Helian Qingyu had already made out who the girl was. She was one of the most famed celebrities in Estan, Lan Ling’er.

“Lan Ling’er!” Helian Qingyu shouted her name as he helped her up.

“The General still remembers me?”

“Of course I do, you’re the prettiest girl in all of Estan.”

“Thank you for your compliments.”

Since Helian Qingyu was pressured into having a dance, he would rather do it with someone he already knew.

“I’ve heard that Miss Lan is very good at dancing, may I have a dance with you?” Helian Qingyu asked as he extended his arm.

“It would be my pleasure,” Lan Ling’er said as she rested her hand on his palm and they walked towards the dancefloor.

What no one had noticed was that when Lan Ling’er turned to head towards the dancefloor, she showed a brief cunning smile on her face.

“It’s none of your business,” Xu Xiyan scolded back, thinking that they had nothing to talk about.

Lan Ling’er did not expect Xu Xiyan to scold her and was angered by it, but she could not do anything about it.

Xu Xiyan had no intention of talking with Lan Ling’er and took two steps faster than her. She locked her arm with Huo Yunshen’s and walked side by side with him.

Lan Ling’er was left behind, but she could not lock her arm with Helian Qingyu’s like Xu Xiyan did with her partner. Being able to dance with him was already a miracle.

She was ditched as soon as the dance ended, but she followed Helian Qingyu anyway.

They stopped at a pavilion beside the lake, and Helian Qingyu proposed a toast to Huo Yunshen and Xu Xiyan.

Just as Xu Xiyan was about to drink her champagne, Huo Yunshen snatched it over and drank it, saying, “I’ll drink it for you.”

He wasn’t going to let her drink with him around.

He chucked her champagne down then his own.

Lan Ling’er smiled as she saw both of the men drinking the champagne.

No one knew that she had already bribed the servant who prepared the champagne to drug them.

As soon as the drug took its effect, there would be a chance for her to take action.
