Chapter 1225: A Special Fragrance
After Liu Yiqin left, Xia Xibei sat quietly in the room.
After a while, she felt thirsty and picked up the beverage.
Only, when the cup reached her mouth, she stopped.
The tea smelled very sweet, and before you drank it, one couldn’t help but salivate.
If it were other people, they might have already finished it and would have lamented that the Qi family was so extraordinary that even the tea for guests was so good.
However, Xia Xibei stopped.
She looked down, stared at the tea cup for a while, and frowned.
There were a few tea leaves floating inside, which looked beautiful and smelled tempting.
However, Xia Xibei sniffled, put the cup down, and turned her head to look around.
Soon, she stood up and walked towards a vase of flowers.
...The vase had flowers in it and looked beautiful.
Although beautiful, it was not the same kind of flowers that everyone usually saw.
No guest would care what kind of flowers these were, but Xia Xibei did.
She leaned in, inhaled for a moment, and then her face sank.
Others didn’t recognize these flowers, but she did.
They looked like ordinary wildflowers, and were not as well-known and common as roses and lilies.
Not many people knew about these flowers, because this was a spiritual plant.
Although it was only the most ordinary spiritual plant, typical people would not recognize it.
Moreover, this flower was very special. As long as it was mixed with a certain scent, it could produce a dizzying effect.
As for the other scent…
It was naturally hidden in the tea being served.
As long as she drank the tea, and the temperature in the room was adjusted upward to thirty degrees, these flowers would continue to bloom and give off a stimulating scent.
By then, the two scents would mix together to affect Xia Xibei and she would be dizzy and delirious.
Thinking about this, Xia Xibei’s face was very unpleasant.
She had come to meet Ling Xiao, but she hadn’t expected to encounter this kind of thing!
She wanted to ask what she had done to offend them, and why did they do this to her?
She definitely didn’t believe that it was just a mere coincidence. After all, the tea was sitting on the table in plain sight.
If it was other people, they would have already drunk the tea.
While she was suspicious, the temperature in the room indeed began to rise.
Feeling the increasing temperature and smelling the fragrance emitted by the flowers, she turned stony-faced.
She looked around the room, but there was no surveillance here.
Exactly! Who would put surveillance in the room?
It seemed that the person behind it had calculated the time.
However, she was very curious, who was doing this to her?
Did she offend someone?
She didn’t have any grudges with the Qi family. Even if she had a bit of dealings with Qi Zhi’an before, she was helping him, and the two of them didn’t expose their relationship, so it was not like someone would use this trick against her!
Various doubts flashed in her mind and she poured the tea into the vase.
As long as she didn’t drink the tea, there would be no problem.
After pouring out the tea, she returned to her seat and sat quietly, waiting for the next move.
After another moment, the temperature went down again.
After the temperature went down, the flowers returned to a half-open state and the fragrance disappeared.
She sneered. This was indeed powerful, as it left no evidence!
After sitting for a while, she stood up violently, and her gaze darted toward the window.
It turned out to be a bright green snake!
Her face changed slightly and her thoughts churned, then she rushed to the door and ran out.
“Help!”
