Despite the heartache of losing her own flesh, Liu Ruyi handed a check for ten million to Yi Tianran, took the remaining three bottles of medicine, and left.
On the other side, as soon as she left, Yi Tianran handed the check directly to Old Madam Yi: "Grandma, this still belongs to the Yi family. Here you go. Although ten million is not much, it's still interesting to take a piece of her flesh."
“I’ll keep it for you; it will still be yours in the future,” Grandma Yi didn’t refuse, but just sighed, “This was originally yours, but you have to go and take it back yourself.”
"Grandma, don't blame yourself. You helped Mom leave the Yi family back then, you are our great benefactor. The one who owes Mom is Yi Hai, not you."
After comforting Old Mrs. Yi, Yi Tianran left with the little furball. On the way, she immediately inquired about Old Mrs. Yi's condition.
"Hmm..." The little furball frowned, its face serious. "This is a sign of poisoning, and it's a slow-acting poison. This kind of poison comes from the underground black market in X continent and is very rare. It seeps into the body little by little, first making your body feel tired, weak in your limbs, and lethargic, and then your organs gradually fail... until finally you die."
Upon hearing the last part, Yi Tianran's eyes suddenly turned cold, and a strong and terrifying killing intent emanated from her body.
She had always known that the Yi family were wicked beasts, but she never expected them to go so far as to poison her!
You just couldn't hold back anymore?
Who could it be?
Six years ago, after she left, the old lady moved back to her old house and lived alone. So how did that person administer the slow-acting poison? Could it be... that there was a traitor among the old lady's accomplices?!
Right now, we need to get rid of the poison in the old lady first. I'll have to call and urge Zhuang Yizhan later. The goddess is already in China, why did she fly over here?
...
As soon as Yi Tianran returned to the Fu family home, Huaihuai happily jumped into her arms, "Mommy, you're finally back! I thought you had run away with the little furball again!"
The word "again" is used very cleverly.
"How could that be!" Yi Tianran picked up Huaihuai and rubbed his chubby little face against him. "Didn't I tell you that I promised I wouldn't leave easily?"
She wouldn't leave until she got the information she wanted, at least not in the short term.
"Hmph!" An unpleasant snort suddenly rang out, and Fu Qingru walked over with a cold face: "Isn't that because your promises are completely unreliable? You abandoned your frail and sickly son for many years, failing to provide them with any sense of security. This is your failure as a mother!"
Thinking of how Huaihuai had sat at the door all afternoon, waiting for her to come back with longing eyes, Fu Qingruo felt both heartache and intense sadness.
Upon hearing this, Yi Tianran lowered her eyes. Huaihuai's illness was something she had never anticipated.
"Thank you so much, elder sister, for being by Geng Geng and Huai Huai's side all these years and raising them so well." A sincere smile appeared on her face. "I will also do my best to fulfill my responsibilities as a mother in the future."
Seeing her like this, Fu Qingruo couldn't bring herself to say anything more to blame her.
Fu Qingruo initially intended to use the pretext of making Yi Tianran her assistant to make things difficult for her and order her around.
Later, she discovered that this woman was adept at handling both public and private matters, fully demonstrating her abilities and leaving no room for criticism.
If she really were an assistant, Fu Qingruo would want to award her a gold medal.
But unfortunately, she is also Geng Geng and Huai Huai's mother. Her incompetence over the past six years cannot be resolved by this little bit of performance.
Thinking of this, Fu Qingruo continued to give orders without any politeness: "Yi Tianran, it's almost noon, go and prepare a lunch."
Upon hearing this, the little furball, who was studying the antidote in the living room, suddenly froze, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground with a "clatter".
"Are you sure you want me to do this?" Yi Tianran blinked, her expression ambiguous.
"What, are you so precious that you can't even cook once?" Fu Qingruo thought she didn't want to do it and deliberately made a sarcastic remark.
Seeing this, Huaihuai, who was standing to the side, said very considerately, "Auntie, if you want to eat something delicious, let me do it. My cooking skills are amazing, even Daddy says it's delicious!"
Fu Qingruo was used to the three little ones always taking sides whenever she tried to order Yi Tianran to do something, so this time she prepared her words in advance, "Huaihuai, I know your cooking skills are amazing! But, you've been separated from your mommy for so many years, don't you want to try her cooking? Little Maotuan gets to eat mommy's loving meals every day!"
Upon hearing this, not only did Huaihuai's eyes light up, but even Genggeng glared at the little furball with envy, saying, "Second brother, you are so lucky."
"..." The little furball's lips twitched violently. It seemed to have thought of something terrifying. It shuddered with fear and muttered, "I'm willing to give this luck to you."
Fu Qingruo then turned her gaze to Yi Tianran and said arrogantly, "Besides, if you want to win a man's heart, you have to win his stomach first. Aren't you trying to get close to my brother? I'm giving you a chance to show yourself."
Yi Tianran smiled and clenched her fist. "It's been a long time since I've had a chance to show off my skills. Since everyone is so eager to see me perform, I'll gladly accept."
After saying that, she hummed a little tune and walked briskly into the kitchen.
Fu Qingruo didn't expect that she wouldn't cause any trouble this time; she was smart enough to know her place.
The next second, the little furball cried out "Ouch!" and clutched its stomach, looking uncomfortable. "I suddenly have a stomachache and want to go back to my room to rest."
"What's wrong, little fluffy ball?" Fu Qingruo suppressed her arrogance and stepped forward with concern. "Are you in a lot of pain? I'll go get the doctor right away..."
"No, no need! I can treat myself. The current situation is probably due to indigestion from eating too much this morning. I want to go upstairs and lie down for a while. I won't eat lunch." With that, the little furball ran back to its room in a flash, patting its chest with lingering fear.
Downstairs, Geng Geng and Huai Huai looked puzzled.
They all ate the same amount of breakfast, so why was he the only one who ate until he was stuffed?
But they didn't think too much about it. They were excited to soon have the chance to eat their mom's newest dishes!
An hour later, the food was served.
