Jin Fangguo glared at Jin Yan, "I'll deal with you later!" Then he asked curiously, "An'an, what kind of medicine did he take?"
Lu An'an's eyes were cold. "That's a Gu poison."
"insanity?!"
The group was greatly surprised.
Lu An'an nodded and continued, "That kind of Gu can paralyze a person's nerves and make their muscles as hard as iron. It can indeed make Grandpa Jin stand up, but the price is that his blood essence will become the Gu's nourishment. Once the blood essence is absorbed, the person will also die. Moreover, this Gu is very domineering. After the host dies, it will immediately look for the next one. Any slight touch is enough to become the opportunity for it to transfer."
Jin Fangguo was horrified. He dared not imagine the serious consequences if he had actually taken the drug!
Jin Yan felt a chill run down his spine. He exclaimed in shock, "Where did he get such a dangerous thing?!"
Lu Xunran also felt a chill run down her spine. This person was brought by her grandmother, so what was his relationship with her? Did her grandmother know about all this?
Fu Zhiyan's expression was solemn, clearly also thinking of Old Madam Lu and Lu Rongyu. He frowned as he looked at Lu An'an, his tone serious: "Do you think it has anything to do with...?"
Lu An'an shook her head. "I'm not sure, but being able to get in touch with the old lady means she's definitely not simple."
[In the original novel, it's only mentioned that Lu Rongyu and Grandma Lu recommended Li Hao, which helped Grandpa Jin get back on his feet. Later in the story, until Grandpa Jin's death, the author never explained Li Hao's whereabouts, nor did he mention whether Grandma Lu and Li Hao ever met again. I'm also unsure if he had any connection to Grandma Lu.]
Lu An'an recalled the plot and felt more and more that the plot might be incomplete.
[There seem to be many plot holes left unfilled. I'll ask customer service later if they've cleared them up.]
The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and an indescribable heaviness filled the living room.
In the silence, a cell phone suddenly rang.
Lu An'an snapped out of her thoughts, glanced at the caller ID, and answered it.
"Hello, Dad?"
Lu's father's gentle voice came through the phone line: "An'an, are you done with your work?"
"It's almost over, what's wrong, Dad?"
Mr. Lu paused, somewhat helplessly, "An'an, Grandma and Lu Rongyu came to the house. They said they need to talk to you. Come back when you and Xunran are done."
Lu An'an was taken aback, then sneered inwardly.
[I haven't even gone to them yet, but they've come to me on their own.]
