"Without her, you won't be angry anymore, and you won't have any troubles."
An Nuannuan pushed Tan Kai with all her might, "What kind of poison did you give Qian Chong?!"
"I poisoned you? Didn't you put the drug in there yourself? At most, I was just a drug provider. The one who poisoned you was you, An Nuannuan."
"What kind of poison? It's a powder extracted from the seeds of the sea lemon tree. You put in a full 12 grams. The human body can only withstand 10 grams of this poison at most. There's about half an hour left. Ji Qianchong can only hold on for half an hour."
"By the way, An Nuannuan." Tan Kai looked down at her, "You should think about what you should do. Intentional homicide is a criminal offense and you will go to jail. So now, you'd better escape quickly. You can still have a few days of freedom before going to prison."
An Nuannuan held the door open, said nothing more, and ran away.
Her steps were long, heavy, and labored. She pulled out her phone and, with shaking hands, dialed July's number. Ji Liangnian's brother was an international physician. If she told him the name of the poison, he might find a way to save Qian Chong.

An Nuannuan left, and just as Tan Kai turned his gaze away from the direction she left, he was pushed by Qianxue.
He quickly grabbed Qianxue, who was about to leave, and pulled her back. "Qianxue, you instigated An Nuannuan to drug Ji Qianchong, hoping he would lose to you in this piano competition. You can't show up. What if An Nuannuan tries to get away with it and tells the police that you gave her the lemongrass poison powder... Even if you're not convicted, your image will be damaged. You're the eldest daughter of the Qian family, and you still work as a pianist..."
Qianxue shook off Tan Kai's hand and walked out of the box without looking back.
Tan Kai once again grabbed Qianxue in the corridor.
The woman was shaking, even her shoulders. Her breathing was unsteady, and her voice trembled. "Qian Chong is dead, so why should I be a pianist? When my mom, my brother, and I entered the Qian family, grandpa didn't acknowledge us. That year, we went to the Qian family's old house in Haicheng to pay New Year's greetings to grandpa. Qian Chong was playing the piano in the living room, and grandpa smiled and said she played very well."
"I climbed up on the chair and started playing, but Grandpa didn't say a word. So I kept practicing, hoping to surpass Qian Chong."
She turned her head and looked at Tan Kai. "I just wanted to beat her once. I just wanted her to sincerely call me sister! She's dead, what else do I want? Tan Kai, tell me, if she's dead, does my victory make sense?"
Qianxue politely removed Tan Kai's hand from her arm. "If anything happens to Qianchong, neither you, nor An Nuannuan, will be able to escape. We will all go to jail together to accompany her."

An Nuannuan couldn't get through to July.
She ran forward like a headless fly, without looking at the road or knowing where she was going.
When she ran to the corner of the corridor and entered the open space in the backyard of the Bird's Nest, An Nuannuan felt her body lighten. Someone grabbed her arm and pulled her out.
When she came to her senses and looked up, she saw a familiar face.
Ji Qianchong's face.
Her complexion was rosy, delicate and shiny, and she was still smiling, just like before.
The moment An Nuannuan saw Ji Qianchong's face, tears started to fall. She thought she was hallucinating, so she pulled Ji Qianchong's clothes tightly and refused to let go.
