed her lips into a slit. It seemed that this was not the case...

Because she knew very well that the other party was simply using her, and this kind of relationship with personal emotions behind the use also made Dai Shutao feel a little concerned.

If a candy falls on the ground, no matter how quickly you pick it up, there will always be some dust on it.

Qin Guican was like dust to her, and was also the reason why she always avoided him.

But now...

Dai Shutao couldn't help but look into the distance again, and happened to meet a pair of sparkling eyes.
