Xiaobai took two steps back and shook his head repeatedly, "Madam, no one else can touch the eldest young master's computer. This is the rule that Uncle Liu strictly instructed us on our first day at work."
Zhou Shuo was stunned holding the computer, "Really?"
Xiaobai nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes. Madam, you should send it back yourself. I don't dare."
Zhou Shuo carried the computer and carefully moved to the study. He knocked on the door gently, but no one answered.
She breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay, it's okay, he's not there.
She gently pushed the door open, thinking that she could put it back quietly without being discovered, so as to avoid embarrassment.
When she looked up, she saw Mu Ci looking at her with a smile.
Zhou Shuo was so scared that he almost threw the computer away.
Mu Ci smiled at her panic.
Zhou Shuo calmed down and thought: What am I panicking about? What's there to panic about?
Her greatest characteristic is that her brain can quickly clear out things she doesn't want to think about!
"I thought my brother was not at home." She calmly put the computer in front of Mu Ci.
"Because I wasn't at home, you sneaked into my study?" Mu Ci asked her with a raised eyebrow.
"I didn't sneak in! I came in openly!" Zhou Shuo smiled.
Mu Ci casually placed the computer on the table. Zhou Shuo asked curiously, "They said no one else can touch your computer. Xiaobai doesn't even dare to take it."
Mu Ci said "hmm" softly.
"Then you didn't tell me that your computer is so important?" Zhou Shuo wanted to find a way to stand firm and make it clear that it was not her fault.
Mu Ci said calmly, "Not as important as you."
Well--
Mu Ci took Zhou Shuo's hand and looked up at her: "Have you read the things on the computer?"
Zhou Shuo shook his head: "No."
"If you're interested, you can always watch it."
Zhou Shuo shook his head again, "No, not interested at all."
Mu Ci stood up with Zhou Shuo's hand and hugged her. "Okay, if you are not interested, don't watch it. Even if I am gone one day, you don't have to do these things yourself. I will arrange everything for you, and someone will take care of it for you."
Zhou Shuo's face turned cold and he pushed him. "Nonsense again! What do you mean you're gone? As long as I'm here, I will definitely make sure you're safe! Humph!"
Mu Ci grabbed Zhou Shuo's hand that was pushing him away and said gently, "Okay, no more talking. As long as you are here, I will live in peace and accompany you until old age."
Mu Ci has gradually been able to follow Zhou Shuo's train of thought. If he wants this girl to concentrate on her work, the best way is to act pessimistic and weak to make her feel distressed.
Zhou Shuo then nodded, as if praising his attitude of admitting his mistake, and reassured him once again: "I will definitely be able to cure you. Xiaobai has already found a way to get your previous medical records!"
Mu Ci frowned when he heard this, "Why did you let Xiaobai help you with the medical records? Why don't you just ask Uncle Liu to help you adjust it?"
Zhou Shuo shook her head, took Mu Ci's hand and was about to go to her room to look at her computer. When she reached the door, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She kept Mu Ci and said, "Don't go out. There are people outside. Wait for me, I'll be back soon!"
She hurried back to get the computer. Just as she opened the picture to show Mu Ci, she remembered to ask, "Brother, are you free? Otherwise, I'll come to see you when you are free."
Mu Ci held down her hand as she was about to close the computer, his eyes fixed on the screen, his voice cold: "I'm free, talk now."
Seeing this, Zhou Shuo quickly sat down and turned on his computer. "I've read the medical records Uncle Liu gave me and can't find anything wrong. But my brother has been poisoned for quite some time. If he had been receiving treatment from a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, even the most average one would have surely discovered it. So I suspect there might be something wrong with the traditional Chinese medicine."
Zhou Shuo quickly found a picture, then flipped through another one. "Brother Shitou, look, the dates on these two pictures are the same, but the contents are slightly different."
Mu Ci leaned over and took a closer look. "Are there two herbs on the other prescription?"
Zhou Shuo nodded. "Based on this prescription, my brother's condition at the time should have required a warming tonic, but these two herbs are cold. Although there are two laxatives in the entire prescription, which may be related to the patient's symptoms at the time, from what I've learned, these two herbs don't make sense. In the next cycle, these two herbs were no longer needed, and then it became a regular cycle, occurring every two years, lasting about a year. This is completely unreasonable. Brother, please look at the time and recall whether you were constantly unwell during that period, with your condition fluctuating?"
Mu Ci had already seen the time on the prescription and remained calm.
Zhou Shuo shook his head. "It was several years ago, and I guess my brother can't remember it anymore. After that, his prescriptions became more and more bold. Sometimes he was missing one or two auxiliary herbs, and sometimes he added some herbs that not only made no sense but were also slightly toxic."
Mu Ci looked at the two pictures carefully and asked, "The normal prescription was given to you by Uncle Liu, and the prescription with extra medicine was given to you by Xiaobai?"
Zhou Shuo shook his head. "No, the normal prescription was given to Xiaobai, and the prescription with the extra medicine was given to me by Uncle Liu. It's the medicine you took. I'm also wondering, isn't he afraid of someone reviewing it? Or maybe when he doesn't add ingredients, it means someone is reviewing his prescription. Then how does he know someone is reviewing his prescription? The most likely possibility is that someone was seeing patients with him, so the prescription was normal, but later, either that person stopped coming, or that person became involved with him."
Zhou Shuo thought about it, and seeing that Mu Ci's face was becoming more serious, she hesitated and said, "Brother, I'm just guessing, I don't have any actual evidence."
Mu Ci gently stroked Zhou Shuo's head. "No, your inference makes sense. We are not the police, so we don't need any actual evidence."
Zhou Shuo was stunned, "But——"
Mu Ci reached out and hugged Zhou Shuo, resting his chin on Zhou Shuo's shoulder, and said sadly: "Zhou Shuo, promise me, don't leave me."
Zhou Shuo's body stiffened for a moment, then he stretched out his arms and hugged Mu Ci, "Okay, I won't leave. I won't leave my brother. I don't have anywhere else to go. My brother took me in, so of course I have to stay here forever."
Mu Ci gritted his teeth and continued to hug Zhou Shuo, feeling even more sad. "Zhou Shuo, even my parents don't care about my life or death. There's no one around me who I can trust except Uncle Liu. No one cares about me except you and Grandpa."
Zhou Shuo couldn't help but patted Mu Ci's back distressedly, "It's okay, you still have me, I will protect you from now on! We are not afraid of anyone! I won't let anyone hurt you!"
Mu Ci's arms tightened a little, "Zhou Shuo, I actually just want to have a healthy body, a home of my own, and someone I love and who loves me."
Zhou Shuo nodded and reached out to touch Mu Ci's head. "Brother Shitou, I love you. You will always love me from now on. I will cure your illness and make you healthy. Our home, our home for the two of us, will definitely be very happy!"
Zhou Shuo felt extremely distressed and wished there was a way to soothe Mu Ci's pain in an instant. It seemed that his brother's inner pain was more serious than his illness.
