Her heels dug into the ground, but she cou...Jiang Mu glared at Xiang Wan, her disgust palpable. "She turned Qing Ran into this, and you still let her attend my birthday party It's a favor to even allow her near me. How can you keep her by your side Aren't you afraid she'll slip something in your champagne when you aren't looking" These words were sharp and cutting, but the few present didn't find them too out of line. 。If it were them, even if Hoshino managed to seriously injure their perfect daughter, they wouldn't spare her any mercy!Jingyun lowered her head, feeling even more embarrassed and awkward. 。She cleared her throat, wanting to speak up for her daughter, but couldn't find the words. 。Zhao Yu smiled and said nonchalantly, "I caught a slight cold these past few days, but I don't feel like taking medicine. I find it too bitter." 。Wanwan is always considerate. She might have put some cold medicine in my drink. 。"Having said that, she turned her head to look at Xiang Wan, "Champagne and some cold medicines can't be mixed, you have to be careful, or if something happens to me, someone will say you did it on purpose again.

If I stay here any longer, I'm afraid she'll have a knot in her heart." 。It was Zhao Yu who finally spoke. 。Hearing this, Jiang's mother's face looked a little better.
