Chapter 435: A Quick Decision
As night falls and the moon rises, it carries a hazy and chaotic feeling.
Yan Qingqiu stood in the yard and looked at the scenery. He saw the moon grass blooming in the flowerbed. This flower can also be regarded as an ornamental plant. In the dark night, as long as it is illuminated by the moonlight, it will emit little bright spots like fireflies, which is very beautiful.
Therefore, a lot of them are planted in the yard.
Yan Qingqiu was staring at this place at the moment and found something interesting.
An old man came over from outside the courtyard and asked Yan Qingqiu, "Why, hasn't the City Lord returned yet?"
"I guess he will be here later." Yan Qingqiu replied. He was not in a hurry at all, but he was a little hungry.
The old man said, "Then I have to tell them to keep the food hot, otherwise it will get cold soon."
"Please bring me two dishes so I can fill my stomach."
"Wait a little longer, maybe he'll be back." The old man gestured for him to wait a little longer, then asked Yan Qingqiu, "I say, Li Rongsen has become much smarter. Before, I just fooled him into signing, but now it's no longer possible."
"How can they be the same? Before, he was the one who willingly pursued An Yan, but now he is not. He is the one being pursued." Yan Qingqiu said.
"Really? Our city lord still wants to chase him? I don't think it's necessary. I already have a suitable candidate in mind." The old man chuckled.
"What do you mean? Haven't you always been optimistic about Li Rongsen and even wanted to plot against him? Why have you changed your mind now?" Yan Qingqiu was a little surprised.
"I asked him to sign last time but he refused. I can't force him to do it," said the old man.
"You're so shameless." Yan Qingqiu sternly accused him, and then asked, "Who are you interested in?"
The old man was about to speak when he saw An Yan and Li Rongsen walk into the courtyard one after another. He hurried forward to greet them and said, "City Lord, you are finally back. I will ask them to set up the dinner immediately."
"Why don't you eat? You can eat first." An Yan said as she went back to her room.
Yan Qingqiu also followed and said, "The old man insisted on waiting for you."
The old man had already walked over and given some instructions to the servants, asking them to quickly bring up the food, and told others to bring up the washed fruits and place them in the house first.
"You haven't eaten either?" An Yan asked him and walked into the house.
"Of course I don't have anything to eat, and I'm waiting for you to join me." Yan Qingqiu said as a matter of course, then looked over at Li Rongsen and asked, "How's that Gu Zinan?"
"That's it." Li Rongsen replied and went back to his room to wash his hands.
An Yan had already gone to wash her hands and face. She felt hungry, and when she came out, she saw a pile of dishes on the table.
She also found that the table in her house had been changed from a round table to a large rectangular table, so that more dishes could be placed on it.
The old man said, "I specifically asked them to replace the table with this long pearwood table."
“Even the three of us can’t finish all these dishes.”
"It's not a pity to save it. The subordinates will naturally take care of it." The old man signaled An Yan not to worry, he had made arrangements.
"This won't do. We can't always let people eat our leftovers." An Yan thought this was inappropriate and ordered, "Pick out some vegetables first."
The old man nodded and did as he was told.
An Yan asked again: "Where is Bai Yucheng? Has he eaten yet? How is he doing now?"
"He has already eaten. I will not neglect him. I have even ordered two maids to serve him." The old man reported everything to An Yan and added, "I also had the medicine pool cleaned again."
"Yes, to avoid drug leakage." An Yan thought that this matter was handled properly.
When Li Rongsen heard about this, he said, "Early tomorrow morning, I will go to Quhe with Yan Qingqiu to buy pearls."
"Okay. I'll trouble you guys then." An Yan chuckled, picked up a chicken leg for Li Rongsen, and said, "Here, eat this and build up some muscle."
Li Rongsen didn't dare to pick it up and eat it. He just said, "There's still some in Yan Qingqiu's bowl."
An Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, then passed one to Yan Qingqiu and said, "Eat it."
"Hey, the chicken legs were all eaten by you two. What will the city lord eat? Give them all back to me." The old man standing aside and watching was very unhappy. The best part of the roast chicken he had worked so hard to have someone make was the two legs.
Li Rongsen and Yan Qingqiu were about to return the chicken leg when they heard An Yan say, "Don't do that. Eat it all."
The old man frowned, and saw a man running in from outside, saying, "Oh no, that Mr. Bai has been vomiting blood, and I don't know why."
When An Yan heard this, she threw away her chopsticks and bowl and immediately ran to Bai Yucheng's house.
Bai Yucheng didn't know what happened and vomited several mouthfuls of blood, all of which turned into a pitch-black pool.
An Yan hurried forward to feel his pulse, and raised her palm to send energy to his heart chakra. Only then did she see that Bai Yucheng felt a little better, and his breathing began to stabilize, so she was able to lie down.
Yan Qingqiu and Li Rongsen also came here and found that the situation here was indeed not good.
"What's going on?" asked the old man.
The two girls standing in the room said, "We don't know what happened. He was fine just now. He even said he was thirsty and wanted to drink water. But after we poured him some water, we saw him like this. We panicked."
Bai Yucheng frowned. He tried his best to speak, but nothing came out.
An Yan looked around and found an incense burner on the table with smoke rising. She didn't think the smell was a big deal, but it wasn't good for a patient. She went over to the burner and asked, "Who ordered this incense to be lit?"
"This is a calming incense, used to help one sleep well at night. We saw that Mr. Bai was in pain all over his body, so we hope to relieve his pain and help him sleep earlier." One of the girls said tremblingly.
"Okay, I know the reason. Take the incense burner away. From now on, don't act on your own without my order." An Yan ordered them coldly.
The two maids immediately took the incense burner and went out.
The old man said, "Oh, I was so careless that I didn't notice it."
"It's nothing. Most people in West City light this incense before going to sleep. It's just a normal thing. But for him, it almost cost him his life." An Yan said.
"I'll pick two more obedient and clever ones to serve you. This is my dereliction of duty," said the old man.
"It's okay. Find two people to clean the house, and find someone to guard here. When he wakes up, give him some medicine, and then let him sleep. If he wakes up again, let him take the medicine again, and repeat this process." An Yan said.
"Okay, I understand." The old man nodded in agreement.
An Yan then walked out and returned to her room. After sitting down, she said to Yan Qingqiu and Li Rongsen, "Tomorrow, you must come back tomorrow. This matter cannot be delayed. His condition is very bad and he can only hold on for a few days."
"Is it that serious?" Yan Qingqiu frowned.
"Beichen is determined to kill him."
"This bitch is so cruel and ruthless." Yan Qingqiu sneered and said, "In my opinion, we should find a way to get rid of her and not give her any chance to cheat people again."
"Let's wait until Bai Yucheng wakes up. We also need to ask Beimo what he thinks. After all, Beichen is his biological sister." An Yan said.
"I am quite familiar with Bei Mo. I will discuss with him and also talk about the next cooperation project." Li Rongsen recommended himself.
An Yan nodded, thinking that this method was feasible.
