“I have taken the gift…” Stunned, Luo Fei was lost in wonder.
As soon as Luo Fei finished his words, he looked at the box in the old lady’s hand. It was very similar to the box he had gifted to Gu Yiyi. However, Luo Fei had brought the Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruit together with him when he had left the Luo family. Why would there be another one in the old lady’s hand?
Feng Ruqing narrowed her eyes, Qin Chen’s words flashed through her mind. She suddenly realized something. She walked to Qin Chen and whispered to him, “Did you do this?”
“If you like it, I could do it more often in the future.” Qin Chen smiled, brightly.
“There is no need… I don’t want anyone around me to get hurt.”
Fortunately, Feng Ruqing was here this time. Otherwise, Gu Yiyi would have died.
“Mother… the thing in your hand is…” Luo Fei stared at the box, dazed.
“I thought you want to give this to Young Lady Gu? Originally, I wanted to put a few needles on your bed to stab you, but I found this thing underneath your bed. Why would you put a spirit herb under your bed? No wonder you forgot to bring this with you.” The old lady snorted.
‘The spirit herb was under my bed?’ Stunned, Luo Fei did not even notice that his mother had said that she wanted to stab him with needles.
‘When did I put a spirit herb under my bed?’ Luo Fei was lost in wonder.
Luo Fei took the box and opened it before everyone’s eyes.
A baby shaped glistening fruit laid inside the box and a sweet-smelling aroma lingered in the air.
“What?” Qian Kun s.n.a.t.c.hed the box from Luo Fei’s hands, a look of disbelief and shock crept into his eyes.
“This is the real Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruit.”
It turned out that the old lady of the Luo family had sent over the real Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruit that Luo Fei wanted to gift Gu Yiyi!
Why would there be two Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruits? Moreover, one of it was highly toxic.
Luo Fei’s hand trembled. He did not know what was happening.
Could it be that Luo Fei’s mother had known what happened to Luo Fei and had bought another Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruit in order to save him?
That was impossible! She could never get a real Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruit in such a short time.
‘Why would there be two Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruits?’
Now, everything was clear. Someone wanted to harm Gu Yiyi and make the Luo family a scapegoat. It was such a good trick that killed two birds with one stone.
However, why would that person put the spirit herb in Luo Fei’s chamber? Rumor had it that Qin Xiaoyue had moved into the Luo family recently and was staying together with Luo Fei.
At this time, everyone stared at Qin Xiaoyue’s face, as if wanting to find something in her face.
Stunned, Qin Xiaoyue’s mind went blank. Her eyes were fixed on the spirit herb in the box, her heart skipped a beat.
“That is impossible! The Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruit should not be in the chamber. I have…”
Qin Xiaoyue had buried the Thousand-Odds Ginseng Fruit.
Before Qin Xiaoyue could finish her words, she quickly came to her senses and realized what she had just said out loud.
As the night wore on, the courtyard was eerily silent.
Every word that Qin Xiaoyue had said echoed in everyone’s ears for a long time.
Luo Fei could not believe what he had just heard and stared at Qin Xiaoyue.
Even when Luo Fei had found out that Qin Xiaoyue had lied to him about the Grandmaster Hairong, he had only felt disappointed. He did not lose his mind as he was doing now as he knew that Qin Xiaoyue had cheated him into marrying her. Now, Qin Xiaoyue wanted to harm the entire Luo family.
