Chapter 164 Unsolicited Attentiveness, But a Hidden agenda
At the very least, he'll be a very, very rich boss, just like in his previous life.
I definitely have to win over someone like that, no matter what method I use.
Huang Yingying was already anxious, and then Song Zhaodi kept saying these things in front of her.
Isn't this just making me more anxious and agitated?
"Hey, I meant well. If you think what I said is wrong, then I won't say anything more."
"Since we're not working today anyway, why don't I make you all something nice to eat?" Huang Yingying said with a smile, getting up to prepare something delicious for everyone to enjoy together.
"No need, just cook whatever you like to eat," Su Niannian refused.
Huang Yingying's attempt to curry favor at this time was definitely not for anything good.
The so-called delicious food she made—who knows what ingredients she added? Su Niannian wouldn't eat her food.
"You're getting married tomorrow, this is just a small token of my appreciation. You two wait here, I'll cook something for you soon." Huang Yingying's smile remained unchanged as she cheerfully left the room.
After Huang Yingying went to the kitchen, Song Zhaodi told Su Niannian why she had come back.
Su Niannian felt a warmth in her heart as she listened to Song Zhaodi's words.
Gu Nan was still worried about himself, fearing that something might happen to him, so he asked Song Zhaodi to come back and keep him company.
"Huang Yingying said she was going to make us something delicious. Could she be putting something bad in the food?"
"Niannian, you can't eat her food," Song Zhaodi said to Su Niannian as she sat down next to her.
Su Niannian nodded.
Song Zhaodi stood up again, took out the steamed buns she had brought from Gu Nan's house, and asked Su Niannian if she was hungry and wanted to eat.
Su Niannian had only drunk a cup of malted milk powder in the morning and hadn't eaten much else, so she was actually quite hungry.
"Then eat something. You probably didn't eat much this morning, did you?" Su Niannian asked Song Zhaodi.
Song Zhaodi nodded.
The two of them each took a meat bun and started eating.
The steamed buns were still warm because Gu's mother had eaten them this morning, and since the temperature wasn't low, they were still warm.
The two of them chatted for a while while eating.
After they finished eating, Song Zhaodi helped Su Niannian pack up her things.
Actually, there wasn't much to take; Su Niannian only had two large bags of things.
Furthermore, some mattresses, blankets, washbasins, soap, and other items will still be needed today, so they cannot be put away for the time being.
As for the clothes Su Niannian will wear tomorrow, they will be delivered by Gu's mother tonight.
A short while later, Huang Yingying brought in the food she had prepared.
It turned out to be eight-treasure porridge, which shows that Huang Yingying must have soaked the beans a long time ago.
These beans must be quite difficult to obtain.
After all, in this day and age, it's good enough to have enough to eat; no one would buy so many different kinds of beans for no reason.
"This is the eight-treasure porridge I cooked. Try it and see if you like it."
"I put rock sugar in, it's sweet and delicious." Huang Yingying smiled as she handed two bowls of eight-treasure porridge to Su Niannian and Song Zhaodi.
However, neither of them made a move to accept it.
Huang Yingying was clearly embarrassed.
The bowl was too hot to handle, so I had no choice but to put it on the table.
When Huang Yingying turned her back to the two people and put down the porridge bowl, her face immediately darkened.
But when he turned back, he was all smiles again.
He can truly be called a master of changing faces.
"Aren't you two really going to have some? It's really delicious." Huang Yingying probed again, hoping that the two of them would have some.
As a result, Su Niannian and Song Zhaodi treated Huang Yingying like a thief, and neither of them had any desire to drink.
Huang Yingying wondered if she had been too obvious, which made the two of them wary of her.
Thinking about the people waiting outside, Huang Yingying couldn't help but feel that things were getting complicated.
However, let's go out and talk to the people outside first.
Thinking it over, Huang Yingying silently left the room.
Seeing that Huang Yingying had left, Su Niannian walked to the table and picked up a bowl of eight-treasure porridge.
Song Zhaodi followed to take a look. She naturally knew that Su Niannian didn't want to drink the eight-treasure porridge, but rather wanted to see what was inside.
"Can you tell what's in this stuff?" Song Zhaodi thought the eight-treasure porridge smelled very sweet, but she couldn't tell what was wrong with it.
Su Niannian brought her nose closer and smelled it.
I could smell some kind of herbal aroma, and after thinking about it, I realized it must be the smell of aconite.
Aconitum carmichaelii is a medicinal herb with an extremely bitter taste. Taking it can cause numbness and weakness in the limbs, leading to coma.
Huang Yingying knows quite a lot; she even managed to find such herbs.
No wonder it's called Eight Treasure Porridge; it has many kinds of beans, a complex flavor, and the addition of rock sugar can mask the bitterness.
It seems Huang Yingying put a lot of thought into it.
Su Niannian put down the bowl, then pulled Song Zhaodi back to sit on the edge of the kang (heated brick bed).
"It's a kind of herb. Drinking it will paralyze your limbs and then cause you to fall into a coma," Su Niannian said to Song Zhaodi in a low voice.
Upon hearing Su Niannian's words, Song Zhaodi's eyes widened slightly.
"It seems that Huang Yingying is indeed targeting you in order to win over Gu Nan."
"I have a feeling you're in danger..." Song Zhaodi said with some concern.
Although she had lived a hard life before, she had never encountered anyone being drugged like this before.
Suddenly I find Huang Yingying really scary.
Now there are two bowls of eight-treasure porridge here, clearly intending to knock them out as well.
She's just a little girl, how could she be so vicious?
Just to win over a man who doesn't even like her?
Huang Yingying, who had left the educated youth settlement, came to a tree that was a little secluded nearby.
A man was sitting on a large rock under a tree, staring intently at the ants on the ground.
He seems to be thinking about something.
Hearing footsteps approaching, the man looked up and saw Huang Yingying coming over.
The man quickly got up. "Are you dizzy?" the man asked Huang Yingying.
Huang Yingying shook her head.
"No, Song Zhaodi came back for some reason. They were a bit wary of me and didn't fall for it." Huang Yingying didn't beat around the bush and directly told the situation.
"Are you really sure that if I take Su Niannian's body, she will marry me?" The man still had some doubts about what Huang Yingying had told him before.
"Of course! What good would it do me to lie to you?"
"Think about Zhao Sulan. Isn't it because of that thing she did with Lu Xingguang that they're now married?"
"You liked Zhao Sulan before because you thought her family background was pretty good. But think about Su Niannian. She's much better than Zhao Sulan in terms of looks and money. Look at all the bicycles parked in that yard!"
Huang Yingying continued speaking to the man in front of her.
