Chapter 70 Da Bao and Xiao Bao Go Crazy at the Banquet
"Jiang Yu, don't rush off. Miss Xu needs to talk to you." Wu Nana stood next to Xu Peipei, a malicious smile on her face.
Seeing that they had come prepared, Jiang Yu raised her eyes and calmly looked at them. "What is it?"
Seeing that Jiang Yu had taken the bait, Xu Peipei and Wu Nana exchanged a knowing smile, their intentions clearly malicious.
Hsu Pei-pei maintained her arrogant demeanor and spoke as if bestowing a favor.
"We've had a lot of unpleasantness in the past, but I'm a magnanimous person and can overlook it. How about we let bygones be bygones if you drink this glass of wine?"
At Xu Peipei's prompting, Wu Nana brought over a glass of champagne and handed it to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu glanced at their expressions, then reached for the champagne. "Of course... it's not that great."
She grabbed Wu Nana's hand and, taking advantage of her inattention, poured the heavily spiked champagne into her mouth.
"Cough cough cough..." Wu Nana, caught off guard and completely unprepared, took a few sips.
"Jiang Yu, what are you doing? Stop it!" Xu Peipei exclaimed.
Jiang Yu turned to look at her, "What, you want to try some too?"
Xu Peipei was so frightened that she took two steps back and shook her head repeatedly.
Jiang Yu scoffed and smashed the wine glass as Wu Nana struggled.
"Jiang Yu, are you crazy? Do you know there's something in this wine...?" Wu Nana's angry roar stopped abruptly as she was startled by the look in Jiang Yu's eyes.
"What is it?" Jiang Yu's dark eyes were unfathomable, as if they could see through the hearts of people. "Why are you stopping talking?"
Wu Nana opened her mouth but couldn't say anything, and her breathing gradually became rapid.
She looked at Xu Peipei as if pleading for help.
Xu Peipei's face was extremely ugly, and she quietly gestured for her to leave first.
How could Jiang Yu possibly let her leave?
"Is Miss Wu drunk? We can't let anything happen to our guests at a banquet hosted by the Jiang family. Someone, take Miss Wu away and let her sober up properly," Jiang Yu said calmly.
Look at her, the Empress is still too dignified.
Watching helplessly as her people were taken away, Xu Peipei, who had failed in her attempt to steal a chicken, felt her hatred for Jiang Yu intensify.
"Jiang Yu, one day I will trample you under my feet." Xu Peipei clenched her fists and glared at her through gritted teeth.
Jiang Yu had already turned to leave, but upon hearing this, she stopped and turned around leisurely, tripping Xu Peipei and causing her to fall awkwardly to the ground. Her beautiful crystal shoes then stepped on Xu Peipei.
He looked down at her with the disdain of an emperor, and spoke coldly, "Is that so?"
Xu Peipei lay sprawled on the ground in a disheveled state. When she tried to get up, Jiang Yu's foot landed on her shoulder like a boulder. Feeling the strange gazes coming from all directions, she let out a sharp scream, deeply humiliated.
"Jiang Yu!!! I'm here today representing the Xu family. We will not let you get away with this!!!!"
"You dare offend the Xu family? You're courting death!"
"What's wrong? What happened to Xiaobao? Is he hurt?" Hearing the commotion, Jiang's mother rushed over and carefully examined Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu silently withdrew her foot from Xu Peipei's shoulder and shook her head at her mother.
"I'm the one who's in trouble, okay?" Xu Peipei said, lying on the ground in a disheveled state, her defenses broken.
Only then did Jiang's mother notice that there was someone on the ground. She asked with concern, "Oh my god, Miss Xu, why are you sleeping on the ground? Although young people like to fall asleep as soon as they lie down, the ground is cold. Please get up first."
It has to be said that sometimes sincerity can be incredibly hurtful.
