38 -38: The School Beauty’s Gratitude

After returning to the private booth, Sun Ming watched Lin Mengru and Liu Ying’er with a sinister smile, his eyes occasionally meeting with those of the two other male students beside him.

A little while later, Lin Mengru had drunk almost half a bottle of alcohol and started feeling slightly tipsy.

She turned to Liu Ying’er and said, “Alright, that’s enough for today.

We should head back!”

In fact, the whole idea of coming to the bar street for drinks was Zhang Xiaohua’s.

If it weren’t for Zhang Xiaohua, neither Liu Ying’er nor Lin Mengru would have come out.

Or rather, Lin Mengru had indeed declined Zhang Xiaohua’s invitation, but she ran into the upsetting matter with Su Xuan at her sister’s place, which made her decide to go out for drinks.

Liu Ying’er also disliked such places.

To her, it would have been better to spend the time reading more books in the dormitory.

Besides being recognized as one of the beauties at Qingshan University, she was also an acknowledged academic powerhouse.

She dominated the top ranks of the university examinations year after year.

She received numerous scholarships, often to the point of exhaustion, and was touted as a goddess who embodied both intelligence and beauty!

However, when Sun Ming and the two other male students heard the girls say they were leaving, they became flustered.

Sun Ming swiftly blocked Lin Mengru’s path, his hand stealthily slipping a Medicine Pill into the drink behind his back!

“Don’t be like that, we seldom come out to play, heading back so early would be such a buzzkill.

Mengru, how about one more drink?”

Looking at the drink being handed to her, Lin Mengru didn’t even blink and simply uttered coldly, “Move aside!”

When Sun Ming heard this, his expression froze and then darkened.

“Mengru, we came out to have fun, do you really want our relationship to be this tense?

It’s not an issue for me, but have you thought about how Xiaohua feels?

She definitely doesn’t want her relationship with you guys to sour either.”

While Sun Ming spoke, he cast his gaze towards Zhang Xiaohua who was nearby.

Over the past few days, Zhang Xiaohua had been entirely under Sun Ming’s thumb, obeying his every command.

Upon hearing his words, she too showed a hopeful expression, turning her eyes toward Liu Ying’er and Lin Mengru.

Zhang Xiaohua didn’t have many friends at Qingshan University; the beautiful Liu Ying’er and Lin Mengru might be the only ones she could truly call good friends.

What bothered Zhang Xiaohua was that these two close friends had always looked down on her boyfriend, causing her great distress.

She had long been trying to improve the relationship between her boyfriend and her two best friends.

This time, when Sun Ming approached her with the idea of inviting Liu Ying’er and Lin Mengru out, Zhang Xiaohua was initially suspicious, but she was wooed back by Sun Ming’s sweet-talking and genuinely believed that he wanted to ingratiate himself with her two close friends!

Seeing the look of anticipation on Zhang Xiaohua’s face, Lin Mengru sighed inwardly and her attitude softened.

“Fine, but this is the last drink.

After this, we must go back to the dormitory.”

Zhang Xiaohua’s face immediately lit up with joy upon hearing Lin Mengru’s words, and she smiled, saying, “Of course, no problem!”

As she spoke, she hurriedly took another glass of drink from her boyfriend Sun Ming’s hand and passed it to Liu Ying’er.

It was then that Liu Ying’er spoke for the first time.

Her voice was sweet, warming the heart of those who heard it.

At least Su Xuan, who was behind them in the private booth, upon hearing Liu Ying’er’s voice, couldn’t help but think to himself that this beautiful girl had a voice as lovely as her appearance and wondered how much more pleasant it would be to hear her sing.

Liu Ying’er took the glass from Zhang Xiaohua, her brow slightly furrowed as she hesitated, “Alright, the last one.

Xiaohua, we must go back, or the school dormitory gates will close!”

Upon hearing Liu Ying’er’s words, with a tinge of shyness, Zhang Xiaohua stole a glance at Sun Ming next to her and then whispered inaudibly to the two women, “You guys go ahead, I… I won’t be coming back tonight!”

“Not going back?!”

Mengru was taken aback, looking at the shy, bashful expression on Zhang Xiaohua’s face, her own expression instantly turned cold.

However, thinking that Zhang Xiaohua was Sun Ming’s girlfriend, and that it was not her place to meddle in her choices, Mengru felt a wave of discomfort in her heart.

She could feel that Sun Ming wasn’t a good person, but she had said her piece, and the love-struck Zhang Xiaohua showed no sign of awakening, still hopelessly in love with Sun Ming!

“Ah, never mind, never mind.

It’s up to you, but as your good friend, Xiaohua, I still hope you’ll think it over carefully!”

“Don’t worry, Ru, actually I’ve thought it through a long time ago, I really like Sun Ming!

I’m willing…” Zhang Xiaohua leaned in close to the two women, whispering, while occasionally sneaking peeks at Sun Ming not far away.

Seeing the love-stricken look on this woman’s face, Mengru just shook her head with a wry smile.

At that moment, Sun Ming, seeing that the two women hadn’t yet drunk their glasses of wine, grew somewhat impatient, “Why haven’t you drunk yet?

Drink up and we’ll go back, rest assured I will get Xiaohua home safely!”

“Psh, you’re the one we’re worried about!”

Mengru pursed her lips, though she didn’t voice her inner thoughts.

Just as she and Liu Ying’er were about to drink the wine, a man’s voice suddenly sounded from behind them.

“The wine is spiked, you can’t drink it!”

Instinctively, Mengru smashed her glass of wine to the ground and asked in confusion, “What?!”

“Who?” On the other hand, Sun Ming reflexively jumped up and yelled fiercely at the man who was slowly approaching, “Kid, who are you, I’m warning you, you can eat your food but don’t talk nonsense!”

The man was Su Xuan, who had been waiting by the side.

Walking forward, he looked at Sun Ming’s dark expression and said with a faint smile, “Oh?

Are you saying you didn’t put any medicine in this wine?”

Upon hearing Su Xuan’s words, Mengru exclaimed in shock, disbelievingly looking at the wine glass in Liu Ying’er’s hand, then yelled at Sun Ming, “What is going on, is what he’s saying true?”

“Mengru, Ru…

This guy is a stranger, he’s talking nonsense, you mustn’t believe him!

Moreover, we’ve been classmates for so long, how could I possibly harm you!” As Sun Ming spoke, he was frantically tugging at the sleeve of his girlfriend, Zhang Xiaohua, “Even if you don’t trust me, you should trust Xiaohua.

If you don’t believe me, ask Xiaohua if I drugged the wine!”

After hearing Sun Ming’s defense, Mengru looked confused and then turned her gaze to Su Xuan.

“How come you are here, and you say he spiked the wine, do you have any evidence?”

“Evidence?”

Su Xuan let out a cold laugh, shaking his head dismissively, “What evidence do we need?

Since he says there’s none, why don’t you have him drink it himself?”

Upon hearing this suggestion, Mengru’s eyes lit up, and she immediately took the wine glass from Liu Ying’er’s hand and handed it directly to Sun Ming.

“If you drink this glass of wine, we will believe you didn’t drug it!

Otherwise, I’ll have to call the police!”

Hearing Mengru’s words, Sun Ming shuddered involuntarily, but he still didn’t dare to reach out and take the glass of wine.

He was well aware that the drink had been spiked with a powerful sedative.

Not just any person, but even an ox could be knocked out by it!
