The waiter brought two more glasses of red wine.
Ming Jing took a step ahead of Li Jiaojiao and picked up the glass of red wine closest to her, smiling and raising her eyebrows, “Miss Li, please.”
Li Jiaojiao frowned, looking at the remaining glass, her expression not very pleasant.
She didn’t believe Zhu Mingjing could predict the future.
As the saying goes, one shouldn’t refuse a friendly gesture. She had to drink this glass of wine, whether she wanted to or not…
Li Jiaojiao had just picked up the red wine when the waiter, feeling relieved, tried to leave.
Li Jiaojiao’s expression changed, and she shouted, “Stop.”
The waiter’s figure stiffened. He turned around and asked nervously, “Miss, do you have any orders?”
“What are you nervous about?” Li Jiaojiao looked him up and down.
Ming Jing had a faint smile on her lips, changed to a comfortable sitting position, waiting to see the drama unfold.
Zhao Qin glanced at Ming Jing, finding her even smarter than she had thought.
Ming Jing didn’t drink the wine, which would reduce the upcoming effect considerably.
The waiter stuttered, “No… Not nervous…”
“Nonsense, the air conditioning in the hall is so strong, yet you’re sweating.
Are you feeling guilty?”
The waiter opened his mouth to argue, but Li Jiaojiao suddenly pushed the wine glass in front of him: “Drink it.”
The waiter looked frightened and shook his head involuntarily, “I…” “What do you mean ‘I’? I’m ordering you, drink it.” Li Jiaojiao became domineering, quite intimidating.
The commotion here immediately attracted many eyes. Li Jiaojiao was known for her bullying, and some thought she was still up to her old tricks at the Zhus’ party, showing no restraint.
The waiter clenched his teeth, thinking that he could tolerate the small dose, so he took the wine glass and drained it.
Holding the empty glass, he looked at Li Jiaojiao and asked resentfully, “Miss Li, can I leave now?”
Li Jiaojiao looked at him silently.
The waiter turned and walked away. After a few steps, he suddenly began to tear at his clothes. As he tore, he let out strange screams. In just a few moments, he became “completely exposed.”
Some young ladies covered their eyes when they saw this scene, and screamed exaggeratedly, “Pervert!”
Bai Ziyan had been paying attention to Ming Jing’s side and immediately became excited, “The climax of tonight’s banquet is here. I can’t miss this excitement.” He then pushed through the crowd with Jiang Jinchen.
Lin Qing came over with a stern face, looked at Ming Jing and Li Jiaojiao, and then at the now half-naked waiter in a frenzied state. Frowning, he asked, “What happened?”
Uncle Wen came over with the security guards and quickly restrained the waiter, pressing him to the ground with his hands behind his back.
Li Jiaojiao sneered, “Madam Zhu, is this your way of treating guests? Spiking the wine? If it weren’t for this guy’s poor mental strength, I’m afraid I would be the one losing face now, right?”
The guests gathered around. Hearing Li Jiaojiao’s words, they were shocked. Spiked wine?
Everyone attending the banquet today was a prominent figure in Jiangzhou. How could the Zhus’ management have allowed for such a despicable trick?
Everyone looked at the wine glass in their hand, feeling sick to their stomachs.
Looking at the half-naked, frantic waiter, they couldn’t help but think… If it had happened to a girl instead… the consequences would be unthinkable.Lin Qing’s face changed as she looked at the man kneeling on the ground and said coldly, “Using such despicable means at the Zhu family’s banquet, if I find out who’s behind this, I won’t let them off easily.”
The servant was half-fainted and half-crazed, and Lin Qing ordered, “Bring cold water.”
The security guard quickly brought a basin of cold water, and Uncle Wen took it and poured it over the servant’s head. The servant shivered and instantly sobered up.
He looked around at the angry faces in confusion, and then at his bare upper body. His face turned pale after being flushed red just a moment ago. He trembled as he knelt on the ground.
“Tell me who instructed you?”
