Or perhaps the smell was simply something someone came into contact with and that stuck to their skin.
I've checked everything I eat and drink, and there's nothing wrong with it. I really can't figure it out.
Seeing her mother's expression suddenly change, Tuanzi didn't show it. Instead, she secretly reached out and held Ye Wanying's hand. Then, when Ye Wanying looked over, she smiled sweetly.
Seeing her son's sweet smile, Ye Wanying felt a surge of tenderness. Her precious son was just too sensible!
Wait...drinking?
It seems I haven't checked everything completely.
At this moment, Ye Wanying dared not show too much, nor could she say it directly, for fear that what she guessed would become a fact.
But we can't just let it go like that.
What if it's true?
The unlucky one will definitely be someone else, but one's own family.
With so many commanding officers getting into trouble in their own homes, even if the poison wasn't administered in their own homes, the impact would be enormous, possibly even devastating.
"Sweetie, come here." She beckoned to her son.
The little one immediately came closer: "Mommy?"
Ye Wanying hummed in agreement, then whispered something in the little one's ear in a voice only the mother and son could hear.
The poison of the gourd vine only takes effect when ingested; physical contact will not cause any harm.
Now, the only people in the whole house who are least likely to arouse suspicion are the children.
Ye Wanying would never risk the lives of other children, but her own son, though young, was incredibly clever.
After listening to his mother's words, the little boy seemed to think for a moment before nodding softly to Ye Wanying and whispering, "Yes, Mom, don't worry, Tuanzi understands."
He secretly gave an OK sign.
"Okay, be careful, okay?"
...........
Tuanzi didn't act immediately. Instead, she waited for a few minutes before coaxing her friends, who had finished eating, to play with the toys.
When it comes to playing with toys, children certainly won't refuse; three or four little ones immediately get off the table.
Just as she was passing by the cabinet, Tuanzi tripped and fell. Due to the impact, something on the cabinet fell to the ground with a thud. It was a half-open tea canister, with some tea leaves spilling out and landing on the ground.
Gao Dan was the first to react. She didn't know how she did it; one second she was sitting there, and the next she was already picking up her fallen son.
"Where did you fall?" he asked.
The little guy shook his head: "No, no, I just fell down a little bit, it doesn't hurt, Dad."
Although the son said it didn't hurt, Commander Gao still checked him over and was relieved to find that the child was not injured anywhere.
Tuanzi chuckled as he hugged his father, and that was all that everyone could see. But in reality, the little boy had already quietly relayed to his father what his mother had asked him to tell her, and he even grabbed a few tea leaves that had fallen to the ground.
Who is Gao Dan?
Hearing his son's words, his expression didn't change for a second.
He gently laid the little one down on the ground: "Didn't I tell you to watch where you're going and be careful? Doesn't it really hurt?"
The little boy shook his head: "It doesn't hurt."
At that moment, Ye Wanying waved to her son, saying, "Tuanzi, come here, let Mommy take a look."
The little guy immediately ran from his dad to Yingying: "Mom, it's really okay." He snuggled into his mother's arms. Of course, no one saw that the tea leaves he was holding had already been transferred to Ye Wanying's hand.
