Chapter 247 Sweet and Sour Wine
Chapter 247 Sweet and Sour Wine
One of the actions that Su Nuan took to cooperate with Mei Changli was that she and Mu Yunting only ate food prepared by Mei Runian.
Because external injuries can be prevented and treated, but if someone is poisoned, the consequences are difficult to predict.
Although Mei Changli secretly invited Liao Xinyi, who could guarantee that the poison was not so strong that they could wait until Liao Xinyi came to treat them?
While she was eating, she saw Yu Zhiqiu walking towards her with a wine glass in hand. Su Nuan immediately became alert. Although she didn't believe that this young lady would cause her any harm in public, it was always better to be cautious.
"Concubine Xia, I offer you a toast."
Su Nuan was delighted when she heard that she was going to be toasted. Yesterday, Mu Yunting refused the wine for her in public, and the reason was ready. So she looked at Yu Zhiqiu with a smile and said, "I should drink this glass of wine. After all, you are my closest friend in Xiaomian County. Unfortunately, my leg injury has not healed yet, so I am not suitable to drink."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiqiu smiled slyly, "Concubine Xia, you misunderstood. Your leg injury has not healed yet, so I know you shouldn't drink. But the wine I prepared for the ladies today is called wine, but it is made from honey and fruit, and has nothing to do with wine. It tastes sour and sweet, and it is specially prepared for Concubine Xia."
Having said that, if Su Nuan didn't drink, she would be giving her no face, so she gave Mei Runian a look, indicating that he should prepare some wine for her.
Mei Runian felt uncomfortable when she met Yu Zhiqiu, her ears turned red, and Su Nuan's eyes almost cramped, but he didn't even look at her.
Su Nuan had to cough lightly to attract his attention, and then asked him: "Mr. Mei, is the wine today really as good as Miss Yu said?"
"Ah?" Mei Runian seemed to have just woken up from a dream and quickly replied, "I'll get some wine for Concubine Xia right away."
After a moment, Mei Runian brought a wine jug to Su Nuan and poured her a glass.
Su Nuan raised the glass and took a sip. It was just as Yu Zhiqiu said, sour and sweet, like a glass of fruit juice, and had nothing to do with wine. The only difference was that in addition to the sweetness, the honey also had a light spicy taste. She was somewhat familiar with the taste, but she couldn't remember where she had tasted it before.
Thinking that the familiar smell would never be the smell of poison, Su Nuan didn't think much about it.
After drinking a glass of wine, Yu Zhiqiu returned to his seat and didn't speak to Su Nuan again, not even looking at her.
Su Nuan guessed that Lord Yu probably forced her to toast him with this glass of wine in order to build a relationship with him.
With Yu Zhiqiu setting an example in front, the ladies could no longer sit still and started looking for excuses to toast Su Nuan with wine.
The wine tasted good and was a perfect match with the barbecue. Su Nuan liked it very much, so she accepted all the offers and drank whatever was offered to her.
For a moment, the scene was very lively and harmonious.
Seeing that Su Nuan was drinking happily, Mu Yunting took over the job of pouring wine for her.
It's not that he likes to serve people, it's just that he can't stand the sight of Mei Runian standing beside his beloved concubine and serving her.
Especially the flirting between the two of them just now made people feel very uncomfortable.
The women toasted the Crown Prince's concubines, and the men naturally toasted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
All the men and women took action, but Prince Guang'an and his family sat still, showing no intention of moving at all.
In the midst of peace, there was a sudden cry of surprise.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a dark shadow moving towards them.
“It’s a bee!”
someone exclaimed.
"Hurry and protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
A group of guards were divided into two teams, one team surrounded Mu Yunting and Su Nuan in the middle, and the other team drove away the bees.
But bees are not so easy to drive away. They scatter one moment and gather together again the next.
The bees seemed to be driven by someone, flying all the way towards Su Nuan and Mu Yunting.
Su Nuan was so frightened that her face turned pale. If she was stung by them, she would be half dead if not dead.
She subconsciously wanted to get up and run away, but Mu Yunting picked her up first and ran towards the tent.
As long as you get into the tent before the bees, you'll be safe.
Su Nuan's tense heart relaxed for a moment, but the next moment a scene that made her despair appeared. She saw a large group of bees flying from the direction of the tent, and the buzzing sound hit Su Nuan's heart again and again.
It's over, it's over!
Su Nuan threw herself into Mu Yunting's arms, determined to die in the arms of the man she loved. However, she might not die. Mu Yunting was very good at kung fu, and she might be able to escape if he carried her and ran. The most important thing was that Mu Yunting still had Ye Yin. As long as he encountered danger, Ye Yin would definitely appear. Although Ye Yin had not been seen in the past few days, Su Nuan was sure that he would appear in a critical moment.
Thinking of this, she hid in Mu Yunting's arms with peace of mind, allowing him to run wildly with her in his arms.
The buzzing sound was getting closer and closer, and Su Nuan felt a stinging pain on the back of her hand, probably from being stung by a bee.
After the first time, there will be a second time and a third time.
Su Nuan wanted to hide her hands in Mu Yunting's arms, but she soon found that it was meaningless because there were more and more bees.
Suddenly I thought that Mu Yunting's face was still exposed. It would be a pity if such a handsome face was stung and disfigured beyond recognition.
Su Nuan gritted her teeth, stretched out a hand and groped to cover Mu Yunting's face. Since her hand was already like this, she might as well let it do its job.
"Your Highness, this way!"
Just as Su Nuan was crying out in pain from being stung, a clear voice was heard. She was very familiar with this voice. It was Liao Xinyi, who was respected as a miracle doctor by everyone in Xiaomian County.
Mu Yunting turned and ran towards the direction where Liao Xinyi's voice came from, and soon stopped.
Su Nuan smelled a choking odor, and at the same time the buzzing sound in her ears became smaller and smaller, as if there were fewer bees.
She plucked up the courage to look up and found that she and Mu Yunting were in a thick smoke. She suddenly realized that the bees were driven away by the smoke.
Su Nuan felt like she had escaped death and almost cried.
It was so painful. The back of my hands and neck were burning. I had no idea what was wrong with me after being stung.
"You can take your hands off now."
Mu Yunting's voice sounded faintly from above his head.
Su Nuan looked up and was surprised to find that there was only a red dot on Mu Yunting's face, which contrasted with her own hands which were red and swollen and completely unrecognizable. The result was quite striking.
"Luckily I covered it for you, otherwise your face would be ruined!"
Su Nuan said to Mu Yunting proudly.
The corner of Mu Yunting's mouth twitched, and he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
In fact, the bee was not going to sting him until the person in his arms put his hand on his face.
Mu Yunting thought that the sting on his face was just a mistake by the bee.
But how could he say such words? At such a dangerous moment, she was willing to protect her face with her hands, which showed that she cared about him.
Mu Yunting's eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at Su Nuan.
"There are no bees anymore, how about we stay away from this smoke?"
"No, the bees haven't gone far."
The one who answered Su Nuan was Liao Xinyi.
Su Nuan then realized that Liao Xinyi had been standing behind her.
