《Love's Vicissitudes: A Pursuit of Beloved Wife》C36. Using Drug to Frame
Advertisement
"Come back!" As Yuexi pushes the door and walks out, the harsh words of Li Fengjue are fading away. She comes to the hall. From afar, she notices that Lin Chuchu is sitting beside Xu Tianyun. Sure enough, Lin Chuchu wants to hook up with this rich and lascivious young man.
She curls up the corners of her mouth, then her look becomes keen. Since Lin Chuchu is so eager to hook up with him, as a colleague, Yuexi decides to give her a little help. Without being noticed, she takes the drug out of her bag, grinds it into powder, and puts it into a bottle of wine that she casually picked up before. Then she walks towards these two elegantly.
"I didn't expect you to be here, too." Yuexi firstly pours wine into the glasses of these two, then raises her own, smiles, and says, "The wine tastes really good." After she swallows it neat, Xu Tianyun is assured enough and drinks his. After all, he is a cautious man.
When these three have finished sharing the bottle of wine, Yuexi feels slightly relieved. Just then, the music is playing on the dance floor. Xu Tianyun reaches out to her, "Miss Bai, can I ask you to dance?"
Yuexi expresses the unpredictable feelings through her dark eyes. She rubs her ankles awkwardly, and says, "My ankle is sprained, I'm afraid I cannot dance..." Before she finishes the sentences, Lin Chuchu cuts in, "Master Xu always shows pity and tenderness to women. He won’t force you to dance, you just rest here. " Xu Tianyun frowns, and says, " But now I have no one to dance with,"
"I think Chuchu should be able to dance with you. After all, she has been single for a long time, and it seems that she has not brought a male companion today." Yuexi looks at Lin Chuchu. After hearing this, Lin Chuchu looks back to her with a little surprise, as if she did not seem to expect that Yuexi would help her. Then she smiles, and says, "Master Xu, so ..."

Xu Tianyun then takes a closer look at Lin Chuchu, nods, and says with a smile, "Miss Chuchu, it is my pleasure to dance with you." Hearing this, Lin Chuchu smiles even more proudly, turns to Yuexi, and says, "We are going to dance, you take care of yourself, Yuexi." Watching them leave, Yuexi smiles.
Lin Chuchu looks shockingly beautiful. With her amazingly hot figure, there is no way that Xu Tianyun remains unattracted by her. People who have been drinking are now all dancing to the music. They gather together, moving their bodies. There are some rich men who are looking for beautiful women. They keep searching for prey in the crowd. Many of them do not know whom they are dancing with.
Yuexi curls up the corners of her mouth, smiles evilly. She puts down her glass of wine, stands up, and wants to leave. The climax of the story is about to come. She originally wanted to stay and see what could happen. But in order not to arouse the suspicions of Xu Tianyun, she needs to leave this place before the medicinal effect kicks in. After all, she drinks up the wine as well.
Thinking of this, she grabs her bag and is ready to leave. Suddenly, her wrist is caught by someone. Yuexi looks back in confusion, and sees a strange man. He is about thirty years old, with an average-weight figure.
The man fixes his eyes on her chest, which makes Yuexi frown with disgust. Yuexi seems to have met this man before. He seems to have made business with her company. The man says, “Miss Bai, may I dance with you?”
Yuexi thought about it thoroughly for a while, and she suddenly remembers that this man seems to be called Zhao Gang. He once worked with her company two months ago, and seemed to be operating a logistics company. She suppresses the urge to roll her eyes. Because she understands that she cannot offend anyone here.

She laughs with embarrassment, and says, "Sorry, my ankle is sprained, and I just want to go back to take a rest now." Zhao Gang shows her a fake smile, and says softly, "Let me take you home. Or would you like to go to hospital? "
Just before Yuexi opens her mouth to say anything, she hears a low, cold voice coming from afar, "You are such a catch today." After hearing this voice, she feels disturbed. Yuexi turns around and sees that Li Fengjue is walking towards her. How can this man be omnipresent?
All she wants now is to leave here quickly. She thought that she only had to get rid of Zhao Gang. But now she also has to deal with Li Fengjue! Yuexi wants to turn away, but Li Fengjue stands motionless in front of her. His eyes fall on the man behind her, and he curls his lips, "Mr. Zhao, how’s your wife?"
He asks, while looking at Yuexi with a suspicious look. Yuexi gives him a cold stare. What does he mean? Does he think that she's seducing this man? Zhao Gang is pissed off, but he could only answer obediently. It is because it’s Li Fengjue who asks the question.
"My wife just had a baby a while ago. Now she's out of shape and it is inconvenient for her to come out. Well, I do not see Master Li’s companion." Li Fengjue says lightly, "She was here just now, but she has been back.” Hearing this, Yuexi suddenly says, "I did not expect Mr. Li to bring your wife here."
Zhao Gang's eyes glow, and he quickly asks, "Was that your wife?" Li Fengjue doesn't answer, but turns to glance at Yuexi, with a sense of warning in his eyes. Yuexi’s head quickly turns away. And at this moment, she suddenly feels the warmth in her stomach, as if she was being burned by fire.
She notices that something goes wrong and she feels the urge to leave. But these two men beside her seem to stay. Yuexi is anxious, and feels like that she is on pins and needles. She looks at the two of them. Although she said she could not offend them, if she didn't leave right now, she might ...
Thinking of this, Yuexi casually says some compliments, grabs the bag, and wants to leave. It looks like that Zhao Gang doesn't plan to stay there, either. Seeing Yuexi is about to leave, Li Fengjue also stands up. "Sit down!"
Li Fengjue says in a soft voice, but his vibe is strong. Yuexi is just about to leave, but then she gets pulled into his arms. Zhao Gang looks with disgust, and leaves. Yuexi screams a little, and gets her ankle sprained again. She frowns in pain.
Li Fengjue then notices that there is something strange with her. He looks down at her feet, raises her legs, and examines them carefully. Li Fengjue says coldly when Yuexi is struggling a few times, "Don't move!" His voice sounds very threatening. The man puts forth his strength. Yuexi screams.
“You cannot go anywhere, especially when your feet are swelling like this!” “None of your business!” Yuexi looks at him with dissatisfaction, and withdraws her feet. She stands up, trying to leave. Li Fengjue quickly follows, takes off the coat, and puts it on Yuexi. “You are not allowed to wear so little next time!" He says as he reaches for Yuexi’s hand, and takes her out of here.