"What do you mean I'm sleeping on the floor? She was the one who stepped on me..." Xu Peipei pointed at Jiang Yu with a ferocious expression, wanting to complain, but when she turned her head, she found that the other party's foot had been withdrawn at some point.
There wasn't a single mark on her shoulder, and Xu Peipei felt like she'd been tricked, leaving her angry but with nowhere to vent her frustration.
Jiang Yu remained expressionless throughout.
Jiang's mother looked at Xu Peipei, then at the well-behaved Xiaobao, and smiled gently, "Thank you for your concern, Miss Xu. Xiaobao said she's not hurt."
Xu Peipei looked at the smiling Jiang's mother in disbelief, letting out an absurd sneer.
She got up from the ground, pointed at Jiang Yu, and said, "She tripped me and then stepped on me. If you don't give me an explanation for what happened today, then there's no need for the Jiang family and the Xu family to continue their cooperation."
"Is there some misunderstanding? Our little Bao is very well-behaved," Jiang's mother said in surprise.
"Sister-in-law, I told you she was a jinx, not to be allowed to live. See what trouble she's caused? This is the eldest daughter of the Xu family. How many people who offend the Xu family have a good ending?"
"I advise you to hurry up and make her kneel down and apologize to Miss Xu. Maybe you can still salvage the situation." Madam Jiang, who had returned after tidying herself up, couldn't help but chime in with sarcastic remarks.
"But, but..." Jiang's mother was anxious and troubled.
How could her kind and gentle little baby possibly cause trouble? There must be some misunderstanding.
Xu Peipei once again revealed a smug expression, looking at Jiang Yu with extreme arrogance and sneering.
Jiang Yu turned to look at the gloating Madam Jiang, "You seem to really enjoy kneeling."
Madam Jiang felt a chill run down her neck from her gaze. Before she could figure out what was happening, her knee was suddenly struck by something, and she knelt down in shock.
Madam Jiang, kneeling on both knees, cried out in pain and looked up to see Jiang Yu's cold eyes.
"Since you like it, then kneel down." Jiang Yu glanced at her, her tone indifferent and aloof.
Jiang Xuyao rushed to help the First Madam, but the First Madam's legs were in so much pain that she couldn't stand up at all. She could only stand up with difficulty with her legs trembling uncontrollably.
"It's you, it's you, isn't it?" the First Madam shouted, pointing at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu stared at the First Madam's fingers, her dark eyes unfathomable and a hint of malice flashing across them. Just as she was about to bend the other woman's fingers, Jiang Mingyue suddenly grabbed her hand and stepped forward.
"Jiang Yu is so far away from you and you didn't even bump into her, how come it's her?" Jiang Mingyue protected Jiang Yu behind her like a mother protecting her own.
"You tripped and fell because you weren't standing properly, and now you're trying to slander my sister? Be careful, I'll sue you for defamation."
"You, you all..." The First Madam trembled with anger.
Jiang Mingyue ignored her and turned to Xu Peipei with a strong and firm attitude, "Ms. Xu, if you insist that Jiang Yu tripped you, we can check the surveillance footage to clear your name."
"Monitoring?" Hsu Pei-pei was taken aback.
"Yes, to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, we installed surveillance cameras in every corner of the banquet hall beforehand. If you want to know the truth, you can find out with a simple investigation."
"Miss Xu, do you dare to investigate?"
She said "you dare," not "you want."
Jiang Mingyue stared into Xu Peipei's eyes as if judging a criminal.
Are there surveillance cameras everywhere? Does that mean they recorded the act of drugging them?
Xu Peipei panicked. No, she couldn't look at the surveillance footage.
Xu Peipei gritted her teeth, her face ashen, and said reluctantly, "No need, I must have fallen accidentally."
"I see. Miss Xu, please be careful when you walk in the future, so you don't fall and try to scam someone again," Jiang Mingyue said coldly, then paused and added.
"By the way, Miss Xu may not know this, but the Jiang family and the Xu family ended their cooperation yesterday."
Therefore, your threats do not threaten us.
