CHAPTER 247: CHAPTER 247: A LITTLE POISON CHEERS, A LOT KILLS, TAKE IT EASY~

Bai Xuanmo picked up a shrimp cake and gave it to Zhi’er.

Suddenly, the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside.

A boastful laugh sounded: "Young Master, what a coincidence, meeting you here again."

Zhi’er, nibbling on the shrimp cake, looked up with big round eyes, curiously watching the newcomer.

It was a young gentleman about the same age as Bai Xuanmo, around fifteen years old, dressed in silk, looking like he came from a good family.

However, he wasn’t tall and had a round jovial face that gave off a straightforward and slightly foolish impression.

At this moment, the young gentleman’s eyes showed a hint of provocative hostility as he looked at Bai Xuanmo.

Bai Xuanmo gave him a casual glance and said indifferently, "Ke Shouwang, I don’t have time to play around with you today. If you don’t want to die by my hand, then scram immediately."

Though the tone was calm, it was laced with warning and menace.

Ke Shouwang rolled up his sleeves: "I’m not leaving. Last time I lost to you because I was careless. This time I will definitely win!"

While chewing on the shrimp cake, Zhi’er blinked her big eyes, watching the commotion.

Ke Shouwang turned his head and saw her, his eyes lit up.

Such a lovely little doll, like stepping out of a painting, with fine black eyebrows and big round eyes.

He immediately took a few steps forward: "Little sister, help us bear witness, and judge who wins later!"

However, before he could get closer, Bai Xuanmo waved his sleeve without even looking.

Ke Shouwang wasn’t prepared and inhaled a strange powder.

He shouted, "Not good, help..."

Before he could finish, Ke Shouwang fell straight to the ground.

The servant he brought along quickly surrounded him, babbling anxiously—

"Young master! What’s wrong, young master!"

"Quick, bring out the Awakening Incense the young master prepared in advance!"

Watching the chaotic fuss, Zhi’er asked curiously, "Brother, who is this person?"

"The sole heir of the Ke Family, he’s a simple-minded person, just ignore him, sister."

The little one blinked her eyes: "So what does he want to compete with you?"

Bai Xuanmo fed her a spoonful of egg custard: "Competing in poison."

"His father is the Supervisor of the three counties in Nan Zhili. He was the first to support my Imperial Uncle’s uprising back then, which is why the Ke Family holds significant influence now."

"Ke Shouwang’s grandmother is from Miao, so he has learned some true Poisonous Gu techniques."

"But he’s somehow obsessed with competing with me in poison techniques ever since I tricked him once."

Saying this, Bai Xuanmo turned his head and cast a cold glance at Ke Shouwang, who was being revived by the servants.

"If it weren’t for fearing Imperial Uncle’s displeasure, I would have killed him."

Zhi’er knowingly nodded her head.

Constantly losing but still wanting to compete, his persistence is truly commendable!

At this moment, Ke Shouwang stumbled to the side of the table, careful to cover his mouth and nose with his hand to avoid being poisoned again.

"Young Master, just say one thing, do you dare to compete or not?"

Bai Xuanmo cast a sidelong glance at him: "Can’t you tell I don’t have time to deal with you today?"

Ke Shouwang crossed his arms: "Then you don’t dare! If that’s the case, I want you to declare to the world that you’ve lost to me!"

Bai Xuanmo sneered: "Idiot, even after ten more years, you wouldn’t be able to beat me."

Zhi’er, listening to this, suddenly clapped her small hands on the table.

"Compete!" She chirped in a childish voice: "Brother, compete with him! A little poison brings pleasure, great poison spells doom, so just stop at an appropriate point~"

After saying this, Zhi’er joyfully called the waiter and ordered a plate of peanuts, seeds, and fruit water.

It’s going to be quite the show to watch!
