Chapter 98: Drugged?

He Zixuan felt a little guilty when Meng Qingyi looked at him. He coughed dryly and hid behind Mu Zian.

"Yiyi, I accidentally got Mr. Chu's coat dirty. I washed it and returned it to you." Huo Rao came to Meng Qingyi with a calm expression.

Meng Qingyi glanced at Chu Jingyan and saw that he was just smiling, then said, "It's okay, just give it to me and I'll wash it."

After Meng Qingyi finished speaking, she wanted to reach out to take the coat, but Huo Rao dodged her.

Huo Rao smiled lightly, and secretly tightened her grip on the coat, "I made it dirty, so I should take responsibility."

"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Huo." Chu Jingyan and Meng Qingyi looked at each other, then turned to look at Huo Rao, and then shifted their gaze to Gu Nanjue.

At this moment, Gu Nanjue was stunned as if he was struck by lightning, "Is this coat yours?"

Chu Jingyan pursed his lips and understood, "It was on Yiyi at first. I think Miss Huo was splashed, so Yiyi gave her coat to Miss Huo."

"Whose do you think it is?"

Gu Nanjue gritted his teeth and glanced at Chu Jingyan. Why didn’t he notice that Chu Jingyan was only wearing a shirt and no jacket?

Besides, if he had observed Meng Qingyi carefully, he would have known that the coat was on her at first.

A flash of regret flashed through Gu Nanjue's heart, and he looked up at Huo Rao. Why didn't she explain just now?
If she had, he wouldn't have insulted her in the bathroom?
Gu Nanjue leaned his glasses against his head. Before he could say anything, Meng Qingyi grabbed Huo Rao's hand and said, "Raorao, you haven't cleaned this up yet."

"Why are your hands so cold?" Meng Qingyi put her hands on her face and was frozen.

"Are you cold?" Meng Qingyi asked, then took off the shawl on her shoulders and wanted to put it on Huo Rao.

Before Huo Rao could refuse, and before Meng Qingyi put on her coat, Gu Nanjue came over and unbuttoned her coat, "Wear mine."

Huo Rao instinctively wanted to struggle, but Gu Nanjue had already draped his clothes over her and was holding her tightly.

"Ms. Meng, the temperature is a bit low today, I hope you don't catch a cold." Gu Nanjue said.

After hearing this, Huo Rao gave up struggling. It would not be worth it if Meng Qingyi got sick.

Meng Qingyi looked at Gu Nanjue in confusion. Chu Jingyan came to her side and put the shawl back on her, "Be careful not to catch a cold."

Gu Nanjue held Huo Rao's shoulders tightly and whispered, "Why didn't you say anything?"

Huo Rao looked cold, pretending not to hear, and said nothing.

Gu Nanjue frowned and was about to speak when Zhong Zixuan came over, followed by a waiter holding a plate full of wine glasses.

"Miss Huo, I heard from the servant that your clothes are wet?"

"I just so happen to have a spare dress in the lounge upstairs. If you don't mind, why don't you go upstairs and change into it?" Zhong Zixuan was holding a wine glass with a smile on her face.

"No need, it will be done in a moment." Huo Rao refused.

"Raorao, I'll go with you to change."

"That's right, Miss Huo, it's easiest to get sick if you wear wet clothes."

"Xiao He, take Miss Huo and Miss Meng to the lounge." Zhong Zixuan ordered the servant beside her.

Meng Qingyi took Huo Rao's arm and followed Xiao He upstairs.

After Meng Qingyi and Huo Rao left, Zhong Zixuan picked up the wine glass on the plate and said, "Brother Zixuan, I toast to you."

"Thank you for coming to the dinner tonight."

Zhong Zixuan drank it all in one gulp. He Zixuan looked at the wine glass she handed over. Zhong Zixuan had already drunk it, so if he didn't drink it, wouldn't he be ungentlemanly?

He Zixuan immediately took the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

Zhong Zixuan used the same routine to get Mu Zian and Gu Nanjue to drink as well. When it was Chu Jingyan's turn, she took a deep breath and said softly, "Second brother."

"Congratulations, you're married."

Chu Jingyan frowned, took the wine glass, glanced at Zhong Zixuan, raised the glass and drank it.

Zhong Zixuan looked at his rolling Adam's apple and her eyes lit up. "You guys chat, I'll go greet other guests." After saying that, she left in small steps.

He Zixuan nudged Chu Jingyan's arm and laughed, "Chu Er, it seems that Miss Zhong has let you go?"

Chu Jingyan curled his lips, walked aside and ignored him.

A few minutes later, someone came and took He Zixuan and Mu Zian away, leaving only Chu Jingyan and Gu Nanjue.

"Boss Chu." The man greeted him and then said, "Nan Jue, long time no see."

"How is your health lately, old man?" This person was Mr. Wang, who had a close relationship with the Gu family.

"Uncle Wang, grandpa is still in good health."

"That's good. Haven't visited him for a long time?" Gu Nanjue had a pleasant conversation with President Wang.

Chu Jingyan leaned against the table, and suddenly a heat rushed to his forehead. He frowned and said to Gu Nanjue, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Gu Nanjue was talking to Mr. Wang and did not notice Chu Jingyan's abnormality.

As Chu Jingyan walked to the bathroom, he felt more and more hot and unbearable. He was breathing heavily, and there was a fire running rampant in his body.

His handsome face flushed abnormally, he had an idea in his mind, his eyes became sharp, his hands trembled, his teeth clenched, he took out his mobile phone and dialed the number.

He didn't notice that a man in hotel work clothes was following him stealthily.

"Miss, he is still awake and it will be easy for me to be discovered if I go up to him now?" He was talking on the phone.

The woman opposite held her cell phone tightly. She didn't expect Chu Jingyan to be awake for such a long time. Was it because the dosage of the medicine was not enough?

She said into the receiver, "Follow him closely. When he is unconscious, take him to the room upstairs."

lounge

Huo Rao changed into Zhong Zixuan's spare dress. Their bodies were similar, so there was nothing wrong with wearing it.

Meng Qingyi was about to open the door when she saw Huo Rao had changed her clothes, but she twisted the doorknob hard and it didn't open.

She narrowed her eyes and raised an eyebrow, "What's going on?"

"The door won't open?"

Huo Rao walked forward and tried, but it didn't open.

"Was it locked by someone?"

"Is there anyone outside?" Huo Rao shouted.

"Ms. Huo, Miss Meng." Xiao He stood at the door, his expression unrecognizable.

"Sorry, the lounge door was accidentally locked by the waiter. The manager has gone to find a spare key."

"Please wait a moment."

Meng Qingyi frowned. Is it such a coincidence?
Huo Rao and Meng Qingyi looked at each other and glanced at the items in the room. "Then please hurry up."

"Yeah, okay. I'm really sorry, both of you."

Meng Qingyi and Huo Rao didn't say anything. They sat on the sofa in the lounge and waited quietly.

At this moment, Meng Qingyi's cell phone rang. Meng Qingyi looked over and asked, "Second brother?"

There was a sound of running water coming from the other side, "Yiyi, where are you?" Chu Jingyan's voice was hollow, and he was leaning against the bathroom partition with sweat on his forehead.

"Second brother, what's wrong with you?" Meng Qingyi unconsciously clenched her phone.

"I'm in the bathroom." Before Chu Jingyan could finish his words, the call was disconnected.
