Xiao Yunjing nodded at Wuyou, then turned to Gu Qingyan. "Planning to drug your own food and then demand compensation from us?"
Xiao Yunjing always spoke directly, never mincing words.
Gu Qingyan froze and lowered his head. He hadn't expected Xiao Yunjing to be so blunt. Could he admit it? Of course not. If he did, he would lose all face.
That was, in fact, exactly what he had planned. Initially, he'd considered using something lethal, but realizing that was a criminal offense punishable by imprisonment, he opted for laxatives in his own bowl. After a bout of diarrhea, he would blame Xiao Yunjing's unhygienic food, cause some trouble, demand compensation, and use the opportunity to visit more often. Wouldn't that forge a connection?
Who would have thought his plan would be exposed before he could even administer the drug?
He was still wondering who had struck his hand and foiled his scheme.
