Su Lingxue spoke sincerely, and if it hadn’t been for that previous al Xu Shaoqing hosted, even Huo Sining might have believed her apology was genuine.
This woman is truly adept at acting!
In front of so many people, even if Huo Sining didn’t like Su Lingxue, she couldn’t ignore her, so she forced a smile. However, to Huo Sining, her smile was filled with sarcasm.
Huo Sining had a strong alcohol tolerance; those close to her knew she could hold her liquor well. So when Su Lingxue offered a toast, it wasn’t a big deal. She nodded lightly, downed her drink in one go, placed the glass down, and cast a sidelong glance at Su Lingxue.
She was curious about what was inside this woman’s gourd!
At the gathering, Su Lingxue, for so reason, targeted Xie Yuxing, while so other actors took the opportunity to coax Huo Sining into drinking.
Xie Yuxing, having been in the entertainnt circle for a while, had no issues with alcohol and learned various sneaky drinking tactics over the years.
Needless to say, Huo Sining, with the Water-Repelling Pearl, had a tolerance so high that she could outdrink everyone present.
So neither Huo Sining nor Xie Yuxing was bothered by Su Lingxue’s difficulties.
However, Su Lingxue’s sudden enthusiasm made Huo Sining a bit suspicious.
Huo Sining knew well that the conflict between her and Su Lingxue couldn’t be resolved by Xu Shaoqing’s diation. There was no way Su Lingxue could co to terms within just two days.
Since that was the case, Su Lingxue’s sudden hospitality towards her and Xie Yuxing must have ulterior motives.
What exactly does this woman want to do?
Huo Sining frowned, unable to resist glancing up at Xie Yuxing.
Seemingly noticing sothing amiss too, Xie Yuxing gave Huo Sining a slight nod.
Over ti, Xie Yuxing had developed so rapport with Huo Sining, and upon seeing Huo Sining smirk, she paused and quickly understood.
Soon, the two were happily drinking together, and the actors, seeing their enthusiasm, were instantly excited.
With Su Lingxue and Luo Shaoqun fanning the flas, the atmosphere grew livelier, and the newbies lost track of how much they drank.
Observing Huo Sining and Xie Yuxing in a drunken stupor, slurring their words,
Su Lingxue secretly rejoiced, knowing her plan was about to succeed. She eagerly signaled Huang Jingwen.
Huang Jingwen nodded slightly, promptly leaving the table quietly while everyone was distracted.
Su Lingxue glanced subtly at Luo Shaoqun, who, unsurprisingly, was about to make a move.
Having drunk quite a bit, Luo Shaoqun, normally pretending to be genteel, began behaving indecently.
Seeing the hazy-eyed Huo Sining, Luo Shaoqun’s eyes filled with desire, and his body instinctively edged closer, his hand gradually reaching toward Huo Sining, growing more unrestrained.
Huo Sining, slightly intoxicated with blurred awareness, sluggishly noticed Luo Shaoqun approaching and instinctively dodged those predatory hands, seeking refuge with Xie Yuxing.
Xie Yuxing quickly sensed sothing amiss. Looking down, she saw a man’s hand on Huo Sining’s knee, with intentions of going further.
Seeing this, Xie Yuxing’s anger surged, and she silently reached for that lascivious hand with lightning speed.
Unexpectedly, Huo Sining intervened midway, taking advantage of her intoxication, she leaned on Xie Yuxing’s shoulder to evade Luo Shaoqun’s harassnt, whispering softly:
"Don’t rush; there are so many people here. It’d be hard to handle if things got out of hand. Hold off for now and see what Luo Shaoqun and Su Lingxue are really up to. Once we understand their goal, we can handle it better."
Xie Yuxing took a deep breath, internally mocking herself.
Despite nearly being thirty years old, she couldn’t maintain composure in this situation, not as calm as this young woman.
Since they were acting, she decided to play along. Seeing Huo Sining "intoxicated," Xie Yuxing stuttered in a drunken manner:
"Ningning... are... are you alright?"
Huo Sining happily complied:
"I’m... I’m fine! Drinking is fun! Haha... Sister Xing, I need to hit the restroom. We can continue... continue drinking when I get back!"
After saying this, she staggered to her feet and headed toward the exit. Seeing this, Xie Yuxing beca anxious and made as if to stand, but was stopped by Su Lingxue:
"Sister Xing, I happen to need the restroom too. I’ll go with her. You keep drinking with the others!"
With many people drunk, so actors took the opportunity to indulge, drinking heavily before helping each other back to the hotel.
Few remained sober; Su Lingxue was one of the few. Seeing Huo Sining head for the restroom, she quickly stood to assist.
Seeing Su Lingxue supporting Huo Sining, Xie Yuxing seed unaware of any danger or irregularity and simply waved a hand dismissively:
"Just hurry back!"
With that, she turned back to her drink; however, after just two cups, she was slumped over the table, unconscious.
Escorting Huo Sining out the door, Su Lingxue’s smiling face imdiately turned dark, withdrawing her supportive hand.
Without support, Huo Sining swayed, barely stepping away before slumping against the wall, vomiting uncontrollably.
"Damn it! It splashed on !"
Su Lingxue cursed angrily, hurriedly pulling tissues from her bag to clean the ss on her shoes, before turning back.
At this point, Huo Sining had already slid down the wall, drunkenly collapsing to the ground.
Seeing this, Huo Sining smirked coldly, kicking Huo Sining a few tis, scolding:
"Drunk like a dead pig. Hmph, I thought you could hold your liquor, but it’s just natural!"
Just then, Huang Jingwen entered from outside. Seeing Huo Sining slumped on the floor, her eyes flickered.
"How did it go?" Su Lingxue asked urgently.
"It’s done. We’re just waiting to take her over. Is she drunk? What about the one inside?"
Huang Jingwen glanced at Huo Sining, ensuring she was inebriated before asking.
Su Lingxue smugly raised her chin: "This minor matter couldn’t escape ? The one inside had even more to drink; she’s probably just about drunk too."
"Are you really going to do this? If Huo Sining finds out it was you, won’t she cause us trouble?" Huang Jingwen expressed concern.
