Jing Yingyan knew he shouldn't involve Li Ying, so after a moment's thought, he said, "I'll find a way to send you all back to the capital!"
“We’re being monitored in Jiangcheng right now. Do you think we can get out? Jing Yingyan, I’m not afraid. My only worry is the children and Qingwan. As long as you can guarantee they’re safe, I don’t care.” Li Ying looked at Jing Yingyan with unwavering eyes.
Jing Yingyan felt even more guilty, clenched his fists, and promised, "You have to believe me, I can do it!"
Li Ying nodded; she chose to believe Jing Yingyan.
The next day, a group of people came to invite Li Ying in person.
"After taking the medicine, our boss was in great spirits and felt much better."
Li Ying smiled calmly: "Let's go, let's go get Boss Hu a follow-up check-up."
Chi En followed behind Li Ying and they went to a group together.
The follow-up examinations were naturally conducted by Chi Enlai.
Chi En was also very curious about what Li Ying had added to the herbs that could help the man's body recover so well and alleviate the severity of the erosion.
"Chi Eun verbally recounted the examination results."
Li Ying put down her teacup and said to Hu Laoda, "As long as you keep taking the medicine, both internally and externally, I believe Hu Laoda's illness will get better soon."
Hu Laoda was overjoyed and couldn't stop laughing: "As expected of Master Qian's disciple, no one can match him when he makes a move."
"Can you bring Zhou Qi to see me?"
After pondering for a moment, Boss Hu said to his subordinates, "Bring Zhou Qi here!"
Soon, Zhou Qi was helped into the living room. His clothes had been changed, and there were no new scars.
"Miss Ying!" Zhou Qi glanced at Li Ying, feeling quite ashamed.
It's all my fault for putting Ying in this situation.
"Are your injuries any better?" Li Ying asked routinely.
"I'm feeling a bit better."
Have they hit you again?
Zhou Qi shook his head: "No."
"That's good. I believe that once Boss Hu's condition improves, he will let you leave the gang and come with me," Li Ying comforted him.
Zhou Qi nodded emphatically, his eyes red-rimmed. He thought that once he returned to the gang, he would never have another chance to leave. He never expected that Miss Ying would come to save him personally, giving him a chance to choose his own life.
"Brother Hu, a promise is a promise. You can't go back on your word!"
"Of course, as long as I recover, you can take Zhou Qi with you!" Boss Hu declared.
Li Ying got up and led Chi En away.
Once outside, Chi En was curious and wanted to ask something when Lu Qingwan rushed over.
"Sister Yingying, something terrible has happened! That Madam Chang sent people to take Aunt Yang and Chenchen away, and said that if you don't do as they say, you can forget about seeing the children!"
Li Ying remained calm and, after thinking for a moment, said to Chi En, "You go back first, I'll go to the Chang family."
"good."
Li Ying brought Lu Qingwan to the Chang family's house, but the gate was closed this time, and no one answered the door when they knocked.
"What should we do, Yingying? They won't open the door or meet with you; they're trying to force you to agree to their demands."
Lu Qingwan was very anxious.
Li Ying was extremely anxious, but she maintained a calm demeanor. If she panicked, Lu Qingwan would panic even more, and those people would become even more unscrupulous when they saw her in this state.
“Mrs. Chang is a smart woman. I, Li Ying, am a military wife. My husband just sacrificed his life, so I am considered a martyr’s family member. She won’t do anything to the children,” Li Ying said deliberately, raising her voice.
The Chang family's gate slowly opened.
The little girl came out and said, "Our lady invites you in."
Li Ying followed the little girl, and Lu Qingwan walked behind her. The three of them entered the living room.
Madam Chang sat serenely, maintaining her elegant posture.
"Madam Chang, it's not right for you to so blatantly detain my child!"
"I'm just inviting your nanny and child to my home for a while, Dr. Li, there's no need to rush."
Li Ying smiled coldly: "So you're saying that if I don't agree to your request to drug Boss Hu, you'll detain my child?"
"I don't want to see that guy surnamed Hu running around for even a day, so Dr. Li, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"Madam Chang, as I said, you can wait a little longer."
"I can't wait! I can't wait even a day longer, I want him dead! I hope he dies tomorrow!" Madam Chang was uncharacteristically ferocious, her face contorted with rage, her teeth clenched.
"Fine, since Madam Chang wants him dead, I can help you. Tomorrow, he will die!"
"It seems Dr. Li is indeed a wise man. Show him out! I'll await Dr. Li's good news tomorrow!"
"Mrs. Chang had better send my son and nanny over, otherwise you will witness a mother's determination to protect her son."
Mrs. Chang waved her hand, and the little girl ran downstairs. Soon, Aunt Yang came over carrying Chenchen.
"Chenchen!"
Lu Qingwan finally smiled when she held Chenchen in her arms.
After leaving the Chang family and returning to the guesthouse, Jing Yingyan learned what had happened.
He felt very guilty.
"Li Ying, I..."
“Jing Yingyan, I know you are only a mortal, and it’s impossible for you to have everything or be able to do everything. It’s okay, I don’t blame you for this. But could you please find some useful people? I don’t need you to protect me, just protect my child.”
Jing Yingyan reiterated that he would not allow them to make any mistakes.
"Sister Yingying, are you going to drug Boss Hu tomorrow?" Lu Qingwan was worried that if this was discovered, Zhou Qi would be killed.
Li Ying looked at Jing Yingyan, "What do you think?"
After careful consideration, Jing Yingyan realized that the matter could not be delayed any longer. Since Madam Chang was so eager, the sooner they acted, the better.
"Promise Madam Chang that you will take action tomorrow."
Jing Yingyan lowered his voice and outlined the plan.
This plan was exactly the same as what Li Ying had planned beforehand.
Having reached an understanding, the next day, Li Ying sent someone to inform Madam Chang while preparing to meet with Hu Laoda.
"Li Ying, what medicine did you give our boss?"
As soon as Li Ying arrived at the group, she was surrounded by a group of people.
"What do you want?" Chi En stood protectively in front of Li Ying, glaring angrily.
"Our Boss Hu died suddenly this morning, vomiting blood!" The man pointed angrily at Li Ying. "It must have been you! It must have been you!"
"Looks like your Boss Hu really is dead?"
"Brothers, did you hear that? It's her! It's Li Ying who killed our boss! Arrest her, don't let her leave!"
The crowd was agitated and their momentum was intimidating.
"What do we do? What do we do? The two of us might not be able to break through!" Chi En rolled up his sleeves.
"stop!"
With a sharp shout, Madam Chang strode into the courtyard.
"Madam?" Everyone immediately dispersed.
Chi En breathed a sigh of relief.
Madam Chang glanced at Li Ying, her face cold and stern: "Li Ying, I heard you are Master Qian's apprentice, a renowned physician. Why did you poison my husband?"
What?
Chi En was furious upon hearing this. Wasn't it she who wanted Li Ying to drug Hu Laoda?
So it turns out they just wanted to make Li Ying a scapegoat!
"You old woman, didn't you tell us to harm Boss Hu?"
