Chapter 1250: Chapter 1250: Complacency
Jiang Xueâer watched Jian Dan leave, a subtle curve forming at the corner of her mouth.
âChu Liyuan, should we also have a drink?â After the crowd dispersed, Jiang Xueâer presented a glass of wine to Chu Liyuan.
âThank you for everything this time!â Chu Liyuan took the wine and drank it in one gulp.
Seeing Chu Liyuan swallow the drink, Jiang Xueâerâs lips curled into a smile againâŠ
After Chu Liyuan drank that cup, Jiang Xueâerâs eyes had not left him. When she saw him heading to the restroom, she immediately followed.
Jiang Xueâer, waiting outside the restroom, noticed something was off with Chu Liyuan as soon as he emerged. With a smile, she quickly went up to support him; Chu Liyuan slumped onto her, and Jiang Xueâer knew that her opportunity had finally arrived.
Supporting Chu Liyuan, she escorted him to a room she had already prepared. Once inside, Jiang Xueâer started feeling unwell herself. Could it be that her own drink was alsoâŠ
Jiang Xueâer didnât dwell on it much, thinking there wasnât much loss. This way, things might even be more enjoyable, and then the indescribable occurred.
âJian, Chu Li is missing!â Zi Yan reminded.
âHow is that possible? Wasnât he just hereâŠâ Jian Dan turned around only to find that Uncle Chu was really gone. âWasnât Uncle Chu just there? How could he disappear in a blink of an eye?â
âStop fussing and start looking! I have a bad feeling about this!â Zi Yan said anxiously.
The three split up to search.
Walking along, Jian Dan spotted a handkerchief on the ground. She recognized it â it belonged to Uncle Chu from his chest pocket.
Jian Dan picked up the handkerchief and, seeing a slightly ajar door beside her, hesitated but decided to enterâŠ
The scene that met her eyes nearly toppled her on her feet.
On the disheveled bed lay a man and a woman, and Jian Dan recognized both â Jiang Xueâer and⊠her Uncle Chu!
By this time, Zi Yan and Xi Rui had also arrived and witnessed the scene.
âYou wretch, get up now.â Xi Rui was the first to explode. She walked over, grabbed a glass of water from the table, and splashed it over them. Not only was Jiang Xueâer drenched awake, but Chu Liyuan beside her also came to.
He looked up to see a desolate Jian Dan and realized he was lying shirtless next to Jiang Xueâer on the same bed.
Jian Dan had yet to say a word. As Chu Liyuan prepared to speak, Jian Dan turned and left.
âJian Jian~â Chu Liyuan tried to get up and follow.
âThis is not the time for you to show up!â Zi Yan stopped him and went after Jian DanâŠ
After Zi Yan followed Jian Dan out, only Xi Rui, Chu Liyuan, and Jiang Xueâer were left in the room.
Tears streaming down her face, Jiang Xueâer sat to the side wiping her eyes.
âUncle Chu, how could you be such a person?â
âI⊠I didnât know!â Chu Liyuan turned his gaze to Jiang Xueâer.
Through her tears, Jiang Xueâer said, âI donât know what happened myself. After drinking just one glass, I felt extremely uncomfortable, and I donât remember anything after that.â
Jiang Xueâerâs act could have really fooled anyone unaware of her ruse.
Chu Liyuan looked at Jiang Xueâer with cold eyes, got dressed, and left without looking back.
âLet me tell you, Jiang Xueâer, donât think no one knows what youâve done. Donât imagine that just because youâve been with Uncle Chu, you can replace Jian Dan in his heart. You are greatly mistaken.â After dropping those words, Xi Rui also stormed out.
Once everyone had left, Jiang Xueâer casually wiped her tears away, her mouth curving into a smug smile.
Zi Yan quickly caught up with Jian Dan.
âZi Yan, donât say anything, I donât want to hear it!â Jian Dan turned her head aside as she spoke.
âJian, youâre really something, I almost believed it!â Zi Yan slowly spoke.
âWhat are you talking about, Zi Yan? I donât understand,â said Jian Dan.
âStill going to keep up the act?â
Only then did Jian Dan turn her head back, her face devoid of sadness, even laughing, âYouâve seen through it, havenât you?â
