Chapter 387: Attacking Anya
By the time the two of them finished packing the ointment and pills, it was already more than half an hour later.
After walking out of the herbs refining room, Li Yan said to the butler, “Get someone to send all those over.”
“Okay, Master.”
After the butler responded, he said to them, “Master, Miss Chu, the food is ready.”
After the two of them finished eating, Li Yan asked Chu Luo, “Are you staying here tonight or going back there?”
Chu Luo felt that she hadn’t stayed here for a long time. She liked this courtyard a lot, so she said, “Stay here. We’ll go back tomorrow morning.”
“Okay.”
It was still early, only past seven.
Li Yan sat on the sofa in the living room with his laptop and worked.
Chu Luo also took her laptop and sat beside him, quickly coding programs.
After a while, she hacked into the venue where Brother Anya’s banquet was held tonight.
The venue was the Royal Garden Hotel, which was not far from the emba.s.sy.
Wales booked the entire hotel. There were many people who came tonight, and the hall was filled with singing and dancing.
Chu Luo looked from several cameras but did not see Anya.
She then turned to the other cameras and realized that Anya was sitting in the garden pool outside the hotel with a group of youngsters, drinking and chatting.
When Chu Luo saw this, she pursed her lips and muttered in her heart, ‘You still said that you didn’t want to attend this dance. You seem very happy to me.’
Chu Luo turned to the images of the other cameras.
She felt that this garden hotel didn’t look bad, so she turned every corner. When she turned to a hidden corner, she suddenly stopped the scene.
There were two people standing there. One was a blond man and the other was a hotel waiter. Chu Luo turned to Li Yan and asked, “Yan, do you know this person?”
Li Yan tilted his head to look at her laptop and said, “He’s Wales’s personal bodyguard.”
Chu Luo retracted her gaze and muttered, “This person gave the hotel staff a packet of medicine. It’s obvious that it’s not good medicine. Could it be that Wales wants to harm someone who’s attending the ball tonight?”
Chu Luo became interested and locked onto the waiter. She switched to the video and followed him.
The waiter first went to the place to get the wine. Then, he placed a few gla.s.ses of wine on a tray and walked out.
When he reached an empty spot, he quickly took out the bag of medicine and poured it into one of the gla.s.ses.
Perhaps it was because he was too nervous, that person didn’t even realize that he had sprinkled some medicinal powder on the tray.
After he poured the medicinal powder into the wine, he actually walked towards the garden.
Chu Luo felt that something was wrong and asked Li Yan, “Yan, did you send anyone over there?”
“Qin Ming went.”
“Mm?”
“I sent him there to monitor a few people.”
Chu Luo nodded and continued to look at the waiter on the screen. He brought the wine on the tray to Anya and handed her the first gla.s.s.
Seeing this, Chu Luo thought for a while and sent Qin Ming a message to tell him about Anya’s situation. She asked him to think of a way to bring Anya out.
After sending the message, she continued to stare at the image on the computer.
Anya and the group of people were still chatting and laughing. One of them raised his gla.s.s and everyone clinked gla.s.ses. She drank from the gla.s.s.
Chu Luo zoomed in on the video and watched the change in Anya’s face. Soon, she knew what medicine Wales had given Anya.
She couldn’t help but sneer.
No wonder Anya kept emphasizing that she wasn’t close with this brother of hers.
This was the first time she had seen a biological brother drug her sister like this.
Anya reacted quickly. It looked like she had drunk too much. Her body shook and she was about to fall. The group surrounding her was shocked. Amid a wave of concern, her bodyguards came over and helped her to the guest area of the hotel.
Soon, someone came to lure Anya’s bodyguards away. Chu Luo looked at Anya, who was lying in bed unconscious, and wondered why Qin Ming hadn’t come over to take her away.
At this moment, the door to Anya’s room was pushed open.
When Chu Luo saw who it was, she snorted in displeasure.
Li Yan tilted his head to look at her.
Chu Luo pointed at the screen and said angrily, “Anya’s brother is really good. He actually wants to help Duanmu Rui bed Anya. What do they take Anya for!”
Li Yan grabbed her hand and said, “If Wales wants to form an alliance with the Duanmu family, they can only use ruthless methods.”
“Hmph! The royal family is really heartless!”
As the two of them spoke, Duanmu Rui had already closed the door.
He walked to the bed and looked at Anya, who was sleeping there. He raised his hand to his bow tie and was about to undo it.
At this moment, a figure suddenly broke through the window behind him.
When the window gla.s.s shattered into pieces, Duanmu Rui reacted and was about to take out his gun when he saw Qin Ming knock him out.
