Chapter 205 Make it impossible for her to give birth!
Zhong Xiaotian was completely at a loss and could only watch helplessly as Su Yue calmly gave instructions.
Su Yue unfolded her needle case, and a row of silver needles of varying lengths gleamed coldly under the lamp.
She removed the needle and disinfected it with swift, fluid movements, without the slightest hesitation.
"Brother Zhong, help your sister-in-law sit up straight and let her lie flat on the bed."
Zhong Xiaotian quickly did as he was told, carefully laying Xu Caixia flat.
Su Yue picked up a three-inch-long silver needle, aimed at the acupoint above Xu Caixia's abdomen, and inserted it steadily without hesitation.
Her fingers gently twisted and turned, the tip of the silver needle trembling slightly.
Then, the second one, the third one...
Within minutes, seven or eight silver needles were inserted into Xu Caixia's lower abdomen and legs.
The body, which had been tense from the excruciating pain, visibly relaxed. The cold sweat on the forehead gradually stopped, and the rapid breathing became steady.
Zhong Xiaotian watched from the side, his heart pounding in his chest, barely daring to breathe.
Another ten minutes or so passed before Su Yue removed the needles one by one.
She checked Xu Caixia's pulse again; the chaotic and agitated pulse had been suppressed, and although it was still weak, it was finally stable.
"The baby... is saved."
Su Yue said softly.
These four words were like heavenly music to Zhong Xiaotian.
This tough man's eyes instantly reddened, and he was about to kneel down before Su Yue with a thud.
"Sister-in-law, you are a great benefactor to our family!"
Gu Beichen reacted quickly and caught him.
"Brother Zhong, now is not the time to talk about this."
Su Yue stood up, walked to the table, picked up a pen and paper, and quickly wrote down a prescription.
"Go get the medicine according to this prescription, boil three bowls of water down to one bowl, and give it to your sister-in-law to drink immediately. She must rest in bed for the next few days and cannot afford any further mishaps."
"Hey! Hey!" Zhong Xiaotian took the paper covered in writing, his hands trembling. He tucked it into his pocket like a treasure and rushed out.
Only Su Yue, Gu Beichen, and Xu Caixia, who was fast asleep on the bed, remained in the room.
Gu Beichen took off his military overcoat and draped it over Su Yue, then wrapped her cold hands in his warm palms.
"What happened?"
Su Yue didn't answer immediately. She walked to the table, picked up the bowl of chicken soup that Xu Caixia had left over, and smelled it.
I can't smell anything.
But she knew that was where the problem lay.
“It was the calming soup that Yunlan brought.” Su Yue’s voice was soft, but icy. “I was the target. Sister-in-law Caixia took the blame for me.”
Gu Beichen's body tensed instantly, and a terrifying killing intent emanated from him.
He turned to leave.
"I'm going to find Deputy Regiment Commander Zhou."
"Stop!" Su Yue called out to him.
She walked up to him and looked up at his face, which was full of hostility.
"What's the point of going to him now? Yunlan can say she doesn't know anything and that something accidentally got mixed in while the soup was being simmered in the kitchen. Without evidence, you'll only alert him."
"That bowl of soup..."
“I told you to pour that soup into the chicken feed trough,” Su Yue calmly analyzed. “Even if we kill the chicken now and find medicinal residue in the gizzard, Yun Lan can still deny everything. She can even say that someone deliberately framed her.”
This whole affair was shrouded in a sinister scheme from beginning to end.
The person who poisoned the victim not only understood pharmacology, but also human nature.
The dosage of the drug was extremely small, designed to create the illusion of an accidental miscarriage in the woman.
If it weren't for my expertise in this area, the child in Xu Caixia's womb would surely have died tonight!
"Then what do we do? Just let it go like this?"
Gu Beichen's voice was filled with overwhelming anger.
“Of course not.” A cold smile appeared on Su Yue’s lips. “If she wants to play dirty tricks, I’ll play along to the end.”
“Yunlan can’t do this alone. She has an inside man in the military compound.”
Su Yue spoke slowly and deliberately.
"We have to drag that rat hiding in the ditch out."
Meanwhile, nobody knew.
A few days ago, in a chaotic dock warehouse on Hainan Island.
Yunlan's distant cousin, Yun Chao, a local thug with some notoriety in both the legitimate and underworld circles of Hainan Island, was sitting with his legs crossed, counting a stack of brand-new "100-yuan notes" in his hand.
"Brother, it's that simple. Help me find someone to keep an eye on that new nanny at the Gu family. I need all the information about her."
On the other end of the phone, Yunlan's voice was filled with resentment and bitterness.
"Don't worry, girl." Yun Chao spat out the cigarette butt from his mouth, grinning with a gruff smile. "I'm a professional when it comes to getting paid. She's just a nanny from the countryside. I'll find out everything about her family history within three days."
Yun Chao's efficiency is indeed very high.
He had a gang of thugs working for him, and they quickly found out that the new nanny in the Gu family, an old woman named Li Ma, had a son who was a gambling addict in his hometown and owed the casino a large sum of money, which was now compounded by interest and almost impossible to pay back.
This is practically a perfect breakthrough that fell from the sky.
On a sunny afternoon, Li Ma carried a vegetable basket and walked from the market to the military family compound.
As soon as she turned into a quiet alley, several shady-looking young men suddenly rushed out and blocked her way.
Li Ma was startled and backed away repeatedly.
"What...what are you going to do?"
Yun Chao slowly emerged from behind the group, toying with a folded piece of paper in his hand.
"Sister Li, don't be nervous, I just want to ask you for a small favor."
He unfolded the paper in front of Li Ma.
It was a casino IOU, with "Wang Ergou's" signature and red handprint starkly visible. The number below the IOU made Li Ma's vision blur, and she almost fainted on the spot.
"My son...my son he..."
"Your son is visiting us right now."
Yun Chao grinned and pulled a few more photos out of his pocket, tossing them into Li Ma's shopping basket.
In the photo, a young man is beaten black and blue, curled up on the ground, looking utterly miserable.
It was her beloved son, Wang Ergou!
"Ah!" Li Ma let out a shrill scream, her whole body went limp, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
"Please, please let my son go! We have no money, we really have no money!"
She knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.
"Don't rush to cry."
Yun Chao squatted down and patted her trembling shoulder, his voice low and seductive.
"We don't want the money."
"If you do us a favor, we'll tear up this IOU right now. Not only that, I'll give you this amount as well."
He extended five thick fingers.
Five hundred yuan!
Li Ma's crying stopped abruptly, and she stared blankly at Yun Chao.
The immense fear and the lure of money falling from the sky were like two invisible hands, gripping her throat and completely robbing her of her ability to think.
Her lips trembled as she asked, almost in a whisper.
"What...what do you want me to do?"
Yun Chao leaned close to her ear, a sinister smile spreading across his lips as he uttered a few words, one by one.
"Make her...unable to give birth."
