I Was Seduced Into a Marriage After Failing to Charm the Tyrannical Bigshot Chapter 458

 Chapter 458 Dinner Party 5

Xu Meixi coughed violently, and Xie Shi'an pretended to be surprised and said, "Is there anyone on the other side?"

He supported Sang Qianqian and turned around the long corridor with dense branches and leaves.

But he saw Li Zhongjin holding Xu Meixi's hand and smiling at them: "Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie are also out?"

“There are many people in the banquet hall, and my wife is pregnant. She feels disturbed by the noise and wants to come out for some air.”

 Xie Shi'an nodded, with a very natural expression, "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Li and Miss Xu here."

Li Zhongjin said: "We also came here to have a look, and we are going back now."

 He turned back to Xu Meixi and said, "We have been out for so long, it's time for us to leave."

 After saying that, he couldn't help but half hugged Xu Meixi and was about to leave.

Xu Meixi obviously didn't want to leave, but Li Zhongjin couldn't resist Li Zhongjin because of his strong strength, so he carried him forward.

Sang Qianqian naturally couldn't let her be taken away like this, so she said anxiously: "Wait a minute."

Li Zhongjin and Xu Meixi were both stunned. Xu Meixi looked deeply at Sang Qianqian and said nothing.

Li Zhongjin's expression froze for a second, “Why, is there anything else, Mrs. Xie?”

Sang Qianqian was so impatient that she finally found a reason: "Miss Xu, I see that you have difficulty walking. Did you sprain your ankle? There is trauma medicine in Shi'an's car. Can I take care of it for you?"

Li Zhongjin's tense expression softened slightly: “No, she.”

 “Then I'll trouble Mrs. Xie.”

Xu Meixi said softly, "The heel of these shoes is too high and I'm not used to it. I did twist it a little bit and it hurt a little."

 “My car is parked right there, very close.”

Xie Shi'an immediately said, "Miss Xu, you can go with my wife. I'll just wait outside."

Xu Meixi thanked her, and then said to Li Zhongjin: "Then you go back to the banquet hall first? I'll take care of it, and I'll come find you later."

In front of Xie Shi'an and Sang Qianqian, Li Zhongjin was naturally embarrassed to stop him, so he could only nod: "Then I'll wait for you."

 “No, you go upstairs first.”

Xu Meixi smiled and said, "There will be an auction later. Didn't you say you wanted to take a photo of that sapphire necklace for me? If you miss it, I will be angry."

 The tone was a bit coquettish.

"In that case, Mr. Li should hurry up and go upstairs first."

Xie Shi'an smiled and said, "Don't really miss it, it would be such a pity."

Li Zhongjin gritted his teeth in anger, this woman really knows how to act in front of outsiders.

 When did he say that he wanted to take a picture of that necklace for her?

However, he couldn't explain it at the moment, so he could only agree with a dry smile: "Mr. Xie is right, I'll go over right now."

He glanced at Xu Meixi again meaningfully, "Don't bother Mrs. Xie for too long. She is pregnant. Come up as soon as you are done. I'll wait for you."

　　The tone of the words "I'm waiting for you" is specially emphasized.

 Xu Meixi still smiled: "Okay."

Sang Qianqian took Xu Meixi into the car. Naturally, there was no medicine in the car. What she said just now was just an excuse.

After the two of them sat down in the back seat, Sang Qianqian immediately locked the car door, turned her head, and looked at Xu Meixi solemnly. Xu Meixi was slightly startled, "You asked me to come."

"You can't stay with Li Zhongjin anymore. He just wanted to kill you."

Sang Qianqian witnessed that scene with his own eyes and felt that it was unusual. Strictly speaking, it was a crime and attempted murder. "If you want to call the police, I can testify for you."

Knowing that Sang Qianqian had seen something he shouldn't have seen, Xu Meixi calmed down and shook her head firmly: "No, I don't want to call the police."

“Is it possible that you still plan to stay with Li Zhongjin?”

Sang Qianqian said in a solemn tone, "If Shi An and I hadn't appeared just now, do you know what the consequences might have been?"

"I know."

Xu Meixi murmured, her fingers caressing her still painful neck. The horrible suffocation feeling still made her feel frightened at this moment.

Li Zhongjin has already had murderous intentions. She will die, she will really die.

“I knew you didn't call the police yet? What worries do you have?”

Sang Qianqian couldn't understand Xu Meixi's decision, and her mind changed slightly, "You said Li Zhongjin poisoned the old lady, what on earth is going on?"

Xu Meixi hesitated for a moment, and then said truthfully: "Back then, Li Zhongjin and Zhen Zhu were fighting fiercely, and Zhen Zhu was suppressed at every turn. Zhen Yiping was seriously ill, and the old lady couldn't stand it. She contacted some elderly people in the group privately and wanted to invite them to dinner."

On the surface it was an invitation to have a meal, but in reality it was of course asking them to help take care of Zhen Zhu.

These people are the elders of the group. They were promoted by the old man of the Zhen family. When Li Zhongjin and Zhen Zhu were fighting openly and secretly, they all remained neutral because they mistakenly thought it was a family matter of the Zhen family.

If the old lady intervenes, it will make the attitude of the Zhen family clear. There is no doubt that these people will spare no effort to support Zhen Zhu and stand opposite to Li Zhongjin.

“Of course Li Zhongjin didn't want to see this happen, but he couldn't stop the old lady, so he insisted on taking me to Zhen's house to meet the old lady a few days before the dinner.”

Xu Meixi said softly, "I have stewed soup for him and his mother several times before, and he liked it very much. He asked me to stew a portion for the old lady. I bought a lot of nourishing Chinese medicinal materials on my own initiative, saying that these are his I bought it after asking the doctor specifically, and he asked me to add it to the old lady's soup. It is good for the body. I told him clearly that some medicinal herbs are not suitable for everyone and have taboos, but he insisted fine."

  She was not told at all that the old lady had been taking a certain kind of medicine all year round, and that medicine was not only incompatible with a certain medicinal material, but could also cause poisoning symptoms.

Sang Qianqian suddenly understood: "So Li Zhongjin did it on purpose."

"It's funny. I still firmly believed that he would not attack his own grandmother. I thought he was also misled."

Xu Meixi said self-deprecatingly, "In the end, God was wise and allowed me to hear the conversation between him and his mother. He actually knew that the two medicines were in conflict with each other, but he deliberately made me cook it for the old lady. He made it clear that he wanted to treat me as a victim. First, you can take responsibility for the Li family, and secondly, you can get rid of me completely."

“I knew this man's character was not very good, but I didn't expect him to be so bad.”

Sang Qianqian was overwhelmed by Li Zhongjin's shamelessness, "Does Han Yu know the existence of that recording?"

Hearing her naturally calling the name "Han Yu", Xu Meixi glanced at her and said meaningfully: "I know, I didn't even tell the police, but he once came to see me alone, and I don't know why. Just tell him that he has also listened to that recording."

Facing Shen Hanyu, her heartbeat was beating like a drum. She had no room to respond. All her defenses collapsed in an instant.

 After all, he was the first man she liked and had a crush on for so long.

Sang Qianqian didn't think much about it. She had never doubted Shen Hanyu's ability.

What she was confused about was another question, "Since Han Yu knew that this matter was related to the Li family, how could he convince the old lady not to pursue it further?"

Even if time was too tight at the time, he would definitely inform Zhen Yiping of the true situation. When it came to the old lady's safety, the Zhen family would never tolerate it.
