Ps: I wish everyone a happy new year!
Sun Ruowei knew that Zhu Gaochen's identity was not simple. Under his seemingly cynical appearance, his behavior was unusually cautious.
Zhu Gaochen left his seat with a teacup in his hand and stood behind Sun Ruowei.
"You don't dare to drink?" he whispered into her ear. Was there really poison in the tea?”
"Who said it was poisonous!"
Sun Ruowei pretended to be calm and took the tea from Zhu Gaochen's hand as if nothing had happened.
However, she hesitated if she really wanted to drink it.
Indeed, the tea in her hand was poisoned.
Because Zhu Gaochen had revealed her background yesterday, he had to die.
"Why are your hands shaking?" Zhu Gaochen laughed softly, his tone revealing a sense of schadenfreude.
When he picked up the teapot and poured tea, he had already noticed the strange expression on Sun Ruowei's face.
Judging from the other party's actions, his guess was right.
"Why do you care? I'll drink it!”Sun Ruowei gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She directly brought the tea to her mouth.
Seeing this, Zhu Gaochen snatched the teacup and threw it on the ground.
Pa pa---
The teacup fell to the ground and shattered.
Downstairs.
Hearing the sound of the teacup shattering, everyone stood up in unison and picked up the swords hidden under the table.
For a moment, both sides were at daggers drawn.
This scene frightened the tavern manager and the waiter who was working. Looking at the lineup, they were about to fight!
On the second floor.
Sun Ruowei was stunned, but then she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She was stunned because she did not expect Zhu Gaochen to snatch the poisoned tea cup from her hand at the last moment.
The reason she laughed was that she had guessed that Zhu Gaochen would not let her die.
"Who exactly are you? Embroidered Uniform Guard?"
Sun Ruowei raised her head and stared coldly at Zhu Gaochen. The latter's expression was indifferent, and she could tell that something was wrong.
"You guessed right. I am the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Northern Town Governor, Thousand Households Gao Chen!”Zhu Gaochen nodded.
The other party treated him as a Jinyiwei, so Zhu Gaochen simply climbed up the ladder, erased his surname, and used the identity of Gao Chen to get close to her.
"So you're here to catch me today?”Sun Ruowei wasn't too surprised when she learned of Zhu Gaochen's identity.
She had long guessed that Zhu Gaochen was not a simple person. Only the Jinyiwei could accurately reveal her background.
What Sun Ruowei did not expect was that Zhu Gaochen would actually become an official!
Even ordinary Embroidered Uniform Guards could make many people tremble in fear.
There was no need to mention the Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
The assassination of Zhu Di had already caused many of his compatriots to be arrested and thrown into prison.
If he killed Zhu Gaochen now, things would get out of hand.
After thinking about it, Sun Ruowei could only endure it and see what Zhu Gaochen would do to her next.
Zhu Gaochen returned to his seat and asked the waiter to bring him a new pot of tea.
"If I wanted to catch you, why would I wait until now?”Zhu Gaochen smiled indifferently.
"Then what do you want?" Sun Ruowei questioned. She couldn't guess what Zhu Gaochen was planning.
He knew her background but did not arrest her or report her.
He had guessed that the tea was poisonous and had deliberately tricked her into drinking it, but he had stopped her at the last moment.
All these signs made Sun Ruowei unable to guess what Zhu Gaochen wanted to do or what his purpose was.
However, Sun Ruowei knew that Zhu Gaochen was a Jinyiwei, and they were not on the same side.
Thinking of this, Sun Ruowei said with a cold face,"If you're not here to catch me, can I leave now?”
"No." Zhu Gaochen shook his head.
"Since you're not going to arrest me, what do you want to do?”Sun Ruowei couldn't guess Zhu Gaochen's thoughts. She couldn't help but become impatient and lose her patience.
"Didn't I say it yesterday? Have some tea!" Zhu Gaochen replied casually.
"I still have things to do in my shop, so I don't have time to drink tea with you. If you want to drink, drink slowly!”Sun Ruowei rolled her eyes at Zhu Gaochen and stood up to leave.
The moment Sun Ruowei stood up, Zhu Gaochen raised his teacup and said,"
"If you don't drink tea with me, the Jinyiwei of the North Town Bureau will surround your grocery store. Your father and his accomplices will be arrested and thrown into the imperial prison.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Sun Ruowei immediately sat back down and stared angrily at Zhu Gaochen, who was sitting opposite her.
For some reason, Zhu Gaochen liked to see Sun Ruowei anxiously stomping her feet but unable to do anything to him.
If Sun Ruowei was a wild horse.
That Zhu Gaochen was the coachman who trained the horses!
Taming a wild horse could make the groom feel infinitely proud.
Similarly, taming Sun Ruowei would also give Zhu Gaochen an infinite sense of pride and satisfaction.
In the following days, under Zhu Gaochen's threat, Sun Ruowei accompanied him in the teahouse for the entire morning.
It was not until noon that Zhu Gaochen nodded and agreed to Sun Ruowei's departure.
Before he left, Zhu Gaochen did not forget to tell Sun Ruowei," See you tomorrow." The latter neither nodded nor refused.
