238: C238 Poisoning

C238 Poisoning

Even if the people who knew didn't ask, it didn't mean that Su Liancheng, who loved gossiping, wouldn't ask.

Su Liancheng hadn't even eaten two mouthfuls of the dish, yet he still hadn't forgotten the gossip.

"Ah, the girl is still in business? I wonder what kind of business the girl is in? " Su Liancheng was full of pride.

His handsome eyebrows were raised as he stared at Xiao Jing'er with interest.

Xiao Jing'er suddenly turned her head and looked into Su Liancheng's watery eyes as if they collided. Xiao Jing'er was flustered and turned her face away, not daring to meet Su Liancheng's gaze.

Phew...

This person... How do eyes grow?

Unlike Murong Yun, Su Liancheng's eyes seemed to be born to seduce women. He had a pair of alluring peach shaped eyes, but due to his obsession with cleanliness and coldness, he caused people to unconsciously fear him and did not dare to have any feelings for him.

Xiao Jing'er was already twenty-five years old, and she had never put a man in her eyes. But now, Xiao Jing'er's way of thinking had undergone a small change.

Xiao Jing'er coughed lightly and said, "This is just a small business deal. It's not something that can be done in public."

Lin Zimo was afraid that Su Liancheng would say something outrageous and wanted to stop him. "Lian City!"

Who knew that Su Liancheng only glanced at Lin Zimo indifferently. He did not understand Lin Zimo's meaning at all, or pretended to not understand it. Su Liancheng was a gossiper to begin with.

Didn't he know all about Eighth Sister-in-law's friends?

Mo was serious, he actually wanted to interrupt him? Tsk tsk, Mo has learnt to be tactful.

"Small business is also business. Right, how should I address this lady? "What's your last name?" Su Liancheng wanted to take this opportunity to find out Xiao Jing'er's identity. I don't think there is such a girl in the capital, right?

Xiao Jing'er didn't want to reveal her surname. She thought for a moment before replying, "My surname is Hei."

Black Widow's dark.

Su Liancheng: "..."

He couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "I've never heard of any families with the surname Hei, could they be the descendants of the Black Impermanence?"

No matter how soft her voice was, it could not escape the hearing ability of Xiao Jing'er.

The corner of Xiao Jing'er's mouth twitched as she looked at Luo Jianjian calmly.

Unexpectedly, Master had a... If there was a crazy person like Su Liancheng, would his master learn to be bad?

"Black..." "Miss Black, my surname is Su and I'm from Liancheng, and since Miss Black is Eighth Sister-in-law's friend, then she's also my friend. Miss Black, what business do you want me to do? If you don't mind, I can help too, right?" Su Liancheng was extremely cocky: "Little girl, you don't know, I'm lacking in everything except money. As long as it's something that can be done with money, it's not a problem."

Luo Jianjian and the rest, "..."

It was like they had come to a big blind date?

Usually, Su Liancheng wouldn't even be able to hide from a girl's house. So much effort to "promote" him?

There must be something wrong with this matter!

Xiao Jing'er was also a straightforward girl. Her words almost scared Su Liancheng to death: "Really? My business is light, woman, and man. I wonder if Young Noble Su can capture the girls from rich families in the capital city? "As for the rest, I'll do it myself."

Su Liancheng's face was full of fear! He even hurriedly stuffed a few large pieces of fat into his mouth and covered his chest with one hand as he mumbled, "Hey, hey, hey …" You actually do that kind of business? No way, I can't help you with this business! "Not even Eighth Sister-in-law's friends!"

Obviously, Su Liancheng was thinking wrongly and thought of Xiao Jing'er as his "mother".

However, Xiao Jing'er didn't intend to defend herself. Rather than revealing her real 'business', it would be better to let Su Liancheng misunderstand.

Xiao Jing'er's many years of experience told her that she couldn't trust anyone other than herself.

Of course, there was one more person — Luo Jianjian.

"If I can't help, then forget it." Xiao Jing'er didn't care.

It was still Luo Jianjian who opened her mouth to interrupt the two people. Although she was reproaching them, she had a smile on her face as she joked, "Alright, Su Liancheng, stop messing around. And you, you should not do business like you did before. " Not good for them.

When she first guessed Luo Jianjian's identity, she wasn't that convinced. Until Luo Jianjian beat her, reaching such an achievement at such a young age and even getting into Eighth Prince's eyes, she believed that in many years, Luo Jianjian would definitely bring her to rebuild the flourishing Xiao clan!

"Fourth Miss is right, I understand."

He didn't know if it was because Su Liancheng was suspicious or if it was because Su Liancheng always felt that the attitude of the "black girl" towards Eighth Sister-in-law was not like that of a friend, but more like a master and his subordinates.

The black girl was especially honest in front of Eighth Sister-in-law?

Su Liancheng blinked his eyes. His eyes were even prettier than a woman's!

No, he must have been thinking too much, right? Since when did Eighth Sister-in-law have her own power? And that kind of business?

Pah pah pah! Absolutely!

"Let's eat first. We'll talk later if there's anything to say." Luo Jianjian didn't say too many polite words. Everyone present was on their own team, so it wouldn't be too late to talk later.

With Su Liancheng's gossipy mouth, he wouldn't even be able to eat this meal if they started a conversation right now.

There were twenty dishes in total, and Luo Jianjian was tasting them one by one.

He had only eaten two pieces before Luo Jianjian picked up an untouched pork chop and put it into her mouth. "Pa Da!"

The ribs were knocked onto the table by Murong Yun.

Luo Jianjian was enraged, "Murong Yun, what are you doing?!"

Can't you eat properly?

"Eh? Eighth brother, what are you doing? That's Eighth Sister-in-law's favorite pork chop. Be careful that Eighth Sister-in-law doesn't quarrel with you over it! "

Murong Yun's eyes sparkled. "Something's wrong with the ribs."

When Lin Zimo heard this, he took out a few silver needles from somewhere and put it into the ribs that Luo Jianjian dropped.

"There's poison in the meat!"

As the ribs were Luo Jianjian's favorite dish, everyone else tactfully chose not to move their chopsticks. It was too late for Xiao Jing'er.

Coincidentally, Lin Zimo tried all the dishes and found that only the ribs were poisonous. This was clearly indicating that they wanted to poison Luo Jianjian.

For a moment, no one had the mood to continue eating.

On the serious matter, Su Liancheng's face sank: "I'll go capture them."

This could be considered their territory, yet they were poisoned in their own territory? You can't let others laugh to death when you speak of it?

Luckily, Eighth Sister-in-law didn't eat it! Fortunately, eighth brother was on guard!

Eighth brother must have noticed that the color of the Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs was a little different from usual, so he felt a little better.

Fortunately, this was the case, otherwise … Eighth Sister-in-law was definitely going to be poisoned!1

Xiao Jing'er immediately looked around cautiously. The moment something was wrong, she would immediately rush out.

Luo Jianjian slammed her chopsticks angrily on the table. "Are you still going to let me eat properly?"

She was so hungry! Hungry!

Su Liancheng was very efficient. All the dishes were served with the cooking. In any case, the people he had interacted with before were all brought here by him.

One of them was the cook, while the other two served dishes.

Because the business in the tavern was better and there were many waiters, there was far more than one person serving dishes to Luo Jianjian and the others.
