Chapter 20 Pretending to be Drunk
The next day, when Li Chenxu finished breakfast and went to the company, Mu Xiaoyu called Wu Qianru to reply about going to Haoting.
After almost a day, Wu Qianru had almost given up hope when she suddenly received a call from Mu Xiaoyu, and she was so happy she almost jumped for joy.
She's going to get back at the Grand Court tonight for all the bugs she ate yesterday and the embarrassment Mu Xiaoyu made her lose at the banquet!
Mu Xiaoyu, just you wait and see!
Before going to the Grand Mansion that evening, Mu Xiaoyu dressed herself up a little. She wasn't dressed as elaborately as she had been for the banquets before. Although she didn't know what Wu Qianru wanted to do to her, since she chose a place like the Grand Mansion, it was highly likely that she wanted to frame her and make her get involved with another man.
In that case, dressing up too beautifully might just give malicious people something to gossip about.
Mu Xiaoyu arrived at Haoting right on time. When she arrived, Wu Qianru was standing anxiously at the door. When she saw Mu Xiaoyu, she quickly ran to her side and affectionately took Mu Xiaoyu's arm: "Xiaoyu, you're finally here. I thought you weren't coming."
"How could that be? Since I promised to come, I definitely would. It's just that something came up on the way and I was delayed. You won't blame me, will you?"
Anyone can act. Besides, Mu Xiaoyu had already seen through Wu Qianru's true colors, and now what she was saying made it impossible for anyone to tell that she was faking it.
Wu Qianru, as expected, had no suspicions. Upon hearing this, she didn't say much, but pulled Mu Xiaoyu towards the private room, saying as they walked, "It's been a long time since my sister and I have come out alone like this. We must have a good get-together today..."
As they spoke, the two entered the private room. The moment they stepped inside, Mu Xiaoyu noticed the bottles of liquor on the table in the center. There were only two of them, yet there were at least seven or eight bottles on the table. If they drank them all, they'd be sure to get drunk.
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but sneer inwardly, but on the surface, she feigned surprise as she looked at Wu Qianru: "Qianru, are there other people here? How come... there's so much wine?"
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's 'timid' appearance, Wu Qianru felt a surge of disdain: "Xiaoyu, although it's just the two of us, as I just said, we haven't gone out together alone in a long time. So these drinks are for us. But we're not supposed to finish them all. In a place like Haoting, it's good to order a few more drinks to make a good impression, right?"
"That's good, that's good. I'm not a good drinker; I get drunk easily after just a little."
If Mu Xiaoyu really couldn't drink, then she would be playing right into Wu Qianru's hands. To achieve her goal today, she had to get Mu Xiaoyu drunk first; after all, drugging her was too risky, and if Li Chenxu investigated, she'd be finished…
Thinking of this, Wu Qianru quickly pulled Mu Xiaoyu down to sit, opened a bottle of wine and handed it to her, saying with a smile, "Xiaoyu, don't worry, we're not strangers, and there are no outsiders here. You can do whatever you want..."
After saying that, Wu Qianru began to toast Mu Xiaoyu. Mu Xiaoyu pretended to be clueless, just like before, and obediently drank whenever Wu Qianru toasted her.
Before long, the seven or eight bottles of wine on the table were reduced to only one or two. Mu Xiaoyu stood up unsteadily, looking uncomfortable, and said to Wu Qianru, "Qianru, I need to... go to the restroom first. I'll... I'll come back and we can continue drinking..."
Mu Xiaoyu was now so drunk she was incoherent. She stammered as she finished speaking, then staggered towards the restroom. Until she entered the restroom, Mu Xiaoyu appeared completely intoxicated, but once inside, her demeanor changed drastically. Her bright eyes, in particular, were clear and lucid; she didn't look drunk at all.
The private room was dimly lit. She did drink the first couple of glasses of wine, but later, when Wu Qianru wasn't paying attention, she poured out all the wine, or rather, let it all flow down her neck and into her clothes. It looked like she was drinking, but she didn't actually drink any of it.
Mu Xiaoyu was still sticky and felt really uncomfortable. She first cleaned off the wine stains on her body, then washed her face with cold water, and then pretended to be drunk again, swaying as she walked into the private room.
However, she wasn't in a hurry to go in. Wu Qianru hadn't just brought her here to get her drunk; there must be some other purpose. She wanted to see what Wu Qianru was planning.
Sure enough, as soon as Mu Xiaoyu entered the private room, she carefully peeked through the crack in the door and saw Wu Qianru talking on the phone.
"You just wait for us there... Don't worry, you know how I handle things... Okay..."
Because the surrounding environment was too noisy, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't hear what Wu Qianru and the other person were saying, and couldn't make sense of it. Mu Xiaoyu was too lazy to stand outside the door any longer, so she pushed the door open and went in.
Upon seeing Mu Xiaoyu enter, Wu Qianru quickly spoke a few words to the person on the other end of the phone and then hung up.
"Xiaoyu, are you alright? Are you drunk?"
Wu Qianru quickly came over and helped Mu Xiaoyu sit down. Mu Xiaoyu stared at Wu Qianru with 'confused' eyes, then hugged Wu Qianru tightly, and the next second she hit Wu Qianru hard twice.
"Li Chenxu...you big bad guy...all you do is bully me...I...I'll beat you to death..."
Wu Qianru was inexplicably punched several times by Mu Xiaoyu. Mu Xiaoyu usually seemed like a weak person, but who knew she was so strong? After being punched a few times, Wu Qianru's face immediately contorted in pain.
But she couldn't retaliate; Mu Xiaoyu's appearance clearly showed that he was drunk and mistook her for Li Chenxu!
Wu Qianru was furious, but then she thought about what was about to happen, and her expression immediately softened.
Suppressing the urge to slap Mu Xiaoyu, Wu Qianru forced a smile and said to the 'drunk' Mu Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu? Xiaoyu? Are you asleep?"
Mu Xiaoyu didn't answer Wu Qianru. With her eyes closed, she mumbled something from time to time, looking like a typical drunkard.
Seeing this, Wu Qianru finally stopped being polite and directly took out her phone to send a text message to that person. Just a few minutes later, a tall man walked in...
