“Go and help me take care of Luo Ying now. Seeing her happy is enough for me.” Lu Zhao stretched out and grabbed the wrist of his other hand tightly.
Pain spread throughout his body. The poison had invaded his body.
He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his arms that were covered in bruises.
Sirius almost cried out in shock. “Didn’t you say that the medicine could help? What’s going on?”
Wen Yu walked out of the room. “This poison could take effect at any time, even with the medicine. You must control your emotions.”
“l see.” Lu Zhao slowly straightened his body. This medicine would also cause unbearable pain. It was as if hundreds of needles were piercing his body.
“I’ll go now.” Sirius could not bear to see his friend in pain.
When he went downstairs, Lin Jin had just moved her luggage up to the third floor.
Lu Zhao had given her a massive suite. It had a kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedroom.
Two people guarded the door. This did not look like a marriage, but more like imprisonment.
Lin Jin sneered. “What are you looking at? I’m the mistress of the Lu Residence now.”
They did not get along well.
Sirius looked at Lin Jin coldly. For some reason, he was beginning to miss Luo
Ying.
Lin Jin looked like a triumphant villainess. He did not like her one bit.
“What difference does that make to me?” Sirius said coldly.
Lin Jin shut her mouth.
They arrived at a dessert shop that Luo Ying frequented and decided to help Lu Zhao buy some desserts for Luo Ying.
Luo Ying usually liked to eat very sweet candy and cakes. Her taste was like that of a child’s. He chose a few cakes that looked good and walked out of the shop with them. He didn’t realize that someone was stalking him.
He went to the villa, not expecting to see Luo Ying there.
He walked to the doorstep and set the bag down.
Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly felt someone behind him pressing something that felt like a gun against the back of his head.
“Who is it?”
The other party’s gun was slightly raised. It was the behavior of someone who didn’t know how to hold a gun. He was also shorter than him. He started calculating his chances of winning.
But the next second, a woman’s cold voice interrupted his thoughts.
“You’re sneaking around my house with snacks. I wonder if you’re trying to break into my house or pursue me?” Luo Yings voice was lazy. She was a completely different person from the weak Luo Ying in the room just now.
Sirius looked at Luo Ying in surprise. “What are you babbling about? Why would I pursue you?”
“No, you won’t.” Luo Ying put down her gun. “I’m faster than 1 look. You’d better not think about escaping.”
Sirius sighed. “What do you want to know?”
“Do you even need to ask? All I want to know is if Lu Zhao hiding something from me. You were the one who told me about Lu Zhao’s mother last time. Just spill the beans already,” said Luo Ying.
Sirius frowned. “Even if I tell you, it won’t solve the problem.”
Luo Yings heart skipped a beat. She had guessed right. “He was poisoned, right? It’s a two-part concoction.”
“Yes.” Sirius nodded with difficulty.
He did not plan to hide it from Luo Ying. He actually did not understand why Lu Zhao was hiding it from her.
Luo Ying had been devastated by his rejection.
After these few incidents, he knew that Luo Ying truly loved Lu Zhao.
The last thing he should do was to break her heart.
“l hope you won’t let Lu Zhao worry by returning.” Sirius sighed. “He doesn’t want you to be sad. After all, there’s no way to get rid of this poison.”
“What will happen if the poison acts up?” Luo Ying asked.
When the poison took effect, it would induce hallucinations, madness, and finally turn them into a distorted caricature of what they once were.
Sirius shook his head. He didn’t want Luo Ying to hear this.
“Do you not know, or are you keeping it from me?” Luo Ying was a little surprised.. “Didn’t Wen Yu tell you?”