Seeing Qin Ming carry Anya away, Chu Luo turned off the video and said to Li Yan, “Anya is drugged. Qin Ming must cure her after he brings her out. Does Qin Ming have the antidote?”
“Qin Ming knows what to do.”
Chu Luo was relieved.
…
On the other side, Qin Ming carried Anya out of the hotel and walked to the car parked outside. After placing her in the back seat, he said to his two subordinates, “Continue guarding her. I’ll take her away.”
“Yes, Boss.”
After saying that, Qin Ming got into the car and drove away.
However, halfway through the journey, Anya suddenly woke up. She had been woken up by the heat and her mouth was so dry that she wished she could soak in ice water.
She sat up and looked at her surroundings. Her mind was still in a daze, and she couldn’t remember what had happened previously. She looked at the back of the head of the person who was driving.
The more she looked at it, the more she felt that the back of this head was a little familiar.
At this moment, a familiar flat voice suddenly came from the front. “Sit properly if you’re awake.”
“Eh? Stupid blockhead, why is it you?” As soon as Anya spoke, her voice became indescribably delicate. Qin Ming almost lost his grip on the steering wheel. He glanced at her red face in the rearview mirror and asked in a low voice,” Do you know why you are in the car?”
Anya then realized that they were in the car. Her eyes widened. “Why am I in the car? Aren’t I at a ball? Where do you want to take me?”
“Wales drugged you and planned to give you to Duanmu Rui.”
“What?” Anya almost jumped up.
However, when she moved, her body went limp and she fell onto her seat.
At this moment, she felt even hotter and subconsciously reached out to unb.u.t.ton her coat.
However, her coat had long been taken off, leaving only a white lace s.h.i.+rt. Once it was unb.u.t.toned, a certain part of her body was about to be revealed.
Screech…
Bang!
Anya held a hand to her forehead that was in pain from the b.u.mp and looked at him in dissatisfaction. “Why did you suddenly brake?”
Qin Ming threatened her in a low voice, “Don’t undo your clothes, or I’ll throw you down.”
Anya widened her eyes in disbelief and glared at the back of his head. She raised her voice and shouted at him, “How dare you!”
After shouting, she felt even hotter and wanted to unb.u.t.ton her clothes again.
Qin Ming decided not to look at her and turned the car into a sports car.
Anya was quickly controlled by the drug until her consciousness became blurry. Her kitten-like moan made Qin Ming, who was driving in front, tense up.
He quickly took out his earpiece and called Chu Luo.
After Chu Luo picked up the call, he asked directly, “The drug in her is acting up. How do we neutralize it?”
Chu Luo said, “It’s best if she can take the antidote. If there’s no antidote, she can use physical cooling. However, physical cooling has to be done quickly. Otherwise, that kind of drug will burn her body.”
Qin Ming was silent for two seconds before asking, “How do I cool her down physically?”
Chu Luo said, “Use ice water, but it’s also harmful to her body. If you want to let her soak in ice water, you have to pay attention to her at all times. Stop it right after her temperature drops.”
Qin Ming: “Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Qin Ming used his communicator to order the person on the other end, “Fill a wooden bathtub with iced water in the house on XX Road. I’ll be there immediately.”
After saying that, he turned the steering wheel and quickly turned the car onto another road.
The car drove for more than ten minutes before turning into a villa district.
In the end, they arrived at the iron gate of a brightly lit villa.
The door was opened. Qin Ming lowered the window and the person standing by the door said to him, “Boss, the things you wanted are ready.”
Qin Ming nodded at him and continued driving. He stopped outside the villa.
He got out of the car and carried Anya, who was feeling hot and unconscious, into the villa. The people who followed him stole a few glances at him.
When Qin Ming reached the stairs, he suddenly stopped and asked his subordinate with an expressionless face, “Is something the matter?”
“No… nothing! Boss, what other instructions do you have for me?”
“No. You can leave now.”
“Yes!”
The subordinate immediately turned and walked towards the door, walking faster and faster.
He wanted to tell everyone that his boss had brought a woman back for the night.
What a cause for celebration!
The old bachelor whom they thought would be destined to be alone for the rest of his life suddenly became enlightened!
As Qin Ming listened to the footsteps running, he deliberately turned around.
He didn’t mind and continued carrying Anya towards the bedroom.
The wooden bucket filled with ice water was placed in the bathroom in the bedroom.
After Qin Ming carried Anya in, he looked at the woman in his arms and pursed his lips, before throwing her in as if she was a hot potato.
Plop!
“Ah…”
Anya jolted and her mind finally cleared a little. She realized that she was in the water and saw Qin Ming standing beside her. Without thinking, she shouted at him in exasperation, “Stupid blockhead, what did you do to me!”
“I’m cooling you down.”
