Chapter 475 My Fingernails Are Poisonous~
Something felt...off.
Ye Ershao watched Chi Xiaocheng's expression change, then noticed that she was staring at the wine glass in his hand.
And that strange smell from just now...
Even the slow-witted Ye Ershao realized something was wrong and quickly took two steps back, away from Chi Xiaocheng. "What did you do!"
He couldn't feel her cuteness and weakness from just now at all.
No, he could still feel the cuteness, but the weakness had almost completely disappeared!
Chi Xiaocheng calmly sat back down on the sofa and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing. Didn't you notice the wine tasted strange?" She smoothed out the wrinkles in her dress, her posture elegant. "At events like this, the food is always strictly checked. If only your glass tastes wrong..."
"The wine...is poisoned?" Ye Ershao's expression changed drastically. He pointed at Chi Xiaocheng. "You were acting!"
"You figured it out." Chi Xiaocheng giggled. Facing Ye Ershao's accusation, she wasn't afraid at all. Instead, like a little devil, she issued a minion's warning, "You better keep your voice down. If you shout and alert someone, if something happens to me, you'll definitely die too."
Ye Ershao gasped. He never expected that this seemingly delicate and pitiful girl from just a moment ago could be so vicious!
Did she just poison his wine?
No, how could she have done it?
She's bluffing!
Ye Ershao calmed down considerably. Like Tom the cat pointing at Doraemon, he pointed a finger at Chi Xiaocheng while also letting out a disdainful laugh. "You're lying. You didn't have a chance to poison this wine at all!"
That's right. From the moment the waiter handed her the wine and she gave it to him, the whole process only took a few seconds. How could she have poisoned it?
Unless the waiter was one of her people.
But was that possible?
This little thing is really cunning. She tasted that the wine had gone bad and then lied to trick him.
Really, scaring himself for nothing.
Ye Ershao recomposed his cheerful and optimistic mindset.
But then Chi Xiaocheng raised a slender index finger.
Ye Ershao frowned. "What do you mean by that?"
"Dummy, I hid the poison in my fingernail, of course!"
"What?!"
Ye Ershao's eyes widened in disbelief. "But...but you just licked your finger!"
"But I have the antidote."
Chi Xiaocheng was fearless, knowing she had the upper hand. She discovered this trick was really effective.
First Chen Qian, then Special Envoy Qiu last time, and now Ye Ershao.
There was definitely no antidote, and the poison wasn't real poison. She just changed the taste a bit.
But she knew that people of this status usually didn't dare to gamble.
Ye Ershao was the same.
His gaze flickered uncertainly.
Chi Xiaocheng narrowed her eyes and smiled slightly. "You can also try seeing if your doctors from Beijing can solve it, but I feel like it'll be quite difficult. After all, Si Chen has been listening to my every command ever since he took my poison."
Hearing this, Ye Ershao's pupils shrank again. "No wonder that profit-driven guy has been constantly circling around you!"
If even a guy like Si Chen couldn't do anything about this poison, then wouldn't he be...
Ye Ershao's expression was uncertain as one thought after another raced through his mind.
And Chi Xiaocheng, watching him struggle, was secretly overjoyed.
Because she was constantly hearing system notifications in her mind.
[Emotional value from Ye Ershao +32...]
[Emotional value from Ye Ershao +44...]
[Emotional value from Ye Ershao +66...]
Since this wasn't her first meeting with Ye Ershao, and he'd already given her some emotional value before, as the one who had taken over Ye Liang's role, he had so much to offer.
It couldn't help but remind Chi Xiaocheng of when she first got to know Chu Lingfeng. Back then, the Great Divine Doctor Chu was Chi Xiaocheng's number one emotional value tool.
Chi Xiaocheng wasn't anxious. She elegantly placed her small hand on her abdomen, leaned back against the sofa, and glanced in the direction Su Tao had just left. The girl still hadn't returned.
She said casually, "Ye Ershao, you can wait and see. If you don't have my antidote, in about three days, you'll be begging me to agree."
Hearing this, Ye Ershao's expression was as cold as ice. "Chi Xiaocheng, do you know that even though I'm a bit aloof and don't like causing trouble, that doesn't mean I'm the kind of docile person who's easily threatened!"
"No one has ever dared to threaten me before!"
Chi Xiaocheng tilted her head, looking innocent. "Well, now there is."
"???"
You're even proud of it, aren't you!
Ye Ershao snorted coldly. "It seems the negotiation I was originally planning to have with you is going to fall apart."
Chi Xiaocheng blinked, unfazed.
Ye Ershao's face was indeed a bit serious when he wore a stern expression, but the system notifications hadn't stopped.
As the world's will's practically brand-new "new character," Ye Ershao had already given her 250 points of emotional value in just two minutes.
Clearly, he was bluffing.
Seeing that Chi Xiaocheng still didn't react, Ye Ershao snorted coldly. "In that case, Chi Xiaocheng, prepare to face my wrath!"
He flung his sleeve and turned to leave.
Chi Xiaocheng blinked again and asked curiously, "You don't want the antidote?"
"Heh ha ha ha! You think I'd believe you? I bet there are only bacteria in your fingernails!"
With a toss of his head, Ye Ershao completely entered the crowd, truly breaking off relations with Chi Xiaocheng.
Even Chi Xiaocheng was surprised that Ye Ershao didn't fall for it.
Could this be a case of great wisdom appearing foolish?
However, there was one thing she had to refute.
A beautiful girl's fingernails couldn't possibly have even bacteria, okay?
However, she still had some worries in her heart.
She was really afraid that Ye Ershao would fight to the death.
Glancing in Su Tao's direction, she noticed the girl still hadn't returned, so Chi Xiaocheng called out in her mind, "Xiao Hei."
"Understood."
The cold voice sounded in her ear, followed by a black dress that only Chi Xiaocheng could see. She stepped toward the direction Ye Ershao left in, wearing long boots engraved with star butterflies.
At the same time, one hand was holding Chi Xiaocheng's personal weapon.
It shocked her. "Wait, what did you understand?"
"Didn't you want to eliminate future troubles? I'm going to take advantage of Ye Ershao's departure to stab him."
"Wait a minute! I'm saying, he's still protected by the world's will. What if he gets anxious and fights you to the death?"
Whether Ye Ershao lived or died didn't matter. Chi Xiaocheng didn't want to lose Xiao Hei just like that.
Even if Xiao Hei traded one life for one with the world's will, it would still be a loss in the end.
After all, she had been with her for hundreds of reincarnations.
Chi Xiaocheng stopped Xiao Hei and then said, "What I mean is, before Ye Ershao leaves your range of movement, you should secretly follow him and see what he's really thinking about the poison I gave him."
If he really wanted to fight to the death, then Chi Xiaocheng would really have to prepare in advance.
