"Mom, what did the doctor say when Little Fatty went to the hospital for a checkup?"
Wen Xingyue drank more than half a bottle before she was satisfied and stopped. Thinking of the check-up that Huo's mother had mentioned, she quickly asked about it with concern.
This morning, Huo's mother took the day off to take Huo Tingjun to the hospital for a check-up.
Mentioning the examination and thinking about the results, the smile on Huo's mother's face faded, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.
The youngest son had a significant amount of residual appetite-stimulating drug components in his body.
It was because he had taken a lot of appetite-stimulating medicine that the youngest son felt hungry every day and was never full.
"The doctor said that Xiao Jun had a lot of appetite stimulant residue in his body. I don't know who gave it to him! If I find out, I'll make them pay!"
Mrs. Huo, her face contorted with anger, forced out the words through gritted teeth.
Any mother would get angry if her child was touched.
"Mom, has Xiaojun been given an appetite stimulant?"
Wen Xingyue feigned surprise, as if she didn't know that Huo Tingjun had been drugged.
She felt a little relieved, thankfully it was just an appetite stimulant and not any other kind of medicine. Wen Xingyue was worried that someone might give Huo Tingjun some medicine that was bad for his health.
Having spent so much time together, she still liked Xiao Pang quite a bit and didn't want anything to happen to him.
"Yes, an appetite stimulant. I don't know who put it in him or what it was in. It's utterly heinous to harm a child like this!" Mother Huo clenched her teeth.
Even if we find out today that the result isn't very serious, and it's just that our appetites have been stretched too far, we're still so young and our appetites are already this big. What will happen in the future?
Despite her anger, Mrs. Huo still remembered the main purpose of taking her son for a check-up today.
"Xingyue, you young people are knowledgeable, but do you know what kind of person would drug a child, and where they would drug it?" Mother Huo asked, trying to calm herself down, looking at her expectantly.
"Mom, I think Xiaopang was drugged by someone he trusts, maybe his classmate. You can ask Xiaopang who his most trusted and closest friend is, and then investigate. I think Xiaopang was drugged with food, something he likes to eat. We can check what Xiaopang eats every day, follow the clues, and eventually find the real culprit."
Wen Xingyue was not to be outdone. She didn't know what humility was either, and rattled off her opinions in a flurry. In the end, she even blurted out an idiom, a word that was completely out of character for her.
She learned all of this from watching TV these past few days and is now putting it into practice.
[I don't know if they'll understand what I mean by "pretty mom," but the person who drugged Little Fatty is his classmate, whom he often interacts with and who frequently eats his food.]
Wen Xingyue muttered to herself, feeling somewhat worried.
"Xingyue is so smart. Mom told Dad to go down and investigate. We must find the real culprit."
Having already learned about the real culprit from Wen Xingyue, it wouldn't be surprising if the real culprit were found later, Huo's mother quickly praised.
"hey-hey."
Wen Xingyue smiled shyly after being praised.
Huo Tingxiao's cold and stern eyes softened.
...
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and an incident occurred in the quiet family compound that caused an uproar.
Huo Tingjun got fatter and fatter because she was drugged by Qian Feipeng from the Qian family.
Everyone in the compound was incredulous upon hearing the news.
They thought Huo Tingjun had just gotten fat because the Huo family had spoiled him, but they never expected that he had been drugged.
The mere thought of drugging someone is terrifying.
The thought of such a harmful family living in their neighborhood sent chills down everyone's spines. Some who felt their children were overweight also took them to the hospital for checkups.
These days, children are the lifeblood of a family. If something happens to a child, the family is practically broken.
"What's wrong? What's all the noise outside?"
Wen Xingyue rubbed her sleepy eyes, sat up in bed, and looked at the person sitting by her bedside.
It's so noisy outside, like sparrows chirping away.
"The people Dad arranged have found out the truth about Xiaojun being drugged, and everyone knows about it and is talking about it."
When Huo Tingxiao saw that she was awake, he reached out and took the cup from the bedside table and handed it to her; it contained warm water.
She gets thirsty easily after waking up from her afternoon nap.
"Has the investigation into Little Fatty being drugged been completed?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Xingyue disregarded everything else and looked at him with delight.
After a week of investigation, we finally found out who the bad guy was who harmed Little Fatty.
"Okay, drink some water first." Huo Tingxiao nodded, her voice hoarse.
"Okay." Wen Xingyue obediently took the cup and drank.
"We've discovered that the person who drugged Xiaojun was his former best friend, Qian Feipeng. He would put the drug in the food he brought to Xiaojun every day. Xiaojun liked his mother's cooking, so he often swapped meals with Qian Feipeng. At first, it was fine, but this semester, they started directly exchanging meals, which is why Xiaojun gradually began to change..."
Seeing her secretly glancing at him with obvious curiosity, Huo Tingxiao's eyes curved slightly as he slowly began to speak.
The people arranged by the Huo family have already investigated and found out the truth, but they have also uncovered an absurd matter.
The real culprit is Qian Feipeng, but he was instructed to do so; the real instigator was his father.
Qian Feipeng's father lost to Huo's father in a promotion competition more than ten years ago, and he has always kept it in mind. More than ten years have passed, Huo's father has been promoted higher and higher, while he has remained stagnant. The two sons are also very different. One was persuaded to leave the army, while the other rose steadily in the army.
In comparison, as Huo's father rose higher and higher, even reaching a position that the two could not match, the initial resentment gradually deepened and evolved into hatred.
After being discharged from the army, the eldest son stayed at home doing nothing, while Huo Tingxiao repeatedly made military achievements. Qian Feipeng's father was unwilling to accept this, and coincidentally, news came that Huo's mother was pregnant with her second child.
Qian Feipeng's father couldn't sit still any longer. He also wanted to have another child, but after giving birth to his eldest son, Qian's mother's health was depleted, and she could no longer have children.
There was no other way; Qian's father was determined to surpass the Huo family. He took advantage of Qian's mother's inattention to find another woman, who proved to be fertile and quickly became pregnant.
Later, when Qian's mother found out about this, she broke down and made a scene, wanting to send both mother and son to the police station. No woman could tolerate such a thing.
But how could Qian's father, given his status, tolerate this being exposed? If it were, his career would be over, and he would have no chance of competing with the Huo family.
So Mr. Qian threatened Mrs. Qian that if she dared to cause trouble, they would get a divorce and he would not take care of their son anymore. In those days, divorce was a shameful thing. And thinking about her son who had accomplished nothing, Mrs. Qian, a weak woman, simply could not support her son.
She was completely controlled by Qian's father, who not only forced her to tolerate the woman, but also forced her to acknowledge the child as his own.
What woman could tolerate such a thing? But Qian's mother was held hostage and endured the disgust. Later, Qian's father brought the child back and claimed that it was his and Qian's mother's second child, namely Qian Feipeng.
