Ali took out a bag of dried plums from a hidden pocket in his sleeve and said, "I brought these from the academy. They were given to me by my classmates. Father, have one first and see if it tastes good."
Zhou Dafu has always enjoyed these snacks. Upon hearing this, he grabbed one and put it in his mouth without thinking. As he ate, he said, "Delicious! This is even better than the candied fruit Mu Bai brought."
After saying that, he took all the dried plums that Ah Li still had.
Seeing this, Ah Li picked up the medicine and said, "Father, it's time for you to take your medicine too."
Chow Tai Fook disliked the bitter taste of the medicine, but since Ah Li had brought it, he put a dried plum in his mouth and drank the medicine in one gulp.
Ah Li also noticed that the black line behind Zhou Dafu's ear had disappeared, indicating that the poison had been neutralized.
That Li Gan was an antidote that Ah Li took out from her spatial storage. Not wanting it to be too abrupt, she used a trick to conceal it.
After taking his medicine, Chow Tai Fook grinned and then ate a dried plum.
When Mu Bai came over with a bag of candied fruit, he looked at the empty bowl and said, "Has Master Zhou finished his medicine?"
Chow Tai Fook nodded and said, "Yes, I've finished drinking."
Ah Li looked at the bag in Mu Bai's hand and said, "My father said your candied fruit is delicious. May I try some?"
Mu Bai tightened his grip on the bag of candied fruit in his hand, and then said, "Of course."
Ah Li walked over and tried to take the candied fruit from Mu Bai's hand.
Just then, a figure rushed over, grabbed Ah Li, and retreated towards Chow Tai Fook.
"Shen Zhiyuan?"
Zhou Dafu felt that this person was like a gust of wind, carrying Ah Li to him.
Shen Zhiyuan, however, held Ah Li in his arms and said, "That person is dangerous."
"What?"
Ah Li looked at Shen Zhiyuan. Did this person find out too?
Shen Zhixing, Shen Aotian, and Shen Jiaojiao all arrived. Shen Zhixing even snatched the bag of candied fruit from Mu Bai's hand, saying, "This person's thing is poisoned."
Shen Jiaojiao pointed at Zhou Dafu and said, "You, you'll be the death of me sooner or later because of your mouth."
Zhou Dafu was confused, so Shen Aotian came over and said, "You may have been poisoned. This person is trying to poison you."
"ah?"
Chow Tai Fook wasn't very convinced.
Without wasting any words, Shen Zhixing poured out the bag of candied fruit and searched Mu Bai's body for many small medicine packets.
Mu Bai's face was pale. He wanted to argue, but when he saw Shen Zhixing soak the candied fruit in water and a series of white bubbles appeared, he asked, "How did you find out?"
Everyone in the Zhou family was incredibly stupid; no one noticed his little tricks, and he was about to succeed.
Now all his efforts have been in vain, and he is unwilling to accept it!
Shen Jiaojiao was too lazy to explain, so she had someone drag the man out and force-feed him all the medicine.
Not long after, the man began to convulse, foaming at the mouth, and soon stopped breathing.
Shen Jiaojiao even scolded Zhou Dafu for being senile, and Zhou Dafu obediently accepted the scolding.
Ah Li kept looking at Shen Zhiyuan. When he suddenly appeared, he gave her a very familiar feeling.
Ahri thought about it carefully, and realized that he... he was the one who saved the original owner of this body back then!
After he rescued the original owner, she was in a daze and didn't really look at the man properly.
Just now, when Shen Zhiyuan suddenly appeared and hugged her, the person in that memory gradually became clear.
Oh, it's you.
Ah Li stared blankly at Shen Zhiyuan.
Shen Zhiyuan thought Ah Li was frightened, so he hugged her and said, "It's alright, your father will be alright too."
At this moment, Shen Aotian walked over to Zhou Dafu, took his pulse, and then said with a puzzled look, "You're not poisoned?"
Zhou Dafu was initially shocked to see Shen Zhiyuan holding Ah Li, but upon hearing this, he exclaimed, "I wasn't poisoned? Then you just wronged an innocent person?"
Shen Jiaojiao also found it strange. They had clearly seen the person pouring poison powder out the window and throwing away some candied fruit that was covered in poison powder.
The poison not only killed Wangcai in the backyard, but also several passing ants.
That's why Shen Zhiyuan was in such a hurry just now, and he backed away while holding Ah Li.
Ah Li nestled in Shen Zhiyuan's arms without saying a word. Little did she know that Shen Zhiyuan's family would suddenly appear. Originally, she had intended to retaliate in kind.
She also detoxified him because the poison was harmful to Zhou Dafu's health.
Zhou Dafu hummed, took out a dried plum and ate another one, saying, "You're quite surprised I wasn't poisoned?"
Shen Aotian simply had Zhou Dafu switch hands again, and even rolled his eyes, saying, "You were poisoned, but the poison has just been neutralized."
Zhou Dafu laughed and said, "I just ate that bowl of medicine and this dried plum. Are you going to say that the dried plum is the antidote?"
After listening to what Zhou Dafu said, Shen Aotian picked up the empty bowl and smelled it; the medicine was normal.
Zhou Dafu then handed the dried plum to Shen Aotian, saying, "Check this out too; it might be the antidote."
Seeing that there were only two dried plums left, and that the person had only let him look at them once before taking them back, Shen Aotian said, "Maybe that person saw that Ah Li had returned and was afraid of being discovered, so he detoxified you."
Zhou Dafu muttered, "Now that the person is dead, it's your turn to say what they have to say."
Shen Jiaojiao stepped forward and said, "Then go to the backyard and check on your Wangcai, it's all hard!"
Zhou Dafu's expression changed drastically. He sat up abruptly, put on his shoes, and ran outside, crying out, "My Wangcai!"
