Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife-Chapter 2007 - 500: Xia Tian’s Plot (Part 3)

Watching the waiter place the steak on the dining table, Gu Yelin took out a few red banknotes from his wallet as a tip. The waiter beamed with joy and quickly bowed out of the room.

An Yiqing blinked her eyes as she sat on the sofa, watching Gu Yelin walk towards her. He bent down and reached out to pick up the little woman smiling at him, carrying her to the dining table.

An Yiqing did not resist and allowed Gu Yelin to carry her to the chair. She rested her chin on her hands, her eyes curved with a smile, looking gently at the man cutting the steak for her.

"What are your plans?" Gu Yelin asked as he cut the steak, spearing a small piece with a fork and bringing it to An Yiqing’s lips.

An Yiqing obediently opened her mouth and ate the beef, "I promised Grandpa Hua and Grandpa Pei to help them eliminate the cultivation base inside Xuanjin. Since there are clues now, I certainly can’t let it go. This time, I specifically brought Ah Feng and the others, along with your people, I think it should be enough to deal with those cultivators. It’s just... Tutian Xiaotailang said that the base in Tea Province has already cultivated higher-level Medicine Persons, whose strength is comparable to the Demigod Peak."

Gu Yelin finished cutting the steak and then wiped the soup from the corner of An Yiqing’s mouth. He fed her piece by piece, and An Yiqing ate slowly.

"Leave the Demigod Peak to me, you just assist me from the side," Gu Yelin said.

An Yiqing swallowed the food in her mouth and shook her head, "Let’s see when the time comes, I always feel that this matter won’t go smoothly. Yu Hai has already been exposed, I’m worried he will sabotage from the shadows."

However, soldiers will block the water and earth will cover. Even if Yu Hai does not appear, she will eventually bring down the Poison Medicine Sect!

In the evening, at the best club in City A, police officers and Hong Ci members gathered together.

An Yiqing changed into a loose white sweater and wore a pair of jeans. It was a very ordinary outfit, yet she wore it with stunning effect.

Gu Yelin was still dressed the same as during the day, in a black shirt and black trousers, with a black long trench coat over them. His handsome features were hidden in the understated black, his deep black eyes seemed to embrace all things in the world, his cold aura made people fear yet submit.

As soon as An Yiqing and Gu Yelin walked into the private room, they attracted everyone’s attention.

Especially Xia Tian, as soon as Gu Yelin appeared, her eyes were glued to him, desperately wanting to pounce on him.

Xia Jun noticed this and felt a chill in his heart, fiercely kicking Xia Tian under the table as a warning not to act rashly.

Xia Tian pouted in dissatisfaction, she really couldn’t understand why her father feared An Yiqing so much. Flowers don’t bloom for a hundred days, once Young Master Gu gets tired of that woman, what’s left for her to be arrogant about!

The ignorant Xia Tian still didn’t realize how fierce a woman An Yiqing was.

"General Gu, Miss An, please come and have a seat," Xia Jun, unaware of his daughter’s thoughts, stood up and warmly welcomed An Yiqing and Gu Yelin inside, seating them at the head of the table.

An Yiqing sat down and looked around. Those who came today were all people who had been working with Gu Yelin recently. She had already met most of them during the day.

The atmosphere in the room was a bit awkward, as Gu Yelin wasn’t talkative, nor was An Yiqing. Tan Yulin and others weren’t fond of interacting with outsiders either, leaving the people from the bureau glancing at each other and eventually looking at Xia Jun.

Xia Jun, who was usually adept at socializing, sat beside Gu Yelin, breaking into a cold sweat, suffocated by Gu Yelin’s pressure.

"Uhm... Miss An, it must have been tiring coming all the way here. How is Commander An doing recently?" Xia Jun broke the silence, smiling sheepishly.

Upon hearing this, Xia Tian rolled her eyes, glaring fiercely at An Yiqing.

An Yiqing pretended not to notice, nodded, and smiled faintly: "Grandpa is doing well."

