Chapter 523: What Does She Like About Me? (1)
This words. .h.i.t Yu Qun stupid, and also instantly shattered the idea of “Zhou Manqing” liking Xie Mingxuan.
But she couldn’t possibly kill Xie Mingxuan for no reason, right?
Also, would “Zhou Manqing” dare kill someone?
Thoughts of all sorts of conflicts of interest, grudges and resentment filled Yu Qun’s head. He recalled, however, that “Zhou Manqing” hadn’t known Xie Mingxuan for long, so it was impossible for them to have any conflicts of interest.
Chi Shuyan didn’t say much, and motioned for Yu Qun to wake Xie Mingxuan with the water.
Yu Qun now trusted Celestial Master Chi very much. He followed her instructions and poured cold water on Xie Mingxuan’s face without thought.
Although Zhou Manning had used a heavy dose of the knock-out drug, a basin of cold water could still wake a person up.
When cold water was splashed on him, Xie Mingxuan woke up after a while in a daze. When he opened his eyes weakly and saw Master Chi and Yu Qun in front of him, Xie Mingxuan jumped in fright, then realized that he was soaked with water.
Chi Shuyan first flicked a Drying Talisman at Xie Mingxuan to dry off the cold water, then flicked a pill at him to swallow.
In Chi Shuyan’s eyes, this was just a small trick. In Yu Qun and Xie Mingxuan’s eyes, it was simply like watching a magical scene suddenly happen in real life, and the two of them were astonished.
Yu Qun stared at Chi Shuyan wors.h.i.+pfully.
This Master Chi was definitely an expert!
Yu Qun couldn’t help but be glad that he hadn’t offended this Master Chi badly back then, and made up his mind to cozy up to her.
Xie Mingxuan had a steadier temperament and reacted more quickly. After he took the pill, he quickly regained his strength.
Xie Mingxuan hadn’t drunk much tonight. The last thing he remembered was that woman, “Zhou Manqing,” handing him a gla.s.s of water. Although Xie Mingxuan didn’t like her and had turned her down, they still had to shoot a lot of scenes under Director Li in the future, so he couldn’t really not give “Zhou Manqing” any face.
He didn’t remember anything after that, and Xie Mingxuan was puzzled. “Master Chi, why are you here?”
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, Yu Qun couldn’t help but say, “If Master Chi and I hadn’t shown up, you would probably still be in Zhou Manqing’s bed! Xie Mingxuan, do you have feelings for that woman, Zhou Manqing?”
Yu Qun’s words scared Xie Mingxuan so much that his face changed drastically, and the veins on his forehead bulged. His face was very dark and unsightly. He never thought that this Zhou woman would be shameless enough to directly drug him.
Recalling how solicitous that woman had been these days, he felt more and more disgusted, and wanted to throw up. For the first time in his life, Xie Mingxuan loathed a woman. Chi Shuyan, who was next to him, heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Xie Mingxuan’s obvious disgust and rejection of Zhou Manning; the matter would be hard to deal with if he really had fallen for that woman.
Of course, if Xie Mingxuan really was blind and wouldn’t listen to Chi Shuyan’s advice, she wouldn’t bother to help him.
Xie Mingxuan had thought that “Zhou Manqing” had been too solicitous toward him recently, and was already suspicious. Now that she had drugged him and dragged him into bed tonight, he was even more suspicious of her motives.
No matter how he racked his brain, however, he still couldn’t figure out what that woman was after. At that moment, he couldn’t help but ask Chi Shuyan, “Master Chi, that Zhou Manqing woman said that she likes me and wants to marry me, but she’s actually too aggressive. I really don’t understand what she sees in me.”