“Madam, I made a mistake. I will tell, I will say everything. Three days ago, a stranger added me on WeChat and asked me to do something for her. She gave me 50,000 yuan as a down payment and promised another 50,000 when the job was done. My son has leukemia and I desperately needed the money, so I agreed… She told me to drug Miss Ming Jing’s drink today. I was afraid of killing someone, so I asked her what kind of drug it was. She said it was a sleep-inducing drug, just to make Ming Jing faint during the banquet. This would spread rumors that Ming Jing was weak and sickly and her goal would be achieved. No one would suspect me afterwards. But I didn’t know it would be such a harmful substance. If I had known from the beginning, I wouldn’t have dared to do it.”
Everyone’s expressions varied greatly. The target was actually tonight’s banquet’s main star?
They all looked at Ming Jing subconsciously, only to see her standing quietly, with calm and gentle eyes and a soft smile on her lips.
Someone with such a malicious scheme targeted such a lovely girl. Their heart must be punished severely.
Li Jiaojiao went up and kicked the man, who rolled on the ground and immediately knelt down again.
“What a wicked intention. If I hadn’t noticed your guilty conscience, do you know what would have happened to Ming Jing if she drank this? She just came back to Jiangzhou, who could she have offended? Speak up, who instructed you? If you don’t tell me, I’ll send you to prison and you’ll never see your son again.”
The servant shook his head in fear, “I really don’t know. We only communicated on WeChat. Oh, I have her WeChat ID….”
The servant took out his cellphone from his pocket, found the most recent contact on WeChat, and handed it to Li Jiaojiao. “Miss Li, I’m not lying. This is her WeChat ID. You have great connections, you must be able to find out who it is. Please, just don’t send me to jail…”.
Lin Qing subconsciously furrowed her brows, she wasn’t foolish. The situation was becoming more and more strange. As Li Jiaojiao said, Ming Jing just came back, who could she have offended?
It couldn’t be… by instinct, Lin Qing dismissed the thought.
Li Jiaojiao analyzed, “The person targeting Ming Jing must hate her very much. They must be watching all this happen. I suspect this person is here. I’ll call the number now and whoever’s phone rings, it will be obvious who is responsible.”
At that moment, a handsome young man squeezed through the crowd and walked out with a smile, “Since this person could come up with such a malicious plan and fool everyone, they must have planned it through. It’s too far-fetched to determine the mastermind just by who has the phone. What if it’s a setup? We should investigate the ID instead.”
Li Jiaojiao furrowed her brow at the grinning young man, “Who are you?” “Who I am is not important; just know that my friend here is a hacking genius.”
As he spoke, he gestured to the taciturn young man next to him, “Hero, it’s time to save the beauty.”
Jiang Jinchen shook his head helplessly, looked at Ming Jing, but didn’t object.
The young man snatched the phone from Li Jiaojiao and instructed Charles
Gao, “Bring a computer.”
As Jiang Jinchen skillfully typed on the keyboard, Li Jiaojiao glanced uneasily at Zhao Qin. Zhao Qin gave her a reassuring look, and Li Jiaojiao let out a sigh of relief. She stole a glance at Zhu Xiangxiang, who was standing on the periphery of the crowd, straining her neck to look over. A fleeting look of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
Zhu Xiangxiang suddenly felt uneasy.
While Jiang Jinchen was typing, Bai Ziyan circled over to Ming Jing and asked playfully, “Miss Zhu, are you close to your brother?”
Ming Jing smiled slightly, ‘What do you think?”
Bai Ziyan pursed his lips, “Your brother is so annoying, you must not be close.”
Ming Jing’s eyes flickered, and she looked seriously at Bai Ziyan.
Bai Ziyan blinked, “Did you suddenly think I’m handsome?”
Finding a WeChat ID for a top hacker was a piece of cake. Jiang Jinchen stopped typing and calmly said, “I’ve found it.”
He then looked up at Zhu Xiangxiang standing outside the crowd, his eyes cold and haunting..
