Ning Meng knew she had made a mistake and had said something she shouldn’t have. She was afraid that Madam would misunderstand Sir again.

  “Madam, that pill really isn’t poison. Sir wouldn’t harm you,” Ning Meng explained hurriedly.

  Qin Shu glanced at Ning Meng. Of course, she believed that Fu Tingyu wouldn’t harm her.

  How could a man who was willing to give up his life for her harm her?

  She just wanted to know why the man would do this.

  Or was there something he was hiding from her?

  “Madam, Sir truly loves you. I dare to bet my life on it. That pill is definitely not poison.”


  Seeing that Qin Shu did not speak, Ning Meng thought she was suspecting Sir. Their relationship had finally improved recently. Ning Meng could not let Qin Shu return to the way she was and hate Sir because of the harmless pill.

  Qin Shu ignored Ning Meng and walked out of the kitchen.

  Qin Shu walked quickly on the way out. She wanted to ask Fu Tingyu if he was hiding something from her.

  Or, had she accidentally hurt him again?

  But, his injury should not have anything to do with her eating this thing, right?

  Then why?

  The more she could not figure it out, the more anxious she became.

  She quickened her pace and walked into the living room. Then, she went up to the second floor.

  As she walked up the stairs, she suddenly remembered that Gu Yan had come tonight.

  He had visited without any warning. He must have had an appointment with Fu Tingyu.

  Also, Gu Yan had studied medicine and his medical skills were outstanding.

  Many medical schools had wanted to invite him to teach, and even foreign medical schools had sent invitations.

  But very few managed to invite Gu Yan.

  What was he doing at Bright Garden tonight?

  Qin Shu had already walked to the door of the study room. She looked at the tightly shut door and wondered if Gu Yan had left.

  Was he here because the man had been injured again?

  Or was he injured in the first place but was hiding it from her?

  Qin Shu looked at the doorknob. She thought about it and decided not to knock. She just walked in.

  She held the doorknob and slowly twisted it. She pushed the door open and realized that there was no one in front of the desk.

  She walked in and looked at the lounge. She found that the door was also closed.

  Fu Tingyu must be in the lounge.

  At this time in the lounge-

  Gu Yan observed Fu Tingyu’s expression and saw that his forehead was covered in sweat. His face was also a little pale. Gu Yan frowned. “How do you feel?”


  “I’m alright. I’ll go to your house next time.” Fu Tingyu gritted his teeth and endured the strange feeling. He was afraid that if Gu Yan came too often, the girl would grow suspicious.

  “Alright.” It didn’t matter where they were. It was all the same to him.

  Fu Tingyu said again, “Give her a check-up in a few days.”


  “Yeah, her problem isn’t big. She should be fine after taking that bottle of medicine. It’s mainly you. You got stabbed to save her and the poison entered your blood directly. It’ll be troublesome to clean it up. If it doesn’t succeed this time, it means that those herbs are essential.”


  Gu Yan said thoughtfully. Deep down inside, he thought to himself that those herbs were extinct and could not be bought on the market.

  Qin Shu, who was standing at the door of the lounge, heard the conversation between the two people in the lounge and her heart lurched.

  So it really had something to do with her.

  Did he get poisoned when he had saved her?

  Why was she always the one dragging him down?

  If it wasn’t for her, he wouldn’t have been injured.

  Then, the poison wouldn’t have entered his blood.

  He wouldn’t have suffered so much to test the antidote.

  Qin Shu’s heart felt like a sharp blade had cut off a piece of it. It was so painful that she couldn’t breathe.

  At this moment, the door to the lounge suddenly opened. The people inside were stunned.

  The study room suddenly became unusually quiet.
