The sudden sound startled everyone, even the bodyguards who were about to take action stopped. The bodyguards subconsciously looked at Dongfang Yelei, their eyes asking what they should do.
At this moment, Dongfang Yelei had no time to care about this group of people.
The person in front of him was truly astonishing.
If Jian Yixue had already given him a sense of familiarity, then the person before him was more than just familiar.
Upon seeing that familiar face again, Dongfang Yelei had a feeling of being in another world.
"Tinglan? Is that you?" Dongfang Yelei asked in disbelief.
Dongfang Tinglan sneered and said, "Then should I be honored that my second brother still remembers me?"
Dongfang Yelei was so surprised that he couldn't speak.
Dongfang Tinglan continued, "It's been so many years, and Second Brother has indeed become more and more imposing. He doesn't even put Mom and Dad in his eyes, does he?"
Upon hearing this, a hint of unease flashed in Dongfang Yelei's eyes, and he quickly put on a fake smile, saying, "What are you saying, little sister? How could I not care about Mom and Dad? Little sister, you've misunderstood."
In reality, Dongfang Yelei cursed Dongfang Tinglan in his heart more than once, wondering why she had to appear at this particular time.
For some reason, he always had the feeling that things were about to get out of control.
At this point, absolutely no changes can occur, otherwise that person will definitely not let you off easily.
"Misunderstanding?" Dongfang Tinglan raised an eyebrow slightly.
Dongfang Yelei nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, it really was a misunderstanding. By the way, little sister, where have you been all these years? We all miss you so much."
Dongfang Tinglan said coldly, "Then what does Second Brother mean by this?"
Dongfang Tinglan glanced meaningfully at the bodyguards who were about to make their move.
Dongfang Yelei looked over and was immediately stunned, then quickly searched for a reason in his mind.
"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding."
Dongfang Tinglan looked at Dongfang Yelei without saying a word.
Dongfang Yelei continued, "My parents have been unwell lately and have fallen into a coma. I was worried that someone might take advantage of this, so I brought someone to check on them."
“Little sister, you don’t know this group of people. They were brought back by Dongfang Yi on his own. He said they were doctors he had hired for Mom and Dad. There was this man with him, and there was also a young woman. How could people like that possibly cure Mom and Dad’s illness? I was worried that they would do something harmful to Mom and Dad, which is why I rushed over here in such a hurry.”
Dongfang Tinglan said, "Oh? Then why did Mom and Dad get poisoned when they weren't around?"
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yelei was immediately startled.
In a moment of carelessness, he blurted out, "Poisoned?"
Dongfang Tinglan hummed in agreement.
Dongfang Yelei felt a little uneasy upon seeing this.
He knew that Dongfang Tinglan was skilled in medicine, but he did not expect that Dongfang Tinglan would suddenly appear at this time.
Thinking of that person, he suddenly felt less worried.
The thing that person gave me shouldn't be so easily detected and cured.
As long as it doesn't deviate from his plan, there's no need to worry so much. In short, it's just another stumbling block, which he can simply remove.
"Is there any hope for this poison? I just returned from Africa recently and have no idea what happened at home."
However, I'm still investigating. Now that we know it's poisoning, that makes things easier. The most urgent thing is whether there's an antidote. If not, I'll immediately call a specialist doctor to treat my parents.
A sinister glint flashed in Dongfang Yelei's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
However, this change did not escape the notice of the three people present. Ye Mohan and Gong Beize exchanged a glance, and both of them understood each other.
Having spent over a decade or two with Dongfang Yelei, Dongfang Tinglan knew him very well.
The questions Jian Yixue asked in the room earlier added even more credibility to her guess.
The credibility of his statement remains to be seen.
"There's no need for you to worry about that, Second Brother. With me here, I'll make sure nothing happens to Mom and Dad."
As for why Jian Yixue wasn't mentioned, it was also out of consideration for her safety.
Dongfang Yelei is cunning and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. She didn't want Jian Yixue to be in such a risk.
Dongfang Yelei paused, realizing he couldn't say anything more.
He suddenly said, "That's good, then I can rest assured."
Then, turning to the bodyguards beside him, he angrily shouted, "What are you all standing there for! Get out of the way! Remember this: these people are all family with me. Be polite when you meet them in the future."
The bodyguards nodded repeatedly and then retreated behind Dongfang Yelei.
Dongfang Yelei then looked at his trusted confidant Shen Qiu and said, "Look what you've done! You reported without even investigating properly, almost making me lay a hand on my own people! When we get back, you'll have to accept your punishment!"
Shenqiu knew very well that this matter had nothing to do with him, but he still nodded and bowed, saying, "Yes, Master."
Dongfang Yelei then looked at Dongfang Tinglan and said, "Little sister, this is all my fault. I didn't investigate properly, which led to all this. I will definitely train my subordinates properly in the future and never make this mistake again."
Dongfang Tinglan and her two companions watched Dongfang Yelei perform a play without interrupting his performance.
Hearing Dongfang Yelei mention him, he finally managed to say, "This is my second brother's private matter, I won't interfere. I just hope I won't see you like this in front of Mom and Dad's house again."
"Definitely, definitely."
Then he added, "Little sister, do you have anything else to do? If not, your second brother has to go and attend to his business."
"I'm fine, Second Brother, please go ahead."
Just as Dongfang Yelei was about to leave, Dongfang Tinglan's voice suddenly rang out.
"Second Brother, do you know where Yi'er went? I heard he seems to have disappeared."
Dongfang Tinglan suddenly looked at Dongfang Yelei and said coldly.
Dongfang Yelei was taken aback, then realized that it might have been Elder Cheng who told them, and immediately thought to himself that Elder Cheng was really too talkative!
But now he had to smooth things over, so he said, "I don't know either. It just so happens that Die'er is getting married recently, so I rushed back from abroad."
I think I heard about this as soon as I got back, but I don't know if it's true or not. Maybe Yi'er went out to clear his head and didn't want anyone to contact him. My people are looking for him too, and I believe we'll have good news soon.
Dongfang Tinglan glanced at Dongfang Yelei, remaining silent.
Dongfang Yelei felt a chill run down his spine, but he could only force himself to remain calm.
He was certain that Dongfang Tinglan had no evidence, otherwise she would never have chosen to test him like this.
