Chapter 189 Gu Chen captured Xia Yue
Faced with Xia Yue's persistent questioning, Gu Chen had no way to defend himself.
He did have ulterior motives; he wanted to get rid of Qin Yeting and win Xia Yue back.
But he believes that, from his perspective, everything he did was right.
"Junior sister, I'm sorry, I've offended you."
Gu Chen suddenly made his move, injecting an anesthetic into Xia Yue's neck!
Before Xia Yue could even resist, her body went limp.
Although her body is immune to all poisons, anesthesia is not considered a poison, so she did not deliberately practice desensitization.
"You...you just wait and see, I will never let you go!" Before Xia Yue fainted, she sprinkled some poisonous powder on Gu Chen's face.
Gu Chen hadn't expected that even though Xia Yue was physically collapsed, she still had the strength to poison him and the mind to scheme against him.
He held Xia Yue in one hand and took out a wet wipe with the other, helplessly wiping the powder off her face.
I don't know what kind of poison my junior sister gave him, but his face has started to itch.
This girl is just as ruthless as she was when she was a child. For Qin Yeting, she doesn't care about her senior brother at all.
But it's okay.
"Junior sister, this time I'll make you behave, so you'll never be able to leave me again."
The capital of country A.
Family-oriented.
Xia Yue has been detained here for two days. The area is heavily guarded, and she has no chance to escape.
She was unaware of what was happening outside: the Fourth Prince's wedding had gone wrong, Xia Jingjing had miscarried, and they were blaming her for it.
Then what?
Was the Feng family implicated?
How is Qin Yeting?
Will the mother, who is poisoned and in a coma in the palace, worsen without her treatment?
All the worries piled up in Xia Yue's heart.
Xia Yue couldn't eat or sleep well, and she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Since Xia Yue had barely eaten in the past two days, Gu Chen was also a little worried and could only give Xia Yue a glimmer of hope.
He sent an acquaintance to deliver food to Xia Yue.
When Xia Yue saw the white smoke, her eyes instantly turned cold.
"Yanyan!" Xia Yue exclaimed excitedly, stepping forward to hug Baiyan.
Bai Yan put down the food box and noticed Xia Yue's somewhat haggard appearance. Her expression became more worried. "Yueyue, I'm sorry. Did I get you into this mess? Were you locked up here to save me?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Yue knew that Bai Yan was being controlled by Gu Chen and knew nothing about the outside world.
She was somewhat disappointed, having originally intended to inquire about the situation outside through Bai Yan.
"No, that's not true. I was tricked by Gu Chen," Xia Yue comforted Bai Yan, then asked, "How about you? How have you been lately? Is your mother feeling better?"
"Much better. Although Dr. Gu wouldn't allow my mother and me to leave, he personally treated my mother and used many expensive medicines. My mother's leg has basically recovered." Bai Yan's expression clearly showed relief when she mentioned this.
Xia Yue nodded, her resentment towards Gu Chen finally lessening somewhat.
That guy at least has a conscience; he knows to take good care of her friend.
"Dr. Gu said you haven't been eating properly since you arrived, so he asked me to bring you something personally. You should eat something; food is essential for health, so you need to take good care of yourself."
When I was imprisoned by Mo Xiao, I also protested by going on a hunger strike.
He still wouldn't let me go, and I ended up developing stomach problems and suffering even more.
White smoke placed the steaming hot food on the table.
Xia Yue wasn't refusing to eat; she just didn't have much of an appetite.
Hearing Bai Yan's words of comfort, she forced herself to eat a few more bites to replenish her strength.
After finishing her meal, Xia Yue felt much more energetic.
Bai Yan then asked seriously, "Yueyue, although Dr. Gu helped me, I understand that you are the best person to me."
He's nice to me, but I have some use to him; he wants to use me to threaten him.
Don't worry, I'll always be on your side.
Tell me, is there anything I can do to get you out of here?
Seeing her friend's expression, Xia Yue felt much more at ease.
During this trip to Country A, instead of finding his master, he realized that his senior brother had truly betrayed him.
The mother was found, but she was poisoned and in a coma, and was imprisoned in the palace.
The father they found recognized Xia Jingjing as his daughter, ignoring her feelings.
Only people like Bai Yan, who support and encourage her, can offer her some comfort.
"I'll figure out the rest myself. You just stay here and keep things as they were before." Xia Yue refused Bai Yan's help.
She didn't want to involve any more people.
Gu Chen is not a good person. If he lets Bai Yan help him too much, he might kill Bai Yan in a fit of anger.
And she hasn't completely reached a dead end yet.
Gu Chen has a weakness she has, and he will come to her sooner or later.
An hour later.
Just as Xia Yue expected, Gu Chen really came, wearing a mask and covering his forehead with his hair, his whole face completely covered.
But upon seeing Xia Yue, he immediately removed his mask, revealing an extremely unsightly face covered in acne. His former handsome, refined, dashing, and noble appearance vanished completely.
"Junior sister, you really have some tricks up your sleeve. Even before you fainted, you didn't forget to give me such a strong poison. I spent two or three days trying to cure it, and it's only getting worse," Gu Chen said unhappily.
Xia Yue sneered, "No matter how skillful I am, I'm not as skilled as you, otherwise I wouldn't be here right now."
"Didn't you always want to surpass me in medical skills? How come you can't even solve this? Master values me more; choosing me as his successor was definitely a wise choice."