"That’s good to hear," Xia Jun wiped the sweat from his forehead. An Yiqing’s presence was overwhelming; he always felt he was facing not a young girl in her twenties but an elder who held high authority. Xia Jun adjusted his emotions, "I’ve always heard about Miss An’s outstanding ability, and today I’m honored to dine with you. I’ve heard about the incident during the day, and I have spoiled my daughter since she was young. Please, Miss An, don’t be upset. Tian Tian, go and toast to Miss An and apologize properly."

Xia Tian was stunned, completely taken aback by her father’s request.

Apologize to An Yiqing?! Wouldn’t that be slapping her face in front of everyone?! How could she continue to work at the bureau after this?!

Xia Tian remained seated, not moving an inch, while An Yiqing smiled faintly and lowered her gaze, her thoughts indecipherable.

The sight of An Yiqing’s faint smile sent chills down Xia Jun’s spine, and he quickly kicked Xia Tian’s leg under the table with urgency.

Xia Tian winced in pain, glaring at Xia Jun, but her father’s eyes frightened her.

Having no choice, Xia Tian reluctantly stood up, dragging her feet as she walked over to An Yiqing’s side and poured her a glass of wine.

"Miss An, it was my fault today. I hope you can be magnanimous and not hold it against me." Xia Tian forced a smile, drained her glass, and glared venomously at An Yiqing.

Under everyone’s watchful gaze, An Yiqing chuckled softly but did not accept the glass of wine Xia Tian had poured.

"Since Director Xia has spoken, I must give face both sentimentally and logically. No need for the drink, I just hope Miss Xia will be more cautious with her words and actions in the future. After all, there’s only one chance."

Xia Tian had never been warned like this before and was instantly filled with rage, gripping her wine glass tightly, ready to explode.

"You——"

"Tian Tian, are you not going to sit down?!"

Xia Jun’s low voice carried a strong warning. Xia Tian bit her lip, glancing at her father. Finally, she stomped her foot and angrily returned to her seat.

An Yiqing! Don’t get cocky! This is City A, I’ll make sure you regret it!

The gathering continued, with Xia Tian leaving early, claiming to feel unwell. Without Xia Tian’s disruption, the police officers and Hong Ci members enjoyed themselves.

Meanwhile, An Yiqing and Gu Yelin appeared to be in a world of their own, with their heads leaning towards each other, making others’ eyes hurt.

As for Xia Tian, after storming out of the private room, she stomped towards the restroom in her high heels.

After rinsing her face, Xia Tian vented her frustration in the restroom, her face still full of anger as she walked out.

A man appeared before her eyes.

"Miss Xia, being looked down upon is quite unpleasant, isn’t it?"

Xia Tian halted and stared warily at the man in front of her, "Who are you?"

The man smiled slightly, his narrow eyes containing a trace of cunning and scheming.

"I’m from the Huang Family of Tea Province, Huang Jian."

Surprise crossed Xia Tian’s face as she scrutinized the man, dressed in a beige suit that was clearly high-quality. The man had a decent physique, his height acceptable, and although his looks were average, his attire made him appear rather presentable.

She had heard of Huang Jian, not just heard of him, but this man was supposedly a top young master in Tea Province. The Huang Family was the leading family of the Tea Province underworld, and Huang Jian was the eldest son of the family, the most eligible heir of the third generation.

Xia Tian never imagined that this legendary figure would stand before her.

"I wonder why Young Master Huang is looking for me?" Xia Tian adjusted her demeanor, revealing a gentle smile.

A hint of contempt flickered in Huang Jian’s eyes, but he maintained a warm smile, "I know a bit about what happened with Miss Xia today. I’ve encountered this An Yiqing several times in Xuandu City, and she is indeed overbearing and oppressive. General Gu marrying her is truly a grievance!" Huang Jian sighed in a seemingly regretful manner.

Huang Jian’s words struck a chord with Xia Tian, her eyes brightened, and she quickly asked, "Is what you say true?"
