"Jie, I realized you're pretty incredible." As soon as Xia Chengzong left, Zhao Xiaogui complimented his cousin, "That scoundrel Xia Chengzong... Ouch!"
His head was hit yet again.
"...Why can you say it and I can't... I won't say it anymore!" Seeing Xia Chuyi about to hit him again, Zhao Xiaogui hurriedly scampered off.
After running for a while, he crept back and asked her, "Jie, are you really letting Xia Chengzong go just like that, not worried he'll welsh on the deal?"
Although he couldn't understand why his cousin initially said she wouldn't take any money, yet ended up asking for it.
Xia Chuyi just smiled lightly, "Don't worry, he'll come back."
"Ha? Jie, are you so sure?" Zhao Xiaogui didn't understand.
"Hehe." With a mysterious smile, she said, "I added a little something to the wine."
Xia Chuyi remained composed.
"Jie!!" Zhao Xiaogui exclaimed, "You poisoned him?"
She glanced at her cousin, and said nothing.
