Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland
Chapter 1297 - 1298: Drugged

Chapter 1297: Chapter 1298: Drugged

Although the two of them were somewhat awkward in their interactions, they still worked well together professionally.

As for Brother Xiaowei, he didn’t go to confess his love to Zheng Mingwen anymore.

He devoted himself entirely to work.

He even went abroad and won several awards.

Chen Yi saw the other party drinking the wine, a hint of triumph flickering in her downcast eyes.

It’s been over half a year, and she still hadn’t succeeded with him.

The Chen Family was now putting on a brave front, having to find a marriage alliance due to their father’s failed investment.

Since she returned to the country, she had set her heart on Yun Mingrui, hoping to become his wife.

Previously, she wanted to start with his pair of twin younger siblings, but that didn’t seem to work at all.

She also considered approaching Madame Yun and Chairman Yun, but they were not in Kyoto and had gone abroad instead.

They had returned before the new year, but she never got the chance to meet them, and when she wanted to, they’d gone abroad again.

It was well-known that Madame Yun and Chairman Yun had left the Yun Family business in Yun Mingrui’s hands. Now, the Yun Family’s decisions were all up to Yun Mingrui alone.

Once she was with Yun Mingrui, she was certain that she could convince him to invest in the Chen Family.

Yun Mingrui had been on guard throughout the banquet, but while conversing with guests, he realized something was wrong with his body.

He knew he had been drugged.

He was aware that his regular physical training made him more enduring than most.

Moreover, nurtured by spring water since in the womb, eating many space-born products, and regularly drinking spring water had improved his health greatly, rarely getting sick.

Otherwise, the drug’s effects in his body would have manifested much earlier.

"Sir, are you alright?" a male waiter approached Yun Mingrui and asked with concern.

Yun Mingrui clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, the pain snapping him back to his senses.

"I’m fine."

Yun Mingrui’s body trembled, and had it not been for his strong willpower, he would’ve succumbed to the effects of the drug by now.

As the banquet neared its end, those with matters to tend to had already taken their leave early.

Thus Wu Qian, no longer busy, focused her attention on Yun Mingrui, greedily watching him from a corner.

She knew that such opportunities were rare.

For she wasn’t sure if she could still look at him like this next time.

Perhaps, before long, a girl well-matched to him would stand by his side.

Like that girl earlier, how compatible were they?

From a distance, she noticed something off about him; his face bore an expression of endurance, and there was sweat on his forehead.

The banquet hall was vast, but with the central air conditioning on, it shouldn’t feel hot. Why was he sweating?

Wu Qian grew increasingly uneasy.

Something must have happened.

With this thought, she immediately sprang into action.

Following Yun Mingrui out of the banquet hall, waves of hot wind blew outside.

"President Yun, are you okay?"

Yun Mingrui bit his lower lip, the sharp pain from his nerves sobering him up a lot.

"I’m fine."

Wu Qian smelled a strong scent of blood.

"President Yun, are you injured?" Wu Qian didn’t think any further, assuming he was injured, hence her question.

Yun Mingrui smelled a fragrant scent, and that particular aroma made him resist even harder; because of the effort, beads of sweat rolled down his heated forehead.

"President Yun..." Wu Qian saw him stopping, and thinking he was suffering from stomach trouble, she went to support him.

Yun Mingrui, suppressing the last trace of his consciousness, said, "Car, up ahead." He took out the keys and gave them to her, having used up the last bit of his energy.
