Mu Huan had a constitution that was highly sensitive to drugs. Having been drugged with something that was highly potent by Bai Xuexian, she had to quickly leave in search of Bao Junyan.
She could always investigate Lin Qingya’s involvement in this matter and deal with her later on!
As Lin Qingya watched her friend’s departing figure, she fisted her clothes in excitement.
Things might not have gone the way she expected, but Mu Huan’s ultimate departure would allow her to smoothly get what she wanted the most — Gu Chenyi!
Everything would be considered worthwhile as long as she could become his woman tonight!
After Mu Huan exited from the back door, she phoned her husband right away. “Where are you, Hubby?”
“I’m in a meeting. I’ll go over once I’m done here.” The man reckoned that she was calling to urge him.
“No, no. You don’t have to come, I’ll go over and find you. Stay put at the office and wait for me! I’ll be right there!” With that, she ended the call, climbed over her motorbike, and sped all the way to his company.
Bao Junyan cocked his brow slightly as he stared at his phone. Did my little wife just order me around?
Somehow though, that tone of hers managed to dissipate a large part of the gloomy mood that had been hanging over him for the past few days.
He put his phone away, then faced his employees.
“Summarize your reports and focus only on key points.” Since his wife would be coming over in a while, this meeting had to end early.
Everyone stared at their CEO, feeling dumbstruck. The man had actually picked up a call during a meeting despite his usual practice of doing otherwise. Not only did his mood turn for the better after answering the phone call, but he also urged them to quickly end the meeting. They were now truly curious about the identity of the caller who had such influence over their CEO.
He wanted to end this meeting earlier, but the senior management wanted that even more so. His recent foul mood had cast a gloomy atmosphere throughout the entire company, to the point that the executives successively suffered gastritis. Expecting this meeting to be a long and grueling one, they found the news that the meeting would be ending early to be truly a surprise!
Therefore, those who were required to give a report quickly did as told and hurriedly sat back down in their seats once they were done so that the next person could start their report.
This resulted in the supposedly hour-or-so-long meeting to be concluded in less than twenty minutes.
Just when Bao Junyan was about to announce the dismissal of the meeting, Mu Huan suddenly barged into the room.
Like a tornado, she swiftly ran over to his side and ordered, “Get them all to leave now!”
He could tell that something was not right with just one glance at her face. And so, instead of getting his staff to leave, he picked her up in front of the slack-jawed crowd and moved to leave.
Once he reached his office, he closed his door shut.
“You’re drugged? Who’s the culprit?” His gaze turned dreadfully sinister.
The woman, having reached her tolerance limit, pushed her lips against his without any care.
We’ll talk later!
Bai Xuexian knew that Bao Junyan was no fool. If he were to find out that his wife did not willingly carry out a clandestine love affair, he would still get to the bottom of the matter even if he no longer wanted his sullied wife. She would not be spared by then.
So, what she had drugged Mu Huan and Gu Chenyi with was the latest form of aphrodisiac — potent but with temporary effects. It would cause the affected person to lose their rationality and control for sex, and only when the person gets relief through sexual intercourse would they regain their senses. By the time they go for a check-up, the results would show nothing about the drug composition other than some of their physical signs being high. In that case, Bao Junyan would never believe Mu Huan’s words even if she claimed that she was being framed.
It was a very meticulous plan, indeed.
Alas, as the saying went, “God’s plans supersede our own.” Not everything would go as she envisaged, let alone so smoothly and perfectly.
