Gu Qingchen chuckled as she downed the wine in one gulp. Then, she looked at Rong Cheng, who was still holding the cup in his hand.
Rong Yu sat there and raised his head slightly. He said unhurriedly, “Rong Cheng, you come to toast Doctor Gu for an apology. Doctor Gu has already downed the wine happily, but you’re still not drinking. It seems that you lack some sincerity.”
A few elders looked at Rong Cheng. Seeing that he was still holding the glass and not drinking a single mouthful, Rong Qingtian’s face darkened.
“Cheng’er, what are you waiting for?”
Rong Cheng was unable to express his struggle. Could it be that he was going to say that this glass of wine had a “Elysium” in it?
No, he couldn’t drink it. What should he do?
He could just say that there were bugs in the wine and exchange it for another glass.
“Hehe, Rong Cheng, you’re still not willing to drink this glass of wine. Could it be that there’s something wrong with this glass of wine?”
Rong Cheng was just about to find an excuse to exchange for another glass of wine, but Rong Yu beat him to it. Rong Qingtian’s expression darkened even more as he looked at Rong Cheng. “There’s really something wrong with this wine, right?”
It looked like a question, but there was a hint of warning in his tone. Rong Cheng pursed his lips and glared angrily at Rong Yu, who had a smile on his face. If Rong Yu hadn’t suddenly interrupted him, he could have found an excuse to exchange for another glass of wine. Now, he really could not change the wine.
If he really changed the wine, Rong Qingtian would definitely suspect that he had really added something to the wine.
“Hehe, how could that be? I just drank a little too much just now. I want to apologize to Doctor Gu, so I will definitely drink it. Big Brother, you must be joking. I am your younger brother. How could I do something like adding stuff into the wine?”
After saying that, he gulped down the wine with the added ingredients.
After swallowing the last mouthful of wine, he heard Rong Yu say with a faint smile, “Adding stuff into the wine? Rong Cheng, you are thinking too much. I just saw a bug fly in just now to remind you. Your imagination is really rich.”
Rong Cheng was instantly stunned. His entire face was a little twisted and then turned ashen. He almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
Rong Yu just sat there indifferently. That kind of indifferent attitude made Rong Cheng want to strangle him to death. However, he had already drunk the wine, so he could not spit it out. He could only admit defeat.
Fortunately, Fang Yi said that this wine contained the “Elysium”. He had used it before. As long as he left the banquet in time and went back to his room to rest, there should not be any big trouble.
“I’m tired, Doctor Gu. Let’s go back.”
Rong Yu did not plan to stay here any longer. He had to attend his father’s birthday banquet no matter what, but it did not mean that he had to stay until the end.
Although Rong Qingtian really wanted Rong Yu to stay, he could not force him when he thought of Rong Yu’s condition. He could only watch Rong Yu leave.
Gu Qingchen took off the gloves on her hands and stuffed them into Rong Cheng’s hands. She smiled and said, “I’ll have to trouble Third Young Master Rong to throw these gloves away.”
After saying that, Gu Qingchen walked behind Rong Yu with bare hands. She pushed Rong Yu’s wheelchair and prepared to leave.
“Oh, that’s right.” Rong Yu suddenly said. He did not turn around. Instead, he sat straight with his back facing Rong Cheng and the others. “I, Rong Yu, don’t have a younger brother. Doctor Gu, Let’s go.”
Gu Qingchen nodded slightly at Rong Qingtian and Chen Yu. Then, under everyone’s watchful eyes, she pushed Rong Yu away.
After Gu Qingchen and Rong Yu left, the onlookers heaved a sigh of relief and began to discuss among themselves.
“Gosh! Fortunately, I didn’t cause trouble for that girl before. Who knows that she has the black card of the Rong Group!”
“It’s also the first time I’ve heard that the Rong Group has a black card. Compared to a black card, a gold card is nothing!”
“Do you think the Rong family can watch such an important black card in the hands of an outsider?”
“It’s probably not going to be easy. Although this black card won’t affect the Rong Group, and she won’t get any shares of the company, the authority of the black card is too great. If I were a member of the Rong Group, I wouldn’t be willing to let this black card that represents the supreme glory fall into the hands of others. However, do you guys see any tricks? It seems that Young Master Rong treats this Doctor Gu very differently!”
“I can see that too. Isn’t Young Master Rong a serious germaphobe? I’ve never heard of Young Master Rong having a woman by his side. In my opinion, this young Doctor Gu must have superb medical skills. In order for Young Master Rong to be cured by her, he must be able to overcome his germaphobe!”
“That makes sense! We must investigate Doctor Gu. If she really is a peerless doctor, we must find an opportunity to build a good relationship with her. A good doctor is too difficult to find.”
On the way back, Gu Qingchen was sitting in the back seat of the car, sitting side by side with Rong Yu. She did not know that the topic of the banquet was all about her.
Gu Qingchen instantly became the focus of everyone’s attention and entered their line of sight.
“Did you really see a bug fly in that glass?”
Gu Qingchen asked tentatively. She had accidentally read in Fang Yi’s mind and knew that she had added a drug into the wine, but Rong Yu should not have seen it.
Or did Rong Yu read it from Rong Cheng?
Rong Yu turned his head. His eyes were exceptionally bright in the dark. He opened his red lips slightly and said, “Are you really not a good drinker?”
The two of them looked at each other for a long time with a sense of probing and speculation. For a moment, it was as if Mars had collided with Earth, sparks flew in all directions, and the passion was boundless!
After a long while, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, no longer dwelling on the other’s question. Obviously, both of them knew that Rong Cheng had tampered with the glass of wine. As for how they knew, the two of them reached a very good understanding and did not ask.
“Is the air-conditioner off? It seems a little hot.”
When they were driving halfway through, Gu Qingchen felt that the car was a little stuffy.
“Doctor Gu, the air-conditioner is on in the car. It’s quite cool. I’ll turn the air-conditioner up a little more.”
The driver was not old, but he was very steady. However, when Gu Qingchen said that it was hot, he turned the air-conditioner up a little more.
Rong Yu frowned slightly and looked at Gu Qingchen with a hint of doubt in his eyes. “Doctor Gu, are you feeling unwell?”
During the day, Gu Qingchen had caught a cold. After using the medicine that he gave her, she was already fine. However, turning the air conditioner up did not do much good to Gu Qingchen.
Gu Qingchen was also a little puzzled. It was not because she was afraid of the heat, nor did she drink much alcohol. The weather was not hot now, so logically speaking, she should not be like this.
“It’s just a little hot. Could it be that my heart is burning? Or have I not recovered from my cold?”
Gu Qingchen had no choice but to check the pulse of her left hand with her right hand. It was supposed to be a simple matter to check the pulse, but for some reason, she was a little distracted. Her heart was not calm, and her pulse would also a little messy. No wonder it was often said that doctors did not treat themselves. It would indeed affect her judgment.
After a while, Gu Qingchen’s forehead started to sweat.
“There’s something wrong with the wine.”
“There’s something wrong with the wine.”
Both of them blurted out at the same time. It seemed that it was definitely the wine.
