Chapter 156: Chapter 156

"Are you done yet?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"Stop it!" Cheng Qingsu’s tone was muffled.

Zhang Xiaohao’s fingers were almost numb.

"Don’t shout!" said Cheng Qingsu.

Zhang Xiaohao glanced at the ceiling, feeling as if two crows flew over his head, "Are you still not done?"

Cheng Qingsu lifted her head, blinking her profound eyes, and said pitifully, "Brother-in-law, do you have to be so stingy?"

After speaking, Cheng Qingsu’s soft, jade-like hands pressed down on Zhang Xiaohao’s wrist, increasing the pressure.

Zhang Xiaohao was speechless, glanced at the ceiling again, and thought with annoyance, "Dealing with such an outstanding sister-in-law, there’s just no one else like her."

"This is blood, not water!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Really?" Cheng Qingsu’s eyes brightened.

Zhang Xiaohao took the opportunity and immediately withdrew his finger.

He shook his finger in pain, thinking about the blood that had been sucked for five minutes—how much he had lost and how much food it would take to recover!

"Nonsense! Could I ever deceive you, my dear brother-in-law? This place isn’t convenient, um, let’s find a quieter place when no one’s around!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Brother-in-law, you said so yourself, you can’t fool me!" Cheng Qingsu said.

When Cheng Qingsu initially sucked the first drop of Zhang Xiaohao’s blood, she really intended to take just one drop. But as the blood entered her body, her cultivation that had been stagnant at the Early Stage Foundation Establishment began to stir and inexplicably increased a bit.

So, with the mentality of not wasting an opportunity and nothing lost in trying, Cheng Qingsu sucked vigorously.

"How could I deceive anyone else but you? You’re my dear little cotton demon," Zhang Xiaohao said with a mischievous smile.

"The banquet has already started, what are you two busy with here?" John Sharo approached with a smile, holding a glass of red wine.

"Ha-ha, we were just about to delve deeper in our conversation, but you interrupted us," Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Ha-ha, Mr. Zhang jests," John Sharo smiled awkwardly.

He clapped his hands.

The waiter respectfully brought over a tray, on which lay two glasses of red wine.

"I’m really sorry about earlier! I didn’t know Qingsu already had a boyfriend, I wouldn’t have pursued her had I known! To show my apology, I’d like to toast to you both, please feel free, I’ll drink first as a sign of respect," John Sharo said.

He picked up the wine and downed it in one go.

Shaking the empty glass above the ground, he smiled and said, "I hope Mr. Zhang and Qingsu can forgive and forget."

Zhang Xiaohao and Cheng Qingsu exchanged glances and smiled at each other.

"Now that things have come to this, I’m not an unreasonable person! Since it’s just a misunderstanding, let’s just put it behind us," Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

He took the glass of red wine from the waiter and intentionally maneuvered it in front of John Sharo’s eyes.

Under his eager gaze, Zhang Xiaohao drank the wine in one go.

"Hmph! Yellow-skinned monkey, dare to have designs on this young master’s woman, later I’ll ensure you die in despair!" John Sharo sneered inwardly.

His face still smiling, "Brother Zhang is really straightforward, you wouldn’t refuse to give me this face, would you, Qingsu?"

At the same time, he coldly thought, "I offer you face and you don’t want it, soon after I’ve had my fun, you shall become part of the blood sacrifice."

"Hehe," Cheng Qingsu giggled, took the red wine, and drank it down in one gulp.

"Both of you are indeed decisive people. If there was anything unpleasant before, I hope you won’t take it to heart. The banquet has already started, why not go to the hall and dance a bit?" John Sharo said.

"Alright," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

With his arm wrapped around Cheng Qingsu’s slender waist, he walked towards the stage.

Watching the two leave, John Sharo sneered in his heart.

"Two little cunts, just you wait, the show is about to start soon, hehe..."

The lights changed, turning dim.

Elegant and long-standing music began to play on the stage.

Zhang Xiaohao held Cheng Qingsu by the willowy waist, his hands supporting her raised arms, and started to dance.

"Why did you agree to him just now?" Cheng Qingsu whispered.

"Do you think he’s a pig? If I hadn’t agreed, how could the script continue?" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"What should we do now?"

"Wait! According to my judgment, the mixed poison they’ve used should take effect in about half an hour," Zhang Xiaohao thought for a moment then said.

"Oh!" responded Cheng Qingsu.

Suddenly feeling pain, she thought of Zhang Xiaohao, her cheap brother-in-law, and anger surged inside her as she snapped, "What are you doing?"

"Heh," Zhang Xiaohao laughed.

"You bastard!" Cheng Qingsu said.

"It’s not my fault, who asked you to look exactly like your sister," Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.

"Giggle! Brother-in-law, don’t you want something more thrilling? Just tell me which Cultivation Technique you’re practicing, and I can satisfy you in every way!" Cheng Qingsu pushed further.

Zhang Xiaohao took a deep breath, "Stop messing around."

He thought annoyedly, "Seductress!"

"Brother-in-law, you’re scared," Cheng Qingsu’s body shook teasingly.

"I’m seriously warning you again, don’t try to provoke me!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

Cheng Qingsu clenched her teeth.

"Ow..." Zhang Xiaohao took in a sharp breath of air.

"Brother-in-law, if you give me the Cultivation Technique, I’ll be at your mercy!" Cheng Qingsu continued to seduce.

Just then, someone in the hall suddenly collapsed to the ground without warning.

At first, there was only one or two, but in less than a minute, more and more people fell to the ground.

"It’s happening! Watch your safety!" Zhang Xiaohao alerted.

He closed his eyes and, pretending to be struck by the poison, collapsed to the ground.

Cheng Qingsu cursed in her heart, damn bastard! Why does the poison have to take effect now, neither sooner nor later, just at this moment?

Thinking of the great sacrifice she had made, only to fall short of coaxing out this cheap brother-in-law’s Cultivation Method, she felt extremely annoyed. This update ıs available on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝙣𝙚𝙩

Fooling as the fools do.

Cheng Qingsu naturally fell to the ground, her body softening.
