He almost missed the antidote.
After helping An Zhenxiong treat his wounds, Dr. Ouyang left. He was only responsible for treating illnesses and saving lives. Other things had nothing to do with him, and there were some secrets that he was not allowed to hear.
For wealthy families like this, sometimes the more they know, the faster they die.
With no outsiders around, the Second Elder looked at the hidden darts on the tray and said thoughtfully, "Master, why not just issue three arrest warrants for Rhett? Keeping him around will only bring disaster to us sooner or later."
Rhett is the third child and illegitimate son of the old master of the Dessen family. He failed to seize power in the family infighting a while ago and fled with his confidants.
The purpose of this banquet tonight was to lure him out, but Rhett was so cunning that he let his confidant serve as a scapegoat for him. He himself got wind of the situation and ran away first.
After what happened tonight, it will not be so easy to catch Rhett in the future. He is too defensive.
An Zhenxiong waved his hand, his eyes showing fatigue. "We'll talk about this tomorrow. You guys go back first."
Considering his injury, the elders dropped the topic and left one after another.
Zuo Fei saw them off. After they got in the car and left, he turned to look at the guards on duty and said, "You go down first."
The Iron Guards responded with a "yes" and retreated neatly, and the tense feeling in the air dissipated.
Zuo Fei walked back to the living room and met Shang An Zhenxiong's scrutinizing gaze. "Where did the medicine come from?"
Zeng Liang could deceive the elders, but he couldn't deceive him.
If the powder was given by Xiunian, how could he not know about it?
There were only three of them here, so Zuo Fei said without hesitation, "The medicine was given by the young master, and so was the prescription."
Zeng Liang looked shocked. Zuo Fei asked him to find a random excuse to deal with the elders, but did not say who gave him the medicine.
"You said, the young master gave it to you?" He swallowed and asked in disbelief.
Zuo Fei nodded.
An Zhenxiong was no less surprised than him, and almost thought that he was hallucinating due to poisoning.
No wonder the little girl left so readily just now, and even specifically asked Zuo Fei to take her back. It turned out that she wanted Zuo Fei to get medicine.
He said, "Tell me clearly, what's going on? Where did Xiao Ci get the medicine and prescription?"
Zuo Fei repeated everything he said after sending An Ci back. Just as he finished, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Zeng Liang went to open the door.
Against the darkness of the night, a small figure stood at the door. It was none other than An Ci who had left and returned.
Zeng Liang's eyes widened in shock, "Young Master, why are you here again?"
It was cold outside, so Zeng Liang quickly let her in.
An Ci pulled down his hat, revealing his little face, which was red from the cold wind. "I'm here to see Grandpa."
As she spoke, she walked quickly into the living room and went straight to An Zhenxiong who was sitting on the sofa.
"Grandpa, how are you? Are you feeling better?" She stopped.
An Zhenxiong looked at his grandson who had come running back, and his eyes gradually softened. "It's so cold outside at night, how did you get here?"
"I came here running." An Ci said while looking at his face.
In fact, she had come here a long time ago and was hiding in the bushes, waiting until the elders left before she came out.
I was almost frozen into a popsicle.
An Zhenxiong touched her face, which was icy cold. He frowned and said with a distressed tone, "Didn't I tell you to go back to sleep? Why are you running out here again? It's so cold outside, what if you catch a cold?"
"I'm worried about you and can't sleep." An Ci said with a smile, taking the opportunity to put his hands on his and calmly took his pulse.
"Grandpa, does your wound still hurt?"
An Zhenxiong was deeply moved by her words. Little boy, it turned out that his love for her was not in vain. He now knew how to care for others.
