Qin Xiao's lips curved upward slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile. He gently set down his coffee cup with a casual motion that actually carried deep intent. At the same time, a flash of slyness crossed his eyes, seeming to hint at something. Then, his gaze swept over Chianti before quickly retracting. That brief eye contact seemed to hold a thousand unspoken words.
Sitting nearby, Curaçao acutely caught the fleeting expression of pain on Qin Xiao's face. Her gaze slowly shifted to the cup of coffee Qin Xiao had placed on the table, and she instantly understood the trick hidden within. It turned out that Chianti had tampered with that cup of coffee.
Curaçao sneered inwardly. She had long since seen through Chianti's intentions, but she had not expected her to be so blatant about tampering with it. However, Curaçao knew very well that this was not the time to expose Chianti's plot, lest she let her succeed. Therefore, she decided to remain silent for the time being and wait and see how Qin Xiao would resolve the dilemma before him.
