Chapter 157 Poisoning Chu Miao's Tea
Jiang Nan apologized so quickly that no one had time to react.
Wait, wasn't she just acting like she was the victim? Why is she suddenly apologizing?
The group of top students looked at each other in disbelief, thinking that Jiang Nan's mood changed faster than flipping through a book.
Chu Miao also looked at Jiang Nan, raised her eyebrows slightly, but did not say anything.
"I apologize for what I did before, and I hope you won't hold it against me." Jiang Nan took a deep breath and picked up the teapot on the table.
She poured herself and Chu Miao a cup of tea each.
However, when she poured the tea, she deliberately avoided the gazes of Chu Miao and the group of top students, turning her back to them.
Unseen by anyone, powder was sprinkled from her palm into Chu Miao's teacup.
The powder dissolved as soon as it was sprinkled in, and there was no sign of anything wrong.
Jiang Nan trembled slightly, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, she picked up the teacup and handed it to Chu Miao. She said, "Chu Miao, I'm using this tea to apologize to you. What happened today was indeed my fault. My jealousy was too strong, which led me to make a big mistake, almost making you look bad on stage, and almost ruining all my, Lu Miao's, efforts these past few days."
"Please drink this cup of tea. Although I know that a cup of tea cannot undo the harm I have done to you, and you will not forgive me because of it, I hope it can ease some of the estrangement between you."
"Yes, yes, you're all friends!" Jiang's mother hurriedly said, "Drink this cup of tea, and pretend nothing happened. You'll still be friends! Help each other out at school!"
"Miss Chu, you're so rich, don't hold it against us! If there's anything you can do to help Nannan in the future, please be sure to help her out!"
Jiang's mother's fawning smile was almost overflowing. She couldn't wait for Chu Miao to pave a bright future for Jiang Nan, so that Jiang Nan could live a carefree life and she could also enjoy the good life.
Chu Miao ignored Jiang's mother. She looked at the tea in Jiang Nan's hand, and then her gaze gradually moved from the tea to Jiang Nan's face.
Laughed.
That smile was breathtaking, and even a little dangerous.
"Jiang Nan, are you sure you want me to drink this tea?" she asked calmly.
“I’m pouring you tea to apologize! Haven’t you always wanted my apology? Now that I’m giving it to you, are you satisfied?” Jiang Nan replied confidently.
"No, it's not that I want your apology, it's that you did something wrong and you should apologize."
Chu Miao felt that her brain wasn't working properly, so she mercifully corrected her logical fallacy: "Besides, are you sure you're apologizing?"
She looked meaningfully at the tea in her hand.
"I personally poured you tea and spoke so sincerely, so of course I'm apologizing to you."
Chu Miao tilted her head. "I'll give you a chance. Think it over. Do you really want me to drink this cup of tea?"
Give her a chance...
The familiar words sent a chill down Jiang Nan's spine.
Chu Miao's words immediately reminded her of what had happened before.
Chu Miao said the same thing before.
She said she would give her a chance to think it over whether she wanted to apologize. She said that as long as she apologized, she would forgive and forget, and it would all be over.
However, she didn't take her words to heart and even mocked her. So, she presented the evidence to the teacher, which led to her being disciplined by the school.
Now it's like this again.
Jiang Nan felt a tightness in her chest, wondering if Chu Miao had already discovered something, but she also felt it was impossible.
Chu Miao couldn't possibly have discovered it.
"This is my apology tea, Chu Miaomiao. I've already apologized to you like this. If you don't drink it, it means you haven't forgiven me yet."
Chu Miao chuckled: "I never forgave you anyway."
Jiang Nan tightened her grip on the teacup.
She thought Chu Miao would definitely not drink this tea.
Chu Miao, however, simply picked up the teacup from her hand and drank it all in one gulp.
she……
Drink it all.
"Jiang Nan, I've drunk the tea. You no longer have a chance."
Lu Cheng and the other top students didn't understand what Chu Miao said, but Jiang Nan felt that she understood it, yet she wasn't sure.
However, Chu Miao had already drunk the tea.
Thinking about that person's methods, she felt a little excited.
"Mom, I've already apologized. Let's go," Jiang Nan said, helping her mother up.
Mrs. Jiang nodded repeatedly: "Alright, alright! Let's go! Then, Miss Chu, I'm entrusting my daughter's disciplinary matter to you! You're so magnanimous, I believe you won't hold it against her anymore, and you'll definitely be able to handle things at school properly!"
After saying that, Jiang's mother quickly ran away with Jiang Nan.
The group of top students watched this scene with expressions that were hard to describe.
They came from privileged backgrounds and were surrounded by refined gentlemen; this was the first time they had encountered such an unreasonable woman who kept resorting to moral blackmail.
"Chu, you'd better not be so kind."
They felt it was necessary to talk to Chu Miao about it.
“You saw Jiang Nan’s mother too. She has absolutely no bottom line. We’re worried that if you’re too easygoing, they’ll harass you.”
Chu Miao calmly took a bite of the rib without saying a word.
After dinner, all the top students went home.
"Chu, are you going home? How about we take you home?"
"You live in Langting Garden, right? It's on the same route. Why don't you have him take you home?"
The Lu family also owns a house in Langting Garden, but Old Master Lu is nostalgic and reluctant to leave the old house, so they all stay there and rarely return to Langting Garden.
"No need," Chu Miao shook her head. "Someone will come to pick me up later. You guys go back first."
"Then we'll wait with you!"
It was getting late, and they were really worried about leaving a young girl here.
Chu Miao told them to go back first and not to worry about her, as the people who were coming to pick her up were already on their way and would arrive soon.
They went back first, as they were in a hurry to visit Grandpa Lu, so they left early.
After watching them leave, Chu Miao didn't head towards the bustling main road. Instead, she casually turned and walked into a dark alley...
In the alley.
Chu Miao stopped when she reached the deeper part of the path.
It's far from the hustle and bustle here, very quiet, so quiet in the night that it can even be a little unsettling.
"Why hide? Come out!"
Chu Miao suddenly roared!
There was no movement.
Chu Miao sneered and shot out a silver needle, hitting a spot accurately. With a "whoosh," a man in black flew down.
The man clutched his arm, which had been chafed by the silver needles, his eyes beneath the mask fixed intently on Chu Miao.
"It's you again." Chu Miao wasn't surprised by the men's appearance; she had already detected their scent on Jiang Nan. "What, weren't you ready to die last time? Here you go again?"
The man roared, "I'm here to avenge my brother!"
"Your older brother? Who is he?"
