The old lady stood up excitedly, then stumbled and fell back into the chair.
Yuxue isn't a man, so why was he poisoned? Could it be that the person who poisoned him not only knew the Qian family's secret, but also Yuxue's special nature?
No!
Impossible. That flame mark only appears after the age of fourteen. Even the Qian family wouldn't be so resourceful as to know who it is so quickly.
She had to find out who could have done such a terrible thing; it was far too serious.
Looking up, she saw the probing look in Qian Youxue's eyes. She hesitated whether to tell Youxue the secret of the Qian family so that Youxue could be on guard.
“Grandmother, Youxue knows that Bowen isn’t sick, he was poisoned, right?” Qian Youxue wanted to test how much her grandmother knew.
The old lady was struck again, instinctively grabbing Youxue's hand and saying with a heavy heart, "You heard everything that day, didn't you?"
Qian Youxue hadn't heard anything; all her guesses were just a blur. Now it seemed she was right to be confused, so she simply pretended to know and nodded.
The old lady must have been heartbroken knowing that Youxue had found out about such a cruel thing. She didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only hug Youxue and say, "You've suffered so much, Youxue!"
“It’s not bitter, it’s all in the past. Youxue still has her grandmother’s love and you, that’s enough for Youxue. Once Youxue has mastered her skills, she will definitely cure your chronic illness.” Qian Youxue tried hard to suppress the pain in her heart so as not to make her grandmother sad again.
The old lady was about to say a few more words when she heard Mei'er's loud voice from outside the door: "Master, you can't go in, the old lady..."
Oops!
Dad's here!
Qian Youxue hurriedly pulled out a porcelain bottle from her body, poured out a Rejuvenating Pill and swallowed it, then put the silk scarf on her face.
"Take Youxue out of the inner room first." The old lady instructed Granny Chen to take Qian Youxue away first, as she was still not sure if her son's feelings had really changed.
Qian Youxue bowed to her grandmother, and was pulled into the inner room by Granny Chen. She then walked out of the inner room and around the back corridor before finally leaving her grandmother's courtyard.
Granny Chen escorted the young lady to the door and kindly advised, "Although the young lady is different from before, you still need to be careful. After all, the people in the Qian family are too complicated."
"Thank you for your care, Granny Chen. You must also take care of yourself." After saying that, Qian Youxue handed Granny Chen a porcelain bottle, smiled mischievously, and whispered, "This is a good thing. It can effectively enhance spiritual power. You can only take one a month. There are ten here."
Granny Chen's eyes lit up with excitement. She was about to thank them when she saw someone walking towards her. She swallowed the words she was about to say and instead spoke a few polite words in a pretentious manner.
Qian Youxue stood there watching Granny Chen's figure disappear. Reluctantly, she was about to leave when she turned around and saw Aunt Liu standing in front of her with Qian Muxue.
"Mu Xue greets elder sister!" Qian Mu Xue was as well-behaved as ever, and unusually, she bowed to this young lady.
Qian Youxue nodded indifferently, glanced at Aunt Liu, and said calmly, "If you want to pay your respects to Grandmother, there's no need. She still refuses to see anyone."
"You're not going to see me either?" Aunt Liu asked, somewhat incredulous.
"Youxue just arrived, but her father is inside. If you don't believe me, you can go in." Qian Youxue had nothing to say to the mother and daughter. She had heard from Yunhe that Qian Yingxue had been punished by her grandmother and hadn't come out yet, while that girl Xiaomian had been sold to a brothel.
Yunhe told her that Xiaomian had drugged her to buy time. If someone hadn't come back to report and her grandmother hadn't sent someone to bring Yunhe back, who knows what other terrible things might have happened.
Qian Yingxue has harmed her time and time again. Now, she has no need to tolerate anything anymore, and naturally, she doesn't need to give Liu a kind look.
