Chapter 755: Chapter 755: The Vicious Woman (1)

Huangfu Jue suppressed the urge to vomit and lifted the corners of his lips to reveal a slight smile.

The already handsome man, who rarely smiled, made it seem like spring had returned to the earth in an instant when he did. Qian Xueying couldn’t help but stare in a daze, her heart pounding rapidly.

Before, she had no real feelings for Huangfu Jue and only saw him as a stepping stone to her success, but now, she couldn’t help but be moved by the man before her.

Huangfu Jue withdrew his hand, suppressing the desire to tear apart her fake face, "Would you like some water?"

"That... alright!" She lowered her eyes, her face blushing shyly, "Thank you, Duke."

Huangfu Jue looked away and quickly got up, leaving her bedside. If he hadn’t arranged for Will to have another purpose, he would’ve preferred to look at a filthy rat rather than her deceitful face.

He slowly picked up a cup, slowly poured her water... he was doing his best to drag out the time.

Still, by the time he brought the cup to Qian Xueying, Will had not yet returned.

"Thank you!" Qian Xueying reached out to take the cup, her fingers inadvertently brushing against his, lifting her eyes to give him a gentle glance, "I always thought Mr. Duke was somewhat unapproachable, but now it seems I was overthinking it. Actually..."

With a soft sound, the door opened; Will had returned. Huangfu Jue breathed a sigh of relief, glancing at him reproachfully.

Receiving the glare, Will immediately spoke up.

"Mr. Duke, you have another meeting."

"I almost forgot." Huangfu Jue stood up as if relieved, "Miss Ying, I must be going then."

"I’ll walk you out."

"No need, I’ll come see you when I have time."

Huangfu Jue replied off-handedly and quickly left with Will.

Xiuyi saw the two off into the car and returned to Qian Xueying’s room, where he saw her gently rotating the glass cup that was half-filled with water in her right hand.

"Hmph!" Qian Xueying’s lips curled, her tone brimming with pride, "No matter how smart a man is, he still can’t escape from the palm of my hand."

From his previous indifference to now willingly pouring her water to drink, Qian Xueying believed that as long as she put in a bit more effort, this man would definitely fall for her.

...

...

In the car.

Huangfu Jue took the second tissue passed by Will and cleaned each finger meticulously before stopping.

"Did you get it?"

Will immediately took out a small segmented box from his pocket, "These are all of Duke Locke’s medications. I’ll send them for drug testing right away."

Throwing the wet tissue into the trash, Huangfu Jue then leaned back into his seat.

"How are things in F Country?"

"The public opinion there is very favorable to Miss Gan. I have contacted some of our partners, and they have all indicated that they will support Miss Gan," Will said, flipping through his work notebook, "Also, the day after tomorrow is the Liberal Party’s internal election, will you be heading over?"

Huangfu Jue nodded.

Whether Gan Yuan could pass the internal election of the Liberal Party was her ticket into the presidential race. Only by winning this election would she be eligible to enter the actual presidential race.

The car headed towards the Royal Palace, and Huangfu Jue spoke again.

"Go find a couple of gunmen to come over, just in case."

In this respect, Huangfu Jue and Moses thought alike.

If things really did go south and Annie won, he would never let her leave B City alive.
