Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As soon as Lu Xiang finished speaking, a servant rushed down from upstairs and shouted in a panic, “Second Miss! Bad news! The head of the family… The head of the family has fallen into a coma again!”
Initially, everyone thought that it was strange. Things were already like this downstairs, but Old Master Lu had not come downstairs yet. Now, the servant actually said that Old Master Lu was unconscious again!
Lu Xiang felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She stood rooted to the ground in a daze. Her ears buzzed. After calming down for a long time, she said with trembling lips, “What did you say? My father is unconscious?”
The doctors from the Medical Association hurriedly went upstairs to diagnose the old master. After a while, the doctors went downstairs and determined that Old Master Lu was poisoned. Lu Yan also lost his eyesight because of poison.
Qiao Xi grunted coldly. “Lu Yan has been poisoned! Old Master Lu has also been poisoned. Who exactly did this? There are so many bodyguards around the Lu family’s main residence. Who could’ve entered the main residence and poisoned them? The Lu family must’ve done too many bad things. Even the fairies in the sky couldn’t stand it anymore, so they punished them! Ah Zheng, don’t you think so?”
Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and smiled. “Xi Xi, not only are there bodyguards but there are also surveillance cameras.”
What he meant was that if the Lu family wanted to investigate the culprit, they could start with the surveillance footage. Perhaps they could find clues. However, Qiao Xi was not nervous at all. She had already dealt with the surveillance footage.
“Sigh! Even if we catch the culprit, it’s meaningless! Lu Yan is already blind. It looks like he’ll go crazy soon!”
Gu Zheng nodded and said, “The person clearly knows that there are so many bodyguards and surveillance cameras around the Lu family’s main residence, yet they still dared to poison the people in the main residence. This means that they’re completely confident that they won’t be discovered. Xi Xi, what do you think?”
Qiao Xi was speechless. She kept having the feeling that this bastard was secretly mocking her.
Seeing that she was silent, Gu Zheng did not continue teasing her and looked up at Lu Xiang.
At this moment, the main residence was in chaos. Lu Xiang’s mind was buzzing. Today, the direct descendants of the Lu family were going to pay respects to their ancestors, but now that the head of the Lu family was unconscious and the heir of the Lu family was blind, the entire Lu family would fall into Gu Zheng’s hands. The old master had to wake up!
The doctors told Lu Xiang seriously, “Old Master Lu was poisoned around 11 o’clock last night. It’s been so long, and the poison has already penetrated deep into his body. He can’t wake up for the time being. Young Master Lu and Old Master Lu were poisoned at about the same time. Both poisons are very strong, and it’s been a few hours since they were poisoned. It’ll be very difficult for them to recover.”
Gu Zheng looked at Qiao Xi who was beside him and lowered his voice. “Xi Xi, Old Master Lu and Lu Yan were poisoned at 11 o’clock!”
Qiao Xi widened her eyes and pretended to be surprised. “11 o’clock! Everyone was busy for the entire day, so they would have long been resting at that time. That person must have planned it out seeing as they poisoned the two Lu family members while everyone was asleep!”
Gu Zheng bent down and whispered into her ear, “Although there are many surveillance cameras in the Lu family’s mansion, there’s a small path that doesn’t have any.”
Qiao Xi cried out in surprise. “So that’s how it is! I didn’t expect that in order to save money, the Lu family didn’t install any surveillance cameras on that small path. We must get them installed after this. If the culprit manages to escape, we won’t be able to catch them!”
Song Shiyu: “…” ‘I really have to give it to you two! One of you was the one who poisoned, while the other was the one who deleted the surveillance footage, yet you two are still pretending to be innocent!’
“Are you very happy that the culprit managed to run away?” Gu Zheng asked with a smile.
Qiao Xi’s heart trembled, but her expression did not change. “How is that possible?! A dangerous person appeared in the Lu family’s mansion. It made me very afraid as well! It’s best if we catch them as soon as possible. The people who were poisoned today are Lu Yan and Old Master Lu. Perhaps it’ll be us tomorrow. It’s really too terrifying!”
On the other hand, the doctors from the Medical Association had already examined the two patients and shook their heads helplessly. “Second Miss Lu, we’ve given Chairman Lu medicine. The poison in his body has temporarily stabilized, but we can’t guarantee when he’ll wake up. As for Young Master Lu’s eyes, they need long-term treatment. He won’t be able to recover in the short term.”
Lu Yan sat on the sofa, his face pale. His lips were pursed tightly. When he woke up in the morning and opened his eyes, it was dark in front of him. At first, he thought that the sky was not bright yet. It was only when Lu Xiang came over and knocked on the door that he knew that he could not see.
Suddenly falling into endless darkness, Lu Yan could not remain calm. The gentle mask he had maintained for many years finally cracked.
Usually, Old Master Lu and Lu Yan were the ones in charge of the Lu family. Now that one of them was blind and the other was unconscious, Lu Xiang was instantly at a loss. With her ability, she could not manage the Lu family at all. She did not know what to do for the ancestral worship ceremony today.
