When she spent a great deal of money upon purchasing the pill, she expected that it could help her on some important occasion. She had not intended to ever use it, but now, she was going to use it, not long after the husband passed away.
The whole thing should be her fault. She should not have allowed Anxi to make a bet upon their liquor industry. It should not have been something to bet on. Due to their arrogance, they thought that they were definitely going to win. Now, she ended up having to kill her own men.
The Elder Princess looked pale. She calmed herself down with tightly clenched hands. Then she passed the pill to County Princess Anxi. “Give this to Qin Mingjie and make sure he eats it. Just tell him that it helps him to drive away the drunkness.” Then she sighed. “Anxi, you should not behave so arrogantly from this day on, Stay at the mansion and don’t make another bet on Restaurant Jixian.”
County Princess Anxi pursed her lips, looking indifferent. She had not expected that this b***h Gu Chaoyan could be so good at drinking that she was almost a match against Qin Mingjie! That was definitely her luck! She was definitely going to take revenge someday!
She assumed that her mother was angry because they lost the bet, but after a long while, her mother would get appeased and all would be well.
As County Princess Anxi was thinking inwardly, she started to talk like an obedient girl. “Yes, mother, it is my fault! When all is settled, I will stay at the mansion and visit Empress Dowager at the palace. I will never make such a mistake again.”
The Elder Princess nodded and was slightly assured. Anxi was a very arrogant and spoiled kid. After all, she was noble and she could be wild. It would be great if she knew how to make compensation.
She was going to arrange a marriage for Anxi when the incident was settled. Anxi was not young any more, and she should get married at a proper age. The Elder Princess was not as powerful as before, and Anxi should not continue to make the same mistakes again and again.
She waved her hands and said, “Just go.”
Anxi nodded and left with a cheerful look on her face. She did not notice that the Elder Princess had a very weird expression.
As she came to the first floor of Restaurant Jixian, Gu Chaoyan and Qin Mingjie had reached the 13th jar. Qin Mingjie had become totally red and looked anxious.
He had once finished more than 20 jars in his prime. Now due to the continuous contests that lasted for two days, he was lagging behind. Now he could reach as much as 17 jars at most, but this girl in front of him did not seem to be drunk at all. She looked very calm. He knew that even if he finished the 17th jar, he would not beat this girl at all.
However, if he lost, Restaurant Jixian would no longer be able to sell any liquor! That should never happen!!
As he thought about this, he insisted on drinking several more jars, even if it was dangerous.
County Princess Anxi came to Qin Mingjie and suggested that he should take a pause. She passed the pills to Qin Mingjie. “Mom says that it helps you to reduce the drunkness. Take it, you will feel better,” County Princess Anxi said to Qin Mingjie politely. After all, what she needed to get from him was that he had to drink on and on.
That was the pill given by his master, so Qin Mingjie had no doubt about it. He took it and was about to eat it…
“Hang on.” Gu Chaoyan stopped him directly at the sight of the pill, as she was holding the jar.
