Chapter 898 - 418
Xiao Xuyang was never the kind of person who liked to meddle in others’ affairs. He overheard a bit but didn’t take it to heart. He had no idea who Loo Xinyue was, and the only reason he noticed her was because she seemed out of place in the private room when he walked in.
The man and woman were clearly plotting against Loo Xinyue, but whether she was unaware or pretended to be unaware, Xiao Xuyang didn’t know and had no interest in finding out.
Xiao Xuyang acted as if he hadn’t heard anything, washed his hands, and returned to the private room. However, as he drank and chatted with others, his attention would involuntarily drift toward Loo Xinyue and the couple beside her.
Thus, he clearly saw the woman, at the man’s instruction, spike Loo Xinyue’s drink with powder. He also witnessed Loo Xinyue, seemingly oblivious, drink the tainted beverage.
Xiao Xuyang slightly furrowed his brows when he saw Loo Xinyue drink the spiked wine. But in the next second, he shifted his attention away from her, no longer sparing her any thought.
Whatever would happen next had nothing to do with him, Xiao Xuyang.

Xiao Xuyang had thought that he and Loo Xinyue would never have any interaction again because they simply didn’t belong to the same world.
But sometimes, fate works in mysterious ways.
At that meal, the person being set up wasn’t just Loo Xinyue, but also Xiao Xuyang himself.
