Unexpected Birthday Present (2)
Sun Qiang's laughter echoed in the place, a blend of satisfaction and malice. "Haha... You've played the long game, Ningning. Don't blame me for being ruthless!" His hand instinctively reached for a piece of cake, poised to take a triumphant bite, only to abruptly throw it away with a horrified expression.
"Put this cake away quickly!" he barked at his accomplice.
As the tainted cake soared through the air, Sun Qiang, unaware of Hu Ning's exceptional bloodline, reveled in the success of his devious plan.
The cake, infused with the potent aphrodisiac, was a devious concoction. However, in their scheming, neither Wei Jun nor Sun Qiang were aware that Hu Ning's extraordinary bloodline bestowed upon her a unique defense against poisons.
Yet, this ability was a double-edged sword, active only when not in a dormant stage.
In this dormant state, Hu Ning found herself far more vulnerable to the effects of any poison than an ordinary person.
